Does anyone know of anything that will give you control of what you dream? Like meditation, ritual, etc? Im a baby witch who took a break from this for a year to focus on other things and I can't remember what I did before.

Here are various techniques you can try to influence your dreams, whether through meditation, rituals, or other practices. Here are a few methods you might find helpful:
Dream Journaling: Start by keeping a dream journal next to your bed. As soon as you wake up, jot down any details you remember from your dreams. This can help you become more aware of your dream patterns and themes over time.
Reality Checks: Throughout the day, perform reality checks to see if you're dreaming or awake. This can help train your brain to recognize when you're dreaming. For example, try pinching yourself or looking at the time on a clock. If reality checks become a habit during your waking life, you may start to perform them in your dreams as well, leading to lucidity.
Lucid Dreaming Techniques: Lucid dreaming is when you become aware that you're dreaming while you're still in the dream. There are several techniques you can use to induce lucid dreams, such as reality checks, setting intentions before bed, and practicing visualization exercises.
Meditation and Visualization: Before going to sleep, practice meditation or visualization exercises to relax your mind and set positive intentions for your dreams. You can visualize yourself becoming aware in a dream and exercising control over the dream environment.
Herbal Remedies: Some people find that certain herbs, such as mugwort or valerian root, can enhance dream recall and vividness. However, it's essential to research and use caution when experimenting with herbal remedies.
Dream Incubation Rituals: Create a pre-sleep ritual where you set specific intentions or goals for your dreams. This could involve repeating affirmations, performing a simple ritual, or visualizing the type of dream you want to have.
