      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I was running through the woods with Astrid, we were being chased by zombies (fast, smart zombies). It was getting dark and if we didn't find a place to stay at we would die. We saw a small town in the distance. We ran towards it, and went inside a huge house. I thought it was a mistake choosing a house with so many windows and doors. In the first floor there was manure all over the floor and it smelled bad. We wre clearing all the rooms but didn't find anything until the last one, there was a cow. The cow started mooing really loudly and I had to stab her in the head or it would attract more zombies. The zombies had reached the house now and were trying to get in. We ran upstairs and ran into a 3 zombies. We ran away from them and went inside a room each, next to each other. More zombies came in the house and started trying to open the bedrooms were we were hiding. I managed to lock my door using a belt and knew it was a matter of time before they got into the bedroom where Astrid was.

      I remembered I had my stone mask (
      I was playing Majora's Mask last night) and wondered if it would work; maybe if I wore it they wouldn't be able to see me. I put it on and opened the door. Three zombies came in and smelled around, but they couldn't see me. I stepped out the balcony and saw that there were 3 zombies waiting by Astrid's balcony door. I pushed them off the balcony into the furious sea below. A huge great white ate them as soon as they landed. I rescured Astrid and we left the house.

      I knew who was behind the zombie outbreak and where he was. He owned a huge casino in the same town. I packed my weapons and drove there. I parked my car, it was a blue civic coupe with stars painted on it. It was day time by now. I went inside the casino but noticed that security were following me. I exited through a side door and decided I needed a new plan. I was looking for my car but it was gone. I thought maybe I forgot where I parked, so I walked around but to no avail.

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I was with my parents, my brother, Gerardo and Carla (family friends), and their two kids. We were going to drive to Edmonton. We had rented a van but we still had more people than seats. Surprisingly, my dad didn't care. We got in the van and looked for the place in google maps. I remember it being close to the main UofA campus, but it was a house in the middle of a small forest.

      On the way to Edmonton we stopped at a small market. They had weird candies such as dead bees dipped in honey, roasted cockroaches, grilled cow eyes dipped in caramel, etc. I grabbed a bee dipped in honey and ate it. The lady warned me that if I bit it I would get stung but it was too late. My jaw stating hurting a lot and started cramping. A tiny ball developedin front of my ear lobes and it hurt a lot. My jaw was closing on its own so hard I thought my teeth would break.

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I was in Ft. Lauderdale with my brother. We were walking along the highway, both carrying our suitcases and Suit bags. I had brought a black suit for some reason and was regretting not bringing the blue one. We stopped in a store and bought stuff to go to the beach. On the way to the beach mom called us and we told her we'd stop at Alvaro's (my cousin) place. His apartment, a small studio, was one block away from the beach. My cousin seemed high but was very welcoming, I wondered were his Siberian Husky, Ace, was and he instantly came. His eyes were very light blue and his brown coat shined, I thought he was the most beautiful dog I had seen.

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Juan Vi and I were going on a trip with Dani, probably a rock climbing centre. We were trying to recall what our last trip together was before San Diego. We erroneously concluded it was the Orlando trip in 2012; forgetting we went to Daytona when I was in Miami last year.

    5. Lucid nap

      by

      , 07-02-2016 at 10:52 PM (Turquoise Dreams)
      7.02.16

      After few days without recall, I had another day off and a chance to morning nap for a WILD.

      Took a nap yesterday afternoon, then bed 12:30am-7:30am.

      2x300mgs Alpha GPC 7:30am
      2x4mgs Galantamine 8:30am

      Sofa 8:30 am - woke up at 12pm.

      Sleep mask, my pillows at little less steep incline so I was more laying down than normally. Normally I'm more sitting up. But didn't wan't to be disturbed with my mouth opening, I thought being more in laying position will help with that. I think it did.

      I heard my watch chime at 9 am. I was still not asleep, but was getting some images and this incredible green-yellow ocean with purple-black waves rolling over it. I get this yellow-green thing sometimes and it never ends in a lucid. So I tried not to focus on it, rather wanted to see the infinite 3D blackness behind my eyelids. I kept feeling as if I was in sensory deprivation tank. My body was so light, but when I thought about it, I did feel some contact points with my sofa. But I still felt almost floating and being disconnected from physical body. It was very pleasant.

