I couldn't remember my dreams. I might throughout the day, but if not, oh well. I tried to find Kaomea again, no luck.
I didn't get to sleep as much as normal today, but I will probably get a nap later to make up for it. In any case, I have a couple short fragmented dreams, but nothing big. Hopefully the fun, vivid dreams will happen when I get my last couple hours of sleep in this afternoon. Dream One: On a whim, since I haven yet to become fully lucid in a dream, I tried what I think might be called a WILD, where I laid in bed and tried to picture what I wanted to dream, and stay conscious when I slipped into sleep. I don't really remember much of the dream. I think there was a car in the dream at one point. The only clear impression I have of the dream is running around with a guy and a girl around my age. I feel like we were searching for something and/or trying to protect someone. I woke up feeling really happy, so it couldn't have been a bad dream, but it just completely eludes me as to to what happened. Dream Two: I am sitting in a car,. It's one of those teeny tiny compact cars, and it kind of reminds me of a Volkswagen beetle. No sooner do I find myself in the car, the thing starts filling up with water! There's no rain or water outside the car, just on the inside. I open the car door and crawl out, but the water doesn't empty out, it stays in the car and keeps filling up. As if there's some sort of invisible water barrier holding water in the car. I notice there's a car beside mine, that looks like mine only a different color. I think one was red or green, and the other one was blue, but it's hard to remember. A girl climbs out of the other car, and I immediately recognize her as being with me. I can't recall her name or anything, but I'm sure I know her and have spent the entire day with her. She starts cursing. I ask what's going on, and she tells me that a spell was cast on the cars to fill them with water and slow us down. She grabs a phone and calls for a tow truck. It appears instantly. The tow truck moves our cars out of the way and into a grassy yard. I walk over to my car, and I think it was blue. I open the door thinking the water will stay inside like before, but it doesn't. Water pours out of the car and makes a big puddle on the ground. The puddle is clean, and I notice somehow a kiddie pool has appeared under the door and caught all the water in the car, so my feet aren't even wet. The other girl calls out that the spell has weekend, but we still can't drive the cars far until everything dries out. She pulls her car forwards and angles it so the sun is shining into the open door, and I do the same. Then I take off my shoes and walk back to the kiddie pools. Suddenly I'm in a bathing suit. I dip my feet in the kiddie pool and the water is very warm and comfy. I think that since we can't go anywhere until the car dries out, I might as well relax for a while. Then I wake up. Dream Three: I dream that I am in the old house I lived in with my grandma when I was a teenager. I'm sleeping in my bed, but my little boy is there, sleeping in the big bed with me. I wake up, and decide to go get a drink of water. When I get into the kitchen I see movement in the sun room. I walk into the sun room, and in the predawn light find my best friend Ambies in her pajamas as if she had been sleeping in the bed, only she was sitting up looking around. I ask her if she's ok, and she says she's scared. She heard a faint creaking door, and then a very scary scream. She said if she heard the door creak, it had to be one of the neighbors close by, and since she heard a scream if scares her that something bad has happened to someone, and if so whoever hurt them might come over and hurt us since we're so close. I'm a little unnerved by this myself, so I peek through the curtains trying not to disturb them as much as possible in case anyone's watching from outside. I don't see anything but woods, so I try to relax and tell her it must have been a bad dream. I go to the bathroom, then go back to the bedrooms. This time, instead of going to my bedroom, I go into my brothers room. My brother isn't there, but my grandma and my daughter are and they are sleeping in what should be his bed. I peek through the window in that room, and see a white dog in the woods. It reminds me of a white German Shepherd I've seen. It digs around in the bushes a minute, then turns and sits down, looking out across the yard. I leave the room trying not to wake anyone up, and then go back to my room. I peek out my window, and see that it's raining. The neighbors across the street have their garage and front doors standing wide open. I wonder it that's where the scream came from. I watch as a man in a suit and a round dress hat walks into the house with a briefcase. I find it odd he doesn't wipe his feet as he goes in. I yawn and decide to go back to sleep. As soon as I lay down my little boy rolls over and buries his face in my back. I wake up.
