Lucid Dream

I was walking down the street in my friend's neighborhood, it as night at around 11pm as I remember looking at my phone for the time. As I was walking back to my friend's house there was an old man walking into his house and he yelled out to me, something like “Hi, hope you have a nice day.”. I turn around and shout back, “Thanks, you too, and sweet dreams.”, and at this point I think I became somewhat more aware of the dream once I said that but it did not make me lucid at this point. As I turn around and continue walking, like I said before I was more aware of my surroundings, I noticed what a beautiful night it really was. All the houses in the distance were shrouded by a light foggy mist with a really blue color, and I remember looking in the sky, it was a darker blue but the stars were out and plentiful. I love admiring the stars so I kept my eyes on the sky as I kept walking, and then something happened which caused me to become lucid, the stars started forming constellation lines between them. I could not make out any of the constellations but there were plenty of lines connecting the stars and I was so not-normal that I knew it had to be a dream. I did not even RC, I was convinced at this point and looking at the sky I wanted to fly, so I jumped way up into the air. A part of me was like “why did you do that!” because the last couple times I tried to do something like flying right of the bat the dream would end, but the other part of me was just staying calm and enjoying it and the dream did not end up ending right here . I wasn't actually flying, I just jumped around 100ft into the air and did a little flip at the top before starting to fall back to the ground, this happens to me a lot. So, as I reached the ground, I don't know what possessed me, but I just lifted my hands up and wanted to make and explosion go off in the distance, which it did. About 3 explosions go off, and I remember being amazed at the lighting on all the houses and even myself, but then the explosions jut disappeared once I stopped paying full attention to them. I still really wanted to fly, not just jump high but actually fly. Realizing that I have had good control in the dream so far, I set out to try it again, I jumped way up into the air with my mind focused on not stopping. This is where the dream got interesting, I was flying alright, but really fast and before I knew it I was skyrocketing out off the Earth's atmosphere into space. I just went with it as I kept going and going, it was almost like I was on a ride, I was just sitting back admiring the view of flying through space. I remember looking back and there was this huge red open portal thing behind Earth, I did not pay much attention to it. At first, there was a lot of colors everywhere, but after awhile everything started getting blacker and blacker with nothing to see. Well, that went on up until I noticed I was approaching something, it was the red portal again, but it was in-front of me. I was not stopping so I flew right through it and it took me back to where I started, right outside of Earth where the portal was to start with. I was confused at the time and something was telling me that I was in a parallel universe where time went backwards and I even had like a vision of some people walking backwards and everything. I can't remember exactly how it ended, but the rest of the dream is unclear to me.

LD

I. I do not remember what I was doing before this, but I find myself walking through a hall when I did a RC which got me thinking about dreaming, the RC worked and I knew it was a dream from my DS. The school was laid out different than the real one, but I knew where I was going because I suddenly remembered it from previous dreams (or that I thought I did and my mind was making the right path for me). I walked into the library/computer room and my old english class was there, the same teacher was there and and I looked around and most of the people I recognized was from the class. My teacher called to me, so I walked over to her and she started telling me something, it was just about a paper or something, so I was not paying attention since it was a dream. I started to leave, thinking of going outside, and that is when everything just went black. I wasn't awake, I was still sleeping, but it was like I fell out of the dream and everything was black. Maybe I was in SP and just couldn't move, but I tried going into a new dream, and maybe I did because that is all I remember of it.

LD

I. I was in the school computer room, I was playing a game on the computer while people were giving presentations in the front of the room. This dream came right after waking up from a previous dream trying to DEILD, and while I was sitting there when I thought something like, “Wait, I was supposed to be dreaming.”. I instantly became lucid as I remember that being back as school is my main DS. The room we were in was dark because of the presentations, so I lift up my hands and try to create a ball of light between my hands. The ball was created, but it was really small and faint so it did not project much light. I like to do little manipulations like that once I become lucid, I believe it helps me focus on the dream more. The dream was not unstable or anything like the last couple nights, so I proceed to get up and leave the classroom. I quickly make up my mind that I want to go outside and explore, and thinking about a theory that I have been trying to practice, I say that out loud so the dream can react to my intentions. I am walking through the halls trying to find an exit, the halls were empty, and I come across a office that was not in my real school. I open the doors and walk in, seeing if I can quickly walk though the offices to find a quick exit of the school. As I am walking through the office a woman walks in, it was apparently hers since she walked over to the desk and sat behind it, though I did not recognize her from real life. She looks at me and says “How are you, what can I do you for?”, as I am walking to the door. I turn around and say something like “I am fine, I am just passing through to leave.”. Once I said this she became angry, her face grew darker and she started to yell and the dream ended.

Lucid Dream

Night 44

I had a short LD that ended that I chained into a longer LD, it was too bad that it was one of my early dreams because I do not remember most of the conversations even though I remember them being interesting.

I. I was in my kitchen with a friend of mine, I remember the phone ringing and I went to go answer it, and I still can't believe it but I looked at the ID and it said "You are lucid.". I was like "what?" and I was like "this is a dream?" and I did a RC and it worked. I turned around and my friend was gone and there were like 2 women there now. I remember I was trying to stabilize the dream because I was more excited than usual, and I could feel the dream fading. As I was trying to stabilize, one of the women walked next to me and started talking to me, she said "So you want to stay here?". She then said something else to me, it was only one word but it was really meaningful at the time, I think it started with a P but I can't remember. As soon as she said it the dream ended.

II. So, I woke up when I really wanted to stay, so I was thinking about everything about the dream and the next thing you know I was back. I was standing in the same exact spot and the woman was talking to me again, but I was just stabilizing the dream so I wouldn't wake up again. I was more calm and relaxed so the dream didn't start to fade. I was just curious as to who this woman was, so I was just listening to what she were saying, and I cannot remember the conversation, but I started walking with her to my living room. We sat down and I still can not remember what we were talking about, grr. We then walked up to my parents room to their sink, there was someone there and he started shaving me face lol. She was still behind me talking to me, I wish I could remember just a fraction of what she was saying but I do not remember any of it. I remember looking in the mirror, it looked like I was dizzy and like I was about to collapse, but I was standing still, then I noticed the woman reflection and she had real distinct features. I do not recognize her from my real life, but she had dark brown hair just like mine, small like 5'4, brown eyes, and a large smile. We were laughing during our conversation, and when I was done with the shaving we walked to the door towards some other people and started talking with them. The dream ends around here. When I woke up I was debating getting up and writing down the dream so I would remember what she was telling me, but I decided to try to keep on chaining, which I regret now lol .

False Lucid Dream

Night 42

I had a really short LD, and a short FLD.

I. I was at my grandfathers house with my aunt, we were in the dinning room doing something, and I just looked around and said that this was a dream. I did a RC and it worked and my aunt looked at me funny and started walking away from me. I walked to her and said "wait, I want to talk to you." I grab her arm and look at her. The dream started to fade and I tried rubbing my hands but the dream ended anyway.

II. I was in my house, but the upstairs was completely different, I was in some room looking out a window that had bars on it when I noticed 2 people sitting out in our yard. In my mind I was thinking it was a dream, and I was acting lucid, but I wasn't consciously lucid. I walk down the stairs where my dad is their telling me to come to the basement to watch a game, I said not at the moment, I want to ask the people outside something first. He said ok, and went down stairs. I walked out of my house and approached the people in my yard, they looked at me in a dull/blank way. I said something, but I do not remember what it was, and the dream started to fade at this point but I remember saying I want the dream to stay, but it ended.

I had some ND's as well, but I do not remember them at the moment.
