I just thought I should introduce myself, seeing as I am new. I have been very interested in Lucid Dreaming, and have had this site bookmarked for awhile. I have had Lucid dreams before, and when I was young i actually induced dreams all the time, using cartoons as a way to project what I wanted to happen. I would rehearse the way I wanted the scene to go, over and over, and it would happen.
I lost the ability when I was around 10, mostly because I stopped. Then, when I was around 14 I had an awesome Lucid dream. I was a Pharaoh in Egypt, and i was being fed grapes and fanned with palm leaves. i realized I was dreaming and every woman in the room looked at me at the same time. I ordered them to remove their clothes and the love of lucidity began. It only lasted around a minute but it was intense.
Anyway, can't wait to master this ability, it seems so useful!
