Thread: A Brief History of Me

Hi everyone,

I call myself Solaetia here. I'm a, ahem, 'middle-aged' human female and I've been interested in dreams since I was a kid. The first dream I remember was from when I was around 4 years old, it was short and involved my dog and Robin Williams in his role as 'Mork' (70's kid) I was playing with my dog when I saw Mork was visiting us, along with my grandma and grandpa. ^_^ The first nightmare I remember happened when I was around 5-6 years old, and involved being sucked into a picture that sat on the nightstand next to my bed, and turned into a cartoon. I began having reoccurring nightmares about bears when I was 12, and they lasted throughout my early 20s, although I still have bear dreams now and then they don't have the power that they once did. I had my first lucid dream at 15 before I knew what they were called. I discovered Stephen LaBerge's book 'Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming' when I was around 17 and I believe that is when my true oneironautic journey began.

It's been a while since I've kept an online DJ (I used SawLogs for a few years back when it was online) and I am excited to be back in a dream community. I feel more connected to myself when I record my dreams. My goals are to keep that up, continue to exercise and advance my LD skills, study and practice Dream Yoga, and to become overall more aware in waking and sleeping life.

Happy to be here.

Solaetia
