Although I am fairly new to dreamviews, I have been lucid dreaming for about 4 months now. What I have noticed is that very few of my lucid dreams have come from remembering to do reality checks, and I am not great at recognising particular oddities in the dream world.
Most of my lucid dreams have come from what is perhaps the most obvious sign that I was dreaming: The fact that I was not in my bed.
Almost all your dreams (apart from perhaps FA) take place somewhere completely different eg. sometimes at a school, or workplace, somewhere from your childhood etc.
While RCs, and DS work for many people. What has worked well for me is trying to stay aware of where I am every second of the day. It's very hard, but it has often carried through into the dreamworld. I also use RCs ontop of this just to make sure I am not dreaming.
I think if this technique can be mastered, and you can be continually aware of yourself, where you are, and what is happening around you, it will be a lot easier to recognise dreamsigns.
I'll post a tibetan exercise from 'Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming' when I can find the book
Does this work for anyone else?
