Dream continuations?

[mattg]

Ive been keeping a detailed dream journal the past 2 weeks or so and ive noticed that i seem to have some level of dream continuation fairly often. I got lucky my 3rd day trying to lucid dream but havent been able to experience one since. Is dream continuation common? Can i use this to induce lucid dreams? The past two nights ive experienced this to some level, last night all 3 of my dreams took place in a grocery store, the night prior all 3 of my dreams involved me riding a motorcycle. Im really working hard towards lucid dreaming and just looking to get some tips beyond the standard ones you read in every tutorial, does any one have personal insight they can share with me that helped them become lucid?

Sounds like you could use this as a dream sign. ^^ Dunno if you know what those are or not, but they're simply common themes that seem to repeat in your dreams. They can be places, people, objects, just about anything. You can use these as an indication that you're dreaming, so that if you end up noticing one during a dream, you could question your reality and become lucid. So yeah, I'd definitely take note of these repeating things that you keep experiencing in your dreams, and use them to become lucid. I couldn't tell you if it's common or not, because everyone's different when it comes to dreaming. As for me, I didn't really have any dream signs (or as far as I could tell). I simply worked on using the DILD method, and all of my LDs so far have been DILDS. If you're looking for good ways to become lucid, just experiment with lots of different techniques, and not just one. Some techniques will work better for you than others.

If you remember 3 dreams in a night that's very good, most people only remember 1 or so. I'm at like 4-5 if I try but I still don't get lucid often. Onto your tip, whenever in WL when you notice things repeating a lot, RC and become aware for like 10 mins

When I was younger, I used to have my dreams continue all the time. Now it isn't as common, but I still have them sometimes. If I really like a dream, I want it to continue and when I fall back asleep...it does! Like Dragon said, you could use it as a dream sign. Before you go to bed, you could also just imagine the same dream scene you were in while in the last dream and visualize becoming lucid there. Getting lucid takes some time and dedication. Just read up on it all you can, stay motivated/positive, and you will get them! Good luck
