I hope its true :D
Im worried after meeting my dream guide i wont be able to just have fun in my dreams any more, such as killing people because in MY opinion killing DC is harmless fun and something that shouldn't be taken too seriously at all, im worried my Dream guide would see it differently thus putting a stop to my complete freedom to do as i please in my own dreams..which is why i LD at all the complete freedom to do exactly what i please.
Well, why would she lie? i dont ever remember reading anything about dream guides lieing, but i do remember reading about them telling the truth.Quote:

i love this post, well untill the negativity rolled in. Im having problems finding my DG. the first one that "claimed" to be my DG. had a very false dark feel about them, i was very uneasy around them in my dream and i just knew that they werent really my DG. the second time, wasnt so bad. but i knew it wasnt my DG... the last time i was lucid i was asking around for my DG.
every one i asked. was shutting me out. blocking door ways and walk ways, and kept saying things like your DG isnt here, you wont find you DG and. it was like a whole dream town of people were all in on this little sick game. i dont really understand...... but then again, who really understands dreams. this was such a horrible dream though. left me in my dream feeling so empty and weird i had to wake myself up.. does anyone have any thoughts on this
From what I've read from the topic, negative feelings just makes sure you won't meet your DG while you feel it.Quote:

Imagine you had found your DG the first time, it be juste like "Oh, that was easy!" but if like what's happening to you now, every DC is trying to stop you from finding your DG, and then you find him/her, you'll feel very proud that you defeated all your DCs and achieved something so hard. It will give you a very good feeling, well, I think. :PQuote:

Hmm I never realized interactions with dream characters were such an important part of lucid dreaming - and such a complex phenomenon, too. The thing is I hardly ever meet anyone in my dreams. It's actually weird! When I'm non-lucid, there's lots of people, with whom I interact in various ways - from friendly conversations to arguments - but when I notice a dream sign and go lucid, POOF! all people are gone! And when they do appear, it's such a distressing factor that it causes me to wake up. Or they try to distract me and I end up non-lucid again.
BUT...
...the original poster's story made me think I might've met my dream guide before... Just when I began trying to get lucid in my dreams, a bit over a year ago, in November. In one of the first dreams I wrote down (non-lucid), I hung out with this cute, dark haired girl, who reminded me of a friend from highschool. We were in this white room - and suddenly, I felt I had to leave. I headed for the door, walked through it and as I was closing the door behind me, I promissed her I'd be back for her. And then I woke up. I never had a dream about her again. And... I always felt strangely guilty, as if I disappointed her. Weird feeling.
So I'm wondering...
...could this sort of attachment be purely incidental? Or was that an encounter with my dream guide, who didn't reveal herself to me back then because she knew I wasn't ready. Which in fact I wasn't, because I was barely beginning my adventure with LD's. Hmm... I know where the place I left her in my dream is, it's somewhere downtown - a place where I go lucid in my dreams A LOT. I think I know the exact building. So I do wonder... if I went there and called out for her, would she come out? Or if it WAS her at all.
Either way, an intriguing topic... Adding a whole new dimension to LD, for sure.
Wow! Thank you everyone for taking the time to read my tutorials.. I never knew it would have this big of a positive effect on people... I've been thinking about revising this tutorial because so many people have read it, and update it with more information..
Anyways, thanks again for reading... My PM box is always open for questions, so feel free to ask!
It would be good if you could revise it due to the tutorial's age. I would certainly re-read it like I have been with the current one. It would be greatly appreciated. :PQuote:

Well, I really remembered to do this :banana: In my last dream, after becoming lucid, I asked every DC I met, if he/ she was my dream guide. However, they were all really annoyed and looked at me as if I'd just asked the most stupid question in the world :( Oh well, I'll keep on trying.

Hope this helps so you can continue on to finding your guide.
Oh yea, and i'm a big fan of looking up at the sky in a lucid dream. If you haven't tried it, it's very breathtaking ; )
TY spiritofthewolf for this awsome tutorial ... I'm yet on my quest on finding my DG. Although i had some dreams while ago of a girl looking at me straight in the eyes, she also apeared in about 2 of my LDs. She always wants my attention by waving at me or anything. Meh ... I'm gonna ask her tonight ( ofcourse ) if she is really my DG.
what a wonderful post, I'll be coming back to this later, when I'm ready to meet my dream guide, which is hopefully soooon!!!
Very interesting thread!
I haven't met my DG (or been lucid much aside form a few random low level LDs)... but I absolutely believe the subconscious knows more about us than we do about ourselves. The conscious mind likes to fool itself... think about this -- don;t you sometimes know more about a friend than he does about himself? We tend to lie to ourselves about things we don't want to believe.... bad traits etc.
The subconscious isn't self-deceiving like the conscious mind is. That's why so frequently dreams can tell us important things about ourselves... point out blocks we need to deal with.
So it seems quite likely to me that characters in a dream could tell you things about yourself you 'don't know' (or refuse to acknowledge consciously). It also seems likely to me that wisdom could come from any character in a dream, or from no character at all... just situations or feelings and intuitions you get in a dream. But by the same token, I can see having a certain character that might represent wisdom.
Ok, I'm out of my element now... like I said, I have yet to find my DG.
Is a dreamguide your subconsious, that would explain why it knows you so well? Like ur dream guide is apart of you so it goes through everything with you so it is you? But it contacts you through dreams. Maybe that would explain why we don't know are subconsious that well. Because it is seperate but the same? But I don't know much about the subject so I can't really state much. Thank you for the topic it is very fascinating so I will look into it. Maybe I will find my DG and ask it these questions.
OMG! I just remembered something from when i was little I had this dream and in this dream i made a friend. my friend was an alien maybe it changed its form into an alien so it was appealing to me since i was little. Any way i felt an emotional attachment to this alien. I came up with this thing called a dream friend kinda like an imagnery friend but he felt so real. So I talked to him all the time. So he has contacted me before. This is so overwheling remembering this I need to contact my dream guide again. Until this day i just thought this was just a silly thing i did when i was a kid. This is now my mission to contact my dream guide again. Thank you for posting this and stirring old memmories:D:D:D:D:D:D
I haven't seen my DG in about two years now. If you read LD #3 in my DJ, you will know why. spiritofthewolf, do you have any advice to help me find my DG again?
It would be the sweetest thing ever if every night my dream guide would come and tip me off that i'm dreaming. It would be even sweeter my dream guide was a beautiful woman! Maybe i'll find them soon.
I was searching the web to find a way to summon a spirit fox or a kitsune when i found your post
Your post has really got me thinking about dream guides.
Since i was a kid and up to now (im 23) i had 3 LDs that really stood out to me it always had the same girl in them.
In the first she was running away from me but in that "follow me way" then in the second i actually talked to her but couldn't see her face and in the third one she was lying in bed next to me as if we were lover :oops:
Could she be my DG?
Definitely, I think you should just assume that she is, and then try to pursue her, or just wait and see when you'll see her again :3
I find it really cool how this thread just keeps coming back :p
