    Please read before checking out Dream Journal

    Thank you for clicking my DJ. I am currently working on a more sophisticated way to read it, and any comments would do a lot to speed up the process, since I am not lacking time to do this, just the willingness. If you have any questions regarding specific dreams, please ask in those specific entries and like the dream (this will let me know that there is a new comment here and is actually pretty much dream journal etiquette).

    You can read my DJ any way you want, but this will outline a more chronological way, other than just “When I felt like writing it”. If you have any specific requests or questions about techniques, feel free to PM me or check out some of my started threads.

    My dream world is Zödra (ö = ALT+0246) and was put together from my collection of dream memories as well as some persistent dream characters. I believe that the majority of the continuity in Zödra is due to the fact that I connected all the ideas in waking and believed them to be connected. Now that I believe that, I can alter it during waking and change a few easy rules in waking at will so that I will have a more fun experience there. A persistent dream world is something that has been used by countless dreamers and the idea of persistence has been in effect for hundreds of years. I was getting ready to give up on lucid dreaming until I ran into this:
    Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views - Hyu's Adventures - Dream Journals
    Specifically this post:
    Persistent realms and other lucid dreaming techniques I use. - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream ViewsIt talks about a world that is always persistent and actions have consequences, and if you die, you can’t come back. After finding it, reading it, and loving it, I redoubled my efforts to LD.
    My realm is very important when reading any of my dreams ever, because after I found out about it, and establishing the rules, every dream I ever had became important. Here are the rules that haven’t changed since the beginning:

    Zödra is a persistent dream realm, it is not a persistent realm
    This simple addition of a word means that the DCs are DCs, not persistent characters, the places are dream places, not persistent. The persistence comes from specific individuals.

    Anyone that realizes that it is a dream while in Zödra becomes persistent, and their actions also become persistent. This includes actions taken without knowing it is a dream.
    So any other DC that realizes that it is a dream will become persistent and with each place that it goes, that place becomes persistent. While knowing it is a dream, it is possible also to go to a place and it not be persistent, but that takes actual work, default makes it persistent. Also, since I have been lucid before in Zödra, then any dream that I can remember is also persistent, including dreams from childhood before I lucid dreamed. I actually learned this as opposed to making this rule, by accidentally visiting places from childhood dreams, and by talking with persistent characters.

    Any abilities you learn inside Zödra stay with you and cannot be lost, though they can be suppressed by other items, people, abilities, or if you springboard off of Zödra into a different realm.
    Long description is self explanatory.

    If you tell a DC that they are dreaming, then this does not make them persistent, they have to find it out on their own.
    Found out through trial and error. If I tell a DC that it is dreaming, then it won’t be the next dream that I meet it. If a DC knows that it is dreaming when I meet it, then I will more than likely see them again. This should be superseded by the ability that one persistent evil character I know has, but I have yet to try it, he can change someone’s awareness levels if they are not actively protecting their awareness.

    So these are kind of the observed rules. They lead to a lot of fun times, and other conclusions, but moving on! Not all the dreams I want on here are on here yet, and I have gotten a lot better at dream goals, so I am expecting most of these to be updated often. Also, there are stars… you know, for you. ☆★☆★☆★☆★

    As you can see, I don’t have many links yet. Haha. Will be adding these as soon as possible. A lot of the Zödra dreams have been written in some weird places and will have to be scavenged and written in the DJ added to the chronology and its category. Should be pretty cool. I am hoping to have a DJ entry for each one of these sometime instead, but we will see.

    1. Two Weeks of Dream Time. Non lucid ★★★★★

      by , 03-19-2013 at 04:16 AM (Zödra)
      Before starting this dream I want to say that I am really in love with my wife, and she is the most beautiful woman I have ever met. This is actually relevant to my dream, so don't think I am being crazy sappy. I love her personality more than any other person I have met, so that is why this dream is soooo weird.

      Day 1:
      starting off, I am going on some sort of strange vacation. Don't know how long I will be gone, but I don't have any lodgings at first because the "credit company that is paying for this" hadn't given us a room yet. I am with a few other guys and one girl. We were in a huge mall and just kind of wondering around the first day. No where to stay because the "credit company" had kind of forgotten about us. They had a booth at the mall that I will return to later. The first day we all split up and tried to find a place to stay. Don't remember finding any though. I think I just stayed at the mall.

