Thread: WILD in a dream inception?

Hi i had a dream this morning that i cant figure out if it is WILD or DILD

I woke up in morning write my dream in my DJ and tried WILD but fall asleep then i woke up in my dream it was night i tried to write in my DJ but i had no memory of previous dream i decided to try WILD and after a while of lying still i got SP and i cat see through my eye lids i open my eyes i was in my bed it was morning and i knew it was a dream but i nose RC anyway it conformed the dream was very vivid and i was very happy and 5 min of LDing i woke up i in the dream where i WILD and after writing in my DJ i woke up for real.

Now i can clearly recall it was a Lucid dream in a a dream.

From what I know you cant litterally dream within a dream, it was most likely a false awakening, where the dream scene changed to your room, you thought you was awake, only to wake up after. Sounds like a dild to me. congratulations hope you have lots more

I had a similar experience, actually. Where it really felt like in DREAM1 I fall asleep and have a lucid dream, and wake up in DREAM1 again. Meaning, the story in DREAM1 continued after my lucid "dream within a dream" effect.

I still can't figure out what that meant or how it happened. In the dream, I had an operation, and as I was being sedated I transitioned into another dream (as if I had this second dream while under sedation in the first dream) and knew I was dreaming, but when I woke back up from the sedation into dream one, the setting, environment and dream characters were still the same as before I was sedated..

If your subconsciousness decides to stay with it, it is possible to have a dream within a dream, just like MissLucy described for example. Thus it is also possible to WILD within a dream. However it still would be more of a DILD because even though you WILDed you were dreaming and thus sleeping already, you lost your consciousness before already. And the point of WILD is avoiding that. Making the WILD within the dream more like a dream sign or an obvious hint.

..wow, so it IS possible, I knew it. I just keep wondering why I was only lucid in the "2nd level" dream, and not the main dream?

I never WILD though so i have to wait and try more for a WILD .

Yeah, I didn't have a WILD yet as well, but I'm determined to soon have one. You might consider doing something like this if you're serious: http://www.dreamviews.com/f32/new-90...thread-124986/

Well that is answered pretty easy, dreams work different for everyone, I for example always hear people report false awakenings, and even though I have pretty good recall and a few lucids I didn't have even one FA yet. What that tells in this case is that you are or have at least been that moment "configured" to emulate the dream within the dream realistically. Thus including all kinds of necessery stuff to make it realistic, falling asleep, having a dream, and waking up though still inside of the first dream.
That is just one possibility though, I WILDed once in one of my dreams, I didn't knew that I was dreaming before and even though I didn't make it I felt I cam closer than ever before. Yet even though I feel asleep within the dream the next time I woke up I was awake for real. It's really mostly about what your subconsciousness feels like doing.

..my subconscious is a straaaaaaaange place XD But I see your point. I have had a few FAs, not every day, but they occur. Hmm..
