Thread: Having trouble changing my surroundings at will

I’ve read about others that say its easier to expect that something may be around a corner or after looking for a door and going threw it as apposed to just appearing in front of you.

Try spinning around in circles.

The mind usually likes a transition effect, I think.

I don't know why I didn't just go outside and fly to the place, but in theory I should be able to just teleport, right? And when I was trying to make things materialize out of nothingness, sometimes it wouldn't work. Any tips on how to fine-tune my superpowers?

You should be happy that you have very faulty superpowers. Being able to imagine everything you desire indicates that your dreams are limited to your mere imagination, which means that you have entirely cut yourself off from the Creative Collective Consciousness. You see, Lucid Dreamers achieve Complete Control by isolating themselves to their own small mind. It is a questionable benefit at a very high price.

NOT having complete control indicates that you are still held within the province of the Higher Collective Mind which takes it upon itself to edit and limit and otherwise restrict your dreaming for what it supposes is your own good.

But keep trying. If you are sincere and hard working, you too will be able to cut yourself off from the rest of Humanity and from all things Spiritual, and you will be able to call yourself a Master Lucid Dreamer.

Try spinning or opening up a new layer of eyes. Both of these put me in a new location the majority of the time.

Also, we should consider that Dreams are somewhat complicated acts of Creation. Perhaps they can not be summoned in a mere moment. What aI have noticed in my own Dream Work is that the Mind requires a week or two to work up a dream to meet my specifications. You just can't will to have a dream and then have it that night, unless, of course, it was very similar to a past dream, in which case, the dream scenes and characters can be borrowed and updated rather quickly. But if you should want a new dream for the first time, then you should give it about week or two of contemplation to give your Dream Mind a chance to put the proper amount of creative work into it.
