Congrats, FryingMan!!

Firslty, great awareness to notice the watch! You were asking about what factors I thought might have contributed (WBTB, etc), but that one was all you - that's your daytime dreamwork all the way!
Hey, this was the same day we'd just been talking about Wife E and the idea of summoning loved ones in LDs! It's so neat that she and Wife L could be in the same place with you - your special people!

And then in the second lucid (btw, 2 LDs!! nice work!!), look at you with that effortless dream control!! That series of mass DC control and transfiguration and TK was so impressive!! I liked the little "woof!" joke the dream threw in, too!

I love that you still use flying as your default mode of transportation!

Amazing series of dreams, and I'm so glad to read that your recall has been coming more easily the last few nights!
Sweet LDs soon, FM!

Loaded the page and just saw a wall of red - knew it was a good thing lol.
Sorry about that hot dog though haha.

It is rot 13. I want something slightly harder than a spoiler tag. If somebody really wants to see my dream "interaction with DC" details, it will take a few more clicks. I don't know, it's sort of silly, perhaps I should just return to spoiler tags.

Is this... a code??

Sounds like all the "interaction"(all those poor women ) back-fired

Congrats on the long dream chain!

It took me a while to figure out what the scare quotes and dancing banana meant, lol.

I like that you took special interest in the ceiling architecture. I am always fascinated by those kinds of things IWL.

Obviously, I have. Mostly about everyday activities like watching movies or hanging out. not much to note. I once had a dream that Jimin became taller than RM, and everyone was so alarmed that they were contacting the police while Jungkook was hyperventilating in the corner. It was a very amusing dream.

Haha. No, dream sign means for me something that repeats frequently in dreams. Yeah, that scenario is definitely dream-like, but doesn't repeat all that often, heh.

CH = Childhood Home, I should add that to the key

The [DS] might be handy, *steals it to use in my DJs aswell*

Though it's questionable you didn't put it after

I'm naked at "at attention" and I run outside with everything waving in the breeze

, implying you do that often in awake life?

Also, what's CH?

Any idea who or what Wheaton is?

Just came to say that I also experience that sensation of the heart stopping when falling asleep lucid. First time it happened it was really scary, now I have even experienced it when meditating. It is the exact moment when the body "falls asleep" but the mind "forgets" to do the same and we feel consciously the body shutting down. The heart doesn't stop, but our mind stops feeling the body sensations, so it feels like the heart is stopping because essentially we stop feeling it. It's scary for the first miliseconds but then followed by immense bliss

It has taken me a LOT of inner work to reduce my stress levels and trauma memories.

Yeah I went to sleep upset.

Sounds like the dreams I used to have when under a huge amount of stress that kicked in my PTSD. Took a lot of inner work to clear that up. Stress is the killer of a good dream-life.

WBTB is one of the most effective ways to increase success. MILD is highly effective and beginner friendly (or returning veteran after a long time away).
Build strong intent, and adopt a critically reflective attitude towards your experiences in waking life. In short, *be* lucid in waking life, and lucidity in dream will follow.
Of course follow the standard advice: build dream recall, DJ, etc. It never hurts to re-read the first 3 chapters of ETWOLD. The ETWOLD approach is so effective that I think that's all one really needs to get back into it. Some people like SSILD, but I never found it worked for me. LDing is highly personal, experiment, and find what works for you. Good luck!

Mmh, that's unfortunate. I'm trying to get into LD'ing after not doing it for over a decade, but still unsure which technique I should settle on.

Hi Timothy P. Meh. I never really had much luck with SSILD. But I'm a difficult back-to-sleep-er -- any sort of thoughts tend to keep me awake.

Thanks to you, I looked up what "SSILD" is. I think I might give it a try. How is it working for you?

just woke up from a dream where I saw a kid's head being crushed by a truck

gory dreams be wildin' lol
