So Ive been practicing Lucid Dreaming ever sense November of 2013 on and off, but now I can finally say I got the hang of it! I think Having OBE's are the funnest thing ever because your only limited to what you can imagine! And That's why I'm Starting this Journey, A Journey Within...

My name is War Buckets and I love The concepts of Fantasy, Legends, Gods, Goddesses, Fairy Tails, Video Games, Cartoons, Anime, Art, Folklore etc. I feel as tho we live in a fantasy ourselves and the real world is within us; Some call it the " Dream World" others may call it the " Astral Planes" or " 4th Dimension ".

I feel as tho we can all go into our inner worlds and have grand adventures with one another without the laws of the 3rd dimension binding us. After a Long day of doing whatever, we can come to our little sanctuary and meet one another via OBE'ing ( Lucid Dreaming, Astral Travel, Shared Dreaming etc. )

With that being said I made up this concept called " Astral Gaming" Were we can go on adventures we never thought possible and at the same time be enlightened by the whole experience! Grand Exploration awaits you, and all you have to do is look within yourself. :cheeky:

Starland is a "Astral Game" that anyone in the universe can play! Instead of playing Video games for hours and hours with limitations, you can create your own game... FOR FREE! Starland is for people who love to share dreams, have Astral projections, and OBE's! You can think of Starland as an "4D Infinite Open World MMORPG Game". The possibilities are endless, as far as your imagination can take you!


How To Play! : Starland is playable during OBE's ( Lucid Dreaming, Astral Projection, etc. ).

To play Starland all you have to do is imagine it! IT's THAT EASY!

*( You do not have to use these terms by any means. MAKE UP YOUR OWN TERMS IF YOU WANT )* :

You can also (optional, but highly recommended) make your very own " IMGN [HS] "( Image for short ) ". You can think of Starland's IMGN as a type of Server that you find in games today, but it's your very own server!
In a IMGN you can build your own town, city, world, galaxy, universe, or MULTIVERSE!
You can Also build your " [ HS ] ( Higher Self ) ", a character that best suites you! Your HS can be: A Knight, sorcerer, archer, healer, teacher, Guru, Builder, Inventor, philosopher, Spiritual teacher/ guide/ healer ANYTHING YOU WANT!
There are also Your " [ WAY ] ( WAY ) " Your " Species/ category/ Typing ( Type ) ".
Your WAY can look or be anything that you can imagine! You can be a Blue Knight with a yellow glowing sword,
A Bear that can jump as high as 30 stories, a Mermaid who can heal with the water element, A Bounty hunter,
A Black belt fighter, A Great Teacher , ANYTHING!

Once you're done creating your [ HS ] and [ WAY ] you can now star your adventure into your inner world!

Creating/ Managing Your Inner World: You can Create Your Own Inner World How Ever You Like! You can make it as big as earth or as small as Pluto, or even smaller! You can have many worlds even galaxies! You can color your worlds and have anything in them like jungles, cities, towns, homes, you name it! You can also invite friends to come and adventure in your world! ( You can also set your world to a population limit or friend(s) only limit )
[ If you would like you can come to my world " ToyBox" and I could help you get started! ]

Adventuring: In Starland You can go on Billions of adventures throughout the Universe! You can also rack up points from adventuring called " [ AP ] ( Adventure Points ) ". AP is calculate by how much and how long you adventure in Starland! The Higher the AP, the more prizes/ Items you can obtain. [ You can also choose not to have AP ]
There are also "Adventure Stories" you can choose to play with different levels: [easy, medium, hard, very hard, Hero ]

Party/ Groups/ Clans/ Organizations : You can also create your own "[ PRTY ] ( Party) " with your friends to go on adventures with! You can name your party ( group/organization/Clan etc. ) anything you'd like! Partys can consist of all warriors, healers, inventors, or even Teachers ANYTHING! A Party can also have a combined A.P. Count of all the adventures they went on together.
[ You can also join my Party " StarParty " for assistance on any form of a OBE]

How To Beat The Game: Well there isn't a specific way to beat Starland, but the main purpose of Starland is to let you fuse with your higherself, meet your sprit guides, and adventure on to the 5D. It's A game of FUN and LOVE and only LOVE and FUN!

