Krista's Dream Journal

Dream - Lucid

I had woken up for a little while and I was having trouble going back to sleep. I decided to try to meditate to see if that would help. I cleansed my chakras and did some affirmations, and it worked!

Not only did it work, but I felt myself enter a dream. I was lucid immediately, and it felt quite stable. I was in my room at my parents' house. It was set up the way I had it when I was in middle school/part of high school. It was dark and nighttime out.

Of course, the first thing I did was call to Mike, but I got no response. Oh well. Onto other things.

I decided to try to make some portals. I hadn't done that in a very, very long time. The first portal I made was to erm...a sex world where I was the only female. I figured since this was my dream, I could go wherever I wanted, even if it was just for pleasure. Anyway, I drew the outline, and it was the oily rainbow color that it usually is, and jumped into it. Details will be spared, but it was an interesting experience. I woke up for one part of it, but I DEILD'd back into it. When I went back into the dream and other things happened, I woke up and again had to DEILD.

Upon the second DEILD, I found myself again in my dark childhood bedroom. I drew another portal and entered it. I intended to go to an astral world. When I got there, it was outdoors and sunny out. It had some nature around, so it wasn't like a city. I decided to try to change my outfit. There was, conveniently enough, a full-length mirror in front of me. I stepped away from it for a second, and imagined myself in a long, strapless, ballroom-type red dress. I stepped back in front of the mirror, and the dress looked nothing like I imagined, being a short, tight red dress -_-. I then tried again, and this time, it was a skimpy, see-through black lingerie type outfit. Nope. I kept doing it and getting different red and black dresses. I finally settled on a black one, I believe, though again, it didn't look like the one I imagined.

At some point, I woke up and DEILD'd again. I was back in the dark bedroom. This time, I decided to try to get to Teraluna, since it had been awhile since I'd tried. I drew my portal, and was going to write "Teraluna" in the center, but I decided to just fill it in instead. I jumped in, and was then inside of another dark room. Hyu was asleep on a bed there. I figured he must be sleeping IWL. I approached him.
"Hyu?"
He opened his eyes.
"Krista?" he said. He seemed surprised to see me.
"It's been so long since we've talked," I said to him. I don't remember his response. I do believe there was more conversation here, though, of course, I can't recall it. -_-'

We were then somewhere else, another world. I didn't see Hyu, but I was with a tall, thin person in a green shirt with a bob haircut. I thought maybe it was Hyu, but it was a woman...I saw that she had boobs. I was kind of confused, because it still seemed to be Hyu; I felt that it was, though the looks were deceiving. He told me it was him, and that he had just changed his form. Ahhh. Makes sense now.

I do not remember all the details of every place that we went, but we traveled around via portal quite a bit. There would be times when I woke and DEILD'd, and I'd end up back in the dream with Hyu where we left off. I also know that he changed his form a few times, once appearing as the tall skinny Asian guy that he first appeared to me as.

There were also points where I would do a finger count RC, but it would always fail; I would always count 5 fingers on each hand. Interesting.

Finally, I woke, and decided to end the DEILD chain. I was a little disoriented at first, thinking that I was still in my room at my parents' place. I turned over and went to sleep, entering a non-lucid dream.

Dallas and I were going to have a wedding ceremony. We were already married, but we had to have the formal ceremony. It was to be at a church. I pictured us walking in from outside with many other people, me in my dress and Dallas in his tux. It was a sunny day. I was picturing it in 3rd person.

Scene skip, though the wedding thing still applies. I was eating at a restaurant with a couple that looked to be in their mid-thirties. They also looked kind of country, and quite skinny. I remember the man had a country accent. There was someone else with us, but I can't recall who. The guy got up to go to the bathroom or something, and I saw on his plate three hot dog buns. They were not separated, but still whole without the slit down the middle being all the way through. I started to separate them for him. One of them looked very lopsided, and I was trying to fix it. He came back, and got onto me about trying to help him to separate his buns (lol separate his buns). He said it was rude. I apologized. I had only been trying to help.

Then, I got up to go do something. When I returned, no one was at the table; it's like everyone had gotten up to go, and no one was watching the table. There was a bill on the table, plus an extra fee of $4 for leaving without paying. Ugh, frustrating. We hadn't intended that to happen.

