Yes, you are right that Lucidity could work just fine. I'm just trying to point out that since Lucid Dreaming gets bigger and bigger and there is an active community here, it would be wise to create words that accurately describe desirable states and successful methods so Lucid Dreaming can be slowly incorporated in everyday life as something normal as breathing, not just something exotic as it currently is.
I might be a new member here, but I feel, since this forum is considered by many the number 1 regarding Lucid Dreaming, that we have the responsibility to enrich the awareness of the rest of the world with people's inherent ability to lucid dream, and I feel strongly that creating a down-to-earth vocabulary and not acronyms of techniques is the first step towards that goal.
Also, I'd like to emphasize that new words that have direct connection to our psyche our the most powerful ones, and in the case of Lucid Dreaming, a state that is surely connected very much to our psyche, it is fundamental to have a verb to describe it.
I know this might not feel of great importance right now and that my choice and syntax of words might make me sound like a public speaker who got lost inside a forum, but trust me when I say that a basic vocabulary could be the foundation for further dream work and dream experiences. With people doing more and more advanced stuff and new people discovering Lucid dreaming more and more rapidly, I believe that the usage of a well-built vocabulary can help us transition more smoothly from phase to phase and converse with much greater ease.
Finally, I'd also like to point out that terms and definitions about Lucid Dreaming are inevitable to happen sooner or later, so I'd suggest, since this is something inevitable as we progress, that the coining of terms should be done by the more experienced members here, after discussion and collaboration.
I personally would love to, for once, witness something that people from all over the world managed to agree upon and make it happen. And what's better than naming our dreams?
And, yes, I may sound like a dreamer, but I'm not the only one!
