Lucid Dream # 3 of 2007

I am in an apartment building, and I'm being chased up the stairs by a mob of zombies. I make it to the next floor, and enter an apartment. I close the door, and struggle with the lock. But I do get it to lock, after a few moments of messing with it. I cross the room and push open the window. it's a long way down, but I crawl out anyway. I am easily able to climb down the side of the building. Strangely though, I'm still inside of an even larger building. That the apartment building itself was inside of. I seem to have effectively escaped the zombies, There are none to be seen now.
There is a room nearby, with a glass wall, and a sliding glass door. I slide the door open, and walk inside. I see a short flight of stairs, that's leading down to a corridor. I follow the stairs down, and start walking along the hall. Then, for no apparent reason, the realization that I'm dreaming washes over me. I am like" Oh wow this is a dream! I did it!" Everything is so perfectly real and vivid. I immediately stop and turn around. All I want to do now, is find my way outside and go flying. I remember passing a doorway that lead outside. So I walk back the way I came, and go back up the stairs.
The floor is cement, and I can even hear my footsteps echoing as I walk. when I get to the spot that the door was, things have changed and there is now no door. "Oh great!"
I am not really very surprised though. I'm not sure I will be able to find my way out now, but I think that I can. I get the feeling that I am under ground, and I need to go up and out. I am thinking, that I should try and alter the dream from where I am, instead of trying to find my way out. But I am just starting to get my Lucid legs back, and I don't think I have that kind of skill yet. I keep following corridors upwards. And I eventually come to a locked door. I reach out with my mind, and unlock the door and push it open.(no hands needed!) After walking through a few more corridors, and up a few more stairways, I find a way outside. I have to walk up one last flight of stairs. From my angle below, all I can see is the sky. I've been trying to hurry, because I don't know how much time I have left. As I start ascending the last stairway, I see this very beautiful girl come walking down the stairs. I am like WOW! look at her!
" Hey come here a minute," I say. She seems afraid of me. "All I want is a hug," I tell her. She walks over to me and puts her arms around me. She is shorter Than me, and I just look down into her eyes, and admire how beautiful she is. That lasts about ten seconds before I wake up.

I woke up happy about the dream, but frustrated that I didn't get to go flying.
I should have left the girl alone!

A Lucid Dream
Sat/August/25/2007
Lucid Dream # 35 of 2007

It wasn't a real long one, but it was pretty intense While I was in it. and a strange new experience.

A continuation, of my super climbing abilities. I'm outside my house, and I'm in the front. I'm getting the lawn mower going, and I push it around to the back. (That's where most of the lawn is.) beyond the yard, are some woods. and at the edge of the woods is a thick tree line, that I can't see through. I don't remember why, but I think there are some wild animals in the woods. I want to see them but I can't, because the tree line is to thick to see through. I now remember about my climbing ability. I jump into the air, and grab onto some very thin branches of a near by tree. the branches bend with my weight, But it doesn't matter. I'm still able to easily pull myself up through them. As I climb, the tree changes. I'm now climbing up a tall birch-looking tree. It's dead, and partially rotting. there are no leaves, and the branches are thick broken stumps. With great skill, and speed, I climb to the top. And I'm even thinking about how cool it is, to have this super-climbing ability. Once I reach the top there is a small gap in my memory. I'm not sure what happened exactly, but the dream scene has completely changed and I am now Fully Lucid! At least I 'm fully aware that I am dreaming. Instead of being on top of a tree, I 'm standing on the top of a very tall post, like a telephone pole. And I'm looking across a scene of rotting destruction. It's like a forest that has been destroyed by fire, but everything that hasn't been fully consumed by flames, is chard and rotting. Including the post that I'm standing on. The image and feeling of it, is very intense. There are rows, and rows of post's like the one that I'm standing on. This is where things get strange. I have a complete memory of being here in another Lucid Dream before. And I'm very excited about the fact, that I have returned to the same place. As if it was a real place I could return to. I can remember how the last time I was here, I was jumping across the tops of the posts.( Remember these posts are very tall) I'm high in the air. The posts are pretty far apart, and I'm wondering if I can make the jump. But, then I remember it doesn't matter Because I'm dreaming, and I can use levitation. So I crouch and leap, towards the next post. As I jump, the pressure that I put on the post I was on makes it crumble and fall to the ground. they are so rotten, they are barely strong enough to hold my weight. The post is to far, but, I 'm able to use mental power to guide me. And I land gently on the post. I'm thinking about how I wanted to stay aware, and pay attention to what it feels like being in the dream. So that I can get Lucid easier next time. I jump across to another post, and as I land, I can see my watch sitting there on the top of it.
I laugh and think, No way, there's my watch! right where I had left it last time I was here. And I have a perfect memory of leaving it there. (Strange! I don't really have a memory of doing any such thing. Or ever even being in this dream before! I guess it could have been one that I never recalled) I pick up my watch and put it on. Then I wake up. And I have my watch! I was wondering where that went to! Ha ha, Just kidding.

I bought my watch specifically for Lucid Dreaming purposes. That's the first time it turned up in a dream. Not exactly the way I had intended though. these dreams took place in the first hour and a half of sleeping. But,I didn't have much recall for the next couple hours that I slept. Or from my nap either.

Grizzly Bear induced Lucid Dream!
Wednesday/August/29/2007
Lucid Dream # 36 of 2007

I can't remember everything that happened before becoming Lucid. I was with a grizzly bear, and I was wearing a bear suite! I don't remember why I was wearing the Bear suite, but there was a specific reason for it. And I was actually friends with the grizzly.
I needed to go somewhere with the grizzly. And we needed to walk through the woods to get there. Since I was wearing the suite I started playing around pretending that I was a bear. I started growling, and I charged at the real grizzly pretending like I was going to attack. But then the grizzly got pissed, and thought I was a real bear. And it began to charge me! And did it ever look mean when it came at me. But it was a bluff charge also, and it stopped short of attacking me. It stood there staring at me, head hanging low and teeth bared like a dog. I pulled off the head piece of my suite, and said "look it's OK it's just me." The bear was still growling, and angry looking. I walked up to it, and started petting the top of it's head. the bear seemed to calm down, and I say " come on lets go." I turn my back on it and start to walk away.
I suddenly feel something slam into me from behind, and I'm sent flying into the air!
I realize the bear had just head butted me in the ass, like a goat would or something.
And a moment after thinking that, since I'm now airborne I become Lucid!

I'm now pretty high in the air, and I shout "this is a dream!" I shout it once more.(it feels really good to shout this is a dream, in a dream) I decide I want to check out the details of stuff. Off in the distance, I can see this wall type structure. And even from where I am now I'm amazed at how real it looks. I start to fly in that direction, and I'm thrilled to see that the grizzly bear is following me. It's running across the ground at speed, directly below me. And I notice that I'm still wearing a bear suite, and I'm struck by the hilarious absurdity of the situation! Head butted into Lucidity by a bear, and flying in a bear suite! I get close to the wall structure, and I drift down and land. I'm so amazed at the detail of this thing, and how my mind could be creating it. The wall is kind of in the shape of a horse shoe. the lower half of it is made by these really amazing looking rocks. Their held together by some kind of mortar or something. the top half is made by an orange colored wood. And there is an awning hanging over the side of it, on the inside of the horse shoe. I get the feeling that this is an area for having picnics. I can see a play ground area a little ways away, for kids.
I decide to fly again, and as I start to levitate I also think about waking up. and I do end up waking up pretty quick after thinking about it.

Comments
I wish I would have paid more attention to the bear instead of the wall.
I didn't remember, that I wanted to try talking to a bear next time I got Lucid near one. That would have been so fun to play with a grizzly in a Lucid!

Attack of the super villain
A Lucid Dream!

Lucid Dream # 37 of 2007



The first thing I remember, is being in the parking lot of some store or something. There are a lot of people outside the building and I'm talking with a couple of them.
Then I decide to leave. The ground is icy, and slippery. I begin to skate away on my feet as if I had skates on, only I'm wearing shoes.(happens fairly often in my dreams.) I skate out of the parking lot, and down a side street. There are mounds of snow along the side of the street. I'm skating pretty fast now, and I start veering to the side of the road and jumping the mounds of snow. The mounds of snow start getting bigger, and I have to jump higher with each one I come to. Eventually I catch enough air, and I get Lucid!