Good morning, everybody. Dream #1 I was out in front of my great grandmother's house in the daytime. I stood looking in through her front window, which IWL was too high for me to look right into. My great grandma appeared in the window. I probably knew that she was dead. I think I had the feeling that this was either a dream or some kind of paranormal experience allowing me to see my grandma. So I just told myself to keep calm and let things happen. My grandma slid up the window, as if this were a double-paned window, which it was not IWL. I believe I asked my grandma how she was doing. I didn't believe she would give me an answer, as my "imagination" wouldn't be good enough to "create" a spontaneous answer from her. But my grandma did answer. She very gently said she was doing fine, but that she was here more to get an idea of how I personally was doing. She told me I should be more concerned about that as well. My grandma said she had to go take care of something in the house. She may have directed me to come into the house. I was now in the house, alone my grandma's "guest room," which I spent a lot of time in as a kid. The lights may have been off, but there was natural light coming into the room. Suddenly I was aware that my mom and my oldest nephew were under the bed. I could hear them talking. I must have felt that they weren't actually quite my mom and my oldest nephew. I felt like they were supposed to scare me somehow. The lights now went out in the room. I could hear a switch click -- like the daylight coming in through the windows was controlled by a light switch. The room was now dark as night, with just a bit of light coming from the hallway. My nephew's voice began laughing insidiously, like he was really trying to scare me. I got the feeling that he wasn't really my nephew, but a demon. I yelled at the voice, "I'm not afraid of you! You can't scare me!" I got the feeling that the body for the voice had actually transformed into a monster like a Chinese dragon, with something of a human body, and that the monster would soon jump out from under the bed to attack me.
Yesterday I was up till a little bit after noon, so.... I slept hard. No dreams really I'm probably gonna pass out here in a bit... wake up and pass out for an attempt. Don't have work till Friday for all I know, so i've got some time to experiment.
Katsuno's Dreams 1st: It was early in the morning and I was inside my car to drive to school. Suddenly I saw a girl from my class walking down the street. I asked her where she is going and she said she always walks to the school. I looked on my watch (I don't have one IRL) and noticed that I still got plenty of time. I asked her if I could walk along with her so she doesn't have to walk alone. She said yes and we walked towards our school. We talked about some things regarding class and then she said that we could also pick up my crush. I don't know what happened after that and the next thing I remember is arriving at our school. The dream scene changed 2nd: I was now at home. For some reason we had a huge garden with wheat growing on it. There was another guy and he looked like he was from an Anime. We had the duty to grow the wheat so we could feed the villagers (for some reason we were their owners lol). The guy who was with me suddenly started to take money for the crops. I told him he can't do this and he started to get angry. He took a weapon and tried to attack me. I ran away to the garden and harvested all the wheat within a couple of seconds. I took it and ran away to a neighbour. He was at home with his brother and I told them to hide the crops. The recall gets bad and the next thing I remember is my neighbours fighting with the guy and loosing. The dream scene changed again 3rd: The location was a beach. Everywhere where hot girls in bikinis and there were some weird machines. The dream was pretty stupid and I can't really describe what happened. Just after I arrived at one of the machines the girls began taking their clothes of and having sex with each other. I was like "Wtf?!" and I woke up. 4th: I was playing Minecraft with some of my friends. We built ourselves a house and I noticed that there was a dragon's nest nearby. I destroyed it and the Mother arrived. She was really angry and I ran away. We fought against her with Bow & Arrow and I woke up again.
Well, my dream recall really gets better, tonight I dreamed 2 dreams Tried to attain lucidity, but didn't happened. First dream was somehow about a telesell thing and basejumping. I don't know much about it. The second dream was about something at a show, I wanted to buy a protractor or so, and I opened the boxing and the protactor was blank with no markers and a security guy came to me and took me to the police. Don't know, didn't shoplifted something in Real Life and didn't commited any crimes. Really streange. But the recall gets better....
