Free Dream Interpretations for You

A common dream is one of floating in the air. This is different from a flying dream where you’re soaring over the landscape. In this dream you’re merely hovering above a scene. What does this kind of dream mean?

It can mean that you’re detached from the event you’re watching. You may feel that you can’t influence or control the event so you’ve put yourself outside of it. This may mean that you need to think more deeply about the event and how your actions can influence it.

Another interpretation I’ve seen is one of relaxed waiting. You’ve become detached from the event and relaxed about it so that you’re no longer worried about it. This can be a good sign if something was stressing you out previously.

On a spiritual level, this can indicate out of body experiences or a premonition of death.

Interesting. Don’t remember dreams that much. In this one, I was floating and remember trying to move around by moving my legs but didn’t feel like falling just floating. Actually a couple days later I hear that mother-in-law is in the hospital with pneumonia, not breathing well and not eating…she’s afraid and won’t close her eyes to sleep. Hmmm

I hardly ever remember my dreams. I can think of maybe 2 or 3 that I ever have remembered. But the two I have most recently had involved me floating. In a room all the way up to the ceiling and I just kept moving forward through the room. I wanted to stop moving and come back down to the ground, but I wasn’t able to. It was horrifying… accompanied with really loud noises and uncomfortable emotions. It all started about 15 minutes into my sleep and lasted about 5 minutes.

Like Mike above, I dreamed of floating to the ceiling in a room, my den, and I initially tried to stay standing on the floor, but then just gave up and ending up floating to the ceiling and then floating around the room while at the ceiling. I don’t remember any noises, but it was very vivid and seemed very real to me. When I abruptly woke up, I looked around the room (I was sleeping on the sofa in the den), and wondered why I wasn’t at the ceiling anymore! I’ve dreamed floating dreams like this before, but it’s been a long time since I dreamt like this, until this dream. Thanks.

My dream started with me visiting a public pool. It was in an older renovated bldg. The walls were a nicely stained dark wood and the lockerrooms, while older in style were quite nice, clean, white tile. There were many pools and many people swimming and using black innertubes to float in. Most were just relaxing, the windows were open & it was nice outside & there was a deck & some outdoor pools. I went outside and saw my exboyfriend with his daughter (I don’t think he has a daughter currently) she was cute, in a mini-floating device with sunglasses & a hat on. He also had a dog with him, which I know he does have now. I stopped and lifted his sunglasses & said “oh look who it is!” I was on the phone to my current boyfriend & telling him. Then the ex & I decided to go to another pool. But in stead of walking inside we walked off the deck & floated alongside the bldg. We lost momentum and were stuck in the air. I had the dog and spun him around to give me some momentum & I made it to the next deck & walked in to the next pool.

I dont remember my dream… all i remember is being with a group of people and then i started to float. I kept getting higher and higher and i was scared that something bad would happen if i got too high. But everytime i tried to come down i would just foat back up

Throughout my life I have had dreams that I float. I see people and places. Once while I was still in highschool I floated and saw friends sitting on the floor drinking beer and my friend had on a red shirt. when I explained the scene to him the next day he was in disbelief at how accurate I was. Lastnight I had the same kind of floating dream except my dad was there (who is now deceased) I was in my daughters room and she couldn’t see or hear me. I kept screaming at her and my dad kept consoling me. The dream was so disturbing that I woke up in tears. I was in so much fear that I wasn’t going to come out of it this time. Anyone else ever have this? I really don’t think these are dreams anymore.

I dreamt of a kid from the rooftop of the third floor apartment I live in. In the dream, the kid (male) must have come from the rooftop except that there was no rope or anything and so he must have floated and then stopped right in front of my bedroom window and was knocking. Also, at the same time, dogs were barking/howling furiously in the apartment complex in my dream. I actually dreamt of the apartment complex I live in. What does this mean? I am very disturbed by it and felt very uneasy in the morning after waking up.

In my dream all I remember was feeling scared and how I didn’t want to float up in the sky. I just kept going up higher and higher up towards the sky and nothing could stop me. I would try to catch on to things and stop myself, but nothing could stop me from going higher into the sky. This is a reoccuring dream. I do not have these every night, however, I have had very similar dreams ( Same dream, different settings) quite a few times. What could this mean??

My dream was I was in an autorioum and I was on the stage and my little sister would tell everyone to close there eyes and me too and then she would say something i would begin to float in the air not touching the stage anymore it had last about 30 mins and then people would say a name and that was the next person to come to the stage. Well after everyone had there turn it was time to leave. So we leave and I call my fiance to come get me and he was saying I aint coming to get you. well he did anyways then i woke up. Well its kinda weird but me and him have been arguing over the same thing for 2 days and he was stressing me so hopefully this will a better day for us. I hope so.

I wasn’t dreaming. I was 1/2 asleep and floating on the ceiling when my boyfriend came in the room and I saw him. I thought I was in trouble for floating away like that but he didn’t see me. So I woke up got mad and went back to sleep.

I had a dream last night that angels lifted me up & helped me float & I was laughing….then, they threw me a gift of a plastic royal blue baby shoe & an action figure…it was the strangest dream I have ever had….an feedback on meaning?????

