Thread: Lucid sensations

Oh yeah, I also read the site last night and tried out as many of the techniques I could. I had quite a few dreams last night, which I mostly recorded after waking from them, but I didn't dream lucidly. The first one actually, I was scared about lucid dreaming because there was a boy shooting a gun at me and he shot my horse in the ass and blew its tail off. I thought why the devil would I want to lucid dream in such a scary place. Of course though I could just spin myself out of that situation.

But I dreampt again in the morning, and I was a little more rational in it, but I'm not sure how much control or awareness I had. I was playing in a soccer game, so it wasn't completely abnormal (although it was on an island golf course, and I got there by riding a cruise ship passenger ferry that used traintracks- but once I started playing soccer that was all in the background!). I felt myself in control of my body, but I was completely preoccupied by the game, and didn't realy stop to think that I was dreaming. Whether this is an improvement or not, I'm not sure. I noticed that our soccer ball occasionally turned into my cat, and I thought, wait a second, that may look like my cat, but it's really a visual trick, and just a soccer ball. However, I didn't realize from this that it was only a dream. I also thought it weird that no one congratulated my teammate (including me) when he scored a goal. I'm not sure if this was my conscious mind interfering, or dream reasoning. Anyways, I'll see what happens in my dreams tonight.

Lucid sensations feel completely real when I'm focusing on them. I summoned and ate a meat pie recently and it tasted completely real (I was lucid, but not thinking all that clearly. WTH did I summon a pie? I don't know...)

You can certainly feel things you haven't experienced in real life. Your mind creates sensations it expects to feel. So when flying you can feel the wind rushing past and such, I also feel support around my waist and legs and this is how I move myself, by moving these supports.

When riding a Rhino you will feel what your mind expects to feel. If you've ridden a horse IRL, then it'll probably feel like that but harder and rougher.

You can even have sensations that are impossible in real life. Like moving objects mentally, I can actually feel a pulling and pushing sensation in my mind as I move an object. Or moving through solid objects. I feel a strange new feeling in the part of my body that is passing through another object. Its a feeling that I haven't felt in real life and so its almost impossible to explain.

really? i felt a gravel road on the ground and then to see if i could feel pain i hit my fist down on it a few times and it didnt hurt XD, i know that sounds stupid but i was experimenting

ride a rhino? i dont think it would be that great >_>

Yeah I get that too no pain. Comes in handy for the times I get thrown through a wall... or try to fly and fail, landing face down in the bitumen.

I guess you don't want to feel any pain, so you don't. It's built right into our instincts. I think you can feel pain though if you try.
