    1. 18.12.10, have been behind in journalling, bad me.

      by , 12-19-2010 at 12:42 PM
      Hmm. The first one involved visiting a city on an island, but unfortunately the island was raised (and balanced, eek) on a stone pillar a couple of hundred feet in the air. I decided not to visit, as I get vertigo and am scared of heights in my dreams. So I took the giant climbing rope with which people were supposed to visit, and played ultimate rope swing with it. Wheeee! I woke from a delicious sense of freefall.

      Second and third, don't remember. I've been sleeping in 2-3 hour shifts, had several over the last couple of days. I just can't keep track of everything, can I?

      Last sleep, I dreamed that I was attending a CLC church (nightmare fuel, for my mind: no good memories there) lunch before a big service, with my parents, my husband's grandmother, and my granddad. BTW, Granddad's still dead IRL. Grandma-in-law's still alive and awesome. My dad did something I can't remember, but I was so offended that I told him I didn't want to see him in public anymore today and I left.

      Next thing I know, Dad's driving me towards the big house that my husband and I just bought. While I was getting offended at CLC, my husband and our two future-cohabitants were getting all moved in. I was going home, but Dad keeps "missing" the house. He drives past it over and over and over, until in anger I get out of the car in a traffic jam (road is somehow full of RVs) and try to walk there. But now, it's suddenly on a 50 foot high plateau. Somehow I'm not bothered by the heights, and begin to climb with no trouble whatsoever up the cliffs. I get about halfway up, and wake up.

      This is very odd to me. IRL, I'm almost never this angry with my father. Since I started journaling, my mother finally left my mind and now Dad seems to be taking her place of sadism. Why???

      The two high goals remind me of a common theme in my subconscious: staircases. There is often a staircase, a long one, that I can never master. I've had missing stairs that couldn't be passed, endless stairwells, vertigo, and moving stairs throwing me off. A rope ladder is another climbing tool, and this time I simply dropped the goal and enjoyed the ride. Once I became angry and determined enough, I could scrap the stairs completely and make it up without trouble. I've made it to the top once, years ago, and what I found I'm still unready to discuss.

    2. Being the Chosen One, 55-65 minutes

      by , 12-19-2010 at 12:06 PM
      I am outside a ruined building (possibly the Colosseum). There are some smaller constructions in front of me (a miniature tower and a piece of wall). My friends break them accidentally and replace them.
      I go to the place from where they got the replacements. There is a (statue of?) a huge man who I know as the Emperor (I remember seeing him (or a statue of him, or him turned into a statue) with no head). I've seen him also in my other dreams (possibly the same place as this one).
      The next thing I remember is being at the ruined building. At least now it is not the Colosseum. I Buzz Lightyear and fly to the other side of the clearing. I go inside the building. The Emperor is there, in the form of a snake. He is enraged and hissing at me, because he thinks I'm going to take his place as the Emperor (because of the statue thing). I assume him I'm not going to take his place. He calms down a little bit. His assistant arrives and leaves with him. I jump off the window (I'm at the second floor), straight towards the ground. I turn my fall into a swoop just in the last second before hitting the ground. I fly outside the building (it is a square building with at least two floors and some towers and a square clearing in the middle). The Emperor gives me and some others invisible slingshots. There are some creatures we have to shoot at with them. I go into an impossible position, hanging between a door and the building's wall. I start shooting at the creatures (I can't remember what they looked like). I don't seem to hit them (the ammunition is also invisible, I even can't feel the slingshot), but they start to complain about someone shooting at them. They even look straight at me. A friend of mine appears. I start shooting at her too, but she doesn't notice it. I fly on top of the building. I stay there for a while and jump off the roof, shooting with the slingshot. Once again I barely prevent myself from hitting the ground. I fly to my friend. She tells me her mom, though she is mentally ill, is also a Chosen One. Her mom appears and leaves. I go after her. I go round a corner and almost run into her. I back up several steps, while she follows me. I ask her for advice in being the Chosen One. She looks very old, old enough to be my friend's grandmother, rather than her mother. I can't remember correctly what she answered.
      The dream gets mixed up with Eragon (in which magic is used by uttering words of the ancient language). She tells me they teach us youngsters wrong words. Then she starts speaking out an ancient poem with lots of words in it that haven't been used in hundreds of years. He takes me into a temple. There are lots of people in there. Where the altar would be, there is an ancient man, someone even older than the woman with me, lying in a hammock, which is held by assistants. We go to him. The woman tells me he is the father of the current pope, who is at least 300 years old, so the father is even older. The pope is not doing his duties well enough and as long as he remains the pope his father must take care of the pope's duties and for that he is way too old (pretty confusing). I take the hammock's other end and someone with me takes the other. I look at the ancient man as the woman explains me something. I say that he's quite heavy. The woman tells me he's four metres tall. He certainly isn't that tall but very tall indeed (over two metres). I bow and we leave. At the door I bow again and the people in the room applaud. We leave the building and the woman runs of in a superhuman speed. I follow her, but we run (and fly?) at same speeds so she keeps her distance of about ten metres from me. I realize she doesn't want me following her so I stop.
      I see my brother and my cousin playing a star wars game. My view shifts into the game. Now I'm again in the temple, but this time theres nobody or nothing in it. I have a double-bladed violet lightsaber. Darth Maul comes at me, but he doesn't attack me. Mace Windu is behind me. We attack him. Soon I abandon my lightsaber and start using the Force and my hands. After some minutes I win him. The dream ends. So basically I had lucid powers because I thought I was the Chosen One.

