I feel like I am past the point of trying to "get a hang of" lucid induction. My next goal is dream stabilization and lengthening. I woke up in early part of the morning to meditate like I usually do. My meditate was different in that instead of merely focusing on the breath, I began to watch the images produced by the mind's eye. This takes a quiet, focused mind because the images are extremely faint and distance in the field of vision when the eyes are closed. Another detail to note that images were "elevated". Instead of the images being parallel to the eyes, they were more parallel with the forehead so naturally, I raised my eyeballs upward to observe them. Which is strange because these aren't real images, merely generations of the mind. Yet, I couldn't help but observe them as if there was a distant movie screen raised behind my eyelids.

The effects were strange to say the least. My awareness felt muted and quiet as my awareness was focused on the mind's eye. It was like I was in a dark room inside my head. Well mind you I sleep and meditate with earplugs. After doing this for about 15-20 minutes, I went back to sleep. Before I got into bed, I had a strong sense of confidence that induction would be effortless because I had done it a dozen times before plus I had good feeling about the meditation. So I lay in my bed I do the same meditation exercise I was just doing. I don't know how much time passed but there came a point where I pushed my awareness into the dream world. It really felt like that. At first I am just observing the images in the mind's eye, then I am trying to push into to them. Next thing I know, I have my hands on the top of a metal fence and I am ready to hit the dream world.

I go outside to try to find Naomi, the dream character. Don't find her. Walk down my street and walk into this little house with two dogs; one which tried to bite me. I'm lucid so I used telekinesis to toss the dog aside. I meet these two men dressed in elaborate robes. I ask one of them dressed in red and has horns, "Have you seen a woman with grey skin and braids?"

All I remember was the man chuckling.

Woke up to find out I was only asleep for one hour. I'm pretty sure some more stuff happened but I have been lazy with my dream recall. I got back to sleep and have a very action packed dream about fighting Anakin Skywalker with Rey and Obi-Wan. LUL.
