    1. 16-10-01 School Meltdown

      by , 10-02-2016 at 11:59 PM
      I recall being with a bunch of people (funny how I'm so often near people in dreams, but most of my days IRL are spent in complete solitude) in a school. At some point, there's a guy who loses his shit (a teacher pissed him off?) and violently throws a glass bottle onto the ground, shattering it into a million pieces. I admired him for "sticking it to the man" and tried to express my admiration, but he was pissed and ignored me. I think he bumped into me as he walked away.

      Later, we're sitting at a table together. We were teamed up for some reason. Suddenly, unprovoked (we weren't even speaking), he got mad again and shattered another bottle on the table. He silently threatened me with the sharp, broken bottle he's still holding. Then he got up and left. This time, I got furious with indignation. I made quite a scene, trying to get someone to listen to me, and acknowledge what that guy just did. I said I could have been killed, but no one listen or took me seriously. I talked to some authority figure, who dismissed my claims and even implied I was a hypocrite and had done something similar myself. I denied it, as I could not remember doing such a thing. This accusation me even more furious, borderline hysterical actually. The feeling of powerlessness, of being mocked by everybody, I just couldn't handle it. I yelled that I was going to the cops. I saw my former boss arrive at his office on his "shift". He noticed the drama, but ignored it and went into his office. I think I tried calling the cops earlier during my meltdown, but couldn't do it. I was just too pissed to properly use my smartphone...

      I went to bed at about 12:00 PM. I was tired and i wanted to lay down, although i wouldn't sleep right away. I wanted to meditate instead of laying down, but... i felt tired... maybe i should investigate this lethargy in meditation itself. I fell asleep at 2 AM and i woke up at 8 AM. Then i stayed in bed and fell asleep. Woke up one hour later having dreamt more vividly. Then i just didn't got up because of lethargy (and this is dangerous because it can create a bad habit) and slept until 12:00.

      Dreams of 08:00

      I wrote in the cellphone "pizzas and household life", i don't even know what that means... i don't remember anything with that.

      Dreams of 09:00

      I dreamt being in a house, maybe it was linked with a university campus or something like that. The house looked like the house that my grandmother has, but also in combination with a carpentry, and it was abandoned but visited frequently. There was my mathematics teacher, one of the best teachers in the Faculty of Economics in University of Cordoba. He gave me really clear advice on decisions or about future decisions in my life. As soon as he finished he had to go, but i apreciated his advice. If i had to remember what advice he gave me i couldn't but i wrote something down: it was like something about the goals in one end, and oneself in another end, and one has to paint (like explaining something of mathematics, the area) all that is in the middle and that's the most important.*

      Then i appeared in the entry room of my grandparents house. There my grandmother told me she had cancer. I think i told her i already knew but i was glad she told me personally, maybe because she is preparing to die, with acts of forgiveness and not hiding any secrets, i liked it. My grandfather said, well its not so serious, one doesn't know that one has cancer until the day one dies. Actually i disagreed with this (maybe i wanted to close my eyes before and think it this way but not now) because death is one kind of suffering but sickness is another, and that is really there. But i didn't reply because my uncle, José, arrived with his wife.

      We were in a meeting in the dining room. My grandparent gave me a zapallo as drink. We toast. I say something, although i knew it wasn't the time to say it, that two nights ago i dreamt with Dario... (and silly of me not realizing that was a dream as well...) Analía asks what i said, and there was a baby next to her that asked what (the baby was a friend of mine but with that form...). Analia slaps the baby, and the baby just didn't react. I was offended by this action of my aunt and took the baby for a ride in a car. I was going to teach him/her how to play. I drove in calle Las heras of Rio Cuarto, and it was dark. Then i turn to my left before the bridge and i enter a neighborhood i didn't know before. I thought that i couldn't stop otherwise they would steal or kidnapp us. I saw many little elephants of clay outside the houses. I got lost and i thought i couldn't go back, and i was already to deep inside the neighborhood. There was something strange with that neighborhood. I wait till i get caught. Then i think i get caught and we loose everything, i even loose my life and i am reborn again in another realm. Only the baby could keep his life.**

