I have been interested on the topic of lucid dreaming for some time, and was surprised when I did a search here and the most related I found was this: http://www.rooshvforum.network/thread-4521.html

Looking to direct this thread to LUCID dreaming specifically. For those who don't know, a lucid dream is a dream where you become aware you are dreaming. From that point on, you either wake up, or continue within the dream and may even become able to manipulate the dream itself.

I haven't had much experience with it. I've had two instances of lucid dreams that I remember, and they weren't that special. One I woke up right after my realization; the other I was able to fly around a bit, but woke soon after.

Interested in hearing your experiences with lucid dreams.

I've done it twice before. Once in my youth, and a couple years ago.

The interesting thing is that your mind seems to have mechanisms to try to trick you back into "falling for your dreams," or, forgetting that you're in a dream. So the first time it happened, I had an awesome time and I felt like I had a degree of power that let me manipulate variables within my dream, but I started having a conversation with someone I thought of, and ended up falling back into the dream and letting my mind dictate my dream.

My second time was a similar experience, but instead of falling back into dreaming, I woke up from the sheer excitement of the power I had with my lucid dream.

Interesting shit.
