Past tense dream sign

[Howie]

I used this last night in concert with the WBTB method. Have you ever heard someone say that they cannot picture someones face, even if they are close? It is said to picture them in the context of actually doing something, you can then visualize their face. At any rate this kind of applies to this---- I think My friend Shawn is a very very common dream sign in many of my dreams. When I see him in waking life I always forget to do a reality check. So I found myself awake after a dream. With no surprise Shawn was in it. *What I then did was picture the last two or three time that I had actually seen Shawn and then pertained that to dreaming and the like. Almost like a late RC. But it worked. I became lucid three consecutive times after that. Shawn being the "sign" in two of them.

Like when splash was in there, but a couple of times, we actually had exactly the same dream at the same time, & if she did not gain Lucidity by then, I would tell her she was dreaming (DSILD). (if you want to see more of that, look in our DJs!!)
