Default Re: OT: Lucid Dreaming

Good question. The idea is that sometimes the subconscious needs some help. Nightmares are seen as representing areas where the subconscious is not processing something successfully or areas where the subconscious is trying to tell the conscious brain there is a problem. If you can be lucid or semiconscious while in a dreaming state, you can link the two sections of your brain together.

From there, you can either help sort out a problem or come to realize that there is a problem that you need to consciously deal with.

Also, it can be fun to be in dreamworld and actively participate, rather than just observing!
