Was wondering how many people have been able to communicate with their dream characters and learn something useful from them. |

That's interesting and not at all what I would expect either. |

I have asked DCs how to become better at lucid dreaming, and how to make my dreams more vivid and this one DC advised me when I was spinning to inrease clarity I was spinning anti-clockwise rather than clockwise, which is why I was not having much success with it. So with this I tried it and it worked a treat, and had one of the longest lucid dreams as a result |

I almost hate to reply to this, because of how it may influence your experiences with DC's in a negative way. |
|
Wow, your DC's sound downright mean Moonbeam. They sound much more like other dreamers that are trying to hit on you than parts of you subconscious mind. |

It doesn't feel at the time like they are trying to hit on me; more like they are being friendly and companionable, until I challenge them and they become aggressive and spiteful. Once a DC that seemd to be one of the aware ones did do something inappropriately sexual after he "changed", but it seemed like the same kind of thing as when they try to hurt me somewhat before letting to--just a little jab to annoy me; they don't seem very powerful in that way, as far as control over the dream-bodies. He ended up changing his appearance to be scary when the physical threats didn't work. Unfortunately, that did work, and I woke up on purpose. I wish I would have let him change and held my ground without getting freaked out. (The DC's that I do have sex with do not seem to be the aware kind, more just like a fantasy-type dream, or mental masturbation. The aware ones are not attractive to me in that way; it would be like having sex with a stranger IRL--just not the first thing I think of when I meet them.) |

Would you believe I've never once thought to communicate with a dream character verbally, except for the things we have done with the lucid dreaming tasks? |

I don't trust dream characters. They have deceived me many times, but that being said i have really bonded with some dream characters. |

At last.. two people who have made a bit of a study of "talking to DCs": pj and Moonbeam. |

They could be "real" but that doesn't mean they're not all in your mind. Maybe we all have the alternative personalities which surface in people who suffer from MPS, but they're usually suppressed within our subconscious. Naturally such entities would object to being referred to as "not real", and have a particular interest in the only one in their world who actually gets to be "real". |

Whoa...you just made my hairs stand up Oneiro. No I have not read about it, but on another site where I posted the dream, the moderator told me that it was a technique that is also taught in a Phychic Development book that he had. |

It sounds like they may not understand what the dream state is because to them this is their reality and not a dream, and that they seem so real to themselves that they do not realize that they are actually a creation of the dreamers mind. And maybe some of them are not a creation of the dreamers mind, as some of them may actually be other dreamers out and about during the night. |

I, too have been contemplating the nature of the dream world and DCs. Hopefully, after a few more years of religiously keeping a DJ, I will feel like I have a better understanding. So far, I am starting to notice a trend (which would be interesting if it continues) that seems to place DCs into four distinct categories: |

So I havent been around in a while, one of the reasons I left is that there was almost a total lack of people that seemed interested in the nature of the dream world of the people there, and how to communicate with them. |

Interesting rundown on where DC's may come from Seeker28 and Serinanth. |

This is interesting stuff, Serinanth. It reminds me of something I read once in a Castaneda book. He avers that he would often lucidly visit a "dreamworld" of caves and interconnecting tunnels, within which he once encountered an odd DC that was blue-coloured. He tried to communicate with this DC but found it nigh-impossible, due to what he felt was some sort of "energetic barrier". He states that he got the feeling that this DC was trapped somehow in that cave environment. He named this DC the "Blue Scout". |

I had what seemed like a very profound lucid a couple months back. The whole dream is here: http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...&postcount=328 |