"This is a dream!" I shout, And I begin flying higher. There are many trees around me, and I'm flying up through the branches. The many branches around me are almost tunnel-like, and they create the effect of making me feel like I'm moving very fast. I eventually fly up and out of the last of the branches. Off in the distance, I can see this tall crane-like tower. There is some kind of cable-car hanging off of it. I realize that I'm looking at some kind of ride at a theme park.( It's also night but not to dark to see.)
The park is shut down, and I'm thinking it may be fun to go sit on top of the cable car and check out the view from there. But then, suddenly, I notice the form of a dark figure climbing the crane like-tower. And due to the speed and agility in which he is climbing, I realize that he also has super-human abilities. I'm not sure why, but I know he is up to no good. I decide, that I will fly up there and confront him. As I begin to fly higher, I now have the obstacle of power-lines! I fly through the first layer, and there is another layer beyond that. And beyond that... another layer. Then I begin thinking about Moonbeams power-line dream. And as soon as I think about that, the power-lines begin to thicken around me! Defiantly, I proclaim that is not going to happen! And immediately the power-lines begin to thin out. I am now able to get through them. But I'm still having trouble getting beyond them. I am so anxious to reach my destination, that I forget to just slow down and play on the power-lines to make them go away. I look towards the crane structure, and I can see the super-villain on top of it. He is crouched down, and there are many cables around him as well. He is yanking out the cables to the ride. electrical sparks are showering over the sides. I realize he is trying to sabotage the ride, so that the next people to ride on it will fall to their deaths.
Now, Conveniently, I no longer have to make it to him, because he is coming for me. I watch as he leaps through the air, and lands on the roof of a near by building. I fly over and land on the roof to meet him. He is wearing this awsome looking yellow and black ninja style suite. And his face looks almost like one of those old style hockey masks. but only in the way it is shaped, because it looks way cooler than that. the face mask is black and yellow as well, and very detailed. where the mouth should be are metal slits. As I land on the roof, he turns towards me. His arm jerks forward, and I see something silver streaking towards me." Oh crap knives!" But, then I remember it doesn't matter, and I charge forward straight into the knives. I have no idea if any of the knives hit me or not. If they did they had no effect and I didn't feel them at all. I completely ignored them, I didn't care. I reach the villain, and I attack with some imaginary martial arts moves, that I'm making up as I go along. Different kinds of throws and round house kicks and what not. I'm basically kicking his butt pretty good.
He's not getting any hits on me. But I'm not really causing him any harm either. Just knocking him around pretty good. As I'm fighting, I'm thinking that I had better be careful not to get to caught up in the action, and forget that I'm dreaming. We battle on the roof for a while before I finally wake up.

Comments
Thats the first time I ever felt the need to fight anyone in a Lucid Dream. Normally I will just let them attack me and laugh at their futile attempts to cause me harm. or, I will just reach out with my mind and send them floating away. But I decided to have fun going along with the whole super-hero action thing. I've watched to many of those kind of movies Lately I guess. Super hero movies always motivate me to get Lucid. It's great watching a movie like that, and to know I actually get to do that kind of stuff. By day, I'm just an ordinary guy. By night I'm something else entirely. LOL!. How old am I again? I guess I'll never grow up.

A Lucid Dream!

Lucid Dream # 38 of 2007

I have no idea what point I became Lucid in this dream.

I'm already fully Lucid in my first memory of this dream. I'm flying above a military helicopter. I'm just above the whirling blades, and flying superman style. I decide to do a big loop in the air, and the helicopter follows me as I do. It's kind of strange, it's like I'm controlling the helicopter. It moves with me when I fly. I do a couple of loops, when suddenly, a group of enemy helicopters come baring down on me from behind.
I'm not sure how many there are but there's a few of them. They come at me spraying a shower of bullets. I actually find this kind of funny, I'm not afraid of them at all. I turn around so that I'm flying backwards and facing my attackers. I'm flying on my back now, and I point my finger at them like it's a gun with my thumb sticking up. I pretend like I'm firing back at them. It's just kind of a silly display to show them how little I fear them. After a few moments, I start to get annoyed with all the commotion of the helicopters around me. And since my imaginary finger gun isn't really doing anything. I shout, "All helicopters destroyed!" And I punctuate the word destroyed, with a forceful wave of my hand. To my delight, every helicopter instantly vanishes. and I'm now in the sky alone. I was so excited that I was able to make them disappear like that. I'm not used to having that form of dream control. And I had never tried using commands before. Now I just fly, for what seems Like a very long time.
My memory here isn't very clear. But I remember that I was flying for so long that I decided that I should do something other than just fly. So I land. I don't remember much about the area where I landed. My next clear memory is that I'm in a shopping center Like a mall or something. And I'm just walking along Looking at everything in fascination. I love stores in Lucid Dreams, There is always so many amazing things to see. I'm walking along a corridor of the mall, and I come to an area where there are lockers along the wall. And there is a bunch of very nice looking girls in front of the lockers. Their doing who knows what, getting their stuff out of their lockers or whatever. I'm just standing there checking them out, when the dream environment reforms itself around me. And I'm now standing in the middle of a womens locker room! now there are all sorts of girls walking around, in various states of undress.
Some fully clothed, some topless, some just coming out of the showers with towels around them. And some completely nude. And every one of them is as perfect as a dream.(OK, now how can a guy be expected to resist this kind of temptation!) I move towards one of the girls, But then I hesitate thinking that I'm probably about to throw the dream away. So instead of trying to have sex with any of them, I just do a little bit of exploring with my hands. The girls are friendly and don't mind. Except for the exception of one, who gets pissed off and tries to slap me. I duck and move away real quick, and go back to some of the more friendly girls. After a while of playing around in this way, and marveling at how real they all are. I ask, if they are wondering how I can be in their locker room with out getting into trouble. they seem kind of confused, and no one has an explanation for it.
"Maybe it's because, this is all a dream!" I say. And I start laughing. The girls laugh too, because they think it's a funny idea. I exit the locker room, and I find myself back in some store of the mall. There are people around shopping. And again loudly, I say, " Maybe this is all a dream!" And the people around me start to laugh. And I start laughing so hard, that I must have been laughing in my sleep. Because the joke is going right over their heads. And I'm the only one who knows, that it really is a dream. For some reason I find this to be funny as hell. Then I say, "Man, I've never had so much fun in my entire life!" I start to think about what I might want to do next, when I wake up.

Two Lucid Dreams last night!
Lucid Dream # 39 of 2007
Wed/September/19/2007

This one is going to be a little tricky to describe, and I'm pretty tired right now. I'll give it a shot.

I was with my step brother Z. (Yeah his first name starts with a Z.) We were on foot when we come to a bridge over a wide river. Connected to the bridge somehow, is this huge yellow construction machine. And it's doing some work on the bridge. It has an arm like a backhoe, only it's very huge. At the end of the arm, it has these pincers for picking things up. Like a robot would have for hands. When they see that we want to get across, they bring the arm across to the side, and stop it at a designated spot. when it's safe for us to go across, there is a beeping sound that tells us we can go.

There isn't much room to walk along side of it, and I'm a little afraid to go. I'm thinking maybe they don't really see us, and the arm will start moving while we are in the way of it. Tentatively, I step out onto the bridge. But, after making a few steps, the arm does start to move. But now I'm actually on the arm somehow, and I'm swinging out across the river. I realize, that if I continue in this way, I'm going to end up crushed in the construction equipment. With out even thinking, I jump off backwards. I start trying to will myself to go upwards. So I can land on top of the huge machine that the arm is attached to. I notice how strange it is that I'm forcing myself to move upwards, instead of falling. Humorously, I think to myself, what do you think this is, a dream or something! And I think it's kind of funny. But I'm still able to will myself upwards. I rise above the roof of this machine, Thats actually a part of the bridge somehow. it's pretty wide and yellow, and also long. Then I realize, that if I'm able to move myself through the air like this it must be a dream! And as I bring myself gently down on the roof, I'm completely Lucid! (Going to have to finish this tomorrow I'm really tired.)

