Is it a good idea to establish an intent for dreaming or is it more beneficial to allow dreams to be what they are without any form of pre-set intention?
Here's what my experience has shown me. If, for example I state as my intent that I want to meet with the dreamers of Parallel Perception at a mountain location, I have found it may actually inhibit my dreaming.
My dreaming may want to tell me something entirely different than my mountain meeting scenario, and I may be acting in opposition to my energetic dynamics.
I have found my strongest dreaming comes when I welcome whatever dreams may come. Then, once I am dreaming, I have established what may be called a secondary intent.
My primary intent is to welcome whatever dreams may come. My secondary intent is to become lucid and find my hands.
Then, once I become lucid, I call on my dream guide, which in my case is the Goddess.
I would then ask the Goddess to guide me to a meeting at the beach with the members of the Ravens.
