Lucid Dream Hands

**Ikkalebob** · 09-01-2011 03:45 PM

When I look down at my hands to stabilise, they are most certainly not the the same as my waking hands. The patterns and creases I would see in my normal hands are distorted to the point where instead of being made up of lots of little lines, they are composed of many circles of all different sizes. Occasionally I have a couple more or less fingers than normal, but the patterns are always different. Interestingly though, they are only unusual when I am lucid, but that's probably because I am more observant when Lucid. What do your dream hands look like?

My hands have around 18 fingers each, but they look normal if I consentrate

By the way, your avatar, is...is it moving? It keeps staring at me!!

In the few lucid dreams I had so far, my hands always looked the same as when I'm awake. Except for a few small differences like scars on my hands not showing up in my dreams.

Mine are very blurry and my fingers are sometimes pointy and don't seem to stay still when I hold them in front of my face.

Funny thing is this RC doesn't always work for me. I have been in a scenario that is clearly a dream and I have looked at my hands to make sure and they were WAY messed up. I though to myself hmm am I dreaming? no way I am dreaming that would be crazy lol. Sometimes I am more convinced that the dream is reality than the waking world.

If I inspect my hands closely, they seem to appear disappointingly normal, at least lately. There's been all kinds of weird stuff when I've looked, though. Generally I have more fingers and my whole hand is bubbling and pulsating.

At initial glance, I usually count my fingers before anything else. When I do this, I usually either count 5 or 6 fingers; however, if the number turns out to be 6, I'm often unsure as to whether I counted properly, and end up counting two or three more times to make sure. It's like I lose count of how many fingers I have because I can't focus properly. Extra fingers usually just fan out in the same way as my other fingers, but I've had the occasional one that would branch off another finger; in this case the added finger is always small.

When I look closer at my hands, the lines and creases appear normal, often more visible than in waking life... It kinda reminds me of a sharp, high-def picture. Although the details on my hands are amazingly good, though, the outlines of them are slightly blurry; the edges aren't as well defined.

I've had my hands be perfectly fine before when I didn't have the intent to really RC. I had a lucid a few days ago where I intentionally sat and counted out 10 fingers on each hand and wiggled them one by one

I love wiggling extra fingers!

It feels really strange, especially the ones that branch off my other fingers!

I use my hands to stabalize my dreams. Their the same as mine in waking life except I have extra fingers. If I sabalize my dream their the same as they are normally.

Becuase of posting this last night I had a dream where everyone's hands had weird red growths on them. Didn't get lucid though, I thought that would have been an obvious dreamsign

Aw, I know what that's like! But you just have to train yourself more to question if you're dreaming; if you're not aware enough in the first place, you won't notice dream signs. Keep working at it.
