Hello. I am new to this site. I wanted to ask for help with flying during lucid dreams. Once I realize that I am dreaming, I immediately attempt to fly but I have found that I can only do so from my own bedroom window. So if I am able to return to my bedroom from wherever I am in the dream, I can then fly out my window, but then I discovered that I am not truly flying, but only hovering. The hovering lasted for many lucid dreams until I established a rope that is anchored (somehow) and I can pull myself along to simulate flying, but now I can only fly (by pulling myself along the rope) to the corner of my street. Then the dreams end. I don't understand how I can remain so tethered even after I have reached lucidity and gotten so far. Do you have to learn to fly in a dream? What am I doing wrong? Has this ever happened to anyone else?
