Levitation (from Latin levitas "lightness") is the process by which an object is held aloft, without mechanical support, in a stable position.
Levitation is accomplished by providing an upward force that counteracts the pull of gravity (in relation to gravity on earth), plus a smaller stabilizing force that pushes the object toward a home position whenever it is a small distance away from that home position. The force can be a fundamental force such as magnetic or electrostatic, or it can be a reactive force such as optical, buoyant, aerodynamic, or hydrodynamic.
Levitation excludes floating at the surface of a liquid because the liquid provides direct mechanical support. Levitation excludes hovering flight by insects, hummingbirds, helicopters, rockets, and balloons because the object provides its own counter-gravity force.
Levitation (on Earth or any planetoid) requires an upward force that cancels out the weight of the object, so that the object does not fall (accelerate downward) or rise (accelerate upward). For positional stability, any small displacement of the levitating object must result in a small change in force in the opposite direction. The small changes in force can be accomplished by gradient field(s) or by active regulation. If the object is disturbed, it might oscillate around its final position, but its motion eventually decreases to zero due to damping effects. (In a turbulent flow, the object might oscillate indefinitely.)

Magician Dan White meets up with a Buddhist monk, in Nepal, who has the power of levitation. What do you think?
Dan A. Davidison explains the basis behind Grebennikov's findings and how certain insects really fly (levitate) linking how a spinning vortex creates a magnetic field counteracting gravity. It's possible that an electrostatic effect is occurring at the nano level as well. Dan A.

Judges Amazed: Levitation Magic Trick (America's Got Talent)
In the darkness I will shine, cast not shadows, nor define
I walk on water, float on air, there's no other to compare
I have this fascination, no cause for a deviation
It's called levitation
There's no cause to start and scream, nor rub your eyes,
this is no dream
Although I sit upon this chair, I rise and float up in the air
I have this fascination, no cause for a deviation
It's called levitation
Magnetic force, repel-attract, once it starts, there's
no turning back
I offer you this chance to learn, take it now
