      Maybe something to do with numbers? Numbers seem to warp in dreams, though I'm not an expert on this...

      Small text or numbers is actually a good idea. Also, a red spot in the middle of your hand for the "finger through hand" RC. Every time you see it..

      thanks guys, I like the dot in the center of the hand, but its very simple, is there anything like a "dream gate" or something? and what are some good numbers/ symbols ?

      anything in the palm of your hand isn't a great idea because the skin isn't always taut and you use it and it sweats n stuff. someone on here mentioned a while back that they tattooed a greek symbol (for 'dream' or something like that) on the space on top of the hand between the thumb and forefinger.

      I don't know about dream gates, but maybe for numbers you could do your lucky number(s), a birth date, your favorite numbers...

      well... the main idea is to have something subtle that will show up differently in a dream - hence, a RC.

      Like a bullseye?
      We all live in a kind of continuous dream. When we wake, it is because something,
      some event, some pinprick even, disturbs the edges of what we have taken as reality.

      i would do an elaborate picture on the back of your hand that starts as a circle and branches outward. that way u can do the finger through and trick. and it wld be good to examine for dream stabilization. plus it cld look really creative.

      I was actually thinking about getting two seperate tattoos for cheap that would help do reality checks and help in the dreaming world i would get a capital 'A' on my wrist or forearm on my left arm and capital 'S' on my right wrist or forearm therefore throughout the day i would always be reminded to think hmm am i awake or am i sleeping? and the same goes when i am dreaming if i were to look at my tattoo and question it bam lucidity! but the problem is do tattoos appear in are dreams? as they are in waking life?

      I have several tattoos, and they do not always appear in dreams. The ones I have had for more than five years usually appear in my dreams, but not always. The newer ones are almost never in my dreams. Sometimes I have tattoos in dreams that I do not have in WR. I have a red phoenix on my back that I actually decided to get after having it in a dream.

      I wouldn't say my tattoos appear in my dreams, but I'd like to say the meaning behind them finds its way into everything I do. There's ink on my forearm and chest, but I need more!

      Not really, no. But I can recognize the meaning of several characters!

      I should actually use that Rosetta Stone I have...

      Rosetta Stone? Oh those words tattooed on your hands are related to Taoism. I tried to read them separately then I noticed the last word meant scripture and I realised I was doing it wrong.

      Yea, it literally translates to "the way" and "virtue" and "scripture" or "holy route".