Last night I dreamt I met Raven Symone, the actress from Disney channel's That's So Raven. My memory of the dream is very sparse but I do recall Raven was teaching a group of people how to sing and dance and giving $25 as a prize for the best singers and dancers. I really wanted that $25 but I didn't get it. I was very awe-struck because Raven is a celebrity and I just met her in my dream! I couldn't believe I saw her, she seemed so real and I didn't even know I was dreaming. The next part of the dream I was following Raven, somehow I was tracking her! Ugh I should have written this when I woke up because the dream was so fresh and my memory of it was so vivid then, and that was almost twelve hours ago! Well I followed raven to this beach and her house overlooked the coast. It was a beautiful place, then my dream transitioned to me hang gliding over the beach and over Raven's house. Then I woke up. It was a great dream! There was really so much more to this dream. It was very intricate but I cannot remember the details, I should have written it down as soon as I awoke!

A flood warning in Boston - they expect the buildings around the harbor to be under three feet of water. Evacuation is recommended.

Post-apocalyptic setting, there's a human doctor taking care of a human-looking robot going by the code name Rabbit. It has black stitches in a ring around its throat. It put them there itself - they're decorative.

Late 19th century England, two immortals dressed all in white are talking. "Just defend (this place)." "Domi, this is a terrible plan."

I was in a house with a girl trying to figure out something about an evil mirror. The mirror tried to kill us so I freaked out and went to boxing, where I met an average looking girl and chatted with her. I returned to the house and the mirror somehow became good. I was with Laurie and we went outside. The house we were was on a coast of a large lake or ocean, so I jumped into the water. Since I saw water, I asked myself if I was dreaming. I looked at my watch, which showed time normally. I swam around and the mirror showed itself.
I was then at work in some sort of mall store and used an elevator which was a way to get to the bathroom. As I walked through a hallway, I realized my RC was actually wrong because the seconds showed where the date should have been. I noticed I didn't have my pistol on my belt and figured I must of left it in the van. As I walked, I saw a girl struggling to control a dog. I kept walking and the girl and the dog started running towards me, so I turned around and told them to stop, but instead they just ran past me, towards a guy. The girl lost control of the dog and the dog bit the guy, which worked in the building. The man started hitting the dog to the point where I had to step in and say something. We started arguing and I knew he wanted to fight. We raised our fists and he threw punches at me, which I easily dodged. I reached for my Phase IV, shook it, sprayed him, and fought back. Eventually, I got the man in cuffs and when I sat him up, he had the cuffs in front of him so I put them behind his back. My partner arrived and was thinking of calling Amerson to tell him there had been a use of force.

I was playing a video game that had to do with killing zombies. It was an online game and I was getting my weapons ready while my team advanced. After, I was in a warehouse playing another zombie game but this one had to do with evasion and stealth instead of killing. I climbed to the top of some sort of construction zone and used an animal to jump down. At first, I was scared because I was so high up but told myself "It's all about expectation" and jumped. I had to find a fire and some guy was helping me because I was infected.

I was in my apartment with Laurie when Marylin knocked on the door. She was mad that I had a cat and served me a 7 day notice. She then started pushing me against the wall and started flirting with me but I pushed her away from me.
--------------------------------------------------------

I was at a college campus with the student flight. I was teaching them parkour and showing them how some videos were recorded in that school.

I was in Pittsburgh and I don't live there anymore, so I knew I was in a dream. I was playing a video game and taking a test to see if I have any mental health problems, and my brother Peter was there, and I realized I was dreaming. I found my mom and dad they were together (in real life they're divorced), and I was scared for my health because i was asleep and knew I was dreaming, and they wrote something down on a piece of paper and told me to take a cab to a hospital. Suddenly I was outside, and I remembered to ask myself, Am I still dreaming? Yes was the answer. So I decided to practice my back flip. In real life I land kind of on my knees when I do it without a spotter, and on my feet bent legs but my hands reach out and touch the ground when I do it with a spotter. At first I couldnt do it, but then I managed to do a back flip, and I landed on my feet and then fell back down to the ground and hit my head, and I tried to sit up and stand up but I couldn't, all I could do was lift my head up off the ground. But I knew it was just a dream and I woke up soon after that, but still it left me afraid that doing a back tuck in real life would leave me paralyzed for life. I know in heaven Jesus would heal me and that this dream was just a warning to be careful and to only do it on a big soft mat or into a foam pit and with a spotter.

