Hey, first of all, how is everyone? Boy I love this community. Filled with so many friendly people who help me so much. I hope you're making progress, I know I am. Slowly, but surely.
Anyway, I wanted to ask about lighting. Last night I had several lucid dreams and in all of them the lighting was rather dim. Anybody have any good tips for increasing lighting or overall clarity of vision? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys and as Mr. T would say, "Keep dreamin' fools!"
A helmet with a lightning rod on top?
To increase clarity, just try to engage as many of your senses as possible. Feel things, taste things, smell things, use vigorous movement, listen intently. Of course you'll have to be lucid to purposely do that.
Try finding a dimmer knob for the brightness
Say "Lights on fool!" snap your fingers and expect it to happen.
We love you too! :DQuote:

I don't think you can change lighting conditions in LD's (at least indoors).
For example today I had a lucid dream where I was in a rather dark basement only lit by moonlight, so I thought, hey I'll try the lights,and the lighting remained the same. The only thing I had control over light wise was my ability to see in the dark.
I also remember watching in a movie that stated you can't change light levels in lucid dreams.
It's possible to change lighting in lucid dreams if you go about it in an unusual manner if the other methods don't work.
This is untrue.. I've changed the light levels in my lucid dreams (both while indoors and outdoors).Quote:

Try imagining yourself with a bright ball of light in your hand and then releasing it into the sky/room.
Heh, cool. Thanks for the tip Barns:D
I will try that. Thank you.Quote:

One interesting thing though is in my most recent lucid dream I tried to experience as many senses as I could so I could make the dream more vivid, mainly touch; to say the least I was thoroughly impressed.Quote:

Just remember that you are dreaming. There is no light in the first place.
