“I hold what I need and share what nourishes both me and others.”

Lucid Hook
Focus on the texture of the shell (grooves, weight) as you fall asleep; return to that tactile detail when you notice dream instability.
2–3 times
Note location, condition of the walnut (whole/broken), and who else is present; look for a pattern in where safety is held.
4+ times
Map recurring contexts (home, work, relationships); if walnuts repeatedly appear empty or broken, consider a ritual or conversation to address withheld needs.
