Gotta say, sounds like you're about to start one of those 'I did a thing and now I regret it' stories, but who knows, right? Just in case, have someone on speed dial for when things go sideways. And don't mess up your sleep for some old legend, not worth it dude.

Total noob here but isn't lucid dreaming a better and safer way to explore dreams? Why not learn to control ur dreams instead of inviting something in that u might not be able to control?

Fascinating subject. In my years of research, I've found that many such entities from lore do have a basis in spiritualist traditions. The Dreaming Witch could be one such tulpa or thought-form, fueled by the collective belief of the culture. Engaging with such forces can have unpredictable consequences. Should you proceed, ensure to document your actions and experiences meticulously; scientific approach is paramount. Protection rituals, as mentioned by others, cannot be overstressed. I would advise extreme caution and possibly seeking out more mundane explanations for whatever you're experiencing before attributing it to the supernatural.

lol watch out, she might take your 'memories' of how to breathe or something. JK, summon away just don't call her if you end up in my territory, I don't want any competition in the nightmare business 😂

Wow, this is one of the lesser-known Slavic legends! There is a belief that speaking names holds power, particulary in invoking and banishing entities. You might be dealing with an entity that may be beyond our understanding of folklore. Bear in mind that cultures often have protective measures or rituals for a reason. Also, not sure if you're bilingual, but Slavic languages are nuanced, so pronunciation is key if you're attempting something authentic. Be cautious, research well and maybe look into protective rites before you dip your toes in these dark waters.

I've seen too many horror movies to think this is a good idea... But then again those are just movies right? 😂 But seriously, be careful with this stuff. It's all fun and games until you can't wake up from a nightmare.

the Dreaming Witch huh? sounds intriguing but tbh messing with entities like that never seems to end well. If ur gonna do it, maybe keep a dream journal or smth so u can remember what happens. stay safe!
