Thread: Asked for my dream guide and got some weird answers...?

It's pretty much placebo, do accept information on how to control your dreams because it will work. It works for me. If you put enough attention on something it gets more vivid. Don't ask 'it' on what to do with your life, that's just silly.

I explained this to him, and he understood. He seemed to me like a more intelligent DC because he "understood" in the sense that he new it was my dream and exactly why I was rubbing my hands together. My dream characters either don't know what I'm talking about or don't believe me when I mention it's a dream.

The only reason your DC's usually do that is because YOU don't completely believe you are dreaming. They are a part of your brain remember.
This manifestation obviously just was a part of you that knew you were dreaming.
I hear a lot of people say the same thing, my DC's just don't question it at all (only a few occasions I think).

The beagle and lion thing you mentioned reminds me of my DG lol
Even though it ended up being a later dream, not a description of your DG but it just reminded me lol
And you could have just dreamed that because you were thinking about what the DC meant.

There might not be any use in asking DC's for a name or anything, I dunno.
If you had found your DG you would just know it, you don't need input from other people, you just KNOW it is your Dream Guide, you feel it.

EDIT: Also, not helping you out in a fight doesn't automatically mean it's not your DG, they aren't there to protect you and tell you you're dreaming every time you sleep.

Thanks for the feedback :]

So knowing that, I would say... I don't think your dream guide should want to hide from you, or to keep his identity a secret.

Yeah, that makes sense... it was obviously my own mind trolling me or something XD

Will do..

Now that you mention that, I remember dreams where I've talked to denying DCs and it seems like one of those frequent dreams I have where I fully realize I'm dreaming, only to be distracted minutes later. Maybe I was just "dreaming of being lucid" when I finally asked them?

There might not be any use in asking DC's for a name or anything, I dunno.

Yeah, I tried the same thing in a dream this morning and it clearly doesn't work for me, even though everyone knew I was dreaming too -.-

From now on I'll just walk around lucid, keep it in my head and hope for the best XD unless I want to be amused and ask what weird creature/object a DC could come up with for a DG next..

Couldn't you create or find a Dream Guide store where you could pick one up from? Maybe if you could, then you could sort out which are the best and which are the village idiots
Also, put a disclaimer on your choice by saying to them that the DG of your choice will be with you for life and can be summoned at anytime you wish.

I really hope mine is a Jessica Alba or Vanessa Angel lookalike
