      Hello, I'm Rockefeller.
      I'm from Belgium and I speak French, so sorry if sometime I write English bad.
      I discover lucid dream when I was 15yo while watching Inception.



      Green:I'm lucid in the dream
      No color:Normal dream

    2. #65 - Dream 1 (eavesdropping), Dream 2 (sexy time)

      by , 02-22-2015 at 09:49 PM (The Oneironaut's Odyssey)
      Black: Non-dream
      Blue: Non-lucid
      Red: Lucid

      Dream 1 - Eavesdropping
      I'm sitting in a bus with a guy called Jamie in the seat in front of me. He's talking to someone sitting next to him about how his girlfriend is having these mood swings, he wants to break up with her because she's getting to be a handful or something. I chip into the conversation and say that if she's suddenly started having mood swings for no apparent reason then she should go to the doctor, it's likely to be chemical or psychological or something that can be assessed.

      Kind of a random dream, it comes from yesterday when we were on the bus ride back, Jamie is the person that just doesn't stop talking

      Dream 2 - Sexy time
      Me and my girlfriend are in the kitchen, I'm just in the corner of the room and she walks up to me and kisses me, we start fooling around and getting hot and heavy. Woot

      I ignored a lot of the longer dreams I had last night because I felt they were incredibly mundane and boring... to the point where I just couldn't be bothered even trying to think about them. *Sigh* Was a bit too tired for lucid dreams last night I think.

    3. First lucid dream!

      by , 02-22-2015 at 08:24 PM (Super duper mega hooper blog)
      I spent this weekend at a cabin without internet, water or telephone connection. A simple cabin with nice nature and snow. Well, let's talk a bit about my earlier attempts at a nice lucid.

      WILD/WBTB: I've tried WILDs, bedtime 10-11pm, then wake up around 4-5AM. I got dreams, but not lucid dreams.
      DILD: Well, just used some mantras and RCs right before turning into my sleepingposition.
      I also try to DEILD when I wake up at weekends.

      Well, this night I got around 3-4 dreams I remembered when I wake up and looked into my eyelids. I went through my 3-4 dreams in my head, and decided to try a WILD. Well, I counted to 80, and got tired. I don't remember much more, but decided to try to go back to my past dream, which was some old schoolmates in a mountain. I fell to sleep, and "woke" up in my old schoolbuilding. I noseplugged, and could still breath (I was aware of my real body when I noseplugged, and felt my real nose blow air really hard.), and put a finger through my palm. I decided to fly through the roof, and saw the isolation, but then I dropped down to the floor again. I tried to run through the wall, but at pure reflex, I stopped. I tried and tried, but couldn't walk through that one.

      Usually when I WILD, I already have planned my dream. I wake up in my bed, going through the window, then flying over a blue sea to the moon. I tried to do that, but I don't have enough skills yet to pull that off. Also, I wanted to go to a partyplace, but don't remember much in a certain frame of time. The last thing I remember, is explicit.
      Spoiler for EXPLICIT:


      All in all, I'm happy with the LD, and will try and try to get more of 'em. iFire out.

      *I stood over this balcony holding a long piece of string over a small cup. I let go of the stream walk down the balcony and realize that the stream indeed landed with me small cup which I could not see from the top of the balcony.

    5. Fear Hospital (LD #173)

      by , 02-22-2015 at 02:55 PM (Lucid Time!)
      Something to do with a dance-off taking place on a beach. There was an absurdly sized boombox (about the size of a semi trailer) being positioned on the beach. Then the power went out and the man organizing the dance-off was upset because the boombox had to be plugged in.


      I was visiting at a hospital. This wasn't a normal hospital though, it was supposed to treat people of their worst fears. How? By making them suffer trough the trauma of their worst fear again and again but without pain. I don't know completely how this worked but they could make you experience your worst fear as many times as they wanted.

      I don't remember if this was for punishment or what.

      They had a means of extracting what your worst fear was subconsciously.

