Woah.

I recalled 7 dreams tonight.... I didn't do much speacial, I just read this wiki. And I did the WILD counting method (1 I'm dreaming, two I'm dreaming, etc) They were all highly detailed, and I remember them really well! Woah!

[sloth]

Where they lucid? --or-- Did you have control?

[BeautifulDreamer]

No.. It would have been cool if they were though.. Nice situations. (I actually died in one! Check out my DJ to view them)

Do you mean this page? http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Lucid_Dreamin...g:_Dream_Recall Because that page has the same information (actually less info) than this website.

[BeautifulDreamer]

Yes, but I like how it's all in a nice bundle.

You know what? I read the same thing at about 8AM this morning. I did a WBTB and had at least 6 different dreams, all very vivid.

Hmm... maybe I should try that. Any suggestions on how to get myself to wake up after about 5 hours of sleep without waking up my Mom, my dad, my brother, or my sister? I've got: iPod Nano with iPod Linux PSP with 2.60 firmware and homebrew (and PSP Alarm) An alarm clock that is very unreliable Any suggestions?

I would suggest trying to wake yourself naturally. When you are first trying to go to sleep, repeat to yourself "I will awaken after I have a dream, and I will remember the dream." This may not work the very first time, but if you keep doing it you should find yourself waking up after 4-6 hours with a dream fresh in your mind.

The thing is, I'm not capable of that because: http://www.dreamviews.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=32039

Well... You'd have to do a DILD, I think that's what it's called. Every 90 minutes do a reality check. Since most people have a dream period every 90 minutes, it should carry over to your dreams. If you can do something you can't in real life (put your finger through your hand, etc) you know you're dreaming.

Well currently my RC is pinching my arm, because when I do this in my dream the stinging is drastically reduced, and it feels like my arm is bloated and I've got one of the numbing needles you get for your teeth. But because it's getting REALLY annoying pinching myself all the time (especially when people ask me why the hell I am doing that) I'm going to try the RC where I imagine myself flying. So, if I imagine myself flying in real life, nothing happens. If I imagine myself flying in a dream, then I will fly (I should anyway, I've never actually imagined myself flying in a dream so I wouldn't know if it will work).

just tell your mom: hey mom, i need to wake up at four in the morning, so i was wondering if you could use you reliable alarm clock since mine is broke." if she says yes, then cool, if not, well it was worth a try.

I'm not sure about that RC. I've never used it, but it seems to me like after REPEATED attempts and failure at flying in real life, your consciousness might get fixated on a failed result. In other words, you get so used to failing, that you fail in a dream too. I'm not sure what to suggest though. Nobody else I've talked to has been able to use my dream signs. -sloth

Well so far my pinching one has worked 100%. I've tried it even before I came to this site, and also 2 nights ago in my second lucid dream since joining. All the time it worked. I'm not sure if the flying one works, because I've never done a flying RC in my dreams. Only the pinching RC and the remember what you've done all day RC.
