Lucid Dream # 57 of 2007
Reality check induced Lucidity
Basic Lucid task Accomplished

I was having an adventure dream about trying to rescue some people that were being held captive in some building. Eventually there is a point where I'm climbing the side of the building trying to get people out of an upper level window. I get one person out, then decide I should get him out of here before trying for others. There is a large grassy parking lot (Just an open field really) and I have a van parked somewhere. I bring the person to my van then start going back for others.

On the way back to the building, I randomly start thinking about whether or not I'm dreaming. I think, Hmm, this is an unfamiliar place. And this is kind of an abnormal thing I'm doing. I decide to do a reality check. I pinch my nose and I can breath!
Fully Lucid now, I look around in amazement at how real everything is. It's a little windy, and I just stand there for a moment enjoying the way the wind feels, and trying to decide what I want to do next.

Then I remember the Lucid Task. There are plenty of people in the parking area. they are all dressed strange. They are wearing old fashioned Amish style clothing. But they are all raggedy looking like they are homeless people are something. I walk up to the closest person to me. (Which is a woman) I ask her if she can tell my my dream name.
She says, "your dream name is Ruth" "Ruth!" I reply. " Can't you give me a better dream name that Ruth?" "No" she says, then she walks away.

Annoyed now, I'm determined to find a better dream name. I see another Woman.
"Excuse me, Can I ask you a question?" She walks over to me. feeling a little mischievous now, I ask her if I can do something sexual with her. She simply says "no" then starts to walk away. (I was hoping for a little more interesting reaction.)
I grab her arm and turn her back to me. I say, "I have a better question though, really.
"What is my dream name?" She says," I don't know." then walks away.

I walk around asking everyone. they either say they don't know, or they have no idea what I'm talking about. I see a little boy on a red tricycle. I squat down next to him. when he looks over at me, he is so startled that he falls over backwards, tricycle and all.
I laugh and move on.

I think about my next task I had in mind. I want to go hunting for these aware DC's I've been hearing of. And see what their all about. I look around at everyone. No one seems different, or hostile, or remarkable in any way. Other than the fact that they all seem very real. Nobody has tried to touch me. But I have touched quite a few of them trying to get their attention.

I see another lady. I ask her if she knows what my dream name is. She says " your dream name is, She says my real name!" "That's not my dream name! that's my real name.!" "How do you know my real name anyway?" She just walks away. Now I'm feeling like I'm just wasting my Lucid. Though it is entertaining pestering these DC's

I ask a couple more times with no results before I wake up. So I guess my dream name is Ruth.

Lucid Dream # 58 of 2007
Malfunctioning car dreamsign noticed
Reality check induced Lucidity

I'm driving along some two way road. It's kind of a country setting. A lot of open fields around, not to many houses. My car begins to veer to the left, into the oncoming lane. (In real life my alignment is off a little. And if I let go of the steering it will start veering to the left like that.) I turn the steering wheel to the right, But the car keeps going to the left. So I turn it more. I turn the steering wheel around and around to the right. But my car keeps going left! I finally give up, and let the car go all the way to the left, across the oncoming lane, off the road and into a field.

I stop the car and get out. Disgusted with my malfunctioning steering, I begin walking back to where ever it is I was coming from. I have my dog with me as well. As I'm walking I'm thinking about how that's just like something that would happen in my dreams. Purely out of habit, because I've been doing so many reality checks all week.
I reach up and pinch my nose. And I can breath!Totally unexpected, I really didn't think I was dreaming at all. I'm completely stunned by how real everything is. This does not feel like a dream. it's as real as real can get.(It's funny no matter how many Lucids I have. I never get over that. I'm always so stunned by the reality of it.)

I look down at the leash in my hand. And I look at my dog walking happily along, checking everything out. I think about setting her loose, But I'm a little reluctant even though I know it's a dream. I decide to try and levitate. But I can't do it. (Just like I described in Moonbeams journal. I'm having a hard time getting over how real it feels.)
I see a black trailer just sitting near by. I try to reach out with my mind and levitate that. But that's not working either. I get funny feeling, but thats about it.

I reach down and run my hand through the long weedy grass of the field. And I marvel at the coarse scratchy feel of it. I pinch my nose again to double check if I'm dreaming. Yup, definitely a dream! Since I'm having trouble levitating I try an old trick I used to do in the past. I jump into the air, and try to catch myself with my mind as I fall.
It works, and I hover cross legged a couple of feet above the ground for a little bit.

A little ways away, I can see what looks like a trailer home. And I see two girls, brunettes, walking towards it. I'm curious as to what it looks like inside the trailer home. So I set myself down and begin walking that way. I notice another girl a blond sitting in a chair outside. She is doing something with her hands. I don't remember what exactly. Maybe she has cards or something.

The first two girls walk by, and enter the trailer. I walk up to the blond in the chair, and I say."Hey, your pretty cute." She says,"yeah, no kidding, huh." She gets up and walks away.( I have the opposite problem as Moonbeam, DC's just walk away from me.) I follow her as she goes into the trailer. I decide to experiment more with pestering her. I ask her if she can give me a little strip show. She keeps walking away, but she says, "Oh I don't know." I keep following her, and trying to talk her into it.