~

I was watching some weird version of the movie "Hook", where Hook is redeemed and finds his place in the human world. Towards the end of the movie, someone says "run home Jack", like they do in the actual movie, but it jars something inside of Hook, and he remembers that his name is actually Jack, and he gets overjoyed as he remembers his true identity, and somehow gets to the human world, though I can't remember how. I then remember seeing a commercial in the movie of an older version of him being topless with only underwear on. He was very fat with boobs, and trying to cover up his nipples as he jumped around with other people on the TV screen. I don't know what he was advertising, but he failed to cover up his very large nipples at one point. Pretty sure it wasn't an accident. Something about breast milk. I saw some coming out of his nipples. He was talking about "alternative milk". I thought about how that wasn't possible unless you were lactating after pregnancy. I couldn't believe they put that in the movie.

~

I was "recalling" my dream adventure with Hyu, trying to put the details together. I don't remember Hyu being there at all. All the worlds were somehow linked within a story line that was chained together through children's nursery rhymes and such. I remember being in a city at one point, and my brother being there at another point. He was talking on the phone. I remember at one point being in a bathroom and pooping...a lot.

I think these false memories made it harder for me to recall more details of my lucid adventures. Ugh. Dumb.

~

So more lucidity, and a visit with Hyu! Meditation really seems to help, and of course intention. I've also noticed over the years that I tend to LD more when I am laying on my back to sleep, which is not a common sleeping position for me. When I was meditating, I fell asleep, and I had been laying on my back as I usually am while I meditate. But there have been times where I haven't been meditating, but I've fallen asleep on my back, and even had a WILD that way. An interesting observation. I wonder what the link is between LDs and sleeping position? Does anyone have an ideas, or has there been any research done on it (formal or informal, it doesn't matter)?

Dream - Lucid

All I really recall about this dream is it being like a video game. First, I was in a classroom. It looked like one of my elementary school classrooms.

I was in a house at night, and I had to watch out for something in there.

I also remember riding in a car with a couple of other people. Something had happened as to where when we got mad, we'd grow these insane beards or mustaches. Wtf? I wanted to fix that because it was silly.

There was a football stadium in there somewhere too.

~

I was outside in what I think was a football stadium. The sky was very blue and it was daytime. There were other people around as well. They looked kind of cartoony.

I spontaneously just knew it was a dream. I flew into the air, but not too high. I wanted to let the dream play out to see what happened.

But of course, that didn't happen. I was then in a mall, watching people walk by. I decided I wanted to try to visit Hyu again. I walked around, searching for a wall or something I could draw a portal on. I found a pillar, and just as I was about to draw the portal, I thought of how Hyu teleports to get places, and how much faster that is. I decided to give that a whirl.

Only problem with that was I had no idea how to even begin to do that. I stood by the pillar and saw many people walking by. I though of my destination, though all I knew about that was it was wherever Hyu was. I thought about that for a little bit, and things started fading. I was losing the dream because I was just standing around doing nothing. I started to walk around, but everything went black.

~

I was then somewhere else. I tried to count my fingers, and was coming up with 5, sometimes 6, but I thought I had just miscounted those times. I tried to make an extra finger grow out of my hand, but couldn't. I had an inkling I was still dreaming, though.

Ugh. I need to get my dreaming skills back up to where they used to be. It's so frustrating.

EDIT: My mom just called me and told me she had her first lucid dream where she had control! YAY!! I'm proud of her!!

Also, I was her dream guide! She said that I was in all 5 lucids she had this morning, and I told her that she was dreaming, she could do whatever she wanted, how to switch dreams, and how to reality check!!

Just had to add that...I thought that was so cool!!!

Dream - Lucid

*Continued from Part 1*

I then heard music playing loudly. The singer was a male, though I don’t remember the words. I remember feeling someone else there with me. I thought to myself
“How can I sleep with the music so loud?”
Oh wait…I’m already asleep. Duh. The music then changed to a slower, lyricless song. It had a lot of sitar in it. I decided to enjoy and listen to the music. I felt myself falling, falling, falling, but not fast. It was a slow fall as I tumbled in space towards my dream.

