      Lightbulb Making Dream Characters Appear

      So I haven't had a lucid dream in a while, when I used to have them I always had trouble summoning DC's. I haven't been able to try this method so I was wondering if anyone else has tried this or thinks it is a good idea. Instead of imagine a dream character appearing or willing it, I was wondering if simply calling their name would work. For example I want to meet Lebron James, I would go: "Lebron James! Come here!"


      So has anyone ever done this and succeeded, or do any of you think this idea is good at all?




      Thanks

      I think that calling out to them is the main way people summon DCs. So I would recommend that.

      Either that or you go to a place you would expect them to be. Like their house. Or for Lebron James, a basketball court.

      Yes that works just fine. All I do is say "So-and-so is behind me". I turn around and there they are.

      But really anything you do is capable of working, so keep the technique simple so you aren't wasting your time.

      Good and simple. I had a problem with summoning dc's before, so I'm going to try this tonight for sure. Thanks.

      The method that's never failed for me is to think of who I want to see, and stick my hand behind me, expecting someone to grab it. As soon as someone grabs my hand (usually in a split second) I pull them in front of me. I think I saw a DV moderator first describing this, MasterMind

      I will always search for a door and say to my self: this person will be here any second by now. Then I just open the door and there he/she is.

      This is exactly what I do aswell. If for some reason this does not work, I would always go the place I expect this person to be, like their house in most cases.

      That's usually the method I go for as well. I will just call out their name. If, for whatever reason, that fails I tell myself they will appear around the next corner or through the next door, just like Rafskeman said. I guess it depends on how much awareness and control I have as well.

      i usually just focus and the person just ends up walking in, though if i dont focus enough they look really weird. im definitely going to try this, it seems much smarter.

      I too was struggling with summoning DC's. But thanks to this post I recently was able get it! Just reached behind me, knowing that a hand would grab mine, and when I felt someone grab my hand after a few seconds, I pulled forward and it was my friend

      Well, i like to see Dc's in their houses sometimes. So it works for me, if i want a bunch of dc's to come out, to say, "everyone come out of your houses!" Or, you could do that for a specific person.
      If you see a strange typo in my post, blame my iPad for that.

      I'm glad it worked for you! That's the only way I've been able to summon specific DCs

      My method: Ask another dream character to show you where that special he/she is, or tell him to bring him/her to you. Then fully expect this to happen.

      I forgot about this one! For some reason I can summon my DG only by using this method. Otherwise I get random DCs.

      Read this last night before bed, tested it this morning with a WBTB, and it worked perfectly. Thanks!

      A separate question I have though is how do you improve the representation of a dream character? Like the person I summoned I guess I haven't seen in a while, so I don't think her face was perfect, even though of course at the time I was at least able to recognize her. Is there a good method to improve the likeness after having already summoned the DC?

      i would shout out to them. that sounds psychologically correct in my opinion. if you want something fancier than that, make up your own dragon shout from skyrim that will summon someone/something. remember, you need to imagine it happening for it to happen. at least, that's what i heard form 95% of people on dreamviews.

      Is it possible to simply visualise who you want, shut your eyes and open them again, expecting them to be there?

      Of course.

      It's possible to not do anything, and simply make them appear by believing.

      That sounds extremely dangerous. In my dreams, whenever I close my eyes, I open my eyes in real life - instantly waking me up.
      Current projects:
      -Acquire the Aurora
      -Test galatamine, huperzine and choline
      -Find smartwatch app for RC reminders at certain intervals
      -Ressurect my dream log here, and become more active

      You can get used to it. Just make sure you are anchored in the dream. It happened to me at first to. In fact, that used to be how I woke myself up. now I use closing my eyes as ways to short distance teleport. Turn around slowly can have the same effect as closing your eyes though.