      I remember seeing the first couple rooms closest to the desk. Patients were grouped by their fear. The people closest to the desk had the worst fear of 'death'. I remember them being hooked up to heart rate monitors. They would start and stop every ten seconds or so, so basically the patient was dying repeatedly in the bed.

      I remember approaching one of the people on the bed. He looked like Liam Nisan for some reason, and he looked as though he was really peaceful. He told me quietly before passing through one of his deaths.

      'my greatest fear is... death...'

      ...

      I remember being back at the front desk. I was looking at a hospital form in a plastic tray. All of the boxes were filled with gibberish. But I could still read them clearly, and they still had English characters in them.

      I was saying to myself how this didn't feel like a normal lucid dream. It felt too clear, too stable and too realistic to be a dream. I felt as though I might be astral projecting or something.

      I decided to run a test on the dream to see how well it behaved. I jumped into the air and pushed my energy down. My little fire jets switched on. I was flying. I had to stay in control though, not hit any people. But this was all the proof I needed. This was a lucid dream, just a very clear and vivid one.

      Sadly I didn't seem motivated to carry out any of my goals or dares.

      I remember feeling like the dream went on for ten minutes or more. But unfortunately I don't have the dream recall to back that up. I do know that It ended with a false awakening.

      Another thing I remember questioning while in the dream was the fact that I was not the least bit scared of the clinic, even thought its sole purpose was to invoke fear. It didn't seem like an evil environment in any way. There were no screams of pain or blood splatters on the wall. It seemed so peaceful, like fear was a good thing.


      I false awoke in my bedroom and my cat had given birth to five cats, identical kittens. The scene was being narrated like a nature show.

    6. Dream Control

      by , 02-22-2015 at 11:38 AM
      Before I jump into the lucid dream(s) I had last night, I would like to first state that I have been visiting Dream Views for a long time looking for different kind of tips and tricks to become and stay lucid. Two days ago I saw an article on Mnemonic Induced Lucid Dream where the suggestion was made to choose some object or something else for that matter and whenever you'd see it in waking life, you should do a reality check. So I decided to go really big and chose the color blue. Everytime I saw something blue I did a reality check and really questioned whether or not I was dreaming. Note that I did this for 1 day only. The results were (for me atleast) great.

      "I'm walking in a badly illuminated building with multiple rooms adjacent to each other. All are connected through doors and every room is just as dark as the one before. I notice I'm following a guy, it seems as if he's leading me to someone. As I look around I notice something blue and I become suspicious. I check my hands to see that I own 12 fingers and I realize that I'm dreaming. Immediately after that I'm upright in my bed, as if awakened from a dream. I immediately notice that I don't remember the act of sitting up, so I suspected it to be a false awakening. After checking my right hand my suspicions were confirmed as I had 7 fingers on one hand.

      As of now, I'm lucid, but everything is still very fuzzy, as always in the few times before I had a lucid dream. Instead of trying the regular techniques like rubbing my hands and spinning around to stabilize it, I assumed my subconscious to be a computer in which I could enter commands. I said 'Dream! Increase vividness to 100%!' and everything became crystal clear. Next I said 'Increase awareness to 100%!' and the level of detail and clarity I achieved was amazing. I had no trouble maintaining the dream and could freely walk through my house without feeling the pressure of the dream trying to take over.

      I went into the kitchen and as it was still dark outside I wanted to turn on the light. However, my goal was to see how well I could control my dream, as I heard it's not too easy. So I decided to turn on the light with my mind. I focused on the bulb and hoped it would turn on. Instead, it leaned towards me as if I was trying to move it, but that was not my intention. I stopped for second and told myself that it's not about hoping it will turn on, but knowing that it will turn on since I'm in control and everything I want will happen. So I tried again and the light turned on. Goal achieved, so I went further.