      Day 2:
      We met up and all walked around the mall together. The one girl in the group looks exactly like my wife and acts exactly like her as well. Very strange thing to meet. We talked for a long amount of time and I could tell she could like me (easy to tell since she acts just like my wife). She was interested a lot in the fact that she was exactly like my wife, and about my life. Talked with her pretty much all of the day. Went around to the credit place as well and went to a few places around town for lunch and dinner. Normal places to eat.

      Day 3-6:
      Pretty much like Day 2 :/ Not much difference except the getting to know the girl and talking with the other people more. Pretty much living at the huge mall there and actually having a great time even though we were homeless. Just paying for food isn't that bad.

      Day 7:
      Got a place to stay! The credit people finally found a place for all of us to stay. The only problem is (if you watch any anime or read manga you know where this is going ) there is only two rooms and she. 1 bed in one room, 2 in the other, 6 people, one girl. The other guys were a bit creepy, actually a few of them were people I used to know, and 2 of them are just creepy friends I know. haha. Anyways, you know what it is like when meeting someone that you just "click" with, hanging out, talking all the time, staying up late at night talking.

      Day 8-12:
      Hanging with the people for a long time, every day. Meeting new people at the mall and the "credit place" was taking care of all the meals while we were in town since we were basically on the street the first week. They had a bunch of weird games at the specific place that they let us play for free. Here is the best one:
      Laser Tag Hunting
      Hunting different animals in the mall with laser tag. There is parts that are like "the wild", but the best version is the one that you just go through the mall. Started noticing all the different fake animals flying around with targets on them. Don't know exactly how they got the birds to fly, but I played this game most days and multiple times a day.

      The rest of them were a collection of games from carnivals and Zelda games (You know the ones!)

      Some fun times! Pretty much each day was close to the same, so they blur together, and you probably know how hard it is to recall specific conversations from a dream.

      Day 13:
      Hanging out with some random guy that came to the mall. He was telling me about something at the mall he loved doing. He took me across the mall. We were running (normal for me to run from one place to another). I was on the second floor and watched as a lady that looked like Meredith from the office run as well. She must have hit a slick spot because she slid and landed flat on her face. I started laughing a ton.

      We started going to the credit place. I told him that I had been there quite a few times and then we went to dinner with my group and told him our story.

      Night of the 13th:
      Gotta remember a few things here. Looks like my wife, acts like my wife, been sleeping in the same bed for a week, not been sleeping with my wife in two weeks.

      After a long day of hanging at the most awesome mall in the world I get to my room. She is laying in the bed under the covers. I get in bed with the light still on and she starts talking to me.
      "It is really weird that your wife looks exactly like me." She says.
      "Yeah... Well accept she is pregnant with my daughter." I say.
      "Then this makes me feel a little bad about this, but I can't really help it." She flips the covers off and everything goes black. The light illuminates her standing on the bed somehow. She is wearing a blue maid outfit.
      Want into an LD?-blue-rose.jpg
      ^^That color blue. She is staring at me with those "Come hither" eyes. She is ridiculously beautiful and I am really worried that I can't stop myself. I am thinking of what to say and hope she doesn't jump me, because I can stop myself from attacking her. If she jumps on me... I know I can't stop her. As I am contemplating I notice that her face starts changing and getting more and more make up on until she doesn't look like my wife at all. Then I kind of blanked out. Nothing happened though. :/

      Day 14
      I woke up the next day and I took the train to the mall. I was running to get some breakfast with my friend K and then I saw the gal that looked like meredith run and fall on her face again. This time I couldn't help myself I fell on the ground laughing. I couldn't even breathe. I am sorry, watching people wipe out in person is just one of the best things to see. I went to the credit place to check out and head home. Wake up.

      Notes about the dream:
      Same mall as a couple other dreams have been in in my past. A few non lucids and 2 lucids. I have only been there at night before. All really memorable dreams. Crazy crazy dreams. There is a movie theater that only runs at night and there are about a million small businesses and a lot of them are crazy and the building would shift sideways and you would fall on the wall. You really can't go to the mall unless you are actually young and in good shape or you can get injured by the constant running and the weird stores. I plan on going there in some lucids. Being in there for 2 weeks was amazing.
