Thread: How to exert FULL control over your dreams!

I wish something like this could work for me. It's a neat idea!

Unfortunately, I have issues with dialing numbers in dreams. Cell phones don't operate the way they should!

I tried something like this in a lucid I had last night, except I just used a house phone and dialed 0 for an operator, I asked them to do something and they just started bitching me out saying thats not their job and they are just an operator lol

LOL Lucid fail.

I think the whole point of this technique is to take the pressure of having to control everything by yourself and to transfer the power to someone else to perform a certain task for you. Because you believe in the powers of the one asked, you're sure it'll work, and therefore WILL work for real.
A different member said that he asks his father to arrange something for him. Like, hey dad I want to see that girl from school, please.
Well, son, she's waiting in the kitchen.
Why, thanks dad, you're just awesome.
Hey Kelly.
Why did your father invite me to your kitchen? That's kinda weird.
etc.

This sounds like a great idea, just not sure if it will work for everyone. Also most of the things you are listing can be done with nothing more than a thought, and a belief that what you are thinking is true.

This one could work for me. I use a cell phone avidly, on a consistent daily basis. I'll try and see if I can do this in a lucid dream, though I've never used a phone in a dream before. Come to think of it, the only actual thing I've used in a dream other than my own bodily functions would be a red crayon. It just appeared in my hand.

This idea seems awesome, i'll be sure to try it out soon as i can. Two thumbs up.

This looks like a technique that would work for me. I use my Iphone 24/7 (well..almost :p) and have always wanted to "contact" my Sub-C

For those without phones... you just tweak your schema in dream and talk your "Sub-C" Or "God" directly without a phone.

Indeed - I've found that just by saying what I want blatantly to myself in a dream, I can exert full control over my dreamworld. Great feeling!


Also, to the OP: Like everyone else has said, this is for those who are attached to their cell phones, like I am, but clearly isn't for everyone. Sensationalist title of the topic sucked me in. XP It's a good method, in case you can't just ask your Sub-C to do it for you like I see others can.

hmm. interesting. i tried the same thing but with a computer monitor that just came up in my head randomly one lucid i had. what i found was that it wasnt entirely reliable, but it definitely worked some of the time. keep doing what works for you.

Interesting, I will try this.

I've found that it all comes down to confidence in dreams. When people say "this wouldn't work for me" I believe they're creating a self fulfilling prophecy. Whatever you can pass off as believable in a dream can happen in a dream. If you want to do something but have any doubt in the back of your mind, it usually doesn't work. So if you pull out your phone absolutely knowing something will happen, then something will. This happens with flying a lot for me. I know I want to fly, but unless I truely convince myself I can fly I only end up jumping a decent height and kinda glide down. So next time truely convince yourself you can do something before attempting it.

Are you calling the subconsciousness when you are awake, as a R.C?

I have been using cell phones in my dreams, but they usually power off, add more numbers than typed, miss dial a lot etc. But I remember the numbers I dial.

Couple more ideas based on the cell phone technique:

1. Make an email address for your sub-c in real...(?) eh, waking life and email him/her/it in your dream.

2. Put a sticker or a fake button on your TV remote, labeled "sub-c".

I think I'll try to email my totem tonight... Just wonder if wolves can type? Oh but he doesn't have to, he just does what I ask. He's a nice guy.

Or better yet, draw a little circle and color it red (=a button) in your dream journal note book. The button either summons up your sub-c or calls it. Maybe you'll need some lines to represent the speaker and the microphone as well.

Hmm... Except one has to draw these on every page unless you use some sort of writing pad under the note book, which has some empty space on top.

It worked! I SMSed the idea to my sister, who replied emailing or SMSing is best option because then you can read what you have sent in the morning. I was bit confused and tried to explain it happens in the dream, until it hit me. I'll email my sub-c before I'll go to bed. So I did.

I asked a peaceful anthropological mission through Stargate. On the other side it would be high grass taiga with some nomad tents/yurtas.