After a little bit of encouraging, She starts responding. She starts moving kind of flirtatiously. And begins removing her cloths. Even as she is still walking away from me. We are walking through different rooms. Until we end up someplace that resembles a garage. She is nude now, and I ask if I can have sex with her. She climbs up onto a work bench and lays across it on her stomach. I put my hand on her back, near her shoulders. And slide my hand all the way down her body. And I wake up!

Barely even touched her and I woke up. It wasn't from excitement either. I was very calm. And was not even planning to try and have sex with her. This was more of an experiment to see what I could talk her into.

Two short Lucids last night
Monday/December/24/2007/
Lucid Dream # 59 of 2007
Random reality check induced Lucidity
this is the first dream of the night

The first thing I remember is that I'm with some Oriental kid named yung. I'm not even sure how I know his name but I do. He is upset and looking for something. I don't know what it is he is looking for. It has to do with what ever was going on before my recall of the dream.

We are on this stair case, that ascends in a circular manner, from landing to landing.
it's not a spiral, it's more a square. The stair case is inside a tall building, and the outside wall near the stair case is made of glass. So that you can see the view of the land beyond. But at the moment, there is a thick fog that is obscuring the view, it's rather gloomy out the window.

We climb several levels, then stop. I'm trying to see the view through the fog, when I suddenly notice the fog has cleared and the sun is shinning. And the scene that has been displayed is just breath taking. There is a mountain and canyon landscape that stretches far to the horizon. There are patches of snow hear and there, in all the right places. Even though they are mountains. the spot that we are standing is like thousands of feet above them. I'm very emotionally moved by the vision. I look over at yung and say," wow, that's so beautiful my soul wants to weep!"

I notice that yung is still upset. I say to him, " did you notice how the fog cleared and the sun came out just as we came up here? Maybe it's some kind of sign meant to cheer you up?" Then I nudge him in the arm with my elbow and say,"Or maybe this is a dream, eh?" in a joking manner. "Well lets find out!" I reach up and pinch my nose, And I can breath!Lucid! I wish I could have seen the expression on my face at that moment. I'm sure my eyes went pretty wide."OMG, yung, this is a dream! I can breath through my nose!" I tell him to do a reality check. but he doesn't seem to need to. Now, There is no longer a glass wall separating us from the awsome landscape beyond the railing of the landing we are on. We are far above the mountain scene.
Yung looks over to me and calmly says,"I want to jump over that railing."

I think, that sounds like a wonderful idea."I'm all for that!" I reply. I then take a couple running steps, and leap head first with my hands out in front of me like a diver over the railing. My body passes about half way over the rail when I wake up.

Comments
That was even more frustrating than waking up from last nights Lucid. I was so looking forward to the flight over that scene.

Lucid dream # 60 of 2007
same night as above. Another random reality check.
Note: hours later, I'm dreaming about the above Lucid. And become Lucid again.

I'm now outside the same building as in the above dream. I'm on the left side of the building. But, I'm far enough to the front that I can see the glass wall of the front of the building. There is what seems like a couple miles of open flat land. which eventually runs into a wall of mountains.

There is somebody with me.(Not the same person as before.) I begin telling him about the dream I had about this place. I point up to the glass wall on the building. And tell him that I was on some observation deck up there. The DC says."Oh yeah, I've been up there before." We begin walking to the back side of the building, where there is a parking lot. As we walk, I continue to describe the dream from above. I am so emotionally moved by the memory of the mountain scene. That I'm nearly in tears describing it.

I then describe, how I reached up and pinched my nose as a reality check. And I actually do it as an example. And again I can breath!Lucid again! I tell the DC, "this is a dream!" I show him that I can breath through my nose. He doesn't seem to impressed. We are in the parking lot now. I jump up on the hood of one of the cars,
and do a back flip off of it. I tuck into a tight ball, then land on my feet perfectly. To the DC I say."See, I could never do that in real life."

Now he seems intrigued. I jump back up onto the hood of the car again and do another perfect back flip. The DC tries to do it, But he falls flat on his back. I laugh and jump onto the hood and do another back flip. I do it a couple of more times before waking up.

It's now nine thirty in the morning. I decide to try to sleep just a little longer hoping to get Lucid again. I lay there for a minute and enter a dream scene. I'm at work, and I'm compelled by the urge to do a reality check. I do and I can breath! But at that fragile stage of sleep, it just wakes me up.

I fall back to sleep, enter the same work scene. I look at my watch and it says 5:00 pm. No way, I should not be at work this late. I pinch my nose and I can breath!
but again it's to fragile a stage of sleep and it wakes me up. I'm just happy I had the presence of mind to do the reality checks. I gave up then and just got out of bed.

Lucid Dream # 61 of 2007
Random reality check induced Lucidity

This is the most boring Lucid I ever had lol. I pretty much wasted it.

I must have had some kind of false awakening, where I got up and went to the bathroom. because the first thing I remember is walking back to my bed through the dark gloom of the house. I do a reality check and I can breath.I'm strangely confused and kind of disoriented though. because I'm not used to getting Lucid during false awakenings. Or, in such a familiar setting as my own house. I keep thinking that I have woke up. or about to wake up. So I keep doing reality checks. And I'm like nope didn't wake up yet. I actually sit down on the edge of my bed and wait to wake up. every few seconds I think maybe I'm awake now. So I do a reality check to see. But, nope I'm still dreaming. slowly it dawns on me, that I'm not going to wake up right away, and that I should actually do something rather than just sit here waiting to wake up. So I decide I should go outside and find something to do. So I get up and start to get ready to go outside. I start getting dressed and putting my shoes on lol.
Who cares about that stuff in a dream. I think I may have lost Lucidity and went into another dream. Because after that I remember something about being on a cruise ship. I'm not sure if I woke up in between or not.

