flying dreams
Nocturnal weightless fantasies
Flying dreams are dreams in which the sleeper experiences flight, typically through their own power rather than in an aircraft.
Among the most commonly reported dream types, they often carry feelings of freedom, exhilaration, or escape.
In dream interpretation, flying dreams are frequently associated with desires for control, liberation from constraints, or transcendence of everyday limitations.
