Before and at the outset of the lucid dreaming phase, I got lost a lot in dreams. I would go in some building or something and come out and not know where I was. Many times I would have driven a car, but would not be able to find the car when coming out of the building.

After RG started to help me, I started changing my attitudes about the dreams and it somehow worked into the dreams. The things I had been scared of and frustrated by, became more like fun opportunities, and my dreaming mind seemed to like to play with me like I was some sort of precocious child it was having fun with and teaching at the same time.

Later, I had many dreams that were like complex movies with a variety of dream characters, some played by people I knew in everyday life, and some I didn't know at all in waking life. These were often sort of road signs of I guess how my subconscious viewed my life at the time. One thing I noticed is that the subconscious is not really fettered by things like time and space. Another thing I notice is that the dreams sometimes tell of things to come in the future. Sometimes things that don't seem like they could have possibly been foreseen.

There were many dreams that predicted what I maybe could have consciously seen coming but two stand out as ones I could have in no way seen coming. Another thing I notice is that dreams often happen in sort of transition phases where your mind is trying to work through some sort of problem or hang-up and learn some kind of lesson. I'll go into that later, and I will go into the Lucid Dreaming phases a little later as well.

This is maybe a difficult subject as I have gone through different dream phases - but I don't think that the phases I have gone through are necessarily right or useful or should be ordered in the same way for others as they have been for me.

I know a lot of people here are high in either having Lucid Dreams or wanting to have Lucid Dreams. My first Lucid ones came unexpectedly and I had never heard of Lucid Dreams and I did not like them at all. In fact I hated them, because once I knew I was dreaming, I wanted to awaken, but I couldn't. That changed radically somewhere along the line.

The beginning dreams were as a child of 2 or three. If any have read the RG stuff, she explained to me that at 2 or 3, children begin to dream. They may remember the dreams and they may not. She also explained that these dreams are mostly about monsters and heroes. Also, that the "monsters and heroes" are really the emotions that the human child is developing. I would venture to guess that for me that would be phase 1, and maybe it would be for anyone.

It is possible to me to think that there are dream phases prequel to this in childbirth and even in the womb and possibly before, but I do not remember any if there were.
