I've been practising remembering my dreams by keeping a dream journal; this is working well and I've recorded a lot of non-lucid dreams, all with pretty obvious wish-fulfilment type symbolism. I was trying to perfect my dream recall before attempting lucidity.
Then this morning I had a horrible dream: we were searching the house for a snake, and we all distrusted each other because any one of us might have been the snake (like the plot of the movie "The Thing"). I suddenly realized that I was the snake, and I also realized that I was dreaming this. As I was the snake, I then went on to kill everyone else.
That wasn't what I wanted at all! Can I have a nice dream next time, please? If I carry on practising, will I be able to control things so that I don't get dreams like this?
