Thread: So. . . How do YOU fly?

Last night in my DILD I flew on the back of a horse, not a unicorn or something but just a big, fat, brown pony.
It was surprisingly good

I first float a bit above the ground and then glide in the air o__o

I used a jetpack

I just do it.
That's it, no strings attached.
You could imagine it like Superman or Neo from the Matrix, except you don't have to lift your arm or have to jump for it to work.

I do it dragon ball z style

(I.e. just lift myself and fly)

I think that flying comes spontaneously. You don't need to try. It just happens. In my case I finds myself levitating in the middle of a dream, sometimes jumping 15 or 16 meters and that is total impossible, otherwise I could have gone to compete in the Olimpic Games in London. Because i have much more non lucid dreams than lucids, then most of my flying expirencies have occurred in non lucid dreams. My theory is that sensation of being levitating is related to those vib rations that sometimes we feel in different stages of dreaming. I you can remember a dream that happens during those stages, probably you could remember that that you have been able to fly in dreams. Indeed sometimes I have tried to fly in lucid dreams to no avail.

I lean forward looking at the ground pick up my left leg and jump on my right then I look forward and maybe use wings

I look at the ground and watch it move away then I look forward and make wings just for show

It really varies, sometimes I grow wings, sometimes I get rocket boots. But in my most recent lucid dream, I focused on the clouds, and a tornado with air plane inside it appeared. I jumped on the plane and flew around.

Flying for me has always been effortless, but getting back on the ground is sometimes harder! The last time I flew I just rocketed up straight into the sky at a billion miles per hour, couldn't get back down, and woke up.

If i won't to fly i just make my self start falling form the sky, like sky diving then i start flying

I usually just jump into the air and immediately start ascending. I tend to fly Neo Style.

Whenever i look in a mirror, wings would just grow out of my back (I happened to grow Angel Wings). Then i just spread out my arms to extend the wings and of course just jump in the air to go on a flight. My wings move whenever my arms move. (Meaning, that when i flap my arms, my wings flap as well to gain altitude). Flying is indeed a wonderful experience.

I just jump up or off a building into flight. I look where I want to go.. such as a tree and I go. When I first started flying when I was younger I constantly fell out of the sky. In one dream though I was at a flying camp that had really tall building about a mile apart and you would jump off different levels and try to get to the other side. By the end of the dream I was jumping off the highest level and making it to the other side. I was happy. I also transform into a hawk at times and that helps me fly. Also, if I want to go somewhere really far away, while I'm flying I imagine where I want to go and then a purple disc thing will show up and I grab it and it sucks me into it and shoots me out where I wanted to go.

I wear button-up shirts (but unbottoned) and hold then out as I run really really fast until I obtain lift. Then I shapeshift into a plane or something.

That's the easiest way for me. Though I have toyed with riding winged creatures, winged machines that I pump like a well,or just straight out flying. But if the control is in MY hands, i crash. I require a winged creature to ride, a shapeshift, or the outside control of a shirt providing lift, much like batman's wings or something haha. Flexible, but goes solid when it needs to.

I like to make jets of fire in my hand that I use to thrust myself into the air. Sometimes I can also fly by focusing on an object in the sky/ceiling like a tall building or cloud, then just imagine the object getting closer.

Gives me an idea.

Grappling hook.

I fly in nearly all my LD's. I usually just jump and take flight straight away generally looking at the sky not always though, I find if I concentrate on the ground I will fall down and haft to take flight again. my flying is sometimes uncontrollable either falling back down to the ground or flying at uncontrollable speeds. one time I shot up into the sky with tremendous pace past space into old black and white TV shows being broadcast and old radio stations being audibly played, then into a black void, were the flying stoped spontaneously and I was floating very slowly rotating in the fetal position.

although depending on my lucidity it varies, In one of my dreams I have spent what seemed like an hour flying with perfect precision, levitating cars, tearing down skyscrapers with my mind, teleporting talking to dream characters all with no trouble at all.

so yeah I'd say control depends on your knowledge and experience, not so much technique. but most importantly your level of lucidity and how much you desire it, how much you will yourself... to fly.