      At this point it's already light outside and I notice people wanting to come into the kitchen. This is when I decided to test another facet of control and I wanted to put in a door to keep everyone outside. I swiped from right to left and a door swiped in place. I was happy, but not for long. I realised that I put in a DOOR, so everyone opened the door and came in XD. So I went one step further and swiped again, this time swiping in a brick wall. Unfortunately someone got caught in the middle and entered the kitchen anyway, so I thought never mind.

      Next I wanted to see if I could fly, still testing the extent of control. I focused hard and managed to get of the ground. The feeling is amazing! But onwards with the story. I flew throughout the house and got to my room where there is a balcony. I wanted to go outside and see where I could fly to, but it was quite a way down, so I had some doubt. I figured that if I would have something to fly on, perhaps that would be safer. At that moment my dad came in with a broom saying that I could use that. Well why not, witches use it, so I took it and sat on it. I'm still lucid at this point, so it was a sane decision :p. I floated up and towards the edge of the balcony. Eventually I turned around and went back into my room, not because I thaught I was going to fall, but because I sensed some doubt and assumed that if I were to fall, I would lose lucidity. That was too great a risk for me to take.

      So now I'm in my room, thinking what I should do next to test my control. Then I remembered reading here that teleporting was also something, so I decided to try that. I closed the door and expected to open it and walk into the world of 'Murdoch Mysteries', a TV show I'm watching. So I opened the door and there was the morgue, exactly like in the show. I walked around to look at it and the resemblance was uncanny. Nothing much happened that was of significance and I believe the dream took over from there on out.


      Next thing I remember is waking up. I was only a little bit disappointed but mostly really happy that I attained that level of lucidity. Today I will keep checking reality everytime I see blue and hopefully tonight I will feast again. This time I will be looking for the embodiment of my subconcious mind, I have some questions for him. Whoever is reading this, I strongly recommend trying what I did to become lucid. Maybe it will work for you, maybe it won't, but one can always try, right? Well, that's it for today, hopefully I will have a new experience to share tomorrow.

    7. #64 - random mission to save me or something...

      by , 02-22-2015 at 11:10 AM (The Oneironaut's Odyssey)
      Black: Non-dream
      Blue: Non-lucid
      Red: Lucid

      Dream 1 - I got kidnapped (happened 2 nights ago)
      I'm in a homely bar or something, and a person who is doubling as a friend of mine walks in and is pretending to be him but I know he isn't... (the face of the person looks like no one I know). I can't make him mad or something though, so I have to pretend he is my friend, I help him connect to the internet on a laptop in the bar as I believe his intentions are to steal some stuff if he doesn't get what he wants. He ends up kidnapping me instead, because he thinks I'll be more valuable and can help him get what he wants. We're now on an island similar to Master Yoshi's home island on Dragonball Z, the water is blue and there are tropical trees and a small white house. I have to pretend to be his friend still, I know that the only way I can get off the island is if my real friends save me, which can only happen at a certain time due to the ocean currents changing their flow temporarily for 1 day... This leaves a very small window of opportunity. I remember finding something that I can use to get in contact with my friends, I rush through typing something out to them and then throw it as far as I can into the ocean before the 'fake' sees what I've done. He shows up and says something like "Oh wow you've done a number on that one", and is holding the broken thing I threw. I'm hiding my anticipation for escaping the island, I know that I've been on the island for something like 180 days and that the ocean currents are about to change. For some reason I think there is a sunset and it meant that my friends missed the window of opportunity, but they only just manage to make it to me and the next thing I know there is a train track around the house that the fake is trying to escape on, we've become the trains from that thomas the tank engine kids show (this part only lasted like 20 seconds), the driver is the fake friend and is trying to escape but I pull him out and throw him on the ground, he smashes like a lego piece and can't move because his arms and legs have fallen off. Me and my friends turn to leave now, as we leave I turn around again to find the fake sailing away on the grass on a miniature sail raft thing (He has arms and legs now and looks like a super tiny pirate).. the scenery is different too, it's more like the outside of my parents house in the yard. My memory connects him to the bar at the start where he apparently had put up these posters to draw attention (it doesn't make sense at all). He sails away on the grass into the bush so I run and catch him, I throw him off and show him the poster, "This is what started it all aye, not so proud now huh" I toss him aside and the day is won. Me and my friends head back to the bar now, there is a big celebration and party, the bar is quite cosy with dark brown wooden walls and lots of people. The focus is on these 2 people playing darts, a guy and a girl. The guy is known to be really good and the girl is an unknown, she gets up and challenges him. She has long dark brown curly hair, brown eyes and tanned skin. She turns out to be really good at darts and wins and everyone is cheering her on... And that's the end of my random dream O_O.

