Me and another person were in a car. We were both preteens, and we were on our way to pull a heist or something of the sort. We were stopped by an elderly policeman because I was an underage driver. I saw myself having options on how to deal with the situation. I felt like I have been here before and picked the option to trick the policeman and escape. I also saw an option to beat him up with a blunt object. I decided to pick the latter out of curiosity. I hit him several times as he got more and more agitated and didn't see fazed by being hit, but he finally collapsed, although he didn't suffer any physical damage. I felt bad so we hauled him to the hospital.

The doctor thought we were just helpful kids. LIttle did she know that I caused this. She said that the man had suffered a stroke. So I suppose he didn't get hurt at all from being hit. Jeez, who's this guy, old Superman?

I am lucid.
A golden old-fashioned car with it's doors wide open manifest. I jump in. It starts flying. Soon I am in space. The planet density is ridiculous for my knowledge of astronomy. I fly past them until I see an icy planet. I start descending. I land into this icy arch. A chipmunk scrambles past and attempts to exit the arch. It evaporates. I get out. I see an elephant dressed in orange walk across the crevasse.
On the top of the walls of the crevasse there are elephants in purple. The orange elephant tries to get a purple elephant to give him money. He says "I am your father's brother. [give me some]" The other elephant refuses. He says "I don't care about my father's brother." They bicker until I wake up.

Sorry team, had 2 non-lucids but life got in the way & I couldn't log either. Sigh. Kids are now gone though, so I'm hopeful for tonight.

I am lucid.
I fly over a blue city river and descend on to the city. I am on an street and people start to stare at me. I realize I am floating. I quickly will myself invisible. The street has a mysterious dreamy orange tint. People behind stalls are selling bizarre objects. Along the buildings there is a gap where a staircase is. I wander up it. It spirals round and round and it starts to feel like it going to go on forever. However I reach the top. I am in a temple sort of area and there are pillars standing tall. I ask "Show me my dream guide?" Nothing happens. I prostrate my self. I say "Please!". I eventually say in desperation, "God!" I should add I am a militant atheist. The scene changes. I am flying over a forest. A warm male voice says "She is traversing these slopes. You may not see her now." I wake up.

So I'm just deciding to post some noteworthy dreams here just in the hopes that it'll help convince myself that this is important.

First entry is a dream from a long time ago but easily the best dream I've ever had, and therefore I thought I'd start with this one.

I'm in a totally dark room with some friends, nothing in it, no doors, no windows. We somehow manage to make a window leading into outer space, and we attach a rope to the inside of the room before hopping out. There are tons of planets and stars all close by, swirling around our entrance into the cosmos. Very vivid. We dangle from the rope and experience weightlessness.

Will post more noteworthy dreams later!

I have been super bad with staying motivated with doing anything related to lucid dreaming.. It's not that I don't want to, it's that I'm so deplete by the end of the day both mentally and physically. Work drains the brain and the sports I do just wear my body out . I wrote a few dreams up a while ago and just reached my 64th lucid dream. I feel like I should have had more lucid dreams and better progress by now, but I know this is a hobby that requires patience.

Shark dream
I dreamed about being in an enclosure, like an aquarium or zoo. The place I was in had an aquatic part and I remembered getting into the water. There was a huge shark in there but I wasn't fussed, it didn't bother me and when it swam up to me to try eat me, I just leaped up and stepped on its head then jumped over it. I felt like I was dodging around it playfully. My friends were in another pool nearby so I headed over to them.

I was playing SCP: Containment Breach one day on a fresh new save. I was trying out this new mod that made the game more gruesome and terrifying. I was in my cell, immediately noticing the extended height of the ceiling and the lump of moldy flesh on the sink and the toilet. Almost immediate, the door opens. The guard doesn't say anything, so I just leave the cell anyways. "tomorrow is vacant," the guard said. "and today, everything is wrong". All of a sudden, everything starts to bloom and glow so much that i can barely make out my surroundings. The background music stops entirely. all the while, I hear this weird metal grinding sweep noise as I fall face-up onto the ground.

