So I decided to join this "social network" if you will and I've also decided to get into Lucid Dreaming out of pure curiosity and out of the interests of the possibilities as well as the benefits towards my mind and personal evolution.

For quite some time I have practiced and explored the world of lucid dreams. This is technique where you become conscious of the fact that you are experiencing a dream state of awareness. It has been used throughout civilizations history to have visions and commune with spirits. And is a common technique in shamanic cultures.

For some time now I have been practicing the art of lucid dreaming. For those of you who do not know what this is it is becoming conscious and aware just as you are in your waking life in your dream.

I've been studying lucid dreaming for about 8 years. Lucid dreaming is simply being in a dream and realizing that you're in the dream as opposed to being in the dream and having the thought not even cross your mind that you could have crossed dimensions. I know most of this crowd knows the difference but you'd be surprised how many people have never even heard of the concept.

Dreams and lucid dreaming have always fascinated me. The ability to roughly control and shape your experience inside a dream allowing yourself to fly, truly, if that is what you wish. As of late though, my dreams have become sinister, my dreams are wanting to control me, not allowing me to leave, and at points, outright attacking me.
