Whenever I dream I am watching it take place from a third persons POV, however, the person that I focus on is me.(if that makes any sense)
Is there any way to allow/force myself to be "the star" as opposed to the viewer?

Well, if u became lucid u could just focus on changing it to first person view. If u want to change it even when your non-lucid mabye try saying to yourself before u go to bed "My view will be first-person" or " I will see through my own eyes". U get the picture :)
Ah, I sometimes get that. when I become lucid, sometimes I need to re-write dream perspective. I usually just sort of shake my head, close my eyes or spin and that fixes it. Then I increase clarity and I'm ready to go!Quote:

You're lucky. It's hard to see ourselves in a LD. I think logically the person you're looking at (you) is in fact a projection of you. In other words, you remain in the first person POV, and you're looking at yourself as if it were another individual.
My advise is to attempt to interact with this other "you". Try to impersonate this individual as being you subconscience. Say it out loud : "Here I see my subconscious self, and he / she has something important to tell me".
Stay focused on the duality, otherwise you might loose focus. If this other person does not say anything to you without you ordering this projection to say something, it is still in your control and will obey your commands. If this person says something at his or her own will, pay attention.
Well, actually, we almost always dream in First Person, but when we recall the dream we see ourselves in third person. Since everything is in our head we can see it from different views, we see everything in first person but still we know how we look in third person in the dream. I have confirmed this by, in my lucid dream, speak and say "I'm seeing everything in first person", and when I woke up I recalled it in third person (mostly) and could remember what I'd said.