Lucid Dream # 39 continued
I start to walk across the roof towards the side of the bridge I had just come from. My step brother is still standing over there. As I walk in that direction, the thing I'm walking on begins to tilt upwards, and towards me. kind of like the way a draw bridge would. I climb up to the top of it, and I yell out, "hey Z this is a dream!" this part is so strange, because the thing I'm walking on keeps changing. It's not even really a bridge anymore, just a big something. It keeps rolling over backwards, so that I have to keep climbing over it in order to stay on the top side of it. then the thing is straight up and down, and sinking into the river. It reminds me of the movie Titanic when the ship sank, and they were on the back railing. (crap, I forgot to write this in blue! oh well.)
I can actually see tail lights where I'm standing. As if I'm on the back bumper of some monstrous car. I shout "Woo Hoo, look at me! I'm on the back of the sinking Titanic!"
I hold up my left leg and twirl around on one foot thinking I'm dream spinning. But I turn to slowly for it to have any effect. In a silly mood now, I shout " I'm the king of the world!" As I'm sinking down into the river. But the thing doesn't fully sink. It bobs back up and starts to roll over backwards again. I continue climbing over it as it rolls, to stay on the top side. I'm still pretty high above the river, and I think about letting myself fall off backwards, and free fall into the water. But I change my mind, because I free fall all the time, and I want to try something different. I forgot that I wanted to try some under water exploring. I start trying to think if there was anything specific I wanted to try. My memory is failing me here! I'm aware that there is about a dozen things I wanted to try doing, But I can't think of one thing. I really start straining to remember, and I'm getting a little frustrated that I can't. I give up trying, and as soon as I do, the Lucid Task comes back to me. I think, cool I'm in the perfect spot for it. I jump off the strange thing I'm on, and drift down towards the side of the river. While still in the air, I'm already reaching out with my mind, and trying to levitate the water up. But I'm having a momentary block, and I'm not having any luck. I'm not worried at all, because I know I can do it. I land, and its not really a shore. The water comes up against a cement wall. Similar to a place on the Mississippi river near my house, where they have a dam, and a park along the river. There are people walking by, and feeling like I have all the time in the world. I start to dance around, chanting " I'm going to do the Lucid Task" in kind of a sing song way. people are giving me an odd look. But I kind of meant to freak them out a little. I decide that I'm going to practice levitating something else before I try the water again. I see this girl in a white dress walking towards me, as if she wants to tell me something. I reach out with my mind and stop her, then I begin to lift her into the air. But I'm not having an easy time of it. I'm trying to hard, and I know I'm going about it all wrong. I'm straining so hard, that I swear my eyes must have been bugging out of their sockets. I'm kind of laughing at myself, because I know it's not something that has to be forced the way I'm trying to force it.
I raise her a few feet off the ground. then I lose control and she drops down, and I wake up.

I had only been sleeping for an hour. I get up and go to the bathroom, then lay back down. I have a brief moment of Lucidity induced by my watch, for the first Time finally!

It's kind of strange, because I'm laying in bed trying to fall asleep. and I slide into a dream that I'm laying in my bed trying to fall asleep. I never notice the shift between being awake and then a dream. I Look at my watch to see how much time I have before I have to get up for work. And My watch says it's 10:32am! I'm Like what the hell. It was 4:00am just a moment ago, and I'm supposed to be to work by 7:00am.
Then I realize the reason for it is because I'm dreaming. but as soon as I become Lucid I slide back awake. I wasn't deep enough into it yet, almost as if trying to do a WILD

Then I go back to sleep and into another Lucid Dream where I create the water tornado.

Lucid dream # 40 of 2007
Wednesday/September/19/2007

In this dream, I'm all ready Lucid at the point of my first clear memory. But I know I had been lucid for a little while before this. I'm at a park, near a baseball field. there is a game being played on the field. There are bleachers with a bunch of people on them.
I'm standing on the ground looking up at the people on the bleachers. And I'm checking out the girls, thinking about messing around with one of them. My brother is also there, and he knows it's a dream too. After a while of checking out the girls, I remember I want to do the Lucid Task. I look around, And through some trees a little ways off I can tell there is a lake. I tell my brother I'm going to do the Lucid Task, And we both start walking in that direction. On the way there things change somehow. And we are now in some room, with furniture and junk piled all over. There are also other people there. I start talking to my brother about the dream world. ( I'm thinking it's actually him an not just a dream character.) Teaching him some things, seems more important than doing the Task at the time. I climb up on some big pile of junk in the middle of the room. I explain to my brother how you can reach out with your mind, and actually feel an object. Then Just lift it through the air, as easy as if you were holding it with your hand. Then, I demonstrate by levitating a wooden end table on the other side of the room. I bring it across the room towards me, then I grab the leg of the table and hold it up. "See How I did that," I say. Then I say, " it feels just like a wooden table in my hand too." And I marvel at how perfect it is. I drop the table, then tell my brother I'm going to go do the Lucid Task. I leave the room, and I'm outside again. And the Lake is still there. I walk up to the edge of the water and reach out with my mind. I start levitating a column of water up out of the center of the lake. At first, it's about as wide as an ice cream bucket and a couple of feet high. It's already spinning as I bring it up. And once it gets about as high as a person is tall. I notice it looks like a tornado. I think, Oh cool it's a tornado! At this point, I think I had already accomplished the Task. I really like my tornado so I keep going with it. As I keep bringing it up higher, it also gets wider. And begins spinning faster and faster. Eventually, it's the size of an actual tornado. And after I'm satisfied with the way it looks. I start moving it across the surface of the Lake. I want to send it tearing across the Land. But before It can make it to land I wake up.

Weather or not I get credit for this one, I consider it a success. Because I wanted to bring a monster up out of a lake. And a tornado is definitely a monster! But I wanted to see it unleashed in a fury of destruction.

A Lucid Dream!
First successful use of nose reality check!
Lucid Dream # 41 of 2007
Sunday/September/23/2007

I actually have done the nose reality check one other time. but that was just to see what it was like. Not because I needed to do it. This time I needed it.

I was at work, and nothing was going right. People were getting in my way, and one person totally ruined something I was working on. I was starting to get really pissed off. I stop, and I'm aware that this kind of thing often happens in my work dreams.
Then I think the words, this is just like what happens in work dreams. And as soon as the sentence goes through my mind, Lucidity washes over me! I'm thinking oh wow, this is a dream! But my Lucidity is very tentative. I start walking along, and the dream even feels exactly like waking life. And everything is exactly the way it should be. The only abnormalities are very subtle ones. And could easily actually happen. Just a few people working there that I've never seen before. And an old boss that no longer works there. But he does still work for the company, and he does show up every now and then. I walk up to my old boss and I say,"This is a dream." At this point I'm already starting to doubt it. "Oh yeah?" he replies. He then just keeps on working and pretty much ignores me. It's obvious that he doesn't believe me. I think about doing something that would be very stupid if it was real life. Thats when I really start to lose Lucidity. I'm thinking this can't be a dream it's just to perfect. But I really want it to be a dream! And I now remember to do a reality check. I pinch my nose, and I take a deep breath. I can breath perfectly and I'm surprised by it, and I know it's a dream. But right away I start to doubt it again. So I try it again. I make sure that my nose is pinched really well. And I take another deep breath through my nose. I can breath so easily. It's even easier than the time I tried it while fully Lucid. Now I know it's a dream. I want to do something to freak the people out around me. I see a knife with a long blade, and I pick it up. I think about stabbing myself with it in the stomach. I'm still not confident enough to just stab myself. I figure if I push it in slowly, I can stop if it starts to hurt. So I put the tip of the blade up against my stomach, and I begin pushing.
But with just a little bit of pressure. the resistance on my stomach feels pretty real, but it doesn't hurt. so I keep pushing, with a little more pressure. And I wiggle the knife just a little to get it to go in. Finally, the blade slides in. I can feel it sliding against my skin but it doesn't hurt at all, and there is no blood. When the blade goes in about half way, I stop and let go of it. I tell my old boss to look. "What the hell are you doing!" he says. He walks up to me and pulls the knife out. And he then goes back to work.
Then the dream fades and I wake up.

