Thread: Lucid Encouragement

I finally got to the moon in one of my LDs a couple of nights ago and this was the picture that I used to always look at for encouragement!

EDIT: IDK why the image uploaded so small. Click the 2nd one : It is the larger image.

Woah! I just thougt about this book:
Stravaganza series

The people literally sleep with an object and during the night they are transported to a different dimension Italy called Talia where lots of things are switched like gold/silver and science/magic. Love it!

Agree on this one.

Waking Life and Ghost in the Shell are both my all time favorites, for encouragement.

I read Life of Pi back in high school, and I finally felt the need to see it before it's no longer available in 3D at the local theaters. Life of Pi was an oustanding movie. And to say the least, the serene ocean scenes and effects in 3D were, hands down, the encouragement I needed.

The Pendragon book series is pretty cool. I'd love to goto that world.
There's also a cool idea for teleportation in those books. I have yet to try it though.

I just finished reading the Lost City of Faar about a half hour ago, now I want to go to the ruins of Faar on one of those bubble boats. :I
I'd also like to suggest the game "Journey" for the PS3. I believe it's downloadable from the PSN store thingy. I watched Pewdiepie's playthrough of it and it was just stunning! It would be tons of fun to try evading those big stone snake things. :3 As for books, any history textbook would probably do.

Also good fighting, great ideas for LDing, and the saddest love story ever . if you like time/space travel you will like this. They are never in space, but they go to different "worlds" which is really different dimensions.

Thank you so much for this tip! It is truly a beautiful manga, first time I've ever cried from reading
Oh and the concept of mulitple dimensions is freaking cool!
Only downside is that I read all of it in a little more than 1 day.

Edit: Going to bed now, hopefully I'll dream about this wonderfull manga! ^^

I know! It is such a beautiful manga, I need to read that again. The love story is so deep. :')

Edit: Also want to explore the Skyrim world, or better yet, the whole Tamriel! :'D

When I first saw this I didn't know what your pic was or your name. I love SAO so much . Watched it in a day and I am rewatching it now. It is a LD.

IDK if anyone's posted this yet, but the song Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds by the Beatles reminds me of LDing....not to mention it's an awesome song!

This song always inspires me:



It just feels so surreal and dream-like.

Even just looking at clouds used to inspire me to lucid dream. Can't do that much now though because of how muggy and crappy it is here during the winter. But summer skies usually refresh my lucid interest and inspiration.

Outro by m83 and where is my mind by the pixies help encourage lucid dreams for me, aswell as being great songs.

Fantastic book for lucid dreaming is the dream merchant by Isabel hoving. If only I owned it

Watched Source Code the other day and it reminded me a lot about Lucid Dreaming because of the way the guy was inside of his own reality.

Don't try think about it too much when your going to sleep initially. Set your alarm for 4 in the morning and then sleep on your back when you awake. This for me helps 10 fold!

I see no one here has mentioned Shpongle. Shpongle is a music group that produces amazing, complex, surreal music.
Botanical Dimensions is the first of a series of incredible interconnected songs. Here is the full movement if you wish to here it.

Some other great ones:
Exhalation
Divine moments of truth

The Flashbulb is also great, though his songs do vary from extremely relaxing to face-meltingly hectic.
.Mp3 (one of my favorites)
Sentroline Voyage

This could be you

BIOSHOCK.

One of my all time favorite series! I've always wanted to explore Rapture, both during the events in the games and even before that! Setting things on fire with just a snap of my fingers sounds pretty fun too
Or being a Big Sister! Man, I could just go on and on...

Other than that, some other games that inspire me are the Fallout series, Skyrim, and Deus Ex. Oh, and Pokemon too! That's all I can think of from the top of my head

And, personally, I enjoy MUDs! For those that don't know, it's an online game entirely in text. So what it lacks in graphics it makes up in storytelling big time! I don't know why but I've always wanted to visit those worlds and actually "see" what they look like.

ajhsfkjhgaskfhgaljdshfkjhafg off topic: Who has played bioshock infinite because holy shit its amazing

I like "The Green Lantern"...I had a few awesome lucid and non-lucid dream as the sequel of the movie.

I'll Meet You There - Owl City

On The Wing - Owl City

West Coast Friendship - Owl City

The Neverending Story - Ende (A world where all your wishes are granted but you slowly lose all memory of you world? Sounds like an LD to me.)

NiGHTS Into Dreams - Sega

A movie I really liked is Source Code. It wasnt as well known but really struck me as being so like lucid dreaming.

Welcome to Mystery by Plain Whit T's is a great song, it seemed like they were talking about lucid dreaming almost, if you look at the lyrics

Imagine a place you can always escape to
An island off the coast of nowhere
A new destination of your own creation
Just waiting till you choose to go there

Blue tree tops and velvet skies
Blue ready to blow your mind

Ooh, this is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
Welcome to mystery

Imagine a city where everything's pretty
And you, sir, you rule the kingdom
You call the shots, you can do what you want to
Oh, just imagine the freedom

It helped me during my wild's it increased my awarness a bit more at least
