What happens in the dream
- More broadly: you'll take on visionary ventures that won't succeed
- A balloon: blighted hopes and adversity; business of every kind will drop off
- Going up in a balloon: an unlucky journey
How you felt
- Exhilaration: the dream may reflect a longing to escape or rise above
