Oops, thanks man, I was linked to the wrong image

Well i had a short LD last night, first in a while, and I spoke with some raccoons, but in english, and only for a little bit. They ignored me mostly, i think they had a superiority complex. twas annying.

How do you expect me to do this? I don't even speak Dolphin.

Try english, I suspect lucid dolphins are more intelligent than we give them credit for

Yay! I'm helping!

I had a lucid today in the morning. In the middle of the dream I remembered the lucid task and began to ask for dolphins. I was in a street and said many times: "Flipper, Flipper!" :-)

The only dolphin that I could see was a very little one in a garden inside a house. I saw that it was not working and decide to fly and look at the sea. A cow was in front of me and did not want that I leave. After a while I could manage the cow-problem and start flying.

I saw the sea and a big house (mansion) and saw dolphins in there. I went to the house and dive near the dolphins. I talked to one of them but he did not talked back to me. He then changed shape to a man but his nose was a dolphin one.

I think I did not achieve the task. :-(

Seeker, the dolphins have to talk back to us?

I'll do this tonight.. even though i really hate dolphins. (i dunno why, i just hate them in my dreams...) Can this be considered completed if I blow the dolphin up after I talk to him? I'm in if that qualifies.

Your dream! You can do anything to the dolphin you wish! Even make cat food out of him. O_O

Bad Seeker! Bad!

*nina squirts Seeker's mouth with lemon juice*

I did it!!!! Yay! When the dream started I was by the shore. I remembered the task and went into the water. I only went up to my ankles. I saw a dolphin, but it was really small like the size of a stuffed animal. I said hi. The dolphin said hi back. Then I couldn't think of anything to say. I must have remembered Gothlark's dream because I stupidly asked, Are you evil? The dolphin says yes. Then I get completely freaked out and ran for the shore. I sat down on the sand and the dolphin jumps out of the water into my lap. Then it says something like, but I'm not evil all the time. Then I pet the dolphin for a bit before I get up and start asking random people how to fly. This counts as a conversation right?

I'm not sure if I did it. Anyway, I 'm climbing the stairs of our former house when I realize I'm dreaming and remember the lucid task. There's really no water at all nearby, but I decide that there's a sea on the other side of the house. I fly to the other side, and there is a long gulf, a bit like a fjord. I fly towards the sea, and dive into water.

Soon I find a dolphin - not a normal one though. It's purple, small and somewhat foggy. It looks like a dolphin soft toy. Anyway, I start to talk to it. The conversation goes like this:

me: "Hi there!"
dolphin: "Hi there!"
me: "How's it going?"
dolphin: "Pretty well."

The dolphin disappears, and I start to look for a better one. I find one that has clearer silhouette, but it disappears soon as another person comes here. I think he asks me something, and I tell him that "I think there's no proper dolphins in this shitty municipality". Anyway, I was happy that I got an LD as it has been some time after my last one.

Well I realized I was dreaming.. YAY!!

I became lucid.. YAY!!

I remember the dolphin task.. YAY!!

I found a partially frozen lake.. YAY!!
(wait a minute.. a frozen lake with dolphins?)

I call for dolphins and the dream fades.. CRAP!!

The details are below for those who care to read them. :-)

I woke up around 3:00 am and went to my living room couch to do the wbtb method. I did some relaxation techniques and my "I will realize I am dreaming and become lucid" affirmations while looking at my third eye. After about 10 minutes I turn on my side and try to go to sleep physically but stay awake mentally.

I must have fallen asleep because I wake up slightly and turn on my back.

I start to see blobs like in a lava lamp. The blobs then turn into gumballs of different colors bright and vivid floating towards my eyes. I feel a rush of excitement and remind my self to calm down. I also try to remember all the stuff I'd read about hypnagogic imagery.. remain calm.. don't focus directly on the images, etc.

The gumballs turn into shapes similar to packing peanuts. I think "ok.. how do I go lucid from this?" I try opening one eye and see my living room! CRAP!! I blew it!.. but when I close that eye, the brightly colored packing peanuts are still there.

Without thinking, I reach out my hand and grab one of the peanuts. It became wide and sticky like cellophane. I pull on it and wrap it around my hands like a ball of yarn and use it to pull me into my living room. There's cellophane all around the walls of my living room and I walk around the walls rolling it until I have a form the shape of a medium size bale of hay.

I walk to my front door, open it and go outside still holding the cellophane bale (which is weightless btw).

Outside is sunny and crisp.. everything is bright and the smallest detail of every leaf, every blade of grass is visible! For some unknown reason, I wonder if I can use my cellophane bale as transportation. I put it between my legs and sort of bounce. I keep bouncing and find that I can float on it.

I remember the dolphin task and I float for about a mile until I come upon a beautiful partially frozen lake.

My mind yells "YES", I hover at the bank and yell "dolphin!.. here dolphin!!". Then my reason comes to me and I think "you're trying to see dolphins.. not calling a dog"! And then I think.. "a dolphin wouldn't be in a half frozen lake!!"

Well that did it.. the dream starts to fade. I try to spin but I was still floating on that stupid cellophane bale so that didn't work. I try to grab something to steady my focus but there was nothing I could reach and I woke up.

Seeker.. I promised you I would try to have a dolphin speak with me in english and I'll keep trying! :-)

Boo ya! Ended my dry spell and did the task! Though, trust my luck to get a snooty one.

