To drown in a shipwreck reveals a feeling of distress, which has lasted some time, due to a project that has not prospered or a personal relationship that has failed, leading you to believe that “all is lost.” Normally, a dream of this kind indicates that you have taken on too many responsibilities. Therefore, it can be interpreted as a warning that you should rest or take a short break. You have reached the limits of your strength and you need to recharge. (See Also: WATER, BOAT, SHIP)
[1]The image of a shipwreck is often connected to the feeling of failure, as is the Breach in a dike; while, on the other hand, it may point to a positive development.
The distance to the Water—meaning to feelings and needs—is removed.
A shipwreck can also mean an outburst of emotions, where the dreamer is acknowledging his passions.
[2]The implication with a shipwreck is that some difficult experience has already happened.
The event is likely to have been emotional in nature and has thrown you off in your daily routine in a considerable way. As a result of emotional turmoil, you are finding yourself in new territory that must be explored.
[3]To dream of seeing or being shipwrecked implies that you are struggling with inner discord or are finding it challenging to communicate your emotions. You may also not be prepared to deal with these aspects as of yet.
[4]Misfortunes, to see others shipwrecked in your dream denotes that you will rise above them (Gypsy).
[5]You will suffer a dangerous illness, but it will not prove fatal.

[9]A certain omen of disaster.
[10]To dream you suffer shipwreck, the ship being overwhelmed, is dangerous to all, except those detained by force; to them it signifies liberty.
