    False Awakening

    1. Advanced TotM (one fail and one success, I think)

      by , 06-21-2017 at 04:54 AM
      So, after reading a little bit about lucid dreaming and going 'back to bed', I soon found myself in a familiar state. I was lying in my bed listening to a Podcast... but realized that whatever Podcast I was listening to, obviously wasn't real. I was lucid.

      I induced what I call the vibrational state and slowly separated from my body OBE-style. My sense of touch came before the visuals. I found myself in a replica of the house I was sleeping in, and quickly I set out to do the tasks. It wasn't a particularly vivid lucid. But, for some reason, the laws of physics were on point (in a lucid that I was supposed to change myself in the mirror).

      Looking at myself in the living room mirror, I tried hard to put some abs and more muscle in my body or something like that. But nothing. After trying hard, the only thing I managed to do was: make myself more tanned. (and even that, took me some mental acrobatics).

      I thought that, maybe, if I went to another, less familiar house, it might be easier to change my appearance I flew to some house in my neighborhood (that, for some reason, was near the beach now). I tried to do the same thing in the mirror of this imaginary house. But, as I was taking off my shirt, just at the moment when the t-shirt covered my vision, I lost visuals and woke up...


      PS: After flying to the second house and attempting once more the advanced task #1, I looked up at the sky to see if I could attempt advanced task #2, but it was cloudy and no stars where to be seen... I thought about clearing up the sky and attempting the task... but, I thought: "yeah, if I couldn't give myself abs, I'm not clearing up this sky and making stars fall unto Earth anytime soon." Lol, so I didn't even attempt to do it.

      All in all, I had fun.

      Basic task 2
      Advanced task 1


      Back in bed after a WBTB, I got to induce a lucid via DEILD. Or at least what I thought was a DEILD... Turns out I never actually woke up. I had a massive false awakening in which the TV was turned on in my room and everything; the trippiest FA I've had in a while. After the "TV" woke me up (everything being a hallucination), I decided to induce a lucid via focusing in the hypnagogic imagery.

      A funny thing that happened is that, while I was trying to detach OBE style, I slowly rolled out of bed and fell. Again, just a hallucination. But, while in that state, I wasn't sure if I actually fell or not. Either way, I eventually completely detached and didn't think too much about anything except the tasks that I was set out to do.

      "Out of body" in my grandma’s house, and before going outside to do the tasks, I jumped around and did stupid things like a child for a little bit as the euphoria that comes with being lucid poured over me.

      After calming myself down, I went out looking for a dream character, hoping to find a female one (here it goes). It was dark out, as in early morning. Surprisingly fast, I saw the faint shape of a female dream character by the neighbor's house. All I could see was that she was tall and had dark hair. As I approached her, I willingly tried to make her shape appear "hotter."

      When I was close enough, as to see her clearly, I notice that she is girl a I used to know from high school. That was completely random, as I didn't even think about her (or any specific girl for that matter). But she was indeed good looking, so I permitted my libido to take over for a few seconds while maintaining a high level of awareness, as to not let blind desire completely consume me and to loose my lucidity as a result.

      When that was taken care of, I asked the girl to be my assistant for todays task and she kindly agreed without using any words (at least of the Verbal kind).
      I asked another dream character that was in sight where I could find a microscope and she pointed to a specific house close by.

      I was hoping for the house to be an awesome crazy scientist's place but it wasn't and there weren’t any microscopes to be seen. I really wanted to complete the task so I acquired a bunch of junk (including an empty glass of water, Energizer batteries, and a magnifying glass), jumbled them up together in my hands, really hoping to magically create the microscope.

      A part of me doubted my success, but I did it! I created a weird looking little microscope. Maybe the female DC beside me increased my performance. Anyway, I looked through the microscope to see something already in close up. It was something similar to what I saw in my BIOL class (chloroplasts). I decided to keep zooming in, not touching anything in the microscope, just using my will.

      I zoomed in and in and in, until I found myself looking at what I can only describe as a "dance of energy." A bunch of floating, dancing and hypnotizing atoms, or quarks. Whatever it was that I was seeing, it was very colorful.


      I wanted to show this thing to my DC assistant, but before I knew it, I lost myself in the now almost psychedelic "dance of energy" and off I went into non-lucidity (until I woke up, not long afterwards).
    3. Mon, Sep 22, 2014 / LUCID / Completed advanced tasks of the month

      This dream felt awesome because I was experiencing kind of a dry spell for a week.