Lucid Dream # 1 of 2008
? induced Lucidity
I had this dream after a well focused Ten minute WBTB. It could have even been a WILD for all I know. Not the best Lucid though, for the start of the year. but I'm just glad I had it, because I worked extremely hard all day to induce it.

Fully Lucid, I'm watching the scene like a movie dream. I don't remember anything before this moment. There is a woman in a parked car. She has two kids that have been locked in the trunk of the car by somebody. Somehow I know they had been kidnapped. But the kidnapper is now nowhere to be seen. The woman gets out of the car and walks around to the trunk. I'm somehow aware, that the woman suddenly becomes aware, that she is in a dream. She begins trying to open the trunk but it's locked tight. I watch as she pinches her nose, to confirm that she is dreaming. And I can actually feel that sensation of breathing through a pinched nose, as if I did it myself.

Then, I am no longer watching like a movie. I take the womans place as if I'm the woman. But, I don't think I have her body. And I don't feel like the kids are mine.
But I'm compelled to continue freeing the children from the trunk. I'm trying to pull the trunk open, but it's still locked too tight. I think about the fact that I don't really need to do this, because it does not matter it's a dream. But I have a strong desire to complete this task before moving on to anything else.

I can't get the trunk open normally. So I stick my fingers in the crack on the side of the trunk, and begin peeling the metal back. Until there is an opening large enough for the children to escape. There are two boys inside, and they begin climbing out as I wake up.

Lucid Dream # 13 of 2007
Best dreamsign noticed.

I was a part of some kind of military organization. We were flying in some type of military plane. And we were in the middle of a war. We were on some specific mission. there were rockets being fired at our airplane. I knew that we would be hit, and the plane would explode at any moment. I was preparing to jump out and parachute to the ground. I was decked out in all sorts of commando gear, like in the movies. The hatch on the plane was open. I jumped with no hesitation. I was more afraid of being caught in the exploding plane when it exploded, than jumping.

The moment I jumped out of the plane I became instantly Lucid. I flew around the plane. Then I flew back inside. Back inside the plane, the environment changed. But, I didn't even take notice of the change. I'm now in some house, and I still have my commando gear on. I remember walking down some halls shouting" this is a dream!"
I'm carrying this really cool futuristic looking science fiction style machine gun. I realize that I have no need to carry this gun around in my dream. (I have no need of guns when Lucid) I take a moment to admire the detail of the thing. It's so cool looking that I'm reluctant to leave it behind. But I don't want to carry it around for nothing either.( I didn't even think of trying to fire it, to see what would happen.) So I drop the thing and move on.

There seems to be a lot of girls in the house I'm in I decide to indulge in a little fun with them.(CENSORED) I didn't really have sex with any of them. But I did play around with them a little. I stopped myself though, for fear of waking up.

I suddenly realize I need to pee! (I never had to pee in a Lucid Dream before.) I decide that since this is my dream I can pee anywhere. So I start peeing right on the floor in the room I'm in. (It's kind of childishly fun.) After a moment, A man comes walking by an sees me. He is angry at me for peeing on the floor. I say "it's no big deal, this is just a dream!" "Yeah right!" the man replies. Then I start thinking, that maybe this is not a dream anymore. So I do a little test. I jump into the air and try to catch myself with my mind before falling to the floor. I easily make myself hover in the air. So I know for a fact I'm dreaming.

I fly along and follow the man that was angry with me. I follow him down a stairway and into another room. I say to him, " see look at me, I'm flying! I know it's a dream."
Their is also some lady in the room. I can tell that she believes me. There is also a child. I start to mess with one of the kids toys. The man runs over, and takes the toy from me. I then, reach out with my mind using telekinesis I make the child float through the room. the man comes running at me, with the intent to attack me.

I reach out with my mind again. Using telekineses, I stop the man in his tracks. Then I force him to walk backwards and out of the room. I can hear the woman laughing. She thinks it's funny that I made him do that. Once the man is around the corner and out of sight. I release him. he walks back into the room. He goes into the kitchen, and begins washing dishes. I say to him," This is my world, And I'm a god here. For some reason I'm bothered that the man is so upset with me. I tell him about how hard I have been working to get to this point. And soon I will be able to change environments with a thought.
( At the time of this dream, I had been getting Lucid a lot. Then things started going down hill for a while.) I talk to the man a few moments longer before waking up.

Somewhat successful wild
I enter a dream fully Lucid. I was able to keep my mind aware by thinking no words at all. and just listening for sounds. I find myself in a scene where I'm talking to some woman. At the time, I believe her to be some kind of spirit from another realm or something. I don't remember much about the beginning of it. But I remember asking her if she can come into one of my dreams later in the night, and help me get Lucid.
Then I'm moving really fast bacwards.( Hard to describe this part.) It's like I'm floating backwards away from the spirit woman I was talking to. And different scenes are flying past me. Like I'm moving through them. the last thing I see, is a wall with a framed picture on it. I had just exited the picture backwards through a tear in the canvas. I slowly continue to float backwards. And I can see the eyes of the spirit woman within the canvas, looking back at me. I stare at it for a moment thinking what a strange WILD this is. Knowing there is another world within that picture on the wall.
then I slide back awake.

