It's called dream incubation and it's indeed can be used for lucid dreaming. Though i personally not have much luck/experience with this, dream incubation haven't worked much for me. |

I'm sure we've all recalled dreams that we had, which could be linked to the activities the day before. That is to say, you talk to your friend about something like pirates and then that night or early in the morning, one of your dreams involves pirates or anything related to pirates, like being on a large boat in an ocean. I am curious as to why something like this would show up, while other things that same day you spoke about pirates did not show up. |

Ah, well I've heard of that before. Of course, I thought dream incubation was more of a process, not much of some random occurrence during the day that ends up in one's dream. |

^ It's called Day Residue (I guess you haven't read your ETWOLD? Highly recommended if you're interested in this stuff). Dream incubation is when you're able to visualize something just before sleep and then dream about it - which is a way to use day residue to create a particular dream, so it does fit into this thread in a way. |

Ah, didn't heard about that term before apparently, either way i very rarely encounter anything from day residue in dreams even if i was doing something through whole day, no clue why. Maybe that's the same reason dream incubation don't works much for me as well. |

I can't say I have read about that, but a friend once told me that dreams are nothing but a residue from your waking life. I thought it was an interesting take because I don't see dreams as having any meaning, unless one interprets his/her own dreams. I'll try to find this ETWOLD, though. Thanks. |

It stands for Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming, written by Stephen LaBerge. Heh sorry, Im so used to just writing ETWOLD. |
