Thread: LD lingo?

hi everyone i am new to the whole lucid dream experience. i heard about lucid dreaming from a show on the discovery channel about the human body, mind, etc. it got me very excited to try it out so i found this site and read a bunch of stuff and actually had a short lived lucid dream that same night. awesome. anyways my question is i have noticed a lot of "LD's" which i got means lucid dream's. i was just wondering if someone can help me out here because there are a few i do not understand and have looked up like "wild" and "SP" and "RC's" i'm picking up on this but i was just wondering if someone can post up a list of all of them and what they mean, or maybe someone has a link to an older post that has already done this or something? or do i just have to be cool and pick it up as i go along? thanks

Welcome to DV! Congrats on your lucid dream! Some people will have a lucid dream only after hearing about it.

Here is an acronym list: http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...ead.php?t=2954

Feel free to ask any questions you might have!

Hey welcome to the forum! That list should sort you out above, if you have any questions please ask

First of all, Welcome to DV! (Dreamviews, LOL).

RC: Reality Check. (Where you check if you're dreaming or awake).
SP: Sleep Paralysis. (Where you get paralysed during your dreams so you don't act them out).
WILD: Wake Induced Lucid Dream. (There are a bunch of WILD techniques on this site. Head over to the tutorials section).
Basically anything with 'ILD' on the end is a Lucid Dream induction technique.



EDIT: I clicked add reply when nobody had replied and when I post it I get beaten. Twice! :O

hey woa! thanks for all the quick awesome responses. i have been on a few forums before where it would take forever to get a response and people weren't half as nice. i am looking forward to spending many hours on the forums whilst being stuck here at work. thanks!!!

This forum is active pretty much all day, so no worries there!

i will try to have a LD tonight, and in my dream, i will post something on this forum, and when i wake up i'll see if it is posted, and if it is then i will do an RC which will more then likely prove that i am having an FA. haha picking up on it already. sweet!
