Question: When you are a dream do you remember things that happened in past dreams? Almost like your memories of past dreams are stord in your subconscious mind and when you are dreaming you have a direct line to those subconscious memories.
I have experienced this in real dreams and realized it when I woke up. I had one dream where I was in my yard (where I lived when I was 13) and someone had built a fort (There was no fort in RL). In the dream I remembered having seen the fort last time I was there. When I awoke from this dream it triggered a memory of a past dream where I had seen the fort. (I hope this isn’t too confusing )
So my theory is: (1) I drempt about the fort but didn’t remember the dream, (2) I had a second dream about the fort where I remember seeing the fort, & (3) the dream memory triggered my real memory to remember the previous dream about the fort.
I have many dreams in which I dream that I’m telling someone about what was I dreaming. Turns out that the dream I’m telling someone to is actually the dream before it (same night).
I have had similar experiences. In some dreams I come across places that I know only from previous dreams. I know my way round a place that doesn’t exist in real life cause I’ve been there in a previous dream.
Like you said about the fort, when I wake up it triggers a memory of a past dream of the place.
It really depends on the level of awareness. In some dreams I don’t even think, I’m just doing or observing, and others are the opposite. For example, last night I had an ND in which I remembered the LD directly before it. I began to critique my actions just as I do IRL. These dreams were totally separate, but I could clearly remember what had previously happened.
Pay attention on awareness, that’s what I always say.
Awareness Levels are brain states that can access specific memory nodes. These nodes are linked to related nodes.
If you have access to any related node, you might be able to recall the complete memory…
It’s very complex, but yes, you can recall earlier dreams inside dreams earlier than while full awake. The question is… how to keep your recall?
Thats happened to me.
I’ve recalled a few dreams from when I was a kid since I started praticing for LD’s.
Like, a place I use to go to in my dreams, which was a small hidden room in my bedroom which I had a bunch of cool things I collected from my dreams, like 3d glasses and rocks that had powers.
The rock with powers I just remembered recently, and used it to fly through the water, and glide on the top of it really fast.
