Missed a Boat in Dream

Missing a boat in a dream is representative of you missing something you regret. Your subconscious is telling your mind that there was an opportunity that you missed, or a chance that you should have taken but didn’t. Your mind is acting on how you feel, because you most likely are upset at yourself for not taking this chance. The only way to let go is to come to terms with what you missed, and understand the way your life is with, and without this change.

Another common interpretation of a missed boat in a dream is that you are having doubts about a decision or project. Feelings of regret and worry that you have overlooked an opportunity. Fear of missing out on something good. Disappointment at not having the courage to pursue your goals. Doubt that you can reach a goal or overcome an obstacle.

In a dream, if you are unable to progress or get to your destination by boat it indicates that you are feeling stuck in life and not able to move forward. You may be experiencing frustrations, confusion and loss of direction. The boat symbol is an image of movement, so if the journey is unpleasant or impossible it may represent feelings of being trapped in your current situation.

Lastly, missing a boat in a dream signifies that the chance for success will have to wait. Achievements will have to wait. If you miss the boat, then you will never reach your destination, or you won’t get there until it’s too late. For instance, missing the deadline time is an experience we’re all familiar with and can be just as frustrating and disappointing as missing a boat in a dream. Or the time when you are due to marry and you don’t turn up on your wedding day is an example of missing a boat in a dream.

  1. I dreamt I was in the Navy still and was meeting my mom to take her on a tour of my ship. She arrived with her friend and as I was telling a funny story about something related to the ship, she started talking to her friend about something else. I recall being hurt so badly that I just stood up and walked off. After a 10 minute walk I decided to buy some treats and went back to find them gone. I searched the ship and then around the dock for an hour or longer, but never found my mom or her friend. I then was anxious about missing ship’s movement, but was unable to find my ship again.

    I’ve been thinking of my mom recently, she passed in 2019. We had an estranged relationship for a decade, I live in Honolulu and she was in Nashville. I had a premonition one month before she died that she was going to pass soon, and went home to see her for a few days. She died a month later. I have regrets for not letting go of bad feelings, and missing out on time with my mom. She wasn’t perfect, but she was my only mom. I feel a great sadness.

  4. I dreampt I got off the boat and went to the local market to buy food that I like and while I was searching, it took me a while so by this time I panicked that I was late to get back on board. I rushed back and saw that the boat had sailed. It was just one big boat surrounded by a body of light blue water.
