I didn't want to hijack the other dreaming post by talk of this, but I do want to talk about it!
Are there any other lucid dreamers here?
I discovered this *mumble mumble* years back in Onmi Magazine. The commercial on TV said control your dreams. That sounded cool and I bought the magazine (first Omni I ever bought too, I still have them all, but thats a different story)
I did what they said. It was repetitive and boring and was not working. For 2 weeks I did everything right and nothing. I got quite fed up with it and stopped. Chalked it up as "oh well, I like the magazine anyway" The next night I found myself in the most beautiful crystal cathedral and something just clicked, I was awake in my dream! It was possibly the most amazing thing I have ever experienced! I stood looking at the magnificent walls of crystal knowing I was inside my own mind, this was all my creation! I walked around and touched things, the cool feel of the crystal, the ground under my feet, it was real, but not. I started to cry, and the tears were as real as any.
There was a door, a huge structure, I was asked to walk through it, I did and woke up.
I lucid dream to this day, though its a spontaneous thing,I don't induce them anymore (you don't wake up feeling like you have slept, at least for me)
I can't fly. this saddens me, my fear of heights is there in my dreams and keeps me grounded, though I did have one where I soared over mountains and it was something I tell you! But, I can swim like a dolphin and breath under water! that was a "Whoa!'
Sound like the rantings of a crazy lady? Maybe. but this is lucid dreaming!
ETA: A good song, listen to the lyrics and not watch the really cute guy singing, lol.
