Thread: Any Lucid Dreamers have a totem?

Would the fact that it's gone help you become lucid, since you expect it to be there, but it isn't?

I once read about somebody who did this, and might give it a try: You set the background of your phone to say 'Are you dreaming?'. You pick it up in the dream world, and if the background is something else, then you're dreaming.

I don't know 'cause I never remember of it in dreams, I always go lucid by counting fingers or because I just know that it's a dream. Also I've never gone lucid in my room, so I couldn't notice that the totem is not where it should be.
