Tattoo ideas that symbolize dreaming/lucid dreaming....I want your ideas!

**CosmicEpiphany** · 01-20-2014 04:18 AM

So yes that's how much I love lucid dreaming. I have some tattoos at the moment of brain chemistry i.e. acetylcholine, dopamine, and serotonin. I want another piece and I would really like to come up with something that symbolizes dreaming or lucid dreaming. What better way to come up with a great idea than crownd sourcing. Any idea you have let me know. I don't care how silly you might think it is or how "out there" you might feel your idea is....I want any ideas...because I'm struggling here. Lucid dreaming is a wonderful skill and such an amazing insight into the human mind, I find few things as interesting. So what what do you guys think?

I have the word "dream" in my side, and people can read it only when I'm sleeping on my back

Thanks to this post I discovered that I'm not the only one who have tattooed lucid dream stuff!!

My idea might sound a bit boring here, but anyway. I would go for a tatto with the text "Awake yet?" or "Still Dreaming?" And the text should be in a kind of wiggly style so it's almost looks like you read it thru water. And with some nice color to. Just to make it as dream like as possible. Why not some gray or purple smoke around it. Well the idea could be representing, that one should be awake in our dream we call life as well as to wake up inside of our dream when we sleep in bed of course.

I almost forgot, this tattoo would work best on the inside of the forearm. Because then it could work like a RC

Yes I forgot to say I've been toying with idea of a RC type of tattoo. The original idea was to have something between my thumb and pointer finger so it could be easily checked all the time...but I like to be able to cover my tattoos up because I'm an engineer and I need to look professional. Which really stinks because I would love to do this. This makes me think about getting a small tattoo on my palm that wouldn't be very noticeable, that I could use as a RC all day. I still wanna see jers25's dream lotus flower!!

That's mine. I reality check when I see it (although in the winter it's usually covered up).

I have a lizard on my right shoulder and a dragonfly on my left. I was lucky enough to find them on a vision quest and a medicine wheel a dozen years ago. They have accompanied me on my walk ever since. The lizard reminds me that I create and can control my dreams. And the dragonfly reminds me that I am in control of and create my life.

Awesome tattoo and Donnie Darko figure

I would do a small water droplet that says "Reality?" or something similar

Very nice tattoo! Great input everyone and thanks. I'm thinking back to my original idea...a small tattoo that I can see often throughout the day to serve as a RC. I'm actually thinking of placing it on the base of my right palm, below my thumb. Still not sure what, but this discussion has definitely greased the gears in my head.

Well, if you want a tattoo in your palm, then I have another idea for you

Do a circle with a smal text around or in the circle that says: "Do RC here". You know the classic finger thru palm RC.

If a simple circle is to boring to look at, then do a night sky with stars and planets. Or a normal sky with some clouds in different colors inside the circle, to make the insde of the circle symbolise a current dream of yours. Or maybe a wiggly question mark inside the circle with a lot of colors that blends in together around the question mark
