Thread: I cant recall my dreams.

Before attempting lucid dreaming, I used to remember at least a dream every other night. I ended up remembering most of my dreams. I never wrote them down. Now I have a dream journal, and since starting it most of my entries have been blank, because I haven't been able to remember any. That, and I wake up with my cat meowing at me incessantly, so whatever I'm thinking about is washed away from the habit to feed my cat...

If you haven't, try making a dream journal. When you wake up, stay still and close your eyes and think about anything you can remember about the dream-- a picture, a word, a character, object, scene.. and write that down.
I had an instant when I couldn't remember anything, then I went online and saw a certain word and it triggered the rest of my dream to come back. xD

That happens very frequently to me.
Some people also say that it works to cycle through people and places that you are familiar with, and that might trigger your dream recall because that certain person or place occurs in your dream.

actualy i that happened to me last night i could only remember a flash of one of my dreams where i was in my back yard but then i just started thinking and something that i was thinking about triggered me to remember my entire dream.after remembering that dream i remembered my another dream and and so on until remembered four of my dreams from last night so im recording all of them in my dream journal.
it was awsome i cant wait till my dream recall gets to where it needs to be for me to start atempting to lucid dream

I've no better recall than you although I've had 2 lucid dreams.
I've never recalled 4 dreams in one night
Either my dream call is not good enough to LD, or you have set your target too high

oh im sorry i thought you had to be able to constistantly remember all of your dreams to to start attempting LDs... Mabye i am setting my goals too high sry but i've only been training my recall for about a week. so im trying to see if i have consistancy. should i already be attempting LDs?

Definitely, yes Al though once I've had a LD which I didn't recall (only one single thing by which I knew I had a LD) but that's not really a big issue right?
