Basically, yesterday I wrote out my intent to remember my dreams, created a sigil with the letters that I used to write that intent, drew the sigil on a piece of paper and tore it in half. (the entire process took about 40 minutes)

I don't usually remember many dreams, and if I do, I remember fragments. After doing this, I remembered two incredibly vivid mundane dreams about me walking a long distance(just walking and doing various things while walking for about 20 minutes each). a ridiculous improvement in recall.

As for the entity (I want to say demon, but I don't know for sure, it creeps me out slightly when I think about it.), I went to the kitchen to get something, and there's this particular window that when I walk by at night I get a creepy vibe from. Last night in particular I felt like something was getting in through it after the spell. This has happened before with the same entity I believe, I went back to my room, feeling followed the entire time, and did a quick and dirty banishment... invocation? spell? (what would be the correct terminology?) the feeling of being followed stopped right outside the door to my room and it seemed to just stand there, and it started clapping like it thought something was funny. after a minute or two it left the way it came.

Insights? recommendations? comments? I'm a bit confused as to what might have happened.
