Thread: Interpreting the Dream WITHIN the Dream

It is cool that you stayed lucid and focused on your task for so long.

Several times while lucid I have wondered what meaning there might be behind the dream I'm having. Usually wondering this causes the dream to stop having a plot from that point forward. However, sometimes I do a decent job of interpreting the dream from inside it. But other times my dream logic is so fuzzy I come to hilarious conclusions.

Your band ditching you could mean a lot of things. Only you can really know what might make sense for your life. Maybe you are having some tension between you and other band members? Or you are afraid of your relationship with the band members going badly? Or you just don't like to get lost?

Being unable to read words and letters in a dream (and them changing while you try to do so) is classic! It can be so frustrating!

It is awesome that you are having such good results with the dream yoga!

it happens to me a lot
in fact i think i made a thread about it
Normally i know why i dream things while I'm dreaming it
its kinda of an insight of my mind
good to know i'm not the only one

Congratulations on your lucid dreams, Jackalhead. The one you described sounded pretty intense. I've never really wondered about dream interpretation, though I'll probably try this the next time I get lucid just for kicks.

Thanks for posting, and may you have more lucids to come!

I'm rarely lucid enough to analyze the dream while it is happening. It is not something I actively try to do, but maybe I should. Normally, I like to get a little caught up in the dream to see what develops.

seeker28- Good interpretations! That does make sense. Yeah, there has been some tension in the band recently, but after the gig last night everything pulled together. Your interpretation was dead on.

Haha and by the way, I've also been doing subliminals while I'm on my computer, additionally to the dream yoga. Works pretty darn good. Had another LD last night.

Daniel Danciu- Thanks, Daniel. :] Yeah I got the idea from a book I am reading. I wouldn't have thought of it otherwise. It's a pretty insightful experience.

Robot Butler- Yeah man. Sometimes I am just lucid enough to have fun. Other times it's like MEGA lucidity. The LD I had last night was like 75% lucid. Didn't remember to interpret it.

Y'all- The LD I had last night I was in my old high school when it just suddenly dawned on me I was dreaming. I was with a lot of old friends, both boys and girls. I told them all it was a dream, even though I knew they were DCs. We were walking through the halls and just messing around everywhere we went. Eventually we came to a place where the Highschool connected to a mall. The girls went in and the guys said they didn't want to go in there. I didn't know why, so I seperated from the guys and went with the girls. When I got in there, it turned out it was Victoria's Secret. I temporarily lost lucidity here, even though I remembered I could fly. Cos I was flying around trying to tell the girls to hurry. Haha I remember feeling really awkward. If I had held more lucidity, this wouldn't have phased me... and the inner devil might have come out.

So I finally just left when I regained lucidity and explored some more. I remember the dream continued on for another half hour or so and I got kinda scared cos I wasn't waking up. I decided I wanted to make sure I wasn't dead, so I tried to wake myself up. At first I thought I did, but it was just a FA. Three FAs later I finally woke up. I seriously thought I had died in my sleep for minute there.