Never added this one to my Lucid count. but I thought it was interesting enough to put in my Lucid thread.

Cool, travelling like that with things flying past. I can imagine that happening in a WILD.

Whoops--wrong journal! Sorry I'll have some one delete this I don't know how.

No big deal really.

Yeah, that was a pretty interesting experience.

Deceased father dreamsign noticed
Reality check induced Lucidty
Basic Lucid Task Completed

I'm riding through the city on this red and white, crotch-rocket motorcycle. It's a pretty long and fun dream, racing around and this powerful bike. I'm pulling wheelies and driving crazy through traffic. All the while watching out for cops.

Eventually I pull into the parking lot of this place. I'm not sure what it is. At one point I think it's an Auto body shop. But, then I get the feeling later, that it's a restaurant. My brother is there. And I see my dad walking across the parking lot also. (who had died not all that long ago) He is wearing his goofy farmer overalls, and funny looking cap. He even has a handkerchief hanging out of his back pocket. I'm a little confused, because I
think my dad is dead. And I'm wondering how he can be here. I start thinking, that I must have been mistaken. And that, he had not died after all.

I think about how good it is to see him again. But, then he almost gets hit by a car, and I see him fall over. I'm thinking, great, just when I find out my dad isn't really dead, he is going to be killed by a car. But he gets up and is ok. I start racing around the parking lot on my motorcycle. And I start riding wheelies around the building that is there, trying to show off.

After a couple of times around the building, I start thinking about my dad again. I'm confused, because I'm sure that he had died before. Then I think, maybe he is here because this is a dream. So I pinch my nose and I can breath!Lucidity washes over me. But I'm shocked, and having a hard time believing it completely. So I keep pinching my nose, and I can breath every time. I dump the motor cycle. There is a guy and a girl standing by the front door, of what I'm now thinking of as a restaurant. My Lucidity is still a bit shaky. I'm still a little doubtful. I mention to the two that I think this is a dream. The girl says, "yes this is a dream ,I know it is." I then say, "well if this is a dream, I can get away with doing this." I reach down and give her rear end I nice squeeze. She jumps back and says. "Hey stop that! I'm not a part of your dream! I'm a real person."

Now, I'm starting to doubt if this is a dream again. this is just to real. When I squeezed the girl she felt completely real. Even the feeling of her clothing on my hand felt as real as real can be. I pinch my nose and I can breath still. I keep doing it. I'm not sure if I'm getting my nose pinched right. I enter the building, and I'm in a corridor filled with people. My brother is there as well. I'm still pinching my nose trying to prove to myself it's a dream. But it's as if my nostrils are too big to pinch closed completely. I am pretty sure it's a dream. But I want more proof, because I can remember the last Lucid I lost, because I didn't believe the nose RC. I don't want it to happen again. I start thinking, what other kind of RC can I do in combination to confirm it.

I think about trying a back flip off the wall, or trying to jump into the air and float. Then I remember the putting your finger through your hand RC. I've never done it before. So I decide to try it. I push my finger into my palm. It feels pretty solid, but I keep pushing hard and turning my finger trying to drill it into my hand. My finger begins sinking slowly into my palm. Perfect, No more doubts, I'm dreaming for sure. I tell a couple other people to do reality checks. And I tell my brother it's a dream.

Then I remember both Pj's task, and the Lucid Task of the month. I want to do Pj's Task. But, I feel I have time to do both tasks. they are pretty simple questions. I ask my brother What he thinks my new years resolution should be? He asks, "what difference does that make? What the hell kind of question is that.? I begin explaining to him about dream views. And that it's just a task they set to do in a dream. Even as I'm explaining it I realize, there is really no point to explain. But I wake up as I'm doing so.

Comments
I noticed that other people have completed the task without getting an answer. So I guess I completed it too.

There was a little more interaction with the DC's that I didn't describe nothing really important. But I was fascinated by there responses. Because a lot of people seem to be having problems with DC's. My DC's reactions to me were very realistic. And they seemed intelligent enough. It was one of the things making me question if I was really dreaming.

Lucid Dream # 3 of 2008
Reality check induced Lucidity

I have no memory at all, up to the point where I do a reality check. I remember feeling like I needed to do an RC though, So I pinch my nose and I can breath.I'm a little surprised by it, but not overly surprised. That leads me to believe, I must have already suspected I may be dreaming before doing the RC. I have no idea why though.

Again I want A little more proof though, just to double make sure. So I push my finger into the palm of my hand again. And my finger begins slowly sinking into my hand. I forgot that I wanted to try pushing my finger completely through my wrist next time.

I enter the house I was already on my way into. I was outside when I did the RC. I completely forgot about all of my goals. I have some personal goals I really want to practice, as well as the interrogation tasks. Once entering the house, the first thing I decide to do, is get into some sexual activity that I'm not going to describe. That lasted for a little while, I'm surprised I didn't wake myself up.

I keep doing reality checks to stay sure I'm dreaming. I start going crazy in the living room doing flips off of walls and furniture. Though I'm not doing to well with it. half the time I just fall on the floor lol. But I'm having fun anyway. There is a girl in the living room watching TV, That I'm trying to show off for. I stand up on the back of the couch and dive off. I land on my hands and stay that way doing a hand stand for a moment. Then I do kind of a push up motion and spring myself back into the air. And I land back on the couch on my feet.

