Overwhelming, uncontrolled emotion in a dream is read as feeling that has been held back too long finally spilling over. Dreams give it a stage so the pressure can ease.
Where in your waking life have you met something like this lately?
My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
