hi i just go on this website, and am doing prety well with remebering my dreams, and doing reality checks during the day, but not at night i think it is because. when i'm in a dream (but don't know it yet) something weird could happen. for example, i could run on water or technology could come out of a computer. i never think it's weird though, and rarely do reality checks in my dreams.
does anyone have any suggestions to make me realize something is wierd in my dreams?
I think because the dream you thinks this is normal. Everyone that isn't a natural has the exact same problems, so your not alone. Heres a link to a thread, its called "Stupidest Ways You've Missed Becoming Lucid "

The only way you can fix this is notice your dreamsigns (odd things that happen often in your dreams) my most common one would be when my friends and family don't act like themselves, or lights don't switch on. the more aware you are of these, the higher chance you have becoming lucid.
It´s not that hard to start wondering in a dream. You need to ask yourself if its a dream whenever something weird happens in real life. It doesnt need to be something completely unusual, waiting for a bus and the bus isnt coming should be enough for you to make a reality check. Make a habit out of it and always look for odd things.
You´re gonna do that in your dreams as well then.
The next problem will be that you´re probably gonna start finding explanations in your dreams for the weird things and then still dont become lucid. I have that problem A LOT which means I´m not questioning my reality good enough. I´ve changed that (doing multiple reality checks), so I hope I´ll get better results soon.
thanks for the imput. if anyone can just realize weird things in their dreams or thinks they know why people don't realize please post.
thank you.
Whenever I get fooled by obviously weird stuff, It seems like it is because I am watching my dream like a movie. I am not really inhabiting the dream. To fix this, I try to make sure to practice staying aware and "in the present" throughout the day. I try to stay aware of my body, my perspective, and my presence.
Oh, man, it seems like almost all my dreams are like that to at least a certain extent. It also seems like those dreams are less vivid and I can see myself from an external angle.Quote:

yeah its really not easy to notice strange things in your dream...in almost every dream i make somehting with famous people like bruce willis, lil´wayne O_o?!, christian bale and so on..so my biggest Dreamsign are famous people but in 99% i dont notice that i make something with famous people until i wake up...so stupid...
lol, you "make something"?
It's weird how your mind rationalizes things, I've dreampt about people who have died and my mind just says, well it's 1996 and they're still alive... Or I'll see an alien and be like "ya they landed a few weeks ago". I think thats the point of DJ's and RC's. We begin to recognize weird things in real life and do reality checks that way when something weird happens in a dream (even if you think there's an explanation) you do a RC and VOILA you're lucid!
yeah today i just hang out with Eminem and later i went on a Mission with Sean Penn in a Helicopter..O_o thats totaly normal for my sleeping me...
but the good news 15 Minutes before i had to get up to Work i had a false awakning and realised it...so i looked at my hand and one finger was very small so i knew i was dreaming and i had my 5th lucid dream...i wished me 2 nice girls...but then i rather wanted to shoot fire through my finger and fly around...the shitty thing about dreams in the early morning is that they are more blurry and cloudy then dreams in the middle of the night.
ha, that's pretty ill. I think this morning I looked at my watch a few times and it didn't show the proper times, but I can't remember anything past that.
Another thing about weird shit in dreams. I went back to sleep while my alarm went off - it was set to "radio", and I have it to this station that plays a russian talkshow because I can speak a little russian and I like waking up to it in the morning. Anyway, like I said, I was sleeping to this russian talk show, and peolpe in my dream were speaking in russian, like my parents, and they don't know russian. and I remember yelling at the top of my lungs in russian and it felt so real that i thought, "oh man, I hope I'm not acting this out in real life, that would be embarrasing" and i didn't become lucid...
yo, sorry for the double post, but I saw this PA comic that made me think of this thread.
