What Does It Mean to Dream About Flying?

Flying dreams can be the most exhilarating, liberating and instantly gratifying dreams you can ever have. These dreams are classified as “lucid” suggesting that the dreamer is aware that they are dreaming. In a lucid state the dreamer may gain some amount of control over the dream characters, narrative, and environment. Some lucid dreams are spontaneous or self induced as others practice to obtain the feeling of flight.

The symbol 'flying' may represent a current challenge or transition. The setting (beach at night) suggests context around your social or work environment. Feeling embarrassed and hopeful hints at mixed emotions. Consider where you are speaking or watching in waking life and what you’re avoiding or pursuing.
