Anyone know what it’s like to lucid dream? In general I like dreaming more than life, and many days I feel depressed the very moment I wake up. But when you know you’re dreaming and have total control over it, it’s incredible. It tends to happen for me when I take a nap after being awake for just a few hours. Last semester on certain days I only had morning classes with nothing to do for the rest of the day, so I’d come home and go back to bed. This is when I would lucid dream.
It’s been awhile since I’ve had a dream where I was in complete control, but today I had a semi-lucid dream. I was on the verge of sleep and started to see beautiful waves of colors. It was sort of like fields of wheat blowing in the wind, but it kept changing to different vivid colors. And I had control over the waves and the colors. It’s like I was inside my own painting, and I had a large paintbrush and was directing everything.
