It means dealing with influences that hold us down such as self-doubt, worry or anxiety. It can also be interpreted as gaining independence and realising your potential or a particular skill or talent that you have.
What does it mean when you dream of flying?
You are free spirited and want to travel the globe.
Escape,freedom,soaring above your problems on the ground/in your life. Sort of like doing the superman thing in that movie with neo.
It symbolizes multiple things. The first could be your desire to be free from a situations and just escape from your life and enjoy the world around you. If you're on top of a situation too could be another interpretation of flying. Literally, it could represent how much you want to visit the world.
You wanna fly with the eagles get a taste of freedom poop on other peoples unsuspecting heads be free and lift you wings to the air! (Just kidding) Janey knows all (Bow down)