Blue Hands It feels like I'm in a game of San Andreas. I run around on the streets till I find long hummer and steal it. I see some people on the street are hurt so I assume that emergency medical vehicle should be right around the corner, and I'm correct. It's stuck in the traffic, but I get out of my hummer and steal the emergency medical vehicle. Just after driving a little bit more down the streets, I see a tall buss, and now I want to take that, so I do it. Now I am driving the opposite way in the streets and then I find a Pay'n'Spray. The Pay'N'Spray is behind something that looks like a small tunnel, except it's very short. My bus is way too tall to get under, so I get the idea, that if I get the bus to lay on it's left side, it will be able to slide through the opening of the tunnel, and into the Pay'N'Spray, and then it will be able to fix itself in there. I jump out of the vehicle, push it to the left side and try to jump in again as it goes forward and is on it's side, but it's impossible. I successfully managed to get through the tunnel, but the bus is still on it's side and not inside the Pay'N'Spray. I know if it lays to long on the side, the engine will ignite and the car will explode, so I try to somehow push it back on it's wheels again, but with no success. Somehow the bus way smaller now and I pick it up still knowing it's going to explode, but now it looks more like a small thin box, rather than a bus. I hold it and suddenly it explodes and it's gone. Suddenly I have the feeling that my hands are blue and my under-body is blue as well, from the damages the explosion from the bus caused. Why I think it's blue I have no idea, but I still feel it's weird that I have this belief, so I check out my hand. When I look at my left hand, my little finger and my ring finger is blue and a some part of my hand as well. I find this weird and suddenly I am Lucid. I get a little bit excited and then I proceed to walk out of the little tunnel, but then I feel that the dream is very unstable, so I decide to back and stand right were I became lucid, and study my hands. I notice that my hands are very deformed, like there's branches sticking out of my fingers, and there's like black crosshairs on certain points on my hands. I feel that I have to look at my hand twice just because I feel so unstable, that I am unable to focus, so it ends up with everything going black. I beg that it's a false awakening, but it's not. Oil platform I am at some dock and close to me there's a big oil platform. To get over to the oil platform, I need to use some kind of rope in the air, to somehow be thrown over. I do so and suddenly I am inside the house of the oil platform. I am standing inside with several friends, when suddenly I hear police cars at the dock. I go towards the window wondering why they're here, and suddenly I get a bad feeling that something is about to happen. I can feel a small rumble, and then I can feel the whole dock going sideways. At first I am scared, and then I tell all my friends that you've got to pray the last time (Even though I'm not christian) cause I know for sure that I will be killed, but then I suddenly feel like it's a dream, and all this is very unrealistic, so my scared face turns into a smile and I start giggling a little bit, I am very happy it's a dream, but I don't get lucid of that reason, and I try to relax everyone and say it's just a dream! But the dock is still falling so it ends up everything going black. Buss with friend I'm supposed to take a buss with a friend to somewhere Bothersome passanger Someone drives me to a friend and I tell that he really don't need to do this, but he tells me he is the neighbor of the friend I am visiting, and then I say, "Oh, well then it doesn't really matter then."
Updated 02-20-2012 at 07:17 PM by 41623 (Adding more recalled dreams)
I just made my BODY fell asleep consciously without pre-sleep. This is not a WILD, this is a strong intention MILD. Is it so weird really? To fall asleep consciously just means that I am aware of my body shutting down. I will not tell you what to do step by step, because there is only one step really, laying still with closed eyes and wait. But I will tell you what I felt. I went to bed laying on my back and I just started to relax. After a while salive started to build up in my mouth, but I just swallowed it, I am trying to fall asleep not get sleep paralysis, so it didn't matter. So I did not had to care about the mind awake body asleep concept, I just wanted my body to get completely relaxed while I was aware. I thought to myself "I am aware of my dreams and I remember my dreams". I did the 61 point relaxation technique, but it doesn't really matter what kind of focus you have as long as you are laying still and are aware. I have pracctised to be able to lay still for a long time with the help of tons of guided relaxation meditation mp3:s. And to be aware is not that hard when you are. I looked at my alarmclock before starting all this and it was 22.10 I felt my body vibrating slightly, ok not vibrating but it feels like its getting petrified. Hard to explain, but lay down still for a few minutes and you will get what I mean. After some time I started to feel my nose itch like crazy and I just pretended that this was my body testing if I was asleep. It was hard to ignore this, but if I just let it itch for 10 seconds, it faded away