Along with earth, fire and water, air is one of the elements of nature. It brings change or carries things away on the wings of the wind. The African goddess Oya is associated with change and is praised when the wind blows. Air is a symbol of spirituality, wisdom and clarity. In dreaming, a breeze or wind may symbolize spirit and inspiration. On the physical level, human beings can not live without air. In this context, air symbolizes the life force.
In dreams, air may also represent a loss of connection with reality, especially if things are present that don't belong there, such as water creatures! To dream that you are flying represents freedom and the expansion of your spiritual development.
