Proof that shared dreams aren't "Manufactured"

[Man of Shred]

The following dreams happened between two DV members. none of them were really aware of eachother on the forums. these dreams happened the same night. Both reported being in a school with a large glass or crystal dome covering the school. Both had a conversation where there was a misunderstanding due to a language barrier. These two people never intended to share dreams. Lucid Dream Savy: They're Gonna Get Us! I was lucid in my English class. I know that there is this new guy and class, and I see him talking with some girl. I decide to sit behind him. I say hi, and he turns around. He mentions how he has "lived in every country in the United States" . At first I thought he meant continents...then I got it. Somehow, I got into some trouble for talking with him. And, I wanted out of this school. Somehow at this point, I am with one of my friends. We bust out of the classroom to find a window to fly out of- I don't do walls. We finally find one, and the whole class is after us! I start to fly through it with her. It looks SO odd "outside". We are out of the normal-looking school, and out here is this big dome, I think the glass cieling was an odd green color. We are flyin, and bustin the domes- there are more then one of them. Then, I see the girl that was talking to the guy before, and the dude. My friend and I commence running! I'm holdin onto her hand because I can't seem to run fast in dreams. She's helping me walk faster! This goes on for a bit. Then, the girl finally catches my arm and says "gotcha!". But then I come up with an awesome new plan! I told my friend to follow me- it was implied to do so quickly. I see a mirror, and hop inside of it to teleport. [/COLOR] From Walms: FA, go out of bed and RC, suddenly find myself in the school, just that it was not my school, it was one with a large crystal dome and it was full of activity, unlike the one where I was a while ago, my lucidity was floating around for some reason, I tried my best to ground myself, but even so, it would come and go for a while, now I was in a classroom, hearing a... something I’m not familiar with class, there was a few people and apparently I was good at the class and thus, ended with a guy asking me stuff about it, I explained to him that I was new and that I had no idea what he was talking about, he seemed disappointed and said he would go to the dome, I was uninterested on that stuff, then fainted and woke up when I fell down.

In the title it says shared dreams aren't "Manufactured." By this do you mean intentionally caused? because it seems to me that shared dreams can happen unintentionally, but they can also happen when you want them to, much like how I see them and how I think those who believe in them see them too. Besides that, congrats on the shared dream LDS and Walms!

Also, two users Ezzie_Ezz and mrdeano unintentionally shared a dream where they were on a train together. They were both randomly chatting on DV chat, then they realized they were in each other's dreams. They had previously never spoken. He lives in the U.S., and she's in Europe. I posted it in the old shared dream DJ.

Hm, niice. Then obviously our dreams are not only ours only the interpretations are ours. Same as 'normal' life

I've had shared dreams with strangers but more often with relatives and friends. Because they hardly even recall their dreams, it's hard to get their confirmation. But at least once my boyfriend told me about a dream he could recall and that matched a dream I had had that same night. I remember I wished that he would join me there on that dream - which apparently he did! It was kind of inception. I also had a premonitory dream once about my mother getting very sick with alergy to shrimps - and she had the same exact dream. On that day she was invited to a party and they served shrimps. She didn't eat it and still today she never ate shrimps again. Shared dreams can be hard to identify, because it's hard to know if the person is "real" or your own projection, but usually they have a different feel when it is the real deal. For example, they react in unexpected ways, they express ideas you could not possibly come up with based on what you know about them, you get to know a side of this person you don't normally see in daylight. A projection would normally act based on the idea you have of this person and not surprise you or show real depth.

I believe I had the experience of waking up another dreamer in a dream. It was my mother - I have lots of dreams with her in which she is not lucid, but this time I decided I wanted her to be fully there with me and maybe this would help her remember the dream in the morning. So I told her she was dreaming and after a few explanations and demonstrations, she actually got it and she was amazed, like "No wayyyy!!!" I told her how she could transform the dream and actually it was hilarious. We were in her room, sitting on her bed and I suggested "make something appear that you would really like to have or see". And I was thinking all sorts of things she could make appear, instead she opened her wardrobe and it was full of brand new amazng clothes, designer clothes, amazing dresses. I LMAO! "OK, if that's what you long for..." We talked for some time about lucid dreams and I think she learned a lot that night. Unfortunately in the morning she only had a vague memory of havin seen me in a dream, but it was a start