Sounds a little demented I know! but I've always liked playing with my own indestructibility in dreams. It gives me the confidence to face any kind of scary situation. Plus it's fun freaking out dream characters.

Lucid Dream # 42 of 2007
Monday/October/1/2007

This one was hard to recall since I had a false awakening, and went into another dream without waking up. And it took place in the first hour of sleeping. So the little details are a bit fuzzy. It was really short anyway.

I was in an outside area surrounded by buildings. I get the feeling that they were wear house buildings. I suddenly see Freddy Krueger, and he immediately comes running towards me ready to slice me up with those razor blade fingers of his. And almost instantly I realize I'm dreaming. I reach out with my mind, and I levitate him so fast and so high. That he rockets into the sky and disappears from sight in a matter of seconds.
I chuckle to myself. I think it's pretty funny that I made such short work of him so
quickly. I'm about to levitate myself and start flying, when I'm woken up by somebody coming to my house.( Not really it's a false awakening) I'm half naked wrapped in my blanket. I get pissed off and yell at them to go away because I'm trying to sleep! They go away and I feel bad about yelling at them. I lay back down and go back to sleep.

Lucid Dream # 43 Of 2007
This one I remember vividly

Next, I find myself on a narrow trail There are trees and brush on it. But, it's strange it's like a peninsula there are large bodies of water on either side of the trail. As I walk, the trail gets even narrower. the trail isn't much more than a strip of slippery mud now. I realize there has been flooding. I little farther down I come to a spot where I can no longer walk. because the water has gone over the trail. so I turn around and start to head back. But I don't get far. because, now the water has gone over the trail behind me, and blocked my retreat as well. But, I can see where there is land. So I take a couple of running steps and try and jump for it. I end up over open water, and the land is much to far away. I start to will myself forward. So I'm now kind of flying, trying desperately to make a very long jump. I start becoming partially Lucid here. But I'm to focused on trying to get to land, to let it fully sink in. Now there are fast currents all around, and I'm increasingly more afraid of falling in the water. And as it becomes obvious that there is no way I will make it. I become fully Lucid! relief washes over me, and I continue to fly along the surface of the water. after a short while, I start seeing water falls flowing over high cliffs in front of me, and to the sides of me. It's very beautiful! Once I reach the cliff in front of me, and a wall of falling water. I fly up the waterfall. I can feel the cool misty spray from the falls. It's just awsome. I fly up it very fast, and then rise above it. I'm in such a state of exhilarated joy. that all I can do is fly straight up into the sky, and then lean backwards into an end over end free fall.
I enjoy the awsome feeling of complete surrender of control, until I end up waking up.

Another short But interesting Lucid Dream!
Lucid Dream # 44 Of 2007
Sunday/October/7/2007

The first parts a little confusing. It was another early Lucid. Hmm... Well I was in this massive place. It was a combination building, and a prehistoric forest. But the building was on a very massive scale. The first thing I remember is a bunch of dinosaurs coming towards me one by one. They were huge But after a moment I realized they were just the babies. And they all climbed into a nest not far from me. Then, suddenly I'm in the nest too. As if I'm one of the baby dinosaurs. And I can see the mother coming. Talk about big holy cow. I don't know what you call it. It stood on four legs, and It had the big fan like bone around the head. And The horn on the nose. It was so huge that it could step on me like a bug. like if I was two inches tall standing next to a normal sized person. I look around the nest, and the other dinosaurs are looking at me as if they want to eat me.
I think I'm getting partially Lucid here, Because I suddenly fly out of the nest, and way up onto a wall. Now, to get an idea of how big this place is I'm in. I'm far above the giant mother dinosaur. And I'm standing on the right side edge, of a giant picture frame of some painting. Tell you the truth, I'm not sure if everything was that big. Or if I was just that small. Now, for some reason I think I'm in a video game. I look down and the mother is staring up at me. I know she wants to get me. Very smoothly, the idea of being in a video game. Becomes awareness that it's a dream. And I'm fully Lucid. I'm no longer afraid if the dinosaur. I jump from the picture frame and begin to fly towards an opening in a wall on the other side of the room. If thats what you can call this place.
And I remember the Lucid Task right away. But, I know I'm flying out into some prehistoric wilderness. And I'm thinking it's going to be impossible to find a mirror in a place like this. So, thinking it's the wrong Lucid, to bother with trying for the task. I decide to just enjoy the moment. As I'm flying towards the opening, I look down. The giant dinosaur is running along below me following me. Just like the grizzly bear was, a few Lucids back. But unlike the bear, this monster was not my friend. It was following me because it wanted to kill me. I wasn't bothered at all though. I was flying along watching it in fascination. It kept looking up at me, and it had yellow eyes. I was observing the amazing realistic detail of it. Every wrinkle of its skin as it moved. and I could see it's muscles working . It was pretty incredible. Anyway I woke up while flying along watching the thing.

A past Lucid

Lucid Dream # 6 of 2007
This was the first time I tried doing the wake back to bed. It worked so well, that I had three Lucid Dreams back to back. But, All month long I was more intensely focused than I've been all this year. Then, Unfortunately the next day, something happened in my life That made me lose focus completely. And caused me to go into a pretty bad dry spell.

This was the first Lucid of the night. and immediately after laying back down to go to sleep. It was practically a wild.

I'm driving a semi truck down the on ramp to the freeway. As I get onto the freeway I start to lose control of the truck. The trailer starts to swing around to the side, and I'm struggling to get it under control when my perspective shifts. I'm now viewing the scene from above the truck. And I immediately become Lucid! I think it was the airborne perspective that triggered my Lucidity, But I'm not certain of that. I drift to the ground and land. I have the feeling that I've just entered the dream. And I just stand there for a moment waiting to wake up. Because that's what always happens when I get Lucid to soon. But I don't wake up, and I'm like oh, ok. I look around, and I think wow what amazing detail. There is a slight breeze and my attention is caught by a piece of cloth that is tumbling with the wind along side the freeway. The cloth is white and looks as if it has been torn from something. It's frayed at the edges, and is tumbling along with some dust and small pebbles. I'm standing off to the side of the freeway. Just a little ways up an embankment. And I'm near an overpass. There are a lot of cars speeding by. I then remember that I want to try spinning. I had just been reading about it in EWOLD. I tried it once years ago and didn't like it. But I decided I wanted to experiment with it a little more. I didn't give it much of a chance before. I kick off with one foot, and with my arms out. I spin around once and nothing really happens.
I try it twice more, and the only thing that happens is that I get dizzy, so I stop. Now, I decide to play around a little. I step out onto the freeway and face a rush of oncoming cars and trucks. I hold my ground and step right into the front grill of a speeding red truck. I feel a slight tug on my body, then pass right through the center of the truck. and I also plow right through a bunch of cars that are coming behind the truck.

For quite a while, I play around with walking head on into cars. then I'm just walking along enjoying myself, when I see a highway patrol car come driving along. I decide it could be fun to mess with the police. I look down on the ground for a rock. I find a fairly large one and pick it up. I throw it at the patrol car as it drives by. It turns around and comes back. The cop gets out of the car and walks towards me with his gun drawn. When he gets to me, I grab the gun out of his hand, and shoot myself three times in the chest. I then hand it back to him and say,"this is my dream world nothing can harm me here!" Then I say, "check this out." I step out into traffic again, and I do a round house kick into an oncoming car. But my foot hits it at an odd angle and knocks me down. I think it's kind of funny, and I get up and charge head first into a truck. For a while longer, I keep plowing through cars and trucks until I wake up.

This dream lasted about half an hour.

A Lucid Dream!

