Finding Your Dreamguide (3 In 1 )

Great post! Very helpful and you have put a lot of thought into it.
Personally, I believe that our DG is simply our unconscious/subconscious put into a physical form in our dreams. We are unable to consciously interact with our unconscious/subconscious in the waking life. I believe that our dreams are the key to understanding ourselves better by having direct contact with our unconscious/subconscious.
I have yet to meet my DG (or so I think) and I still have trouble with obtaining lucidity, but I'm sure I'll meet them one day. :)

Wow, thanks! This seems helpful. Going to try this tonight if I have an LD. :content:

Btw, when you say to respect your DG, what if you're having a non-lucid dream and end up dissing/hurting/pissing them off in someway?

I've been doing some promoting..since your tutorial helped me out so much;)

lol. i never knew what a DG was 'til i read this.....i will now find him,her,it and tell you when i find it!!!thanks for the help!

OH!OH! I found him!His name is Cornelius.I tried the thing where you go up to the door and open it and your dream guide will be on the other side,it didn't work and worked at the same time......I became lucid a couple nights ago and i decided to try to find my DG so i make a hallway with a door at the end.As i was walking toward the door to open it someone called my name from behind me.I turn around and there is this guy standing there.I am thinking oh well that was unexpected and ask him if he is my dream guide.He says yes and tells me his name.i then ask him a bunch of questions(they are getting fuzzy because this was a couple days ago...)and he answers and it all makes sense to me.I then remember this thread and ask if he can change into different things.He replies he will be whatever i need.So i attempt to change him into a dragon but he says he will be what i Need.:roll:.Oh a question are dream guides always the opposite sex?right....well thanks for helping me find him!!!!!!!:D

This was an interesting post, and it caught my attention when I started reading because, when I was a kid I used to have nightmares about the wind.

But it wasn't the wind as an element but more of an entity. The wind was a being that would constantly haunt me or try to kill me.

Well anyways I had this one dream where the wind was strangling me with my curtains (this post is sounding so ridiculous right now), anyways I called to my mom and she comes out with this annoyed look on her face and says 'You two should stop fighting and be friends'.

And that was it, we just agreed to suddenly be friends, but it didn't end there. Every dream I had after that if I ever got into trouble, like a nightmare, I could call on the wind and it would come and battle away any monsters or bad things that were attacking me in my dreams.

Eventually I grew out of those dreams, but that transition was so amazing and random, I just have no idea why it happend. I'm wondering if maybe the wind was my dream guide. It was a lot like my protector, I used to have A LOT of nightmares, so much so that I would never lie on my sides when I went to bed for fear of dreaming.

Anyways when the wind became my friend in my dreams, the nightmares eventually stopped happening, and since then I've only had a nightmare once in a while. Can anyone explan this?

maybe it was because you knew you would be protected by the wind ,so you felt safe in your dreams and you stopped imagining bad things, thus you stopped the nightmares?

True, but wouldn't it be interesting and somewhat of a break through if we could convince children who are burdened with restless sleeps due to nightmares and night terrors, that if they simple find the main instigator in their dream and befriend it, it would end their nightmares.

I'd love to see a study done on this to see if children are actually able to attain enough lucidity by writing their nightmares down and identifying the main culprit in each dream. Then recognize that culprit to attain lucidity and befriend it. Therefore ending nightmares for them by relying on this dream hero of sorts.

lol.that reminds me of a nightmare i had recently.....my brother was trying to kill me and succeded but i didn't (and did die) and we were all happy and joking afterwards it was odd.....

Found mine ^_^ found him before I even read this thread lol.

Funny old guy, kinda overweight with a red nose last time I saw him. Kinda like he has a cold lol. Grotty old clothes too like he works in a coal mine or something :P Always talks in riddles lol, havent seen him for years though and I guess I wasnt ready back then. Only reason I know it was him was because he kept coming back and he was the only eliment in the dream to change each time. Id go through the exact same dream during the night and right at the end just before my dad will wake me up Id find him, sitting on a fence post lol. He would always get up and run a couple steps before I would get woken up but once or twice near the end of my reoccuring dream cycle I caught him! "Who are you" I said, "There are many who are (just) like me" he'd say lol. Really helpful DG he is :P Cant remember if he said "just like me" or "like me" but same message basically :P word for word other than that!

A few nights ago I was searching for my dream guide and I used the technique where you say they'll be behind you when you turn around. A sort of homeless-looking guy showed up and I asked him if he was my dream guide. He said yes, but I was skeptical so I asked him again and he laughed and said no and was acting very strange. Then he left.
Last night I tried again and a young boy around my age appeared with a big, deformed grin. He wouldn't answer any questions and acted as if I didn't exist. I took his phone and walked away.

So my search for my dream guide is turning out to be somewhat comical. :)

Thanks for the great thread! I was unsure if i had found my dreamguide, but now i am almost certain that it is. Mine is in the form of my best friend, who often helps me out in real life. He's helped me in 2/3 of my lucids.

Hi!

I came across this post and was blown away. I have been practicing LD for the last month or so, and successfully has 4 LD's. Granted not much came of them, but practice takes perfect!

When i reading this post, at first i just thought it was weird and couldnt happen, then remembered two things, if i can LD, then clearly a dreamguide exists.

Then it dawned on me, I have met my dream guide but did not realise it at the time. At the top it mentions DG's will look directly at you (into your eyes)

I was in a bar, on a raise platform, and i became only half lucid (i knew it was a dream but couldnt control it, (like i said only been doing this for a month or so)) and a group of people walked passed me, and one of them grabbed me, turned me round, held my arm, looked directly at me and said "come with me", and i stupidly said no I cant and awoke almost instantly, to have a strange sensation all over my body. Could this have been my dreamguide finally making basic contact, now that I am LDing by 'choice'?

