Lucid Dreaming and Astral Projection: A Guide to the Night Realm
Waking Up Within Your Dreams
We spend a third of our lives asleep, yet most people treat dreams as random noise. At Witch's House, we see the dream state as a portal to the subconscious and the astral realm. Lucid Dreaming is the skill of becoming aware that you are dreaming while the dream is happening.
Techniques for Lucidity
- Reality Checks: Throughout the day, ask yourself 'Am I dreaming?'. Look at your hands or a digital clock. In a dream, these often look distorted. If you do this enough while awake, you will eventually do it while asleep.
- Dream Journaling: The moment you wake up, write down everything you remember. This strengthens the bridge between your conscious and unconscious mind.
- Mugwort Tea: A traditional witch's remedy. Drinking a light infusion before bed can make your dreams incredibly vivid and easier to remember.
Decoding Dream Symbols
Your subconscious speaks in metaphors. Water often represents emotionsāis it calm or a storm? Falling often means a lack of control in your waking life. By mastering your dreams, you can solve problems and heal emotional wounds while your body rests.
