Serene

1. We had a GIS class at a nature center and everything seemed so real that I never got lucid. My dreams are becoming so realistic and stable that it is seems more difficult to notice things that are off. This dream was super long. There was a bus taking people to the nature center but one of the guys needed to get his water shoes that he forgot, so I went with him to show him where to buy them and then we met at the nature center.(that in itself was long because the guy is hard of hearing so I had to keep repeating myself the whole time). We had to park our car in this large lot and got a ticket to put on the car, very realistic. I even saw the white ticket with writing on it that had our lot location B. We made our way up escalators and through a long building with different turns to get to the location where we met everyone. We had a short class on gps units that we were going to use. These units weren't the yellow ones I have seen before, they were red and tiny. I had a hard time seeing the screen. We had to buddy up and I didn't want the deaf guy, but I couldn't get rid of him (pretty typical). We had to go into the water and it was pretty scary because there are alligators. They said don't worry just shuffle your feet. We were in the mangroves and had to find markers they set to gps and between the guy who couldn't hear and my not being able to see the screen we made a horrible team. I felt like we got nowhere. I was embarrassed to see how poorly we did. When we turned down to go down the next area of mangroves they turned us around because they found a body and they had to call it in. We had to shuffle back and get out of the water and pretty much that was where they sent us to free lunch and said we could go home. They apologized and off we went. We ate fruit, wraps and brownies, then everyone in all of the classes left at the same time. It was chaos. I wanted to go back with everyone but because I didn't have a bus ticket, I was not allowed on the bus. I had to go back in the car with the deaf guy. We walked and walked trying to find where the parking lot was. It was an adventure in itself because we both were out of our comfort zone. Everything seemed so drawn out like 1 step forward 3 steps back kind of dream. It was a very long ride back and woke up.

This is the second work event with a drowned person.

1. I was spending most of this dream helping my boss out with her daughter who has very bad depression issues. I saw her son, daughter and husband in this dream even though I have only seen them on a couple of occasions in WL. I was doing a lot of work and moving furniture and boxes around. We live in Florida but her children are in Indiana. I was with her daughter and at one point we walked outside and there was snow so realized we were in Indiana and that was what it took for me to become lucid. I was so excited I stopped what we were doing and I started playing in the snow and throwing the snow at her. She looked at me like I was crazy and then she joined in and we had a snow fight. I had a blast because I have never been in snow and it felt so real, so I guess I officially can say I saw snow and played in it. Woke up.
I ended up back in the dream and I was in Florida with my boss again. This time her children were both here and there was a lot of drama going on. Her daughter answered the phone and the Director (someone who has been gone a long time-lucid) left her a message that her mom needed to call him immediately about a red credit card? That message somehow translated to my boss that she was going to be fired and was sure of it. She was devastated and crying. I told her this is just a dream. She stopped her crying fit looked at me cockeyed and said "I was waiting for you to figure that out"! I was so shocked it woke me up. That was not what I expected to hear.

2/15/17- My boss came to me and showed me photos her daughter sent her of the snow flakes that look like little stars on her mittens. They were beautiful and several of them. She told her mom she had so much fun playing in the snow. Another coincidence?