I was in my room. Or at least a room. I was half-kneeling on the floor, as if I just dropped down from somewhere. I knew I was dreaming. I decided to go through the window, but it stopped me. I punched through it and the window panes broke down, but behind it, there's concrete and bricks. I can't escape.

NOTES:

I didn't feel desparate, just frustrated that I can't get anywhere in the dream, despite knowing that I'm dreaming.

- I'm with my family on a trip, we are in a rocky mountain region. We go through a narrow pass very carefully, apparently we are on our way back. We end in my backyard and something feels strange. I run to the street and a woman appears with her car and tells me to be prepared for something big.
After a while we speak to our neighbours, and i go to another house. Then i see some alien figures across the street. I seem to know them from somewhere, so i approach them and one greets me and tells me the time-space continuum is being destroyed, so i have to escape on their ship with other people. While the alien escorts me i ask him who was the woman from before, he responds by changing into her so i now know it was him in disguise.
We arrive at the spaceship and i see a lot of people i know entering it. After taking off we go to a secluded place in a forest where a strange building floats above a giant tree. It appears to be a school, and their students range from little children to adults, and wear strange robes. Since the world i knew was destroyed i have to stay here to prepare for tomorrow.

I'm trying to fix a rather infuriating bug in a game prototype I'm working on.
Every time I run it through the debugger I get completely different results.
Even the code seems to change occasionally.

Eventually I realize that this is a dream sign and I try to increase my awareness.
A skype window pops up with a message from ~ Dreamer ~.
It says:

"I'm waiting..."

Oooooh. Did we want to meet on the beach tonight? Is ~ Dreamer ~ on the beach waiting for me?
I decide to go to bed immediately in order to attempt a WILD.
Surprisingly, I transition almost immediately, and find myself of the beach.

I remember to take a moment to stabilize the dream by going through all of my senses.
Wait... did I just attempt to WILD, even though I already knew that I was dreaming???
Well then... I'm off to a good start.

Anyways, I do feel that I am more focused now, so I begin my search for ~ Dreamer ~.
I start thinking about whether it is even possible for another dreamer to come to my beach.
It is a very private place after all, a place where I always feel safe.
But I decide that this shouldn't cause any problems.
After all I'm comfortable with the idea of her being here.

Unfortunately I can't find her, but I do see that there is another DC by the ocean.
Perhaps she has seen ~ Dreamer ~? I walk over to her in order to ask her.
As I get closer I notice that the DC has an interesting hair color.
It is bleached white with slightly lavender highlights.
Just as I arrive she jokingly says:

"You're late!"

What? Oh! Suddenly it becomes very obvious that she is in fact ~ Dreamer ~, not just a random DC that happens to be on the beach.
For some reason I assumed that she would have purple hair, so I didn't recognize her earlier.
I wonder why that is though. Usually I don't have any problems to recognize people in dreams, even if their appearance has changed.
She turns towards me, and I immediately notice her eyes.



Wow! Her eyes are so beautiful. I can almost feel the energy radiating from them.
She has had purple eyes in my dreams before, but they were never quite as vibrant as they are now.

"Hi?"

Oops, I realize that I haven't said anything yet. Instead I'm just staring at her eyes.
I feel a little awkward and somewhat anxious. I don't know what to say.
But then I remember reading that ~ Dreamer ~ has overcome such situations by getting naked.
I do like the general approach, but I'm not quite comfortable enough to just get naked.
Instead I decide to get reaaally close to her face and look right into her eyes.

"Have you seen your eyes? They are soooo purple."
"They are?"

She looks around for a moment and then uses her dream powers to pull some water out of the ocean,
and shapes it into a thin water mirror. It is still mostly transparent,
but the reflection is good enough to clearly see how vibrant her eyes are.

"Ooooh, I like it!"

"Hey Hyu. Tell me a trick?"
"A trick?"
"Yes! Like, a trick to improve lucidity!"
"Hmmm. Well, basically just engage all of your senses?"
"Yes, yes, I know that! Tell me an actual trick!"
"Oooh, I know! Take off your shoes!"

After a small pause she frowns a little.

"Why.... do you want to see my feet?"

Why did I say it like that?

