Hey everyone… well last night I attempted a WILD but I was reading up on “Astral Projection” prior to it so I was kind of going for a mix of the two… lol, at least that was my intent though I repeated that “I’m dreaming” as I did previously.
Sadly, because my sleeping hours are currently out-of-wack I went to bed in the morning when a family member had a shower, which was quite noisy. I sort of just laid there through that…
Anyway, from what I can recall in the dream I was in a scene which looked, well I believe very clear… I was even asking someone how to become lucid in the dream because, when I was in that scene I said to myself “i’m dreaming” and it felt as if I realized I was dreaming…
This time it’s tough to say if I was LD’ing, being that I did something similar yesterday only this time things were heaps clear and I just wanted to “control” the scene and “step into” the reality because it felt like I couldn’t control my “camera” or “vision” --I suppose because of this I wasn’t really having a LD.
Yea but I can’t seem to “control” anything … i’m just stuck looking at what happens and being aware i’m dreaming. Another issue is, after about 30 seconds in the dream while asking someone in the dream how to become lucid they said something like “well, first you move eyes to the left” … as I did that (lol) my vision went all white and I faded out of the dream very quickly! ARG.
hmm well maybe you were dreaming you were lucid thats happened to me before, i yell out loud i’m dreaming! and yet i cant control anything and the dream just goes on
If you are aware that you are dreaming it is a lucid dream. If you don’t have contorl of the dream, then it is just a low level lucid dream. You can have a high level of control in an ND. You can also have no control in an ND. It is the same with LD’s. It is just that in an LD, you can work to change the level of control. You can learn to take control over the dream as the level of lucidity incresses. Being lucid does not arutomaticly give you a high level of control.
don
Very interesting… i’d say last night I probably had a “higher” level ND. I woke up managing to remember quite a lot of it and at the time when I was dreaming I felt like I was controlling it even though I wasn’t lucid.