      Then 12:00

      - There was a trafic with about 8 nude women. I just take no interest in them. Then gradually they began dissapearing, one by one. Until the last one was alone, called Narda. I suddenly looked at her, just because of curiosity, what was she doing there... well i deduced that she got payed for being there, as publicity but of course she was not just publicity. As soon as i looked at her 7 more women appeared in a blink. I said, no, i don't want this, im off. And instead of waiting for them to vanish again i left... (i think i should have let them vanish all of the 8 completely).
      - Home and my mother travelled south of Argentina.
      - Walking barefoot in the streets. Felt great.*** I walked in a church, nobody told me anything, but i noticed people in there was there by habit or ignorance. There was nothing i could share or that this people could share with me. I left. As soon as i got out i am surrounded by police (this happened to me once, lol). They fired me with thorns, that maybe were going to put me in sleep, so i pulled them out. Then like a woman came and just used her superpowers and artiluges to create a force barrier of orange colour so police couldn't come in. Police threteaned her but she held, however i told her not to worry and that she could leave, i would be ok. So she left and i woke up.



      Notes:

      Reading Serene posts about the voice and her dreams on how she got alerted about events in life inspired me
      *The interpretation i would give is that i was focusing much on the goals while loosing perspective of the present or the path. Maybe i was restless while i could be calm.
      ** The day before i thought about Oti and how i got myself in a neighborhood like that with the car, however the neighborhood i really got myself in was more dangerous.
      That neighborhood looks very similar in my dreams. It is like a recurring dream. One characteristic it has is that it's like a maze, once i get in it's difficult to find the way out, because maybe it changes... I have to think in the impermance of dreams, this is because im not lucid. If i were to be lucid i would know that it changes so quickly because its a dream.
      *** Facu told me some months ago that Steve Jobs used to walk barefoot in his house. I thought, why not in the whole planet? Well now im thinking that buddhist monks walk on alms barefoot, so its possible. They are homeless, but i think i make a distinction about ordinary homeless and monks. I think there shouldn't be that distinction, because if there is im thinking about status, and what scares me about homeless people is that they have no status. Otherwise it would be a great lifestyle in my opinion. So maybe im attached to my status, and this is something i should let go.

    4. Strangeness

      by , 10-02-2016 at 06:53 PM
      I could have been all powerful, but my interest was running pretty low. I chose to be a mage out of the 5 available classes, not to mention the paths each lass had, and this choice was good. I was respected, and for some reason I had the ability to steal cars, which I did often. Sometimes cops were after me, sometimes they were with me. At one point Heeney was my girlfriend, another she'd been dead for years. Strangeness.

    5. Training at Kami's Lookout

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I woke up about 5 hours into my sleep and stayed up for 25 minutes. I went to bed and kept repeating to myself I would remember I was dreaming. Hypnagogia started and turned into a dream

      I was running through a forest. It was 11pm but the sun was still setting. A guy sprinted past me. I realized I was really far from the exit and it would soon be dark. I picked up my pase and then decided to cut off the path and run straight towards the nearest street parallel to the park. I was climbing over rocks, docking under fallen trees. I then remembered something and started waking up.

      I stayed still and SP set in right away. I tried to get up but couldn't. I waited a bit longer and felt the vibrations through my body and the buzzing sound. I got a little anxious and had an HI about a demon trying to rip open my mouth, but somehow I calmed myself down and told myself I would destroy the demon as soon as I was able to stand up in my LD.

      The buzzing stopped, I got up. I looked around my room, I was alone. I exited my room and went down the stairs. Fiona was lying on the stair rest. It seemed a bit light outside telling by the brightness inside the house, but when I opened the front door, it was night time. I stepped outside; the street lights made the street bright enough for me to stabilize. I rubbed my hands and looked at them. They seemed normal, and really clear. I looked up and could see the Milky Way, it was beautiful. I realized it felt as if my right eye was closed. I remembered Dolphin's advice, and instead of trying to open it (which usually ends up in me trying not to open my waking body eye and destabilizing my dream) I told myself I would "look" through my closed eye, and it worked perfectly. I walked down the street and wondered if I should fly to, or teleport to Kami's Lookout. I decided I would fly, but I needed to make it day time in order to find it in the sky.

