Dream Interpretation: fly in a dream, flight - what is a dream

Rumor has it that flying a child’s dream means that the baby is growing. But such stories are not uncommon for adults. To understand what such a dream means, it is not enough to look into the dream book - you can fly in a dream for a variety of reasons. Interpretation of such night dreams depends not only on dreams, but also on the emotional state, gender, social position of the dreamer, and much more.

Interpretation in different dream books

Dreams about flying cannot be interpreted unambiguously, in large part because the meaning of the dream changes depending on the nuances of the plot:

• In itself, flight symbolizes freedom, spiritual or physical, as well as everything that is somehow connected with it: career successes, difficulties in communication, barriers in life, marriage and romantic relationships, etc.
• If the flight was dreamed of by an adult, then it must be interpreted as personal or spiritual growth.

Falling in a dream during a flight is a bad sign, indicating a defeat or misfortune that will occur due to the fault of the sleeping person. You can change your fate for the better if you wake up before a collision with the surface.

• The feeling of lightness during the flight, according to the interpretation of Dmitry and Nadezhda Zima, means a smile of fate. A series of successes awaits ahead, the main thing is not to miss your happy chance. The need to exert effort for the flight, on the contrary, means the futility of all endeavors.
• According to Miller, the endless space surrounding the dreamer during the flight predicts an unsuccessful marriage.
• Dream Interpretation Hasse interprets the flight in two ways, depending on the dreamer's state of health: such a dream predicts success and happiness to the healthy, and the transition to another world for the sick.
• According to Tsvetkov’s dream book, flying under the very clouds means the dreamer’s unreasonably high self-esteem.
• The dreams in which you flew away from your native places are interpreted by the Modern Dream Book as a warning about the infidelity of a loved one (or simply that he is not worthy of you).

The direction of movement plays an important role:

• The flight up marks quick success, joy, good luck in business - in a word, any positive changes.
• Flying down, on the contrary, is a bad sign, foreshadowing problems.
• Take off very quickly and high - to unexpected happiness or climbing the corporate ladder.
• If your upward movement is accompanied by fear, then you doubt the choice of life path. It is necessary to change plans or, conversely, to show more firmness in their decisions.

What does a woman dream about?

In dreams about flight, a lot depends on the dreamer's gender.

Such a dream, a woman had a dream, has several interpretations:

• According to the Imperial Dream Book, flying means achieving inner harmony and the ability to find a way out of a difficult situation.
• Sigmund Freud dreams of flying explains how the subconscious fear of losing your good name.
• However, if a woman does not fly herself, but sees a soaring man of the other sex, this indicates her dissatisfaction with sex and the desire to meet the man of her dreams. Although in some cases, such a plot may be evidence of impaired gender identity.
• Flying between the domes of temples in different cities predicts a difficult struggle with ill-wishers for something that is especially important for the dreamer: for example, for one’s love, beliefs, good name, the health of loved ones, etc.
• To be shot on the fly - to various intrigues that may interfere with success or wealth.

For a man, the interpretation will be different:

• The imperial dream interpretation interprets flight as a loss of connection with reality and a loss of vitality.
• According to Freud, such a dream means concern for their sexual exploits or excessive pride in their masculine power.
• Planning from one roof to another, according to the Islamic dream book, means marriage to another woman.
• According to the Modern Dream Book, flying on white wings over green spaces means for a man future success in love affairs and career.
• The image of a flying woman, on the contrary, symbolizes the desire to lure a lady to bed and the fear of possible failure.

Fly day, night

The time of day in a dream may not be exactly the same as in reality. This "desync" always has a symbolic meaning.

In addition, it is important to pay attention to whether day or night is in a dream, what are the weather conditions, which of the stars are present in the sky:

• The rays of moonlight in which you bathed during the flight mean that you need to pay more attention to real life. You are in captivity of a beautiful dream, which can be realized only by making significant efforts in reality.
• Flying at high altitude on a clear day symbolizes an insufficiently thoughtful approach to life. You need to become serious in order to succeed.
• Did you dream of the night and the clouds among which you soared? In this case, you should moderate your ambitions a little. The pursuit of fame prevents you from adequately assessing your capabilities.

A night trip to the skies can also symbolize passionate, and possibly forbidden, love.

You need to pay attention to astronomical objects.

• Flying near the sun, moon, asteroids, etc. Miller's interpretation is interpreted as an omen of any global cataclysms.
• The dream of a dark night sky strewn with stars is of the same significance.
• If you just saw the sun during the flight, then the dream is favorable and promises a successful resolution of the dangerous situation.
• Traveling in space means losing contact with reality. It can be just excessive enthusiasm for one’s fantasies or a serious mental deviation.

All atmospheric or astronomical phenomena themselves are of great symbolic importance, so any of them must be taken into account during the interpretation of dreams.

I dreamed of flying with and without wings

Wings - an ancient and very important archetype, symbolizing the soul or, in a narrower sense, an emotional state:

• Wings growing right in a dream - to soon happiness.
• Black wings, according to Miller's dream book, mean that you will have to give up on someone who is dear to you.
• White, on the contrary, means well-being and spiritual growth.
• If in a dream you look back and notice white wings with surprise, then an unexpected gift of fate awaits you.
• Flying on artificial wings portends the purchase of new technology.

If you happen to fly in a dream without wings, then there can also be several interpretations:

• In general, such a plot means a kind of victory, a successful use of their capabilities.
• To fly up in a dream without the help of wings - to success. All your undertakings will come true in the best way.
• If such a dream is accompanied by a feeling of anxiety, then the meaning changes to the opposite: a dream warns you of an imminent danger.