      Dream 2 - Car crash (happened last night)
      *Nightmare*
      All I remember from this dream is that me, my girlfriend and my daughter were in a ute, my girlfriend was driving and we were in a forested suburban area. We seemed to be coming back from my field trip (of which they weren't a part of irl) where I had just taken a lot of strike and dip measurements for the regional geology. She drove up to a stop point and stopped, but as the way was clear and she started to drive on she suddenly stared blankly off to the distance with a glazed over look... She kept on driving and I had begun to shout something like "road road road!" or "turn turn turn".. something panicked and unsettled because we were heading straight for a wall and she was completely spaced out. I could only think of my daughter getting hurt and how scared I was, then we slammed into a cobblestone wall and I woke up.

      Had to post these pretty late so details are missing and there aren't many dreams, I've been working in the field for the past 4 days away from home so I haven't had internet.
    8. 2015-02-22 mini-epic in former C home, reunion with old dog L

      by , 02-22-2015 at 10:59 AM
      crazy late to bed but interesting dreams and a mini-epic

      + naked in a house, strangers enter, dive into hot tub/pool, taking out the 3 large, dry Christmas trees, the shack burned down

      I'm in the living room of some home. I'm naked and standing near a fireplace mantle and picking up and trying out some bizarre metallic tools (look like freaky surgery instruments) on "the boys" very carefully (these tools look like they could cause severe damage). I notice outside the glass wall [dreamsign] to the back yard there are two stranger (guys and a girl) in the garden. They pull open the door and enter the room, I immediately dive headfirst into the small pool / large hot tub embedded in the floor of the living room right next to me, I tell them something briefly.

      With some other guys, I'm carrying out 3 very tall completely dry/dead Christmas trees. As we're approaching the street I see a small foundation for a shack but the shack is gone. The fire department is there, I ask "did it burn down?" Someone has completely cleared away the debris.

      +(f) doing laundry: there's a backlog waiting for the dryer

      The washer is full of a finished load, wet, there's another load waiting to go, someone (wife?) is directing me what needs to be done

      +(f) buying liquor in a store, huge heavy shopping carts (can't lift, multiple levels), trucks outside

      I have a shopping cart with me, and I'm looking over a ledge to the lower level where there are store clerks and two more shopping carts full of booze, I try reaching down to pull one up, it's way too heavy so I say I'll have to come down. Go outside and there are large semi-trucks there?

      + (mini-epic) back to former C home with wife, enjoying walking around the home and in the garden (so happy to be back [dreamsign!]), watering back lawn & garden, realize we've broken in while the new owners are away on extended vacation, concerned about getting caught (fingerprints!), we've trashed the place it's an amazing mess & have to clean it, wife sleeping on couch, try to clean but just spread more powder, someone rings the doorbell, try to hide, go outside, massive convention of salespeople selling some gizmo, take gizmo in, set it up (but the owners will notice!), lying on mattress in living room, old dog L runs in to me & we have a great reunion

      I'm back in my former C home I'm really happy to be here [emerging dream sign],, I'm walking around just enjoying the green grass in the back yard, and the features of the home. My wife is with me. At some point I'm in the backyard again and I notice the lawn is completely dead/grey, I set some sprinklers / hoses to water the garden (I had done this before?) I suddenly think that the new owners will notice the water usage on their utility bill and question where it came from. I "remember" that they are all away on an extended vacation to India but I don't know when they are returning. Inside the house I think they may be able to figure out that we were there, they could take fingerprints and naturally the police would suspect the former owners of the home and we'd be caught.

