    1. Just another LD

      by , 01-27-2016 at 09:21 PM
      I had an LD this morning. I thought it was becoming a weekly thing but it turned to a monthly thing . This time and the previous time were on work mornings which is good. I used to think I could have them only on weekends since I can sleep more on mornings.

      It was the usual "that can't be real" that got me lucid. I like that I don't force LDs. I like when I realize I'm dreaming because things don't seem to be real. It feels like my awareness has grown. That's one of the reasons I prefer DILD.

      I recall driving a car, and I became lucid there because something silly happened or so but I can't recall the details now. Then I tried to drive a motorcycle (I never did in waking life). I don't recall summoning the motorcycle. It sort of just was there. I just got my driving license, that's most likely the reason for all the driving in the dream.

      Then I was in my house , and I don't remember how I got there. I decided to summon a door to a secret underground room or so. I found a crack on the wall which doesn't exist in reality of course. I tried to get this crack to open, and it did, and I went to some place that had bright nice looking rooms. The odd thing is that in the dream I thought these rooms looked like the real ones in my house with slight changes, but now I can tell they were much more different than i thought, so probably my memory wasn't perfect this time although I was lucid.

      I recall being afraid to jump a long distance. I have this silly thing, I fear doing risky things in dreams although I know there can be no real harm. I'm afraid that my fear will make it hurt, because my fear means I believe it could hurt.
      Anyway it was like in silly old computer games where you had to jump from some objects to others, and I managed to overcome my fear for a while and do some of them.

      I have many memory gaps, but I recall telling some dream characters that this was just a dream and they were not real. Their reaction was exactly like the last time, they were shocked and frustrated that they were just in my mind. Poor DCs .

      When I woke up I realized I didn't do any stabilization techniques like spinning which I use usually, or shouting at the dream which I only used last time. It is not that I didn't want to use them, they didn't cross my mind at all which sounds off to me now, I always did them before.

    2. I couldn't fly :(

      This morning I had an LD again after almost 2 months with a few false awakenings.

      I have no idea how I became lucid, somehow the memory of that is gone, but I remember parts of my non-lucid dream before it, and I recall trying to change things knowing that's possible in dreams. I was trying to prevent a murder by moving him away by just thinking of it .


      Anyway when I became lucid, I watched my sleeping self smiling (not in the same room I sleep in), then I tried to fly or float for the first time, and failed although I really believed I could do it.


      I moved on to not waste time, and tried to change the scene by spinning, again nothing, so I tried to imagine some fancy door that leads to another place, and I did it. I created a door but it didn't look like I imagined, just a simple white door.


      I went in anyway, and again not the natural scene I tried to create. I found a house with old styled furniture. I checked a newspaper and it was 1909, It felt like I traveled back in time, and I remember feeling younger (of course I wasn't born yet in 1909 ).


      I remember having some false flashbacks in that house (related to my waking life not the house) so I guess my lucidity was fading after I crossed the door because I don't recall making decisions while exploring the house like I usually do. I also remember talking to a character from a TV show that I watch currently who offered me fries and some food, then I woke up.


      For the first time, I wasn't really happy and excited when I woke up. I guess because I was disappointed I couldn't do something as simple as flying , I tried to push up many times to at least float, but didn't work.


      What do you guys do to fly? and can you be half-lucid during some parts of your lucid dream? I was still aware I was dreaming, but I think I didn't have full control over my character after I crossed the door.
