    Lucidity Scale

    by , 08-03-2010 at 09:40 PM (641 Views)
    I've acquired a new lucidity scale, so I can stop using misnomers like "semi-lucid." This scale is based on one developed by Ed Kelog.

    Here it is

    1/5 I realize that I dream, but continue to follow the dream "script"; no conscious choice.

    2/5 I still follow the dream script (knowing that I dream), but I can make minor choices in keeping with dream reality. (This is where I know I'm dreaming, but I still have a plot to follow, and that's keeping me from really thinking things through and making my own conscious decisions as to what I want to do. I may transform into a dragon in order to kill puny fools blocking my path though, for example.)


    3/5 I have the choice of following the dream script or not, can make major choices based on awareness of my potentialities in the dream state e.g. might choose to try a dream experiment instead of continuing the dream scenario, etc.

    4/5 I'm fully aware that I dream and of the location and state of my physical body; also remember most knowledge from waking life, at least as it relates to goals that I had set for my lucid dreams.

    5/5 I'm aware of myself as an integrated whole, at least on level with how I would be during a waking focus. Thinking, feeling, creating aspects of self are working as a unified whole. Extraordinary (even for dream reality) abilities and experiences often manifest.

      I like this scale. I might try to use it myself.

      Most of my lucid's stay in the 1/5 2/5 some go to 3/5. Having a 4/5 I'm not entirely sure I've had, but thinking back I should have had a couple few.

      Yeah, mine stick somewhere in the 2-3 range, generally

      2/5 seems to be where I have the best level of control for some reason. :S
