Ok, the dreams have got wierd now.. Any ideas?

Hi All,

Some of you may know that I'ma natural Lucid Dreamer.

I really do need to train myself in controlling these things. I do not have any control of the scenario i am presented, but i am in full control of what i do in them.

My last two dreams (saturday & sunday night) had some extremely strange events. I'm just wondering if anyone has an idea about it.

Dream 1:
The strange aspect of this one was that there was somekind of little green goblin who was trying to be a hinderance to me in a nasty way, but what ever i tried to do i couldnt get rid of it. For instance I tried to squash it like a bug underfoot and it split into two, but one half was now dead, but the other half was just the same as it was before, and this kep happening until i managed to get the last live half into a glass jar where it was then trapped.

Dream 2:
From advice given by you all on the forum, i think this envolved my first conscious effort of changing the dream scenario. I was out with a group of friends ( i know one really well, but have never met or seen the others before). We were having some kind of a race to get to a place (dont know where). but to get to the destination we had to go through a hedge maze. Myself and my good friend we ahead of the others and when we got to the maze, I was able to create some gaps in the hedges to get ahead. I convinced my friend to follow me and then closed the holes behind us (more of a patch up job than seemless work) and we continued. unfortunately i woke up before this part concluded.

oh well, thought i'd share it with you anyway *)

thanks for listening

How long has this been happening?
If it has only been for a little while, then perhaps you could just wait it out, I go through strange phases in dreaming sometimes, often triggered by outside events in my life (especially work and school).
If it has been for a long time...no clue...sorry
(on a side note, have there been any sort of drastic stresses that have become prevalent in your life as of late? I find that stressful situations or periods of anxiety cause my dreams to be a little wierd too.)
Hope I could help a little :)

Dream control will simply take you a bit of practice. You did get some control in the second dream, which is good. :) You're on the right track.

Frustration and stress kills dream control, it happens to all of us. Relax your mind, and try again. Don't give up. :)
