The Nines. The layers, signals and re-interpretation of signs will strike a chord with anyone who has gotten caught in false awakenings; and ultimately, perhaps an interesting idea about the relation of lucid dreams to reality. The grasshopper reality check (after watching the movie): tie a green band, string, twine or rubberband on your wrist and whenever you notice it by sight or feel during the day, do a reality check. First try to change its color. Next pinch your nostrils together and try to breath through your nose. If either of these work, you’ll know you are dreaming. More on reality checks in the next post.