Lucid Dream # 45 of 2007
Best dreamsign noticed
I actually had kind of a low level Lucidity, but that only made it all the more intense.
This is a dream I had after doing the WBTB

I'm in the back seat of an SUV truck. There is a woman driving, and a young girl in the passenger seat. I have no idea who they are, or why I'm with them. were driving along a two lane highway. I have no idea where we are going. I'm looking out the window to my left, And I'm amazed and a little freaked out to see a giant skeletal T-Rex. It's like something you would see in a museum, only much bigger. It's just standing there frozen, not moving at all. And it's in a crouched down and hunched over position. As we pass by it, I turn to look out the back window. And as I look back at it, it's head slowly turns and stares Malevolently back at me.( that was a scary moment)

Now, realizing the thing is alive, I tell the woman driving that she had better step on it, because there is a monster coming for us. I look back again, and sure enough, here it comes running down the highway in our direction. The thing is so big, that our vehicle is probably not even as big as one of it's feet. "You had better hurry up!" I say. We do speed up a little, but its useless. The T-Rex skeleton is so fast, that it catches up to us in no time. It's now running along beside us. And to make matters worse, here comes another one running at us from the road ahead. The second one attacks our vehicle. My perspective shifts for a moment so that I'm watching from behind. The truck is a reddish brown color. And as I watch, the massive jaws of the second T-Rex slams down, and just misses the vehicle. I'm now back inside, and we are suddenly being lifted into the air. I can't actually see what has a hold of us. But I'm pretty sure it's the first T-Rex.

We are being lifted higher and higher, until it's like we are looking down from the hight of a skyscraper building. The truck is Tilting to the side, and then were suddenly flung into open air. The doors of the truck have swung open on one side. And I can see that the woman and the girl, have either fallen out or jumped. I'm wondering if it's going to be any better falling outside the truck or not. But, I then decide to just jump out. And I become Lucid. But it's a low level lucidity, and I forget I can fly. there is a large body of water below. I fall for a long time and then dive into the water. the water is shallow and I turn around quickly under the surface. My feet touch the bottom, and I crouch and spring upward. I explode out of the water and soar back into the sky. It's not like I'm flying. It's more like my volition from falling is continued, and I'm falling back up into the sky. then my momentum slows down, and I dive back down into the water. At this point I'm very exhilarated. I crouch and spring up again. And again, I soar back into the sky. I look down, and I can see the woman swimming in the water. I dive back down into the water. and swim over to her.

I need to mention now, that the T-Rex is no longer a T-Rex. It has transformed itself into a tower. The tower resembles the Ifal Tower, only it's made of white bone. And it's standing on nearby land. "let's climb to the top of the tower and jump off!" I say with excitement. I swim to shore and she follows me. We both start climbing side by side. We climb and climb for what seems like a pretty long time. When we get to a spot pretty near the top the woman jumps of backwards with no hesitation. I'm thinking she is pretty brave.

I'm suddenly hesitant and just a little afraid. The scene is extremely realistic. and the ground is sooo far away. And I have still forgotten I know how to fly. And the water now is a long ways off as well. in order to hit the water I will have to soar a long ways through the sky. I'm aware it's a dream and there is no real danger. But my lucidity is to low, and I'm having a hard time comprehending the idea. It doesn't help any that I just watched the woman jump, and she fell straight down like a rock. She is laying on the ground unmoving with limbs at odd angles. I can barely tell though, because she just looks like a tiny spot on the ground. Even though I'm nervous about it, I still have no doubt that I'm going to jump. I finally get up enough nerve and I leap into the air. and as I'm falling, I lose all fear and I'm thinking that I should have remembered to fall off backwards. I turn in the air so I'm falling backwards and looking up at the tower as I fall. I fall that way for a moment before waking up.

Two Lucid dreams!
Sunday/October/21/2007
Lucid Dream # 46 of 2007
A couple more short ones.
The second one, I was barely able to recall.
But a night full of action packed dreams.


This one had a Transformers theme to it. Been looking foward to watching the DVD, so I ended up dreaming about it.

The first thing I remember is that I was an Autobot. And in the form of a giant walking machine. and I was in some kind of facility. We were at war with the Decepticons,(Of course.) The Decepticons hacked into my computer mind, Taking control of my actions. And forcing me to betray my fellow Autobots. I was forced to use my security clearance, to gain access to something important that the Decepticons wanted. (I think it was supposed to be the cube thing, I don't remember what they called it.)

I get it without any problem, and leave the facility. But once outside I'm back to being just the puny human that I am. In a world torn by the war of giant machines. My act of stealing the cube thing, had triggered The final battle.

Now, humans are gathering from all around to watch the final battle. And I'm one of them. I'm running down a road trying to make it to the battle site. Along with many others. I'm running and running. there is beautiful mountain scenery, and I'm trying to figure out, just where exactly the final battle will take place.(The dream kind of shifts in a strange way here.) I come to a stair case leading downward. there are walls on each side of it. I'm carrying a square piece of plastic. It's just a little wider than my body if I hold it up. I'm not sure why, but I now have the idea I can fly using the plastic. I'm thinking, that if I jump up and fall straight down the stairs. There are air currents moving between the two walls that I can catch, and fly up and out of the staircase.

But, The stairs are full of people. And every time I try it, somebody gets in my way so it doesn't work. At first I'm patient waiting for a good chance. But every time I try, somebody steps into the way and blocks my attempt. I start to get angry, and I'm telling people to get out of my way. But their not listening. I start to get so pissed off that I'm using profanity. And I actually push one guy down the stairs to get him out of my way. Finally, people move and give me my chance. I Jump up and fall straight down the stairs. my piece of plastic I was going to use to catch the air currents. Becomes nothing more than a paper napkin, and it crumples in my hands and I fall to the ground.

Now, people start making disgusted noises, and talking shit about all the fuss I made just for that. I get up, and now things change a little again. I'm no longer on stairs, But it's like seats in a theater. with each row of seats lower than the next. And I'm at the top. All The seats are full, with the same people from the stairs." F This!" I say. then I jump up onto the backrest of the seat in front of me. And I start running across the tops of the backrests, not caring about the people sitting in the seats.

The place is now like a huge cathedral with a domed ceiling, and a stage like platform on the far side of the room. Once I get to the bottom row of seats, I leap into the air. And get Lucid instantly. I can hear people making surprised comments. as I do a long slow back flip through the air. I'm intending to land on the platform on the other side of the room. But, in mid back flip I change my mind, and I levitate to the ceiling. I stick to the ceiling spider-man style. As I have done many times before. I notice the amazing detail of the ceiling. I can see every bump in the surface of it. I then stand straight up on my feet, so that I'm standing upside down on the ceiling. I'm still a little angry at those people, and I want to just scare the crap out of them. I kind of lean backwards a little so that I can see them well. I try to make the most evil looking face that I can, and I just start laughing hysterically in a maniacal kind of way. As I do so, I think about the Lucid where I was crawling across cars on the freeway. and making faces at the people in their cars. And I thought about the comment The Cusp made about almost spitting his drink on his keyboard when he read that. But, I just hang there for a few more moments before waking up.

Boy, this dream really went from one thing, to something completely different.
Not sure how long a post I can make, so I'm going to start a new one for the next dream.

Lucid Dream # 47 of 2007
Same night as the above dream.
This one took me a few minutes of digging to recall at all.
Even so I can barely remember it.But I remember enough that I'm going to count it.

This was the coolest action fighting Lucid I ever had. Actually haven't had many fighting Lucids. I generally don't feel the need to fight when Lucid.

I don't remember becoming Lucid. The first thing I remember, is that I'm in some ninja style fight already Fully Lucid. This fight was just amazing. cooler than any martial arts fight in any movie. We were both the exact same skill level. And the action was so fast. it was like a dance of precision timing speed and agility. I remember being just kind of bug eyed with wonder, with how the fight was unfolding. being fully Lucid, I was not afraid at all. Only fascinated by it. My fighting skill was so great, I only had to keep half my mind on what I was doing. because the whole time, I was thinking of how I would describe each move and counter move in my journal. But, I just can't remember it well enough for that now.

The best thing I remember, is a part where a swarm of blades were flying straight towards me. (we both had many weapons, and swords too.) I leap into the air and do a flip over the blades as they come at me. It was the kind of flip, where you keep your body straight the whole time. And twist through the air. I land on my feet as the swarm of blades move past me. All the blades stick into the wall on the other side of the room. I remember thinking that it looked like something out of a cartoon. When a bunch of knives get thrown at a cartoon character. As soon as I land on my feet, I start using telekineses, to pull the blades out of the wall and into my hands. One at a a time the blades come to me fast in a stream. And in turn I'm throwing them back at my opponent just as fast. But, he is so skillful that he is using awsome acrobatic agility to avoid all the blades. Once the blades are all thrown, I pull a sword and we fight sword to sword up a staircase. And I lose the memory there. I may have woken up I'm not sure.

