Thread: Any master LD'ers out there?

Well I can lucid dream about every other day now, and I use WILD to induce these lucid dreams. So if you have any questions about lucid dreaming or WILDing you can always PM me

So far it has improved my awareness more than my dreaming; it has been a while since I have missed a beat of my heart.

You will be able to customize the song or even use a voice recording when it is complete, just like with the REM Cycles in Liquid Dream.

Cloud is a natural LDer. I know of one other, as well. I'd say it's different from being a master as mastering LDing takes some work. I'd say Mastery is more in the control and techniques you utilize.

I'm new to the site, but I'm a natural LDer. I would have to agree that no one is really a 'master LDer', but rather people have varying degrees of LDing experience. I've just recently discovered that my kind of dreaming is called lucid dreaming, and that some people actually work to have LD's (it's still sort of setting in for me, as I still think of it as a normal thing, and no offence to anyone who isn't a natural but also really easy). For me I just go to bed thinking about what I want to dream about and I dream about it, changing things throughout the dream as I see fit. Since I've never actually tried to LD or used any sort of method I wouldn't consider myself a master, but rather just someone who is lucky. You all (people who are aware of what LD's are, and who actively try to have them) are extremely admirable. C:

You're so lucky. It must be nice to have a place inside your mind where you can go every night just to be free. I hit a really bad dry spell, so getting lucid is really tough for the time being. Even then I can only have around 3 a month. Are you good with control and stuff?

Welcome to DV, by the way. Hope you enjoy it here.

Heh. Yeah. I feel so bad because I've always taken it for granted. I dream about silly stuff like going dates with my bf (not quite that silly since he currently lives in Cali, while I'm living in Fl so we haven't gotten to go out for some time), but even so I never even thought about how wonderful it would be to learn to do it if it wasn't something you did unconsciously. I have always loved it though, I sleep a lot, and take naps often. i'm so sorry that must be terrible. Do you use some sort of method or something? I didn't know my younger brother and sister (twins) couldn't lucid dream so I sort of taught them to when they were having a series of bad nightmares. I just made up a story with them and told them to finish it in their sleep and they did, and I made them tell me how it finished when they woke up. (not a real technique I know, but it worked for them.) Anywho good luck on your LDing! I think it's amazing what you guys are doing. I guess I'm good with control. I kind of treat my dreams like a movie or book I'm writing or directing. I have a good idea of what I want it to be like, and If I don't like something going on or get a better idea, i'll sort of like rewind it and change it or just fast-forward. .-. Sorry for typing so much. And Thanks for the welcome. This site is really cool so far. C:

Well there's lots of methods for inducing lucid dreams. DILD (Dream induced lucid dream) involves doing reality checks (basically tests to see if you're dreaming during waking life), MILD (mnemonically induced lucid dream) involves repeating a phrase or mantra to yourself that's supposed to work it's way into your mind and make you lucid, and the last but moat intriguing way is a WILD (Wake initiated Lucid Dream, I believe). You actually go straight from being awake to going into a dream immediately. Right now I use DILD, which is probably the most common technique.

Thanks, hope I can have a lucid soon (tonight maybe? ), there's so much stuff I want to do.

Heh. Yeah I sorta glanced through them on the noobie thread. They all sound pretty interesting. I've actually tried WILD a while ago, but the was in an attempt to experience the hallucinations before the dreaming. I didn't realize that it was a way to lucid dream, it just seemed like regular dreaming. :l Anywho lots of luck on the dreaming! I'm sure you'll do it. Goodnight, and Sweet dreams.

I don't think anyone can have a lucid dream every night. At least with a DILD.

WILDs however are different. t

I'm fairly certain i've had lucid dreams pretty much every night, and nap since I can remember, although before recently I've never thought of my dreams as that. I don't really use a technique. WILD or DILD. From what I've read though I understand what you mean. If I were trying to have a LD I imagine using DILD thing would be rather uneffective for me. If I didn't know I was dreaming I can't umagine I'd think to check. Whichever works for you though I wish you the best of luck. C:

Welcome to Dream Views, Voluptuously.

Actually, DILD is just a 'dream induced lucid dream'. This is the same as just being in a dream and looking around and noticing 'hey, I'm in a dream.' It's just a lucid dream that you realize is a dream, while you're actually in a dream. It's a pretty broad term, really. But even if you are lucid every night - unless you are consciously going from fully awake and into your lucid dream while your body falls asleep, you are likely having a DILD.

Oh cool. Thanks.
