Can people control what they dream about?

Answer 1

If you practice, I've done it. You can only do it, when you're wake up in your dream!

Answer 2

Yes they can, you can have lucid dreams in which you excert some type of control over what happens. Lucidity begins during a dream when you realize you are dreaming. There are different ways to approach controlling dreams. A method that does not require lucidity is predetermination: selecting the setting or
topic of the dream prior to sleep. This takes a lot of practice. Also if you wake up slightly during a dream and realize that you were dreaming, try to go back to sleep immediately thinking of what you were just dreaming. With practice you will find that you can continue the dream and during the first few moments you can actually control what happens. I've never had any control beyond that because I go back into "unconscious dreaming".

Answer 3

Some people can do it after years of practice, but generally people don't, at least those I know.

Sometimes on rare occasions you could be half asleep (this happens to me sometimes) and you could be slightly aware of your surroundings, therefore be able to control what you dream.

Answer 4

Well most of the time when you think about something you tend to dream about it but no one really knows.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
