Glad you found us! Welcome!!!


Can i have some help on dream recall though because I tend to black out and seem to wake up seconds later to my alarm and it sucks because i like dreams. Last year I've had a long stream of remembering dreams almost every night but this year I've had none.
Sure you can get better at Dream Recall! Make sure you keep a Dream Journal because that is the best thing for remembering dreams. Recall also is the best thing for getting lucid. Click here for Dream Recall Tutorial. You can click here to see a forum that will help with Dream Recall.


I have one last question but it is kind of weird do you think that dreams can sometimes predict the future? I do because i have had a lot of dream deja vu from last year.

I believe they can but some do not. Actually, a lot of people have reported having dreams that predict the future. This is technically called Precognitive Dreams


Edit: I forgot that i can change my dreams from a nightmare to something interesting whenever i have a nightmare but i don't think this is actually lucid. Like if i was about to be hit by something i would make my dream self concentrate time slows down and i can edit my dream but that's it.

Bye for now and sweet dreams

Anyway good luck and keep dreaming!

Gah My WILD attempts are failing horribly. I think I'm concentrating on staying still so hard that I'm waking up stiff in the morning

HURRA


I have gotten a DILD and it lasted about 0 seconds!

First lucid (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I started a WILD for about 40 min but my eye got extremely itchy and would not go away for about 10 min so i moved. I went to sleep and woke up around 6:00 AM. My arms were totaly asleep and i layed in bed for awhile. I started thinking about WBTB method so i tried a wild again but could not concentrate. I went back to sleep again.

Last part was really weird

First I was near a tree watching a student who was turned into a squriel. He jumped onto a branch and ran on it. He started laughing about how easy it was. Then he asked where he should go next. A female witch said he should get up to the higher branch in front of him but he could not reach the branch. He jumped at the branch before the witch told him to climb the branch near him. He missed by about half the length and did a belly flop on the ground. We all started laughing and i said "Maby he should be a flying squirel so he doesnt get hurt more". The student ran around somewhere out of my vision. and i started laughing alot and floating. I shoulda noticed that was weird. The dream kinda jumps to a magic classroom. The people who were behind me were some of my friends who were around the tree before. I turned around and some of them were kind of holographic. I started wondering about it and turned to alex and asked him who was sitting next to one of the holo students but i didn't hear his answer because i heard the teacher come in. I turned around to see him i saw a weird pice of paper sitting somewhere. It was a script for yesterday and the parts with my friends weren't fully loaded yet. So i started thinking that i was dreaming. Wait I am dreaming!

I stand up but i start getting way too excited. The dream faded extremely quickly i tried to calm down but i woke up.

Nope the dream just switched to a cliff face with 3 animals next to the cliff. I cast a unforgivable curse and kill the closest animal all three tumble off the cliff and suddenly i am in a room. Again i say to myself that i must be dreaming because i just cast a killing curse and that's not possible. I became partly lucid here but i did not believe it much. I walked forward and was happy that the dream wasn't fading as fast as though it would. The dream started getting very foggy and i started thinking crap! I managed to hold the dream for a few seconds and then something weird happened one of my eyes got stuck closed. When i opened it somehow i opened one eye in the real world too what the heck? I'm half dreaming half awake because i can see out of one eye in the dreamworld and one in the real world so i woke myself up.

The weird part of the dream was that i just said to myself i was dreaming without getting any kind of sign.
