    1. 2 Succubus

      by , 09-24-2016 at 08:53 PM (Cities in the Astral)
      I was involved in a long series of lucids with FAs over and over. It was getting confusing. Finally I was stuck in bed with two witch like demons sitting on me. It reminded me of the stuff mentioned in sleep paralysis. They were nude but hideous and they cackled about how they had captured me. I relaxed and did not let fear take hold. I knew this was a dream. I transformed them into sexy naked women and fondeled one. They got mad and transformed back. I just kept changing them into attractive compliant partners Until I was out from under them. They transformed into objects after that.

    2. 2016-09-24 LUCIDD 205 paralyzed FA; light/closet; robbery; meet with female CEO; guitar; thief

      + LD#205 LUCIDD 205 paralyzed FA: A scene forms before my eyes and I'm lying in bed looking at the ceiling and walls of my bedroom. Initially my focus is centered on the light fixtur and I look at it until it comes into clear focus. I notice the central light fixture is wrong, the walls are the wrong color, and the wrong texture. The texture is sort of made from 1-inch wide thin long bands/braids I get lucid (maybe doing nose pinch), but I find I can't move. The visuals are stable. I struggle a bit to get up, finding I can't move, and when I start to be able to move (my waking body?) the visuals fade but I remain lucid. I relax and focus on my vision again and the light fixture fades back in again and visuals have returned. The texture on the ceiling/walls has changed to a repeating square pattern including a small bump that sticks out from the surface. I work on moving the blanket off of me in order to get up, while holding my focus on the light fixture to keep things stable, but moving is hard and I can barely make progress to get up. I hear someone doing something on my left in the clothing cabinet [maybe waking sound, not sure] , visuals fade and I'm awake.

    3. Work it out

      by , 09-24-2016 at 11:56 AM
      D1 - In a building from a previous dream (not WL) it has two floors, all paintwork and fixtures are white. The building is cube shaped with a central open (mezzanine) area.
      I am worried as I am supposed to be teaching but don't know where my class is. I should know but have to check the timetable outside the staff room to try and find out (This reminds me of previosuly when my timetable would always be changing). The headteacher is giving me glances, I pretend all is ok. Ed helps me look at the info. but its no good.
      I wander around looking for the class and eventually find them.

      D2 - In an ancient village, Very large luminescent symbols appear. They change colour. We are trying to get the right colourc combination (apparently). This will help us achieve something.
      A man is supposed to have taken the correct combination for me to a village elder but for some mysterious reason he was late. He put it into the elders hand just as the time elapsed. So I didn't get anything.
      I am pondering as to why he was late.
      In my mind's eye I see the large patch that he was handing to the elder.

      D3 - Children are doing some art. when I go to look at a child's work they have painted a concentric pattern of butterfly wings, tear drops onto a shell that should have been a snail pattern.

    4. 5 dreams tonight!

      by , 09-24-2016 at 10:47 AM
      All non lucid.

      Dream: I was living in Zuid Holland, in a flat. There was an artist on my floor who was capable to transform everything in something beautiful. He was a hold and very kind man. I gave him a guitar as a present and he delighted me with very beautiful melodies.

      Dream: same province. I was at a the sea and with my heart surprise my parents were there (they live in Italy) and my father was landscaping the sea. Exactly. He was a matter landscaper. A little bit as if he was lucid dreaming and I just one of his dream characters.

      Dream: still in the same province. Real life background: a friend of mine has a new girlfriend. In the dream he gave previously the number of the girl to another friend who tried to seduce her, failing miserably. The guy was explaining to me the story, that i actually anyway knew and I was feeling very bad for him. The girlfriend in the dream is not the same girl of the real life: she's actually a friend of him who he found beautiful and interesting but she had already a relationship.

      Dream: this one is in Italy. My grandma (who died three years ago) was living in the house of the sister of a friend of mine. Talking with the girl, she said that my girlfriend and I could have the house as soon my grandma would die. I was explaining her in that case my girlfriend was going to totally transform the house as she is a real perfectionist. Apart this last consideration, all the rest didn't make any sense, but I explored the house that was fully furnished and decorated with old fashioned Italian style furniture and with very realistic damages typical of an old house.

