If you have difficulties to keep flying, it shows a lack of power in controlling your own situation. You can fight to stay in the air to keep the course. Things like power lines, trees, mountains, may prevent you to further your flight. These obstacles symbolize specific difficulties or people who stand in your way in reality. You must determine who or what prevents you to move forward. It may also be an indication of lack of confidence. One must believe in themselves and not be afraid!
