well, i find myself at the library once again. i have a couple of lucid dreaming books at home, the titles evade me. probably, Lucid Dreaming or The Lucid Dreaming Handbook. something obvious, but very interesting books. I do a lot of lucid dreaming, with varying degrees of lucidity. taking it to the next level, i'm pretty obsessed with manifesting an out-of-body experience (aka astral projection). i've come close, but not quite there yet. i take it you're a dreamer like me. my dreams are one of my favorite parts of the day. i have incredible adventures nightly. i can't relate at all to dreams that closely follow waking life experiences. and i wouldn't have it any other way, beside having conscious out-of-body adventures! if you're interested in this, check out william buhlman's books.
i haven't read either of the books you mentioned, but i will definitely check them out. my mom has the red tent, and she (and a ton of other people) have been wanting me to read it for a long time. definitely check out lynn andrews' books if you dig books centered on woman's spirituality. goddess bless!

hmmm.... i find that the more i think about my dreams and the more importance i place on them, the more i remember. you could try holding the intention of remembering your dreams as you drift off into sleep. also, if you really really want to develop your dream recall, you could try writing things down even in the middle of the night. if you wake from a dream during the night, keep paper and pen next to your bed and scribble down the gist of your dream. this did a lot for my dream recall. there is a book called Creative Dreaming by Patricia Garfield. she explores many different aspects and techniques of dreaming and dream control. very interesting book! good luck!