      Dream: somewhere in Netherlands, presumably Zuid Holland. My girlfriend and I enrolled in a 5km run competition. Our outfit was clearly inadequate: jeans and non running shoes. Because of this fact I went back home to pickup the running shoes (still with jeans though). As soon as we approach the starting line unfortunately the race started so I didn't have time to wear the running shoes and we started to run with a lot of struggles with me having the running shoes in one hand and a small mattress in the other (? This is unexplainable). At a certain point I wanted to stop by a bar and have a coffee (my girlfriend had an ice cream). I didn't have money with me and the owner was very angry. Eventually a cousin of my gf paid for us but was very upset. that cousin didn't exist in real life. we went then back to the run, being obviously the absolutely last ones.

    5. Listened to the audio from an episode of X Files while Lucid.

      by , 09-24-2016 at 09:39 AM
      So, outside of the dream, I should clarify that I was taking a nap while my dad watched X-Files on Netflix in the other room, and I could hear the audio in my room.

      Anyhow, the dream started with me as Ant- Man and I was breaking into a building by sneaking in through a sink, and then a doctor was trying to grab me in the sink, and I'm moving around in the sink, the inside of which looks like a smaller model of the bathroom. I then exit through a side drain and enter another room, which looks like a small office, and then the dream shifts to me being outside and I am talking about the job I just did.

      I then find myself in my house, and I can hear the audio of the episode of Xfiles my dad is watching, for reference it's the episode "Elegy," the audio from which I could clearly hear and make out in the dream while I was walking around my house in the dream. I had never seen the episode before so that proves that I really was hearing the audio from the episode in the dream since I was able to recall lines from the episode. Anyhow, hearing the audio I realize that I am dreaming and I go to the back room of my house where there is a large window with a view, it's become a habbit for me to look out this window when I go lucid because I usually see these amazing landscapes. As I approached the window, I could see green and I realized that the landscape was really neat this time. I look out and I see the city, but it's surrounded by a massive forest of redwood trees. I look around and the city is filled with these giant trees. I'm really impressed with how detailed it really is, and I leave the room to go to my dad's bedroom where I see him laying down watching a screen floating in midair, but I can still hear the episode of Xfiles playing and in the dream he's watching a completely different show. I concentrate at this point and can clearly hear the audio from the episode, which makes me want to listen to podcasts and whatnot more often when I sleep.

      I then leave my house, and see a vacuum cleaner outside. I grab on to the handle, and find that I can ride it like a scooter as it propels me forward. I decide to explore more of my dream on this extremely fast vacuum cleaner, and I visit my middle school. It's around this point I wake up from my nap.

      I was with my younger sister, going to a house of her friend. We entered it - it was a modern furnished three storey building. I didn't wanted to stay with them, but sister really wanted me to stay.
    7. July 30th 2016 Spacecraft, Astronaut Lucid, Sivason and Daniel Love Experiments

      by , 09-24-2016 at 07:48 AM

      Catching up on my DV dream journals, posting one LD for now instead of getting hampered trying to do one huge post compiling everything up to date.

      Sat, 30 Jul 2016:

      ~~!! Late a.m. !! Using GF incubation MILD, what I'd do got my mind thinking dreamy possibilities: Another later morning success around 7am!~~

