Thread: Lucidity on a subconscious level?

Hi Shantak, I had a think about this. I wondered if the super-ability of telekinesis when it occurs in a non-lucid is not a strong enough action to make you, the dreamer, realise it's a dream. A reasonable alternative would perhaps be to do something shocking that would, in normal walking life, result in death. The simplest that springs to mind is the action of flying up, in a straight line and flying faster and faster so that you are always experiencing acceleration. A simple objective then: Fly up, and constantly accelerate the flying. If you can get out of the earth's atmosphere several things should've already killed you on the trip: g force, lack of oxygen, the cold (and possibly fear).

I suppose the journey could start out as a kind of telekinesis, where you do the jump RC or try to lift your feet off the floor a few inches. Once you've achieved this you could switch to your goal of flying up with rapid acceleration.