1. I was walking my dog which wasn't my WL dog so (Dream) when I noticed a hole on the side of the road maybe 6 inches wide but looked deep. As I went to pull the grass back to see how deep it was the grass lifted up like a carpet. Very lightweight and it made me giggle at how real it looked. Knowing this is a dream I let the dog go and pulled back the carpet where the hole was so I could see what was there. It had a flap that was a door to stairs that went underground. I thought this was pretty cool and decided to explore. I know the water table isn't far down there in WL but my curiosity got the best of me. I start walking down the stairs and they keep going. It is very damp and cool in the hole. I get to the bottom and I walk along the ground when I see another set of stairs going up. I walk up the stairs and out into someplace entirely different. It appeared to be from the past, or that was what my intuition was telling me. I crawled out to what appeared to be a tall grassy area with mountains at a distance. I stood there and looked around and didn't see anything that would tell me where I was. I was about to fly around because I wanted to explore my new secret land when I was woken up by dog kicking me.
2. I was dressed up going to some kind of event my daughter was going to be having and for some reason was meeting people at a hotel to help her with something. I recognized and old friend from years ago, RK he was friends with my ex and we got along great. He was so happy to see me he gave me a hug and was telling me about his wife and daughter that were both new since the time I knew him. He was there to help my daughter as well. We got in the elevator with about 10 people. It was a huge elevator but it still felt packed. There was a window in the back and I am afraid of heights so I stood near the front. Most people got off as we got higher but we were going to the top which was the 49th floor. There were about 4 of us now. When the door opened I felt I was still moving. Everyone got out and they went to look out the window to see the view. Normally when lucid heights don't bother me but this one I was not and I was terrified. It felt so real with RK there and he looked like I imagine he probably look these days. As they got over to the window I could feel the entire building tip to that side and I grabbed on to the wall in fear. RK laughed and said it is fine, that's what happens and he ran to the other side and I could feel it tip slightly to that side. Perfectly normal he said. I was convinced. We had our meeting with the hotel owner who was letting my daughter do her event there and RK is in sales and he was getting extra perks for her while she stayed here. I was impressed. Then there was a cocky guy who was wearing a business suit and had his chest puffed out who kept trying to get my attention. RK introduced me to him and he gestured in a way to watch out for him. I already could tell what kind of guy he was, so no worries. Then we all got in the elevator to go back down when the cocky guy opens the window and sits in a seat by the window. I was afraid enough without a window open. There were bars for him to hold on to. RK then goes and sits next to the guy and tells me to come with there too. I said no thank you that is not safe. I was shocked there would be an open window in an elevator. As we went down the wind got so bad. It was crazy. I could hear flapping and swirling of the wind. All of a sudden I heard and saw the most horrifying thing. The cocky guy was there and poof he was gone with the most awful sucking sound. RK was sitting there looking dazed. I yelled for him to hold on and I could see his hands slowly grab onto the pole. He didn't show any emotion at all. His hands were grasping softly then swoosh he got sucked out too. I was devastated as I literally watched him get sucked out in slow motion. Felt real. Then I was teleported out to about 1000 feet from the hotel and I was walking toward it...that was when the aha moment happened that this was a dream and I felt so relieved but as I was understanding that I was walking closer and could see the bodies of the two of them falling to the ground like windmills. Head toe head toe spinning. That confirmed it was a dream. No one is going to spin like that. Whew I was relieved and as I got to where I was in front of the hotel I saw people leaning over their balconies throwing purple flower pedals down on them. Now that was strange.

1. I was walking down a dirt path with tree shading it and it was beautiful, up ahead I saw something but couldn't make out what when I was struggling to get what it was out pops the adorable DC that I have been seeing now and then in my dreams (dream sign for me). We both seem to be in our mid to late 20's again. We have a very strong connection without speaking much. We hug and then we walk on the path holding hands, when I see the most amazing tree ever. It had the thickest branches I ever saw (hmmm that just clicked lol) I wanted to touch the tree because the bark was so smooth. I ran over to it so giddy and started to climb onto the lower branches which were very low to the ground. Perfect climbing tree. I climbed about half way up and was amazed at how wide the branch was. I laid on my back and looked up amazed at how high the tree went. Then up pops the adorable guy. Immediately I was feeling frisky and started to undress. He looked shocked at first but then he came over to help me. Can't go into details but it was so much fun and the tree was so soft. I am always amazed at how strong the senses are in these dreams.

2. At an event for work when I had to go to the bathroom and all of the stalls were taken except one and it was just so bad I couldn't go in it. I kept waiting for someone to come out, when I kept seeing this cute little girl peeking under while her mom was in there and I was waving at her. Then I finally decide I can't wait, and go in the nasty one. I flush and grab a wad of paper and start cleaning the seat but it has clear jelly stuff all over the seat and I wipe but it just moves around. I keep cleaning and cleaning then put the paper on the seat. I get done and come out and noone is left in the bathroom lol. Figures I wash my hands over and over in disgust. Eeeew. (How does one go from a great sex dream to a nasty bathroom dream?)

3. I was at a train station in line to board (never been on a train in my life) I get in and sit down and the train is full. This was a train ride from hell. It was a long scary ride with lots of happenings, when we passed another train and I was trying to look at the faces and focus in on them as we passed. I was trying to convey my fear. I saw several people looking at me and was able to get eye contact, but then I saw Hermione from Harry Potter (dream) lol. I was able to telepathically send her a message of what was going on with this train, someone was stealing it and it was out of control. Hermione was able to teleport onto the train and she was now sitting 4 seats in front of me. One lady recognized Hermione and asked if she could give her larger breasts. She did. Then we had people lining up with things they wanted to change. Smooth skin, hair color, sex change, one girl had tiny little arms and she wanted them larger. I stretched them out but they didn't look natural so Hermione had to come up with a spell for that. We even made old people young again. It was so much fun we totally forgot about the fact that the train was out of control.

