Thread: Control in non lucid

In non-lucid dreams I have some kind of control, in the way that if something I don't like happens, something changes and the dream goes on more pleasantly. For example, I really fucking hate bugs, and in a dream someone had a collection of butterflies, I wished he would take them apart from me, and he hid them under a bed and I never saw them again during the dream. In other dream, I lost a train, and a few seconds after another train arrived and took me to my destination. But I have never changed something by will, it's more like my dream detects if I don't like something and changes it without me doing or noticing anything.

Man, that's the same thing I have in my non-lucids. But only since I'm LDing. It's like my subconscience knows I don't like it and remembers my thoughts that I can do anything in a dream and it "thinks it" for me before "I" can think it.

Like there was an animal I really don't like underneath some furniture getting closer to me and my mind just thought "no, that's not it, it's something else". And when that animal came to view, it morphed into something cute. I remember being surprised and strangely empowered, as if I had an ally, a guardian on my side helping me out.

Another time, there was something scary and I "decided" to throw a sleeping granade at it. Never made a decision before in a non lucid. That dream turned into LD in a few minutes after that.

Is it possible, that those dreams would turn into LD if they lasted longer?
