    1. Meditation in a lucid dream

      by , 08-11-2016 at 07:19 AM
      I was walking around with a monk. The monk said "Be careful with what you have in your hand, that is a spirit lantern." I look down and see that I am carrying a lantern. I snap into realization that this is a dream and become lucid. I become very confident and pick up two more spirit lantern and start to balance them and have fun, I do this extremely well. I then remember my lucid goal of meditating while in a dream. I close my eyes and take a few deep breaths. After the third breath I start to levitate. I open my eyes and become surprised and happy. I laugh, cheer, and wake up.

      WHEN I WOKE UP I FELT ~20 POUNDS LIGHTER. AFTER ABOUT ~1 MINUTE OF LAYING IN MY BED, I FELT AN INVISIBLE THING COME BACK INTO MY CHEST AND FELT LIKE MY REGULAR WEIGHT AGAIN!

      Howzit,

      So last night I woke up straight into SP, however, and I think it's because it was just some kind of progress as opposed to my usual failings, I handled it really well..! I didn't panic, in fact there was a distinct lack of foreboding (at first), so there I lay, gathering my composure until I felt ready to move on..! My first attempt at separation was trying to 'roll out', it didn't work..! I tried again, a couple of times to no avail, I did though I think feel some slight vibration in my right arm, I was laying on my left side..! So then I tried to 'will' myself out and this didn't work either..! It was at this point I started to feel fear creeping up on me, I stuck it out for as long as I could and then moved my arm to pull the covers over me..! Not wanting to waste an opportunity, as I fell back to sleep, I gently tapped my fingers as in performing a FILD..!

      My question is simple, knowing what I have told you, do any of you have any observations, tips or advice..? Did I do something wrong or do I just keep trying..? Should I try the rope technique..? I've just recalled, I did try to levitate and I think I may have had minimal success, but I'm telling you this as it comes to me as I write..!

      Thanks for any advice or input I receive in advance..!

      Cheers, Nicho..!
    3. early night lucid again

      by , 10-15-2015 at 10:18 AM
      Got to bed at 22:30

      Woke up at 1:30 with a lucid. i was semi-lucid to lucid with low awareness. (no memory on goals for example)
      some gaps in recall and as i woke up i needed some seconds to realize that i had a lucid. normally i wake up and am clear minded and happy about the lucid.

      i sit at a chair somewhere outside. there are two or three other friends. we wait for something. a door opens and and some friends are coming. it seems that we waited for them and want to drive somewhere? i try not to stand up but to levitate with the chair. i start smiling and tell a friend that i just cant concentrate on two things like talking to him and levitate at the same time. i try to focus, look down and tense my body but it doesnt work. now there is a table and we sitting around it. R is sitting towards me. he has a block with paper. i burn page after page down and at the beginning he wonders but then he sees that its me and says "hey!". I smile and want to try to throw a fireball. instead i throwing again a ball. this time it is a dragonball or something similar. i see it and get alarmed. the guy on my right side noticed it to and we both jump over the table to get the ball. he screams "my preciousss...." we get it at the same time and start tear and to pull. we lay on the ground and i finally accomplish to get it. right next to us is something on the ground. a little portal or something shimmery? A older guy with authority stands over us and says we should stop with this bullshit. i put the ball into my pocket.
      recallgap
      i am in a kitchen. my brother stands at the stove and cooks something. i think i try to levitate/fly again but it doesnt work. i look at my hand and want to make it burn. this time i concentrate just at the thumb and imagine how it would look like and it starts burning blueish. the fire expands on the whole hand. i need to focus a bit that it stays and not stops. i show it a guy next to me and ask him if he can see it. he nods. i throw the fire over the table and it jumps and falls to the ground. ups i say and go around the table to see it on the ground. i now put both my hands together and want to do a bigger fire. i concentrate again and throw it on the stove in the gas flame. the fire gets bigger for a second and makes a splutter sound.
      small recallgap i think
      going to get something. i am in a hallway. i see my dreamjournal on the ground and i want to pick it up. i sit down on the ground and think again about the levitation thing. i get the idea that if i concentrate on the book in my hand and make it levitate like there is no gravity the rest of my body will follow. the book starts having no weight in my hands and rise up and my whole body starts levitating too. i am that high that i can stretch myself and am standing. nice i think and am happy that it worked. i get a little higher aware and do a long noseplug and a deeeep breath. it is a little clogged but not much. i want to go back to the living room. i see my DJ on the ground and want to take it with me i dont want to bend down so i try it with telekinesis. i let the DJ rise but it opens and there are some markers a pen and some notes. i see challenge and try to make it all levitate but there are to many items and so i cant lift a part of it (damn real life restriction... i will work on that ) i bend down to pick everything up. i move some steps but then the DJ falls down. i get annoyed shortly and pick the stuff up. i hear my roommate saying: "Food is ready". i say i will come and hear S and K saying "i just want to try." i go to the living room and sit on the couch. i have a bowl with food. i think its like french fries with calamaris and some dip maybe? i tell L that i finally managed to levitate again. i sit on the bowl and have the same approach like before and let the bowl levitate and so do i. at the beginning i lean with my back on the couch and so i cant levitate to high or i would fall down behind. i notice that and shift my mass center and now i can levitate just beneath the ceiling. L tells S to look and he is shortly impressed but then keeps talking. he talks about minicar drivers (cheap cabs we have here), that he called one to let him pick them up and that he knows a special number normally they just give to each other and not to customers and that he has some of them already and he might open a business with it and make himself independent.
      i see myself on a street and see a minicar... wake up

