In my dreams, I often find myself flying in air at will, flying anywhere for any length of time, mostly to the places I have never been in real life. What does it all indicate? Is it common to all? Does it have something to do with my interest in high jump? I’m curious to know the possible interpretations of flying dreams.
Dear Manoj, I hope you will meet with present day scientific interpreters of dreams. Ok, it may be related to your interest in high jump where you take off, fly and land on cushions. Far better to have flying dreams than to dream of failing exams that stressed students usually have. Don't you forget your dreams when caught up with the business and busyness of the day? My simple inference is flying dreams are fine, maybe even entertaining.
Friends, I cannot belittle dreams. I have biblical records about the dreams of Pharaoh (and the baker and butler) that were interpreted by Joseph, and the dream of Daniel the prophet besides other dreams. Have a nice day, and a nice dream.
Freedom my dear @Manoj! Freedom according to my interpretation! Different interpretations of flying dreams are attached!

Dear Prof Ljubomir, thanks for a nice link. So let me add on some possible meanings for Manoj. Hopefully for each paper that's accepted, we all have flying dreams.
Possibilities:
Interesting Manoj…u brought ur feeling to words and you have some resources to even interpret those...I Ifeel that dreams are subconscious manifestations of what and how we feel about things-life, people around us, wishes, aspirations..
It is an interesting question Dr. Manoj. In essence, during sleep, we all either be happy or experience a nightmare. Both dreams are lying and flying.
What do people truly know about the underlying causes of dreams? During dream states, I travel at many different 'unknown/known' places and also meet a lot of people. Occasionally I fly, even feeling gravity forces. I might name it 'ecological-safe traveling with little or no pollution'....
Thanks a lot Dear Cansani for sharing with us your own dreaming experience. As regards mine, they are not about astral projections (if I understand its meaning correctly) as I don't dream out-of-body kind of flying. nor are they lucid dreaming; they are very normal dreams (not aware of the fact that I'm dreaming). And I don't practice meditation.
Do you feel such dreams could be indicative of some future events in one's life?
Dear Prof. Jacic: the links you provided are very interesting. Thanks. I tried to interpret it for myself in light of your response, but couldn't find out "FREEDOM from what". trying further.....
Dear Miranda, Its certainly better to have these flying dreams rather than the falling dreams. I wont mind having these dreams every night; they are really pleasant.
Dear All, thanks a lot for your involved- and feel-good responses. I still wish to know if these flying dreams are common to all. Do you have similar experiences?
Dear Dr Manoj and friends, I really wonder why there should be downvotes at all on this thread, and no reasons given. Perhaps the downvoter has no night time dreams, and no aspirations and dreams to pursue. Some of us value RG, and want to make it a GOOD research site; and we don't downvote. We are willing to discuss and agree to disagree on things that are neutral. But not on things like Ethics.
