Three-Dimensional Map of Dream Moods and Transits

Sergey Shevchenko

Recently, I grasped this idea – that regardless of what is dreamed in Dreams, they reside on different "levels" of the cocoon.

Lately, I have completely moved away from the idea of a map. The concept of a map is only necessary to simplify work: firstly, with dream memory; secondly, the idea strongly stimulates efforts towards awareness and attention in the first attention, which naturally increases the number of Lucid Dreams; thirdly, it compels one to undertake recapitulation, which again improves memory :), i.e., the mobility of the Assemblage Point. In general, there are enough positive aspects here for four, even five+ points. But this is merely a method, just one of a hundred others. Though I won't hide it, it helped me greatly, and I am grateful to all Dream Hackers and S.I. for this.

So, what Sergeich describes as a three-dimensional map of the dream atmosphere, I call the mood of the Dreaming. By remembering the mood of a particular place in a Lucid Dream, one can repeatedly move there by recalling the mood of that place (this can be called anything – atmosphere, emotions, feelings, desires, etc.). And here, the practice of intent is honed. Previously, I considered transits on the map to be like portals; now for me, a transit is something that provokes my current mood into something else (or a change of intent). And perception in a Lucid Dream is a subtle matter; in the first attention, my perception changes slightly, while in the second attention, worlds change.