      i think its very good that i start to have lucids without WBTB´s. so my new daytime practice seems to work somehow but on the other hand i am not that aware in those early lucids like i am after a WBTB but nevertheless a very good progress. i got a little bit frustrated about the fact hat i can accomplish lucids with WBTB´s when everything works fine with early bed time and focus and and and but it costs some energy and i wanted to get "spontaneous" lucids and now that i changed my RC/awarenessthing it seems to work pretty neat. one step closer to regular lucid dreaming
    4. Levitating my Wife

      by , 12-03-2014 at 04:39 AM
      I’m on a bit of dry spell right now, so I’ll describe this lucid dream from July 27, 2014. In this dream, seeing my ‘Dream Guide’ actually made me lucid. Btw, this dream figure hasn’t been around much lately. My dream guides now seem to be mostly family and close friends.

      After I became lucid, I decided to show my wife how I could levitate a pencil while lucid. I think this was the first time I actually levitated something in my 40 plus years of LD’s. I had recently read about this LD skill, and decided to give it a go. You know, up until recently, I had little knowledge about what was actually possible during a LD (thanks mostly to Dreamviews). Any who, my wife wasn’t very impressed with my new LD skill. My Dream Guide stood there intently watching. I then asked my wife to lie down on the coffee table, and she did. I levitated her 1 foot off the table, and then she wouldn’t go any higher. She still wasn’t impressed, and then I tried even harder. She floated almost to the ceiling! A vertical glass tube, about 2 ½ feet in diameter, and 7 foot tall, appeared to the left of me. How or why, I had no idea. I then instant transported my wife from levitating to standing upright inside the glass tube. Yup, you guessed it; she still wasn’t impressed (even though I was). I was aware of the ‘instant transport’ technique, because I can do that to myself while lucid, but I’ve never tried it, up until this point, to somebody else. I just think, “I’m there!”, and then I instantly transport from point A to point B. Next, I decided to levitate my wife out of the glass tube, but there wasn’t enough clearance between the ceiling and the top of the glass tube, so I asked my Dream Guide to tilt the glass tube over, and he did. I then floated my wife out of the tube and placed her gently, feet down, on the floor. At this point I forgot I was dreaming, and continued on with the adventure in a non-lucid state.

    5. The Flying Man is over the Running Man

      by , 04-17-2013 at 10:09 PM
      Now this one guy in my dream was pissing me off. He had some canisters with him that had some kind of power, which he stole from the people. He was running away with them. These canisters looked like the ones from the MMO Star Wars Galaxies, missle packs. He had three of them. I finally cornered the guy at the edge of a cliff. The cliff ledge jutted out like a peninsula with the sheer dropoff on each side. This guy was so desparate to get away that in a last attempt he grabbed the canisters and dove off the side, falling to what should be his death. Finally in my frustration I went lucid. Knowing I could fly, I dove off after him and flew down to him faster than he could fall and grabbed him. I telekinetically levitated the canisters back up to the top of the cliff, then proceeded to have fun with the idoit. I flew up a ways, accelerating massively way faster than any man-made rocket could. Then I let the guy drop again. This time I caught him half way down, stopping him suddenly once more. I knew that the G-forces were really messing this guy up. Next I flew up into the stratosphere where the air got thin and we could see into space seeing the heavenly bodies. Then I just let him drop to burn up in the atmosphere on his decent.

      I just remember it being really nice at that level in the stratosphere, the dream views (pun intended) were really awesome! I had some fun on my own now that I had gotten rid of this guy. I flew back down into the thick air of the troposphere for a moment, then back up again to perhaps 300 miles above where I was looking at the moon and stars before I woke up.
    6. The Search

      by , 04-23-2012 at 12:08 PM (Hey, Look... A Dream Journal)
      Today was my day off so I was planning to get a lot of dreaming done. But I was woken up at 6:30am by somebody at the door, turns out it was somebody delivering a package, but he was at the wrong bloody door! Anyway, although it did wake me up - it did lead to me having an unintentional DILD through WBTB.

