Thread: I think I have found my dream sign!

Yes, you should start doing RC's everytime you see them. Also a mantra before you're going to sleep will help, something like: "Everytime I see someone from my family, I will know that I'm dreaming/I will do a reality check". You could also repeat this mantra during the day so you remember doing the RC's at daytime.

I will add something disheartening, but necessary to think about: I have found family to be poor dream signs. While they show up for me, too, very seldom do i actually think, "is this really my wife?" or "Is this the real version of my sister?" This requires a fairly high level if awareness and perhaps almost paranoid level of state testing. Now--if you never see your family, or they never visit you and suddenly they are in your house--different story

I have to agree with ThreeCat. Unless you don't see these family members that you mentioned often, you might want to try looking for something else. But otherwise, go at it!

My dream signs are all things out of the ordinary. I think you should look for those. Your sleeping brain needs a "kick" to jog you into awareness.

For example...ones that have worked for me...wild, reckless driving, or extreme heights, looking for some place I am supposed to be at but utterly lost, a gruesome but painless wound on me, showing up at class for a test and knowing you havent come to class at all all semester, mis-dialing my cell phone 10 times in a row.

Each has some emotional jolt along with the weirdness of the situation. I think common things or situations would be difficult to provide the jolt. Don't worry...your subconscious learns your signs and starts showing them more frequently if your intent is there to LD.
