A '''lucid dream''' is any [[dream]] in which one is aware that they are dreaming. This is a well-established phenomenon<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucid_dream</ref> and something which can happen to people during normal sleep. However, simple techniques can be learnt to consistently induce lucid dreams within any person who chooses to do so. If this is done, it can be utilized as a powerful method of consciousness exploration which makes lucid dreaming an important field of [[psychonautics]]. This article exists to serve as a dedicated descriptive breakdown, analysis and instructional guide regarding dreams and the behaviour of their general content, their embedded limitations and the skill sets necessary to consciously utilize them as powerful methods of self-exploration.
