Interested in Lucid Dreaming & Astral Projection?

[I_Am]

Hello, I wonder If I could use this thread for some hints/advice?

Had this remarkable dream tonight:
I was walking in a forrest, and behind a small hill I could see a trail of smoke.
I went over the hill and moved towards the source of the smoke; a small fire.
By the fire was a person, I believe female, from the Avalon forum. The person was very full of humour and smiling, explained to me that she/he really was on purpose intruding into my dream.
And so I became half awake in the dream state. And decided to counter; thus I myself intruded into his/her dream, where I build a small tower of earth, gems, sticks and stones. As I remember this was the end of the experience.

I have had intruders in my dreaming since I was a child, numerous times. Especially one being, which I call my "shadow", has entered my dreams with a striking periodicity - about every half a year. This was, though, one of the very rare occations when I actually have communicated with the intruder - and clearly got some kind of identification.

If anyone here recognize this I would be very, very happy to get some feedback.
