      Agreed. There's at least one very experienced lucid dreamer whose opinion was that "hyper-realistic" lucid dreams were more of an emotional response than anything and not actually any more vivid than waking life. That's an interesting take on it.

      Personally, I'm firmly in the camp that lucid dreams can be more vivid than waking life!

This could be why some people feel lucid dreams are more vivid than everyday life. Early on I was amazed by some of the visuals thinking it was unlike anything I had seen before, but then I get a good sunset or light hitting a certain way or any number of things in waking life and it also feels like I am seeing things in a "whole new light" and I find myself smiling big and feeling a sort of exhilaration. I am not constantly walking around like everything is paradise, but I do find paradise in my own back yard more often.

      I find in myself the motivation to experience more detail-rich and beautiful and interesting reality in order to have more vivid dreams.
      That can't be bad either!

      Sorry double post - but I just looked back, and basically I still have the same question I posted a while back.

      How to become aware of dream-signs, which do not show up irl, and thus cannot be RCed on??

      I have identified tons of dream-signs of which I keep dreaming over and over and then some.
      Only in the rarest cases do I recognize them to get lucid.
      I caught up with the toilets only by doing RCs almost every time I go irl. But almost all other dreamsigns don't occur in my actual life (any more).

      But now I had an interesting - almost puzzling occurrence. In a normal dream not long ago, I was digging in the ground and found more and more finger rings. Journalled this as well.
      When I dreamt the same thing two nights back - I became instantly lucid by remembering, that I had dreamt it before. Really convincing this was - no need for RC even.

      How come this was so powerful, and all the rest I ignore??
      What can I do to pin down the others?
      If I got lucid from lets say my most persistent 5 signs - I would be lucid every single night and often in several dreams!
      As said - I can't RC on their occurence..

      I tried it with mantraing over the day and in bed - when ever I see x, I know that I am dreaming, and visualizing x with it - but it doesn't work.
      Sometimes I wonder if this is because unconsciously I want to dream of these things - mostly the place I grew up at and some people I miss irl, because they are geographically far away and contact is sparse.
      Maybe I want them simulated realistically?

      But then - maybe my dreaming brain is simply so used to dreaming these things, that it can't figure them out of the ordinary??


      If I found a solution to that - I had a magic key!

      Ooo that's a fantastic question StephL, and I actually have a really good answer for that one, which I have used several times when I wanted to LD about a certain fictional potions master. Maybe CL can put this one on the queue for the next podcast

      He definitely makes an interesting argument. It's very hard to be objective in an experience as emotional as a dream. Having said that, I've tried some very specific experiments in dreams that have convinced me that hyper-realism is entirely possible.

      I really want to hear about that trick. I have never incubated anything voluntarily, but I have some really odd recurring dream-only characters/signs that could be worth exploring.

      New Podcast in the Near Future

      I am going to be doing a(nother) podcast soon with Ophelia.

      Please, throw some questions out here for us to discuss!

      I have already grabbed a few (Which shall be a surprise...), but feel free to post suggestions :-)

      I've seen this just now and thought I'd ask about mine . It's not lucid dreams . but in all my dreams , every one that I remember there is always a dark side , a weird sense that I don't dislike , it feels as if it's settling , like home . but also I am always searching for someone , or chasing someone either to see them or save them from something but I never get to reach them . It's like I am always trying to find something that I can't actually find. This was always . In all the dreams I remember that is what happens. other things might occur in the dream too. And in my last 3 dreams there were floods in my back yard but hardcore floods. and I always forget to do something ( like close the gate ) and that's why the water comes through. even though in reality it would anyway . in my dreams it's my fault though . do you know what this means ? and that I am searching for someone but never get to them ? I don't want a dream dictionary because that doesn't answer my questions . and in a lucid dream , would it be that I find a fixed arrangement and guide my way through that ? or can I eventually get to the point where it is completely up to me ? (where I am , how I am, the atmosphere, the people around )

      Apart from keeping a dream journal, are there any other methods for increasing recall?
      Don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm too lazy to keep one, but naturally I have really poor recall and I want to enhance it as much as possible.

      I would love to hear about persistent dream-realms and dream-guides (the non metaphysical kind)!

      Question for the podcast: What is your favorite moment when shapeshifting? Is it the transformation process, a certain body part that you find to feel awesome, the end product, etc?
      Question #2: Can you share some general tips?