"Pretty strong, eh." I say. the girl seems impressed by that one, and says "yeah."
I mention something about this being a dream. I don't remember my exact words.
The girl looks kind of confused, and says." wait a minute, this is a dream?" I say "yeah pretty amazing that none of this is real huh?" We both look around the room. And it's a perfect living room. On one side of the room. There is a piano and a kid playing with it. And the TV is on. I don't remember whats on the TV though.

I just look around at everything in amazement for a moment. Then I think, I actually make myself wake up on accident. I start to expect that I'm about to wake up. And I unintentionally kind of force it. the dream fades to black. For a moment I sit there in blackness. Not even sure if I'm actually awake, or just dreaming the blackness. I open my eyes and I'm awake in my room.

I lay there thinking about the dream for a moment, before I remember I had better do a reality check to make sure it's not a false awakening. It was actually a pretty decently long Lucid. I left out the sex stuff. and I was doing acrobatics in the living
room for quite a while.

Kind of a cool Wild
I enter a work dream fully Lucid. I stand there looking around at everything. I'm trying to pin point something that is different from real life. I can't find anything at first. Everything looks exactly the same as in real life. Then, I notice the sound. It's not as noisy as it is in real life. And I cant hear some equipment running, that is normally always making noise. I'm satisfied with myself for noticing that. Then I start walking, to go do something. and I wake up.

Lucid Dream # 4 of 2007
No reality check needed

The first thing I remember is being in the back of some pickup truck. It's an abnormally large truck. I'm laying on my back looking up through the branches of a very tall tree.
One of the wide arms of the tree breaks off and falls on me. I think, I will be crushed. But somehow I just end up being pinned. I am able to lift the massive limb and push it to the side.

I get up and start playing around on the truck. I'm jumping from one part of the truck to the other. It's kind of strange. Gravity seems to lose it's effect. It's kind of like I'm walking on the moon. I jump, and kind of slowly float across the top of the truck and land. Somewhere around here I become aware that I'm dreaming.

There is no moment of shock realization. I just become aware that I'm dreaming without even taking note of the realization. If that makes any sense. It's happened to me like that a few times before. I start doing more acrobatics, doing flips back and forth across the top of the truck. I flip into the air and begin slowly levitating higher and higher. I begin swooping around these monster sized trees.

At this point a sense of great joy sinks in, and I'm happy beyond words. The trees are just beautiful. I fly to the top of the tallest tree, and perch on a thick branch. I take in the view and it's spectacular. I see somebody running on the ground below me. I shout down, "hey watch this!" I dive head first off of the tree. I fall like a rock, and slam into the ground with a lot of force. It was pretty cool. I get up and start running in the direction the other person was going.

I now feel like I've been in this dream for a very long time. I'm not sure why I felt like that. There must have been more to the dream I don't remember.

I now remember some goals. The first thing I do, is rub my hands together It feels pretty realistic. I then close my eyes, and try to visualize a castle on a hill. At the same time, I'm rubbing my hands together to help keep me in the dream. I am also still running while doing this. I should have stopped because the running was distracting me. I only have my eyes closed for a moment before opening them again to see where I am lol.

(My plan was to pretend that my eyes were open as I was visualizing the scene. So that I could smoothly just step into a new scene, without having to open my eyes again. I have done this before without being Lucid. I have yet to pull it off while fully Lucid though. But I only tried a couple times before.)

I try it again, still running. I almost make something happen this time. I start to see something starting to form. And I get that weird feeling you get, when just starting to slide into a dream when your trying to WILD. But then I open my eyes again and lose it. Back in the original scene again for a few moments before waking up.

Sun/Moon dreamsign noticed
Reality check induced Lucidity

A short Lucid, I woke up right away. But I'm going to count it because I'm proud of noticing the dream sign and getting Lucid.

I'm walking home from somewhere. I don't remember where from. There is a friend with me. I look up into the sky, it's kind of cloudy. I can see the Sun shining dimly through the clouds. In another part of the sky I can see the Moon clearly, because it's not so cloudy in that spot. But then I see another orb in the sky. It looks like a second Moon. I'm really confused by this. I don't understand how there could be two Moons and a Sun.

I point it out to my friend. He thinks it's strange too, but can't offer any explanation. My dream logic is trying to tell me, that the light from the sun is creating a reflection of the moon off the clouds. And creating an illusion of a second Moon. But this doesn't seem right to me either.

My friend is starting to walk away in the direction of his house. I Say "Maybe it's because it's a dream" As I reach up to pinch my nose, I think about how cool it would be, if this turned out to be a dream. I pinch my nose and I can breath!
It is a little hard to breath though, But I'm pretty sure it's a dream. I shout to my friend,"Hey, I think this "is" a dream!" I push my finger into my hand, It does not want to sink in. That doesn't bother me though, I'm not going to let myself lose it. For the first time, I remember the rule of thumb. If you find yourself seriously thinking you could be dreaming, you probably are. I think about that, as I reach up to pinch my nose again. This time I can breath better than the first time. I'm just starting to go find something to do when I frustratingly wake up.

I've gotten Lucid a few other times because of the way the Moon looked. But it hasn't happened since the old days

Tornado dreamsign noticed
Reality check induced Lucidity
Another short one, but it was quite exhilarating.