I don't remember going through the Stargate, but I was there looking at the tents... wondering where are all the people! Sub-c really takes things literally. Wasn't able to control the dream so much. When I was trying to email to my sub-c from the MALP, I began to wake up.

This "emailing to my subconscious" -method seems to be working for me on some level.

Haven't had second episode for my Stargate dream yet but some things where I suggest cooperation to my sub-c do work.

First one is bit unclear. There has been Mr. Plow just next to the building where I live at 4.30 AM!!! That woke me up two mornings in the row, until I emailed my sub-c telling him the plow noise is no risk for me (not like a wild beast or what ever people had to be aware of). Next morning I woke up when my alarm goes off and I hear the plow... So, maybe I got used to it, maybe it was my sub-c.

Second test was, when I explained my sub-c my conscious mind can't remember dreams so well and asked for cooperation in this issue as well. Next morning I had NINE dreams written down to my journal! My personal record!

It seems to be bit tricky and the subconscious doesn't just take orders as well as I thought based on my first night's experience or then I just don't remember those pre-programmed dreams. I have mentioned that to him as well.

Had a short lucid episode, where I was writting to my journal, noticed I'm dreaming and began to write: "This is a dream.", but I had no idea what to do, nothing changed in the dream, I was there with the notebook and then I slowly woke up.

I'm going to try the cell phone method tonight. btw should i look at the contact "my-subconsious" IRL several times throughout the day so i can know that it's there in me dream?

oh and can i ask it for powers?
or can i ask it to make future dreams lucid?

As far as I understand, you can ask just about anything, including future dreams. Althouh I didn't actually have lucid dream, it was rather pre-programmed. Just the end of my Stargate dream turned lucid and I began to wake up.

I'll try to email my subconscious now, several hours before I'll go to sleep just to see if the effect is stronger. I'll let you know the results.

No such luck. Just remember having a dream working on high and wobbly scaffolding putting some support bars on it. And not being afraid of the heights as I am in waking life.

ReMuSoMeGa, that is an awesome technique! I wonder- I wouldn't be the bit surprised- that it works so well for you because you have the creativity to come up with something very unique on your own. I bet the fact that you created it, tried it out, and got positive results reinforced the fact that you are capable of Lucidity. That is a subtle (yet momentous) action to use your own creativity to break through to the next level, versus just using someone elses technique. You are probably calling upon your own inner mental strengths to achieve your intended will. Big Big Big difference, especially in a place where subtleness of thought matters Big Big Big time!

Id bet that if others who have yet to reach that state of lucidity were to use your technique and found it to not be as affective would be due, in part, that they themselves didn't create something and then have that immediate reinforcement. Perhaps the trick is in having the creativity and ability to come up with something on your own and then try it out. Now of course (and i put this in here for the more technical people) there are proven methods to reach lucidity that we all have used...just excited to hear something brand spankin' new!

Interesting technique for hardcore cellphone users. I'm not a hardcore cellphone user though. I barely use my cellphone. I dislike cellphones actually. So I should rely on something else. Your idea can be generalized. Take some dream object that makes it easier to have faith in whatever you want to change in your dream. For example a remote control.

And my pre-programmed dreams continue. Sort of anyway. I thought I'll change the direction and give up the Stargate dreams for a moment, because they don't seem to work, so I sent an email to my subconscious (yes, before I went to sleep) and asked it to give me a dream, where I walk into the Big Bang Theory/Leonard's & Sheldon's building, knock on Penny's door and kiss her (that should be appropriate for the first "date").

But I don't remember having that dream, until couple nights later I had a dream about Sheldon saying: "Golf is relatively easy.", and another dream where Sheldon was... being Sheldon.

Second season ended couple weeks ago here in Finland and they've placed My name is Earl to the spot. So I'd like to believe my Sheldon dreams are caused by my pre-programming. Lucky me, I didn't kissed Sheldon and I surely hope Earl won't open Penny's door.

I wonder if the "relatively easy" (yes, it was in English) was a dream sign, because my dream signs are my relatives, but usually they are just themselves. Although I've seen their names written as well.