      I also had a lucid dream where I was playing the piano. The room was dark so I really couldn't see the piano. First I started playing an etude to check if the piano is in tune. The piece sounded correct, even though I started it about an octave too high. Next I tried Chopin's second nocturne. It didn't sound good so I started the piece over. This time I managed to play a few measures. The dream was very clear, I actually thought that I would wake up at any moment and that I also move my real body. Conclusion: playing an instrument in dreams is possible, but you'll really have to focus on what you're doing.

    3. 12/18/2010 - First Dream Journal Entry

      by , 12-19-2010 at 10:28 AM
      This is my first official dream in my dream journal. My dream recall isn't exactly strong, so I plan on focusing on strengthening my recall in the next couple weeks.

      12/18/20 - Snowy Fortress

      My dream began when I was in an area that I identified as Antarctica. I wasn't within my own body, but watching myself as though from overhead. I also recall that the dream was similar to a video game. I recognized a couple themes: Metroid, a bit of Borderlands, and an espionage-like feel.

      The dream started with a character I identified as a girl named Sam. She had really long blonde hair and was wearing a blue jumpsuit (thus Metroid). She, two other individuals that I never saw, and I broke our way out of a prison / base. I think it might of been from Inception. Sam knew where we were and what we were supposed to be doing, but I decided to go off on my own (despite disagreement from the heads-up display).

      I broke off from the three others and jumped off the cliff nearby. Sam was extremely displeased and voiced this through the radio to me. I realized that I had to do some sort of collection quest in order to return to the group. I looked to my right and found a Jeep and got in it. I drove through the snow and reached a kind of valley. I found and ran over both a goblin and a bunch of rocks that were housing some creatures, and then I got out and picked up something from the ground. I know it was supposed to complete my quest, but I can't remember what it was.

      I left the canyon and then began driving alongside the cliffs. I remember the terrain was jagged along the cliffs, and that there were plateaus right up against them. I started to follow them and then I woke up to my alarm.

    4. Suburbia to Solar System?

      by , 12-19-2010 at 08:42 AM
      This isnt the first time Ive become lucid, but its definitly the longest Ive been lucid in a dream..

      The moment I became lucid, I was on a nice, quiet suburban street (much like the street a few of my friends live together on)

      There were a lot of cars, but no people. I became ecstatic at the idea of being in a dream. Everything started to black out - so I stared at my hands to regain lucidity. It seemed to work.

      I decided to test out some powers I might be able to harness - I attempted to run, and eventually kept going faster until I reached superspeed, but the dream started to fade out, so I stopped.

