Thread: What is Time like while in a lucid dream?

How fast or slow does time go in a lucid dream? Does it go really fast like a normal dream or does it go slow??? or do you feel like the time feels the same when your awake?

For me.. time normally feels the same way in my luicd and non-lucid dreams as it does when I'm awake.

I'd say on average it's similar to being awake. In many nonlucid dreams, some saga will persist over several dream days, but I can't remember any such thing happening while I've been lucid.

It probably depends on the dreamer, though. Some with good dream control might be able to control the passing of time effectively and make it seem longer or shorter. My dream control is not that good. (Yet. I'm thinking of studying dream control more while I'm here.)

It's pretty much normal for me. Some people claim to be able to dilate time (make a 5-10 minute dream last for hours) but I've never been able to do that.
