      Lucid Task for the Month of August 2007

      Introduction:

      This topic is for the Lucid Tasks I assigned this month. During this month, please attempt one or both of the tasks.

      Report back in this thread, even if you didn't successfully accomplish the task, your efforts should make interesting reading! This is required in order to get credit, it is no longer sufficient just to say that you did it.

      Whoever completes either of these tasks gets the following goodies until the end of the month:

      *** Your name will be displayed in ORANGE in the online members list at the bottom of the main forum page.

      *** You will receive a special title and badge

      *** You will receive access to the "Lucid Task Club" which is a limitted access forum for people that complete the lucid task each month.

      Tasks for this month:

      Lucid Task: On the Dream Views main forum, there is a blue bridge leading to a mysterious city. Cross this bridge and report back what you find on the other side.


      Advanced Task: Find your sleeping body and wake yourself up.
      you must be the change you wish to see in the world...

      I'm a miserable witch when someone wakes me up prematurely. I'd probably end up kicking my own butt if I woke myself up in dream. Would be interesting to see who would win out of that fight though. I can't loose right, I mean, I'll win either way.

      I always wondered what was in that city on the other end of the bridge. Do we actually have to walk across it or can we fly or teleport?

      I have a better and more interesting idea, find your sleeping self, masturbate your sleeping self and see if you have an orgasm, whilst your masturbating your sleeping self.

      Lucid tasks are designed to help you learn more about yourself and to improve your ability to control your LDs.

      Oh yes, I am very much looking forward to the advanced task. Last time I tried that I got a rather interesting result. The dream kind of split, a false awakening and the lucid at once, it was odd.

      It'll be interesting to see how the experience differes however many years later.

      wooooooooooooooohhhhhhhh...thats spooky i just looked close at that picture and i just had a flashback to one of my earliest lucid dreams where i woke up on that bridge.....i remember running to that city and then turning back because it took so long to get there, then i turned round and sprinted to the city/island.....when i got there i looked around and it was so messed up...the whole city was in ruins with buildings broken and massive destruction....it was like a massive bomb had hit....it was really freaky...especially as it was before i came to dreamviews...

      Wow! Both the Lucid Tasks sound really fun! I'm definitely going to try these tonight with DEILD. It'll give me a chance to remind myself not to move when I awake from a dream...

      Seriously, this looks soo great!

      What if you have a FA and realise you're dreaming, would it be possible that you'd look back at your bed and see yourself sleeping there?!

      I'm going straight for the advanced. Haha. I am not good at creating cities or large scale things. But creating my own house and finding myself in my room shouldn't be that hard.

      WOO
      this is actually my first lucid Too!
      Ill explain
      Before i went to bed a a couple hours ago i saw this thread and though. well ok Ill try to do a false wakeup and remain calm after i do.
      And this time before i went to bed i wrote something on the back of my hand, it said I'm dreaming, so i went to sleep, i woke up ,it was sunny out and i did a reality check, looked at my hand and nothing was written, i thought to myself though I'm dreaming. i went over to my x box and tried to turn it on, nothing happened, i turned around and there was another me laying in my bed, i went over and tried to wake myself up , it didn't work, i took a pillow from under his head and whacked him/me with it, he woke up . i was about to ask questions to him. but he had already known what i was going to ask, i think i must of been talking to myself. or my brain. anyhow , i got really exited asking all these questions and i woke up, its only 2 hours after i went to bed, but i did it my first LD too
      I don't know if this will count but i think it meets the standards, Il have to work on not getting as exited tho i cant beilive i got the advanced one tho,
      My first LD

      I actually can not find my own body without waking myself up so this one might be easy,,, I tried for a couple years to watch myself sleep, but everytime itr wakes me. So tonight I will see if it happens again.
      Peace Be With You. Oh, and sure, The Force too, why not.

