I was lucky enough to experiance a Lucid dream last night.
Anyone else have one of these?

If you don't know what it is.
A lucid dream is a dream in which the person is aware that he or she is dreaming while the dream is in progress. During lucid dreams, it is often possible to exert conscious control over the dream characters and environment, as well as to perform otherwise physically impossible feats.

A lucid dream can begin in one of two ways. A dream-initiated lucid dream (DILD) starts as a normal dream, and the dreamer eventually logically concludes that he or she is dreaming, or a wake-initiated lucid dream (WILD) occurs when the dreamer goes from a normal waking state directly into a dream state with no lapse in consciousness.

Or just go to wikipedia and look it up.


It was pretty cool; But didn't last very long.
I'm hoping with this first one they will come more often.

Never happens to me. What was your dream about?

Re: Lucidity >.>

It started out like one of the recurring dreams/nightmares. Where you think you woke up, but your just still in another dream.

But I woke up(In a dream) and went to the bathroom, and walked back into my room; I didn't feel tired at all, so I went to go turn my closet light on (Which I never do because its been dead for about a year now), and when it turned on I felt kinda weird...Like...Somethings not right.

And it just kinda clicked; I've been studying Lucid dreams for a while, so I know a few things to check and see if your in a dream. So I tried putting my hand through a wall and it worked.
Then I kinda just screwed around inside my house.
I feel really stupid for not doing the things I've wanted to do.

Like talking to people in my Lucid Dream, Walking through a mirror, Fly, Killing Spree....>.>

EDIT: I also have these weird dreams where I'll see something thats not scary or frightening at all, and it'll scare the crap out of me and i'll wake up.
Like one time I walked downstairs and saw my sister cooking bacon, and for some reason it scared me to waking.

I also went to the movies once and saw Tass manning the popcorn maker. I think the only reason behind that was because it was the night after the convention's live broadcast.

Fixed.

Seriously though, it sounds really cool. Too bad I don't even have regular dreams most of the time. =/

Wow, now that seems really cool and interesting. I think I've had one of those kind of dreams before, but never quite understood it exactly.

I have lucid dreams allllll the time. It's weird... they sometimes start out being normal ones, and I eventually start taking control of the dream, or I have control at the start.

I had one last night.. I went to bed at 5PM! (I felt really ill, and still do) then I woke up at 11PM for an hour or so then fell back asleep.. I was in a world that was completely dark.. the sun gave out I guess. XD I was in my town, and there was an invasion.... of ZOMBIES. I quickly started to think;.. where would be safe? Everyone from Portland, Salem, the coast... everywhere started coming to my small (under 3k populated town) and trying to hide. I had a team of people who where my friends in the dream, a couple guys with blonde dreadlocks.. they started to scatter to aid people. They learned quickly that the Zombies did not like Fire.. I guess Zombies are flammable? Anyway, TONS of Zombies showed up... I quickly grabbed whatever was around me and attack the dead peoples.. I just ran right in to the group, slaughtering the un-dead... which sounds odd, how can you kill the already deceased... hmm.. I beat them to a pulp until they gave out. xDDD I could jump REALLY high, and hover in the air quite some time to plan my next blow to the Zombieness... I found an electric saw.... lets just say I made my way to Portland easily. =D

Err, sorry.. o.o;; typed a lot haha.

Re: Lucidity >.>

I've been having a Lucid dream almost every night for the past month. I don't why I'm having them more often than usual but its cool.

Re: Lucidity >.>

Never had one...or maybe I have..I don't know, but I would like to experience one.

Re: Lucidity >.>

I have never had a lucid dream yet. ;_;

Re: Lucidity >.>

I might've had a lucid dream a few times, but if so I can't remember. Sounds awesome, and since it's your own head, if you can be conscious of your dream state while still maintaining the dream state...you really could do anything.

Re: Lucidity >.>

i don't know if i've had one of these, but... sometimes when i'm sleeping and dreaming, i'll wake up. but as long as i don't open my eyes, my dreams continue. but i'm awake. it only lasts for a little bit because i always have to open my eyes for no reason. it makes me mad sometimes.

Re: Lucidity >.>

Ive made sooo many posts on other forums about lucid dreams because I experienced a few. The latest one I went on a flying killing spree cus thats exactly what I thought years ago when I had one. "Why didnt I go on a flying killing spree?"

I threw someone into the wall with my mind BTW.

The first time I had one, I "woke up" because there was a singing fking dragon... singing about how he was gonna kill me. The disneyesque of the whole thing made me realise it was a dream. Then I figured "Uhm yeah I would rather not stick around for the dragon pwning me. I usually wake up when I fall in a dream so ill just jump off this cliff to wake up."

I didnt wake up... Turns out you wake up from a dream due to the shock of falling.. There was no shock seeing I knew exactly what I was doing, and I knew it was a dream. I landed in another dream (Where I did NOT have consciousness in.).


Method A.)
1.)Throughout the day, every hour or half hour or so; pinch yourself.
2.) After a week or two... once you formed a habit out of it, try to dream.
Tell yourself before sleeping to dream over and over. It usually works. After a few days your dreams should be more clear.
3.) While dreaming, seeing you formed a habit of pinching yourself in real life, you should do it in your dream. When you pinch yourself, you'll realise you felt no pain and you should realise you are dreaming.

Method B.)
1.) Before sleeping tell yourself to dream.
2.) While you are really tired, think of something odd to dream about.
When you focus on this, it gets really hard to concentrate on this when you fall asleep. When you start falling to sleep, your mind will wander off. Try to keep focusing on this. It will take longer to sleep if you have a problem concentrating while dozing off.
3.) If you dreamed of something really screwed up; you should easily know its a dream.
4.) Fly around and fk **** up. Go balls out.

Re: Lucidity >.>

I never dream anymore since like 2-3 years.
But thanks for those cool tipps Sir_Thomas.
Gonna try that out. And then get control over my dreams and let my fantasies go crazy.