      I took out my Ocarina and tried playing the Sun's Song. The first time I accidentally played Epona's Song. I tried again, this time I hit the correct notes. The sun came up but then set right away and I heard the wolf sound that accompanies that in the game. I played it again, this time it came up and the morning sound came on. It was bright and now more stable. I decided to start running before taking off. I gained a lot of speed and ended up running through a restaurant. Suddenly, something on my peripheral vision caught my attention, I thought Goku was there. I stopped and looked to my left; it was just a fat guy cosplaying Goku. His hair was really silly.

      I went outside and took off. I was flying through the sky and saw many "fake" lookouts; they were floating structures similar to Kami's Lookout, but they were small, square, or simply flat without any structures built on them. I kept flying and finally spotted Korin's Tower in the distance. I flew towards it and then started climbing it. I could just fly next to it, but I am a climber and thought it would be more appropriate to climb it. I noticed the indigenous designs on the tower, they seemed like the ones from the cartoon.


      I reached Korin's House. He was once again just leaning against a wall, holding his staff and eyes closed. I called out his name, his ears moved the way a cat's ears move when they hear something. He walked towards me and smacked me in the head with his staff. I laughed and jumped on his house's roof. I pulled out Goku's red staff, placed it on the ground, and held on to it as it extended towards Kami's Lookout





      I reached Kami's Lookout and climbed the ladder. I was on the side opposite to the main house. I walked across and reached the house. I went inside; once again Mr Popo received me. He gave me a wetsuit this time and told me to go through a door to get ready. Once inside I noticed a lot of my friends were there.
      I lost some lucidity. I wondered where Goku was. Mr Popo told me we were all going to be competing, and the winner would then get to train with Goku. I kept using my dream powers to do stuff like putting on the wet suit instantly, also made an annoying guy disappear. We were instructed to go to the lounge room. My friend Cali and I led the group to one of the adjacent domes, where we assumed the Lounge room was.






      I became lucid again. Inside we were received by random DCs and were told we had to jump down to the surface and come back up. My adrenaline levels went up, this was my opportunity to get to train with Goku. We ran and jumped off the edge. As I was free falling, I lost my dream body and was now in 3rd person. This allowed me to fall faster by "zooming in" into the surface. Once I reached the surface I saw Trunks and Piccolo talking. I inhabitted Trunk's body, and then used Goku's teleportation to get back to Kami's Lookout. It was a tie between Steven and I. We were instructed to fight inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. Mr Popo led us inside, and then closed the door.

      Can't remember what happened afterwards, but I probably had a FA.
      I will try to train with Goku once more, and if that doesn't happen I will move on to beating Zelda Dungeons. This was one of the longest LDs I've ever had. I probably forgot a lot of details when I lost lucidity; I had a couple more dreams after this one and I hadn't written anything down.

    6. No Loitering Please

      by , 10-02-2016 at 04:02 PM
      Morning of October 2, 2016. Sunday.



      I am in our front yard at our present address in late morning. Three of my fictitious sons and one real one (the youngest; Oliver) are present. They are in a group facing each other. There are also a few unknown children, both male and female, closer to the curb. No one is perceived as mischievous.

      I absentmindedly tell a fictitious son, “I told you not to stand around at the front of our house”.

      Immediately after this, I am facing a young girl and it is implied that she thought I had said this to her. The sudden location shift, as if I had unwillingly rapidly turned counterclockwise as my fictitious son only moved slightly to my right so that I now suddenly faced the girl, does not strike me as impossible or trigger any realization that it could only be a dream.

      I inform her that I was not talking to her but was saying this to my son in the hopes of not offending her. I am not sure why I am making an implied apology to the preconscious avatar, but this situation seems a bit backwards, as it would make more sense to tell strangers not to hang around at the front of our house rather than our own children (whether they are only a dream state denizen or not).



