I was having a dream and it became so bizarre and wacky that I finally realized that I was dreaming. I immediately woke up in my bed but I knew I was still dreaming. I have lucid dreams maybe once or twice a year, not often. I have made it my goal to use lucid dreaming as an attempt to communicate with my subconscious. I know that sounds kookie, but dreams are the domain of the subconscious, so the LD is the rare world where both your waking self and your subconscious are kind of active on the same wavelengths.

Anyway, I asked to be taken to my subconscious, or something along those lines. What happened next was an extremely terrifying, painful sound. It was as if my body was being shaken apart by noise. That sound happened twice, and I then realized that I wasn't going to be able to communicate this way. I then had another five minutes or so of a typical LD that you read about all the time around here, I walked around my house and then started flying, which would have been cooler had I not just had a run in with the terrifying, yet extremely hard to describe sound.

I've come to the conclusion that one of the following must have occurred:

a) My subconscious was saying no in a way that I could not argue.

b) My subconscious was trying to communicate with me, but it speaks in a language that is terrifying and painful to hear, let alone understand. The sound did not sound like anything I have ever heard before.

c) Something else I haven't thought of yet.

How about you guys? Have you ever asked this question (I want to talk to my subconscious)? What has happened? Most people LD for entertainment, as do I as well. But I've been also trying to find out more, as the subconscious picks up data at such a higher rate than does our conscious.
