Flying in dreams is surprisingly common
Yes, people often dream about flying! It usually happens when we’re feeling free, powerful, or want to escape something. In dreams, our brains aren’t tied to real-world rules like gravity, so flying feels natural and fun. It can mean confidence, adventure, or just having a wild imagination.

During certain sleep stages, especially REM sleep, our brains are super active and creative. That’s when dreams feel vivid. We might imagine soaring over cities or floating like a superhero. It feels real in the moment because the dreaming part of the brain is in charge, not the logical one.