      My mind (due to low-lucidity) started to wonder, although I was still aware. I started to think about Space and the stars (a topic Im really interested in exploring in my dreams) and focussed on a stone that was on the footpath - Everything turned black except the stone, which turned into a distant star, and I begun soaring towards the star through space at astronomical speeds.

      I slowed down and stopped in space. In complete awe at the solar system I was travelling through, I got too excited and woke.

      That, was my most recent, and most interesting lucid dream.

      I hope to have many more and evolve a lot of the themes I experienced!
    5. Asuka is such a sweetie!

      Harry Potter wants to watch some Harry Potter

      Me Nomad and Harry are in some field. We decide to take Harry to watch a harry potter movie from another dimension. We teleport to a theater and I am all excited. "I can't wait to see this again" I say, but i am distracted by seeing someone i know.

      A friend from high school is being chased around by a short woman holding onto him. He frantically wants her to go away. He runs outside and then walks in a moment later hand in hand with a different girl... his proper gf.

      A man walks into the lobby and stares at me. I walk over to him and he hands me a stone. He says "go back to Spencer," As I wake up. (the woman, who tells EVERYONE that she likes me, but when I am around she ignores me and acts too cool for me when I talk to her.)

      Asuka Barn... lol

      I'm in a large field in my inner world with Asuka. I want to stay with her but she orders me to look inside the barn. I ask why she won't go with me. She says Just go in and I'll understand.

      I go in and find it's a place that me and Asuka use to go to a lot. on the higher up parts all my clothes are neatly folded. I see she found my missing shoe and placed it there! I find a tape playing machine. I press play... and It's asuka singing to a kind of anime rock/pop backing. The songs are about me and her, and our love. I started welling up in tears... not sad.. but happy ones. she put this together for me so that i could remember something nice about her, which hasn't been happening much lately.

      More Asuka singing

      i'm drifting off again and I hear Asuka singing in my dream. She's saying "keep holding on, keep holding on,"

      many thanks asuka

      My alarm went off this morning to wake me up. I heard it in my dream. I looked at the clock.

      3:33

      Who the hell is calling me at 3:33 am! I thought as I woke up.

      It was my cel phone alarm. It was 6:30 am.

      So, my dream started out with me and my wife and a friend, don't remmeber who walking down a street I had a paper rout one called cass street. at the end of the street, there was what i percieved a haunted house but when we went inside, and walked in the front door, you got in the building by sliding down a huge inflatable slide. we did, i don't remember doing it but did. I then walked around fo ra while and realized i was dreaming, I was kind of amazed at the realisim of all my dream charecters and how they seemed to interact perfectly with their environment.

      I then thought " i have to find a mirror" i went into a bathroom and tried to stick my hadn through the mirror. I failed. all i could feel was the mirror. I then decided to try again. I got in but don't remember it and It made me lose my lucidity. it sucks

      I then remmeber leaving and trying to find my wife because she left eearlier then me

      I was watching something about some basketball player who was died. I think they were showing highlights. I remember telling who ever I was with that I knew someone who was just as fast as that guy.

      scene change

      I'm in this room with my friends D, A, D and D and and maybe some more random DCs. Theres also this Asian girl there. I've never been in this room before. It's long has several arch shaped windows with blinds. tvs, light brown carpeting...the cheap kind like they use at schools. None of this is adding up. I'm near this black refrigerator having a conversation with her. There just seemed to be something odd that stood out about her. She had on a peach tank top and white shorts. She had wavy brown hair to about the middle of her back, and it had a couple of blonde streaks. I don't know what we were doing, but I do remember asking her questions. I asked her name twice, and I think she said it was "Chadra", and she told me it meant "peace" or "river". We ended up having sex in front of everyone, and I knew it had to be a dream.

      After that I started testing out things. Making the blinds rise and fall, and flip. Shooting energy blasts, and making the antenna's that were sticking out from the tv's in there collapse. I think I flew around there as well. I remember something about telling myself to make sure I document everything, like I was going to come back there. The people who were in that room kept changing from time to time. Various DC's that seemed pretty intelligent.
