Thread: "People" Dreamsigns

This seems like an amazing reality check. My dreams ALWAYS have at least one of my good friends in there. If I managed to do the RC's in waking life I think my Lucid Dream count would increase dramatically! Good thinking

I'm new to this but in the past five days I've dreamt of Daniel Day Lewis twice and Battlestar Galactica characters twice! Check my DJ in my signature for more details.

Perhaps it could be a dreamsign?

DCs are a great dream sign, especially if the show up often in your dreams!

I've had this annoying old lady with a British accent show up twice. I invite her in and she immediately starts Criticizing everything I'm hoping if she shows up again I hope I'll be able recognize it.

Last night was Andy Rooney, get kept asking me what all numbers ment on BMW cars. After I explained it he went away. Still no lucidity but I'm recalling more each night.

Steve

what DO all the numbers on BMW cars mean? haha

Model Series and engine size. Andy can give you the details if you see him.

Steve

haha i bet. Does he know about mercedes too? lol

sorry... this is all really off-topic

2 and 4 could definitely trigger the train of thought that, "Gee, I don't see these people anymore, or at all. Perhaps I'm dreaming!" It's good thinking to reality check around celebrity news and ex-lovers.

1 and 3 are a little misunderstood. I don't see how seeing a normal stranger, or a close relative could be a sure-fire sign you are dreaming, because you see those all the time! If they were in a place they don't belong, or acting strangely, then I could see it as a reliable dreamsign. It's just like my dream sign with fish. If I see my fish in a dream, and nothing is wrong, then I feel no need to reality check. Only if they are distorted do I get the clue that I'm dreaming. Because of this, I recommend you specify 1 and 3 so that you reality check whenever you see these commonly seen people do something weird, or in a weird situation.

I think its less about getting something that always works, and more about understanding your dream patterns. You want to identify which category is most common in your dreams. But perhaps it is all too much to consider while asleep. I think that your brain gives rank to people that you know better, so they turn up more often in your dreams.

If you can get in the habit of critically state checking when you are with your close circle, or maybe just one of them... especially when it is accompanied by another dreamsign location, action, whatever... i think it could be particularly effective.

However, this might just be me and the fact that i see people more than i see circumstances.

I agree with you Abra... 2 and 4 are definitely the most easily recognizable...

I agree with Archem that having a person you commonly see in your waking life as a DS is only useful if you actually do a reality check everytime you see them. That way when you run into them in your dreams you'll do the RC and have a major woohoo moment!
