i have had quite a few dreams of being underwater. and i can breathe underwater in all of them.
supprisingly i have never become lucid when realising i can breathe underwater. each time i wake up i tell myself if it ever happens again you must know you are dreaming and become lucid. but it never does.
most of my dreams undewater include a nice big reef with lots of fish and of course sharks (my favourite animals)
I’ve never gone underwater in an LD, though I have several times in NDs. Usually, though, I’m drowning in them. I’m always in a pool, never in an ocean or anything like that (though I wish I was!)
Water is a typical DS for me too, but that doesn’t mean I usually recognize it! Yep, I’ve voyaged a bit. Sometimes I can breathe underwater, but once I noticed I just wasn’t breathing at all.
I had a brief dream last night where I was underwater. It was wicked short though. I realized that I was underwater, thought about this post and then became aware that I was breathing. Then I woke up.
Underwater dreams are great. So far, I’ve never been lucid while underwater, but my NDs involving undersea travel are great fun. Such a strange feeling to breathe water, isn’t it? A lot like breathing through a plugged nose, as a reality check.
