any suggestions?

I'm not experienced...

But I have heard that practice make perfect.  So if at first you can't do something, try and do it the next time you are there.  Concentration, focus, and repetition usually get things done which invole the mind or will, in dreams anyways, you're the boss.  In the astral realm, I have no clue, I wish I did.  Maybe I will soon. But until then...

Be well,

I would say that it's the "usual" possible/impossible internal conflict...  A part of you (unconscious?) think you can while another part of you (conscious?) think you can't.  Still happens to me a lot of times; especially flying.  Usually, the more lucid I am, the less "weird" things I can easily do.

I personally believe that absolute control in the dream world is impossible.  Lucid or not, it is still not reality, but subconcious.  Consider when you lucid dream how quickly things around you change.  Consider also the scenery and the behavior of everyone around you.  Basically you are aware that you are dreaming, but does that really mean you have control over what you are aware of?

Hey, peeps!

Well, I hope that somone can help me fix a little problem I seem to be having.

Okay, I was dreaming, and then I became lucid and tried to fly up into the air. I lifted a bit and then dropped down. Then I tried to climb some kind of wooden thing with spikes, but was too tiered and couldn't. I also tried to walk through some kind of doors, but instead was going 'around' them. Then I tried to banish some kind of an entity, and it didn't work. (Although, some other entity came and took care of it.) In another experience (which I think was an OBE) I lifted out of my body and all that good stuff, but when I tried to change the people around me in the experience, I couldn't.

So, if anyone can help me to have more control, please do!
