For some reason, I can always remember my LDs, but I can hardly ever remember the point at which I realized I was dreaming. Is this normal? If not, what should I do to change it?
It’s frustrating, because it’s hard to tell which techniques actually work.
For me it varies. I think that at least sometimes the lucidity comes so gradually that you really can’t tell when it happened. Because it didn’t happen at once.
Not that it really matters, but I would like to be able to remember the exact point that I realize I’m dreaming. It would help a lot with determining which techniques work and which ones don’t.
I suppose there could be something to gather from it but Isn’t it easier to see what techniques you are doing and seeing if you get lucid when you do that tech?
I agree with Moogle that its a matter of dream recall.
95% of time I can remember non-lucid portion before I became lucid. In about 25% of LDs, there is no obvious reason why I became lucid. The other 75% I recognize a DS or some anomaly.
