Can some one please tell me what exactly a dream guide is and all about it or point me to a thread that explains dream guides. It would be greatly appreciated!

DG - Dream Guide - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views Some say it's your manifestation of your subconscious, some that it's just a random DC.

To quote one of my other posts. Dream guides aren't something that's fundamental to dreams, like a science or anything. They're just another fun thing to do in a lucid dream, like flying. Like most things in dreams, it's an "it exists because you expect it to exist" sort of thing. Many people like to think of it as their subconscious speaking to them. But that's just their opinion. A lot of people tend to take the term subconsciousness out of perspective. When you dream, despite the illusion of consciousnesses, a lot of the logic centers of your brain are still asleep. This disconnection creates the illusion that your own thoughts aren't coming from you. Much in the same way a dog can bark at a mirror, not realizing they are seeing themselves. It also has the double effect of allowing thoughts and ideas, which may normally be suppressed by logic, to come to you unfiltered. If that's your definition of a subconsciousness, then yes, a dream guide is your subconsciousness. But so is everything else in a dream. A dream guide is just a familiar face your mind has put on this manifestation of thought.
