      Hello people

      I have been lucid dreaming occasionally for at least 5 years. Although my control was pretty lame and it was only about once a month. I am getting better and better because I look around at this website a lot, last saturday I had TOO MUCH engine power while flying Right now I want to dream lucid because I want to go on wild adventures (with Gintoki from the Gintama anime by my side ) and it's just tons of fun. All the things you can do, like fight people with awesome abilities, fly, visit cool landscapes, have sex.. Last year my interest peaked because I wanted to listen to music and play violin in order to improve my musicality in real life.

      Things I struggle with.. I would like my ld's to span over a longer amount of time. No crazy amounts where the dream time is significantly longer than real time but if they last 30 minutes on average I would be extremely pleased Stabilization is something I want to work on too, because the more stable the better they are and the longer they last. Not having too much control is not so much of a disaster since I can still look around and do great stuff. Things I tried to stabilise are reality checks. I don't remember calculating in my dreams although it is my main RC in waking life, but I do look at my hands and touch stuff in my dreams, not getting too excited sometimes prevents loss of awareness/control/stability. So the main thing I would want to improve in this class are vividness and length.

      I don't know my LD count.. At least 15 in the last year but it could be more it's a pretty wild guess. I have had about 4/5 ld's in LESS than the last 2 months.. It is not eight, I know but I am pretty confident and if I really push it I am sure I can squeeze out about 3 of 4 in a week from now. Is it enough or should I get some more expierience before joining advanced classes? I will also start a dream journal tomorrow morning because I am going to bed now.


      Sweet dreams, Gin-san

      Hey dutchraptor!

      i'm Rey. i've been learning (and teaching actually) lucid dreaming for a year and a half. I own a blog about lucid dreaming in indonesian. i share this knowledge of lucid dreaming to everyone i know. i keep trying and trying to make lucid dreaming more famous and keep teaching them.

      However, last 2012 lucid dream finally showed itself to me, and i had lucid dreams more often. More often, more vivid, ..better. but i was not as motivated as i was. i didn't practice my lucid dreaming, i retired for a month (january). Finally, in early february, i am finally motivated again, to learn lucid dreaming. now, i have approximately 1-2 LD a week. but they are short. like the person above me, i want to try to make my LD become longer. I, almost never, control my dream. in my last lucid dream i tried to fly, but i fell, and i woke up. 3 days ago i tried to summon a portal, but it wasn't there. i tried to fly but i can't. I jumped, but i was pulled back to the ground.

      i think my problem here is with the dream control and stabilization. I need longer and more vivid dreams. but not just that i still have to improve my LD number. but i have the thought that, maybe the problem is in the stabilization, and controlling the dream. (oh ya, i usually remember to stabilize, but since january i always forgot).

      so, put me in!
      Rey.

      Hi I would like to join I regulary have LD since 2008. Last year i had about 60 LDs. Why am i dreaming? I like it and i like body feeling when i'm in LD. The main problem its the quality of the picture. Sometimes it isn't quite clear and i should wait and when i wait i can loose Lucid or awake. I have, of course other problems in LD, but it isn't so important. I think i can stand 8 weeks of work, but my ld lives their own life and sometimes i cannot have even one lucid per month. but i hope i will have enough.

      Heya!

      Very nice initiative to offer your knowledge to others! I am very thankful for all the information I have gathered from trolling these forums for a while, but I feel I want to take the next step with my dreaming.
      So... I have about 1-2 LD's per week certain periods, and other times I don't have more than 1 every month. My recent increase is due to, I think, using SSILD. Previously I have had moderate success with MILD and also a few odd WILD's. Got to know about LD reading Carlos Castaneda 10 yrs ago.

      Where I am at right now? Getting lucid and being in a dream scene and after I do a reality check and rub hands or touch things, the dream usually fades into darkness. Sometimes I get a few minutes of flying or being in one scene, but I feel I am not stable in the dream and I think I lack a goal with the dream...

      Anyway, I'm signing up and want to pursue this quest more seriously.

      Peace and pancakes /SpaceS

      Hi everyone!

      I would like to join the class if possible. I have had 5 lucid dreams in Jan., 6 in Feb., and 4 so far in March. Thus far much of my effort was put into getting lucid, but now after 15 lucid dreams, I find they typically only last around a couple minutes, no more than 5 minutes, sometimes as little as 20 seconds. Most of the time I forget my goals and often I act impulsively, which swiftly ends the dream. Even if I think clearly, the dream ends too soon. So I think this class would be perfect for me. Look forward to finding out more.

      PS I have all of my lucid dreams journaled on this site, so you can see what happens in detail if you wish.

