Definitions and Mercury!

Some better definitions of Flying Dreams:

Flying
Dreams of flying are common and most people can recall having flown in a dream or two. There are many ideas as to what this means.
Some people believe that flying in our dreams can be an actual out of body experience, that we go to places on this physical plane as
well as into the inner planes (mostly the Astral). Edgar Cayce thought that Astral travel or "soul travel" might be a precursor to
becoming lucid in a dream. Carl Jung's idea was that in a flying dream we are expressing our desire to break free of restrictions and
limitations. We have a desire to be free and above all difficulties!

FLYING
Flying in a dream is not too unusual but not everyone has these dreams. Our bodies cannot fly so flying represents the part of us that is not limited by the physical body - the mind. Flying by yourself in a dream indicates you have a strong mind (ie. are very rational / intellectual). This ability to 'project' your mind means you can develop hypnosis and absent healing among other things. These abilities work through projecting your mind onto another. The down side is that the person has to be careful to not be too much in the head all the time. You can miss a lot of opportunities in life if you always rationalize things and never follow you heart.

Flying with a guide in a dream is different though and it indicates that you have the ability to project your mind into the spirit world and communicate with spirits. A guide in these type of dreams usually appears as somebody who is an instructor on how to fly.

This 'rational/mind/head' thing makes a lot of sense to me. Astrologically it would mean that all of us Flyers have a very strong Mercury (mind/wings!). My chart supports this, too.