1. I had just closed my eyes to do WBTB, and seconds after doing so, a dream formed. I focused on the dream and seconds later I was fully immersed within it and was fully lucid. I was standing on the roof of a super tall building that was made of all concrete. More specifically, I was standing on the edge on the corner of this roof. Beyond me as far as I could see was an ocean. The sun was setting and the sky was filled with smooth clouds that were a mixture of blue purple and pink in color. The entire sky was like this. Because the clouds were this color, the majority of the ocean in front of me was the same color as well. "Wow" I remember saying out loud. The scene was amazing.
I looked behind me and saw tons of futuristic buildings, and some of them looked slightly similar to the one I was standing on. This city or whatever it was, looked like it was asleep. There was no movement down below and I saw no people. As a slightly strong wind blew over me, I thought of what I should do. "It's been a while since I've flown" I thought to myself. With that, I jumped off the roof with the intention to fly, but I had no idea how well I was going to do. Immediately I started plummeting towards the ground far below me, but within seconds I gained control and started flying. However, control might not be the right word because I ended up not being able to control where I was going. I instantly started ascending higher and higher into the sky at an extremely rapid pace, and the feeling of adrenaline that came with this was a little overwhelming.
Within the next 30 or so seconds I found myself leaving the Earth's atmosphere. A wave of fear rushed through me, but quickly dissipated as I reminded myself "This is a dream." Soon I was floating out in space, just looking at the Earth from this point of view. Surrounding the Earth's atmosphere I could see many large space stations and space ships. At this point I realized how far out in space I was, and I also became aware of how cold it was. The coldness was not unbearable at all though, and it actually felt quite good. Suddenly my vision starts fading and I hear some futuristic female voice with a british accent saying "dream destabilizing" accompanied by a constant beeping noise. In the moment, I wasn't sure how to respond to this because I rarely have dreams in space, and my only way of stabilizing was by keeping my awareness up which was hard to do given the unexpectedness of the situation. Seconds later I awoke.

2. I was riding an electric scooter up and down my friend Pat's street, and a lot of people and friends were outside along with me. It seemed like it was the afternoon considering the sun was setting and it just merely felt like it. I don't think any of my really close friends were outside with me(the squad and bros), but they were still friends nonetheless. I remember that all of these friends that were outside with me were mad at me, but I wasn't sure why. I got the notion that they thought I was evil or something because of their actions towards me. My friend Grant was in a four-seater go-cart along with 3 other friends and as I was riding this electric scooter south down Pat's street, Grant was charging at me at full speed with his go-cart.
This was the exact point where I realized that they all truly thought I was evil. Since I was riding my scooter close to the curb, I had no way of escaping Grant's full force go-cart. I had only seconds left to decide what I was going to do in order to evade and potentially harmful situation. Right as Grant's go-cart was within 3 feet of me I yelled, "Roll up" and suddenly my scooter jumped about 5 or 6 feet into the air and over Grant. I landed safely and rode the scooter for a few more seconds until I stopped and got off. As I turned back around I saw Grant and some other friends walking towards me laughing. "Dude how the fuck did you do that?" Grant asked. "I'm not evil guys" I replied.
With that they all walked back and went inside Pat's house. I could hear music coming from inside so I assumed that he was throwing a party again. As they walked inside I looked and saw that all of the lights were off, but there were some flickering club-type dance lights blinking on and off. At the moment I am still a few houses to the left of Pat's house. Suddenly I notice A walking on the sidewalk. I start walking to Pat's house, with the intention that I'm most likely not going to talk to her. However, that immediately changes as I walk up to her and we are now walking side by side. The neighborhood was now quiet and a soft breeze blew against us. A was wearing a cyan fleece hoodie and blue skinny jeans.
"I haven't seen you in a while" I said nonchalantly. "I know, I have to tell you something really important" A says with a serious but calm voice. "How? You seem like you're drunk right now haha" I told her. "No trust me I'm fine" she replies. A then proceeded to tell me a few major things that have been on her mind about the idea of "Us". I don't remember 2 of the things she told me, but the one that stuck with me was when she said "I've known you and missed you since I was a little kid. And I don't even know how that makes any sense because we didn't even meet each other for the first time until 7th grade. This entire time I've been missing you and just waiting for you to come back. I've missed you for years Cory" she told me as her eyes filled up with tears.
Right as she said this I went into deep thought about everything and the past of her and I. It really struck my heart to say the least. After some seconds had passed she said "I have to go inside now. I'll talk to you again later." I remember that she was sniffling as she walked into Pat's house. I remained standing in Pat's driveway where we had stopped walking and contemplated over the conversation I just had with A. In no time at all a tear streamed down my face and the words "Someone by your side" echoed in my mind.

I thought with only 3 hours of sleep last night that I would try for an hour nap. No success for sleep but one HH after another. I was only in bed for 45 minutes total.

1. Saw a wall with screens on it that were each showing images scrolling up on each one and there were at least 30. As I tried to pick out any image that looked familiar they started going really fast. I chuckled (my mind is teasing me, nanny nanny boo boo you can't see me) my heart was beating faster as the images were going so fast, I thought to myself "slow down damn it" then they started to slow down to one big white screen and my heart rate was back to normal.

