Hi, |
|
I also don't have solid dream signs. There are some, but I don't see those in waking live often / at all. |
|
Yes having some common dream signs would be an advantage. They can give you specific triggers to do reality checks to, but as for just reality checking ‘generally’, I’m not sure if it would be as effective. |
|
True. And although it's an advantage to have dream signs to trigger a RC(this method relies on the prospective memory), performing RCs without DSs is still effective. You are still providing the subconscious with materials it can use to give you a LD( materials here being RCing), since the subconscious may choose RCing you did during the day to place inside your dream. So yes, it's still effective to do RCs without DSs, but coupling it with DSs will give you both the chance that your subconscious will incorporate a RC to your dream, and the chance that a DS might pass, trigerring your prospective memory to trigger your lucidity. |

I fill my heart with fire, with passion, passion for what makes me nostalgic. A unique perspective fuels my fire, makes me discover new passions, more nostalgia. I love it.

Interesting! It definitely makes sense. I’ve actually found that if I do reality checks with not enough mindfulness or in a rote or habitual way, I tend to just “dream” of doing them, without actually doing reality checks in dreams. |

I've enjoyed lucid dreaming on and off for many years, and have never used dream signs (well, only once, after I visited this forum I tried it, but don't like it). |
|
I've never had an LD induced by simply doing an RC, usually when I'm already conscious and want to verify if it's a dream then I do an RC. |

If you read this do a reality check, you will thank me later...