I think all I can count on lately are HH's. Due to insomnia.
1. Kaleidoscope images that were totally awesome. I was able to recognize the pattern of movement and change it to opposite, faster and slower.

2. Now I saw the throne chair that I am guessing went with the crown from last night lol. It had lots of gold and blue velvety material.

3. Harlow? (No idea)

4. My mom sitting on the child seat of the grocery cart, the fun kind. This one was a platform that was in back where the handle is. It looked like a race car. She was sitting in there waving at me laughing and giggling. I actually laughed out loud because my mom would never do that.

Note: I have had horrible insomnia for a few years now. I average 20 - 30 hours of sleep a week.

I only got two hours of sleep but in my attempt I had several short HH's and a short dream.
1. HH of a beautiful large crown like nothing I have ever seen. It was gold with diamonds but mostly blue sapphire looking stones all over it with great detail. I was staring at it and admiring every little detail which was extremely stable but eventually floated outside of my vision.

2. HH of a beautiful woman with brown long soft wavy hair and piercing green eyes, very seductive looking. I was watching her and admiring how pretty she was when she started to transform as if she was stretching. I decided to try to control it and changed her hair to blonde, her eyes to blue, and she snapped back into being more stable, I had a moment where I was a surprised I could change her when I wasn't even asleep yet, then her eyes disappeared and she started to get scary looking and dissolved.

3. I saw an old school friend that had a glass eye. I knew him in 7th grade so knew this was a dream. He was reaching his arms out for me from a distance and never said a word. Just as I got to him to grab his hands I woke up.

Trying to sleep last night was crazy so got up and took Advil Pm after about 3 hours of trying. Nothing recalled at all after that but while falling asleep I heard the VOICE say Adirondack and that stuck in my mind all night because I have vaguely heard of the mountains but they don't have any meaning at all to me.

I don't feel I was part of this dream but more watching the scene unfold. My view was from above. To my right was a large group of viking warriors walking on green grass coming over a small hillside. I would guess around 100 of them. I was observing them with their axes and swords. They were all walking quickly. The one person that stood out to me was a woman in the front who had brown short choppy hair. She had a fierce look on her face. Just as they came toward the front of my view I looked to my left and at a distance there was a tall grass hill that was very long and at the top were horses and soldiers as far as you could see around the entire top of the hill. Appeared to be thousands of them. I looked back at the vikings and the woman threw her hand with the sword into the air and yelled "retreat, retreat, retreat"! They all ran back to the right while to the left the soldiers came racing down the hill on their horses and on foot. I watched as the entire group of soldiers went in chase of the vikings, over the hill to my right and couldn't control anything.

I was walking through fields when I came upon a building that appeared to be a school because there were many playground areas. It seemed to be the only thing visible other than the fields. As I got closer it had a chain link fence around it and I couldn't get in. I was walking around it looking for an entrance when I noticed something to my left. Through the center of the school child sized wooden chairs of different colors started floating up and out of the school, straight up and extremely slow. (Dream) I thought to myself, this one ranks up there on out of the ordinary type situations, and I was watching trying to understand what this meant. This dream is telling me something. It surely wanted to make sure I knew I was dreaming. My first thought was how beautifully strange, but that feeling quickly turned to sadness. These empty chairs felt like a memorial.
I actually asked "what does this mean"? I wanted to follow the chairs but my intuition told me I was not supposed to. I had this sickening feeling that something bad was going to happen.