      I finally turned to my left side, remembering how last time this turned into a lucid. As I did, I started getting some geometric HH that were blinking very fast. They were all on white field. I used to get this long time ago, this illumination as if from the backside.

      Started feeling my head buzzing in the top back part and somehoe I entered a WILD.

      I don't remember any transitions between different scenarios. All mostly just one long event, lasting about 45 min.

      1. Tried the June TOTM again. I pulled some what looked like cat hair out of my butt. Second try was even more hair, then some dried up p**p. Not very imaginative, haha.

      2. Was flying up higher and higher, thyrng not to think about how hard it is. Wanted to hitch a ride on some industrial containers that looked like luggage containers for airplanes. They were hanging on a rope being pulled on another horizontal rope. When I got closer, I heard some dangerous, large machinery sounds and I had no idea which tunnel the containers will come out of. I didn't want to get slammed by them so I left.

      3. I wanted to get laid so was looking for someone. Didn't see anybody, so I remembered how I used to climax from climbing on poles. I found me one of those and I climbed and climbed...

      4. There was more activity similar to the main theme, but don't remember any more details. I know I had some non lucids after this.

    6. Dad Is Not Safe

      by , 07-02-2016 at 09:20 PM
      I was working on [something?]My mother wanted me to help some woman clean houses in WA state.
      I could see a field near the ocean, with a series of identical 2 story brick homes facing the beach.
      My right shoulder hurt. Someone suggested selling my shoulder muscles as implants, because people did that apparently. I looked at my hand and my fingers were dirty.

      I woke up sleeping on my right side in a weird position and my shoulder hurt. Fell back to sleep after reading for a while.

      I was traveling with my mom, dad and little brother- my brother was only 5-6 years old and my parents were young. We stopped at a brick apartment/hotel. We were only supposed to be traveling for 1-2 nights so I didn’t bring a change of clothes, only a couple of different shirts. We had dropped off our things at the hotel and I was trying to barricade my dog inside so she could see out of the window but not get out or destroy anything. My dad wondered if the lady managing the apartment was trustworthy. She looked like an old boss of mine. I was at the car but decided to go back inside to grab a sweater or something. I encountered the manager opening the door to our room or the house as I was trying to, and I wondered briefly if my dad was right to suspect her, but she seemed nice so I didn’t worry too much. I think I decided to grab my dog and bring her with us.

      I briefly remember being in a car with an old schoolmate, someone I haven’t thought about much at all in many years. Weird.

      My dad was driving, it was very dark out, and he didn’t have the headlights on. I was in the backset with my brother, mom was in the passenger seat. I screamed, ‘I can’t see!’ and my dad turned on the headlights just in time for us to see he was veering off a bridge/cliff. He almost corrected it, but the back end of the car had fallen off and dangled for a moment before tipping. We were falling but we couldn’t see what was below us. I had hope it wouldn’t be far, but the longer we fell, I realized we would all probably die. I held my mom’s hand with my right hand but I could only see the hint of her blonde hair in the darkness, and I held my little brother’s with my left hand, I told them I loved them and tried to stay calm. I woke up.

      Another fragment—
      I asked my dad where my dog was. Then I saw a car parked in the middle of the road ahead of us.
      It was daylight, sunny. I saw my dog jump out of the car, wearing a red harness-type device. It was mesh and covered much of her abdomen, and one of her hind legs were stuck in it, so she couldn’t run or walk properly. I ran to save her, but she kept running from me. I finally grabbed her and my dad intervened and was rough with her, pushing her in the face. She bit in in defense, and it was bad. I felt very angry with my dad for treating my dog so violently. I yelled that she had never bitten anyone before and it was his fault. I worried he would tell and she would be quarantined or taken away from me. My dad looked upset, but stoic too. I eventually asked him he was ok. The bite was on his thumb and it looked deep.

