    The Erratic dreams of StaySharp

    1. There is no Dream Guide

      by , 04-23-2013 at 12:41 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      For some reason I can't really recall the first part of this dream or how I got lucid in the first place, kinda weird as I was lucid, and with some good quality as well.

      My recall started when I was looking at the seat of the living room of one of my prior homes in M.
      The dream could have started somewhere entirely different, and I'm sure that I was lucid for some minutes already and that I did something else, also I know that my girlfriend was in the room and that for once she didn't just exist, but we were actually talking about a lot of stuff.

      I looked up from the seat I was staring at (something was lying on it but I don't know what it was) so now I was seeing the aquarium in the back of the room. My mind was clear and this time I wanted to summon my dream guide for real. I focused my mind and clarified what my dream guide should be and do, and then tried it. Even though I knew I had quite a bit of control all I got was a piece of wood... I then tried to pull a person out of it in case someone was hiding in that shape, again without success, it was indeed a dead piece of wood. Then there was a weird scene with some tiny cassettes I can't explain, but I know that they told me that as a matter of fact I don't have anything like a actual Dream Guide.


      Maybe my girlfriend is my Dream Guide and I should try to teach her how to make me lucid in dreams and stuff like that. Maybe I should scrap the idea of a Dream Guide in my dreams altogether in favor of focusing on something else. Oh and the kind of dream guide I was talking about is something internal, not a spirit guide. I already wondered whether my summon attempts maybe went in that direction or whether I maybe should try to summon a spirit guide intentional.

      Anyway, the fact that I had a lucid so fast again is a good sign, it's now going up for me and I have a little hope that it will never go down again. Also I woke up a lot more often and can recall at least 2 more dreams as well as being yet a little step closer to WILDing thanks to talks about not trying to stay aware but simply choosing to do so, it really made more of a difference to take that approach than I even was expecting.

    2. First lucid induced through hypnosis

      by , 03-26-2013 at 01:28 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      Before falling asleep I was listening to a hypnosis Session of Jody Whiteley from youtube. It was this one to be precise: Sleep Hypnosis Easy Lucid Dreaming - YouTube

      Spoiler for Beginning of the dream (Sexual Content):

      TL;DR of above: I had sex with an unknown girl.

      After some time I heard about someone who was now being searched europe-wide for impregnating some random girl, and that person was me. There was an high bounty on my head (12500€, or something like that, maybe 10x as much) and I was really worried about the Situation. Some time later I was in a room and thought about the situation when I came to the conclusion that I never touched anyone apart from my girlfriend, and that I'd never do that without a really good and strong reason either. Let alone impregnating anyone, as I REALLY HATE babies entirely, not to mention I'm concerned that our planet is overpopulated anyway.
      At that point I already knew I was lucid, and did a nose-pinch RC to confirm that.
      I applied what I heard in the Hypnosis video, as I got lucid I tried to react to the situation with detached interest. I don't think that made a lot of difference, but I guess it improved stability at least a little.
      I immediately went out to search for my dream guide again, and stopped in front of a big screen-like thing which displayed different landscapes, soon after I woke up.

    3. Lavender sky

      by , 09-11-2012 at 05:08 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      After a really long dry spell of lucids with some quality I had this dream, which is in many ways a good step forward for me.

      I was walking around in the town I lived in before, it was slightly dark and it felt really empty, but it was a pleasant atmosphere. The general color scheme was very bluish, and the sky had a light lavender with darker blue clouds. I turned around a corner to the school I was in before (BKB) and for some reason I suddenly knew I was dreaming. I was pretty offline though, as though I was sleeping inside of the dream, but the routines I trained over the past month kicked in and I remembered I should stabilize myself in the dream when I get lucid. I did so and pulled together all my focus, then I started to walk towards the school, shouting out for my dream guide. I didn't have a lot of power in my voice and there was no response, so I walked a bit further and it became quite dark. I used Lumos one time to light up the place but it didn't last long so I somehow got the idea to summon a "Battle Mag-Lite", a 2m long version of a normal Mag-Lite. I saw some weird person with a futuristic looking armor behind a force field. Then I woke up at once and couldn't get back in.


      By the way, if you happen to read my dream journal, this is the first entry I made after moving. So when I say hometown now, it has a different meaning than it had before this entry. If I happen to dream about one of the old towns I will specifically say so.

    4. The weirdest cat and some problems doing my stuff while lucid

      by , 06-18-2012 at 02:30 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      I was in my secondary home and something made me lucid (the dream was long and I don’t remember what it was). I was thinking about what I had to do and put great effort into staying lucid. I was thinking about finally summoning my dream guide but my parents tried to get my attention, I managed to ignore my mother, doing a reality check and saying I'm lucid, but for some stupid reason my father managed to get my attention long enough to make me do something related to a delivery. I went outside and there was this black cat, the fur on its head which should be covering the ears looked pulled down, making the cat look like it had 4 ears, it looked fairly weird. I tried to ignore it to get the stuff I was doing done to proceed with my dream goals. It took me a lot of minutes and outside I was throwing some kind of letter into a box. And just when I went back to start calling my dream guide I woke up.

