lol....Ive got no clue what my dream recall is at right now
The reason this interested me is because Ive always wanted to relive my past.....and since time travel is impossible at this moment this could be my only shot. Ive had a LD before but it was very very short....and odd.....but it made sense lol.....can hardly remember it now!
Anyways whats the normal amount of dreams a person usually has....how much do you have???

It sounds like you may have misunderstood the question. Elwood's question - if I may speak for him - is "How many dreams do you recall on a typical night? How well do you recall your dreams?"

People typically have 3-7 dreams a night, though it varies, depending on things such as length of sleep and length of individual dreams (as you can have more than one dream in a single REM period).

There's a philosophical description I've come up with that I've been dying to use somewhere. Now's my chance. Like all good philosophical statements, it raises more questions than it answers. Think of it this way: Dreams are something that happen to the dreamer - Lucid dreaming is something the dreamer does. The difference is the focus of attention (consciousness). One is a relatively passive process; the other is a relatively active process.

Hey, welcome, etc. etc. I think about three to four per night is good for a beginning lucid dreamer, though it varies. I suggest you keep a dream journal; it's really helped me.
