Flying Dreams are often Lucid Dreams

Mystical Blaze, as do other websites on dream interpretation, aligns flying dreams with lucid dreams saying that flying dreams are often precursors to lucid dreams. Here’s an excerpt from Mystical Blaze explaining the concept:

We feel on top of the world and are soaring to great heights in our minds when we fly. Flying dreams are very often a precursor for lucid dreaming, a dream state in which we are aware we are dreaming and can manipulate the outcome of the dream. Even in a dream state, most of us are aware that we can’t fly in normal life, thus on some level a flying dream likely coincides with dreaming lucidly for the vast majority of the population, though most awaken unaware of the fact that they were engaged in a lucid dream.
