What is Lucid dreaming?

Question

If you can do it give an example of one you had and what it meant.

Answer 1

i have these often but the other night was different. I will try to explain, i was sitting at a computer late at night talking to a man from Liverpool who seemed to be everything that a woman could ask for, funny, kind, strong and nice and also very good in the bedroom.... but as we all know this is impossible... so hence, it was a Lucid dream and it is because of this that he was so sweet, i had the power to make him wot i wanted him to be, no other explanation for it .... do u understand that, or does it sound like B.S.

Answer 2

Lucid dreaming (also known as dream consciousness or conscious dreaming) is dreaming while being aware that you are dreaming. To actually have a lucid dream you merely have to recognize that you are dreaming. Realizing you are dreaming may not seem all that special, but becoming aware that you are dreaming presents the opportunity of controlling dreams. The idea is that once you are aware you are dreaming you can alter your dreams and dictate what happens: you can do anything you’ve ever wanted and go anywhere you’ve ever desired. Furthermore, everyone can learn how to have lucid dreams. Sound too good to be true, or perhaps a little too “new-ageish?” Lucid dreaming is very real and very possible, and there are many practical and down-to-Earth reasons to experiment with lucid dreams. Are you a little apprehensive over the idea of controlling your dreams, for various reasons? You can also use components of lucid dreaming to simply aid in dream recall, to provide you with more of an opportunity to deeply explore your dreams, and to even help increase the chances of you dreaming about things that you’d like to dream about—without having control. Regardless, we are getting ahead of ourselves here. A good place to start is with a more complete explanation of just what constitutes lucid dreaming.

Hope this helps !

I'm surprised psyschic-junkie hasn't put his/her cut-n-paste lol.

I like Tragedy's answer to what a lucid dream is.

One the first lucid dreams I had was my sister and I were with a group of friends when I looked around me and realized I was dreaming. It took a couple of tries but I drew circles in the air with my finger. I quickly started telling her that we were dreaming and explaining that we could do anything while she looked at me like I was crazy. She didn't get it. So I jumped up to the top of a large building. Then my work called and woke me up.

I was spending the night at friend's house when an eagle flies into the room after something on the floor but misses. We laugh at it which makes it mad. I looked out the window to see it on the roof glaring down at me. As I looked on the ground, there were about a dozen cats dead with their insides ripped from them. I was terrified for a moment. Then I was walking down a street, turned around and became aware that it's all a dream. I didn't control any of it; it was enough to know none of it was real.

What they meant? No idea. I now turn off my phone and practice other ways of initiating lucid dreams so I can hope to avoid the bad dreams and do whatever I want.

Answer 4

Lucid dreaming is the conscious perception of one's state while dreaming, resulting in a much clearer ("lucid") experience and sometimes enabling direct control over the content of the dream. The complete experience from start to finish is called a lucid dream.