      Thoughts:
      This all seems pretty straightforward, I didn’t feel safe with my dad. He also treated animals rather callously, although he did love them. As far as the first dream of my mom wanting me to clean houses—maybe I feel like my mom wishes I were more conventional and responsible.
    7. 2016-07-02 many scenes throughout the night

      by , 07-02-2016 at 08:23 PM
      + I'm back in B near the university, I come upon a HS friend (BeDo) and I think he won't recognize me because of my weight loss. I know that I'm not really here, or that I don't live here any more, I'm really happy to be here for a visit

      + driving on road with scenic vistas, hills over water, there is a very picturesque winding road just ahead of us, we stop for pictures in middle of road, we're blocking cars in both directions, a car is waiting ahead of us to come by in the oncoming direction. He waits a while then squeezes by on the left. Another oncoming car (red sports car?) comes by and barely squeezes by on the left. We have the emergency blinkers on, I'm nervous about having stopped here like this in the middle of the road.

      + in group of kids, sitting on floor in room, one boy has his legs painfully and firmly sticking into my groin: I move his legs, it's hard to do, they're very stiff, he complains "you're HURTING ME" then afterwards "you HURT ME" and he's very aggressive and then the group of them turns violent against me. I retreat into a bathroom because I have to pee but the sliding door does not close, I go into another bathroom and open the door to look out and they spray me with water which hits my forehead

      + in a professional-looking kitchen I appreciate the huge burner on one cooktop, the woman says "It's more of a stove" I turn on the burner and appreciate the thickness of the flame, and I compare it to our normal cooktop at home

      + I see female cousin KR and I reach my hand around her head and pull it to me and kiss the back/side of her head through her short hair. I reach to male cousin PR with massively swollen (10x at least, they're HUGE) right hand and right foot wrapped so I can't shake them, they're wrapped in tons of white gauze. He says he got poison ivy. I'm impressed with my cousins' property that they are going to the event they support each other. Later I'm walking back outside and I think my cousin PR will be impressed with my weight lifting progress: we'll have a conversation about what I'm lifting, I'll say a number, he'll say "pounds?" I'll say "no, *kilograms*!"

      +(f) something about a woman riding or skiing through water at high speed?

      + walking through the hall of a small/medium restaurant. I look at the tables, people have food in front of them. Some of them have very large stuffed dough-covered dishes that are sliced open, and the hot oozing insides are leaking out onto the plate at a constant rate without slowing down

    8. Purgatory City

      by , 07-02-2016 at 07:06 PM
      This was one of the most interesting and incredible dreams of my life.

      The city of Purgatory. Run by the jews, inhabited by those who are too fearful or decidedly unprepared to pass into the afterlife, a strange and beautiful place has been built up in what was supposed to be a brief waiting room before one goes on the final journey.

    9. Birthday

      by , 07-02-2016 at 07:03 PM
      It was my birthday and there was a series of parties, ending with us going to see a movie. We were top row so I went down to the bottom where an old lady tried to kick me out of a seat just to have power over a stranger.

    10. Video Game and a Show

      by , 07-02-2016 at 05:22 PM
      Dream Fragment 1: I was in some sort of undeveloped country. I used a computer to log on to this horror game that took place in the same area. There were these creepy figures that chased you, and multiple times I quit the game but I kept playing again.

      Dream Fragment 2: My friend was putting on some sort of show for a ton of my classmates and teachers. He pulled me in and put a bunch of makeup on my face. Then he threw me in the air. I almost landed on my head, but he caught me. Then he told me to run towards him backwards. So I did that and he threw me and I did a backflip, but I almost landed on my head again. This time I landed on a softer mat.