2. I saw an image as if I was sitting on a red bike and looking down at the front wheel, again I laughed, the wheel wasn't even inside the fork it was to the left. I have a black Trek this was a red Scott, My dreams are usually much more real and not as blatant craziness.

3. Again images scrolling this time in a single line and moving to the left, and not fast...none of them were anything I ever saw before...people and places like photographs..heart rate went up again, and photos sped up and then again it fizzled out.

4. Then I see a wheel like on the price is right and it has movies playing on each screen of the wheel. This was a bit more strange. I willed it to spin so I could see all of the movies. These were of familiar dream scenes. The wheel stopped on a very good looking DC I met at a baseball game about a month ago. He is about 35-40 with light brown hair and beautiful blue eyes. All of these were silent but he was smiling at me and looking right at me. Prior Dream: I was at a baseball game and I was upset about something so I was crying. I could feel the heartbreak but I don't know what it was for, when I sat down next to a guy (same as above) I looked over at him and he looked right into my eyes as if we had known each other forever, and he reached over and wiped my tears from my eyes. I could feel the energy and emotion was extremely powerful. We spent the night walking around the town and I was trying really hard to see how far I could get it go. He kissed me on the lips and flew into the air....hmmm he can LD also....cool.. I chased him but he was much faster than I was and was and he was showing off. I never found him...darn it! I felt like we shared a really good moment.

(Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was boarding a pirate-like ship in Miami. Daniela had picked me up at the airport and we hooked up on the way to the port. I was Captain of the ship. The tripulation included Tyrion and Jaime Lanister, and my miami friends too. There was a curse though, I had to keep my hands covered at all times or the demon would wake up and come for us. The demon was kinda like Samara from the Ring, although it occasionally changed into a monster. It was sleeping in one of the cabins, and we tried to stay away from it. At one point someone gave me a towel, but it was too small, and the demon woke up and started walking towards us, Samara style.





Eventually the curse broke and the girl stood up, she was a shy, pretty girl. We are arrived at a port and I told Alejandro I wanted to sleep with Dani. I then realized Dani's sister had heard me. At that point, my gf shows up and I then realized I couldn't sleep with Dani, it would be wrong. I helped my gf get off the boat.

This was a longer dream but I didn't write about it upon waking up. Although it sounds like a bit of a nightmare, I wasn't really too scared at any point. I love sea and pirate-related things, so just the fact that I was captain of a pirate ship I think made up for the whole being haunted by a demon thing.
In dreams I often have partial waking-memory, in this case I had totally forgotten I had a gf until she showed up. I used to feel guilty about this upon waking up, but then, there are dreams in which I don't even remember who I am IWL, so I think it is understandable.

I went to sleep at about 4am. Emi came to sleep home with Eri and they talked to about that hour. Im writing a day later, so... i don't remember very well the dreams. I will highlight what i remember well. The other things are things i wrote in my DJ.

- I dream being in a forest or somewhere spatious (meaning no buildings. Also could have been a town). I was with my father and (my deceased (2 years)) dog in a car. My father went there to leave the dog free. He said to me that that was the idea. [Interpretation: why to let him free? He was bothersome, but we wouldn't let him free for that, never. Once my father let go a dog because it had bited my sister when she was little. But even then he regreted it. However the reason why we let him go (i didn't know until the last moment) was because an animal should be free. Yesterday when i was walking i saw some caged birds and thought about this. I remember that i had a bird, and my sister one day dropped the cage and he was free. I was upset because it was given to me as a gift, but at the same time i was happy because he was free. That kind of thought i had when my father said to me in this dream he wanted to set free the dog. Also he not only gives freedom to the dog, but also to himself. (The main drawback would be where he would get food from... but i thought he would learn, and he would feel good not to feel imprisioned. Probably not at first, but after some time yes.)] My father was wearing the same tshirt i was wearing that day. I didn't interpret that as dream sign, so it remained as non-lucid.

