This Topic is about Dream Incubation. NOT about deliberate, conscious DreamIncubation, but about Incidental, subconscious DreamIncubation:
The way we subconsciously incubate objects, scenes, themes, people, situations from waking life into our Dreams.
Here's a list of such specific Objects, Scenes, themes, situations and people from my waking Life that are often recreated and experienced in my Dreams:

- School [scene] (Dreamt alot about my elementairy school)
- School [theme] (I Dream alot about being at some random school and trying to be successfull there; an Issue that, in waking life, occupies my Mind alot lately)
- Esther [people] (A female friend of mine from waking life who, somehow, returns often in many of my dreams)
- Hair [object] (I dream quite alot about my waking life hair since I have Dreadlocks. In dreams they're either very noticably present on my head or I pull large pieces of dreads out of my head. Horrible!)
- Neighborhood [scene] (I quite occasionally dream about my own waking life neighborhood, neighborhoods nearby that I know or random neighborhoods that are a creative, random mixture of the 2 afore mentioned neighborhoods)
- Public swimmingpools [scene] (I dream alot about huge pools, usually indoors sometimes outdoors, that have alot of crazy slides and lots of people there. The pools of my dreams look like a creative mix of 2 public pools I know in waking life)
- Great Parties [situation] (I often dream about being at great parties: in Dancehalls, in people's house, on some sort of festival camp. I am quite a party animal in waking life. I can often be found at Home parties, Dancehalls, Festivals and such)
- Metro [scene] (I dream about the Metro for years and still dream about the metro quite occasionally.Travelling the metro into strange dreamscenes of some downtown area. Usually I dream about the Metro near a Metro station close to my house in waking life)
There are probably more, but these Dreamscenes/themes/Characters/Scenes/Objects are most likely to return to me frequently in my Dreams.


Now I have never managed to CONSCIOUSLY incubate things into my dream and in my quest to find out HOW exactly to do this I took a look at the things from Waking Life that I subconsciously incubate into my Dreams and now I'm trying to figure out WHY I incubated exactly THESE things from Waking Life instead of other things from waking life and is there some connection between these things that they made it into my Dream?

Basically what I'm trying to find out is: What are the "criteria" that waking life situations/scenes/themes/people/objects have to meet in order for them to make it into your Dreams?

Any answers or ideas on this last Question would be very helpfull. Also it would be interresting for those interrested in this Topic to compile a list, like the one I made, for themselves and post it here too. Maybe we can find a similairity or connection between these subconsciously incubated things from Waking life which may help indicate what the "Dream-Incubation criteria" might be.

Anyone?
