Could this work?

[arleitiss]

I got some idea here: Before going sleep if I turn off light in room and take black marker to draw something on my hand, but without seeing it. Just knowing it;'s there but having no idea what it looks like. And going sleep then. So if in dream I look at my hand I basically shouldn't see anything on iti which could give me a understandign that it's dream? Could that work?

Hmm, I heard about it but never tried it before so I can't tell you it will work but by my guess it will work. I would think if you looked at your hand in a dream though it would look deformed but maybe not, just try the idea and tell me if it works.

It may work, but then again if you didn't know what you wrote that could backfire. If your subconscious just put something on your hand, because it knew that you had something on your hand, you could actually miss it. Try marking your hand with a big X, then if you see it in your dream, question reality. Do an RC, and use that as a temporary Dream Sign.

It depends... you could look at your hand in the dream, see there's nothing written there, but not remember you had wrote something there. So, you wouldn't realize it anyways. One that I like to do, which plays on your idea is... I sometimes have dreams where I'm out in public, but I'm naked, or I'm wearing my pajamas. I've now trained myself to realize that I never leave the house this way, so if I am currently in this situation, there's a very strong chance its a dream. It's a never-fail dream sign (which is great, but it needs to show up more often!)!

It might or might now work. Looking at your hands in a dream has very high chances to turn you lucid. Usually your hand will be messed up. During waking try to stare at your hand several times a day. That will help you out to remember to do it while dreaming. Welcome to DV arleitiss!!! Feel free to drop me an PM if you need something.

Interesting idea. Try it and let us know what happens.

[Cacophony]

Yeah, this is an interesting idea. I think it definitely has the potential to work for you, and not for others. I think that there's no harm in trying, but don't beat yourself up about it if it doesn't work out. Welcome to DV!

I've got also an idea, but for some kind of RC for smokers (or people who always have a lighter in their pocket): Put on your lighter. In a dream, the lighter won't work or if it works, you won't feel the heat when approaching your other hand near to the flame This needs verification :3

[Cacophony]

I've certainly been able to feel heat in dreams. I haven't tried it with a lighter, but I'd be willing to bet that you wouldn't be able to rely on that.

Dreams do still like to live up to our expectations... I think that even in a dream, if you hold your lighter up to your hand, you'll expect heat and thus, feel it.