I regularly and more than not have lucid dreams about flying and floating.It’s never in a craft at anytime,just in my body form.It usually starts where i am in an area or place unfamiliar to me i.e never been there before and an awesome urge to just rise of the floor standing and float/fly starts.The dream is very real to me at the time.In order to fly or float,it’s like i must concentrate in order to do so.The more i concentrate about rising the higher i will do so.Also in the dream it’s like a feeling in my gut that enables me to either float or fly like a bird if you will.Are these dreams linked to anything?,do they actually mean anything?.All i know is that i am quite dissapointed when the alarm clock goes off and the dream ends.But i know again sooner rather than later i will be having these dreams again.I personally think it’s a look to the other side and maybe even a glimpse of heaven.Who knows?.But for the same dream to constantly occur on the regular basis that it does has me asking questions and wanton for answers.
Great forum by the way and i look forward to hearing from someone on this board soon regarding my dreams.

I have recurring dreams of being able to float - like a special power. I just lean back like I’m sitting - very relaxed and I hover in the air and use this also travel to where I want to go.

i have amazing dreams where im floating, i can control them. i do flips and twists, i can make my self go higher and lower. although sometimes i start to rise and have to wave my arms and pull myself back down. but they always have a weird tranquility about them. i used to have dreams where i could run and bounce of objects like walls and fences and float over buildings but now it has developed in to much more controled dreams of just placcid floating

Someone please help…why do I keep having this dream over and over…it terrifies me. I’m always floating one way or another and sometimes it’s just that i am lifting from the chair that i am in and it shouldn’t be so horrifing but it is…can someone please tell me what this means??others are more scarey and would rather not talk about…husband says i start to moan in my sleep and he knows i am floating and he wakes me…and i am floating…he can tell by the moaning now…dear god someone help me!

In my dream - I remember being in a green field with friends. I just wanted to get away so I started floating, as I was going down I pushed my self up until I reached up to the sky and just floated, felt so free…. This dream has happened before when I was young, now im having them again. I wonder what that means?

I began having floating dreams 6 months ago & have had about 4 or 5 of them. The 1st 2 or so were very frightening & then the next couple were calm & relaxing. Last night’s was scary again. In the 1st couple, I would begin to float away from my husband, like in a huge movie theater, but he couldn’t hear my shouts or see me. I floated around at the ceiling level trying to get back to him for awhile, then got further and further away as through a dark sky. I woke up crying. The next couple I just floated up into a daylight sky away from no one in particular, and they were very calming. Last night I was walking with a woman I didn’t know & began to float away, but she took my hands, holding me to the ground while even my shoes floated off my feet. I panicked, thinking she’d let go, but calmed down as I felt her grip tighten, then awoke. I’m going through stresses of different kinds, but can’t pinpoint which one is causing the dreams. They’re so real that when I awaken, I get out of bed & feel I could close my eyes & lift off the ground.

Last night, the most creepiest thing happened to me. This is the first time it happened except for one time when i was quite younger which was as creepy if not creepier. (I was being suffocated while I was floating in the dream and woke up not being able to breathe) Last night I felt as if my soul was being pulled out of my body and I heard a loud persistent noise/sound with my name being whispered repeatedly. I was watching my bf sleep at the time it happened. I held back tightly scared for my life but i kept floating. Luckily I didnt go to the ceiling but my whole body was raised several inches above my bed while my arms were clenching fiercely to my bed. I then yelled out “NO” and snapped out of it. Can anyone help me?

I was 14 when i was listening to music in the middle of the night then i started to feel like i was going up against the ceiling fan i remember yelling mom but no voice came out my mouth and I was going up and up towards the fan then I fell on the bed and looked around and it did not feel as it was a dream? Common a person can easily tell when they just had a nightmare , im not sure if it was a dream or real because I remember falling down then ran to my moms room.

my dream was like a dream inside of a dream. I was dreaming that I was dreaming… and inside my inside dream, I was floating(hope that makes sense to you). I was afraid and wanted to stop but everything I tried to grab hold of, I seemed to not be able to grasp it securely. I would stop in mid air and try to get down/land and wouldn’t be able to position my body in an upright position. I was always on my back except for when I would try to land then I would just spin and end up on my back again. There were people in my dream, but I can’t remember if they could see or hear me. Also, I seemed to be aware that I was dreaming of floating inside of another dream and was trying to wake up myself on the inside dream (hope that makes sense) what does this mean?

I often have dreams where I’m lighter than normal. I need to get somewhere fast, and so I hop, higher than normal, and float pretty far. Sometimes I’m outside and I can float much higher and farther, over roads, trees, buildings. If I’m inside, I’m only a few feet off the ground and am only going a couple yards at a time, maybe. But I am always upright. I’m not flying. I’m not scared of floating away. There is gravity, I will come down and land and push off and keep going to wherever I’m going. It’s so freeing for me, because in real life, my feet always keep me down. They pain me if I have to walk or stand for long periods of time. My husband loves to go hiking, and I can hardly ever go with him unless it’s a very short walk. I am a bit overweight, I’m sure that factors into it. But in my dreams, that’s irrelevant. I’m light, I hop, I float. I’m free…