*Opens his bathroom door to find a bath full of water*

D: Hmm... this gives me an idea...

*Closes and opens door, a dolphin is now in the bath, he does to stroke it*

Dolphin: Will you mind!

D: Excuse me...

Dolphin: Oh great, a smart one.

D: Look, your in my dream, I'm the real one, your just some strange part of my subconsious.

Dolphin: Well I bid you good day!

*The dolphin swims down the plughole, alex turns his garden into an ice skateing lake and flies down to it to skate*

well, i didn't do it.. but i did go partially lucid and dream of a lake of beer, in which there was a dolphin.. i tried to eat the dolphin, but failed misrably, hit my head on the boat, and woke up..

CURSE THOSE DOLPHINS!



(wow this is a sad 300th post)

Haha. I have already done that this month. I was forced to go to the underwater zoo with my brother on the day before my birthday. I talked with a dolphin. I felt understood. It made nice shreeking noises that were beautiful. I also conversed with a fox too. It was a wild one. Me and foxes just get along.

Me: Hey how are you?
Dolphin: Shreekkkkkah
Me: Well that's better than me I can assure you that.
Dolphin: Shreekeeeeshreek
Me: I am sure. I am stuck out of the house. My parents are going to do something boring and I get to act like I will have fun.
Dolphin: Shreekeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

It went on. I just am too lazy to post the rest. It was a dissapointing 15th birthday. I talk to animals a lot. I talk to the squirrels in my neighbor's yard. She has a lot of squirrels. 8)

I like this task.. it just so happens that I was downloading somewhat random songs a few weeks ago, and one was "The Dream of the Dolphin" by Enigma. It's a pretty neat song, too. I haven't done this task yet, so I think I'll try playing this song during a WBTB to get me in a dolphiny mood.

My birthday is on Monday. Maybe that day I will be gifted with an LD and be able to perform this lucid task. I'm tired of only having an LD a month, but alas that is my lot in life. I'll keep you posted.

P.S. Anyone who can has permission to infultrate my dreams (even in dolphin form)... just don't screw anything up. 'Cause then I'll go lucid and cap yo' butt!

I did it!!! :yumdumdoodledum:

Yesterday, in my 13th lucid dream I talked to a dolphin!
I was driving and did find a new road, very new, just paved. As I like to carveboard I decided to see if the road was good to surf in the pavement. In that moment I thought that something strange was happening. I did a RC (pinch my nose) and I became lucid!

I continue to drive the car, put my head out and realized that there was no wind in spite of the velocity that I was driving. Anyone felt the same in car-head-out-situations?

Well, eventually I went to a house and find a little lake where I saw a white dolphin. I asked him something like "what's up flipper" and he talk back to me in the language of the dolphins. He was very happy and easy going. We exchange some more words and I, with a little fear, give the dolphin a kiss, being glad to complete the lucid task for march!

There must have been something in the air last night.

I was walking with a teacher from a local elementary school, I forgot just what we were talking about, so it probably was not important. I looked around and it hit me, DREAM! Yeah, I floated about 6 feet off the ground and stared down at the teacher. What a look of horror on her face! I calmly told her this was a lucid dream and that she could fly as weel if she wished. I never bothered to see if she flew, because I just shot up to about 1000 feet or so. I guess I spent 10 minutes just flying around and experimenting with zooming.

Anyway, I knew there was something I needed to do in the dream, it was like "Oh yeah! The dolphins are waiting!"

The terrain was mountainous, which presented a problem. I was wondering how in the world I would create a scene with dolphins in the mountains. I concentrated and thought, "There will be a lake over the next ridge". After flying over it, I found a somewhat small pond nestled in a rocky valley. I landed on the shore and began calling out for dolphins.

The came to the top of the water, but were tiny, I mean about the size of a bullfrog. So cute. They had very small squeeky voices. When I asked them how they were doing, they said that they were sad. I looked around and could see why, the water was stagnent and polluted. One of them was very sick!

I waved my hand in my best Jedi manner and cleaned up the pond. All of them were happy and thanked me. Two of them remained with me near the shore, one came on shore and was bouncing around in the sand he was so happy. The other was floating, having a hard time getting underwater. Any of you that have raised fish know how they get before they die. I knew there was nothing I could do for him. I didn't see it, but I am sure he was too sick from the pollution and would die. It was sad, they were cute little fellows.

I then flew off and while flying around, decided to perform Aprils lucid task as well. Yeah, I know it's not been announced yet, I cheated =)

You are right!!! I ended my month long dry spell and was in and out of lucidity a few times last night. My dream recall also is enormous...I can recall about 8 different dreams!!! However, even though there was a TON of water in my dreams last night and I was swimming I was unable to complete this month's lucid task.

What's weird though, Seeker...is that I too, had dreams about polluted ponds/lakes last night. Had two separate dreams about lakes, one was just dirty, the other was being polluted with some sort of minerals and the water was beginning to turn turquoise and solidify. Really bizarre.

Heh. strange, I had a lucid moment in my dreams last night. And that's after 2 weeks at least of nothing.

Looks like maybe we should take DV down every now and then

No shit...works everytime for me!! That's so bizarre huh?

Yeah, back when DV was down in the summer I was having 4 LDs a night. I try to have one long one per night now. But yeah, that was before I could LD on will and all.
