Communal Lucid Dreaming: An Introductory Technique

Abstract

Even though I find all lucid dreams to be exhilarating, there is a special class of dreams that I prize more than others. These are the communal lucid dreams that I share with friends while we are all in the lucid dream state together. I want to provide other lucid dreamers with the techniques that we use to fashion these group experiences. They are very simple and l'm sure that many people will want to experiment with them. Some individuals will discover that they have a special knack for using this approach, some will find it unproductive, and some will find a variation more effective for organizing the group dreaming experience. These procedures usually work best in the early morning hours after most of your normal sleep requirements have been filled earlier in the night. The afternoon hours work well only if there have been arrangements made with the other participants. The couple or the group, must be in a receptive state of mind at the same time that everyone wants to attempt the experiment.
