      Making mirrors reflect clearly?

      Does anyone get clear reflections from mirrors in there dreams? Are there any methods for making one shine clearly and truly? In dreams I have come across and looked into mirrors several times, things are always fuzzy and I always look weird. I have read this from others and took it to be accepted as how they look in dreams, but surely somebody has gotten a clear reflection before and maybe knows how to make this happen?

      Perfection would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve. But clarity increasing methods do exist. Rubbing your hands together, spinning around on the spot, and even shouting "CLARITY NOW!" can help improve dream clarity.

      Yeah, but that doesn't necessarily apply to mirrors. From my own limited experience with mirrors, I can have a nice vivid dream, but still have a slightly blurry reflection in any given mirror.

      I have never played around with making mirrors reflect clearer images, but I'm sure it's possible. Maybe trying to clean the smudges and blurs with windex or something might help. I'm on a DILD dry spell right now, so I can't really try anything myself unless I find the time to WILD, which doesn't happen often.

      I'm not sure how to make mirrors any clearer. I've never really considered the idea that they could be any different from mirrors in waking life, so their images are usually clear to me.

      But in my experience, I'd be happier if they were more fuzzy. Anytime I look in a mirror my reflection is either of myself as a kid, or something much more frightening.

      I almost always have very clear reflections in mirrors, it's something I notice. o:

      My suggestion is to try to see your face clearly instead of trying to make the actual mirror clearer. The doubt that's built up over that could hinder you, so a fresh approach might help.

      Also agreeing with acatalephobic, mirrors are fuckin' frightening.

      You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.