      Around 8:30am
      DILD

      The Search
      Genre: Random
      Lucid (DILD)

      I am in my sisters room. I'm looking out the window and see a girl trying to climb up the side of a house. She uses ledges and bins to finally get up there, I then see her dog follow her up, no idea how the dog managed it - it just kind of jumped up. I walk downstairs to get a better look, but when I get to the window nobody is there any more. I now find myself outside, in a little path next to my house. Something doesn't feel quite right, so I look down at my hands but there doesn't appear to be anything wrong, just a bit blurry. I decide to plug my nose, and I can breathe! I'm dreaming.

      I decide to stabalize the dream first. I feel the fence on the right of me and then think of some things to do. I decided that I wanted to find one of my friends and see how they'd react to being told they are dreaming. I go around to my neighbours house and decide to ask them where they are. I chap the door, but instead of the usual person that answers, it's Ali G. This was really weird, but I ask him if he has seen my friends. He says spouts some shit which I can't understand, I decide to leave because he's wasting my time.

      My memory is a bit hazy after that. Next thing I do remember is trying out some dream control techniques, to keep my skills sharp. I point at a few objects and begin to levitate them. I levitate a few things like tyres and then throw them away using my mind. I then attempt it on a car, the car comes off the ground but for some reason I can't throw it. I do a little, but it doesn't go far. Anyway, my memory goes a bit blank after this.

      I am now outside my house again. I decide that the best place to find them would probably be the school where we all went to. I decide, instead of running or flying, I'll create a tele port. I draw a circle in the air with my finger and imagine the school at the other side of the circle. No luck. I decide to run there, it's not far. Whilst running, I attempt to fly, I usually have no trouble with flying but I couldn't in this dream for some reason. I remember that when I was attempting I jumped off the ground and ended up with my face hitting the ground. Felt no pain though.

      I felt myself running a lot faster than I am capable of in real life. I am now at the school. It looks a bit different. But I go in anyway. Somebody walks out of the door and says to me, "Hey... you made it!". I high five him like an idiot and try to go into the school. But the door is only one way, it's the exit door. I look inside and it seems to be some kind of prom/reunion thing going on.
      But then I wake up.

    7. A Couple Snowboard Dreams

      by , 01-28-2012 at 01:04 AM (Burke's Nightly Escapades)
      I was at our local town park on top of the hill that overlooks it. There were a few kids on the baseball field right at the base of the hill making a jump out of snow. They made it leading up to the pitcher's mound from home plate. One of them was on a snowboard standing over home plate with a bungee cord in his hand. It through him forward and he hit the jump going over the pitchers mound. The others clapped a little bit and walked towards him. Me, along with a few friends who were with me walked down to see exactly what they were doing.

      When we got down there the dream skipped to a point where me and both of my friends were standing in the outfield. The other kids who were already there were in the infield and one of them threw a baseball to the kid who had just hit the jump. He picked up his snowboard and hit the ball with it, sending it flying over the fence. He walked around the bases casually trying not to make it seem like a big deal. Then, for some reason, I turned to my friend who was lying on the ground. He then proceeded to levitate a few inches off the ground and just sat there.

      "Why don't you try spinning?" I said. At this point I didn't see anything out of the ordinary and just thought of it as an every day occurence (stupid me ). "Okay," He said and he then started to spin around in a circle. This is all I can really remember and I think I
      woke up shortly afterwards.



      (I can't tell is this actually happened or was a dream, lol, but I figured I might as well post it too) I was on the chairlift at out local ski hill and saw somebody flying down the main head wall on the trail. He went over a large roller (mount of snow) and just kept going, not doing anything fancy. Then, he hit another roller and went flying, about 15 feet in the air and landed straight to flat. He absorbed the shock as much as he could and his back hand punched into the ground. He didn't fall and rode off to the right and met up with two other people. They were making "Oh!" noises and what not and high fives went around. That's all I remember.
    8. Second attempt to call the dragon

      by , 12-06-2011 at 12:18 PM (Taffy's Sweet Dreams)
      I was in my room at night and became lucid. I flew through my window and did some flying tricks in front of my house. I swooped down and then rose with a corkscrew.

      I wound up in front of a mall. It was really dark, so I tried changing it to daytime, with no success. I reached my hand into the air and called out to the dragon, but he did not come. I thought I heard something, but there was nothing there. I went inside the mall.

      I flew around a bit, and just played with the dream world. A lady walked past, so I made her levitate. It made me laugh. I tried calling again, and turned around to see a white, yellow and red dragon sitting motionlessly on the tile floor. However, it seemed sort of fake. As I tried approaching it it disappeared. I continued on throughout the mall. I tried shapeshifting into a dragon myself. The attempted was kind of half hearted, I'm sure I could've done it if I tried a bit harder. I looked down and my hand and clenched my hand, trying to form a claw shape. I pictured scales. My palm looked a little strange, like when you put your arm on a screen door, then move away, but I decided to give up trying and explore.