    11. Two completely unexpected LDs in one night!

      by , 07-02-2016 at 04:45 PM
      Wow I'm pretty amazed because the least expected thing happened to me last night. I had two lucid dreams last night! I wasn't even expecting one! I'm so happy lol So let me tell you what happened in both of my dreams last night. The first one is bit long and confusing. Hopefully you don't get bored while reading it. (I'll explain why I wasn't expecting an LD later on)

      First LD: I was at school, in my first period class, non lucid at all. I had an assignment on my desk like everyone else did so I completed it and turned it in. Before I went back to my desk, I did a reality check! I don't even know why though! Nothing weird was happening! The reality check I did was pinching my nose and breathing through it and it worked and I became lucid. I yelled at the other students that I'm dreaming, sort of rubbing it in their faces lol. So I walked out of the class room, into the hallway. (I should tell you now that my first period class is on the third floor of it's respective building) So started running down the hallway, and I jumped out the window hoping that I would fly. Although I didn't fly, I sort of floated down to the ground. While floating down I did a flip. Then I got the idea of trying to run at the speed of light. I guess I just sort of started running like normal, then I imagined myself getting lighter and lighter and it worked. I started running really fast around the school. I stopped running when I got to the old cafeteria. (There's two cafeterias at my school. The old one, and the new one.) I just sort of stood there watching people get their lunches. I wanted to see if something interesting would happen if I did nothing but it was totally normal. Then i went upstairs in the bell tower. (theres a building at my school called the bell tower and it's connected to the old cafeteria. bare with me lol) So on the second floor of the bell tower, There isn't really any walls. Just columns to hold the ceiling up, so you're able to see outside. So when I got to the second floor, I remember what Saizaphod told me about shooting lasers in lucid dreams, so I tried to shoot one by extending my arm and trying to imagine a laser coming out of my hand. Although it didn't work. I tried a second time but still nothing. So I just gave up on doing that, and realized that I should continue doing reality checks to keep the dream stabilized. So I breathed through my nose while pinching it again. Then I got the idea of trying to change the colors of objects. I heard it was a type of reality check but I thought it would be cool to do just for fun. So I saw three palm trees in the distance. One was green, and the other two were red. So I wanted to see if I could make the two red trees green. I just looked away and imagined that the two red trees turned green. When I looked back, I saw that they both went from red to green. So now I was looking at three green palm trees in the distance! So now I ran at the speed of light again back to the building where I jumped out of. I walked towards the bell tower again. Nothing crazy. Just simply walking. I wanted to see if anything interesting would happen. As I'm walking, I saw that it slowly turned into night time, and there were three kids walking behind me talking amongst themselves. I made it just outside the bell tower, but it was night time now. So I yelled "brighten" to the sky in hopes that it would turn to day time again. It didn't work and the three kids behind me asked me why I was yelling that. I turned around and told them that I was trying to make it day time. Then they started to laugh at me like I was an idiot. Getting annoyed by them, I walked up to the door the door of the bell tower, walked in, and shut it behind me, and told the dream to lock the door so these three kids won't come in. But that didn't work either. The three kids just walked right on in. At this point I wondered if I really was in a dream or not, so I pinched my nose and breathed through it again, and it worked. So I knew I was in a dream, but I was loosing control. In the bell tower, these three kids walked through another door and closed it behind them. I remember that I could change the dream scene by imagining another place and opening a door. I wanted to get away from these kids, so I imagined a museum full of paintings and mirrors. I wanted to see if I could hop into a painting or a mirror. So I opened the door, and it worked. I walked into a museum with mirrors and paintings all on the walls. However the three kids were in there joking and laughing. Now I was feeling discouraged. I didn't want to make myself look like an idiot while trying to jump into a painting in front of them, so I just walked up to different paintings and stuck my hand into them and it worked. It was pretty cool. It felt like I was putting my hand in water. I saw that my hand changed every time I dipped it into a painting to fit the style of it. Then I tried dipping my hand into a mirror. Again, it felt like I was putting my hand in water. However, my reflection did the same thing. I saw my reflections hand come out of the mirror as I put mine into the mirror. That was pretty cool. After I dipped my hand into that mirror, I saw that next to it, there was a door. It was an elevator door. I pressed the up button and I walked in and there were three men wearing suits. Then I started to loose lucidity. So the last few seconds of the dream was non lucid and we were basically standing there and waiting for the elevator to go to the next floor. Before we got to the next door, I woke up.

