Hi everyone. I’ve had two experiences whilst lucid dreaming where It felt like my consciousness was split in two and there was two versions of me inside the dream. Let me explain.

The first time I encountered this was during my first WILD/ DEILD. I awoke from a dream in the darkness of the void and couldn’t feel my body. I instantly knew I was in a position to try WILD so I started focusing on the darkness behind my eyes and within seconds I began to see hypnagogic imagery and heard a loud noise like an old radio was been tuned up and down next to my head. I began to get a little scared by the experience and was about to wake myself up when my voice as if inside my head told me to “relax, don’t be scared and just think about what dream you want to have”. It instantly put me at ease and I didn’t feel alone anymore and it was as if the voice inside my head was coming from somewhere else and was separate somehow even though I considered it my own voice. I followed its advice and the dream began to form and I entered into a lucid dream. Now I didn’t think much of it at first and thought of it just as me talking to myself inside my head. Then came the second experience more recently. I was been attacked by a wild animal in an NLD and I was freaking out. It was then my voice came back again and This time it said “It’s ok, it’s just a dream, it’s just a dream”. Once again the voice soothed the dream version of myself and I slowly calmed down and became lucid.

Now I’m not suggesting this is my unconscious mind making contact and guiding me or anything like that but it was strange how the voice in my head felt so separate from me and was much calmer and braver then the dream version of me which was confused and scared. It was as if I was experiencing two versions of my self with completely different emotions. It felt like my waking consciousness was informing my dream self of the dream and then me and him became one. before this dream I had done a WBTB and mantra as well and I wondered if this voice was the message of my mantra that I spoke in my head coming back to remind me to become lucid?

Has anyone else experienced this and what do you thinks happening?
