{The date entry of this is wrong, I thought I'd share some of my experiences from before joining the forum!
This one was from around mid March 2012, I wrote it to my PC then, but I thought I'd share it now...}


(Induction type: DILD, Spontainous lucidity)



I'm stood out the open, in the daytime.
I've got a little open camp fire and some sort of animal hide wig-wam type shelter.
My camp is on top of a moorland embankment, the view to the front is to a valley below, while the view to behind is pine woodland.

It occurs to me that all this is 'wrong'.... I must be dreaming... A look at my BIG hands and fingers confirms this... Bam!!! (LUCID)

So, I'm out in the open... with clear daytime sky above me and in front over the valley below... Smell of pine from the trees behind etc...
... I'd allways wanted to try changing day to night or vice versa in a dream...
I tried a few things first that didn't work... Like...

• Verbal commands
• Trying to reach up and pull the sun out of the sky
• Covering my eyes, willing the sky to change and uncovering them again

Time to think latterally... I'm trying to turn day into night... I'll be winding time on a few hours doing that... Dreams are full of symbology... Hows about adjusting my watch, to 'wind on' time to turn day to night..
... For good measure the verbal command 'day to night' as well.

I put a finger through the glass faceplate of my watch, as if it wasnt there!!
I manually start winding the hands forward... Giving the verbal command as well...

The sun quickly sets to the horizon, at the valley, the sky grows dark, and the moon and stars rise
.. The night sky was never like I've seen it before, so 'intense' and beautiful.... I could even see the faint lines highlighting the constelations shapes...

I stare a the night sky, with the brilliant pin-point stars and constelations, wondering the marvels of the universe... I'm pointing out at the sky with an outstreched arm & finger to the constelations I recognise, saying there names. Where my fingers been, left a new star!! I try getting rid of a star, by 'rubbing it out' with my finger... that works!!!

Time to get creative on the night sky!! The Stick-man and smiley-face constelations had to be done!!!

I was happy drawing for a while, and then my dream world just got 'washed out' and faded to black...
... But I don't think I woke up in waking life...
