Lucid Dream Guides

Many cultures believe in Spirit Guides or Dream Guides. They are often explained as entities that appear in dreams to deliver a message.

I need to first clear up the difference between a Lucid Dream Guide and a Lucid Spirit Guide. A Lucid Dream Guide can simply be an entity or object that comes directly from your subconscious mind (also known as unconscious mind). It is what is already in your brain, stored away (sometimes very deeply stored away) and retrieved during a lucid dream. In this sense a Lucid Dream Guide is not a Lucid Spirit Guide. Now don’t get me wrong, I am a very spiritual person and do believe in spirits… so I’ll continue. Your Lucid Dream Guide may be a spirit from the supernatural, afterlife, heaven, or whatever you believe in. In this case a Lucid Dream Guide can be called a Lucid Spirit Guide. Many ancient cultures strongly believe in spirit guides. I most definitely do not rule them out. For now, I’ll leave it up to you to decide if you are dealing with a non-spiritual dream guide or an actual spirit guide. For now, I will just address non-spiritual dream guides and refer to them as Lucid Dream Guides. I’ll have more to discuss on this subject later.

As a lucid dreamer, you may define and create your own Lucid Dream Guide. You create your own Lucid Dream Guide to your own specifications. It can be anyone you want it to be. It can be male or female, someone you know or have known, human or animal, organic or non-organic, a forest of trees, a mountain range or a waterfall, a super computer, or just a person. You are the creator of your personal Lucid Dream Guide.

The primary reason for a large population of lucid dreamers is to communicate and consult with their Lucid Dream Guide. Lucid Dream Guides are powerful creations that communicate with a lucid dreamer. They possess an enormous amount of insight and wisdom. Your Lucid Dream Guide can illuminate knowledge that you may have suppressed and lost somewhere in the vast prefrontal cortex of your brain. It can unravel the complexities of the information you have stored in your brain and deliver messages or wisdom to you during a lucid dream in a simplistic form. Since it is your subconscious mind, it stores all your previous life experiences, your belief system, your memories, you skills, all situations you’ve been through, and all things your five senses have ever experienced (see, hear, smell, taste and feel). A Lucid Dream Guide can have much influence over you, so it must only be used in a positive manner.

Your Lucid Dream Guide knows everything about you. It knows your likes and dislikes, strengths and weaknesses, your level of intelligence. It knows your deepest hidden secrets. Your Lucid Dream Guide is your subconscious mind communicating with your conscious mind while you are experiencing a lucid dream. A Lucid Dream Guide is you!

You can define your Lucid Dream Guide while you are awake. You can decide on a special place where you meet with your Lucid Dream Guide. You can create a drawing, token or anything to help you to think about your Lucid Dream Guide while you are awake. This will help you to remember to summons your Lucid Dream Guide when you reach lucidity in your dreams. Ironically, the mere presence of your Lucid Dream Guide in your dream is in itself a Dream Sign.

Some lucid dreamers have had their personal Lucid Dream Guide appear to them for the first time while dreaming and introduce themselves along with their purpose. It is the lucid dreamer’s subconscious mind communicating with them and getting their attention.

Just think of the endless possible ways your Lucid Dream Guide can benefit you. There is nobody (unless you believe in God) that knows you better. What a spectacular event it could be to speak to, observe, and listen to your own subconscious mind! I’ll let you decide how you want to utilize this positive, magnificent power.
