Dream:

I encounter a flying car, shown off by its designer, a recent design. It is meant to respond to thoughts... you just think of the direction you want it to go and it does. So anyone can fly it, doesn't need a trained pilot. I climb in the car and take off and head steeply upward and forward. I am concerned about hitting trees and power lines so I am careful. I go up the side of a mountain. Then I am not in the car any more, but standing on a long board. It's still flying, but lurching and barely under control. I come to a beautiful green field with kids there, near the top of the mountain, and land the board.

Then I seem to go over this in my mind, and I become aware it's not really a flying car, but rather a device that you use while you sleep to make you feel like you are flying in your dreams. The dream has lots of technical detail about how the device interfaces with your brain to make you feel like you are flying. I think, "Wait a minute, this is not a way to fly at all. It's all imaginary. And I'm fully awake now, so I must have been dreaming about flying."

Later in the night when I woke up I was startled to realize that I wasn't already awake -- I felt so sure in my dream that I was awake!

This dream tells of your over thinking things in real life. You got caught in all the technical details, thus you no longer have the feelings of flying free. Peace and beauty can be only found when you are free, and not bogged down with all the technical detail, involved in over thinking. Feelings are often smothered by over thinking and concentrating on the technical details.

Thanks, Thunder Bow. I definitely over-think things. I am wondering when in my life I feel free, feel like I'm flying. I feel bogged down so often in negative thinking, particularly visual thinking that just comes at me so vigorously it's almost like an attack. I think that the flying may represent a potential in me that my Dreamer Self is aware of but that I don't access very often consciously.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