Lucid Dream # 48 of 2007
Animal attack dreamsign noticed!
Reality check induced Lucidity!

I'm up at the cabin, and taking the dog for a walk. We are walking along the road, and there are a bunch of cows in a field along the road. Dog starts barking at the cows, and running toward the fence. I notice that one of the cows is actually a huge black bull. It begins charging down a hill toward us. I'm not to worried because there is a barbed wire fence between us, and I figure the bull will stop at the fence. But the bull charges into the fence at top speed. The fence stretches outward, and the barbed wire gets pulled down a little. The bull kind of pops over the top of the wire and is free!(you can imagine whats going through my mind at that moment. I'm pretty much screwed!)

The Bull comes charging into the the road, I'm standing in the middle of it. The bull stops just a few feet in front of me. Head lowered, very mean angry look in it's eyes.
I know running is futile, so I raise my arms in the air and try to look as scary as I can.
I then start screaming at it, hoping I will scare it into running away. The bull backs up a step, but I can tell it's not convinced. I know it's about to attack me at any second. And I think, wait until I write in my journal that I got Attacked by a bull for real this time. But, I decide I should do a reality check. I pinch my nose and I can breath!
OK, I'm dreaming! I don't get to startled from being able to breath. As you can guess, I was hoping I would be able to. I'm not really afraid anymore, but a little tense. I still have to deal with this bull somehow. And the bull is quite intimidating looking. I decide to try what I wanted to do the next time I got Lucid during a bear attack. I looked the bull in the eye and said, "I love you! Why do you want to hurt me so bad?"

(You won't believe what happens next!) There is cow on the other side of the fence. It heard what I said to the bull, and the cows head and neck stretches across the distance. So that it's face is right before my own. It has long feminine eye lashes and is wearing bright red lipstick. And it begins mimicking me! (This is very cartoon like.) It turns it's head from side to side, and repeats "I love you why do you want to hurt me so bad?" And it says it in a really teasing kind of voice. It repeats it twice more, then the cows face shrinks back, and becomes just an ordinary cow grazing in the field .. I'm so surprised and caught off my guard, That I just shake my head and laugh at how strange that was.

Meanwhile, the bull is still standing there. I repeat to the bull,"Why do you want to hurt me so bad?" Instantly the bull shrinks, and transforms into an ordinary looking man. The man shrugs his shoulders and walks away.

Now, relieved and proud of how I handled that. I begin walking down the road. remembering the problems I've had with waking up from Lucids lately, I start to kind of panic because I don't want to wake up yet. I look around trying to decide what to do, to stay in the dream. I decide to spin, But the spin actually makes me wake up. I wake up in mid spin!

I'm very proud of this Lucid. For both the way in which I became Lucid. And how I was able to handle the situation.

Only slept two hours before going to work today. But managed to pull off a nice Lucid Dream anyway.

Reality check induced Lucidity

I'm having a work dream. My first clear memory is that I'm working and Twoshadows Is there working as well. She is quite tall, blond hair, and wearing a blue business style dress. I begin talking to her about Lucid Dreaming. And I'm thinking, that it's cool I'm working with someone that I can talk with about Lucid Dreaming.

I walk away for a moment, to do something work related. It suddenly strikes me as improbable that TS would be at my work. I pinch my nose, and I can breath!I'm quite surprised by it this time. The dream feels so real, that the only thing keeping me convinced I'm dreaming, is the fact that I can breath through a pinched nose. the only thing different, is that there are a lot of people I have never seen before. And of course, TS is there. I casually walk back to where TS is working. The whole time, I keep breathing through my pinched nose to stay sure it really is a dream. Once I get back to her. I quietly say, "Hey TS, were dreaming right now! Look I can breath through my nose." She doesn't seem real surprised. She does a reality check and can breath as well.We both start to walk off the job, and go find some adventure.

As were walking towards the exit, TS suddenly starts taking her cloths off! I'm very surprised at first. But, then I'm like, well no big deal. It can be fun to go around the dream world naked. As soon as that thought goes through my mind. I notice that everyone around us is taking their cloths off. I'm just standing there totally amazed, at how that one thought, caused everyone to get naked! Then, my boss comes around the corner, and he's naked too! He says, "You guys know it's a dream too, huh?" And he just keeps walking by.

The dream has taken on a life of it's own now, and I'm just watching in amazement as events unfold. Now, everyone seems to know it's a dream. And A mob of naked people go running for the exit door. Just about every one is outside now accept for one coworker. This one guy is still dressed, and he asks me,"wtf is going on!?"
"Don't you know?"I ask." This is a dream, and everyone is going outside to celebrate."
I tell him to pinch his nose and try to breath. He looks kind of confused, so I reach out and pinch his nose for him. He says" Oh," with a long dragged out oooooo. Just like he does in real life. Then he nods his head in understanding. And the two of us, are the last ones to leave the building.

Now, outside in the parking lot, everyone magically has there cloths back on. People are just hanging around talking and stuff. There is an excited happy feeling in the air. Everyone is all excited. TS, is hanging around some other people, just talking with them. I'm thinking it's kind of strange, that being the Lucid Dreamer she is. That she would just be sitting around doing nothing. I begin to levitate into the air. I rise to about roof top level. Then slowly float back down to the ground. Then, I begin doing hand springs across the parking lot. And I'm thinking about how much I enjoy being able to do that. Next, I run up the wall of a nearby building. I do a back-flip off the wall with a twist. And it's so cool! it's like I flip in slow motion with perfect control. And I land on my feet just right.

Then, I decide that I need to talk to TS. I walk over to her, and I ask her if she thinks the real TS will be upset if she hears she took her cloths off in my dream. And I ask her, if she thinks I should leave that part out of my journal. She gets a surprised look on her face. Then starts laughing, and says,"Oh I don't know about that." Then she starts talking to somebody else. I think about pressing her for a better answer, but then forget about it.

There is a building near by, with a cone shaped roof. I decide that I want to run up the roof of the building, and jump off the highest point. I easily jump up onto the roof, and it now seems much higher than it did a moment ago. I run up the slant of the roof, then leap into the air. (Boy do I ever love that feeling!) I begin flying across the parking lot.
I notice that the coworker. The one that I had pinched his nose earlier. He is levitating
around the parking lot, with a look of wonder on his face.

I fly on, and the parking lot gives way to the most beautiful landscape. I can't believe that I wasted so much time in the parking lot, when this place was so near by.
There are these hills that are very steep and high in some places. and in other places just kind of rolling along. they are all covered in a plush green carpet of grass. there are trees spread out here and there. All the leaves of the trees are in the most beautiful fall colors you can imagine. The combination of the shape of the land, and all the colors of it. Is just beyond words. You would have had to have been there to understand. I'm thinking about landing on one of the highest points, of one of the steep hills. when my alarm clock goes off and wakes me up.

Thanks for getting me Lucid Twoshadows!
Sorry about the nudity, That was totally out of my control.

Reality check induced Lucidity

I'm at an old restaurant job, and trying to do some prep work. Can't remember exactly what I was making. Every time I walk away to get something and come back.
somebody has moved my stuff, and is working in my spot. After about four times of this happening I start to get angry, and I say something about it. The boss is near by, and a few other people. People start giving me crap about being upset. I then lose my temper. And I shout,"I just want to know WTF is going on!" Then I repeat it.

It dawns on meThen, that maybe whats going on, is that I'm dreaming. Even though I don't really believe it at all. I pinch my nose and try to breath. And I can!I'm totally shocked by it. Even though I know I'm dreaming now, I have to do it a few more times, to be completely sure. In the meantime, while still doing reality checks. My boss has walked right up to me, and is getting in my face. He is pushing me up against the wall. And I'm standing there pinching my nose and breathing. (Lol, it's kind of funny.)
I'm completely positive it's a dream now.