      I'm looking around and boy we've really trashed the place. Garbage is strewn all over the floor it's going to take forever to clean it up. (Pomegranate seeds everywhere?). I walk in to the living room and see my wife is sleeping on the couch there, she's completely messed up the blankets/covers on the couch, will we be able to put them back in place?

      The doorbell rings and I look to the front door, the entire front of the house is made of glass walls [false memory, major dream sign], so there's nowhere to hide. We do not answer the door, they could be people who know the new owners, what would we say to them? They soon leave.

      I go outside and the entire neighborhood (an open field) is crawling with salespeople hawking their strange device. The people at the door were probably salespeople. A salesman comes back into the house with me, with a device, it is a bizarre multi-sectioned thing of unknown purpose. We start to set it up in a hallway (in the kitchen?) it involves screwing some large (square-foot) brackets on each wall and running something in between. I think "we can't do this, the new owners will clearly notice this."

      I'm trying to clean with some unknown woman, using a "vacuum" cleaner that on each push forwards emits a large cloud of white powder. It is clearly making more of a mess than cleaning up.

      I'm in the living room lying down on a mattress on the floor. I hear the sound (collar jingling) of my old dog L who is running to meet me. I pull back the covers and make a space for him and he hops right on and stands next to me. I try to smell his fur, I miss that smell of him, but I don't get a clear scent. He's in good spirits and I'm really happy to see him.

      + I return to the dream, I'm talking about dog L with somebody, I see a strange sharp/raw version of his. I say "they told us he had only 2K calories left to live", I break down in tears, I look up his breed (on the computer?) and find 16 years is the maximum lifespan [but one weird case lived to 32], he lived to almost 17, I think we have to put him to sleep before we leave on our move, I say I enjoy our reunions in dreams.

    9. Stealing a car, a boy in a hospital

      by , 02-22-2015 at 10:15 AM (Snehk's Dreamlands)
      First dream

      I went out of school with classmates, and we took my sisters car. I was a passenger while one of them was driving. He barely missed all those cars on the road, and police quickly reacted, and stopped our car. Then we were interrogated. The policeman was reading our notebooks from school, and asking questions from them. When it came to my turn I, quietly as always, said:

      - Amsterdam is a capital of Amsterdam!

      Then the policeman said:

      - I thought that it was a capital of Austria!

      Then another policeman came. They both were taunting us. I jumped mad, and told them that I have some random spinal malformation. I then said: Surprised!? They both nodded their heads simultaneously.

      Second dream

      It was in a hospice. Art exhibition was arranged there. Ill kids were making their own art, which later would be shown in another exhibition. Visitors were allowed to contribute in their art. After a small walk, I decided to take a pencil and draw some darker shades on one of the works. They were fitting to the composition, but the kid painting it was dissapointed. A few months later we drove with siblings to another hospice, where that kid was placed after the exhibition. My sisters were touched by the look of this small, ill child. I stood expresionless, even when the child was staring at me and crying. I was visiting it through the whole years, and he became some kind of brother to me. I was giving him advices, and telling him what awaits him beyond the walls of the hospice.
    10. Toy Vending Machine

      by , 02-22-2015 at 08:22 AM
      Morning of February 22, 2015. Sunday.

      Dream #: 17,597-03. Reading time (optimized): 1 min.



      My gadget dream starts with my youngest son’s birthday (which was in real life recently). My attention is on a miniature Coca-Cola vending machine that changes over time. I look into it from the upper part of the back, and it is bigger inside. I see metallic mechanisms in the inner compartment. The toys are within the mostly hollow mechanical sections instead of the front for distribution.

      I retrieve a couple of items from it. I look farther down and notice several cut-out daily black-and-white comic strips taped upside-down over the internal silver walls. One, with four panels, features crows flying around and seemingly attacking Mary Worth. I think about taking the comic strips out to read, but I do not as they seem too far down to reach and pull out.