"No... it's..."
"When you're barefoot, you are constantly engaging your sense of touch."
"You always feel the texture of the ground... like the softness of the sand."
"Basically it's similar to constantly touching everything you encounter with your hands."
"Ooooh, I see! Hahaha, that does make more sense than you revealing that you have a foot fetish or something. "
"Did I make you a little uncomfortable there?"
"It's fine... I'm just a little nervous."
"Don't worry, I experience that in my dreams as well."
"Yes, and then you get naked to..."
"... no, I mean... I'm not suggesting that you..."

We both have to laugh about the situation.
And then suddenly the laughter turns into a ring tone? What?

Aaand I wake up, because the alarm on my phone went off.
I'm annoyed because the dream was quite stable, I bet it could have lasted quite a bit longer if the alarm didn't go off.
But I remember the dream quite vividly, which is nice, and I journal it immediately.

Dream - Lucid

I was thinking about Dallas and I's wedding. It had been on a stage. Except for I hadn't married Dallas, I had married my dad? Ew, I know. I was thinking about having to share a bed with him and was so weirded out and uncomfortable. I was then thinking about Dallas and how I was married to him and it made me feel better. I don't know, it didn't make a lot of sense.

Then, I was in what looked like a bedroom. There were things on the carpeted floor. We were getting ready for my brother's wedding, which I kept thinking was not that weekend, but another weekend, but I guess they had pushed it forward. There was a full-length mirror to my left. Dallas came up to me. He was naked. He gave me a hug. It was a really sweet hug! Then, I heard a plop noise. Uh oh.
"Did you just poop???" I asked Dallas.
"Yup," he said.
Oh my god. My husband just shit on the floor. Could he not hold it or something?
I then looked over in the closet to my right, which resembled our IWL closet, and saw my friend Caitlin in there, wearing an all white, all covering suit.



Over the suit, she was wearing clothing. This is what they were doing for my brother's wedding...many people were going to wear these white full body suits with clothing over them. She was trying to be sneaky. She was doing all these smooth, interpretive dance-like movements. I then thought about how she had probably just seen Dallas poop on the floor. I imagined she had a good laugh about that. She then came out of the closet and sat down at a long table that was in the room apparently. This is where the other guests of the wedding would sit as well. A few other people in white body suits came and sat down. I looked over to where Dallas had pooped. He had cleaned it up, but I saw a slight stain on the floor. So embarrassing.

I was at some guy's house, which was actually the house that my best friend lived in when we were growing up. Many guys lived there, apparently. It was a house that the college kids came to to party at. The guy had spiky blonde hair, kind of resembling Titus from FFX. I had made friends with a guy that lived over there on League of Legends. I wanted to be friends with this guy too. I was lounging on a couch in the bonus room with my shoes off. In front of me on a different couch, another guy was playing a game on a console. I mentioned something to the Titus guy about how I had been in the house before because my best friend's family lived there. I was noticing how familiar, yet different it looked now. Different furniture in a different arrangement, a bit dirtier, etc. But it was definitely the bonus room I remembered.

I was kind of having feelings for the guy, but I didn't think he was interested in me back. I had a feeling I needed to leave. I got up and started walking. I asked the guy how many people lived in the house. His response was
"It's hard keeping up a brothel."
Ok...awkward. I didn't think he meant an actually brothel though.
I started going down the stairs with the guy when I realized I had forgotten my shoes. I said so, and he went up to get them for me. As I was waiting for the shoes, some girls came to the door for a party that was going to happen later. I was then given my shoes. I put them on and started to leave, but realized I had also forgotten my purse. The guy wasn't around anymore, but the girls were. I said I had forgotten my purse, and went to get it. Fortunately, it was only a short walk away in a hallway. I picked it up and was finally ready to go.

I left through the front door and went onto the lawn. There was some dog poop on the lawn. I was trying to avoid stepping in it. I kept coming across more and more of it. I then saw that there were these big piles of it in what appeared to be rings around the lawn. I couldn't avoid it anymore and accidentally stepped in the poop. Yuck. What were they doing with these? Trying to fertilize the lawn? How could anyone get to the house with this crap all over the place? Weird. I finally got through the piles of shit. I was by the ditch that separates that house from my house (this is true IWL; she lived behind me growing up), though the ditch was in a different place, and it spanned vertically instead of horizontally. I was walking through the long, drying grass and rocks embedded in the ground, now trying to avoid these moving blue blobs that were actually tiny individual bugs acting as a single entity. They looked like blue mold or moss sliding across the rocks. I then came across some clear stones with blue flecks in them. Very pretty! I thought about reading down to grab one, but wasn't sure if there were more blue blob bugs hidden anywhere close. I kept walking and seeing more of the pretty stones. I thought that they probably weren't natural, but man made.

