We are attempting to push back any constraints of the mind.  Our sleep is the best insight we can get into our subconscious.  This is our week of rest.  It’s the best time to be exploring the dream states.  This is amazing energy for lucid dreaming and astral travel.  To be lucid you gain some amount of control over your dream state.  I say some control, because this is something I’ve been experimenting with and their is a Universal energy that has the final say in everything.  I’ve found that it works the same in the dream state as here, that if your aligned with Divine Will, you will be supported in your creative choices.  This energy increases sleep phenomena.  There an increase in extraterrestrial experiences, and astral/out of body experiences.  When you lucid dream you enter a new state of consciousness.  Shifting into a frontal lobe, or third eye perspective.  Just as when we Awaken we become lucid here within this dream, the same rules apply.  Once lucid we can manipulate the dream with our thoughts.  I would use this energy to explore the depths of your subconscious.  The templates for your reality are found there.  Practice with your dream recall.  Journaling on your dreams can be very helpful.  Any memories you retain can be used as a portal access point during meditation.  Any dreamwork is going to work best if your not too tired.  If your waking in the middle of the night, use that as an opportunity to fall back into a lucid dream.  Binaural beats are amazing for inducing astral/out of body experiences.  You can tell your subconscious before sleep that you want to have these experiences and it will program them for you.  Before we reach full lucidity here, it must happen in the other realms first.  Practicing to lucid dream will help you become more lucid while awake here.