      I don't think you can see "yourself" lying in the bed if it's a false awakening, you're just tricked to have woken up, but since it's a dream it is possible to find see yourself in it. :p Hm... it would be strange to have a FA and find yourself lying by yourself in it.

      Whooohooo! First lucid dream!

      I failed the task, this time, but here's the story of my effort:

      My family and I were in a huge kitchen. It was unbelieveable dirty and messy, with enormous piles of food covering the floor and surfaces. My mother stood in the centre of the room, shouting endless orders. The dirt kept reappearing so nothing we did ever achieved anything.

      I had a false awakening, but I realised it was one. The dream hadn't madea good job of it. I started thinking about if it could be adream when Mum dragged me back into her kitchen of doom when I realised it had to be a dream.

      Mum stood in front of me. Just as the realisation that I was lucid whizzed through my brain, she jutted a finger towards me and opened her mouth to bark out another order. I just wanted her to SHUT UP! My mind had gone through enough phsychological torture for one dream! I raised a hand and waved it at her. I just felt it was the right thing to do. I just wanted her to disappear. I focused on that thought and -


      Mum froze for a second and then, with a slight blur, disappeared.

      Yes! I thought excitedly (I know it was forced, vey bad, etc, but I really needed to get out of there). I realised I was losing the dream slightly, but I igtnored it, just hurried. I didn't think to rub my hands though.

      Ok. Now it was for the task. I needed to find myself, so that meant finding my house (I have no idea were this kitchen was) so I grabbed a big boz and ran to the post box. The dreamscape kept getting worse, but I don't think I was highly enough lucid to realise. I wrote the address somehow and got in. I planned to send myself to my house, but it didn't work.

      I woke up. I think the dream was deteriorating either because of my excitement or because of the desappearing thing. I don't think I should have tried that in my first lucid dream... but anyway I'm still very happy with it!

      P.S. I usually get on well with my mother...hmmm.

      P.P.S. Whooohoo!

      I plan on riding a motorcyle or a flying lion across the bridge. :p

      Anyway, I got the advanced one, an uninteresting as it is.

      I did a WILD, and had a false awakening. I stood up, and took a moment to rub my hands and get a grip on what I should be doing. I remembered the advanced task. I turned around, fully expecting my sleeping self to be there. I (she? AHHHH!) was there, but she was wearing the clothes I wore yesterday, not the pajamas I wore when I went to sleep. I woke her up, and she sat up slowly, not saying anything, apparently very tired. (Well, I would be! It was like 6:00 a.m. and in the summer I wake up at 9:00!) She got out of the bed and stood behind me. I got the impression that she was just going to be my shadow throughout the dream. I phased through my second story window to test this idea. When I landed, I turned and she was still there.

      I took another moment to rub my hands and gother my thoughts, and decided that I should go to the Lucid Crossroads for Alex D and Kromoh's wedding. I began spinning, and nearly woke up. I could feel both my back against the bed and my feet on the ground. However, I concentrated hard and ended up at the crossroads. My sleeping clone wasn't behind me anymore. I guess she got lost during the telelport. I walked up to one of the blue women and asked, "Could you please tell me where the events room is? I'm here for Kromoh and Alex D's wedding." She looked a bit confused, (must be in training) and said, "I'm afraid you're going to have to ask that woman over there." She pointed to another blue person about 30 feet away. I thanked her and turne back toward the other person. I passed the 'coffee table' and figured I should sign the guest book, as it was my first visit. I picked up the book, and opened it to reveal a book of coloring book pages, crossword puzzles, word find puzzles, and sudoku. Some things were filled in, some weren't. And some were filled in when I passed them once, and then cleared when I turned back. I rifled through the book trying to find the signing page. I thought, "I know a lot of children lucid dream, but this is ridiculous." I woke up before I could find the right page. Don't worry, I get there next time!

      Although I didn't successfully complete the task, I sure was close! The lucid bits I'll put in bold. And the bits relavant to the lucid task I'll put in itallics.