The music ended as I landed in my dreamscape. I had entered the dream with some guy. We were in some office-type room, each of us behind a computer. The guy started to talk about the music that had been playing. I examined my hands. Too many fingers, and some looked like toes. I started walking around the room trying to figure out what to do. I floated around, looking for empty walls to draw portals on.

I then woke up again. I immediately DEILDed into another dream, feeling the same slow tumbling sensation as before.

I was in a room similar to the one I had been in before, but the guy was gone. I decided to try to see Hyu. I repeated my portal process of writing his name on the wall with my finger, drawing a circle around it, and saying where I wanted to go. It looked the same as before; similar to oil rainbows. I colored the portal in with my hand and entered it.

I then fell into darkness. I was in a pool of gooey stuff, it felt weird, but not gross. I then saw an opening into another room. I started going towards it. The room was colored dark blue with a poster of guitars on the wall above a desk. It was daytime outside, I could see it through the windows. At first, I wasn’t sure if I had ended up in the right place and hesitated, but changed my mind and went in.

I entered the room, and turned the corner into another room. Sitting in a chair to my left was Hyu. He looked older than what I remembered.
“Hyu!”, I said. He replied
“Hey Krista, haven’t seen you in awhile.”
I had this bizarre feeling that he was awake. It was like he was awake, but seeing me at the same time, even though I was asleep and dreaming. He then got up out of the chair. He had a backpack on his back. He was on his way to class. He started to go towards the front door.
“Can I come with you?”, I asked as I followed him. He told me no, I couldn’t. He had some report to do or something. He walked out the front door. I said something to him about wanting to see Japan, and if I should do that next. I can’t remember his response. He was a distance away from me at this point.

I then woke up again and DEILDed.

I was looking up at trees silhouetting the night sky. I tried to fly upwards, but woke up.

DEILDed again.

This time, I saw a town close to mine in waking life. In the dream, it had been devastated by a tornado (not so in waking life). I remember seeing an older couple in front of a destroyed building. The woman was bawling, saying that the town should be taken off the map. I was semi-lucid at this point.

I walked around in the rubble for a bit before I snapped into full lucidity. I phased through a wall to get outside. I then started to walk into a green field. For some reason, I threw my phone onto the ground. It shattered into many pieces. I decided to pick up one of the pieces, turn it into something yummy, and eat it. I picked a piece up. It felt like a light, powdery cake. I ate it. It tasted like powdered sugar.

I then decided to test my other senses. I looked all around me, taking everything in. I saw many green trees, and some horses fenced in a barbed wire pen in the distance. I tried to smell, but for some reason, I couldn’t smell anything.

I then decided I wanted to ride a horse, since it’s so hard for me to do so in waking life because I’m extremely allergic. I walked up to the pen. My friends Courtney and Caitlin were there. I decided that since I was dreaming, I could phase through or climb the barbed wire pen. I started trying to climb it, but it felt very uncomfortable. Well duh, it’s barbed wire…it’s not gonna feel good. As I tried to climb down, I noticed I was stuck. I looked down at my feet. There was a screw that had gone through the bottom of my pinky toe, rendering me stuck, though there was no blood. My first instinct was to panic; that stuff grosses me out to no end in waking life. I then decided I needed to calm down and figure out how to get unstuck. I made a comment about it to Courtney, saying I was stuck on a screw.

I then made the decision to yank the toe free. I had to face my fear. Without looking, I yanked my toe free of the screw. It hurt a little. I looked down at my foot. Still no blood, but I could see where the skin was broken and torn. I imagined a bandage on my toe. Courtney commented on how cute the bandage was, and that she never had cute bandaids. I looked down and there were Hello Kitty bandaids on my big and second toe, but not the pinky toe. I tried again, and a bandaid appeared on my pinky toe.

Then, I woke up again. I was going to DEILD again, but was afraid I’d never remember all this if I DEILDed too many times in a row. O_O

Dream - Lucid - AP

I was at work. It was daytime. There was a customer in there being a giant douchebag to everyone. He turned out to be some super villian, kind of like The Penguin in Batman. I was trying to ignore his antics, when I spotted him trying to pick a fight with another customer by the door. I yelled
"Hey! HEY!"
He, and everyone else in the shop, got silent and stared at me. I continued to yell
"We don't treat each other like that here. If you're going to, then you can get the fuck out!"
I turned around and walked away, fuming. My voice had sounded a little hoarse, but I think he (and everyone else) got the point. People started clapping and cheering.