      Sorry about the length of the first dream. And sorry if it was confusing. My school's campus is a little hard to explain lol So after I woke up, I wrote my dream down, and I fell back to sleep again, into my next lucid dream. This one is way shorter and less complex.

      Second LD: I was in my neighborhood with my sister. I was non lucid at this point. We were both walking our dogs together. Then my sister hands me the leash to her dog, and runs away for some reason. I looked in the direction of where she ran to, and she was gone. But I did see this blue scooter driving past me on the road. However, there was no one driving the scooter. It was driving all by it's self. So I took both leashes into one hand, and with the other, I pinched my nose, and I tried breathing through it, and it worked. I couldn't believe I was back in another lucid dream. Although, I got so excited about being in another lucid dream, that I woke myself up by accident

      So that's how both lucid dreams went last night. Now here's why I wasn't expecting any lucid dreams at all. I've gotten REALLY lazy when it comes to lucid dreaming. Recently I've only been doing about one or two reality checks a day, and I don't even write down as much details in my dream journal any more. For example, when I wake up every morning, I write down notes of what happened in the dream, then I procrastinate writing down the details all day, Then at the end of the day, I just go to bed like normal without writing down the details of the dream. So even though it's really cool that I had two lucid dreams last night, I have no idea why! I've barely put any effort into lucid dreaming recently. I didn't even try any methods last night! No MILD, WILD, WBTB, nothing. (well I did wake up from my first lucid dream then fell asleep again into another lucid dream, but I did that by accident) I simply went to bed like normal. Another thing I don't understand is that recently I've only been writing down notes of my dreams right? Shouldn't my dream recall go down? I still remember every single dream I have every night in full detail.

      Anyways, those two lucid dreams were kind of a pleasant surprise! Replies would be appreciated. Also, if anyone could, please explain to me why I had two lucid dreams last night when I've put little to no effort into lucid dreaming recently lol Thanks for reading this long ass essay!

    12. Weirdness and Lightspeed Flight LD:#296

      by , 07-02-2016 at 04:44 PM (Lucid Time!)
      I remember I was sitting in a college class. A girl from one of my high-school classes was in the class and being annoying. I didn't know what the class was about and didn't care about it. Instead, I was playing Kerbal space program and landing on the moon. She came over to me and saw what I was doing and told me not to be playing games in class. I told her the professor wasn't there and we had no work to do so it was none of her business telling me what to do.

      I remember the professor came over and said that it was good that I was doing something. He was giving a lecture on philosophy and how something could be a representation of something else, and how KSP was a representation of the Apollo moon landings.

      I remember clicking to plant flag, but there was a new option for the kerbal. "Drink Space Beer". I clicked it to see what would happen and the Kerbal threw off his spacesuit and left the helmet on. I remember he had a very muscular male body but it was green since he was a kerbal. He started rolling around and got covered in moon dust. A window appears and says "Drunk kerbal has rolled around in the moon dust. This allows them to have an extra suface sample."


      ...

      I remember that I was a really good cop/detective type guy who had been captured by a criminal. He took me into an abandoned building where he had a makeshift surgery center and all this technology. He then said that he was going to rebuild me as a cyborg that was under his control and use me to fight the other police. I remember he said that the main implant would go in my stomach and he showed me a jigsaw.

      The dream cut to black, but I kept hearing my character scream, and the criminal say things. I then remembered that this wasn't a criminal cutting open my stomach and putting weird technology inside of me, but rather a movie about a criminal cutting open my stomach and putting weird technology inside of me that I was helping to film. But for that part of the movie, all I had to do was provide the screams since they got a fake dummy body with a moving mouth to do the surgery scene.

      I remember when I woke up I had all of these technology and readouts like a robot. Most of them were orange and black in color. I remember the criminal had fled because he couldn't install the implant that would control my brain without killing me because he didn't know how. I was still able to control the cybernetics. I remember running a systems check of my body and confirming that all systems, both biological and mechanical were fully functional.

