    LD#154: once in a two moon

    I was playing with legos. Somehow or other I had legend of Korra lego figures and I had made a spaceship that all of the main characters could ride around in. I was doing that thing that you always see kids doing with Lego spaceships where they spin in circles and run around making laser gun sounds for no other reason than it could be done. I was really enjoying myself as well.

    I was playing outside at night for some reason. I believe it was summer.

    Just then I stopped. I noticed that the moon seemed to look strange.
    It seemed like there were no craters and the whole thing was just flat gray maria. My view seemed to zoom in on the moon. It came back to me, and I thought of how strange it was. Then I noticed that there was a second larger moon right next to it.

    I thought for a second about what that might mean and realized that extra celestial bodies was a common dream sign.
    I preformed the nose pinch. Dreamin', baby! I had good lucidity too.

    I looked up at the night sky. It was a clear night with no clouds. I thought about the stars for a few moments. There was a very bright one (might have been a planet) right above me.

    I realized that I might want to try and stabilize the dream, seeing as I've been losing my lucid dreams a lot this past week or so. So my first priority was to get daylight. I tried my old trick of swiping the sky like an Iphone screen, but it didn't work. I tried swiping it the other direction and it still didn't work. I tried swiping it north-south (though this makes no sense) the sun came up directly south relative to my house.

    Just then the dream started to destabilize. I laid down on the grass and grabbed onto it with both hands. "I will not lose the dream, I will not lose the dream, I will not lose the dream, I will not lose the dream, I will not lose the dream!" I began to feel like I was spinning. A golden light passed over me, and I phased through a number of blurry environments but retained the grassy bed below me.

    I got up and pulled up the grass. I put it in my mouth to try to stimulate taste or maybe hold onto the dream a little longer, but it tasted like having metal shards in my mouth. I spit it out to see that the grass was in fact a bunch of small X-acto blades.

    I looked around. I was in a perfectly flat meadow. All around me were equally sized and spaced tombstones. They were huge, about ten or twelve feet tall, and they didn't have any writing on them. And they were all on forty-five degree angles leaning toward a huge tree that the sunlight shone through. There were a couple of clouds in the sky.

    I began to feel Manei was somewhere in the dream. I felt like I should focus on her, bring her forward, but the dream was slipping quickly.

    "I want to know why the dream is so unstable!"

    I began to lose the dream again, and let it slide this time. There really was no point if it was going to fight me this hard. I did my best to hang on to staring at the huge tree.

      That's a clever title! Try rubbing your hands next time. Sometimes looking at something or touching something else isn't enough for me too. But maybe it was time for you to wake up. The harder it is to stabilize the more likely we should wake up. I've tried stabilizing the very end of a fourth dream before. Its kind of impossible I think because I've had enough sleep.xD

      Did you see RedKali's comment about brainwaves? About how the highest brainwaves are general mental chatter (waking thoughts) and what not. As you go deeper you get into deeper and more creative thinking, and that gives way to meaningful dreaming. She claims that I might be too high up and too alert, and that I might want to try receding back into deeper sleep. (The only problem is the deeper you go, the harder it is to become lucid.)

      So basically what I'm doing is racking up lucid dreams left and right by skimming the surface of sleep. It's probably what you are doing too, given that you stated that you want to focus on length and stability. This could also explain why Manei has not been appearing much as of late since she lies more in the 'meaningful dream' category.

      So the difficult part is to hit that sweet spot between not too awake to just wake up, and not too asleep to be nonlucid or simply forget your dream.
