Questions

fact: one of these is actually being used by a doctor for his patients... can you guess which one?

Lucid dream is an altered state of consciousness (like trance, hypnosis, or a normal dream) where you are aware that you are in an altered state. You realize that you can take conscious control of events, you can stop things or make things disappear, and conversely, you can create and make things appear.

If you time it right or use one of the more recently developed induction techniques you can have a LD in your REM cycle, which will make it seem and feel more vivid and realistic than your waking life. No exaggeration.

If this is something you have heard of or find intriguing, what would you do in a lucid dream? My favorites are:

Flying, breathing underwater, teleportation, exploring the world on land and underwater, also the Moon, the solar system and other planets and galaxies either by flying there or using a stargate. Fly into the sun or a black hole. Conjuration, creating things, like spawning an island or a city, tell the people they are in a dream and they are not real and see how they react, fight in battles as a ninja or samurai, turn into a fighter jet and be in a dogfight, turn into other things like animals, like an eagle, horse, dragon, or even a rock or a river and see what that feels like. Talk to animals. Ride things, like a dragon, then jump off without a parachute and skydive. Swim with dolphins. Grow into a giant. Or shrink in size and explore the microscopic world. Become invisible. Other superpowers. Turn into a girl. Jump into a PC game, movie or book and become a character in the story and watch it unfold around me. Have adult fun with no limits.

More exotic stuff, like 360-vision, or freezing time. Time-travel to earlier eras of human history, the middle ages, Atlantis, or the dawn of humanity, the age of dinosaurs, or the future. Visit myself in the past, or in a past life. Visit deceased relatives. Meet my spirit guide or dream guide or my subconscious and ask questions or visit the Akashic Library. Become God. Create a new universe.
