Has anyone ever become aware that they are dreaming and then just let the dream continue without intervening, I think it would be pretty cool:)

Yeah a bunch of times, never get much out of it though so don't do it often.
Cool..do you ever get bored of lding or is it still fun after 4690 ld's? and are you a natural lder, wish I was!Quote:

Not a natural, I had to practice my way up for lucidity.
I see. Do you have a lot of success with WBTB?Quote:

Yeah I agree with Hukif. I even feel as if I wasted an LD if I don't do SOMEthing. However, sometimes I let the LD start itself a bit, rather than force a particular scenery. I never know how long the dream will last, so I don't want to spend the whole thing trying to create the world around me. So I let my subconscious create the setting and maybe some characters, then I take over.
Cool topic.
ps. Hi Hukif! :okbyenow:
These are my favorite types of dreams. I like to let the dream play out, only intervening to steer a bit, keep things interesting, or react to situations. It is fun to watch your subconscious come up with crazy dream stuff. Being lucid means I can interpret it all as it is happening, like reading a good book or watching a movie.
I've never thought about it like that. But I've only had one lucid dream that I could control, the other two I just knew I was dreaming and woke up, so I don't have much experience with this. Is this a way to know what your subconscious is thinking? Sometimes I feel like I'm keeping secrets from myself, like I know something that I don't know or won't tell myself. It's hard to explain.Quote:

Damn! I'd kill to get as good as that! :lol: well, not really of course. But still.Quote:

I know how you feel!Quote:

I try to do the same, seems like when I try to control things I either wake up or everything just goes blank and becomes stupid, nothing there nothing to do. Only once have I had a really hard core lucid dream where I did what I wanted in a dream world where everything continued with doing whatever I wanted to.Quote:
