Take flight Dream Meaning
Dream interpretation
If you dream of taking flight, it may symbolize some stress or problems in your life. Such dreams often indicate feelings of anxiety, fear, or unrest. You might want to escape from certain situations or feel afraid of facing challenges. Dreaming of flight reflects your mental state and can help you prepare to confront your issues.
Ibn Sirin
Take flight — Islamic interpretation
From Imam Muhammad Ibn Seerin's Dictionary of Dreams According to Islamic Inner Traditions — entry "Take flight" (page 427).
Ifone sees himself turning and running away in the face of a battle in a dream, it means that he may contract a venereal disease, or suffer from syphilis. Taking flight in a dream also may mean reverting to what is proper. On the other hand, it may mean falling into sin to earn God's wrath and the despise of the common people. If one sees himself taking refuge in a group of people, enticing them to fight in a dream, it means that he is adventuring with his head by walking the path of evil, or by backbiting others. (Also see Escape from danger; Running away; Turning)
Note: Islamic dream interpretation depends on the dreamer's circumstances and state. This is a general guide drawn directly from the source book.