What does a recurring dream mean?

Any stories that have been shot more than two times in a row are harbingers of any changes in life. These may be clues of the subconscious or messages from higher powers, and they must be treated with all attention.

Often a dream about flying can mean the desire for freedom. You are weighed down by the routine and try to escape from it in fantasies.

• Psychologists interpret the plot regularly repeated in a dream as clues that the subconscious gives us. Most often, such dreams speak of any health problems or a hidden feeling of dissatisfaction. In order to avoid negative consequences, you need to analyze your dreams and change your waking behavior.
• If at night you often see yourself falling, then you do not need to wait for defeat. Such dreams speak of your inescapable fear of failure and self-doubt. You can get rid of nightmares by changing your relationships with loved ones (for example, by securing their support or simply sharing your worries).
• A dream from Thursday to Friday is prophetic and warns of events that will occur in the near future. If the plot of the flight is repeated on these nights, you need to understand what exactly in your real life does not happen as it should.

Flight over land, river, sea

Depending on what surface you see beneath you in a dream, the interpretation may turn out to be both happy and portendous of misfortune.

Flying in a dream above the ground is an unfavorable sign, portending a difficult period in life or health problems.

Try to remember what exactly you happened to soar:

• Over the ruins - to the bitter news.
• Over muddy water - to the troubles that will fall upon you because of someone's hostility.
• Over a forest or any other greenery - a difficult period lies ahead, however, problems will soon be resolved in a way that is successful for you.
• If you soar in the air over the sea surface, then in reality you will soon be waiting for a new love, for which you will be ready to make sacrifices.
• If dead trees are visible below, the path to success will be difficult and thorny.
• Flying over the village speaks of the desire for fame and high self-esteem.
• Whirling over the mountains, according to the Islamic dream book, predicts the dreamer gaining tremendous power (not necessarily worldly).
• Flying over the open sea means that in the near future you need to be careful in any important matters.
• The dream of traveling low above the earth warns that all the advice you hear in reality will lead you to failure. You need to listen to your own intuition, and not to other people's words.
• A low-flying flight, in which you almost touch the surface, can also be a warning of a difficult moral dilemma that will put you in an awkward position.

Flying in a dream on a broomstick

Such a dream is directly related to Christian views:

• A flight on a broomstick interprets the Wanderer’s dream book as a warning about any temptation that has not yet been realized by the dreamer.
• It can also mean excessive pride, which must be humbled to avoid disaster.
• According to Felomen’s dream book, a broom as a vehicle is a symbol of the fact that you have become an instrument in someone’s interests. Such a dream means that you need to overcome your fears and stop avoiding difficulties - the only way you can solve your problems.

Other “mythological” plots are possible:

• Flying on an icon, according to the Veles dream book, means the protection of higher forces in a difficult situation and unexpected luck.
• To fly in a chair, according to the wanderer’s dreambook - to a change of official position.
• On your own bed - to a sharp (and unexpected) change in life situation.
• Traveling with a bird or a flying carpet portends a long trip.

But flying on an animal, as in the case of a broom, means "witchcraft", that is, adherence to some sinful idea or just base passions.

By parachute

Such a flight in itself is evidence that the work that the dreamer took up would be incredibly difficult.

However, depending on the development of the plot and the chosen dream book, additional interpretations are possible:

• According to the "2012" dream book, a parachute is a symbol of protection, the opportunity to start a dangerous business and win. Denise Lynn offers the same interpretation.
• A universal dream interpretation interprets such a dream as an advice to stop counting on someone else's help in important matters.
• A torn parachute means unnecessary risk. You should think about additional insurance or completely abandon an unreliable plan.
• But Miss Hasse interprets this subject as a harbinger of the disease.
• Skydiving can also mean a new romantic hobby that will completely transform your ideas about sex.
• An oriental dream interpretation interprets such a dream as a warning that your adventures add gray hair to those you care about.
• The parachute does not open, despite all your efforts? Your fears will be in vain, a risky venture will succeed.
• The dream book “From A to Z” interprets the same dream as a warning about an imminent disaster, which can be avoided only by abandoning all planned personal events.
• A safe landing means happiness in love affairs.
• The dream in which your parachute is caught on a tree, and you yourself are entangled in slings, means a serious setback in business.
• Landing on a desert island after a plane crash - to surrender. In real life, events will soon occur that will force you to make any concessions to your opponent.

Soar indoors

Dreams of flying in a confined space symbolize constraint, dissatisfaction with one's own destiny. Some external obstacles hinder your spiritual development and interfere with a full-fledged existence.

Flying indoors means striving to throw off the shackles, find your own path in life. The walls are a sign that you are not sure of the correctness of the decision.

Flight by plane, helicopter

Air travel on a variety of mechanisms belong to auspicious dreams:

• If you dream of flying on an airplane, then in reality you need to show a little patience and perseverance: the desired goal is already close.
• Hot air ballooning means that there is someone in your environment who is not indifferent to you.
• If you dreamed of flying in a helicopter, you need to be careful while driving: there is a risk of an accident.
• Flying through a hang glider portends a fun and interesting pastime.
• On the airship - the ability to perform a feat.

It is important to remember that the same dream for different people will have different meanings. When interpreting, one must take into account not only the standard meaning of symbols, but also personal experience, phobias and preferences, and emotional assessment of sleep.So, for a person suffering from fear of heights, flying on a plane can mean the same thing as for everyone else - falling down.