Then, I turned around, and the guy was vomitting on the carpet. He was doing it to be a douchebag again. He acted like he was actually sick. His vomit was green and vile-looking. I gagged.

Then, I saw one of my friends, Katie, walking in the parking lot towards the shop. She looked happy, and was walking a little dog. I turned to whoever I was standing next to and said
"How much you wanna bet Katie's gonna see that and throw up?"
Katie came in, saw the vomit on the carpet, and she gagged.

Then I remember talking to someone about how the villian was my neighbor, and my dad was a villian too, but he acted normal. It was weird. I talked about him going over to talk to the neighbor, and acting all normal about it, as if I didn't know what was going on.

Then, I felt myself transition into another dream. I then knew it was a dream. I was in the bonus room of my house, and decided to take charge of the dream, and try to get to Teraluna. I rubbed my hands together, and the dream got more vivid. I had never tried that before in a dream. I asked my dream guide, whom I still have yet to meet, to help me get to Teraluna. I started drawing a portal with my finger in midair. The edges didn't meet, so I had to fix it so the edges met. I tried to walk through it, and it got dark for a minute, but I was still in my house.

I then decided to try creating a portal on the wall. I thought that may be a bit easier. I drew a portal with my fingers, and touched it, concentrating on where I wanted to go. The portal rippled, then glowed with a white light. When the light disappeared, the portal was a golden door with intricate patterns carved into it. In the very middle, there was an eye. It looked like a real eye. I would compare it to a glass eye set in the middle of the door. I touched the top left corner of the door and concentrated on where I wanted to go. I then touched the eye.

The door didn't open, but I was then in the catacombs of some ancient Egytptian structure. There were other people there too, running around. There was also fast, Egyptian-style music playing. It was slmost kind of video game-esque.

Well, it's not Teraluna, but I decided to explore anyway. The room was dimly lit by torches on the wall. I ran through the bottom of this catacombs, and decided I needed to look the part. I looked down, and was wearing sandals on my feet, and Egyptian robes fluttered as I ran. Too awesome, I thought. Too awesome. I tried to enlongate my hair by feeling the ends and trying to imagine more hair, but for some reason, I couldn't do that.

I then remember seeing msyelf in a mirror. My robes were red and off-white. They were very flowy. I thought that was really neat, and I started to dance. I danced for a little bit, then decided to keep going.

I then remember being on a different floor of this catacombs-type place. I was looking over a balcony that went to the bottom floor. Things were a little more well-lit. On the bottom floor, I could see Chinese acrobats making a human pyramid. The floor down there was white. I decided to float down to the bottom. I felt like I was getting closer to my goal.

Then, I was standing in front of another door. I started to feel myself wake up. I did not want to, so I started to imagine myself on a beach on Teraluna, with the ocean spray in my face. Everything was black, as I felt the sensations I was imagining. I tried to open my eyes, but my real eyes started to open instead. I quickly shut them, and was then in small room with royal blue-tiled walls that had black markings in the middle of the tiles. It had tall ceilings. I saw a Coke machine on the left wall. Strange.

In the middle of the room stood Hyu. I walked up to him and gave him a hug. I looked at his face. It was so detailed. I looked into his eyes, and they were a very clear blue, almost turquoise. I started to see the glare in the corner of my vision, indicating that I was going to wake up. I did not want to again, and refused to by covering up the eye that the glare was coming from. The glare went away, and I was fully immersed in the dream again.
"You smell spooky"., said Hyu.
I told him that made sense, since I had been in the ancient Egyptian place. We continued to hug.
"Don't go nattin' on me.", he said, whatever that meant. I understood it to mean "Don't kiss me,"or something. I laughed and said he didn't have to worry about that. I was just happy to see him.

Then, I awoke. I could still feel us hugging.

I remember being at my old piano teacher's house. I then remember seeing some weird interstate exits, but they were only smaller, artistic models of them. They looked like slides with moving conveyer belts, and some blocks randomly placed on them. 2 girls slid down them, and hurt themselves as they hit the blocks that were in the middle of them.

