Lucid Dream?
 

offline Zeus from San Francisco (United States) on 2002-11-18 08:22 [#00446355]

so i was dreaming last night, and suddenly i was like "hey
wait, is this a lucid dream?" and then i thought really hard
to make the dream change, and It didnt seem to work. so i
was like, bah whatever.

But then later on in the dream, I was making out with Julia
Roberts... so I dont know...

unless you wanted to be making out with Julia Roberts
(actively, I mean..), it didn't work.

but you can have a lucid dream and not have control. I've
had that lots of times. the dream looks real silly then..

well, i was thinking to myself "they say in lucid dreams,
you can be with anyone you want"

and then i was just thinking "someone famous"

but it didnt work. so i let the dream continue.
And then later in the dream, I was making out with Julia
Roberts... but at this time, I dont think I realized it was
a dream anymore...

Dreams are not lucid or non lucid dreams. They can be
something in between..

I've had lucid nightmares.. why doesn't that make sense?
they're just dreams as well..

actually, being aware that they were nightmares made them
less scary - I could look at them with a distance ("oh this
is just a dream..").

I can usually change nightmares via lucid dreaming. For
example last night I incapacitated my captors by breaking
their arms. Still one of them managed to kill me using this
weird remote control thing. Bah.

I just assumed that since lucid dreams are dreams that you
can control (right?) you wouldnt have a nightmare, unless
you willed it to happen?

well lucid dreams more or less means that you are
aware that you are dreaming - the taking control is a
next step.

even then, the control is not complete (you have a huge
subconscious to box up too..)..

myself "hey, i think im dreaming"

Yes, only once did I really have "total control" usually
it's just you can change little things or have control over
your own acitons- making other characters or environments
change the way you want is a bit harder...

Lucid nightmares are reasonably common. Think about it- it's
often the realisation that something is strange that causes
you to realise it's a dream, if there's some werewolf or
whatever, it's far more likely to be a dream. Unless you're
very good and can actually change all the elements of the
dream (effectively starting a new dream) the best you can do
is use the realisation that it's a dream to give you some
degree of control. For example, looking to your hands and
seeing a weapon. A friendly character to appear and help you
etc. lucid nightmares are rarely pleasurable, but they are a
great deal less stressful than very vivid, "normal" ones.

Up until recently, I've never thought about this, but I've
realized that I've never had anything but lucid dreams (that
I can remember after I wake up). What is it like to have
dreams where you can't control what you do or what happens
in the dream? That would be really strange.

I've had lucid dreams with full control and ones with little
or no control. I've also managed one half-ass conscious
astral projection. That was so bad ass! Magic is for real
people.

I like Lucid dreams

I usually get them when I'm ill, maby cause I'm not in so
much of a deep sleep.

I like it when you'r dreaming and the phone start ringing in
your dream when it's ringing in the wking world =oD

That always confuses the hell out of me !

Points: 18368 Status: Lurker | Show recordbag



one of my favs, was when i was falling
and kept falling
then realized i was falling
so then i closed my eyes (in the dream) and everything went
black)

it was almost like i had just woke up and kept my eyes shut

but that "falling" feeling stayed

its weird to describe

it's like if you could move your ears a lot, if you would
move them back and forth really really fast (tho prolly has
something to do with my innerears / membrane and the
equilibrium that makes my body keep it's balance.

very strange, but i scrinched my eyes tite and i kept
'falling', and the feeling stayed for a long period of time
before i got tired of doing it and somehow woke up

"This mobility registers loudly in the music of - to name a
handful - Scanner, Bedouin Ascent, Omni Trio, Oval, and
perhaps most compellingly, Aphex Twin (who we will meet
presently). On the 12 mixes of the Aphex Twin's new
"Ventolin" EP, you can hear the music's armature creaking
and complaining; it wheezes and groans like an asthmatic
forced to run for his or her life. (Ventolin is, indeed, the
drug prescribed for asthma inhalers.) From his early,
influential "Didgeridoo" track onwards, Richard James has
been combining abstract and familiar elements to
hallucinatory effect. His latest releases, "Ventolin" and
the ensuing album, I Care Because You Do, are packed with
incident. The music flickers between synthesized textures
and domestically recorded location sounds, while at other
times pollutant blasts of distortion seem to blow in and
scrage the music's skin like a burst of roadworks through an
open window. It's a highly plausible suggestion of the
borderline state between dreaming and waking."

Shit theres some good stuff here...

I ask him if his dreams seem more real than waking life. "I
think dreams are a bit more honest, because you don't lie to
yourself in dreams. I don't think you have an ego and all
this business; it all seems to disappear. The way you are in
a day is basically the way you were shaped the night before
when you were sleeping; and when you're asleep, that's when
all your thoughts are put into order - it's when your brain
does all its filing; prepares you for the next conscious
day. You could argue that when you sleep that's when all the
shit goes down."

I had a very small taste of it once, I heard you have to
look at your hands in your dream. This means you're aware
you're dreaming and also means you are "taking control"

I felt it for a sec, then felt a bt freaked out and woke up.

the only time i managed to get a lucid(ey) dream was when i
had a lightsaber. But the saber was the size of a pencil,
and it ran out of batteries, and i got chased around a town
by these strange children and i had to beat them up.

technically, you always dream. you don't remember it always,
though..

unless you drink a lot of alcohol - that can stunt dreaming
(actually it stunts REM-sleep, makes you go less deep).
