Thread: DC's knowledge.

OK, so for a while now I've been pursuing lucidity, like many of you, and it's for a few reasons, curiosity mostly, and there is something I've been wanting to try, i want to go lucid, and then gather DC versions of people i know, and then ask them questions about myself, what they think of me ETC. i was wondering if anyone has ever tried this, and what they got back from it. In my opinion the sub-conscious is an extremely mysterious thing, so I'm interested to know .

I tried. They told me to shut up and have fun because it was a dream. So I took their advice.
I'm pretty happy they didn't tell me what they (or my subconcious I guess) thought of myself. It could've gone either way but I'm happy to remain ignorant.

don't ask your dream friends what they think of you, unless you want to answer your question yourself, because DC's are just parts of your mind, so if they give you a straight answer it will be what YOU think your friends think of you.

You'll get answers based on what you expect that people think of you. Or you'll get random facts and jibberish. Might be fun to try out though

If you want to find out what they think about you, try to have a shared dream and ask the person who is with you. In dreams they most of the time tell the naked truth if they are not in a high level of lucidity!

I will be laughing about this all day.

Asking dream characters meaningful questions always turns out interesting. Several years ago, we were running a group exercise where everyone reported their DC's answers to a list of questions. Unfortunately, the responses were often nonsensical or overly cryptic.
