Could someone please help me? I know I’m dreaming. I’ll wake up and know I’ve had a dream but can not remember one single detail. What can I do to help me remember these dreams or at least a little part of them? ---

I’ve been there before, @Mystique. For me, my medication was affecting my dreams, so there really wasn’t anything I could do. I hope someone else has more answers for you! _(Also, I rehomed your post so it doesn’t get lost in the dream interpretations.)_ 🥰 ---

You may want to try this ritual if you’re ok working with a lovely beasty called Eurynomous. 😁💚 [https://forum.spells8.com/t/dead-and-breakfast-virtual-witch-bar-cafe-alcohol/47058?u=tracys](https://forum.spells8.com/t/dead-and-breakfast-virtual-witch-bar-cafe-alcohol/47058) Maybe adding some of @BryWisteria teas will enhance the experience too 💚 ---

Hi @Mystique! Megan makes a good point about medications affecting dreams. If you are currently taking anything, it could be worth looking into any potential dream-blocking side effects. If that’s not something you feel is affecting your dream recall, then there are few things you could try to help remember your dreams! 😀 **Magickal methods of remembering dreams:** - **Dream Tea** - [Mugwort](https://spells8.com/lessons/mugwort-wormwood-magic-properties/) is a potent tea for dreams, and [Jasmine](https://spells8.com/lessons/jasmine-magical-properties/) and [Rosemary](https://spells8.com/lessons/rosemary-witchcraft/) are also associated with dreaming. But other blends with sleep-assisting herbs like [chamomile](https://spells8.com/lessons/chamomile-magical-properties-love-luck-sleep-protection/), lemon balm, and [lavender](https://spells8.com/lessons/lavender-herbal-witchcraft/) can also assist with dreaming _(disclaimer: as with all herbs, it is wise to check with a medicinal professional and/or trusted herbalist prior to consuming new herbs as they can be very potent and may interfere with medications)_ - **Dream Pillows** - instead of consuming the herbs in tea, they can also be combined with other ingredients to make a dream pillow that assists with dreams. [Sweet Dreams Pillow](https://spells8.com/topic/sweet-dreams-herbal-sleep-pillow/). - **Lucid Dreaming** - the ability to “become awake within your dream”, giving the dreamer more control and more over their dreams. This ability can be trained using techniques. [Lucid Dreaming](https://forum.spells8.com/t/lucid-dreaming-how-to-gain-control-of-your-dreams/30253). - **Dream Affirmations** - Setting your intention to dream and to remember the dream very strongly right before you go to sleep can help direct your mind to holding onto the dream. **Mundane methods of remembering dreams:** - **Afternoon naps** - Not the best option for everyone, but sometimes taking a shorter nap at a different time throws your mind for a loop. A bit disorientated, it can help the mind to stay more alert and increase your chance of remembering the dream. _(Afternoon dreams can be wacky, though! Just a heads up 😆)_ - **Alarm** - set an alarm for an hour earlier than you usually wake up. The alarm can cut right into the dream - waking up immediately, so you remember things. This can work better than waking up slowly (when the mind forgets as it wakes up) - **Do some creative writing** - I’m taking a creative writing class and the teacher said that, after a few days of doing daily creative writing training exercises, you may start to have vivid and weird dreams. Hasn’t happened to me yet, but I guess some people have! * * * Whatever you choose to do, I hope you can find some dream recall methods that work for you, @Mystique! Blessed be (and sweet dreams)! ❤ ---

I have the same problem. After I got clean I quit dreaming. So I work on visualization and astral travel and projection ---

I give my room and pillow a spray of dream spray that I make: 125ml distilled water 2 tbsp witch hazel 5 drops lavender oil 5 drops chamomile oil 5 drops geranium oil Combine and put in a mist bottle I also say out aloud “tonight I will dream and when I awake, I will remember what I dreamt” I keep a notebook on my bedside table. As soon as you wake up, lie with your eyes closed for a few minutes to maintain some level of connection to your dream and recall key events. Make a note of them in the notebook before doing anything else as this is the ideal time for recall. Alan ---

Thank you @Cosmic_Curiosity ! I actually just ordered oils that will be here Monday! I’m giving this one a go next week. I do state out loud I’m going to remember my dreams just before laying down, but I’m thinking my intent may not be strong enough when I say it. And do have the one and paper by the bed, just in case. Thank you again! Can’t wait to make the spray and give it a try. 💜💜💜 ---
