CakePHP using Session outside of the function

I have a piece of code that is responsible for the pagination in my controllers:

var $paginate = array(
            'limit' => 5,
            'conditions' => array('Tanque.user_id' => 1),
            'order' => array(
            'Tanque.nome' => 'asc'
        )
    );

So, where I have 'Tanque.user_id' => 1, I would like to use the user_id instead of the number 1. I am getting the user_id from the Session $this->Session->read('Auth.User.id'), but I get an error.

How can I use the $this->Session->read outside of the functions?

You cannot use expressions in class declarations, you can only use static values. Not to mention that all the components aren't even loaded at this stage. Do this in a function, like beforeFilter:

public function beforeFilter() {
    $this->paginate['conditions']['Tanque.user_id'] = $this->Auth->user('id');
    parent::beforeFilter();
}
