It's possible, technically, but you'd be bound to miss a lucid at least one night, because of the end of your rem and such.

1 looong Semi lucid per night. The only problem is how much I'm able to remember when awake.

Never tried it, never experienced it.
But, I don't think that that would be very healthy.
Personally I think 3 lucids a week are more then enough. Or something like 2 full lucids and 2 semi-lucids.
You need to give some freedom to your subconsciousness, and let the dream go on its own.
For me dream analysis is very important, so even if I could achieve LD every night for a year, I would not go down that path.

Considering you can have several lucids/night, it is relatively easy to do that.

Having a 1 LD / day ratio doesn't seem unreasonable.
But having a LD every single night seems very difficult.
There are way too many things that can mess with your recall, not to mention the occasional dryspell.

Erm what do you mean? o.o

I'm saying that many things can have a negative effect on your dream recall.
A bit of stress, having to change your sleep rhythm, medication...
There are so many things that can cause you to go one or multiple nights without recalling any dreams.
This would make it very difficult to have a lucid dream every single night for a whole year.

Achieving 365 ld's within a year is a different story.

What about natural recall? I don't need to journal at all to remember over 4 dreams each night.

I suppose it is possible if you can forgive the occasional interruption every week or two. As someone else stated, maintaining a 1ld/day ratio isn't impossible (seeing as I had 6 in one night once and 3-4 several times). If I had to put a number on my current "ratio" I'd say that I have 200 to 270 lucid dreams per year at this rate, and that's without trying. I believe that with any focus someone lucidity prone (if you don't mind me coining a term here9 could easily do 2/night every night.

And what did you all meant by having more than 1 ld per night? How does it feel like?

Several lucid dreams in one night. You know, like several dreams per night but more than one lucid. Not sure how one would explain it otherwise.
It feels good, obviously.

So from the answers on here, it's possible.
But it's extremly difficult, due to stuff you can't help, like dry spells, stress, and recall