      There is this 2 part flying spaceship-like craft, I realize after first thinking it was two separate ships, one smaller with 2 pilots and a large one with many crew and passengers perhaps. The smaller part is trying to pilot the craft out of danger and I'm down below on a platform in a giant rectangular water reservoir of some kind like an enormous swimming pool. Someone is flooding it with a ton of water all of the sudden and my platform is being swung around wildly in the water. I call up to the people in the ship what is being done and that's when I see it is 2 parts connected and I see lots of crew/people in the larger section below the smaller section. The platform I'm on is pushed against a rocky wall with vines hanging down and I start thinking I should climb out and then get the more dreamy idea that it will be easy, and then heck I can just fly up out of here. I climb with ease and then fly andI am very joyful I have been liberated from a dire situation into a lucid dream!!! I am just away from the edge and don't hesitate to jump out over the turbulent pool and think about how wow I'm really sure I can fly over it and not fall in and then I suppress some emerging doubt (Sivason's lesson: http://www.dreamviews.com/dream-yoga/139475-advanced-skill-1-suppressing-emerging-thoughts.html ) that could drop me down and make me lose lucidity, and I move on with confidence! I fly up to a few smaller buildings and then up to a larger building to see what's going on inside. Nothing interesting to see really. I start to get a few dreamscene fades where the whole scene is dropping out but I use the seeding ideas based on Sivason's but the opposite effect, flowering them instead of suppressing them - there is a time for each... and the ideas from Daniel Love about seeing patterns in things and I stabilized. I am getting very good at bringing back the same building or a building that looks a lot like the building that just faded away. I'm thinking about this while I do it and I am amazed at how well it is working and how clear my thinking is. Perhaps this is one benefit to late morning when you are closer to getting up for the day your head is more clear but the dreams tend to be more wispy so we need to incubate them and to feed them and keep them going with seeds of thoughts like "oh that didn't fade I see a tree emerging I see it for me…here!" and "that pattern over there even if that pattern is not there yet I create it and it grows." Before long my scene is stabilized. I am floating down a residential street with large 2 and 3 story properties and I see an old guy walking and I have a slight thought regarding messing around with him in some way but I decided instead to talk to him and see if he seems like an intelligent DC. I greet him and he says his name something like John Clare. I asked him what he represents and even think as I'm saying it in the dream, I think to myself that the question is not very clear if you're trying to ask something about your subconscious. The answer was he was an astronaut. I think about the astronaut reference recently in waking life and figure that's where this answer must have come from. It was an astronaut speaking on TV. I look up at this large two-story apartment house it seems it has a fairly large flame and smoke coming out the back right corner. I think I can be a hero in my dream and I fly down to see what's going on. The room next to it and the one before it look completely unfazed and I knock on the windows and tell the occupants there's a fire in the next room and I start heading down toward the fire. When I get to the window with the fire I can't see anything so I fly down to the entrance and go in the house and tell the mother of the house that they have a fire up in one of the rooms and I flew up their staircase and up to the room and lead a few other younger folks out from upstairs and down. The mother comes up and I see a tampon pad and say someone must have lit it but it looks like it's under control now. The mother says some of these birds were already here. We all head downstairs and as I'm about to leave I tell her "sure you can show your appreciation
      Spoiler for sexual content:
      There is another beauty across the way and she gets my attention. The mother, good looking in a "girl next door" kind of way starts
      Spoiler for sexual content:
      as if to bring my thoughts back to her. I tell the other one she can jump on, in a moment, but the scene starts fading and I seed the thought that she has walked over to me and hopped on and I can feel it a bit
      before I fade completely back to bed smiling big!


      The day after I noted in my dream journal: "Try heavy visualization and incubation again for late morning chance…"

      As usual, once I recognise a dream sign it won't come back! No more cats tonight. Had lots of long dreams tonight, started keeping my dream diary by the bed but even so the dreams fade before I can write them down.

      1) In a house. Lots had happened but can't remember most of it. I was talking to John Lennon, I was packing up my bag to go home it was an important night something like New Year's Eve but I didn't want to celebrate. I was explaining to him that sometimes it's good to be on your own and that's OK. I walked out of the front door a white taxi was waiting for me, and there was another taxi waiting for someone else as well.

      2) This was a complex dream but I can only remember certain details. There was a large medieval catapult sitting in a room and someone was loading something into it. I think I asked if I could go in it. Somehow then I was in a street I think I was with my children, there was lots going on it was a bit like a disney world street. I wa told to go into a building, I asked why and was told that I would find out. I was in the building then and I was rushing to pack up all my belongings into a box (it was just like a freezer box), my wife and children appeared through a curtain across a window and somehow I knew they had travelled back in time to get me and I asked if that was why they had told me to go to the building, they said yes.