    5. First lucid with full clarity of mind

      by , 03-29-2012 at 05:12 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      For a Reason I don’t remember I did a reality check, and noticed I could easily breathe through my pinched nose so I immediately became lucid. I did some short stuff in my house (secondary) and I was trying my voice out, it was strange and it did feel more like I was only thinking but after a short moment I already managed to be confident in my voice. I went outside and this time I really prepared for the WWS, it was night and I could see the stars. I focused and took my stance, slammed my palms together and screamed out: “World Severing Seal”, some 2 seconds nothing happened and then I saw something above the clouds and a huge mass of pillars started impacting the ground counterclockwise around me, and the ritual itself indeed made my mental state which was already pretty clear completely clear. They were I guess taller than 100m and mostly orange with a lot of complexions varying with each pillar, they must’ve been around 30.
      Then I decided to call for my DG again, so I simply screamed: “DREAM GUIDE!” out into the night in a heaven’s piercing voice, and something happened immediately. What I actually just noticed afterwards is that the sky suddenly turned day bright and the scenery changed as well. What I noticed within the dream is that the earth was trembling for a moment and the one thing I was looking at was this yellow bunch of energy particles starting to accumulate, sounding and looking somewhat similar to the Ultima spell in FF8, I was really excited and a bit cautious about whatever I was looking at, but even through the excitement the lucidity remained perfectly intact. But as I got closer I noticed there were 2 spheres (the other was behind) and they seemed to be out of sync, not allowing whatever was going on to progress. I thought something of how the Rotation of the spheres was a problem and suddenly was emerged in fixing the problem, and I was watching something with a bunch of people, at first it had to do with the spheres and the rotation. From this point on I got distracted and my lucidity started to fade ever so slowly over time. The dream did progress like that for quite a few minutes, and then I was emerged in a really odd game were I had to flip this sensor probe in strange ways and I started to question the reason of that. Then the dream started to fade and the lingering spark of lucidity immediately catches up to it but too late, and that’s how I wake up. Still the moment I type this down I feel really great.

      This dream was somewhat long enough to make me forget the first part before doing the RC and there’s a small gap and a few inconsistencies after the RC, like how I know I said something specific, but not what. I’m pretty sure I did the RC for a specific reason as well, unlike in most of my other dreams where I become lucid through an RC.

      After over 25 lucid dreams I was questioning how long it would take to finally have my first lucid with a completely free mind and here it was, I even managed to stabilize enough to get excited without impacting my lucidity at all. Though I got distracted again in the end (which was what weakened my stabilization).





      On a side note I also had a pretty lascivious dream right before falling back to sleep for the lucid one above.

    6. Soaring above scorched grounds

      by , 10-18-2011 at 10:31 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      The dream was beginning with me being in a building, I kinda thought of a school but judging by my clothes (only swimming pants) I guess it was also a swimming bath. Some dude was joking around with his swimming glasses and had some soft pads in there. He was making some joke about boobs but I wasn't really interested in whatever he was doing there. I explored the area in search for a useful bathroom but unlike the building which was in a normal state, the bathrooms looked horrendous, each one in a special way. The last one I remember was especially bad. All lights were wasted and everything was covered with 50% rust, and there was this feeling of danger.

      The dream faded in quality producing a gap in my recall.

      After a while I was in some sort of open building, more like a garden, plants of all types everywhere covering even big parts of the walls. I was in the pedentive of a small dome, sorta like this:

      From there I could look through a hole onto a round table in the dome below. I had some bad quality again and the only thing I remember is that
      something made me know I'm lucid, but again I didn't also understand I'm lucid.

      I found myself sitting at this round table with my girlfriend (looked just slightly different, darker red hair). I was looking back into some other part of the building as I saw some people chasing a sort of living green tumbleweed with roses, they did it to save their lifes. Caught by this WTF-moment I spoke out "I must be dreaming". And then vividness hit me in the face like a ion storm, suddenly also understanding I was dreaming I screamed out the same thing again. I thought about calling a dream guide, but my girlfriend said "Took you long enough", making me assume she might've been my dream guide that moment. The scene drastically changed.

      I found myself in a ridiculous huge landscape, with reddish-brown ground and small rivers of lava everywhere. The ground was uneven, hills and mountains were scattered everywhere. The urge to fly hit me and I instinctively raised my arms to the side and jumped from the hill I was standing on, gliding barely a few meters above the ground. I didn't feel any air pass, but except for that it was pretty realistic.
      (I had some doubts about flying because I've seen stories about failing attempts as well as guides on DV, but my confidence in my instinct was stronger)
      I heard my girlfriend/dream guide say something like "You can do it, but together we can fly even higher". I soared above the next hill and spotted a mountain with strange statues and wanted to take a look at it, so I circled around it, rising upwards in the process. The statues loooked like they were for some deity, made by a long extinct civilization, some of them being a few hundret meter high. I also saw some geometrically impossible stone shapes.
      Somewhere close to the top I spotted a different part which resembled a part of a room, with completely different, comparibly small figures. They kinda reminded me of an odd type of horror movie (not a real one) that was however pretty cool and had a message to it. With that the dream fades...