gradually. When the itch vanished I nod off for a short second for a couple of times and I knew that I was close to fall asleep. Then my whole body got warmer and my mind felt calm and tranquil. I now knew that my body was asleep and I tried to let the mind fall asleep by setting my intention to fall asleep as you do when you normally go to sleep. Go to bed now and try to fall asleep, that feeling is what I tried to create at this point. I let myself fall asleep unconsciously now. I then started to dream, but I was not lucid, but I was very aware of it happening. [COLOR="blue"]I got out of bed and started my computer. I heard my mom saying something in the other room. I walked out of my room and I saw my dad laying on the carpet in a weird bodyposition and I saw my mom. I thought this was weird so I decided to make a reality check. Sadly the reality check didn't worked so I am going to start using another during the day, to make sure that I get lucid next time. I looked at my hand and it looked crooked and did not looked normal. But I just thought "Hmm this might be a dream, let's do another reality check". I checked my pulse and I could feel it, nothing odd here... The dreamscene changed and I followed Mr. Bean in third person view.Then the setting started to change rapidly, I was writing a letter then I was flying over a town, and then I was Emil from Astrid Lindgren's books. I had a flower that I took care of and the dream was just about me as Emil talknig with the flower. Then I went up to a house and from the window I saw a women stealing the flower. I shouted on Alfred and we run out looking for this women. When we found her, I noticed that she was qute good looking and Alfred started to flirt with her instead. Weird dreams, but then I woke up. [/COLOR] I did a reality check, I was awake. Now I looked at the time and it was 00.26. I got excited of this attempt, because I had done a MILD, waited to lapses of consciousness and been aware of the dream as soon as it started. I was not aware in the sense that I knew I was dreaming, but I was aware enough to experience the dream and I if the reality checked had worked I would have become lucid. This means that if I had got lucid, it would have been in the first sleep cycle. I will try this the next night as well and until then I have to figure out a better reality check. I will try to give you a small step by step guide of how I did: 1. Lay still in your bed with closed eyes. 2. Tell yourself your mantra. 3. Feel your bodyparts gradually get relaxed. (swallow your saliva if you have to, you are not aiming for SP!) 4. If you are aware enough you will get lapses of consciousness (You are then on the right track!) 5. I heard a beeping noise in my ears. 6. I fell asleep and was more aware of my dream. 7. Have a reality check ready that works... The key is the mindset: Don't care what happens, just stay still and remember that you don't aim for sleep paralysis so don't look for that, instead try to feel the different sensations that your body will give you. The advantage of this, is that I have control of the attempt and that I don't need a WBTB, instead I can do the attempt at my regular bedtime! When I woke up from this dream I turned the lights on an wrote down all this, which resulted in that I couldn't fall back to sleep... But eventually I did, and I had these dreams: [COLOR="blue"]I were in one of Lady Gagas musicvideos and it was about her having extremely long hair which was almost like a long rope. And me and some other people were pulling in the hair for some reason. Then I dreamt that I could fly and the dream consisted of my trying to control that flying. In the next dream I was playing soccer and I was talking to my friends Maja and David, I remembered the conversation upon awakening, but I seem to have forgot it now... I also remember that I had a dream about Harry Potter, but I can't remember what happend in that dream. Before I woke up I remember that I had a dream about me being a member of a gang and we robbed a bank, but I got caught.[/COLOR] Tonight I am going to use indirect techniques upon awakening to see if I am non-physical (dreaming) or not.

LD3: I did not have much luck during the night, probably form being to tired. The alarm went off and I hit snooze so decide to just do a brief DIELD. I was able to get into a LD in only a few seconds. I was highly aware, but that was a problem in itself, as I clearly was partially awake. As a result the LD had little depth or clarity. Everything was black except for what I intended to interact with. I usually try not to be a perv. in my dreams, so I can spend the time doing other things, but my wife has been sick lately, and well... you know. I just summoned a DC in the shape of an old girlfriend and felt her up for a few minutes. The snooze alarm woke me up again. Duration ~8 minutes. LD4: Same as above but I had to do the DIELD steps again. I decided since I had low clarity and depth, plus knowing the snooze would only give me 9 minutes to just go ahead and be a perv (wife has been sick). I summoned a scene in the front seat of a car, and decided, why settle for an ex-girlfriend? I summoned a DC that was supposed to be Jennifer Aniston (she is cute) and enjoyed myself until the alarm went off again. Duration ~8 minutes Not a very exciting night, but hey, I got to spend some time with a cute TV star even if the resolution sucked.
