Last night i went to dream views and studied up some, and i was thinking about doing an rc before bed. So after closing out for the night i did an rc right before i went to sleep, and i had two lucid dreams last night, I've started to do rcs more during the day as well, i guess it really helped me because, it reminded me to do a reality check in my dreams. The rc that i did was, i liked at both of my hands, my right hand was normal but, on of the fingers on my left hand was bent awkwardly, my hands are normal in real life. The first thing though that gave me a tip that i was dreaming was, i saw something out of the ordinary. I was in some house i don't know if it was my childhool house or what, but it did look similar, but that wasn't the first thing i noticed. When the dream started, i was laying in bed under the covers, and i saw a black cat that resembled in size of a black panther. I thought to myself, i don't have a pet, so i knew not immediately because i was afraid and hid under the couch, but after a few seconds i knew it was a dream but i was still some what afraid. But then i got out of the bed and a few seconds later, the dream ended. The dream may have only lasted a few minutes, but at least i was lucid because i totally knew it was a dream, almost right from the beginning. I can't remember being lucid this week, but of course i did dream, all i have to do now is work on prolonging dreams. So if reality checks have worked for you, how did they work? And how much do you rc during the day?
