    Ok, i haven't journaled in here for a while because i've not had many Lucid's lately, a few here and there but not very many. Mostly due to lack of sleep and being overworked but anyway here's the Lucid i had last night that blew my mind.



    I began the dream sort of floating through a very colorful nebula in space. I started to notice a large black dot in the nebula and i thought that surely this wasn't a planet in side of a nebula and started to question things in my mind, one being if i'm dreaming. After a glance at the brightest star (which always seemed to be behind me)I became fully Lucid, probably the most lucid i've been in a very long time. I spoke aloud "I am Dreaming, Increase vividness, I am in full control" and the "Universe and all the stars and space debris and solar winds and everything answered my commands by attaining an increase in sharpness and contrast and clarity. I then focused on the planet in the nebula. It was small, probably 5/8 the size of earth. I flew down to it and landed on it. The surface was a grey color with whites and dark browns. I noticed it had some small hills around me and nothing larger than a couple large plateaus, no mountains. I declared "This is a new world and i will it into existence!" i closed my eyes and felt a powerful wind sweep around me, and then accompanying the wind i felt the ground get extremely hot under my feet, and i opened my eyes and i was standing in a valley that had been shaped with hills to the sides, i could a waterless riverbed running through it ending in a large lake bed. I looked up into the sky and raised my hands and began slowly closing my hands, the more i closed them the harder it became, i noticed that small wisps of clouds began to form in the sky and they slowly gained in size and the sky went from a clear night sky to a blue and purple tinged sky but you could still see the nebula through it. The cloud wisps turned into cumulus and stratus clouds. The cumulus clouds began to turn grey and my hands finally clenched tightly closed. I opened my hands quickly and as they did so did the clouds release rain onto the land. I lowered my arms and a grin crept across my face, i was creating a planet and giving it life. I then laid down to rest, the ground was wet and muddy but it was soft and now malleable. I laid there on my back looking up into the sky and saw that there were three bright stars in the nebula that gave the planet it's light and the nebula itself was visible through the sky. I laid there and waited for night to come, i watched the river fill with water and then begin to fill the lake. In the sky you could see this large "Dust and debris" cloud move in front of the stars which gave a "lighter" version of night to the planet. The material was debris orbiting the small planet. By the time the debris had moved away from the sky the river was filled with water and the lake was a beautiful color teal. I looked at the ground i was laying on and noticed small blades of grass growing in patches in an outwards direction from where i lay. I touched a single blade and it grew into a flower, and budded right before my eyes. I smiled and looked up to see the entire area was covered in grass, and flowers with different types of flowering trees here and there. I stood and walked over to the lake and saw small, very tiny creatures swimming in the water. I knew these would some day be fish and there would be other animals amongst the trees and grass of the ground. I tilted my head down and saw a pile of dust at my feet. I grab a handful and let it sift through my fingers, as it flowed through the wind it began to come together and create a female like humanoid. The skin was grey and cracked like the ground and she didn't seem "real" she looked just like what she was, a pile of dust, a statue made from it. I thought to myself of the things man had done to earth, and how much more wonderful earth could've been without man, and a tear ran down my cheek for this thing, but i knew it would do the same here, so i leaned in and blew on "her" cheek and the dust slowly blew away into the wind and settle amongst the grass. I knew the planet could sustain itself now and decided i needed not stay so i shot my eyes to the sky and with a thought i shot into space and away from the planet and into the the darkness of space.

    I awoke pretty ecstatic about that dream, and jotted down as much as could come to my mind.

      wow, very interesting. i've been reading a book called 'Lucid dreaming' by Robert Waggoner, and he talks about how we can reach into sort of a collective unconsciousness; i know this may be far fetched to some people, but what if our planet was created in the beginning from consciousness, just like you felt in your lucid dream.
      " I lowered my arms and a grin crept across my face, i was creating a planet and giving it life"

      i don't think it's impossible to believe that our world could have started in a similar way hope you have many more lucid dreams to come.
      Another interesting thing to think about is the 'expectation effect' as Robert Waggoner meantioned in his book, basically it states that lucid dreams sometimes tend to bend and mold to the lucid dreamers expectations.. and it's abstract to think about how you could have expected this world to exist, and how the situation even came across your unconsciousness...If you could gaid lucidity again, it would be fun to experiment with asking to 'unexpected unconsciousness' to show you planets with other lifeforms...if they exist

      considering the fact that no one can answer this question: "what came before that?" i think this idea of everything being created from consciousness is very plausible... but then you could say "what came before there was consciousness? where did consciousness come from?" it never ends! no matter how far science advances with all the amazing theories on the origin of the universe we are stuck with that question. scientists: "there's the big bang." me:"so before that?" s:"well blah blah blah theory." m:"and before that?"s:" ummm... more blah blah?" m:"and before that?" s:"blah?" lol! it's infinite. and until our consciousnesses expand beyond the incomprehensible idea of "infinity" it will always be out of reach. gah! that's the problem! infinity can't exist within the confines of our minds! there must always be a beginning and an end, something "going on forever" doesn't technically work as it must be "going" from something and "going" toward something else which creates a beginning and an end and defuncts itself.

      wow i went on a totally random rant! lol!

      wow, that's a seriously impressive dream! i don't know if i've ever had one so deep! really impressive! and i thought it was something when i learned how to "possess" other dream characters bodies! you're creating planets and humanoids!!!

      Wow this was amazing... I almost cried when you said "I thought to myself of the things man had done to earth, and how much more wonderful earth could've been without man, and a tear ran down my cheek for this thing, but i knew it would do the same here, so i leaned in and blew on "her" cheek and the dust slowly blew away into the wind and settle amongst the grass.

This was very interesting to read and I'm glad you shared your experience with all of us. I hope to see more amazing dreams like this in the future.

      It was cool but a little too much hippie. The earth is fine, don't cry, you could be starving and not have shelter for the night if man had a brain like every other animal or hippie.
