Dear Walking on Water: What a beautiful lucid dream. It sounds peaceful and spiritual and as though you were completely content with yourself. It is amazing how vivid our dreams can be, isn’t it? People who can’t walk do dream of walking. I have a friend of mine who is paralyzed from an accident and […]
nude and lewd
Hi Sue— Congratulations on figuring out how to become “lucid” in a dream. It’s not an easy trick to pull off, but you’ve already identified two of the most frequent doorways that people use to enter their dreams consciously. A lucid dream is defined as a dream in which a dreamer knows he or she […]
a better place
I want to respond to the person who wrote about their father who died – and who then made contact through an obe. When I was 17 years old, I lost the love of my life in an accident. At the time, there was speculation as to whether or not alcohol was involved. About a […]
stages of lucidity
Hi Erica – It is my perception that spontaneous occasions of lucid dreaming occur more frequently in younger people – ages 10-25 or so – than in older people. We most likely would look for a biological cause for this “window” of lucid dreaming. Certainly our hormonal systems are most active during these years, as […]
a spirit in love
The other night I was playing with a Ouija board with a few of my friends. The spirit said that he used to be in love with me and he visits me in my dreams. I was just curious if this could be true, that spirits or the dead can visit with us while we […]
gate to freedom
I’m in a small green truck driving slowly on a bumpy, rocky downgrade, headed toward a green, swinging vertical gate’—which looks more like prison bars, suspended on a chain link fence. The wind is blowing this gate (not the fence) back and forth from center, allowing just enough space to pass thru. I continue toward […]
wake and return to sleep
Hi Kim – Inducing a lucid dream is indeed frustrating – they simply don’t seem to arrive on call. But take a look at the next dream in this section for a tip on inducing dreams that you haven’t yet tried, and which actually is simpler and less expensive; drinking a tall glass of water […]
a visit in a bar
One of the most lucid dreams I ever had was years ago and still I remember it clearly. It was in the middle of the afternoon when I decided to take a nap and was resting on my stomach across the top of the bed. While asleep my husband left the house and I wasn’t […]
an experience
About a month ago I had this dream about a male friend of mine who I hadn’t seen for years, but still felt a very close bond with. The dream started with me having this huge party which I wasn’t aware of the event for doing so. All of my friends where there, including my […]
gate to freedom
Hi Anonymous— Cars in dreams represent ourselves; the “direction we are headed” in our lives. The uneven road suggests a bumpy and rocky period in your life (emotionally turbulent), on your path to a destination. The swinging gate that reminds you of prison bars represents a way out, an opportunity for you to escape this […]
losing my hair
Hi Anonymous— I bet you checked your hair in the mirror when you awoke from this dream! Dreams of losing hair actually are fairly common. In some dreams (like yours) we stand in front of a mirror and notice new bald spots on our heads. In others we may be pulling our hair out in […]
my spiritual dreams
I have always had very spiritual dreams. When my Grandfather passed away he came to me to say good-by. My father was in the hospital. I dreamed that I was with him in a lighted hall with 7 doors. The last one I opened was like a vacuum and once I put my foot in […]
