      All of experience is fun for me, whether in a dream, or in reality, because I love existing, learning, and continuously evolving and sustaining. Then again, who knows, I may not enjoy existing so much if I caught a face full of buckshot from an angry farmer. But hey, at least I'd got out with a bang.

      Here's my second dream on the moon.

      Cyborg attack to a moon dome
      I go into blackness and I wake up in a cottage. I recognize many of my stuff in there, but I do not recognize the house itself. It had green doors and a tiled kitchen. I did a RC but it was not easy to conclude whether or not I was dreaming. I finally decided that I was. At this moment I almost woke up. Everything was black and I felt my body in bed, but I made the effort to come back and I found myself back in that house. I recalled again I wanted to go to the biodome in the moon. I used a door as a portal, but instead of opening it, I crossed it - silly, could have crossed any wall for the same effect.
      I found myself again in the darkness, but I made an effort to feel the ground beneath my feet, to stabilize the sleep. I felt a metal floor and then I stick my left leg to try to feel what was around there. I felt my foot sinking in water. Then slowly an image formed. I was on some sort of entrance hall, with a metal ramp with broad steps. Some of the steps had small round ponds on the left side.
      I went down the steps and to my left the wall became a large glass wall. Outside there was green grass and maybe 5 meters away were vertical white buildings aligned perpendicularly to this hall and forming corridors between them. By now I was in doubt this was the biodome, but because I still wanted it to be, I found two koi fish in the last larger pond, on the last larger step of the hall. One of the fish was enormous and transparent and had many other koi fish inside it. The fish rose in the air and it was hovering in front of my face. I had an unpleasant feeling about this and I was sure this was about to degenerate into a nightmare, but I rejected it and sent the fish back to the pond. The nightmare dissipated and in front of me I then saw the entrance to this world.
      On my right side there was a wall covered in ivy and branches of a lemon tree pending. I set my foot on the ground, which was covered with green grass. I felt I was in Paradise. There was a beautiful flowered valley, gentle green hills with lavish fruit trees and a bright blue sky. I saw people in the distance but they were very discrete. I looked up to try to understand if this was inside a dome or not and I saw the comb-like structure of a dome, very well disguised by the blue sky and the white clouds. I did not know if the blue sky was outside or merely an image projected on the dome, but it looked projected. The dome wasn’t big, because I could see its limits in the nearby horizon.
      I walked down to the valley, admiring the wonderful orchards and I decided to call my Dream Guide. I have never called it before and it was a good occasion as nay other. But before anyone replied to my call, I saw a pink spot spreading from one of the limits of the dome, like in a defect on a LCD screen. Then I saw another and another and another. I realized it was some kind of attack to the dome and in seconds I saw an army of cyborgs coming in from those holes in the dome. I could see their robotic structure under some kind of bionic transparent cover they wore. They were firing plasma guns all over. Then I saw all the people I had seen at distance before, running from every direction into the white buildings. I thought I should probably do the same, but the cyborgs were already everywhere! There were plasma explosions all around me. I was really in doubt about what to do. Then some guy, whose face I never saw, comes running from behind me and grabs my left arm and pushes me up a tree in the orchard. He hands me something and throws me into the tree trunk. Before I knew it, I had been ejected at high speed through a hatch in the dome and was hovering in outer space, in the starry night sky. It was all so fast.

      My friend across the street has an inkling that the moon is hollow. We have a longstanding goal to meet in the middle of the road, fly to the moon together, and break into it.

      I... almost... made... it.

      I tried flying to the moon at some point in the past week, but I landed on a small, obviously fake moon! When I woke up I was so pissed...

      No way in one of my first lucids I created a portal with the intention of going to the moon and I ended up on something that looked like a moon made out of paper mache. And I was controling this little guy who was jumping around the moon. It resembled something from that game little big planet, which I had never played at the time, and recently I played a demo of that game on my brothers ps3 and was tripping out on how similar my dream was to the game.

      Something like this happened to me. I couldn't portal to the Moon, and when I tried flying, the Green Moon was on fire. I saw another light in the corner of my eye. It was another Moon. But, it also became engulfed in flames. I freaked out, and woke up. Imagine seeing your house on fire in a lucid dream.

      I had a LD years ago of being on Mars during a rain shower. I didn't know where I was at first but I know what Mars looked like but everything was a bit off. The rain felt like the drops where very very small and the red sand felt like a thick dust made into a paste by the water and it was very cold. Mars should be a lot colder and totally dry. I searched in my senses for anyone, nothing. Then I searched for anything alive and I felt a shocking vacancy of life which I have never felt before or since, total 100% sterility. Then I realized this was Mars! I could see some puddles and the water was oddly a little gray. It couldn't get over how this was supposed to be Mars and yet it wasn't by any measure that I had. This weired me out and I started to lose my connection with it all and woke up.

      I think it is hard for most people to go to the moon is because they don't feel it as a real place. Sure you know its real but do you FEEL its realness like it is as real as the corner on your street? Read and study pictures about the place you want to go as much as you can stand and then bring it up in a LD. You have to really believe it. If you can't believe it you can't achieve it.

      A long time ago I had a lucid where I was flying completely effortlessly. I tried to fly to the moon but hit a giant barrier of dense dark clouds. It started to rain and as I made it through the clouds I found myself on the surface of an endless ocean but the moon was nowhere to be seen.

      The times that I've flown to the moon I manage to break through the event horizon in space but always seem to black out at this point before I actually reach the moon.

      Maybe because we have never experienced anything like the moon, sure we have seen it. but actually experienced it ourselves? no. The thought of a place where there is no law, no gravity, no life, both in lucid and real life, is to complex for our mind to understand. look up " schemeta " shows how dreams are formed, if we have no starting point for the moon we cannot force ourselves to make a moon universe

      I duno about that, people have experienced things in dreams before waking life and they end up being very similar if not the same, such as drugs and sex

      I didn't even use worm holes when I went, I just started flying into the sky
      From my rotting body,
      flowers shall grow
      and I am in them
      and that is eternity.

      I personally think that it is us to put limit to our dreams. We can't do something because we are born within the waking life and thus we've grown following its laws.
      On the dream plane, we must leave all of the waking life laws and embrace freedom.

      I think its because we think about everything we experience and get caught up in expectations. Habitual behaviors lead to unawareness.

      Okay, if your writing fiction, however, one cannot predicate of a first principle, which makes the whole thing fiction.

      Cusp: tried about an year ago. the pull felt kinda like in saltyseedog's dream, but i got distracted at mid-suck () and the moon became more like a map than an actual planet. when i hit the groudn, i just "pierced" the dream and ended in new, empty, gray dream, which soon ended.

      Tell me about it. I've had a couple recent lucid dreams after a huge dry spell in which I could only fly about 10 feet in the air... and then I fell back to the earth. I also tried summoning my friend, or even a DC of my friend, to where I was... and it was a DIFFERENT friend both times. And I couldn't shoot fireballs out of my hands without making sound effects with my mouth when I was trying to kill the monks that were swarming my home. My biggest goal now is dream control. I keep taking things for granted.
