| Transforming in LDs |
 Posted: Thu 18 Oct, 2007 |

<mod>Moved to Adventures ~Q~ </mod>
Hey guys! I've been getting very excited cus now im getting LDs way more often than before, even though they dont last a lot, I'm happy with my results. However, the only thing I've been wanting to do since I started having LDs, is to tranform into a dragon. U see, I love dragons, and I would like to see how it feels to be one. In my LDs I always remember to do it ASAP, but I just cant get it to work. I imagine the size, shape, everything of the dragon I want to transform into, and then I imagine myself transforming into it as hard as I can, but it just doesn't happen 
I've tried various techs, including one i came up with in where i imagine myself, with an arrow to my right, pointing at the dragon I want to be, but it doesnt work. Basically, transforming doesnt work at all, ive also tried transforming into a wolf.
How can I achieve transformation?

It all takes time and practice. I have no experience however, but maybe you just need to believe more that you can do it. And that you might be trying too hard, maybe you should try doing something else for a change.

Hey UCM_AXEL_ 
Believe it or not, transformations are as easy as walking in a lucid dream. The only reason why you're having difficulty is because somehow somewhere in your mind, you think the transformation itself is either extremely hard, or just plain impossible. In addition to training yourself to let go of the real world rules (physics, law, etc..) while in a lucid dream, try the following:
When lucid, look around for (or spawn) something you can eat/swallow/drink. For this example, we'll say you spawned pills. So, you have a box of pills in your hand that reads "Insta-Transformation: Become a Dragon!" Open the box, take out a pill, and confirm to yourself that once you swallow that pill, you will instantly transform into a dragon. Take the pill, stick it in your mouth, and swallow! Instantly, as the box promised, you'll become a dragon, free to fly around and burn the hell out of anything you see with your fire breath.
Try it and let me know if it works. If not, I have plenty other ways to go about it!

It didnt work 
When I gained lucidity, I used it for staying in the dream and it worked and stuff. I actually used it for a ton of things, like getting more vividness out of the dream, and all of them work, except the transforming one

I have also to suggest something
Imagine that you are a kind of bio-transformer. Go to a place where far far bellow is a sea of fire. Fall into. As you are falling, try to think that your only chance to survive is to become a dragon and fly away...
When you are in the middle, say loudly "I am transformed!!!" and try to make moves as a transformer would do if he wanted to be transformerd from robot-mode to airplane-mode.

My best advise is to not try so hard, but let it go naturally in a way. 
The problem could be that you are more wanting to transform then actually believing that you will. (This have wrecked my transformations many times...)
Try to more believe that you are a dragon (or whatever you want to transform to) instead of imagining that you are one. (Sorry if this sounded cheesy.)
With just a little time and practice I'm sure it will work.

try screaming TROGDOR!!!! off the top of your lungs, maybe?
seriously though. if i were to give advice in a single sentence, it would be something like this: wanting and expecting are two different things.
i'm sure i don't have to go to great lengths to explain that. just take a couple minutes and think it through yourself. even if it doesnt work, it's still something you should ponder for a while. surprisingly useful, that thought.

Why not you don't push yourself too hard and not to think about transforming to be a dragon.Try and do some other things,then you can try to do transforming into a dragon again.
Because most of the things that you are too desperate for it.It just won't happens.

Thought this was the best topic to post this in
I am reading "Earth, Air, Fire and Custard" by Tom Holt and came across a good way to transform yourself in a LD. You basically mould yourself like putty with your hands.
| Quote: |
"You don't actually need the hand movements, but it's easier to learn this way. All you've got to do ," he went on, "is this."
He turned his hand round, pressed it against his face and started pressing, squeezing, moving things about. First he pushed his eyebrows back a little; then he squidged the sides of his mouth together, pulled his nose to make it longer, used his thumb and forefinger to lift and smooth his cheekbones, as though his face was a lump of wet clay and he was carefully moulding it into shape. It only took him a few moments, and when he took his hand away, his face had changed completely. ......... "See?" he said, "The first few times you try it, it helps to have a mirror...

It could be used to change into an animal too

I've tried spawning things, like apples. But always fail
So I would think transforming would be harder,For me atleast, since I can't close my eyes in dreams or I will wake up.

I've never transformed before. But would it help to try something smaller? or a bit at a time. Look at your hand and try to make it change (into a dragon paw or wing, maybe). Only the hand. It might help.

I use a mirror, works every time for me for some reason, all of my lucid dreams I have ever had are at my house, so I find any mirror imagine what I want to become, and jump through as if when I come out the other side I will be what I imagined. Its like a magic wand if you will. Give it a try, I know how frustrating it can be and its hard just to imagine that you are and have it work.

Yeah being a dragon would be super cool...
"Trogdor was a man
I mean, he was a dragon man
Or maybe he was just a dragon
But he was still TROGDOR!
TROGDOR!
Burninating the countryside,
Burninating the peasants
Burninating all the peoples
And their thatched-roof COTTAGES!"