My boss has me trapped against the wall, and his face is twisted in anger at me. he is wearing a white shirt, and he has black hair, with a trimmed black mustache and beard. I can't do anything with him in my way, and I suddenly get very sick of him. I pick him up by the waist, spin him around, and throw him over my shoulder. So that he is facing forwards. There is a big motorized mixing machine near by. The bowl is on it, and the bar that you connect the whip to, is spinning around really fast. (The whip is not attached.) I start to push him head first towards the whipping machine.(Not really intending to stick his head in it!)

I get him close to the machine, and he now has a look of pure terror on his face. I feel bad now, But I'm still angry at him. I push his face a little closer, then say "I'm just kidding! I'm not really going to stick your face in there! But this is a dream, and if I wanted to I could! You hear me!? If I wanted to, I could do it!" I set him down none to gently and start walking away. And I wake up.

That's the first time I was ever mad at a DC in a Lucid. Normally I forget about stuff like that, once I realize it's a dream and it doesn't matter. I think, it's just because he had me pinned up against the wall.

Really glad I didn't actually put him in that machine. I'd be feeling pretty shitty about myself right now if I had.

I sure am happy, I Finally trained myself to do reality checks in my dreams! It's such A perfectly simple way to know beyond doubt that your dreaming.

Random reality check!
In my nap, but counted as Sunday nights sleep.

I dream that I wake up from my nap. I pinch my nose and I can breath.
The house is kind of dark but I can see. I walk out to the living room. there is a family member sleeping on the couch. I decide to mess with them. I step up onto the couch, and start to walk on family member. Family member makes funny sounds, but does not wake up. I step down from couch, and turn the TV on. (TV works.) I walk over to the light switch, and turn on the light. (light switch works.) Family member wakes up. I get confused and think I'm awake now. I tell family member about how I was just dreaming, and how they were actually sleeping on the other couch a moment ago. And about how I was just walking on them. then I wake up for real. pinch my nose and can't breath now.

Lucid Dream # 52 of 2007
Best dreamsign noticed
pretty long dream, just going to skim over the highlights up to the point where I get Lucid.

The first thing I remember is being in the passenger seat of a car on the freeway. I'm the captive of some serial killer. The body of his last victim is in the back seat of the car. The killer is talking to me. I'm trying to talk him into letting me go. In his hand he is holding the weapon that he plans to eventually kill me with.

Eventually it becomes apparent to me, that there is no way he is going to let me go. I start to feel desperate, And I begin contemplating jumping from the moving car on the freeway. I'm wondering how badly I will be hurt if I jump out of the car. Finally, I decide I will take my chances.

Quickly, I open the door and just roll out and fall onto the road. I roll on the road a little bit, but it doesn't hurt at all. I look up and there is traffic coming at me, and I'm afraid I will be hit.

The first car sees me and begins slowing down. But the cars behind don't know I'm there. they move to pass the first car and come right towards me at speed. The first car has completely slowed down, so I manage to stay in front of that car and the others pass on by.

I get up and start waving my arms to the car that has slowed down. Meanwhile the serial killer has stopped his car and is coming back. I flag the car down, and there are two girls in it. I tell them I need help because there is some crazy guy after me.
they motion for me to get in their car, so I do. we drive away, and the serial killer begins chasing us. There is a little bit of a chase but we eventually get away.

Eventually we end up at the girls apartment. They offer to let me stay there the night. but I remember my dog is at home and I need to get back. I leave the apartment and walk outside. There is a grassy hill with some holes in the side of it. I see this animal walking along. I recognize it as a beaver, only it doesn't have any tail. It looks more like a big woodchuck. But I know It's a beaver. It lives in the hill.

It seems like it's getting to close to me, So I try to scare it away. But instead It comes after me! I see these two huge front teeth, like a cartoon beaver would have. And knowing what those teeth can do to trees. I'm suddenly very afraid of what it could do to my leg.

It comes at me and I start kicking it, trying to keep it from biting my leg. When suddenly I think, Oh my god, I'm finally having another animal attack dream! I get so excited that I forget all about the beaver. I see my sister and her boyfriend and I start telling them the story about how I have this online dream journal. And my animal attack dreams. And blah blah blah. And about the Lucid bull dream. And how I finally have another animal attack to write about.

(NOW, HOW I CAN KNOW I'M HAVING AN ANIMAL ATTACK DREAM AND NOT BE LUCID IS BEYOND ME!)

Eventually I start walking towards home, and I find a bus stop. I wait for a moment and a bus pulls up. I get on the bus and pay him, then sit down. We are now going through a down town city area. There is lots of backed up traffic, but the bus driver doesn't care about that. He just suddenly goes nut's. he starts crashing into cars and plowing them out of the way. driving up onto sidewalks and crashing though news paper stands and stuff. I hear him shout, "Their laying us all off!" I realize, now that he is a disgruntled bus driver gone berserk.

His driving gets crazier and crazier by the moment. Until we eventually go crashing through some construction site. we hit something that causes us to catch air, and the bus just starts flying. Here my perspective shifts and I'm now sitting on the roof of the bus. I see some leaning cement wall and I'm thinking we will come down on it like a landing ramp.

But the bus over shoots the ramp. Past the ramp, the landscape falls away into a completely new dreamscape. And I'm so high in the sky, that I instantly become Lucid!

Now, the bus below me seems to be a bit smaller. I have one leg over each side of it and I'm riding it. I look down and far below are some people. I yell down to get their attention. There is a black bald man that looks up and points at me. And some others look up as well. Feeling silly now, I start pretending I'm riding one of those mechanical bulls at a bar. I have one hand in the air and bucking around. Now, without me even noticing the transition, the bus actually becomes a mechanical bull shape. And is now the same size as one. I must be thousands of feet above the ground now and I'm free falling.

I stand up on the bull, and it's spinning through the sky. I start jumping up and down on it. And I then decide to do a hand stand, and then with one hand. I'm just having fun putting on a show for the people below as I fall.

The landscape below has become very incredible. It looks like something I would imagine ancient Rome to look like. White Colosseum type buildings. With the fancy pillars and balconies. I am now back in time! I fall off the bull, and I'm just falling for a moment with the bull tumbling beside me. I notice I'm nearly to the ground, and disappointed. Then I remember I can just fly back up into the sky and fall again if I want.

I grab onto the bull and step up onto it. I begin using the bull to sky surf around. I examine my surroundings, And I think about landing somewhere and practicing some skills I've been wanting to relearn to do in my Lucids. But I dismiss the idea, because I'm having to much fun playing around. And don't feel like doing any tasks. I start surfing higher into the sky, when I notice A building with a balcony.

On the balcony, are to spectacularly beautiful looking women. I swear they are practically glowing with beauty. And the way they are dressed, like old time royalty or something. All I can say is wow!

I surf down below the balcony, then levitate upwards until I'm level with them.Then say, " Well hello there ladies." But, I then fall off my bull! And it goes spinning away. I dive for it, and catch it with no problem. I then surf back over to the balcony, and the ladies seem impressed that I was able to recover so quickly. I talk with them for just a moment before waking up.

Lucid Dream # 53 of 2007
spontaneous Lucidity!

The first thing I remember is exiting an apartment, and walking down the hall. There is a Japanese lady that I recognize as the land lady. As I walk by, she is running this line of what looks like white yarn, between the two walls at the top of a stairway, that leads down to a lower level. somehow I am aware, that she is making some kind of supernatural barrier against evil forces.(I think I got that from the movie Skeleton Key.)

I continue on down the hall. I am on my way to some other room. I don't remember why I wanted to go there. I get to the other room and the door is locked. So I head back to the apartment. On my way back, I stop at the top of the stairway. the stairway goes down to a landing, and then turns right around a corner and continues down. I can't see around the corner, But I hear something strange. Something that sounds very scary to me, is making it's way up the stairs.

I look down at the floor, and the white line barrier is no longer there. I get a little scared and run the rest of the way back to my apartment. I pull open the door and step inside. There is a Japanese man in the room. I begin to shut the door behind me when Lucidity spontaneously washes over me.

