Ok, admittedly I've never had a lucid dream before so I haven't got to test it yet.

But what makes me sort of curios are those "rules" concerning lucid dreaming.
by that i mean things like: rubbing your hands or spinning to make the world more vivid etc. ( I hope you see where I'm getting at)

Aren't you supposed to sort of make those rules up on your own?

I mean, you decide what's happening, therefore when you say i blink or snip with my fingers I'll have instant vividness or something like that.

Isn't that a bit of a misconception if you already tell people what you should do?
It's like you already limit their imagination even though we all want to achieve the opposite.

Like, shouldn't we drop those rules?

(sorry, I am not trying to be philosophical or anything. It's just an idea I thought I'd mention.)