I was at the movie theater. the movie had just gotten over. For some odd reason, I was paying for the movie after I watched it, instead of before. I'm trying to write a check but I'm having problems with the pen. Out of the blue, I hear a siren blaring. I know it's the tornado siren. I go to a window and look outside. There are dark storm clouds, and off in the distance I can see a funnel cloud forming. It doesn't take long for the funnel cloud to become a full fledged tornado, and touch down.

The tornado begins moving in my direction. And it's sweeping back and forth as if it's intentionally trying to do as much damage as it can. The movie theater now seems like quite a small building. I don't think there is any way we can survive a direct hit by the tornado. And I know it's coming right at us. I'm afraid now. I look around and ask,"doe's anybody know of a good place to hide from a tornado around here?" Nobody answers.

My house isn't to far away. And I know that my brother is at my house. I decide I'm going to make a run for it, try to get home before the tornado gets to close. I step outside and begin running. The tornado is moving faster than I had hoped it would. it's getting closer pretty fast. I don't think I can make it. I may have made a big mistake. The wind has picked up so strong, I feel like I'm going to be sucked into the tornado at any moment. The wind is trying to pull me back the way I had come.

I'm trying to move as fast as I can, but it's slow going. I'm half crawling now, grabbing at the earth trying to pull myself along. I can see cars being blown off the road. And the tornado is behind me now. It has already swept through the building I was in, and destroyed it. I'm quite afraid at this point. It suddenly remember that I see tornado's in dreams often. I reach up to pinch my nose. As I do I'm thinking please let this be a dream. I pinch my nose and I can breath!Instantly, relief washes over me. Fear is completely gone. I haven't felt that kind of relief since the old days of nightmare induced Lucids. I fully stand up, and I surrender to the force of the wind. It pulls me into the air, and I begin flying. I have control of my flying though. I think about turning around and flying straight into the tornado to defy it. But, I still have that urge to make it home. I now want to get home to tell my brother this is a dream.

The wind is so strong still, that it gets up under my shirt, and pulls my shirt right over my head. I stretch out my arms, and let the wind pull my shirt completely off me. It's a pretty cool feeling actually. I'm so exhilarated at this point, that I begin laughing hysterically. I fly over a highway and watch the cars driving by underneath me. I continue on trying to find my house, but I'm now not quite sure where it is. I fly in the same direction looking for my house for a few moments when I wake up.

I lay there with my eyes still closed for a few moments trying to deny that I had woken up. But I finally open my eyes and see that it's true.

Comments
Many times I've had tornado dreams, and knew it was something that happens in my dreams a lot. But every time, I believed that this time it was actually happening, and I never got Lucid. Thanks to training myself to do reality checks, this is the first time I've gotten Lucid from a tornado. I'm very happy about that!

Two Lucid Dreams

Lucid Dream # 7 of 2008
Dream character induced Lucidity
two more short ones.

I'm having this strange dream about being at the doctor. I'm sitting in this really uncomfortable chair. It's like a dentist chair. The doctor is doing something strange with my ear. I don't even remember exactly. I mostly remember how damn uncomfortable that chair was. I bunch of kids come into the room. They are the doctors assistants. They are doing the paperwork or what ever.

At some point the doctor tells me to take a break. So I go outside and get some fresh air. After a few moments, I go back inside. There is somebody in the hall yelling, "this is a dream!" And running around like crazy.

I know he is right, so I am now Lucid as well. I think about how strange it is that I became Lucid, because of a DC becoming Lucid first. I start running up and down the halls as well. I run back and forth a couple of times, doing back flips off the walls at the ends of the corridors.

I now notice this large black woman in a red shirt and black pants. standing at one end of the corridor. She looks very angry and mean. I know that she works here at the office, and does not believe this is a dream. I run up to her, and give her a big hug. I tell her it "is" a dream, and that she should pinch her nose and see if she can breath.

I demonstrate by pinching my nose, but I can't breath! I'm like WTF, maybe I'm wrong. But, I know I'm not wrong! I pinch my nose more trying to breath through it.
But it feels just like doing it when I'm awake.Then I wake up, And I have my nose pinched for real! And I'm like no wonder it wasn't working, I was really doing it in my sleep. This time I know without doubt, that I was pinching my nose for real while I was asleep.

Also, I know why I was dreaming of being in that uncomfortable doctors chair. I was sleeping on my back propped up on pillows. And I woke up just as uncomfortable as I was in that dream chair.


Lucid Dream # 8 of 2008 In my nap
Tree dreamsign noticed.
reality check induced Lucidity.

I'm laying on my back, in the back of a pick up truck. The truck is driving down the road I don't know who is driving. I'm talking to some lady on the phone. She is talking about hair cuts, And I tell her that I'm going to shave my head.

As we drive down the road, I see the most beautiful tree that we had passed. I'm facing the back end of the truck. It's a weeping willow tree. It's very tall, and it has the most beautiful long strands hanging down. The strands are very green, and fine as human hair. The strands are so fine, that I can actually see through them to the many limbs of the tree. And the shape and huge width of the many limbs twisting around in such a way. That I'm just stunned by the beauty of it.

The lady on the phone is just rambling on about what, I don't know anymore. I try to tell her about this most extraordinary tree That I'm seeing. I suddenly remember that these amazingly beautiful trees have been pretty common in my dreams lately. So I Pinch my nose and I can breath!