And thinking about it more, when I was younger (before i knew of lucid dreaming and DG's) in the dreams and nightmares I had, occasionally their would be this one person who would look directly at me.....could this have also been my dream guide just watching me?

That's interesting, that you have met your DG before having heard of it.
That's sort of evidence that the Dream Guide actually exists no matter what.

And yeah "if i can LD, then clearly a dreamguide exists." That's right, anything can be done in an LD. It's not a question of "Does DG's exist", it is a question of "Is DG's just part of your dream, or is it actually a self-aware, conscious actually living creature?"

But if it were to be the first, I would think that you would only meet it after having heard of it. Which is why I find it very interesting, your post.

By the way; I believe the DG is part of your dream, and it will be as realistic as you believe it is. Heck, I even believe that every DC in your dreams could be just as smart as DG's, if you just believed it. (And payed attention to it.)

Thunderbox that is a great experience, thank you for sharing that with us!

to answer some of your questions, It may have been your DG coming into contact with you. 1 question I have for you is you had said something about having a feeling overcome your body after waking up? Did this happen to you or were you referring back to my experience. And if it did happen to you, what did it feel like?

Another experience I had shared in my tutorial which is still mind blowing to me is when i literally first met my DG she said she had tried contacting me Last Fall....

After the dream had ended I looked in some of my old Dream Journals I had and there was a dream a year prior that had taken place in the fall..

The dream had started off with me riding a bike down a sidewalk and I saw this lady and a bunch of guy's surrounded her and they were hitting on her (verbally) .. I ended up getting off the bike and walking over there and breaking the whole thing up..

The girl in the dream walked away with me.. Now imagine walking down a sidewalk backwards while the person infront of you was walking normally.. so you 2 would be face to face basically..

That was the way her and I were walking.. when we got down the sidewalk a bit she leaned into my ear and clear as a human voice whispered "I already know who you are, I just dont want anyone to know, that I know you...."

I mean just such a crazy experience.. I woke up later from the dream with feeling of like energy pulsating up and down my body.. From head to toe..I could tell where the energy was as it moved up and down my body and the hair on my body would stand up on end as it was almost like "Tracing" my body or almost scanning it.. That happened everytime she was in my dreams... I didnt have an experience like that in any dreams before in my whole life, and have not since.. Like i said it was only in the dreams where my DG Anna was in...

Just thought I would share that experience again!

I woke up this morning but didn't feel like actually getting out of bed, so I rolled over and fell back asleep. I was dreaming that I was in a room, and somehow I remembered that I just rolled over so I knew I was dreaming. So I said "where is my dream guide?" and suddenly a girl appeared in a doorway and I got a strange feeling that she was my dream guide. I didn't ask her if she was though. And some of her advice was really odd. I asked if there was anything she was trying to tell me, and she told me to "go to userve.net and play level 11 with the machine guns and just look at the scenery." I was like "ok" it sort of made sense at the time. But I got good advice on which job I should go for out of all the ones I had applied to. So I'm not 100% sure it was my real dream guide. I might find out tonight because she told me "I'll see you after the next day" and then had me wake up. I have to remember to ask if she's my dream guide, that would've been key.

This is such an interesting discussion, I really enjoy reading the thoughts from everyone who has contributed.

On the one side, there's the perspective that your dream guide is a manifestation of your subconscious, which knows more about you than you know yourself.

On the other side, there's the perspective that you're in complete control of your dreams, so believing in a dream guide is simply tricking yourself by limiting your own dream-capabilities.

It basically comes down to the standard theological discussion of "Can God microwave a burrito so hot that even he cannot eat it?" except ours is
"Can we create a dream-being so wise that even we cannot match it?"

I think the deciding factor is whether or not you've got full lucidity or not, and conclude that a dream character is a useful tool for achieving full lucidity, but it might be best to attempt to merge with them instead of letting them remain a separate entity, if you're working towards full lucidity.

I don't think it's tricking yourself by limiting your dream capabilities. I'd go with the first perspective you mentioned, that your dream guide is a manifestation of your subconscious. I believe that your subconscious does indeed know more about you than yourself, and by summoning it in the form of a dream guide, you are able to find out a lot about yourself by means of simply asking.

I suppose it also depends on whether or not your definition of full lucidity involves the ability to easily access your subconscious. If you can't access it at all in dreams, then it might improve your ability to meet a dream guide. If you can access it whenever you want, the dream guide's just another dream character.

the way i see it people are just scared of some parts of themselves or nervous or anxious about what they truly believe because they don't want to take a side. that would mean they now have a responsibility to what they believe in and they now must protect their beliefs. if they just simply ignore themselves or lie to themselves they have less responsibility to themselves and their beliefs, therefore they feel they don't have to do anything or protest anything because they have no beliefs.this i believe is the main problem with society today people are too afraid to face themselves and their beliefs to actually do something.sorry i rambled.....:oops:anyways the point is about dream guides is that they are a way in dreams for people to face themselves and learn about themselves,about what they truly want and need, in a safe environment where they wont be judged by others so they learn the truth about themselves.people can ask dream guides anything about themselves and get a true answer because they don't feel limited or pressured by society in the dream world.

I think one of the reasons manifesting your subconscious as a dream guide is helpful, is that you're asleep and can focus more on your thoughts, as dreaming is just your thoughts. I can only think of 6 questions if I meet mine again :? Most of which are just me being indecisive

thanks for this... I've been wondering about my dream guide and how I can meet one. I've thought about just asking a random dream character to become my dream guide.

Oh my god. This is the most amazing thing that I have ever read in my life. I had no idea what a dream guide was. Thanks you so much for writing this!