      Gaining Lucidity

      I found myself sitting in my bunk bed at my dad's house, my sister was chilling beside me. I was feeling kinda disappointed because I thought I had failed the MILD I had attempted and also because I've been having poor dream recall.

      But the I founded absurd that my sister was there, considering that a lot of times she is an actual dream sign. I did a RC, the one of looking and then looking away at the time, using my iPhone... And just like that... LUCID! Thank you.

      I get out of bed, go through the door, and went directly to the balcony (of a 4 story apt) and I start flying around. I felt completely euphoric and the flight just felt so authentic, the wind, that feeling you get in your belly from jumping from high places and stuff. Really cool.

      Advanced task of the month i

      I remembered about the task and found myself again at my house (I later found out that I was at my mom's house this time, not my dad's) , I grabbed the first thing I found, which happened to be a broom, and used it as a wand. EPECTRO PATRONUM... and by a christmas tree that my mom has hidden somewhere, an OWL appears, a little one with a big head and big eyes!!! It looked awesome, and I felt like a wizzard or something lol

      The owl looked something like this:

      Advanced task of the month ii

      Then I grabbed the broom I used as a wand, went through the front door (my mom's place is a 1 story house) and started flying like a witch... I was flying around town and remembered task ii, I did the first one, why not do the second one?

      I see a basketball court beneath me, and close to it I see some houses! Just beneath me is an old, poor and abandoned house, I didn't go there because it probably didn't even have a toilet, plus I wanted it to have some people inside (specially some girls )

      I land in front of a house, the door was opened and just by it I see a two-headed dog just standing there looking at me (probably the craziest and sketchiest thing I've ever seen).

      I enter the house and I see a woman in like her 50's but looks kinda like a junkie or something like that. I see a bathroom prepared with two toilets to choose from.

      Super mellow I start getting inside one of the toilets, a dark grey , square, retro looking toilet.

      I get in and feel the cold water in my back. I flush and I feel myself doing a 360 degree turn very slowly, and getting wetter, and then everything goes dark. I stayed in that dark, wet place for a bit and then got out feeling accomplished.


      Having fun

      Then I get out of the bathroom an look myself at a mirror for a long time, it just felt so real, I couldn't find one thing that wasn't as authentic as in real life. It is just so cool to look at yourself in a mirror within a dream...

      I then headed out of the house, saw the old lady again and then saw some hot girls about my age, going in and out of the house talking to the lady and to some friends outside. I go where they are and then start having some fun with the hottest one, she at first started saying "noo" and giggling and that kind of stuff that girls do, but then I went like "this is my dream" and had some good old "fun" with her... the whole time I was having "fun" a guy friend of hers was talking to her, trying to get her attention and messing with me, but I ignored him.

      Then I got out of there and found my mom's house again, I find my skateboard and started doing some tricks, it feels awesome to skate in dreams, I felt completely invincible and euphoric. I did some tricks inside my house and then I did a huge "kickflip" through the closed front door and over a long three set of stairs, landing super clean, it felt awesome.


      Then I did some other stuff but gradually started losing lucidity, going from fully lucid to the point I started interacting with dream figures, as I was with real people, but woke up with fresh memory of the dream.

    4. My First Lucid Dream Ever/ First False Awakenings

      by , 09-21-2014 at 03:50 PM
      First Lucid
      This is the first ever lucid dream that I remember having, I was about 15 or 16 years old and didn't know anything about lucid dreaming.

      I was walking around my grandma's house and something felt weird to me... I wondered what it was and then it came to my mind, "is this a dream?" Then I realized the absurdity of my question and instantly replied, "well of course not, I am controlling what I'm doing...". I thought, "wow I must be really high or something then..."

      Then I looked myself in the living room's mirror and realized it was indeed a dream, "this is a dream!" and then out of nowhere my face turned into the face of a cat and I woke up instantly startled.

      First False Awakenings
      I remember I got tons of this while I was at school all the way to high school. A lot of time when I was supposed to wake up, I stayed in bed for a few more minutes because I am lazy... Then finally I wake up to put on my uniform and all that... then later realizing that I haven't woken up at all. I got a lot of this and I was always fascinated by this phenomenon.
