      Greets

      Hi, I'm a newbie dreamer. I learned how to lucid dream on my own (well with the help of a very close friend of mine, who I hope posts on these forums). In any case, I can usually have one LD a night, or every other night at worst. Further I have managed a decent amount of control over them. However, I notice (and have read on this page) that any time you get excited it becomes harder to stay in the dream. If this is so, how can you have too much fun, or get too scared, or feel any emotion greatly at all. I have no problems staying lucid, even if I start to lose it. More importantly though is that I cannot seem to accomplish anything really worth trying for. No sex, no flying, and no heroic feets. And another thing...What about music? Can anyone else turn music on, I've tried and tried. Anyways, sorry to ramble; I just feel like there is so much potential in my dreams. I've been known to be wrong though...rarely.

      Glad to have you on board, WELCOME!!!

      Turn on Music? Do you mean like turning on a stereo? Or having music just happen?

      Oh BTW. you'll get better with staying lucid and be able to do those 'worth while things'
      you must be the change you wish to see in the world...

      Yeah, stereos are a good example but I know that electronics dont work well (at least my clocks and computer never does!! MY COMPUTER!!! And I thought LD was fun =P). But ANY music would be cool...ANYTHING at all.
      Hope is the denial of reality.

      Electrical devices almost always fail in a lucid dream. Here is something to try next time, I did this with a light switch one time.

      I turned on the switch and nothing happened, so I thought, oh well lucid device failure again. So I stretched out my hand toward the lights, focused on them and commanded them to light. And they did!

      Give that a try with your stereo. What would be really cool would be if you hear a brand new song, brought it back with you, recorded it, and made lots of money with it!

      Ahh yes, one thing I thought I should add is that I regularly experience sleep paralysis. And that in about 75% of my non-lucid dreams, a woman is trying to kill me (be it forcefully or politically). Could this mean that I hate my mother? The answer is yes.

      Howdy howdy howdy

      Forget the stero =) Just kick up some theme music to suit your mood =)
      It will take some time but your control will increase!
      "A knight is sworn to valor.
      His heart knows only virtue.
      His blade defends the helpless.
      His might upholds the weak.
      His word speaks only truth.
      His wrath undoes the wicked."

      Impossible is only that which has yet to be imagined

      I remember one time while I was under Nitrous. The room was slowly spinning and there was music everywhere.
      Then they turned the nitrous off and the music abruptly stopped.

      Yeah forget the stereo, unless you need it as a prop to get started.