I can hardly believe how easy I just became fully Lucid. Excited and a little jittery, I try not to let myself get to excited. I'm a little nervous about losing the dream because of the last two I lost right away. I decide to finish closing the door and I lock it. I turn back and the Japanese man is still standing there. I'm actually in some really odd dream scenario of a supernatural Japanese horror movie. The lighting in the room is a strange dull green color. The whole dream is very creepy, But, fully Lucid I'm not even the slightest bit afraid.

A strange silliness comes over me. I raise my hands in the air, and begin playing air guitar. And I start singing/chanting, "This is a dream, this is a dream dream yeah!" over and over. In a kind of heavy metal way. I want to make sure I do something fun before I wake up. So I run across the room up the wall, across the ceiling, and down the wall on the opposite side.

I make three fast loops around the walls and ceiling. All the while playing my air guitar and singing my dumb song. And also as I'm doing my loops I keep seeing bright flashes of white light. They seem to be coming from outside the apartment. So between the green lighting, the flashes of light, and my little metal song while doing loops across the ceiling. It all fits together in an odd way to make an interesting experience.

The horror theme is still going on. After the third loop I stop in the middle of the room.
The Japanese guy is still there, and he just looks terrified out of his mind. he starts to stutter. "I sa. sa. saw them." Then I say, " Oh? you saw "them" huh? how awful for you." This is supposed to be a scary dream, but I find it quite humorous.

I turn to leave the apartment, and I notice blood seeping out of one wall near the ceiling and running down the wall. in typical horror movie fashion. I just kind of take note of it, then ignore it. I then head toward the apartment door. The door bursts open before I get there. And Two big Japanese guys in suits come rushing into the room.

I throw my hands up into the air, in a semblance of surprise and fear. And I say, "Oh my god! You must be "them"! Then I just start laughing. I was getting such a kick out of this dream. But then I wake up.

Wish I would have had more time to explore this freaky scenario. It would have been cool to run into some of the things they have in Japanese horror movies. But seeing how I wasn't afraid. The dream probably would have changed into something else.

Lucid Dream # 54 of 2007
Reality check induced Lucidity
Shared dreaming experiment Lucid

I give Pj the credit for this Lucid. Because the real Pj, literally caused me to have this dream.

The dream takes place at a town house I used to live as a kid. The first thing I remember is that Moonbeam, and a man I assume to be Pj, because he is the head of the shared dreaming experiment, is at the town house with me. They have all this electronic equipment set up on tables in the kitchen. It's kind of like, when you watch a show about a haunted house, and the ghost hunters bring all their gear in with them.

There is another man there now. he walks up and asks what we are doing. I say," We go into dreams and do fun stuff like this." I then reach up and pinch my nose. And I can breath.I'm Like WTF, this is a dream now? I'm now 99% sure I'm dreaming,
but I had only pinched my nose for a second. The man I was talking to, has walked away, and out the front door. I follow him out. Once outside, I do another reality check to make sure. Yup, I'm definitely dreaming for sure! The man is walking away and I yell to him."Hey, we go into dreams and do fun stuff like this!"

I then begin doing hand springs across the yard and all the way to the road. Once I get to the edge of the road. I spring into the air, get into a tuck position and begin spinning into farwards flips. I kind of hover in the air and spin like a ball several times.
Then land on my feet in the road. I then decide I'm going to do cartwheels back up to the house.

But now gravity has become very realistic. I do probably the worst dream cartwheel ever. About as good as if it were real life. I try to immediately go into another one but I just fall down. I give up on that. I get up and run back up to the house. I have to tell Moonbeam and Pj that we are in a dream right now.

I'm all excited, and I pull open the door real fast and run into the house. I run into the kitchen, and Moonbeam, and Pj are there doing something with their equipment. Taking electronic measurements of the dream world or something.

I say,"Hey you guys, this is a dream right now!" They both look over at me, and Moonbeam says something about she has to check one of her computers to confirm it.. I say, "No trust me this is a dream. Do a reality check right now!"

Neither of them do reality checks, but they both believe me now. Moonbeam gets up and starts doing perfect cartwheels out into the living room. I say," Aren't you glad I was paying attention!" And I follow her out to the living room. I notice this ceramic figurine of a mountain lion on a shelf.( which I actually have in real life.) Moonbeam has sat down on the couch now.

I say, "Hey Moonbeam, check out the detail of this thing. And I pick up the figurine off the shelf.( This is a pretty magical moment, because I actually believe that this is the real Moonbeam and we are both Lucid in the same dream.) I carry the figurine over to her and I sit down on the couch. I hand Moonbeam the figurine, and she turns it around in her hands examining it.

Then, to my complete astonishment. She opens her mouth, and stuffs the figurine into her mouth, and begins to swallow it. I almost lose lucidity because I get worried that if this isn't really a dream, she may hurt herself. But, then she has the whole thing swallowed no problem. I laugh, because I know she did that just to mess with me.
Moonbeam laughs too, and pats her stomach. Then, I start to worry about how much time I have before I wake up. And of course, that makes me wake up.

Note to self. Stop thinking about waking up while in Lucid Dreams!

Lucid Dream # 55 of 2007
Spontaneous Lucidity!

I don't remember much of the dream. I'm in a mall when I become Lucid. I'm assuming it was spontaneous. I don't remember anything abnormal going on. And I didn't do any reality checks or even question it much. I just knew. But I'm immediately over come by sexual desire. I run around the mall a little. And I then approach the first attractive female DC I come across. She is near the entranceway of one of the mall shops. I don't say anything to her, I just begin kissing her. She does not resist at all, she responds to my advances. there is a few moments of making out. And I'm very fascinated by how pleasantly realistic her lips feel on mine. We would have ended up having sex right there, but I woke up!

I generally always wake up during sexual Lucids. But I usually get farther than that lol.
I actually went to sleep with the intention of interrogating a DC. But there was only one thing on my mind in this Lucid.

But one more Lucid for the last night of November!

Partial Lucidity
Best dreamsign noticed then dismissed!

I had this fat ski. It was a lot like a snowboard, but I was thinking of it as a ski. I take it to the top of a hill. The hill has no snow, it's all grass. I start skiing down, and I get going pretty good. I hit a jump at the bottom of the hill, and get so much air I'm flying.
instantly I'm Lucid "Woo hooo, this is a dream," I shout. Then I think to myself, cool all I have to do, to have a Lucid Dream, is ski down a hill and hit a jump. I then get confused, and I wonder how I could be in a dream just from hitting a jump lol! I then pretty much lose Lucidity. I ride the momentum through the air on my ski and I easily land on a patch of grass.

Even though I'm thinking I'm in the real world I'm very psyched and excited. I see another small hill that could work like a jump. I get a running start, and just before getting to the hill, I drop the ski to the ground and jump on. I hit the hill and shoot straight up into the sky. As I gain altitude I lean backwards into end over end back flips.(that was pretty cool, I normally do that while free falling in Lucids.)

Once I reach the peak of my height, I stretch out like a sky diver does and start free falling. I start thinking about my fear of heights, And I think that it's so cool that my experience with Lucid Dreaming has helped me get over that. And I'm not afraid at all.
Though I am kind of wondering how I could fall from this kind of height without being harmed.

I then start using the ski to fly with. I'm standing on it and I'm able to catch air currents, to gain more altitude. I sky surf around a little then land on the branch of a tall tree. I see a guy that I work with, and I shout down,"hey look at me!" He points up and says,"Hey look out!" I look up and see this strange looking helicopter. It has a square passenger box like a cable care or something. And it is filled with people.

I jump off the tree, and catch some air currents. All the people are staring at me out the window. I decide to mess with them and I surf up near the windows and shout, "hey you forgot me! I have my ticket! I have my ticket!" While frantically waving my arms. While doing this I wake up.

I'm so annoyed that I lost this Lucid. With all the Lucids I've had lately I should have had this one in the bag for sure!
It was a lot of fun anyway though.

I slept eight hours, and had a long crazy night of really intense dreams.
One really scary nightmare about a monster from deep within the earth. It came out of a cave and was hunting a group of us. I spent most of my time trying to hide from it.
And I could always hear the horrible screams of the people the monster caught up to and killed.

I nearly became Lucid a couple of other times too. I don't have time to write all of them down.
