Recently some of the LD's I've been having have been unwanted/unintentional. Mostly it is just blackness where I cannot move and I am just floating around the room in circles or weird patterns... this is often accompanied by distorted voices or noise and sometimes very beautiful music that I wish I could remember upon awakening. From what I understand this is some kind of sleep paralysis? This is usually not frightening for me, though there ARE times when I feel like if I open my eyes I'm going to see something I don't want to see. Nothing specific... I just know it's going to be something frightening or weird. Other times I try to open my eyes while I'm floating around like this and nothing, it's still black. I can always shake my head quickly to wake myself up, but then I have to go back to sleep to get rest.

Other times I'm actually thrown into a lucid dream where I am walking around/interacting with the environment. But sometimes I am in scenarios I do not like. Last night I had a dream where I was outside in front of my house but it was dark out and I knew that it was bad for it to be dark. I tried making the sun come up to no avail (I have changed my environment before successfully). In another dream I was in my basement and it was dark, once again I did not like that it was dark and attempted to lighten the room, to no avail. Now I understand that changing your environment might be a more advanced technique so I'm not super concerned with learning how to do that on command, but I am concerned with learning how to prevent LD's when they are unwanted/unintentional.

I do wish to get back into lucid dreaming but I want to at least keep unwanted LD's to a minimum. What do you guys think?