      I remember bringing up a data catolouge with a google search bar. I could have any information at my fingertips just by thinking about it. But internet explorer was my built in browser. I downloaded chrome.

      "Cool, I can rewrite my own software!"

      I remember looking at some data about the planets aligning and losing that portion of the dream.


      ...

      Someone said something about me giving them a computer mouse and they could make a copy of it.


      ...

      I remember I was in my backyard, semi lucid. A girl in an orange dress with yellow prints of palm tree leaves approached me. She said her name was "Banana Pineapple Beach hat" or something. She asked me if she could get on my shoulders. Being the drooling semi lucid idiot that I was, I allowed her and started jumping. But I would jump much higher than normal as proper lucidity worked its way into my mind. When It did, I took off flying and carrying her. She didn't say anything.

      I remember I did some flying maneuvers. I had a very good awareness of how the extra weight of the DC made me have more inertia and was able to compensate. I flew close to some houses and through some tall trees in my neighborhood, and something about Manei came up. The girl I was carrying wasn't her. No energy. I then remembered the Task of the Month, to try and fly at light speed. I couldn't do it with extra weight.

      "I'm going to have to drop you off. Emphasis on the 'drop'."

      She didn't respond to me. I pulled in low over a body of water (about 15 feet above it) and got ready.

      "Are you ready?"

      Still no response. I just dropped her anyway and took off. I turned and looked up at the sky. It was cloudy and dark. I tried to imagine myself moving towards the clouds and heard myself accelerate past the speed of sound and my flying jets turn on and spool up (I don't think they were on before.) I cleared the clouds and saw a starry night sky with the band of the milky way visible. I looked back and saw the curving horizon of the earth shrink away into the whole planet. I looked back at the stars and started screaming "like I was going super sayian" I thought at the moment.

      I saw the stars begin to stretch into lines. Like when the Millennium falcon goes light speed in star wars. I saw the earth was tiny now and went away. I saw a thing that said I was going 9901c. So I guess I was going OVER NINE THOUSAND times the speed of light.

      "Man, I hope I don't hit someth- why did I let that thought enter my mind?" At that moment I hit a large planet/small star. It looked like a brown dwarf gas planet. It was actually brown in color with bands glowing red on it. I remember viewing the collision from third person and unable to stop it, seeing a tiny streak hit the planet and it exploded like the death star explodes with a shock wave. I woke up rather suddenly.


      Man, I need to get back in lucid dreaming shape. It was pretty much a fluke that I got lucid and remembered a task of the month. I take as a sign that I need to focus on this more.
    13. The Campus

      by , 07-02-2016 at 01:41 PM (Oneirin's Dreamworld)
      I'm heading down the stairs in what appears to be a two story school building. As I approach the double doors on the bottom of the stairwell, I stick my hands out to open them and begin to notice the dream feel. As I transition through the doors I tell myself I'm going to become lucid, and I become aware I''m in a dream. I notice that the room extends forward, far down a hallway. I make a sharp left and glide through the left wall of this room to head outside. I continue flying low to the ground, gliding along. I notice a light green hue over the entire scene, and a two story building on either side of me. The walkway continues down for roughly 50 meters before coming to a cross walk. I get the feeling I'm in some sort of college campus. I see a female approaching wearing black clothing in the distance, and she appears to be a student. I consider some dream goals, decide I'm not going to go purely for fun, and set out to find my dream guide. I begin moving, but am having some difficulty with movement, feeling a bit encoumbered. I remind myself it's a dream and I can simply move with my mind, but there's resistance. I glide toward the rotating glass doors that the female is approaching in order to ask her for directions to my guide. I see a small light attached to the overhang she's heading under, and try to use some telekenesis to smash it down to the ground. No luck. I don't make it to her in time, yet another couple is approaching. I have an incliniation to talk to DCs in this area to ask for my guide so I continue to approach.I follow behind them through the massive rotating glass doors, and enter the atrium of a fairly large academic building. This area has many different seats with students waiting. I notice the weight of a heavy book bag, and am appreciating the length of the dream. I decide not to think about length or stability as I feel those thoughts may collapse the scene. I take the book bag off, but become really curious as to what I'm carrying in such a heavy dream bag. I begin going through the pouches, focusing a lot of tactile sense to stay stabilized. I pull out a large GPS kit, then some running shoes, and finally smell the perfectly accurate smell of black sesame oil I had with dinner (the thought crossed my mind that I actually spilled some IRL!) I begin to open a few more small compartments, but the dream quickly fades and I wake up

    14. Seeing a Ninja on a Nighttime Walk to the Grocery Store

      by , 07-02-2016 at 01:02 PM
      Morning of July 2, 2016. Saturday.