I then remember seeing some old warehouse behind Goody's (clothes store). It was being advertised as a great place for kids to have birthday parties at, becuase you could put anything you wanted in them. I saw a skateboard ramp in there, and some arcade games.

Then, I walked around and saw my old friend, Alex, laying on a couch. he was wearing a grey sweat suit. I asked him if he was ok, and he said he had been sick. I told him to feel better, but instead of calling him Alex, I called him Dawson. I didn't realize my mistake until later, and I texted him and told him I was sorry for calling him the wrong name.

Then, I woke up in a car. I looked at my phone. it was it was 4 o'clock pm. I knew I was dreraming, because that was ridiculous. I got out of the car, and was in a city that was overlooked by hills. I approached a female DC who was walking down the street. I asked her a question, and she started to answer. Unfortunately, during her answer I woke up.

I quickly went back to sleep and re-entered the dream. I was still with the DC. Everything was black and white at first, then filled with color. I told the DC I was sorry, I was back, and she could continue talking. I remember flying at some point.

Then, I got distracted and lost lucidity and did who knows what till I woke up.

Dream - Lucid - AP

I was with a couple of other people. I'm not sure exactly where we were, but we were watching a strange movie. It started out with a guy laying in a canyon in a desert, who had no arms or legs. He was bleeding out his stumps, and moaning for help. He had been attacked by a dinosaur. I commented at this point:
"This is really gross.", I said.

Then, a girl came up to him. Apparently, she was known for seducing guys who were in a vulnerable place. She tried to help him. Now, I was seeing from her POV. I laid down with my legs by his so they looked like they were his legs. He hallucinated and thought they were, and put his stumps down on her legs, and screamed in agony as more blood seeped out of them. I had to look away at this point.

Apparently, she wasn't trying to seduce him. I then remember the end, with them walking together, and him having his arms and legs sewed back on. I had thought they were gone, and I asked someone if the girl had saved his limbs. I don't remember the answer I got.

Then, I remember something about it being a Christian movie.

I was in the parking lot outside the auditorium at my college. It was daytime, and I was walking to my class, but I needed to change clothes first for some reason. I started to do so in the parking lot, but then noticed that everyone driving by could see. I moved more inside the parking lot, behind some cars. I then saw a girl, Abby, that I used to work with a long time ago. She was changing clothes as well. She said hello to me, then we got in my car. She sat in the driver's seat, and I was in the back. She asked if she could drive to my house for some reason. I said yes, but we needed to be quick, because I had to get to class. She said ok, and drove to my house.

We got there, and after a few minutes of me being in my room and Abby doing who knows what, I noticed the clock. I was late for class already, and I got upset. I knew I needed a shower anyway, because I apparently hadn't had time to get one before I left.

I remember then having a huge wad of money hidden somewhere, I think in my old jewelry box, and I had to find a different place to hide it. I decided on hiding it in my bottom dresser drawer, under some towels and stuff. My mom was helping me put stuff away in the drawer, and I had to ask her to move some things around so the money would be concealed.

Then, I remember waking up on the floor in my bonus room. I had slept in there overnight for some reason. Shelly, a girl I work with, was in there doing something. Cleaning, I think. She went up to this stereo, and turned it on. I told her to turn it off, because I was going back to sleep. She turned it off.

I woke up in this situation a couple more times, then wondered if I was dreaming. I tried to read some text, I don't remember what or where, but it looked relatively similar both times I looked at it. I still felt like I was dreaming, so I got up. I saw myself in the reflection of the TV getting up. I walked past Shelly, and she didn't notice that I was up. I then went to the door, and tried to phase through it. I pushed myself through it into the hallway, confirming my suspicions that I was dreaming. I walked to the stairs, and remembered one of my goals: To share a dream with Hyu. I pushed my hand out in front of me, as if to create a portal, but I said "I want to meet Hyu!" And a strange portal started to appear. I jumped through it, and everything went black for a minute, but then I was just tumbling through the air in the hallway. I landed on my back.

I woke up for real for a minute, turned over, and went back to sleep.

