Thread: Off To A Good Start

Well first of all I am 18 years old and have had a few Lucid dreams before and never realized there was anything to it. I can recall ussually 2-3 dreams per night if I put any effort into it and so can my mother. I figured because of this inducing Lucid Dreaming would be fairly easy.

The full day I was aware of lucid dreaming I periodically performed reality checks looking at a digital clock. That night when I went to sleep I made sure I was very relaxed and cleared my head of anything that was a pressing issue in my life.

I dreamed that I was in a big city and to the left of my was a digital clock. I looked down at it to perform a reality check and it said 12:11, I looked again and the clock read "7". I was pretty excited that I then realized I was dreaming. I decided that I did not being in the polution filled city and I would rather be in a field of grass with a few trees. I imagined where it was I wanted to be and spun around. Nothing changed after I spun around except a thin blue ladder descended from the sky. I spun around again and when I stopped the ladder spun around too, but not the whole thing at once, just a section of it. When that section would spin it would disappear and it did this until the entire ladder was gone. When it was gone I was looking at the field I had been imagining but it felt more like I was looking at an image of it rather than acctually being in the feild.

My lucidity must of been very low with this dream because I remember thinking that the field isn't really where I wanted to go, it was like it was the only option. Also I couldn't leave the city under my own will and when I got to the field it seemed far away. Also there were no details that I can remember from the dream except the ladder.

So thats it in a nutshell.

You are off to a good start. I hope you keep this up. Welcome to Dream Views, by the way. If you need anything, just pm me. I'm always happy to help.

Good job and welcome to Dream Views!
Hope you continue to have good luck with the LDs.
(I'm so jealous! )

Welcome to Dreamviews.

So cool that you didn't have to try hard, that's already a good sign! Don't expect full lucidity right away, in fact, most people don't even control their dreams for the first few times. You seem to actually be in a rather high state of lucidity for a 'newbie'. Keep going!

I just wanted to say hi since you have "cats" in your username.