      After I examine the inside of the toy vending machine, I give my son two of the presents from it. One is a raccoon figure (possibly a windup toy) and the other a jigsaw puzzle, made from packing peanuts, of a squirrel. It is in a small transparent pillow-shaped bag. Zsuzsanna cheerily complains about its quality. We leave it unopened because of already having an identical puzzle (false memory). I suspect the pieces are too soft to stay connected, and they also crumble. We will likely discard the duplicate.



      The raccoon figure is likely an association with one lost at a previous address, but which had belonged to our oldest son. The puzzle is an association with being in liminal space.

    12. Shapeshifters

      by , 02-21-2015 at 11:52 PM
      My brother is lying in fetal position on the ground, out in the woods, blood on his hands up to his elbows, just now returned to human form and very out of it. There's a girl with him. In the previous scene they'd been on a date in a restaurant, and she'd already known he wasn't human, and that he was violent - she'd gotten some kind of thrill out of it. But now that she's actually seeing the reality of it for herself, she's yelling at him, and being horrified by the blood on her own hands where she'd touched him. I'm watching from a distance, and I'd intended to give them privacy, but now that I've seen her reaction I'm disgusted by her - and disgusted by his behavior too, but that's not unusual. I allow her to see me and I go to get my brother on his feet.

      Another time. I'm standing next to that same girl, making sure she doesn't do anything to interfere. We're watching a friend of hers go through a sort of rite of passage. She's standing in the woods, holding a sickle. Some variety of large wild cat walks out of the woods. The girl is supposed to kill that cat, but she doesn't move - she can't do it. The cat kills her instead. The cat then returns to her human form; her animal form was supposed to be passed down through her death.

      Another time. A mistake's been made and we're going to need to allow one of our people to go to prison. An older man is offering to take the fall for her - he's been in prison before and he thinks it would be better this way. The youngest of us says there has to be some way to avoid this - none of us can leave this territory anyway, so a prison seems pointless to her.

      I and another detective was doing an investigation on apartment that was said to have a man with a shotgun. When we first enter the building through the kitchen back door. We've notice that all the lights were off with exception of the kitchen light. We quickly pointed are guns checking all the area's down stairs. In till both of us could hear his voice from upstairs. That is when we both started moving, however I stayed back for a few more seconds. I then realize that my partner had vanish nor could I hear him.

      I could see a light coming from the garage. I pointed my gun and then enter seeing if anyone was there. When I heard someone moving, I turn around and saw a woman in a green clownish dress with a mask. She was holding two weapons that were long cartoonish looking hammers. She quickly hit me with one of them on top of my head. The impact surprise me as it wasn't as strong as I thought it would be. I use the end of my gun to attack her.

      However the impact was easily block nor did it cause either one of us to feel tense. This is when I became aware I was dreaming. We both soon high five with one another as the serious tension had been broken. I then have an FA to where I could feel my body being very floatable. I soon caught on that I must be dreaming still. I haven't open my eyes yet to tell though. When I did I found myself in Father room. This convince me that I must really be awake now. Then lose lucidity. Lucidity Time: 24 seconds

    14. A Big Hug, a Smile, and a Dream Figure Acknowledging Lucidity - Feb 20, 2015

      Wake Back to Bed (WBTB) for about 1 hour (studied lucid dream techniques). I incubated a dream by using pictures while repeating a mantra for 10 minutes. Lights out followed by about 45 minutes of deep meditation with hypnagogic imagery and voices, then I fell consciously asleep (failed WILD). About 15 minutes later I woke up after having this dream induced lucid dream (DILD) and OBE attempt:

      In this dream I was sitting in a darkly lit room with a friend watching TV. I thought to myself, I’m supposed to be attempting a WILD right now, not watching TV! I looked around the room to find a place to go back sleep, but there wasn’t any place suitable, and I was concerned the TV would interfere with my sleep, so I decided to go upstairs. Half way up the stairs my vision went black, and then I realized I was in fact already dreaming! I sat down on the top step holding onto the bannister, thinking, how can I get my vision back, so I could continue on with this lucid dream (LD). Suddenly I was back in bed, consciously awake, but my body was sleep.

