I issue a challange/study

[Sinar]

I have seen it asked on here a few times andi h ave had the question myself.. Can you continue lucid dreams? So, heres the study. For anyone who can do Lucid dreams regularly (meaning atleast 2 a week) try to continue your lucid dream from the first night on the second night. If possible, try to have the same exact storyline you had the first time with the same people. If not, then there is soemthing simpiler. The first LD do something to someone or with someone. Take someone to a park, get them a present or something like that. The second LD, find that person and ask them if they rememeber you doing whatever you did (also, find out ,in their eyes, how long ago it was that you did that. it would be instesteing if they actually got the time right). it would also be interesting to see if say, you got them a tattoo in the first LD if it is still there in the second. so, anyways, if your interested there's no signing up or nothing. Just tell us your results and, if you want, how long you been LDing. Thanks

I like that idea sounds very good i would like to se what the DC's from my last dream are up to ill have to do that in my next ld

I dont know if this will help you or not: So far I was able to reenter the same lucid dream 5 times. However it happened during the same night. The quality deteriorated, the storyline was kinda twisted, but overall it was the same dream. A couple times I was able to continue the same lucid dream after waking up, going to the bathroom and falling asleep again. Overall, the idea is very interesting and I'll definitely will try to research the concept further next time I'll have a LD

I have been able to re-enter a ld once several years ago. And it was quite the ld, too. There was flying and leaping over buildings, shootings and I may have died and ressurected.

lol wow, glad that i finally came up with a decent idea lol. anyways, theres no rush on this. it's just for fun. plus, i know how lucid dreams are. The month of july i had like 3 ld's (my first was in june i think) so far in august i think i might have had 1 like august 1st or something lol. unfortunatly these suckers are hard to master and its not like a math problem or learning to ride a bike. cause basically you get 1 good shot to do this a day, thats it. maybe more if you have some free time but still, you can't just wake up, sleep, and repeat all day

we've had company and I've been sleeping in a room with three other people...it's really fucking with my lucid dreaming...grr... Then as soon as they leave it's off to Maine for a few days (some cliff jumping ). But this sounds really interesting...I'd love to take part in it. I just moved (in with my aunt and uncle), and school starts the 10th of Sept. so I'm afraid I won't have much time till at least then. I should have my new laptop by then as well 8) I hope others are interested in this, or intrigued at least. I'll keep checking this whenever I get the chance though to see others results.

I recon that could work if you had the characters heaps set in your mind. Would be a good idea if there are novilists on here because there subconscious would be heaps wrapped up in the characters they create. Would be good fun being able to meet that character you created in a lucid.

Well I can't wait a whole night before continuing lucid dreams...but my house is always noisy so when I wake up I just go back to sleep and continue the dream

Hello, I have a method I use to re-enter my LD's - when they are particularly interesting. While in LD, I manifest a book and place it on a table. I've done this so often that a table and book are usually always present in my LD's. If not, I create them. While I am in LD, the book records my experiences. I do not write in it, yet I understand that my LD actions are being detailed upon its pages in "picture form." Later, when I enter another LD and wish to continue it, I locate the table upon which the book rests and open it to the last page. There are no words on the page. It is imagery. The imagery subsequently "pulls" me into the recall of the previous LD. I borrowed this concept from my "waking routine" of keeping a dream journal next to my bed. I thought, "If I can record my dreams after awkening, then why not record my dreams while I am asleep?" ~Deja

i re entered a NON lucid last week for the first time. it was a cool dream with cool DCs, so i was kinda pissed when i woke up. all i did was close my eyes and imagine the scene i was last in. i guess i did a MILD because i was back, in less than a minute!

This is a neat concept and it kind of ties into something I want to try, which also was mentioned in one of Laberge's books - basically create a dream office or building or in my case I want to build a castle .. someplace I could go back to dream after dream, build upon, elaborate upon, etc .. has anyone created something like that, basically a dream sanctuary, that they revisit on different nights of ld'ing?

[kimpossible]

A fascinating question, Sinar - I'll attempt to explore it. Wayward, Yes, I have. Underwater in the Pacific. One of the places I feel most comfortable and "at home" in waking life, it is an ideal retreat built in that environment over time for sleeping life. In fact, I started it when I was a teen and living in the desert. Once I moved back to the pacific coast, it's a big part of what motivated me to start scuba diving.

I am not sure about this. Our waking periods in between our sleeping periods will likely affect what we are going to have in our dreams. To continue dreams with the same "plot" and environment is probably possible, but a lot of data will have been reorganized depending on what we did in the waking state in between. But an anchor such as a dream room where you center your intentions is a great idea...

It's been my experience that a dream can depend largely on whatever stimulus is encountered directly before the dream. I often repeat a unique mantra as I go to sleep in order to aid in both sleep induction and to act as a “seed” for the dream that night. If I happened to enjoy the particular dream, then I can usually use the mantra from that night to serve as an associative link into the same dream. The time-span doesn’t seem to matter as your subconscious won’t forget.
