G'day. Hello fellow Members/Admins.

I Have been very interested into forums/websites like this, as such I find myself registering to this forum, Seems like the best one!

You couldn't have a better community yet to speak, As in. Helping others in doing there goals etc.

I hope to develope my skills on this forum. I've been reading alot about lucid dreams, My mistake is that I wanted to do that before I even tried to really focus on dream recal. Which is a stupid mistake, So there for I make my point clear (do not try and lucid dream, get to at least 2 dream recalls a week.)

See, Ive studied so much, I think I did have a lucid but I don't think I can remember it.

Ive read so much on this forum its not funny.
Yet I decide to register.

At first I started off not even getting 1 dream in 2 month period. I didn't even know you could develop skills for dream recall. (until I went on this forum/website) then after that day, I firstly read alot and alot, seeing is believing. So. I decided to do constant reality checks etc. I did around 50 of them in a day period. But yeah, You can never be over the top.

So then after thinking about it and such, I decided to do the "wake up" technique. Set my alarm clock to 4am, Which I userly ever never do. All of a sudden, I go to sleep thinking about it alot. Wake up at 4 am, I relied I had a dream, But unfortunately I couldn't remember it go good, All i know is that I was talking to somebody. Then I was like, eh at least it worked, then i went to sleep. Woke up next morning, Asked my self "Did I dream" from that minute, Bang, Poped up. I could recal a flash back of my dream, Then all of a sudden it came back like I remembered it all. From that day on I was sooo happy.

Then i started to practice. Every night, Unfortunately i didn't recall anything for around 4 days. So i was kind of upset. But !hey! i still kept it up. Im ot going to give up. Then the last day of the week Bang, Which is today. I dreamt of another thing, But this dream lasted i reckon 2 hours. Well of course not real time, could possibly be but yeah. It was pretty realistic, I think it could of been lucid, I had full control of what my actions was doing... But i couldn't feel or anything which is a shame. It was kind of like, spectating in POV position. I woke up so happy its not funny

well yeah, Now im posting on this website /forum, Thanks.

Well, I did RC before I even join and started a DJ. I had two lucid dreams so far. I think getting a early start on RC is not a bad idea but you NEED a DJ to recall or it pretty pointless.

So trying to get a lucid dream without a DJ and training recall is like fishing without a hook. You can try but it pretty pointless.

On my first lucid dream I could not feel anything, I guess it really depend on the dreamer at the time. I heard that you are able to feel so doing RC like biting your arm is pointless and may even be harmful to your lucid chance.

If you knew you were dreaming while in the dream then you were lucid. It have nothing to do with flying or feeling.

If you already have not made one, make a DJ on here. Having a backup DJ on the web is not a bad idea and it will even get you thinking about your dreams even more which will improve your recall.

Yeah I have a DJ, been writing it down, as mentioned, I havn't had much dreams lately, Ive had 2 dreams in 6 days, Which i userly never have dreams i can remember. Like i have posted above.

Thanks anyways

Kinda upsets me when i wake up, think as hard in bed, then write in my DJ no recal this morning,

bad smiley face. lol!! but oh well, like i mentioned above, I will keep trying!

As long your mind is thinking about dreaming, you should get a few. Never quit as many people have times when they can't recall anything then like a month later there recall became godly and let them remember 2-3 dreams a night. Seem like that happen often based on the things I heard.

Writing in your DJ even when you did not dream anything is a great habit. I often write more then "I have no dream", I often write stuff like goals or what I did that night, ect.

**redback122** · 04-18-2009 02:15 AM

I had this dream last night, I think it was lucid, is the defination of lucid is that you know your dreaming, even thus you can't control it, because then if it was that case, every dream i know that im dreaming clearly or i wouldn't remember it??, I don't really understand that concept of that. I havn't been in a dream how its realish expeience yet. But yeah\

Weird thing is, I could control this dream in a way... without noticing my feelings etc, It could be that i have extream recall but i dunno.

Like this terrorist guy tried to shoot at me, so i was scared (in the dream) and i ran away from him, got cover and camped there waiting for him to enter the room. all of a sudden i see him crouching down trying to sneak up on me, so i shot him. so i wasn't really a spectator, I was more of a player.?

lucid is kinda hard as it not something you can record and judge later. You have to judge it at the spot but sadly when you wake up, of course you know that you was dreaming.

Knowing if you were lucid or not really depends on your recalling ability to see if you knew if you were dreaming before you woke up. Even if for some odd reason you can't control your body during the dream (like you dream you was frozen or something) if you was thinking in your mind that "this is a dream but I am unable to move" then that means you was lucid, you just had poor control over that dream.

Well the weird thing is... I recalled that i was dreaming in my dream... then i woke up, and I said to myself, Hey i remember dreaming and thinking about it whilst i was asleep. If that makes any kind of sense, lol.

Then you was not lucid unless you done a RC (which you should do ever morning for that reason) and notice you was dreaming in that dream.

Simply knowing that you are dreaming while asleep is enough to be called lucid but if you remember a dream but don't know that you are still alseep, then that simply remembering a dream while you are dreaming. lol
