Here is my brief LD summary:
I have been having dreams that I know I was in a dream for over 20 years. About 1 month ago, I received a dream book and was reading and discovered what a Lucid dream actually is. My problem over the last 20 years was I would get these dreams about every month or so and would last for only about 10 seconds, then I would get too excited and wake up. Within the last month, I stated a journal to improve dream recall and within 2 weeks I had a LD, Then I had a LD within the next week, then within 4 day's and finally 2 day's. It's been about 2 weeks and no LD's, Am I trying too hard? any advise to try. I usually have about 5 dreams a night that I remember and jot down. One thing I noticed is that the dream right before a Lucid dream has to do with a memory from the same day. make any sense?
I can't help you but I've had the same experience in that I worked very hard to get lucid, got closer and closer and then one night, bingo, fantastic lucid dream. After that... nothing. For weeks on end. did the excercises, kept the journal, still no result. So I kind of gave up, which was a shame. Then about two months later things improved drastically again. Apparently, there are fluctuations. I have the most vivid dreams before full moon. Don't ask me why. Also sleeping in a strange bed does wonders for my dreams. Just keep at it, and pay attention to your dream journal and circumstances like the lunar circle, your activities, health, when and where you sleep, etcetera. Maybe there is a clue in there.
Everyone gets dry spells, from what I've read here on the forum for the past 3 months and from personal experience. I think that if you just accept the fact that you are in a dry spell and know that eventually you will get out of it with a little patience, you will be alright soon.
Thanks for the Input,
I have 5 sleeping locations in the house that I do
Rotate, I think I had my most successful LD to date.
I have just about 2 page's of data for the journal.
Thanks again to the Forum, I tried the to focus