      I was in a hall near the central area of the mall. There was a huge tv that was as tall as the room itself. I put my fingers out in front of me and made a motion, which shrunk the TV screen. I continued on and came to a store. I hurdled over racks of clothes with low gravity jumps. it was pretty fun
      , but I didn't even notice the dream fade away.
    9. I Am the Avatar

      by , 11-13-2010 at 10:31 PM
      October 19, 2005

      I dreamed that I was the new Avatar (The Last Airbender). I was showing off to all of my friends that I could levitate on a ball of air. The technique to it was to jump up in the air and cross your legs and the ball of air would support me. I floated around the rocky ground. Then one of my DCs said they could do it too. He tried but failed epically because all he did was sit there. Then I said, "Watch me," and I crossed my legs and floated around even more having a blast, while kicking up some nearby stones with the wind I floated on. I then stopped and remembered that I could control all four elements, so I tried fire. It shot out of my hands in a red flame. I tried to propel myself upward but it didn't work very well.
    10. Night Hike on the Freeway

      by , 10-28-2010 at 12:12 PM
      About a week ago, I went to bed worried. I recently lost a very important journal and I was attempting to clear my mind to remember where I might have hidden in. I started to dream instantly when I fell asleep - which has only occurred a few times in my life. I was not attempting a W.I.L.D.:

      I suddenly found myself walking on 101 (a 5-lane freeway in California) in the middle of the last lane before the fast lane. I paused to look around. Even though it was a starless night, I could see in perfect clarity and the visuals were photo realistic or better. I walked a few steps forward towards an overpass that was maybe 20-ft ahead. In the dark, I heard a car crash in the lane ahead just beyond the freeway overpass. I couldn't see that far in the darkness... But, I could hear car parts flying everywhere.

      One large piece of a car door came skidding directly towards me and stopped just at my feet. The visuals were so vivid, that I instantly suspected I was dreaming. I looked around again, no other cars or people were around. I moved my hand up as if to direct myself into the air. I levitated off the ground, above the height of the overpass with complete ease and control.

      Stationed on top of the overpass was something like an unused construction piece with a tower like structure. Atop that structure was something large with multiple points, covered in a tarp. The dream began to fade. I thrashed around to keep it going, and I remember thinking: this is my chance to search my subconscious for information.
      Instead, I woke a minute-or-two after I had laid down.

      I still haven't found the journal. If my subconscious was providing me with some sort of clue, at present, I have no idea what it was. Nearest I could figure, the journal might have slid underneath something. However, I searched my floor thoroughly. Any and all possible interpretations are welcome...

    11. Wave 27: Two IN A ROW! WOW! UNNNNBELIEVABLE!

      by , 08-25-2010 at 02:15 PM (The Meerkat's Lair)
      Oh yeah. Two nights. Two DILDs. Not DEILD like I would appreciate it, but two LDs nonetheless Not only that, in this one stuff HAPPENED! Not much, but STUFF! I dont remember much about my non-lucids, but who cares?

      The DILD: It is unclear how I ended up in this dream. The time was 2:50, but I dunno if I checked my real or dream watch. Im unsure about wether I got up from a false awakening or woke up, fell asleep and THEN got up. Anyway, I get up, go in the living room. Gabriel is waiting for me there, on the couch. Apparently he stopped at our house on his bike. At 2:50. Ok. Then I suddenly realise that dreaming is pretty much over now. U can forget DEILD for today. I dont like that, and tell my mom that its 2:50. It is day outside though. We chat for awhile until he leaves to Gab's house with...an 8 year old version of me. Im kind of half aware that its me, but I still wonder about how I never met what appears to be my lil bro. I ask if I can go with them, and mom says yes. As I am walking in the hallway I go: Oh lemme guess this is a dream. Yup. I do various reality checks, like turning a light on and off. Then I try to fly thru my window, fail, and walk outside. Instantly its dark outside again. Damn it, I kinda wanted daylight. The cats stalking the door, but it doesnt matter.
      Here is the place for lots of firsts. I encounter my first beautiful dreamscape. As I am walking outside, it starts to snow. Glowing, coloured snow. Its awesome. The trees are also covered and glitter in the night. If I could paint, I would paint it. Thats not my skill, though I am wearing a snow suit that seems to disappear and pop back up at times. I levitate for the first time. In the middle of the road, I do a backflip on my back and land floating two inches from the floor. Nice, but far from satisfying. Then as im floating I cant quite control it and get back on my feet a couple of times. So i give up and try the finger thru palm RC for the first time. I didnt know how it felt. So I remove my three pairs of gloves and push my finger. After a while, it pops right thru. Cool, but time's up. Already. I remember thinking: Awww, its over!

      Other crap: FA where I push down a bunch of round candy thinking il pick them up in the morning.
