Interesting conjecture homer..have not thought of it that way... albeit i have yet to experience astral projection so i'm biased for now
as for the dream recall i guess a better question would be out of how many nights a week do you remember dreams... regardless though I am going to tell you to start a dream journal.
Which is basically a log of all your dreams that you remember. weather you dreamed them at night or in the afternoon you write them down soon as you get the chance...which should be soon as you remember them.
nothing to fancy for this a spiral notebook is what i use. a text document on the computer. what ever works best for you.
what this will do is rain your recall even more. as you dream any where from 3-8 times a night depending on how much you sleep. it will also increase there clarity and eventually show you reoccurring themes in your dreams which will help to condition your thoughts to make you lucid ( if at any point this makes no sense let me know ill clarify better)
@comp yeah I need to bump that topic eventually xD and very interesting dream...magic school bus was amazing when i used to watch it in elementary school xD
