You know what a tide is, don't you? Twice a day, the level of the sea rises and lowers because of the gravitational pull of the moon. When the water rises it's called flood tide and when it lowers, leaving tidal pools and shallows behind, it's called ebb tide. You want to launch your ship when it is high tide or flood tide because there is lots of water to go under it; at ebb or low tide the water is shallow and the ship could bottom out. Shakespeare, or rather Brutus in his play Julius Caesar, is comparing our fortunes with the tide. When the tide is high, it's time to set sail. It's rather like "make hay while the sun shines" or "strike while the iron is hot" or "he who hesitates is lost".
