Glad it worked! I hope the next time I'm lucid *before* I hurdle into the sky 😆 |

Interesting. When I get lucid usually the plot ends completely. I usually remain in the same location but the plot and even the characters usually disappear completely. I therefore find a lot of my lucids start with me alone and usually new characters appear as it goes on. My longest lucid dreams usually occur when I simply walk through them and observe the setting and the things around me. If I do this for long enough I can then move on to pursuing goals and more complicated things. Problem is I sometimes I forget this step and do something more complex and wake up quicker. |

So I managed to experiment again last night with running through a wall as a way of changing location. I had great success with this again though it wasn’t the smoothest transition but very fascinating! |

Interesting experience and congrats on the success. Consider this trick next time. The more magical the experience such as teleporting the less likely that your mind will not object. In order to avoid this kind of objection you can explain to your mind why such and such makes sense. In your case of the room I might take a moment and imagine where this room is. It is on the island you want. Yes, I remember it is in a grass field with palm trees and the sea nearby. I am already on the island but need to get out of this room, then I will be outside on the island. that kind of thought. |

Great suggestion thanks! That would simplify it somewhat. Hopefully in time I can get doors to work in this way as I think my mind interprets running through a wall as breaking the dream and throwing myself out of it which is why I always end up falling in the dark void. |

So I’ve been carrying on with my attempts to change location by running through walls and still encountering the same issue. Even though I call out to the dream that “I want to go into outer space!” (which is my current goal) and try visualise it as I do I am still finding myself floating in total darkness when I leap through the wall. I can use this dark void to manifest new locations but I never usually get what I want. In my most recent attempt I tried to visualise the earth in front of me and was able to make it appear out of the blackness but it wasn’t a realistic depiction of the earth and looked more like a computer generated representation rather than the real thing. So I’m now wondering about dream incubation and if spending some time watching videos and looking at photographs of the earth from space would help solidify the image in my mind so that it appears and feels more realistic in the dream? Like feeding my subconscious the data so that it can create it later. Do people find this works? Or is the problem more to do with dream control and expectation and I don’t fully believe I could conjure up a realistic enough image which is why it didn’t work? |

One thing I might try is saying something like "Increase realness" "Increase vividness," or something to that effect, to the Dream Source. I've done something similar, and it has worked for me to make my dreams more vivid while lucid. Just state it like a command, and see what happens. Also, if you want to visit outer space, what about flying up? |

Sounds like you are doing good. I would just modify how you think during this. You end up in a void? "Yay! I made it to outer space!" The Earth looks all digital? "Wow, amazing, the Earth looks so real, I can see my home region!" |
|
Flying up would make sense but I’m a bit nervous about flying in general as it usually wakes me up quite quickly. Worth trying again though. |
|
Thanks for the tips. When I entered the void I did try this way of thinking. I was floating there and told myself that’s because I’m in zero gravity. I then looked around for stars and the earth but it wasn’t forming which is why I had to try visualise it instead. Maybe I just needed more patience. I will try watching some videos of space and see if I can get a better feel for it. |
|
I’m thinking of trying the “close my eyes” method of changing location. I worry this may just wake me up but If it can be done it would mean a quick method of changing the location. |

I’ve never had much luck closing my eyes in a lucid dream either. It usually wakes me up or blurs my vision but I know it’s possible as I’ve closed and re-opened my eyes in an NLD without issue. I believe it’s a negative expectation issue that can be overcome. Nervous to try though! :-D |

I have an idea: walk forward while looking down and watch the ground change to your desired destination. When it appears you're at your desired destination, look up to see where you are. |

I haven't tested this technique very much in the past, but I recall having some success with this technique, enough where I think it could work. I recall trying this technique to summon a snowy landscape and got a landscape with some slushy snow, although not the crunchy snow I was going for. I also recall using this technique to change the floor and walls of an indoor building. |

Very cool! There’s so many ways to achieve things. I’ve tried a portal once before and it was a very trippy and surreal experience but didn’t lead me to my desired location sadly. I’ve being meaning to try a doctor strange type portal. Since I’ve seen it in the film I think I should be able to replicate it with practice. |
|
Last night I finally changed the location to one of my choosing! As I’ve said before the traditional methods of using doors, portals and expecting it to be around corners have never really worked for me. The closest I’ve got is entering the void and waiting for a new location to form, however when I do this I never get where I desire even though I try visualising and suggesting it. However, when a dream collapses and my vision goes black I can usually still feel the dream with my hands. I’ve used this before to get back into the previous dream by grabbing onto something physical. I wondered if I could use this to create a new location and last night I was able to put my experiment to the test… |

Didn't read the entire thread but tips I use to go where I want are: |

Please, guys, post all your successful attempts of teleportation, even if done by mistake or not wanted. |
