In this dream, mom and I were on a cruise.  I remember it was just the two of us and we got stuck in a really bad storm.  The boat was rocking really bad and at one point, turned over 90 degrees - onto its side.  I was worried about drowning, but the ship sat back upright.  Everyone was screaming and scared, including us.  Then we were trying to get out of the ocean quickly, so the captain took us full speed into the Baltimore port and we were scared we were giong to crash, but we came safely to a stop and couldn't wait to get off.

Interpretation:

To dream that you are on a cruise represents some emotional journey that you are going through. The dream may also be a pun on "cruising" through situations in your life with ease and little effort.

If you dream of a cruise ship, then it suggests pleasant moods. 

If you are sailing across the ocean, then it signifies new found freedom and independence. You are showing great courage. If the ocean is rough, then the dream represents some emotional turmoil. You are doing your best to handle life's ups and downs.

Since my past couple of dreams have seemed to tell me that I have too much on my plate and need a break, I'm happy to see one that is telling me that perhaps I'm doing okay.   I feel that the best way to look at this dream is that I am trying my best to handle the ups and downs of life.  I am beginning to feel more that this may have to do with my current health concerns and possibly Houdini.  The fact that my mom is in it could mean I am still dealing with her death, or perhaps I just really wanted to be able to take her on a cruise, like she always wanted to go.
