   I go through such stages as well. Unfortunately, I'm currently in a rather   
   long stage of nothing special.   
   Suddenly it will start again - most likely when I least expect it :-)

   Well, I have been closer to "the occult" than that, but I don't think it   
   makes any difference when it comes to lucid dreaming. Except perhaps for   
   coloring the content of the dream.

   It comes naturally to me. Only once did I manage a reality check within a   
   dream. If I hadn't, I might have become lucid anyway - can't know for sure