I was in a beautiful park all alone with paths to walk on with flowers of all colors imaginable. I was admiring the beauty when I saw a huge bumblebee fly past me (a fear of mine) only it looked beautiful and it didn't appear a threat. It was far too large being the size of a baseball so that was a clear dream sign for me. I walked over to a beautiful fountain that was very impressive. It had a beautiful design to it and at center had water shooting out toward the outside perimeter, then there were smaller sprays shooting straight up, and then there were little targeted ones that looked like they were jumping out and landing in a specific spot making loops in the air. Like the ones the kids play in. I put my hand in the water and it felt really cool. I became very curious if I could turn this water to fire. I thought about it and nothing happened. I turned around, put my hands over my eyes and said when I turn around the water will be fire. I knew it would be! I turned around and heard this super loud roar and hot wind flew in my face that made me jump back. It was horrifying. Not what I expected. I wanted to turn the water to fire but the fountain was now shooting flames and fireballs out of it while loudly roaring.It looked like hot lava shooting out of a volcano and it was leaving the fountain. Not a good idea. I raised my hands with all of the confidence I could muster and as I lowered them said PLEASE calm down, way down!!!! Now I was looking at a beautiful fire pit fountain with just small sprays of fire and embers flying up in the air like a spray. I could feel the heat and I sat on the bench and watched its beauty as it faded. I don't normally like this kind of control but I felt the need to try something different.

When I went to bed last night I had such a strange feeling. I had super fast flashes of light that became a beat and the beat became a feeling of movement. Trying to analyze the feeling I came up with it felt like I was on a pogo stick and I was bouncing super fast. I didn't notice my heart beating fast and I felt fine so just decided I better slow it down so I relaxed and slowed it down to a good pace very quickly. Then fell asleep and when I opened my eyes sure enough I giggled. I was in my old house on the military base Treasure Island between San Francisco and Oakland and I was back 10 years old in my front yard on my pogo stick. I was so impressed. The transition was so smooth and very controlled. I was extremely aware and decided to have fun with my pogo stick. I used to dress up like a clown with my friend and bounce around for the little kids and they would chase us all over laughing, so I turned into a clown. Kids started running toward me from every direction. I ran out of space to jump on the ground so I jumped up to the carport tops and bounced from the carport to the roof of the two story apartment looking housing and back to the carport roof all the way around the block. I t felt so good to be a kid again. One of the kids screamed how high can you jump? So I bounced on the roof and every time I bounced I got higher and higher, until I bounced so high I was in a cloud and lost my pogo stick and started to fall. I decided to fly over the Bay Bridge and then to San Francisco and Golden Gate bridge
then looped back to see Alcatraz and then back to the kids where they had pretty much given up on me and were all scattered about. I landed on a roof top and just sat and watched them playing, such a peaceful feeling.
(I still have a pogo stick and can still jump with no hands, just saying .

1. I went to sleep with intention of opening the book of secrets task. This one seemed really interesting to me. I was coming home from work and when I walked in my garage door it was nothing like my house (dream sign). I walk over to the kitchen table and right in front of me is a beautiful book that looks very artsy. It has drawings all over the front cover and under a drawing of a large beautiful rainbow is the word secrets. There are lots of hearts and someone spent a lot of time with all of the details. I was just about to open the book when I heard "stop". I turn to my left and there is a young girl about 16 who looked absolutely terrified that I was about to open her book. She was wearing flannel pants with light and dark pinks and a short sleeve shirt that was light pink. I think pjs. He hair is up as if she had just been washing her face. I looked back at the book and told her it was beautiful and I would really like to look inside. She started balling, tears flowing so hard and said, "NO! You will tell my father and he can't know what is in there". I walked over and gave her a hug and the dream faded.

2. I was by myself furniture shopping (dream sign) when I was totally overwhelmed with what to get and wondering if it would fit and what color would look best. I tried to imagine how it would look. Then I walked over and sat down on the couch and immediately I was with the couch in my living room sizing it up and checking how the color looked. I figured comfort was useless in a dream because that would be impossible to find in IWL, so I just played around with colors and sizes of different furniture. I also went to dining rooms and tried the same by sitting at the table. I couldn't bring it all in, just the table and one chair. It didn't work bringing the china cabinet and buffet to see what would fit best. I seemed to have to be touching it to bring it with me. I feel I got my answers of what I like :-).

3. I was walking in the grocery store picking up a few things when a guy taps me on the shoulder and tells me that he doesn't want to bother me but tells me to turn around and he points. I look down at the ground and there is a trail of blood behind me, going down the long isle. I was so embarrassed. I felt no pain and looked down and blood was everywhere. This was non lucid because knowing I don't have a period I felt something must be wrong with me to be bleeding like this. This is the second dream similar to this so I am thinking my mind is telling me to make an appointment since it has been 4 years since I went for pap. I know TMI.

