Military
Dreaming about the military suggests either that you have at sometime served in the armed forces and therefore it is about your associations with your experience, or that it is connected with some form of group discipline or rules. Maybe facing a battle or conflict.
Sometimes it refers to the attitudes you have developed to fight and move toward some type of breakthrough or facing fear and winning. See soldier; sailor
If the dreamer is in a ship on the high seas, the dream may suggest sailing through emotional issues of divorce or other personal loss, bravely and dutifully.