I got up went to bathroom, and went back to bed. Then woke up at 12:

I was on a building and went outside to the streets. There was like a revolution going on. I was walking and my younger sister walked besides me. Then i saw Mike, the librarian, he wanted to vaccinate me. He was acting like ... if he was vaccinated and goodbye mike and welcome alien or something like that (like one would see in a movie). So he was about to stitch me with the syringe but i said not a chance in earth. I grabbed his arm and hand and pointed the syringe to his other hand. Then it made contact with his skin and i pressed down. I didn't feel good doing that, or having that reaction (it's like killing someone for defending oneself. One could react like that, but it probably won't feel emotionally good afterwards. The same with this case). But even though i did that i knew i wasn't going to escape because there were so many people already vaccinated, and they would try to vaccinate others, and these others were few (the only chance would be to escape, flying or something like that, or...). I saw my grandmother right next to mike, and while i was doing that she stitched me with a syringe and said to Mike "it's done". (Why people do that? I thought. They think they do something good while they are not.) Anyways i wasn't vaxxinated, just a stitch with the syringe, which even that would do. So i kept walking with them, and i explained my sister that i didn't want to because the vaccines have blood, poison and things like that. Then i focused on myself, that i would have to be aware of the whole process, since i could transform or whatever but still be in charge. However i didn't feel any changes, and i thought that there was a probability for me to be immune.

I was in bed sleeping with my eyes closed when I started hearing some voices. I tried to get up and found it was difficult to move. Still not seeing anything, I felt my best bet of getting out of bed was to sink. After a few seconds of trying, I was able to sink through my bed. I was now in a void. I saw a wall with some hieroglyphics on it then my vision went out again. I could hear the clanking of some sort of chain lift. My vision came back and I saw I was in a narrow hallway of a rundown industrial looking building. I saw a door and slowly phased though it. I was now in a small restroom. I looked in a mirror and saw myself. I was more short and stocky, had oversized eyes and a brown afro. I went back into the hallway and tried to summon a dolphin before I woke up.

Medium LD 5.30-7.50am
I am in bed with AB. There is some snuggling and cuddling. Then I get up and try to use a computer. That doesn't work very well. I move the screen around to see it better. There are plants next to the bed and loose earth. I try to stamp some of the earth into place. Outside in the hallway are voices - AB talking to father.

Then playing chase with an unknown person. We reach the back door. This house has the layout of my parent's home. It is dark outside. They run out into the darkness. I do not want to stumble around in the darkness trying to find them and instead go back upstairs. Upon reaching the attic room - my childhood bedroom - I become lucid. RC by looking at left hand. First finger lopped off halfway up. Cool.

I phase through window. It is light outside, daytime. The village is made up of a few sparse detached houses. I do some flying and then perch on a fence. Groups of people wandering around the village. Large group heading off down road. See them transform into two huge dire wolves.

Decide to haunt a suitable looking gothic looking house. I go inside and become mostly invisible and ethereal looking. I change my appearance to be scary - dead rotting face and sunken dark eyes. Then I lure the people outside into the house.

I wait until they are in the first room then laugh evilly to freak then out. They see me, scream and run outside. I leave the house chuckling wondering what to do next and then wake.

Morning of October 23, 2016. Sunday.



In my dream, I am only about twelve years old. I had missed my school bus and I decide that I will walk to school (regardless of the fact that it would take far too long in reality). There is no memory of my current conscious self identity.

On my way, I go through what I consider to be a part of the supposed normal school bus route but in actuality it is through a few unfamiliar areas. In one area, there are about four features (not close together) that look like oversized birdhouses that seem to be for some sort of ritualistic purpose or perhaps are implied to be small wayside shrines. There is a sense of nonthreatening eeriness to the region. The birdhouses’ entrances look like tree silhouettes, which adds to the eeriness. I remain uncertain of whether or not I have to acknowledge these seemingly important artifacts before moving on, but I decide to keep walking.

The last part of my journey involves walking through a field of grass that is up to my knees. However, off to my left, is a long perimeter of higher grass (about six feet high) and weeds and thin shrubs. An unrealistic number of insects (not venomous) continue to swarm out over me and the rest of the area, making a buzzing sound. Although this is a somewhat difficult situation in that so many flying insects are slowing my progress towards an area where other students are standing around near the school, I am not annoyed. In fact, I am focused on the extreme vividness and seeming beauty of the area as I walk along, becoming lucid in the final moments, though letting my dream fade.

---

The main reason for this dream was from looking at a number of school bus dreams from the 1970s yesterday, so much of my residual thoughts were focused on that and were eventually rendered into the typical autosymbolic journey that leads back into consciousness, waking life, and the conscious self identity. The birdhouse-like structures represent the usual flight symbol factor from autosymbolism relating to vestibular system dynamics that occurs in over twenty percent of my dreams (averaging out to about two dreams per normal sleeping period), and subliminal associations with our own bedroom and being home (rather than being out walking around as my illusory dream implies). The eerie tree silhouettes in place of the birdhouse doors is a subliminal association with my physical body not moving in sleep, with the whole birdhouse-like feature with a vague subliminal anticipation of the common hypnopompic kick or waking start. I also tend to dream about long grass when I am subliminally aware of the bed sheet pulling on my legs more than usual. The buzzing insects at the end were autosymbolic for the subliminal perception of increased neural activity, which also triggers certain types of lucidity as here. This dream is similar to a number of other dreams since childhood, including “Wayside Shrine” from January 1, 2002.