I had took two Advil PM last night so I actually slept deep and had terrible recall but finally slept about 6 hours of pretty good sleep, getting up only twice. I have only ten minutes left when I looked at the clock before my alarm and thought this is it, last chance for a dream. When I closed my eyes they were flashing like crazy so I grabbed on to one of the white blotches and got sucked into a little dreamlet. I was smelling coffee really strong and it smelled so good. My head was pounding and I knew I had to have coffee and looked down at the table and I had about ten cups of coffee sitting in front of me. I appeared to be in a little cafe and a woman came over and started explaining all of my coffees. The one that stuck out was something about beans they pick out of crap? She said that was the best they had. Umm I made sure not to try that one. I just needed two cups but decided to taste them for fun. I pretty much liked all of them (except the one I didn't try) and it was amazing how different coffee can taste. The smell was so strong in my nose yet I make my coffee in the morning it isn't on a timer. Then I hear the jingle bells on the door which tells them someone is coming in. Next thing I knew three men are sitting at my table. I didn't know any of them but they all grabbed a cup and started drinking it which I thought was strange. They looked like they were hard working guys so I didn't say a word. Then one guy grabbed the untouched coffee and drank it and said this is the best coffee I ever had lol. My alarm went off.

1. My intention going to sleep was to find out if I remember things from waking life in my dreams. I am walking in to work and put my purse in the cabinet and notice my monitor on the left is on and the right is not. (Yesterday and Friday I put up the photo from Astronomy Domine's that has the palms up with the mantra in the center saying "When I am dreaming, I am aware that I am dreaming" I look at it occasionally throughout the day but purposely put it up only on the left screen). In this dream the photo is up but instead of dreaming it says sleeping in both spots. I looked again and thought to myself, is this the way it is supposed to work? I was surprised I noticed the difference, it was so subtle. My mind likes to tease me. Then I remembered my goal and sat in my chair and decided to think about numbers from waking life (yes lucid). I easily thought of birth dates, my social, my phone number and husbands and realized that yes it is just the same as being awake. Then my black screen on computer made a clicking noise, and I looked at it as white numbers were appearing. It was so cool. This was my memory haha. The numbers were coming across was the combination to my safe, my old telephone number when I was in high school, my husbands social security number, pins, passwords, they started coming faster as I read what they were out loud. This was like a memory test and they were scrolling down like a game, I had to get it before it fell off the bottom of the screen. So cool it went faster and faster. The strange thing is I don't remember many of those numbers in waking life. Needless to say I was excited. Probably doesn't sound exciting but I couldn't go back to sleep. I woke up and it was 12:34.

2. Trying hard to get back to sleep and I had two strange HHs. One was a woman with dark brown shoulder length hair sitting on the other side of the isle next to me like in a plane, she was rambling on and on about her Tina and how she lost her eye because of a neighbor boy and his throwing a stick at her eye. She is doing so well and her glass eye makes her look almost normal. Oh my

3. I am in a Dr.'s office and I see and totally naked elderly heavy set man laying face down on the table with his legs spread just enough hmmm, not a good last image before jumping out of bed to go to work but still on adrenaline rush from reaching my personal goal.

I keep reading Nebulus's nightmares and they creep me out. It was only a matter of time before reading nightmares was going to affect me. It started where Neb (in my mind that was who he was) was standing against a wooden wall with his hands in shackles and a gruesome looking man had an ax that he was throwing at him. Every time he missed he had to come back and yank the ax out of the wood. I went over and stood next to Neb and told him it was just a dream and he could change it. First I needed to freeze the guy to stop the ax from flying. I wanted him still so I pictured him frozen (meaning still but instead he turned to ice lol) Not exactly as planned but it worked. I asked Neb to get out of the shackles. I thought he would produce a key, but he slumped and as he slumped down his arms stretched out, and out his hands came. He looked like a rubber man haha. Neb said let's fly out of here, but I felt bad leaving ax man in ice so I thought I could blow hot air on him, I blew hard and only a little bit melted. I wished him to be unfrozen and that didn't work, so we decided not to waste any more time and left him knowing it would melt eventually. Neb flew up and I followed him up to the top of a castle wall where we sat and I told him from now on when he has a nightmare he will know it is a dream and he can change it to get out of any situation. I opened my hand and showed him a little red ball the size of a nickel and handed it to him and told him you don't have to kill! LOL. Even though I left a guy in an ice block, but he will be ok when it melts .