      3) I was outside carrying washing and dirty plates. I had to climb up onto a road through a fence. I was at my old school. The headmaster's wife came out and was taking something to a house at the front of the school. I offered to take it for her and said I would leave what I was carrying here, she said I couldn't do that and just piled up more dirty plates into my hands, she wasn't very nice. I walked to the front of the school carrying everythign trying not to drop it and walked into the school. My practice manager from work put his head out and mentionned that he was buying some netting for the fruit cage and not to tell anyone because I was paying for it (I presumed he meant it would get damaged becasue people would be jealous). I tried to walk out of the end of a corridor but the end was blocked and I remembered I had to walk around. I went out and found the house I was supposed to get to. The front door was across a big drop with white walls, I jumped across. The front door was covered in overgrowth which I pushed aside, I found the door bell and rang it.

    9. Policeman Jack & Zombies

      by , 09-24-2016 at 05:55 AM
      False Awakening
      Lucid
      Non-Lucid

      Sometimes I can't recall the actual order of the dream because it all feels the same. Anyway. I'll tell it in the way that makes the most sense. Jack always wears blue and black, though this time he also had a grey vest. He appears in uniform, police or military. He has dark hair and pale skin. He's always my friend but is sometimes more.
      I wake up in my house but it feels strange. I can't figure out why exactly but I know I don't like it. It's like having a word on the tip of your tongue. Anyway, I get out of bed and I wander down the hallway. I glance over my shoulder and it's only when I realize the master bedroom is swapped with the other bedroom that I know I'm dreaming. There's a subdued sense of relief and I make my way to the front door. Instead of being on the east wall it's on the north end, and it feels so damn familiar. I know I've been here before. I push the front door open and frigid winter air greets me. I'm delighted when I find it's snowing. I can feel the air and the sharp bite of the snowflakes melting on my cheeks. There's a white crosshatch gate. I open it and climb out onto a massive snowdrift, laughing and spinning in a circle. My neighbor crosses the lawn and I wave. He gives me a small smile and ducks his head against the icy wind. This does nothing to dampen enthusiasm and I throw handfuls of snow into the air in wild exultation.

      Suddenly I am back in bed. I experience a moment of vertigo as I sit up. It's only when I realize that the two bedrooms of my apartment have switched places that I know I'm dreaming. Still, it is a distant realization. I move toward one of the two closets and look inside, there is an old washer and dryer set in there. I back out and see Jack there. I should be clear though, I only know it's Jack in retrospect. I have been doing this a lot lately. Depression makes me indistinct and so my recurring dcs are indistinct. I know him because he is wearing blue and black, as Jack always does, and because he feels the same way. He's the right build, though I never see his face.
      I recognize him, standing in front of the other closet. He is mine.
      He shows me the new washer and dryer set in the second closet, though I have already seen it. It's like a game. I turn to kiss him and get an impression of pale skin and black hair, also very much Jack.


      There's a lapse. A very stark lapse. I'm in a dim hospital. Jack was a police officer who was killed on duty. All of his friends gather in vigil around the room containing his body bag. I can't quite believe he's dead and I wander away from the sober scene, all those uniforms gathered in chairs around the room. That is the only reason I survive.

      The hospital is so very still in the late hours of the night. Dim. Quiet. The recently dead become quick, nimble zombies pouring down the hallways in waves. I hear them before I see them and have a moment of intense annoyance and disbelief. Of fucking COURSE there are zombies. Why the fuck not.
      I run away. I realize I'm barefoot. I can feel the doors under my hands as I push them open, and the rush of night air that greets me. And the sound of the undead pouring out in my wake. I almost lose my lucidity and think I have to find MY car. Then I think "No, you're lucid. ANY car will work. PICK ANY CAR." I don't get to find out if that is true. I run for a car, the zombies coursing around me like I'm a wide river stone. I pull a car door open---


      My vision...fluctuates. I try to focus. It's hard to say how I do it. It feels like I'm looking up, like I'm willing my eyes to close? I find myself in a motorcycle shop with a familiar blond, bearded man in a leather vest. I immediately start to cry. "Where am I?" I ask him. "How did I get here?"
      I move around the counter as I ask these questions, my eyes straying to the tv mounted on the wall behind him. I ask but I already know that he saved me from the onrush of zombies. He asks me if I've seen a certain documentary, or heard of a series of experiments. I know of it in a distant way, but it still feels like I'm lying when I say I've seen it and he seems to know it is a lie. He explains that the undead are everywhere and they managed to pull me here, though it is unclear if I will turn.

