    Dream Palace:



    Welcome to my Dream Journal! ヾ(´¬`)ノ

    「ケイトリンの夢の世界」

    ...このページは私の夢ジャーナルです。

    I discovered lucid dreaming June 10th, 2008. I was actually reading the Wikipedia entry on Sleep to find out what the average amount of sleep needed for my age was. From there, I followed the link to Dream because I suddenly realized I hadn't remembered my dreams in years. I'd forgotten about dreaming entirely. Once I got to Lucid Dreaming, I didn't look back... especially since I remembered for the first time in a long time a couple of special dreams I'd had in the past.

    Old forum DJ.

    LDs:9~

    DILDs = 9~

    (I need to go through my old journal and current one and get the exact number.)

    My Dream Signs:

    Vehicles (particularly accidents)
    Children
    Animals
    School/old class-mates
    Fandom-related stuff
    Immorality (stealing mainly)
    Stores
    Old places or people (school, residences, family I don't see often)
    Food
    Dirty bathrooms
    Wandering around (buildings and such)

    Past Dream Signs:

    Disasters (most often tornadoes or something I can't remember)

    *

    Apparently I can't settle on what to call the people I know in my dreams from WL, but here's a tentative list (I'll probably go back and edit past entries later):

    Sister = Rane
    Sister's ex-boyfriend = Matthew
    Aunt (older) = Sarah
    Aunt (younger) = Melly
    My best friend = Pillywiggin, though I think I use her real name (Nicole) more often...
    Old school friend #1 = Ella
    Old school friend #2 = Liz
    Old male classmate (crush) #1 = Jake
    My cat = Jazzy
    Our grey cat = Smoke
    Our white/orange cat = Spice

    1. 3 fragments

      by , 03-20-2014 at 01:31 AM (Keitorin's Dream Log)
      Fragment 1. Trying to make peanut butter. I put in various peanut-butter flavored things but it’s not coming together well. I wonder if it’s not just easier to use something like jarred peanut butter or PB2.

      Fragment 2. Loitering around outside our apartment. I look around to see if anyone is around. I spot an open envelope in one of our parking spaces and go over to pick it up.

      Inspiration: Me looking at our mail yesterday.

      Fragment 3.
      -A princess is kidnapped and kept in a cabin. When she tells her kidnapper that she’s one of twelve sibling princesses, he’s surprised/disappointed.
      -She gets rescued/swept away by her mother and father, who are revealed to her to be some kind of ghostly bird-like creatures.

      Notes: I’ve been dreaming of our house lately and it’s weird for me, since I normally do it so rarely – but I think I can attribute it to practicing awareness (even though I already had to be aware when I made the house into one of my memory palaces in the past).

      I slept deeply last night and woke up one other time without recall. I have two days break from exercise starting tomorrow so hopefully I’ll get some good rest. Also worried I’m sleeping too much (about 9-10 hours apparently), and that I should stop drinking my energy drink.

    2. 'Survival' card game

      by , 03-19-2014 at 02:04 AM (Keitorin's Dream Log)
      Fragment 1. Some kind of food thing.

      Fragment 2. Me and Rane are going through things in my room. She’s looking through the green binder and I briefly wonder ‘why she has to go through my things’.

      I find a pack of Uno cards and wonder if any are missing. ‘Survival’ is written on the bottom side of them. I realize it’s not Uno. There are dinosaur themed drawings on the cards and a stegosaurus. ‘Sagittarius’ is written on the other side.

      I show them to Rane.

      Inspiration: I played Skip-bo with Rane the other day, thought it seemed a lot like Uno when I saw the deck.

      Notes: I had the hardest time getting up enough to remember anything. The only reason I can imagine why is because of the rough night and going a little overboard with exercising. *yawns*
    3. House project and bike race

      by , 03-16-2014 at 08:47 PM (Keitorin's Dream Log)
      Notes: I tried to do a MILD, but when I woke up after 5 hours and did my mantra, I could not get back to sleep! Even after I gave up and hoped fo a DILD instead. Maybe it was partly due to excitement, but it was also unusually hot for being so early in the morning (3am). Of course this affected the rest of the night because I was more tired than usual. :/

      Fragment. Sooomething about eating salt…like, right out of a measuring spoon.

      Inspiration: Either from me thinking about the sea salt I got recently or me wondering where the salt went in the chapter of One Piece I read yesterday.

      Dream 1. In a house, a girl tells me that ‘she [the house owner] didn’t know they were going to be like this’. I look into another room where a big group of people are partying it up. Apparently there was supposed to be some house project going on.

      I’m talking to the girl and she shows me how these two guys (can’t remember their names, they were generic like Mark and Carl) were credited. I say something like ‘even though they didn’t do a good job?’ and she replies that it was done by the company, these people didn’t have a say.

      Then there was something about another girl coming in, and this girl I’m talking to says the one guy was bad, but ‘you [other girl] need to tell the other one you loooove him’. Other girl leaves the room.

      -Jump-

      N’Doch from the Dragon Quartet series is driving a bike down the road (possibly having left the house in my place). He’s going pretty fast, buildings and scenery passing by. At one point he looks to the left and sees some tombstones. This part was pretty vivid!

      He notices some other guys surrounding him; I think they were on other vehicles. They’re challenging him. He’s reluctant, but he starts going faster. He turns the corners so fast and expertly.

      There’s only one guy left, but soon enough N’Doch is flying ahead of him. The guy is surprised when N’Doch turns right instead of left. He thought N’Doch lived that way or something.

      N’Doch loses the guy as he pulls up to a building and drives into it. He drives the bike up a few flights of stairs and through some rooms full of stuff, before he comes to his pad.

      He climbs up onto an area and a grey cat comes up to him. He says something like ‘you can sleep here’ and puts it down nearby.

      Inspiration: Finished Dragon Quartet recently. My cat Smoke is gray. Bike might come from thinking about the bike trigger in my dream palace.