      I would like to join the class as well. Since I've joined this site I've averaged around 15 lucid dreams per month but they still average 1 to 2 minutes in length so stabilzation is the area I struggle with most. My dream control has improved as I've gotten lucid more but theres room for improvement there as well. Stabilization and dream control are the areas of lucid dreaming I struggle with most so I think this class would be ideal for me.

      I'd like to sign up please! Literally just got my 8th LD last night, but that's 8 in the past 7 weeks. I've been at it for 7 weeks (in this attempt) so I reach up to the prerequisites!

      I've been having a real hard time with Dream Control. I don't know why, I just do. I think it's a matter of training my subconscious that a dream is just that, and that I should have no doubts. Every time I go to do something abnormal in a dream, I get a niggling doubt. So aye, consider me signed up!

      I'd like to join up too, since I'm horrible at summoning anything in general.

      How many more weeks 'til the next cycle begins?

      I have Lucid Dreaming down, but my weak points are the focuses of this class, I'd like to sign up and begin whenever you'll have me.

      I would let you come in but right now I have no evidence that you meet the required entry requirements for the course, and you don't have a high post count.

      @Nfri

      I'd say the same for you, however you do have a high lucid amount. If I see you being active around the forum for a while I'll let you sign up

      Hello dutchraptor,

      I have been on my lucid dreaming journey for a whole year now. In that time I have had 40+ lucid dreams where I've been able to control and effect the environment. I want to take this class, because I want to improve my stability and control in the dream world. I want to be able to stabilize and anchor myself more effectively, and I believe this class could help me with that. I'm just a new member, but I believe I would make a good addition to the classroom. Thank you.

      Me again - I did the falling over backwards-task last night.

      Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views - StephL - Dream Journals

      I was just freshly "arrived" from a re-entry into a lucid dream - and first recited the months for the TOTM - and then did this.
      Knees locked - no looking backwards and baam.
      There was a wooden floor - and on such a thing, it felt, I landed.
      Small pain - and definitively clear, that this was not a harm - not what would have happened for real.
      One of my vertebrae hit - only one, and no other part of my body - bit weird..

      But the little pain did give me a not completely fear-free attitude - I had to really force myself out of the fourth story window directly afterwards - almost chickened out, too.

      Hello dutch!

      I have had about ten lucid dreams since starting, which was in early december.
      I wan't to, well need to, because I have had very VERY little control of my dreams. Summoning people and things just don't work for me.
      As for stabilization, I keep forgetting too and when I do it does not actually do that much.
      I really wan't to practice anchoring, and get used to it so I will remember to do it IRL.
      I joined december, about the 18th, and have been here for a couple weeks now. Hope I can join the class,

      Hi! I've been lucid dreaming my whole life. I'm always aware in my dreams. I've just never thought anything of it..but after getting on this website (2nd day, lol) I've realized that I could use my LDs, but I don't know anything. So I was wondering what the course is about..?

      I know, there is no such thing as a Freudian misuse of words - he supposedly never said something like the myth has it - buuut - this following is just too beautiful to keep my fingers off:

      hahahah, never even noticed. Perhaps I did mean what I wrote (though I'd never heard of the word before). I actually kinda fits, in a weird twisted way.

      Edit: I don't edit mistakes like that, if it brings people joy there's no need to get rid of it

      It does - when we call somebody anal - that means that there is an obsession to have everything just exactly correct - like niggling about an LD not having full-blown characteristics.
      But I do fully agree with you - knowing, that you dream and having some daytime memory is not the whole deal.

      What is really important - like you wrote it in your first lesson - is the knowledge that:

      a) one is not in any danger oneself whatsoever
      b) there are no consequences of one's actions - no need to take care not to damage something/hurt or kill someone
      c) what it means to be dreaming - namely that you do not have to obey the laws of nature/reality

      I had LDs, that had this all and clear and evident and at hand for use.
      But not all of them - by no means.
      The really good ones had it all, though!!

      Edit: It is nice that you leave it - it did indeed bring my joy!! wink.gif

      Hello fellow dreamers!

      I have been a passionate student of dreams since I was a child, including extensive study in Jungian psychology and shamanism.
      I began a serious practice of lucid dreaming techniques in January, and in just two short months I have had more than 20 lucid dreams. I have been highly successful using reality checks, and have had several LDs using the WILD technique (the most bizarre experiences of my entire life!!!). I have had some success with various forms of stabilization including spinning, and I spontaneously discovered the technique of turning up the volume in the dream to drown out the sound that was trying to wake me up from the real world. However, I feel I need some direction to help stabilize my level of awareness and have better control of the dream space. I feel I am limited by expectation (can't fly) and often get distracted in the dream. I would love some guidance from experienced oneironauts to help me fine tune this incredible ability. I feel the potential for personal and spiritual growth through LD is limitless.

      Thank you for your consideration.
