Progressive Clarity?

[AlephOmega]

Hello all!

I'm a recent addition to this interesting little forum, and the more I read the more I find myself falling into certain... Categories, of dreamers if you will. Quite a few of you have experienced an increased clarity and intensity to your dreams as your lives progress. I would just like to know if there are those of you out there who can pause, recollect dreams of the past and compare them to how you dream now. Do your dreams seem clearer and more vivid nowadays? Do you have dreams of this sort on a frequent basis? (Three times a week to seven times a week) Do you wake up knowing all (or most) of what happened and being affected by it mentally throughout the day? And do these dreams seem to affect the way in which you interact with the world around you? (Mildly to intensely.)

I would just like to know who else is in the same boat as myself. I'm only 24, and I've had more than my fair share of extremely lucid and even epic dreams at times, but moreso now than any other time in my life. Do you think it has anything to do with mental evolution? (Both spiritual AND physiological) Give me some opinions and experiences please!

Thanks!