      I woke up at 3am, stayed up for 30 min and tried to WILD. Although I didn't WILD, I did go into a dream. The dream wasn't that clear, colour and sound wise... but I do remember it well.

      I was on a deserted beach, with a large sandy bank of shrub and bush. I ran down the side of this dune, the hot sand burning my feet, towards the water. I ran down to the seaweed ridden edge of the water, and dipped my toes in. The sky was clear, and there was no wind, but the waves were massive tubes. Perfect surfing waves, I remember thinking. I ran into the water, but then got scared and ran out because of the huge rip.

      I ran down the beach, towards the small shacks I could see out near the horizon. I ran and ran, and tried to run even faster but it felt like I was running in slow motion. I got down the the small beach shacks, and there were also those little bathing box booth things. All of a sudden I heard a large clanging noise coming from this little red, blue and white beach changing box thing. A lady ran out screaming, toward the surf. I chased after her crying "Wait, wait!" I ran faster and grabbed her arm, but she wriggled out of my grip. I tried to follow her into the water but felt like I couldn't because of a jelly feeling barrier.

      She ran into the water, and all of a sudden I couldn't see her anymore. I felt this overwhelming sadness. All of a sudden I felt this arm grab me?!?! A man dressed sort of like a policeman said "You are under arrest for homicide. I was a witness to you pushing that lady in the water."

      The dream kind of skipped to me sitting in a small prison cell. It had two small bunk beds, and I saw that there were three other young girls about my age in this cell. I felt confused as to whyy I was there but then I remember me 'trying to drown' the girl from the beach. There was a prison warden banging on the bars telling us it was time to go to sleep.

      This confused me that I couldn't remember what happened between the beach and the prison, so I did a reality check by putting my finger through my hand. Sure enough I was dreaming! I remembered the lucid task nearly straight away, so I set about getting out of the prison. I walked over to the bars of the prison and used 'super human strength' to bend the bars so I could get through.

      I sprinted out of the prison, through a few long white corridors, opened a large wooden door and ran out. (Convieniently not running into anyone )

      It was twilight, and I ran out into a city. I found a large lit up office building which I ran towards, bounced off (matrix style) and launched myself into the air! I flew above the city, looking for the blue path type thing that I would need to get to do the lucid task. I flew around and couldn't find it so I thought I would try going to my house.

      I recognised a train station nearby my house so I zoomed down and landed on the ground. All of a sudden a police officer ran at me. Totally panicing, I grabbed his head and held my hand over his mouth until he collapsed. A bit freaked out by my first real violent attack on a random DC, I flew back up in the air. I saw my house after zooming around for a while and ran down.

      By the time I got there, it was dark. I morphed myself through the front door, but my house was dark. I ran over to where I thought my light switch was and tried flicking it on, but as I predicted it wouldn't work.

      I reached into my pocket and pulled out a wand. After waving it whilst crying out lumos, instead of my wand lighting, all the lights in my house went really really bright! I ran through the door leading down my hallway and turned left into my room.

      Sure enough I saw a 'me' lying in my bed. There was my cat, AND my dog also laying on there. I ran over and my dog started barking at me. Flynn (my dog) then ran out the door. I tried waking myself up, by pulling on the covers. I then grabbed my shoulders and started shaking! Unfortunately as I was doing this, 'me' started shrinking??!!?! The body shrank until I could no longer see it. Rather upset I ran around the house for a while looking for 'me' but alas, there was noone to be found.


      After that I gave up, ran outside (where it was now dawn) and jumped back into the sky. I decided to try and fly to the moon. So I launched myself off the ground towards the sky. Slowly the dream started to fade.


      After the dream, I semi woke up so I tried to dream chain, but I fell straight asleep.

      I am really pleased with this dream, because I had a fairly long dryspell! (Like nearly two months. Which is a long time for me )
      Also, although it wasn't that vivid, I do remember all of it clearly, and I had fairly good control.


      (and sorry for the long post!)

      Happy dreaming!
