Description
When you consciously realize you are dreaming, while in the dream state, you are lucid dreaming. So, lucid dreaming requires conscious awareness of dreaming while in the dream. Normally it occurs after a sudden insight like noticing an impossible event, and you realize, “This is a dream!”
Once you realize that you are dreaming, you can think about what you want to do, make deliberate choices and act on your decisions. It’s like your own magic kingdom – you can fly around the room, ask the dream figures to explain the dream symbols, make items appear or disappear, and other incredible things.
By contrast in a normal dream, you usually accept whatever happens. If you are riding a horse, which suddenly becomes a bicycle and then a skateboard, you just unthinkingly accept it.

Brian Dahlen replied:
Thank you Irina, this is one of my few surrealist 3d.... hope to do some more soon.

A "brother of the night" Mr. Dahlen must be as I think I get this as only "one of us" could. Incredible execution and creation.
Brian Dahlen replied:
Thanks, wish I had more time to do these.... in the near future I will be blessed with less time teaching and more time creating... anyway, I find dreams are more real than "reality", the material world is just the illusion of substance.

Well constructed and rendered... Your portfolio is very inspirational Brian... Good luck in Cornwall, I lived there for a while, it was a great place to be.
Brian Dahlen replied:
Thank You, we are really looking forward to moving to Cornwall, That's where we thought we were moving a few years back... there is some spiritual connection we feel we have there, but we were sent on our journey here to Maui first.

Brian Dahlen replied:
Sometimes something happens to me that J'm not sure if I would call lucid dreaming or having a vision, I will close my eyes, and scenes and designs flash through my head at a rate almost impossible to keep up with, I wonder if this too is LD or maybe connecting to something not unlike the Akashic records.. (not sure if I believe in them myself) Anyway, thanks for the comment.
