Thread: My lucid dream!!!

Also, some kid in my class knows he is dreaming almost every dream and thought everybody dreamed that way. He can't really control it though, he just goes with the flow.

I think people who get lucid easily never really take advantage of their dreams and tend to not see what the big deal is.

I used to have really lame lucid dreams all the time when I slept during class, and I never really thought anything of them. Dream control never occured to me, so I never did much of anything that I wouldn't do in real life.

My one really great lucid dream that I've had was one hell of an experience, though. It's interesting to read how you interacted with your dream characters and comparing it to what I did. The first thing I did was pull out a gun and kill the guy I was standing next to, just to completely come to terms with the fact that none of what was happening was real.

I did have a dream once where I told my mother about the dream I'd just had earlier that night. It wasn't a lucid one, but still... I've been there... and when I woke up I felt pretty stupid for not becoming lucid in the second dream.

Also: I've heard that when trying to fly, it's easier to think of trying to move the world underneath you than to try to move yourself through the air. Never tried it though. I haven't had too much trouble with getting off the ground, but my speed and altitude could use a little help, so maybe next time I'll give it a shot.

You might also try climbing something like a tower or cliff or imaginig yourself at the top of a building or something, then jumping off... gliding is sometimes a good way to practice flying... or you can also imagine hovering a few feet above ground, then moving towards an object or point on the horizon...

You can also try flying not like superman style but standing up, or siting as if in a meditative position. Agree with Silver Sphere that jumping from a height helps too. One of my favorite superpowers is going through wall, because you can imagine things on the other side and help make them appears. It is also a weird sensation going through matter.

As for looking at the clock and seeing it change, that's a great technique. If you ever find yourself withotu a clock or books, you can close your eyes for a couple of seconds and then open them again and see if the scenary changes to tip you off that you are dreaming

Actually Silver Sphere didn't say that...


...just kidding.

Actually, NOT flying superman style is what I was alluding to. I usually fly in a standing position unless I'm very high above the ground. It feels more natural that way- like standing on a magic carpet or surfboard (silver-surfer style only without the cosmic surfboard, dude! ).
As for going through matter I usually hate it and only do it when I "have to because it feels so strange -like you're becoming part of the matter as you move through it...

Aw, I like taking credit for things I didn't do! As long as they're good...

I enjoy going through solid objects, and compared to some things other people have said I have a pretty easy time with it. I always think of the Martian dude from Justice League when I do it. Superheroes and Jedi have probably come a long way when helping me with dream control.

Ok, Evangel said it...Silver Sphere, you too have good points...