      This dream is not symbolic of, or literally relevant to, any recent real-life event and I would certainly not talk to any of our children this way in real life. It is typical waking transition autosymbolism that often involves the preconscious avatar (the unknown girl in this case) initiating a return-to-consciousness trigger, in this case, because I had been asleep on my right side (which I consider unhealthy, as it results in lighter and less restful sleep). In this case, it is a precursor to rolling over in bed (counterclockwise as in my dream), in the direction Zsuzsanna is sleeping (on my left).

    7. 2016-10-02 many scenarios

      by , 10-02-2016 at 12:24 PM
      + miniature stick constructions from big log, avoiding giants on the road.

      +(f) [last night perhaps?] on a beach listening to the "shhhhhh"ing sound that the waves made as they pulled back and the water sinks

      + old woman tag, fragile bugs on plants, woman races and breaks her leg (compound practically, bone sticking out but skin not broken), I prepare ice pack thinking about how best to make it at what temperature and with how much insulation, in my CH back porch, hopping over washing machine which is blocking my way.

      + in CA central valley, dark stormy skies, cold, cartoon-colored houses in a row, see lightning going off in the distance, group of kids from across the street comes to us (I'm a kid?)

      + playing pinball, punching buttons trying to understand the starting controls, many balls in play, I vigorously hit the flippers, afterwards I"m in my car and my strikingly beautiful girlfriend comes up to me to say goodbye, leans through the window and kisses me. I love her so much, she is so beautiful, I should just break up with her now otherwise she will 100% break my heart. She puckers up and leans in, her mouth is way too small when she puckers, like a 1/4 inch in diameter.

      + girls gymnastics in huge hall, the library card dispenser machine goes BZZZT! and displays a message that all the cards are sold out, this happens every time I try to key in the "purchase card" combo.

      + buying socks in crowded department store aisle with my kids, "Excuse me, young man", trying to find matching orange-band white athletic socks in the bin, many very orange socks and some with the band but they're too thin, cheap feeling, to my right I notice colorful shorts: in my GS colors of purple and gold, in shiny, satiny material. I take them out and look at them and determine they're too girly-looking: they have terry-cloth portions and are quite small it turns out.

      Another night dreaming about the sea! (last week it was cats)

      1) I think I was on holiday. I was in a queue, in my car to start with, then on foot, in a seaside town, queuing to get to the sea to go surfing. there were some children behind me, as we reached the sea they pushed past me in the queue, but I let it go. I could see the sea in the distance.
      The sea then became a small indoor pool. It had just opened and we all walked inside. It was actaully mostly a hard indoor surface with a small pool in the corner. Lots of people were finding a spot to settle down. I looked for somewhere to put my towel but it was all wet. I started talking to another man asking where I could go without sitting in a wet area. He atrted explainig to me about the activities on offer and that the surfing was a disaster because the pool was so small and the water was flowing so slowly, so they wouldn't be doing it again today.

      2) Sitting at a table talking to a young man opposite me. One of my old doctor partner was sitting next to me. We were tlaking about smoking roll ups and about what the best tobacco is. I don't smoke. I watched as the doctor next to me rolled up a cigarette as well and I rememberd seeing her smoke once before and I commented on that.
      Then I was walking around somewhere and someone was commenting that I acted as if I am married (I am) but in the dream I was just in a relationship. I was calling my girlfriend 'the wife' and started thinking how I was acting as if I was married.
      Then I was in a room with a glass wall watching a woman talking to my children. They were standing by a pond and going to harvest some of the weeds in the pond. They had laid down a floating path on the pond.

      WHY AM I DREAMING ABOUT WATER AND THE SEA SO MUCH??

    10. Laser beams and Digitized Multi-tools

      by , 10-02-2016 at 07:07 AM
      Lucid
      Side note
      Non-lucid

      Pretty cool lucid, can't remember all of it though.





      I gained spontaneously lucidity. It was a very bright day and I was on a trampoline. My sister was talking to me. She kept annoying me so I created a laser from my finger and shined it in her eyes. It acted more like a red-dot laser and a small flashlight simultaneously. I made a cranking motion with my other hand and it became brighter. She left me alone after that. My lucidity levels dropped and suddenly it snowed really hard making several feet of snow.


