Thread: Flying While Lucid

I often get power lines in my dreams as well! They have never stopped me, but they have given it their best try.

What happens with me, is I fly through one layer of power lines then find another just beyond that. And then another and another. One trick I learned is to just stop and play on them. Grab on and swing around on them. or climb up and walk across them. As soon as I stop thinking of them as an obstacle, and more of a play thing, they stop being an obstacle. I've never been shocked by them. I guess I trust that I'm in a dream and don't really care about that so it doesn't happen.

I also have a bad fear of heights in real life. But I don't have it in dreams. I can't get enough of heights in Lucid Dreams. I hope you can get over your fear. because I have found nothing to be more enjoyable in a Lucid than free falling is.

The best thing I could suggest, is probably just getting over it and jumping off something. then letting yourself hit the ground. and you will see that it's no big deal. you can even land on your feet and walk away. Maybe start with something small and work your way up. Once you know for a fact you won't be hurt. I'm sure your fear will be gone. At least in Lucid Dreams anyway.

Thanks Caradon, but my fear isn't falling down, it is being sucked up. Lol. I don't have any problems with free falling from a building (although I've never done it to my recollection). My fear is if I fly higher than a telephone wire, than I'm going to lose control and just keep flying up until I get sucked into space. I just have to teach myself in LDs that it is not possible.

Sky-- how was exploding fantastic? I would think it would hurt. Immensely. Lol.

OH LOL! In that situation I'd say just go with it and see what happens.
There is nothing to fear either way. I wish I would get sucked into outer space. I've tried to fly there but never could make it.

What goes wrong in your dreams that doesn't allow you to make it? Lol is the flight too long and you end up waking up before you get there?

Actually once I get to a certain point, I just keep flying and flying and the earth does not get any farther away. It will seem like I'm getting farther for a moment. Then the earth catches right up again. I do get very high, but just not quite high enough to see the earth as a round ball.

But, I have not tried it since re learning Lucid Dreaming. I went a few years without doing it. It's possible I could get different results if I try it now.

Well you better let me know if you succeed! I'd really like to hear about your attempts now that you're back LDing! Keep me posted will ya!

Sure, I'll let you know how it goes. Plus, it will be posted in my journal as well.