Then, I came across these broken Victoria's Secret earring displays. Is this where the stones came from, broken glass? There were two or three of them, each a different color, though I can't recall the colors. I saw lots of stud earrings in one of the more intact ones. They looked like little kid stud earrings, some being bumble bees, for example. I wondered why they were all in the ditch. Had someone tried to steal them and abandoned them here? I wanted to take the stud earrings, but I also didn't want to mess up any evidence had it actually been a theft. I picked up the display of stud earrings. There was then a woman there with me. She told me that she had seen a dead body impaled on something while she was in the back of the store, and she was so shocked she tried to kill herself by swallowing a bunch of the stud earrings. As she was saying this, I saw her head and neck against a black background with emphasis on her neck. There was a red line on her neck showing how she was affected. Hard to explain that part. She then said she immediately changed her mind and made herself puke them up. Wouldn't that make things worse, though, I wondered, because it would cut her esophagus up as the earrings were coming back up?

- Dancing some indigenous native dance, I'm happy I can perform the movements although I never tried dancing these more than the basic steps in WL.

- My aunt-mom had some complains about her organization. The whole dream develops under water. We're in an ex-girlfriend's house. There's a huge hornet at the end of the sequence.

- I'm talking with some religious people. I took the atheist side, and I'm not interested in discussing with them because of I show them the size of their arguments against what I think. A friend of mine, who is handicapped, laughs to much, until he falls backwards from the ledge of the yard of my grandparents' house. He's bleeding from the back of his head, he jokes about what's all that he remembers during his fall, we help him to get an ambulance.

- It's a semi-lucid where I get into a first person shooting game world. I cross the main gate, which is equivalent to the introduction screen. I know it's all a game, and whatever they try to do doesn't hurt me. I perform a lot of dream control here, but don't get to fully realize it's a dream. I get shoot a lot of times, but I decide that those bullets doesn't hurt me. There's an out of scale fat guy who has a severe fall, and I play with the timing of his swoon until he faints, in spite of he tries to keep on going. Then I get into a room, talking with a lot of people in order to go for the next level, like it was sort of special security/investigations office.

- I see two electric guitars that apparently I finally got to unite. There's a band of guys, dressed in some folk style who come after my participation of a music event. They say it's enough of the metal style chance. I see myself playing the guitar in a podium or some, the whole place is like a theater. I think perhaps it's not me who I'm seeing but a faint actor to replace me because of it looks too good. The music sounds good and I collaborate during the performance of the folk band, improvising some riffs that fit the style, although it's not something that really interests me.

- Nap after work: I'm riding an adventure motorbike that sometimes turns into a big 4 wheel bike and sometimes it turns into a 4x4 lifted jeep. I cross an alternate road to my grandparents' town which once I traveled in a bus because of road works. I cross at least 3 little towns, which used to be part of past dreams in the road. I cross a bridge, too close to a man. It's a celebration day in the last one. There's some bullfighting taking place, I'm disappointed with that. I have to put my head down to avoid hitting some festival ornaments over street. I wear a mask in one of the sequences. Somebody asks me if I've seen the bullfighters who I sent to walk away. I answer no. Finally got out of the last town and enter a curve with a deep pond. I almost dive in. I have to hold the bike. Finally I get out and wonder about my mp3 player in my fanny pack. I must take care because the road seems to be abandoned long ago. There's a lot of grown grass.

I seriously wonder what is up with my brain sometimes.

Some long and very dull dream about some activity night going on at my dorm room. Most of it already slipped through my memory anyway. Skip.

