Hi, it’s me again. I woke up again. I’m working on something & I have to ask, which is your dominant hand & have you ever lucid dreamed? What triggered your awareness? As usual, I will not ensorcel you with this information. Also. Look! I have a profile!

I'm right-handed and, while I often have very strange dreams that I enjoy, whenever I figure out I'm in a dream (completely randomly, by the way), I literally never do anything. And anything thats come close to lucid dreaming has just felt like I was still following the script, if that makes sense.

I’ve had one lucid dream (that I can remember). I was an industrial-era ecological researcher studying golden eagles in the Alps, and I gained awareness upon encountering one. Also I’m right-handed

My right hand is dominant and yes, I sorta have like semi-lucid dreams where I know I'm dreaming but I don't get to control what happens or else I'll wake up and completely forget.

Right, and I lucid dreamt I was birthday shopping with my friend. I think what triggered it was getting hit by a truck in the dream and walking away perfectly fine

Left handed and yes I have had a lucid dream. I was getting attacked by a dinosaur (Jurassic park style) and my only thought was “why doesn’t this hurt” Then I just got up and walked away through the jungle.

Dominant hand right, and I’ve had a lot of lucid dreams about waking up where I wake up then there’s something off so I realize I’m dreaming then I wake up again, notice something off again, realize I’m dreaming again, and it just goes on and on like this. Longest its ever happened is 7 loops tho, so not too bad.

So… you became aware and the bugs remained or are you describing a recurring dream where you didn’t become lucid?

Birds. Y’know every time I do this, it’s the people that become lucid upon seeing birds that are always the most interesting. Was the study significant to you? In the dream I mean. Did you have a sense of urgency or necessity?

Not the study itself, but I remember the sense of being “on the clock,” so to speak, due to impending weather conditions, as it seemed to be midwinter.

So, you suddenly become aware and yet it all just keeps going business as usual like your dream is a haunted house cart ride? Assuming you enjoy haunted house cart rides.

So usually dreaming about getting hit by a car has to do with fear of making a bad decision. Did you get the birthday gift then get hit and then became aware? Also did the dream seem to keep going my for a while or did you wake up shortly after? ALSO! (Very important) Did anyone else notice you’d become aware?

Well this is the most normal combination by far. A chase dream with a dinosaur? Thats anxiety about a past and/or uncontrollable situation. The will to want to control your situation probably pushed you into lucidity. You sir, have spirit. Power deep down inside just waiting to be stolen.

No but I do get this feeling that I have to do things for reasons I'm uncertain of. The people in my dreams aren't exactly people they're more like concepts of people like I'll be in a keep wrangler and look left and I won't see a person but I'll like KNOW it's a 5' 9 blonde haired dude wearing a blue button up and black jeans

Well that’s regular dream logic. Having inherent knowledge that in retrospect feels like it came from nothing. Knowing why you’re doing something, but with no context. Recognizing someone or something unrecognizable.

Well it could be a couple things. Do you often experience deja vu too? A lot of times it’s your spirit, heart, and mind telling you that it’s time for a change. Whatever your routine is, you should break from it from time to time. Take up a new hobby. Go meet a new person. Dance naked under the full moon.
