Thread: Yet another new person!

Awesome, thanks.
Another question I have. For the longest time, my dreams were always in third person. Any dream I had, I was watching from the outside (especially scary for my nightmares. Watching my brother stab me in the back was NOT a good experience), but recently they've all been in first person.
Normal? Do dreams often switch like that?

I commonly dream from the first and third person perspectives simultaneously. And now that I think about it, that all dissolves into the first person when I become lucid. There's another thread here on DV that has already gone into this conversation if you'd like to check that one out. I have no real idea what the symbolism of perspective in dreams could be, although I'm glad you've raised the question, I intend to fine out. It may have something to do with your control of the dream: regular dreams may tend to be in the 3rd person while LDs may tend to be more in the 1st.

P.S.
