Anybody have a breakthrough recently?

I found that keeping a dream journal on this forum is much more convenient, and therefore, motivating than in a paper journal at home. Since I’ve started on that, I’ve had drastic increase in recall and vividness. Why, just last night I remembered 4 dreams in the morning. I haven’t been able to do that in ages!

Who else has had a good bout of recent success?

Just yesterday I tried chaining the first time and almost had success. I was very close, I tried to read an imaginary book (awake, in my head) and the text was something I didn’t make up consciously so I was nearly in a dream. I also saw some other dream scenes. I would call it a successful attempt because it was my first time to try chaining.

Half an hour ago I had a dream about spaceships. As you can see, they are my LD goal, so I’m happy that they’ve decided to come into my dream at last.

Had a dream a fortnight ago, wherein i was in my hall and suddenly realized that i am dreaming. (I do not know what triggered this). I called my aunt who was nearby and told her that we are dreaming. She didn’t believe first but later convinced. Then i tried summoning my cellphone and succeeded. Then i tried calling my spirit guide, but the dream ended.

Nice work, guys! Remember, everything that happens is a milestone. Every “almost” is a success. If you have a really cool or even just interesting ND, that’s an awsome thing too! Keep it up friends! :smile:

Agree. I was always saying that it’s not good when you lost interest in NLD. They are awesome and important too. Even one of my best dreams were NLD…

Once when we lose interest in NLD we lose interest in dreaming, our DR is fading and then having LD’s becomes even harder…

Keep up with good work and enjoy those NLD’s…

I had LDs before, during the past 10 years maybe, but I have never been interested in LDreaming seriously. I was just intrigued that sometimes I became lucid in my dreams. Most of the time it was as a result of FAs, sometime 4-5-6 in a row. Some other times, I just did become lucid and never knew what to do with it.

Just recently (2 months ago) I came across books about LDs, got familiar with techniques and started a DJ. During this period, I had one LD, semi-aware, one month and a half ago. It just gave me the strength to continue, but it also frustrated me even more.

Last night it happened. I became incredibly aware in my dream, at the end of the first dream cycle. I was a bit scared, and overwhelmed, but it was an incredible sensation. I awoke and wrote the experience in my DJ, and then got back to sleep. At the end of the second dream cycle I had a second LD. No fear this time, just an incredible feeling of joy. Both dreams lasted about 1 minute each, but now I feel that this is only the beginning and I am very excited about what I can do in my dreams from now on.

And yes, I felt like I really needed to tell somebody. :tongue: So I did. Here. :smile:
