The Difference Between Lucid Dreams and a Lucid Dream. Circles in Dreaming
Question: Distinction between lucid dreams and a Lucid Dream
Another couple of questions – I'm interested in the criteria by which you distinguish lucid, or in other words, transparent dreams, from a Lucid Dream.
Answer: Lucidity as the first stage
Actually, it's very simple. Lucidity is, as it were, the first stage of a Lucid Dream. You already become aware of yourself in Dreaming, learn perception, and perform the simplest actions. But various investigations, experiments, encounters with infiltrators and other dreamers are possible only in a Lucid Dream. In lucid dreams, there isn't enough energy for this. You yourself can recall hundreds of cases when, at the most interesting point, you were pulled out of a Lucid Dream back into a dream.
Question: Regarding circles
The second question is about circles – I dedicated about 10-15 instances of Dreaming to drawing circles on the ground. More precisely, not to circles as such, but they were an integral element. I didn't notice any difference from reality.
Answer: The difficulty of completing a circle in a Lucid Dream
My friend was re-reading Castaneda and came across the part where CC drew circles around the Dream Hackers' house. In a Lucid Dream, my friend also tried to draw a circle around his house and couldn't complete this task. When he told us about it, two other dreamers also took on this challenge, and they too couldn't connect the circumference. Perhaps you will succeed?