I ask the lady on the phone, if she can hold on a minute. She says "sure." So I set the phone down with no intention of ever coming back to it. I get up and it's as if I had a false awakening. I'm now at home getting up from my bed. But I never lose Lucidity.
I don't even hardly notice the change in the scene. It's dark and I start walking. I remember Moonbeams comment about trying to see if you can levitate for a reality check. So I decide to try it and see if it will work. I levitate about a foot off the floor,
and float across the room.

I set down again, and start walking across the living room. It becomes so dark, that I can't see at all. It's as if I have my eyes closed, but they are open. I think about trying to visualize a new dream scene. I try a little bit, but I'm to lazy at the moment and don't want to put in the effort.

I run into a wall that I can't see at all. I feel along it with my hands. I turn, and there is another wall. I now think, that I might be trapped surrounded by walls. As if I'm in a very dark closet. I realize, that just feeling that way could make it so. So, I alter my frame of mind, so that I don't feel that way. I'm not afraid at all, just kind of curious about the situation. I turn again, and I can now see a room, that has light. but not much. it's like there is a night-light on. I start walking in that direction when I wake up.

Lucid Dream # 9 of 2008
Flying dreamsign noticed
No reality check needed
Basic Lucid Task Completed

I don't remember the beginning of it that well. What I do remember of the beginning is kind of confusing. I end up in a house with some people. I randomly levitate up to the ceiling. No idea why, I just know I can, so I do. Once up by the ceiling I become aware that I'm dreaming. It's one of those smooth transitions, not much of a surprise at all. I'm levitating around near the ceiling for a while, just having fun. I think to myself, cool, I'm Having my ninth Lucid of the year. For a moment I think of trying to have sex with someone. But, I then remember the Lucid Task.

I land. I'm in an upstairs hall, so I run down stairs and enter a room. It's a bed room and someone is just laying down to go to sleep. it's dark so I reach to flip the light switch. I have a hard time reaching it at first. I think about how switches are not supposed to work in dreams anyway. But,I flip it, and the light comes on.

I sit down on the edge of the bed. There is a teenage boy laying there. "Can I ask you a question?" I ask. He says, "You want to know something about yourself that you don't already know." Surprised that he already knows what I was going to ask, I'm also a little disappointed because I don't know if it will count if I didn't ask it. I say "Yeah tell me."

He starts rambling something, I don't remember what it was, but it wasn't about me.
I say, "No, I need you to tell me something about myself that I don't already know!"
Satisfied now that I asked the question myself. Task Completed.

The kid looks me in the eyes. his eyes are brown. "Well dad, I was trying to avoid telling you." ( he called me dad!) I'm pretty surprised by that. His eyes are starting to fill with tears. And he says, 'I absolutely hated the way you used to make me stay up all night playing marbles"

Then he starts going on about all the things I did while he was growing up that he didn't like. I can't remember everything he said. but with each statement he gets angrier and angrier. Until he finally picks up this cup next to the bed. and throws it at me. It's filled with something white, like Milk. And I'm covered with it.

I then grab the edge of the bed and flip it into the air. he goes flying across the room and slams into the wall. he falls to the floor with the bed laying upside down on top of him. He then begins laughing no longer angry, this is just some game. I start laughing as well. Still fully Lucid I realize how funny this all is. I wake up laughing.

Note: I don't have any kids and never plan to have any!

Lucid Dream # 10 of 2008
Spontaneous Lucidity
Interrogation attempt # 1

I think I'm playing a video game. I have this controller in my hand And I can control this DC with it. I'm not watching it on a screen, I'm in the same room as the character I'm controlling. There is actually more than one room. People are trying to attack my character. I'm making him run around, slide across the floor on his knees, pull out guns, and fire at his attackers. I'm also able to control his hand to hand fighting moves.

LOL, it's like I have a remote control DC! I make him walk into this room and I follow him. The room looks like a living room. The regular living room furnishings. There is a woman messing with a TV. I start making my DC throw stuff at her, when Lucidity spontaneously washes over me.

I immediately drop the controller. I Think sweet, I'm Lucid again! I take a moment to look around and appreciate my good fortune. The women, a bit heavy set, with red hair and a white shirt, finishes what she is doing then sits down on a couch. I then think of the interrogation task. I say "hey lady." As I walk over to her, and sit down next to her. I sit down next to her, and ask "What are you from?" She laughs and asks,"you mean, what does it matter?" She knows what I meant, and is being a smart ass. " I meant, Where are you from?" "You want to know Where I'm from?" she asks.
I say "yeah!" She gives me this knowing look, and says, " I'm from a place called Elete."

I get the impression,that" Elete" is some beautiful magical place that exists somewhere in dream land. I get this hard to describe feeling of fascination wonder and excitement. I look at her shirt, and I see she has a name tag. On the name tag are the letters Elit, written in beautiful hand writing. I'm Wondering if that's how your supposed to spell the name of the place she's from. Or if her name is Elit, from Elete.

I look around for something to write with, because I want to write this down so I don't forget. But, I realize that's a waste of time. I'm Lucid enough to remember I'm not going to wake up with the note in my hand. So I drop that Idea. Then my alarm starts going off.

Comments
Well I got the question wrong, but I was happy with the experience. It was a good question, and I got a good response. I think I'm going to follow up on it, and see if any other DC's have heard of this place called Elete.

