Okay, so prior to falling asleep last night, I found myself watching videos by this guru dude about lucid dreaming and astral projection. And he showed me a way to lucid dream easily, which I may start doing because it kinda worked last night. I awoke after about 4 hours of sleep and began the process. After I fell back asleep, I saw what he told me I'd see. It's like a bunch of different dreams flying by your eyes all at once, and then you finally get put into one. Mine was involving me waking up from my bed to tell me parents that I had a lucid dream that night, but unbeknownst to me, I was still confined within the dream world. So after I realized I was still in the dream, I still tried to convince my dream parents that I was having a lucid dream and went on to prove it. It was raining that morning so I decided to stop the rain and change the time of day to dusk instead of dawn. But something strange happened. I slipped away from the "lucidity" of my state of mind and ended up just having a normal dream after that. Not sure how it happened, but I know it can happen! And since I've had lucid dreams before and know they can be accomplished, I may try astral projection at some point. If not, lucid dreaming is enough for me. But now I know I can still do it so it has me pumped! I'm currently writing a novel so this is very useful to me if I want to make my novel almost reality and play the part of the main character to help me define and create the story in real life. Have you ever had a lucid dream before? If so, what was your experience? If not, would you ever like to have one? Do you even know what a lucid dream is? [spoiler]A lucid dream is any dream during which the dreamer is aware that they are dreaming, allowing him or her to consciously perform feats not permitted by terrestrial boundaries, such as flying or weather manipulation.[/spoiler] EDIT: I'm surprised by the large amount of responses. I had a few ask me about the video I watched and here it is. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BJFujtC5nYs