    10. Gone is my dog

      by , 09-24-2016 at 02:57 AM
      A family moved into a house that I thought my family some how owned. In reality it didn't resemble any home or any people I know, lol. Someone had died & the family was pillaging the enormous estate & house of all of it's goods. I thought they had my dog. I told them I had given them my dog because I could no longer care for them. I even asked Mike if I could get my dog back. He said we are in a good place now & Meesha & him would get along. I went & looked for my dogs pedigree papers & was distracted & looked up.There were suddenly these balconies & I was standing in what looked like a theater. In the balconies were people w/ the same kinds of dogs as mine was. It looked like they were waiting for their turns in some sort of dog show. I then new I was dreaming & became lucid. I was overwhelmed w/ the reality that my dog had died many years ago & I just wanted to wake up. I looked at the dog they had there & realized it wasn't him. Then I woke up.

      This was one of those dreams that wake you up out of sadness. But I reminded myself that once I leave this life I will get to see him again so all will be okay.

    11. Greatest Joy; Dream Zooming

      by , 09-24-2016 at 12:50 AM (Oneirin's Dreamworld)
      1. I'm in the living room on M street, and sit down on the couch. I think that I haven't had an LD in a while, so I decide to close my eyes and fall aleep as a family member is working on a computer across the room. I begin drifting to sleep in the dream thinking about lucid dreaming. I find myself in another building walking down a corridor and through a door. As I pass through the doorway, my awareness raises and I realize I'm in a dream. I begin flying at rapid speed speed down various corridors and into different rooms. I finally enter a slightly larger room with a stage and some people sitting on stools at tables eating dinner. It resmebles some type of lounge with a live band. I remember back to a dream goal I had wanted to test out, and decide to call out to the dream: "What is my greatest joy?". I await a response, but nothing comes for quite a bit. I decide to wait it out. I'm really interested in a response, but feeling let down by the dream narration when a sudden answer comes. In a ridiculous voice sounding like Kermit The Frog, the awareness behind the dream call out to me in a rapid, sarcastic tone: "...Mac and Cheese...". my lucidty breaks for a short period.
      *Later on I ended up waking up for a WBTB and was laughing my ass off from this

      I end up back in the living room in M street by the couch. I tell myself that instead of getting up I'm going to sit and go to sleep to have more lucid dreams. I think - without lucidity - that the previous experience was awesome. I sit and close my eyes.

      2. I find myself walking down a corridor once again and suddenly realize I'm in a dream. I begin moving through the corridors at a incredibly fast pace in increments, like 'zooming' through all the scenes. I think back to a post in which Zoth posted a video describing this tech. I have good control over the super quick movements, and am blasting my way through all the corridors in the dreamscape. I notice that I can start a mental command similar to a woosh which reverberates into the scene which helps with the zooming. I combine this with quick intermittent movement of my legs and arms, as though sprinting in very short intervals. I once again enter the room from the previous lucid and appraoch the people eating dinner from their high circular tables by the stage. I see that they're eating chicken legs. I'm feeling super hungry, and decide to eat some. I begin eating one quickly and it tastes and feels incredibly vivid; the texture and taste are about 90% similar to waking life. I gnaw on the end of the bone and actually feel the end of the bone crunch and taste it. My front two teeth become very sensitive, and I actually feel discomfort on my teet from it. I decide to stop using dream time in this area, and leave the couples after the second table. I head out of the room and zip down another corridor practicing the dream zooming tech. After a couple corridors,
      I wake up - in a non-lucid dream - in M street on the couch. I decide to get to writing the dreams down right away in order to not forget them; I feel that they were awesome. I head into the next room and begin to tell family members that I just had a few lucid dreams.

      *First LD of night forgotten upon waking.