On an alien spaceship
I'm watching a movie in which a general is addressing his men. The general and his men are all aliens which just look like men who have been painted with a mix of silver and gold metallic paint. I recognize that the general is a famous actor, but I can't remember who he is or what else he's been in. For a famous actor, I'm surprised at how "ordinary" he looks - he's got a rather blocky face and some pretty bad buck teeth. In a way, I'm kind of glad - Hollywood tends to put forward people who are "too perfect." The general is telling his troops that he's been working on making a movie, and that it's almost done, but that higher-ups in his command have demanded that he add a new character, "Hiss," before the film ships. He lets people know that they're going to have a rare chance to watch filming happen and possibly even be involved in the process.

Now I'm looking at a screen of some sort. The general starts distinguishing between groups of reptilian soldiers based on whether or not they're married and whether or not they've helped a female bear eggs. The screen is split into columns, and a pattern of tiny lizard footprints appears in the relevant column as he speaks of each group and their eggs. * Now I'm walking through the spaceship. I pause and look into an open doorway on my right and see a small, poorly lit room. Now I have the feeling that the general has his eye on me and is toying with me. I'm walking down a very bare hallway, and I feel that something is wrong. I turn around and find a closed door right behind me where a moment ago there was only empty hallway. I turn back around to find that the end of the hallway is now just a few feet away. I look at the wall to my right and find that, while it was bare a moment ago, it now has an unmarked door. I decide to try using diffuse vision (from the dream yoga class) to watch both ends of the hallway at the same time. I look straight at the wall and let my vision unfocus slightly, and I find I'm able to watch the wall, the door, and the end of the hallway. After a few moments, I can see the hallway actually redrawing itself. When it's done, the single door has been replaced by a pair of doors for men's and women's bathrooms. I briefly consider going into the women's but decide to go into the men's instead.

Now I'm in the men's bathroom. A white tiled hallway extends away in front of me, eventually opening out into the bathroom proper. Halfway down the hallway I see a very petite woman standing across from a large wall-mounted mirror. She greets me and lets me know that, by entering this room, I've lost. She asks me to look at the floor, at the pattern of white and grey tiles, and notes that every single white tile is a bad end. I realize that I'm dreaming. I say something about her dog, and it lies down and rolls onto its side. I don't like her, so I tell her to turn around and put her hands on the wall. To my surprise, she immediately complies.* Now I'm talking to the guy who's responsible for building traps on the ship.


Fragment: I've got an overhead view of small pools of water connected by narrow streams of water, laid out in a kind of grid.

Nap: 1445-1615

Playing on a trampoline
I'm on a large rectangular-ish trampoline with my eldest son and eldest daughter. At first, I jump near them; but when my daughter tries to hold me down, I scold her, saying it's dangerous to do that, then start jumping away from them, trying to keep them from getting me. There's enough space on this trampoline that I bet I can do it indefinitely, so I'll need to be careful to give them enough success that they don't get frustrated.


Japanese infiltration
I'm in Japan, getting ready to board a bus. It's large and black, and it has white writing on the side. The driver is standing to the left of the steps, greeting passengers as they get on. I have an armful of stuff, and I've got some kind of identity/payment card in my right hand. As it comes to my turn to board, I remember my card and free my hand a bit from my bundle, kind of waving the card at the driver; then I realize it might not actually be what I need, so I try to ask him how I'm supposed to pay for the trip. He doesn't understand my question and answers something completely different. I try asking my question another way, and he says that the steps will turn into a slippery ramp if someone tries to board who shouldn't be there. I'm starting to get a bit flustered, and I ask him how the bus knows if someone belongs or not. At this point, a woman who's standing nearby starts laughing and tells the driver I must be a tourist who doesn't know that this is a reserved bus. I'm annoyed and embarrassed, but I go over to talk to her since she seems to know knows what's going on and is fluent in English.

Now I've been talking with her for a while, but we're now standing on some kind of steps in the corner of a huge room. I thank her for her help and her advice and apologize for having to excuse myself. I'm doing some kind of infiltration, and she's gotten me inside, but there s more to do. Now I'm flying out of a huge indoor tunnel, and pursuit is close behind. Now I'm struggling along a walkway running on the outside of a large missile that's in flight.


Fragments:
I'm in a cozy room filled with small rectangular tables. Something about Emily and her family.

I'm outside on a grassy field - something is worrying me.
