Exactly as the topic description says...
You've now succesfully WILD'd and are in the midst of a vivid Lucid Dream... what to do now? you think.
Suddenly the thought creeps up on you... let's lay down and try WILD'ing in my WILD!
Hmmm....
The effects would be what?
Well if it doesn't wake you up, the effect should be that you continue to lucid dream, unless you lose lucidity ofcourse. Maybe it would change your dream scenario. It could also possibly put you even deeper asleep as you are suggesting to yourself when you WILD that you need to be more and more relaxed etc (which means you go even deeper into trance, beyond alpha/theta stages). So perhaps it might even put you into delta sleep stage (something you can also do by meditating in a LD). This would be an interesting experience since there are no dreams there just a black void. Not many people can be aware in that stage....
As Xetrov said, you would be in a black void.
It would kind of ruin your LD, especially if it's wake-induced.
I've WILDed within dreams before a few times. Never a WILD within a WILD though.
The effect was that the non-lucid dream became a lucid dream. It was pretty freak each time.
That's a really interesting idea. Never done it but would love to try it out sometime.
I'm not sure what might happen in that situation so I expect that the completely unexpected would happen if I WILDed in a WILD.
I have a hunch this is what happens when I experience a whole series of WILDs. This has happened to me several times now.
I'll successfully WILD - which normally isn't easy for me. That always results in what is almost like a false awakening, as I find myself in exactly the same place and position I am laying, except now I'm dreaming.
I'll eventually wake up, but then I can WILD effortlessly. That happens over and over again - sometimes six or more times in sequence. After the last time it happened, just a few days ago, I started wondering if I was really waking up at all - or if I was just in FAs and then WILDing from those.
So the answer to your question from me is yeah... I think it is very possible this has been happening.
I've done that a couple of times also. But if I'm already in a lucid dream, no matter how it was achieved, I don't really see the point in trying to have another one within the first.Quote:

It made me semi-lucid, as I was totally out of control, everything was blurry, I wasn't even really lucid. I said to myself "This is a dream" but it was not me. It was my subconscious. I lost the "lucidity" after like 2 seconds, but later on in the dream, I was standing in this gigantic, indoor graveyard. It was amazing and beautifull. I was all alone, but I didn't find it scary. I suddenly realized, that I'd been lucid earlier in the dream, so I became lucid for real. It only lasted maybe 1 minute though.
I've never WILDed in a WILD, since I've never completely done a WILD.
Hi,
I happen to have narcolepsy and thus can fall straight into REM sleep at any time, when going to sleep at bedtime the notable onset is sleep paralysis followed by hynagogic hallucinations. This usually results in waking back up, but if it isnt to terryifying I can go through into a lucid dream.
I can also fall straight into a lucid dream whilst sitting down, usually in boring lectures!
how bittersweet.
4/5 times that i've WILD'ed were me having a FA then starting to WILD again, once i WILD'ed within my false awakening i thought i was just having a lucid dream! (I realized all times after i'd woken up just how wrong i was though).
And to anwser your question about WILD'ing within another WILD withing another WILD... it doesnt matter because you still wake up the same way. If i did 50 WILD's all within each other and I woke up, i wouldnt have to wake up say '50 times' until i regained conciousness, i would just wake up like normal and realize "holy shit, i had 50 FA's last night!"
:D
Hahaha, that'd be trippy. Imagine if you actually did enter another lucid dream, change the setting, etc., and when you wake up, you wake up in the other lucid dream, and you can have a whole other one! That'd be sweet.