I was in high school, doing the musical Cats. I didn't remember rehearsing it much, but we were performing. We had on these weird white costumes. They were baggy, and not very Cats-like at all. I had a part as a "Dream Girl", or something.

As soon as the play started, I was laying down on the ground, peeking out of the curtain, watching the play. I thought someone may be able to see me in the audience, but I paid no mind. I was watching a dance routine. I remember two little black girls dressed in tutus were doing ballet, and the high schoolers were dancing around and singing. It was a slow song.

I got up, and walked towards my friends, the other "Dream Girls" in the play, and asked them when our cue to go on was. They told me, and we were going on very shortly.

~

I woke up again in the bonus room. I suspected I was dreaming, so I did a reality check and counted my fingers. My right index finger looked funny, so I knew that I was dreaming, and left through the door.

I was then outside, in the cul de sac behind my house. It was dusk. I was riding on a rolling desk chair. I saw my old friend, someone I briefly dated, Alan, playing basketball, shirtless. I was behind him, watching him for awhile. He didn't seem to notice me. I decided to leave before he saw me watching him; I didn't know if he'd like the idea of someone spying on him playing basketball.

As I started to roll away, though, he got my attention. I did a reality check when he started talking to me by trying to poke my fingers through my hands. My finger trying to go through made my hands look like rubber, then one finally went through. We started to talk, and I asked him why he had wanted to date me before. He smiled and started mumbling some answer, it didn't make sense, so I asked him again. We were now standing in the street, with him leaning against the bed of a truck, and me standing in front of him. He smiled, and started to mumble a little again. I tried to understand what he was saying so I would remember upon waking, but I couldn't. He then said that he had been "unrealistic". Hmm. Interesting.

While I was talking to Alan, I noticed more and more people were around. It almost seemed as if we were in the middle of a crowd. I then saw, to my right, a young man about my age, leaning up against another truck bed. He was Asian, tall, skinny, and was wearing a tight grey shirt, a leather jacket, and forest green dress pants. I had a thought that it was Hyu, but I started talking to Alan again.

Then, the man got my attention. I went over to him. He had taken me by complete surprise. I then knew it was Hyu.
"Hyu? Is it really you? How did you find me?", I managed to get out.
"I had to.", he replied, as he grabbed me, and started walking. He seemed like he was on a mission of some sort.

We were then in a small room with a table. I don't know how we got there. There was a girl sitting in a chair to my left; she had wavy, dark hair pulled back into a ponytail. Her eyes were very big; her irises were heart-shaped. They were changing colors as I stared at them.
"You have beautiful eyes.", I said to her.
"It's because of you.", she said with a smile. At that moment, her eyes were cheetah-print with red patterns moving through them. They were gorgeous. I understood her to mean when she said "It's because of you" that whomever looked into her eyes affected their appearance. For some reason, this girl's eyes seemed very familiar to me.

I sat down in between Hyu and the girl. There were all these black papers all over the table. They were laminated with magazine cut-outs of letters all over them, scrambled up. Hyu told me I needed to decode them.
"Anagrams.", I thought to myself.
I had a pencil, but no paper to start trying to decode them with. I asked Hyu for some paper. He gave me a dark blue piece, but that wouldn't work. So then he gave me a brown piece. I told him that should be fine. I started to look at the anagrams, wondering where to even begin. There were so many, I didn't know where to start.

I then started to see a a glare on the page I was looking at. I looked up at Hyu, because I knew I was about to wake up. He looked back at me, and then, I lost the dream and woke up.

~

I woke up in my room, and I knew I was dreaming, but everything was all blurry and it was hard for me to keep my eyes open. The top half of my vision went black. I woke up.

~

I woke up in my room. I knew I was dreaming immediately. I had felt myself enter the dream. I got up out of bed, and walked into the hallway. The house seemed big and empty; all the furniture was gone. I then remembered my previous dream, and started yelling for Hyu.
"Hyu! Hyu! I'm back, where are you?", I yelled.
I then tried to draw a portal on the wall. I drew it with my finger, though the edges were not straight at all. As I completed it, I touched it. It rippled, and as it did so, it looked like oil with all the rainbow colors it reflected. I tried to enter it, but I don't remember what happened after I entered it. I think I just woke up again.