      In my dream, my wife Zsuzsanna and family as we are now are living in an unfamiliar and unknown location. I need to go to the grocery store before it closes, as it is late at night. Even though the location is unfamiliar, I seem to somehow know where I am going when I leave our house.

      I walk mainly down a sidewalk in an area where there are no buildings. I am headed towards a bridge that is perhaps half a block long. On my right, across the street, I notice a ninja in black jump up onto the bridge railing after it seems he had come from the middle of the street ahead. At first, I had thought he might be approaching me, thus I remain wary. I am not sure if it is a teenager intent on attacking and robbing me though that feeling is not that strong as I keep walking. It may be that he has no intentions toward me. This remains unclear.

      I seem to discern another person ahead of me and in lighter clothes, but walking towards me. However, this person seems to either disappear or also cross the street to the other side. I have a vague impression he may be connected to the ninja as part of a gang. Still, nothing threatening happens. The ninja remains on the railing in a squatting position.

      There is an odd and atypical dream within a dream where I am reading about an older male from China concerning some sort of anecdote of the author’s. This occurs as I am walking but my dream goes back to the original setting after a short time.

      Eventually, I cross to the right side of the street and enter the unfamiliar grocery store. An unfamiliar and unknown Asian girl is the cashier at the one counter across from where the shelves are. There is one aisle on the other side. Even though the store seems to be closed at this point I tell her I will not be long. There is a shift, and I already have two small bags of groceries without any recall of either picking them up or paying. I then tell her, as I am heading toward the doors, that I need to get one more thing, a box of cereal.

      I find myself going to an area that is apparently in the back of the store. I notice that it is a mess, with various items strewn across the floor to my left. Otherwise, there is not that much on the shelves. I walk out back to being near the counter and ask her where the cereal is and she makes a note of it being on the other side of the main area. I notice a box of cereal (at the top of the shelf) which is Weet-Bix but mostly cinnamon flavored and consider that I will just grab that. I still do not have full recollection of paying for anything as I leave, though my dream fades from there.



      I have had other dreams where a certain part of a grocery store was messy or under construction or repair. It may relate to improper diet and the under construction aspect may relate to healing and cellular repair - or, it may just be incidental to the transient nature of the dream state. Shopping for food dreams are fairly common for me.



      A bridge typically represents a consciousness shift within the dream state. This is validated in this case by the ninja in black jumping up onto the bridge railing before I cross the bridge (though again, across the street from me yet seemingly just appearing from the middle of the street), which seems to be a less interactive form of the waking precursor. In this case, the ninja may be a curious variation of my own shadow form that has appeared in a number of dreams since early childhood, primarily in two forms, both forms implied to be my own shadow (regardless of how far away or even being of a different orientation). In the one form, it seems to be “matched” to my dream self as I test to see if it is my dream self’s shadow and in the other form, it seems to be my conscious self (doing different things than my dream self) looking into my dream and watching my dream self. However, even in the former, it seems related to a subtle awareness of conscious activity and emerging (that is, growing and clarifying) self-awareness.

      I was in some kind of tower, fighting my way up to the office of someone really important. I had many followers and we went there to fight with something evil, vandalizing whole tower on our way. We finally get there and had to fight with that important person.

      When we finished the battle, I had to run away from special forces and towers security. I sneaked through offices and got out through the back entrance, getting out of the building and entering sewers. I quickly got out of there and climbed to rooftops, then entered ducts. Suddenly someone found me and I woke up.