      I kept trying to create a tool to melt the snow but it didn't work. I walked into my house but it was super dark even though it had windows. This was a past dream sign of mine, and every time it turned out really bad so I walked outside again. I tried “grabbing” it from the corner but expectation just wasn't helping. I decided to run right through the wall of snow and felt the sting of the cold on my face. It significantly raised my lucidity so I tried to summon the tool again. I first started by creating a pen out of thin air. I managed to actually create it inside my vision giving me confidence of my dream control. Then I imagined the pen turning into a tool.


      The snow levitated from the ground and then digitized around the staff forming new parts of it slowly. In the end I was left with this weird red stick with a small black figure of an elephant. I used it to melt the snow and create new snow. My sister seemed vaguely impressed in the background. It had tons of buttons all over it so I pressed one randomly and it created a bunch of bees.

      I panicked and pressed a “world reset” button. It brought the world back to the way it was before I had changed it so I dived into the snow again. Afterwards I slowly lost lucidity until I had almost none at all. The dream changed into a portal-like game I was trying to solve with an underworld theme. After doing that for about three minutes I spontaneously forced myself to wake up, so that I wouldn't forget this lucid.

    11. Flash Light

      by , 10-02-2016 at 06:51 AM (Cities in the Astral)
      I actually had a fairly long stretch of non-lucid dream in which I had been to a Rainbow Gathering. Lisa was there and asked if I would drop her off at a cabin that was on my way home. We got in a car and drove. She had me stop at a building and we interacted with a DC in the building. When we went outside the girl disappeared. I realized it was a dream. I started looking for the car. It was not there. I planned on summoning a sports car, perhaps with a gold metallic flake finish, but decided I would just fly where ever I was going to go. I feel like I will need the ladder that is near by? Seriously? Yes, an inner voice tells me I will need the ladder soon. What, should I hall a ladder around? Fuck that. No, you need the ladder. Fine, I will shrink it and keep it in my pocket, hows that? No response. I shrink the ladder. The visuals fuck up and the ladder kind of just disappears. Whatever. I see a flashlight. I pick it up and decide to make it work. I look into the lense and it is off. I focus and it comes on shining light. The girl calls to me from a near by motel room door. I go over there and the dream quality falls off to an nREM state.

    12. Plucking Stars From the Sky

      by , 10-02-2016 at 06:30 AM (Cities in the Astral)
      This was a long DILD that went for at least 10 minutes. I stabilized 3 times successfully. Highlights: I look up and see a beautiful sky of stars. I decide i will fly up to the stars and pluck some from the sky. I superman up there and find that the stars are made of doughnuts (crullers). I took one in hand and flung it to earth. I did this to a second one (should have ate one). In another part I was inside a giant crystal dome climbing on scaffolding. I went outside and was on top of the dome. I heard a large crack like breaking ice and flew off.

    13. Tamer version of the tv show Shameless

      by , 10-02-2016 at 02:52 AM
      I was living as a part of family that was meager in means & was constantly trying to find ways to pay the bills in some shady ways & some resourceful ways. This dream reminded me a tamer version of the tv show Shameless (American Edition). I was the mother. Lots of kids! It started at a school where one of my kids were being bullied & his sister was w/ him. It got chaotic & fast paced so I can't include all of the details or it will just be monotonous because this was a really long dream. One of the kids informed me at this point that their father went to jail but I didn't ever find out why. We then were plunged into the dark in our house. I didn't panic. I sat the kids down & had a heart to heart about us having to come up w/ ways to get our lights back on. We all were laughing at the craziness of the situation & different ideas that we had to pay our electric bill. In the end the lights came back on & we were all laughing yet again.

      It was a feel good dream. Lots of fun for a change. I woke up again today w/ a runny nose. I hate allergies. I'll be glad when I make it through the seasonal change & can breathe a little better. It mostly just bothers me in the morning & right before I go to sleep. Unfortunately it affects my dreams sometimes. I live in an old house so it makes my allergies 10 times worse.
