Title: Meeting someone during a lucid dream
Post by Rebecca on Jul 16^th, 2009 at 8:30pm

Has anyone tried to meet with a partner during a lucid dream? I'm sure it's possible, just wondering if anyone was successful and if the other person was also aware.

Cheers,
Rebecca

Greetings again,

In host Bruce Moen's terminology, such meetings are called partnered explorations. A whole forum here is dedicated to it -- take a look through that forum's index for a quick sense of what people have experienced.

Hi Bets...is there no difference between a partnered exploration initiated through lucid dreaming and phasing? I wasn't sure, that's why I posted this on the dream board. I just wanted specific information on lucid dreaming only.

Thanks!

You're way beyond me, Rebecca :D

I get confused on the difference between phasing and lucid dreaming. Sometimes I 'take off' while awake (phasing?) and sometimes I take off while asleep (lucid dreaming?).
Any help in defining the two states will be appreciated! :)

You got it Bets! Do both ways of "taking off" take you to the same places?

Hi Rebecca,

To my mind they do. :)

Lucid dreaming has been much debated here. The site search (above right) only gives you a few of the entries. Spooky and Berserk are two respected thinkers who have posted intersting comments in the past, from totally different viewpoints.

I believe/ think that lucid dreams are a doorway to any non-physical reality but may sometimes stop short of the full potential of exploring the non-physical. Does that make sense?

I think there is no reason why lucid dreams in general should be something different to entering nonphysical realities in other ways, like meditation. For example, I once had a "normal" dream. Things were just happening, and I did not think about it much, as usual in my normal dreams. Then I started thinking about where I was, and how I got there: I suddenly had my full waking-state consciousness, and it was just the same as being in the physical, and at first I thought I had to see a doctor immediately because I obviously have amnesia. Then it turned into a classic OBE where I found myself back in my room where my body slept.