Spoiler for Proceed at your own risk:

I was back at my old high school, having the classic 'class that I forgot dream'. I was at the school after hours though, so everybody had left and I was walking down the halls alone.
I come across one of the school janitors on my way out. But he doesn't look like one of the school janitors. He's a black man, probably about 60. Very small and skinny with a thin beard and big round eyes. And he's wearing these formal British clothes with a scarf and what not, all in this obnoxious brownish-orange color.
He starts asking me questions, but some of them seem a little off. He then takes me to show me his greatest secret. He walks me over to the old trophy case and opens a secret door to a back room that I didn't know existed.
This was the weird part. He has a huge secret room, right next to where the principals office was. And the entire wall of the room, every inch of it is covered in framed photographs of erect penises. All of the photos had been taken from the same angle. The man gestures to the center of the wall where there is a photograph of a huge penis. He says it is his and that he has the biggest one out of anyone he as photographed.
He was literally the winner of a dick measuring contest.
There is also a duplicate of the trophy case along each side wall of the room. Both trophy cases were filled with adult penis toys.
The man keeps giving me this really creepy look where he smiles and his eyes seem to bug out of his head. His teeth look fake. I woke up. It was the middle of the night.

I can recall in being what felt like my cousin's sub. I was walking down the street. I had become partially lucid.
...
My recall is more than a little patchy but I can recall at one point, I went inside of a house. The first room had a bunch of doors in it. There is also a bed and a dresser. A small piece of wallpaper peeled off from between two doors, entirely by itself.
The wallpaper then folded itself into a diaper. Parts of stretched out to become small legs and part of it ripped to become a mouth. Oh yeah, and because it was a diaper, it was full with crap that came out of nowhere. It had basically become this little monster thing that I wound up fighting.
The diaper had some connection to the house. Like the family that lived there had a baby and they made diapers out of wallpaper or something.
So we ended up having the worlds longest fight. I held the upper hand being... well a human and not a diaper. I can't recall the fight play-by-play but there was a part where I was whacking it with a big stick that I found under a bed that was in the room. There was a part where the diaper climbed onto the ceiling and tried to jump down on top of me.
There was even a part where I used firebending and the 'Fus roh dah' shout from Skyrim to blast it into a corner.
Eventually for whatever reason, the diaper monster became a squirrel. At this point I stopped fighting it and turned to walk back outside, only to find that the door that had led me into this random room led back out into my bedroom.
I looked outside. The weather was cold and grey. A rumble of thunder was heard in the distance. For whatever reason I decided I wanted to try flying. I opened the window, forced out the screen. I then did a last-minute stabilization by rubbing my hands together, and saying 'I'm dreaming!'
I then jumped out the window, and fell like a rock into the bush below my window.
Then I suddenly thought "What if this is real life, and I just jumped out of the window in real life?!" I did a nose pinch. I could breathe.
"Wait..." I said to myself. I forget what indicates being in a dream. Being able to breathe or not being able to breathe? Because I can most defiantly breathe." I then remember, being able to breathe means you are dreaming.
For a few moments I managed to anchor myself on the cold wind that was blowing in the dream. I start to become very lucid when I lose the dream.

FA in my college dorm room. I have peed in the bed. I get up and start changing out of my clothes.

FA in my home bedroom. I have peed in the bed here as well. I do a reality check and become lucid momentarily lucid before FAing once more.

FA. Something to do with the Simpsons of all things. Bart is buying these special schoolbooks that come with cereal. Supposedly these were supposed to help improve his grades because if you read the books while eating the cereal, you remember them better. Bart his happy because the cereal is dinosaur shapes.

I wake up into WL. Reality check and fortunately, I have not wet the bed.

Just one dream today because, just when things were starting to roll, I had to get up relatively early. Apart from the occasional very early dream I often don't get much till my set alarm time, because I don't push it now during the early hours...let the brain do its night-time maintenance...and it pays off because, so far, I haven't had one of those awful "feeling ill" episodes.

7.00 (after a WBTB)
Long drawn-out gunfight (DS=violence) in a very busy town...only it's between me and my grandson and against my oldest son (absolutely no conflicts in my family so I'm assuming that Ed's film budget was pretty tight) There was another character (who apparently gave me his gun) but the rest were just cheap DC extras.

At one stage one of my long distance shots clearly wounded my son (sorry son...I didn't write the script) After some skirmishing we eventually all met up together again and there wasn't a mark on my son, so Ed clearly couldn't afford a continuity girl either.

I quite often get an early dream that is less than an hour after I've fallen asleep so I wonder if they are in NREM sleep.