Aeolar's Dream NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I'm in a parking garage walking around. A whole lot of people are down here too. A red-headed woman(DC?) is pestering me, talking about dreaming, asking a bunch of philosophical questions.. She tells me I can make all these other DC's disappear, and sure enough, I can! I feel my body for the RC; it's a bit lighter than usual. To sum up the lucid: I casted lightning, summoned fire, did a Hadouken and a Kamehameha blast, flying, teleporting, picked up some winged armor and a baseball bat named Sword, and ate some steak. Now i'm in some canyon/beach place. My Dad's side of the fam is there and D. is onto me dreaming, I say ok w/e just don't make problems! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On a beach with a man with a mustache. He's a pilot. I look down by the water and I see a lot of people running towards us frantically. I tell the pilot and he says to start the plane engine; he'll be right behind me. There is a giant hurricane headed towards us. I turn around and see the plane on the beach, run over and turn the engine on and get ready for takeoff. The hurricane is getting closer and as I stare at it, I see that it's blanketed in lightning. The pilot jumps in and takes off right toward it! "That's an electrical storm!" I yell "Don't worry! It won't bother us!" he reassures me, though I don't believe him. We ride right on through and past the hurricane and the skies instantly get calmer. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Am making a story book and I'm choosing an interesting monster that lives in the water.
Aeolar's Dream I'm in my house, trying to clean my toaster. I empty all the little bits of bread inside of it and a bunch of bugs fall out. I throw the toaster into the dishwasher really fast and close it before more bugs can get out. I open the door and peek inside to see if they're still there, but it isn't. I turn around and check my hands to see if I'm dreaming. It fails, but I do a nose pinch RC to double check and it works! I walk out onto the porch and fly up to the roof of my house. I feel my body and stabilize and it gets really heavy and starts to fall. The dream fades. I'm back on the porch, and I do another RC, yay! It works! I walk inside, and Dawn my stepmom is by the sink. I know she's a DC of mine so I ask her a question.. "Why don't I skateboard anymore?" She says something about Sheldon and finding "my one true love" and goes on and on. Just then someone comes in the front door. I run to the stairs to check who it is. This red-frilly haired woman comes in wearing a tan shirt and jeans, with groceries. Something clicks in my mind that she is "the one" so I run down the stairs and kiss her, and we walk back up. "Is Nance here?" She asks. Her mom maybe? "No, she isn't. Do you want to go flying?" I ask her. "Well..." She says undecidedly. I grab her by the arm and we run out the porch door. "Come on!!" ~~~~~~~ 4 UFO's are flying in a triangle formation.

Dream Fragment Non-LucidI was inside of Skyrim and I was on an all-black mountain. It was snowing where I was, and there was hardly any plant life here. I got the feeling that someone was chasing me and also that there was someone that I was guiding through the mountain. The dream was from the person I was guiding's perspective. I looked back and gestured with my hand for the person to follow me. The person follow the order and started walking with me. All was peaceful until we got attacked by some people that was looking for us. The last thing I remember before waking up was that I saw myself Fus Ro Dah a guy off of the mountain.
LD#2: I find myself at the university I attended in my 20's. Having no reason to believe I should be there I become lucid. What to do? I walk around a bit to see what the subconcious may stir up. There seems to be a commotion in a locker room, and a bunch of DCs are trying to get in there. A man looks at me and seems like he is considering something about me. I focus energy at him to make the rest of the crowd focus on him instead (no idea why I did that). I decide the whole scene looks cluttered and uninteresting so I turn around and look for something else to do. I see a room for martial arts. Hmmm, maybe some sparring or rolling on the mats could be worth doing. I go in the door and become fully lucid. I realize that the 3 men in martial arts outfits may be 'real' entities, but I am not completely sure. Everything is extra clear and no odd distractions are happening. I ask if I can join. Sure. The instructor is giving us a small lecture on something to do with hands. He goes on for a bit, but what ever he is teaching has something to do with other dimensional grids and who to do something involving them with your hands. I can not understand the topic well at all, so I excuss myself and ask if I can just do rolls or something if they wont be sparring. I take a big leaping role across the mat and it is all slo-mo and weird like the Matrix scenes. I loose lucidity and recall at that point. Duration~5 minutes.
