Lucid Dreaming | Discussion Thread - How do you control a lucid dream?

For me personally, it goes like this.



You realize that dinosaur over there flying with a jetpack made out of unicorn bones and spraying colloidal liquids is unrealistic, and probably a figment of your imagination. "This is a lucid dream!" You valiantly cry out.

Now what?

You're responsible for everything that happens in the dream. Not accountability, since cops aren't going to beat you to death with a nightstick in your home if you fantasize about Megan Fox and Jessica Alba in a threesome with you. Not that kind of accountability.

Everything.

Everything created before you were lucid. You have control over it, but with great power... you know the saying.

You have to be able to justify to yourself why you want to fly around. How will you get around? If there are any gaping holes in your dream that you know about, the dream can't create it itself, you have to create it for the dream. Otherwise, dreamworld.exe has stopped working. This is because when your logic capacitors wake up, the ones that helped you attain lucidity, they also are fully aware. You're also responsible for making textures [The colors and shades of objects] look realistic. Think; What would this telephone look like in real life? However, your subconscious creativity helps you work out models. Just imagine what it might look like in real life, and BOOM. There you go. Some textures become preloaded with your dream. If you don't spawn things into your dream that often, and just use your surroundings for your endeavors, your logic capacitors will convert them into something usable without you losing synchronization. For things you spawn in, you'll need to answers some questions you have to ask yourself.

This jetpack, for example, flies because of propulsion. Dreams [I]do[I] have to make sense to you if you become lucid. If you don't know what a rainbow tastes like, and you try to lick one, what will happen? Most likely, your dreamworld will become unstable, and you'll have to resynchronize with it by telling yourself it tastes like skittles.

You're also responsible for your own sensory input.

See, your mind is a great thing. Your pre-planned dream was carefully thought out by your subconscious. It didn't expect you to take over like a robot prior to leading a revolution. It knows how comfortable the jetpack will feel on your shoulders. You, however, are in charge of making that feeling. You have to craft it according to synchronization in reality. This won't feel ice cold or burning hot, because it's cotton inside a black mesh fabric. It doesn't make sense if you make the black mesh coal-blazing hot, and you know it. This could create even more problems. What happens to your shoulders? Do they start on fire? Melt off? How will it feel when they melt off? Hurt like hell, or grow back? See, if it's unrealistic, it creates a chain-reaction with assistance [or lack thereof] with the logic that helped you attain lucidity. You have to keep things to a logical minimum. Imagine telling Albert Einstein why this is happening.

"Why are you blasting off into space with nothing strapped to you to give propulsion?"

"I'm a sorcerer. The propulsion is created by tiny micropockets full of fire energy that spontaneously combust beneath my shoes to blast off into space.

You have to tell yourself that this is logical according to what you know and your self skepticism. That doesn't mean you can't have fun, it means you're limited by what your logic thinks, since your logic is fully awake when you become lucid. That's lucidity itself. Finding a logical flaw in a dream.



Unless you've somehow mastered it and every dream is lucid, and you're a genius with this sandbox game called dreaming, and default-ly enter dreams lucid.