      Then somebody hugged me! It was a long lasting firm hug, and I felt safe. Then I got ‘the vibrations’, and I thought, “Great, time to OBE exit!” I opened my ‘dream eyes’ and I saw a glowing, yellow/orange hoop floating in front of me (a porthole), and sitting on my bed, to my right, was my daughter! She had beautiful, long, full body hair, the biggest smile, and she was saying something, but I couldn’t hear what she was saying, because there was a lot of electrostatic buzzing and crackling sounds. She was now pulling on my shoulders for me to get up! I normally leap to my feet when I feel the ‘the vibrations’, so that’s what I tried to do, but instead my physical body moved, and it was over. I was now physically awake. Darn it! Thinking back on the situation, given the circumstances, I should have tried to sit-up in bed instead of leaping to my feet.

      After several more dreams, I ended up having another DILD. In this dream I was at work, and there were several incongruities that tipped me off that I was dreaming. First; buildings that don’t exist; second, ceilings way taller than waking world; and finally, an employee lounge. Yes, an employee lounge could only truly exist in a dream! Not only that, a waiter walked up to me and offered me pancakes! I walked out of the lounge onto a wooden deck. There were several people sitting around enjoying the gorgeous, sunny, summer afternoon. There was a man standing beside the deck and I walked up to him, because I recognized him from somewhere (not sure where). I sincerely said, “Howdy mister!”, and he looked at me with a huge smile and replied, “Ahh, I see! Doesn’t it feel really uplifting when you become lucid!”, as he reached down with both hands and cupped his stomach, and then he raised one arm up above his head, while making a flowing action with his hand. I looked at him, and said, “Yes, that’s it! It’s like a huge adrenaline rush, and it’s all brilliant!”

      Right after I said how brilliant lucid dreams are, my vision started to fade, so in an attempt to maintain lucidity, I leapt from the porch to fly, but I crash landed on my chest. By this point everything was blurry and distorted, and then I tried to shoot up into space, but I just fell backwards onto the ground. By this point all was black, and I was lying perfectly motionless, focussing my intent to get back into the dream. Then, very unexpectedly, somebody grabbed onto my right ankle and started to rotate me slowly counter clockwise. By this point I was consciously awake, with my body asleep, and I was back in bed, but still rotating. Somebody was still pulling on my ankle! It felt like I made one or two more rotations in bed, and then they let go. I felt myself slowly align with my physical body. I woke up and continued to lie perfectly still while recalling all of the dream experiences. Once I was satisfied that I had remembered all the dreams I could, then I did my voice recording. I went back to sleep and had many more wonderful dreams. It was wonderful, amazing night full of dreams.
    15. Bookcase Bed

      Morning of February 21, 2015. Saturday.



      This is a fairly short dream that plays out somewhat like the art and style of Ernie Bushmiller. The main focus and “prop” is a large wooden three-tired empty bookcase in a mostly featureless room in an undefined location. There are three unknown male characters who are rendered somewhat comic-strip-like. It is not like I am disembodied at the scene but watching the scenario through a large portal. It is not rendered all that realistically and the depth is not very defined; it is almost like a “living comic strip”.

      One male approaches the bookcase (which is on the right side of my perspective) and I am aware that he is going to sleep in the top shelf (without any bedding apparently, and while fully dressed) as if it were some sort of three-storey bunk-bed. Not much happens after this. The other two are somewhat cheerful but remain standing. For a vague moment, there is an association with some sort of concept of a challenge regarding (unknown) indoctrination.

      It is possible that this sequence has something to do with the phrase “bunker down” as associated with “batten down” as they have been repeating this phrase over and over during the recent cyclone warning which has now passed.