Wild attempt # 1
I enter a scene fully Lucid. I'm looking at a kid in a highchair. Probably my youngest nephew. I feel the scene trying to slip away, and I'm able to pull myself back into it by sheer force of will. Not sure how to describe it. Just focusing on the kid in the chair before me. And I'm using my mind somehow to pull myself back into it. It's a back and forth struggle for a little bit, and I finally lose.

Wilding into A nap
I enter a dream without Lucidity. I'm in a grocery store parking lot. Someone is with me and we are talking as we walk towards the store. Lucidity spontaneously washes over me. I think I'm about to have another good Lucid when I wake up. I had forgotten that I was even trying to WILD. I had thought I just got Lucid in a normal dream.

lol she put the figurine in her mouth and swallows it lol i laughed my head off when i got to that bit! hahahaha

I don't think I'm going to post it though, due to some personal emotional content.

Lucid Dream # 12 of 2008
Best dreamsing noticed

I'm in an outdoor location. There is a TV playing, and a commercial is on for some street legal dirt bike. I'm watching the commercial thinking it would be cool to have that for the cabin. Next thing I know there is one right in front of me. I sit on it, and try out the blinkers and lights. They only want fifteen hundred dolors for the thing brand new. I'm thinking heck yeah, I'll pay that.
Meanwhile, near by is this big box like structure. It has a lid with hinges, and a fan blowing on the inside of it. The cover of the box is open, and there are some kids playing on the inside of the cover.
I look over in that direction. The cover slams shut flipping the kids into the box on top of the fan.(I can't actually see the fan. I just know it's there.) I freak out and run over there to try and help them. I jump up onto the box thing. suddenly without warning, the box lid forcefully flips open, springing me high into the air. Lucid,I can see the kids hanging from the inside of the lid. They were hanging onto it the whole time without falling onto the fan. I shout to them."This is a dream!" And I continue flying straight up into the sky. There are a few power-lines, but they don't hinder me at all. I think about grabbing onto them, and playing on them. But I decide to rocket higher into the sky.
I then release control and lean backwards into a little end over end free fall. Once near the ground again, I hear one of the kids saying,"this is so cool, we can do anything we want." I see them trying to do back flips. but they keep falling down.
I swoop along the ground, somewhere between ten and twenty feet up, until I come to this long apartment complex style garage. It's brown, and still has an a frame style roof.
I land on the roof, then take a few running steps and jump off. I attempt to do three back flips before landing on my feet on the ground. But I don't get quite enough rotation on the third flip, and I crash into the ground. (Oh well.) I get up, jump up, and grab the edge of the roof. I try to pull myself back up. I'm surprised at how realistic gravity feels right now. I'm having a hard time getting up, but after a moment I manage it.
I run across the roof again, and leap into the air. I can see someone taking pictures of me flying.(I guess they want to have proof they saw a flying man.) I fly along a little, then land on this brick wall. After all this flying, I start to question whether or not I really am dreaming. No problem though, I just pinch my nose to find out, and I can breath.(I'd like to shake the persons hand, who came up with that RC. Their a genius!)
I jump into the air again, and I see my dog running on the ground below. I yell to a nearby person,"My dog knows it's a dream too, dogs always know that kind of thing."
I know she can fly, so I call to her. She jumps into the air and flys up to me.
I put my arm around her, and we fly together for a while. After a little bit, she struggles to get out from under my arm. I realize that she wants to go on her own Lucid adventure. So I let her go. She lands on the ground, and I watch fondly, as she takes off chasing after some small animals. Then I wake up with the dog sleeping next to me.
I just had a shared dream with my dog! Well, you never know.
WILD attempt # 1
So Close
After waking up from the above Lucid, I do maybe a twenty minute WBTB.Then...
I enter a work scene fully Lucid. I'm doing something inappropriate for the work place.
There is a little exhibitionism involved. I see my boss come walking by. He says." when I get time, we are going to have a little talk about the future of your employment here." Knowing I'm dreaming I don't care, I think it's funny. I watch for a Little bit as people are doing work related stuff. And my boss walks by a couple more times. I decide to go for a little walk. So I walk along, and observe the environment, and people. I feel Like I'm having a full blown Lucid Dream now. I suddenly think, WOW! I'm successfully WIlDING! But my excitement over that realization wakes me. up.
Attempt # 2
I immediately enter another scene, Lucid again. I'm washing my hands in a sink. I'm thinking It's interesting that the faucet works.(I often watch to see if faucets are working right when I use them. I figure they could malfunction like any other device.) As soon as I think that though, the water stops coming out. And no matter how much I turn the handles the water wont come out again. I play with that a few moments before waking up again.

Cool batch of lucids.
I like how you just left the kids hanging over the fan.

You got to go on a lucid adventure with a pet. I wonder if dogs really do know that kind of thing.

Thanks, Actually the kids were OK after the lid flipped open again.

Yeah, that was great flying with my dog like that. I wouldn't be surprised if they did know.

dream 1

i was at my house it was day so i went to my friends house to play we played tag for quite a while then i got dark so i went home 5 minutes later i heard a weird scary noise in my front yard i thought "what the hell ill go check" (which i would not do in reality =D ) so there i was walking to the front door when i noticed a little person or...thing. i was so stupid that i called out hey well here i am come and get me! ( cause i know thats what monsters end up doing in my dreams but this morning i was thinking why the hell was i so dumb!) it moved up to my face (causei was behind my screen door) and said ...again... at this point i was very freaked out and end up cringing wich cause's me to wake up.
