This retaurant was filled to the ceiling. If you wanted to get something from the salad bar you would have to stand for quite a while but eventually I could take some soup and other side dishes. What was by far more interesting were the conversations people had. A guy looking like some kind of servant was eagerly discussing with a lady in a fulminant dress how somebody might be in danger. He didn't try to keep it secret and even I could hear it although I was much further in the endless row of people wanting their side dishes. Still, nobody cared but me.

I went outside instead of eating as this story about someone being in danger got me hooked up. Who and how in a normal restaurant like this? There was nothing dangerous outside either. The moon light coloured the wide hills, lawns and trees in blue. This place was really in the nowhere without anything nearby. So I decided to go inside again when the servant guy ran the same way being out of breath. Of course I followed him at the same speed and inside he shouted again "Milady is in danger, she is in danger!".

Suddenly I noticed something very... abnormal. When I looked down on the floor I saw a red outline moving around. No, it was not drawn on the floor. It had the shape of a human and was more like vision. I was seeing the girl he was talking about through the floor! Judging by the shape alone she had to quite young, barely a teenager. It was this moment when the servant and I looked to a unsuspecting door and we both felt the same obviously. He sprinted ahead of me and went through the door. I lost sight of him but took the same way.

The stairs behind the door led into a basement. Some kids were playing a really weird game here. Who got caught became a slave and they had to move him step by step to their camp while the other team tried to free them. A little boy was the slave right now and was totally not happy with it. He moved with a form of disgust. Some people wore white robes which made them look like priests. No idea if this was made to distinguish teams.

Anyway, I should move on. When opening another door the atmosphere changed out of nowhere. The place behind the door was devoid of people and had an evil aura around it. It was a dungeon.
"Wait! A dungeon? This concept only exists in my dreams." I reached a level of lucidty which took away the fear caused by the evil aura and turned everything into an exciting adventure. With determination I walked into the dungeon and looked around. Small yellow-orange lights created a moody atomsphere and flags and pictures hang on the walls. You could mistake it for a normal hallway if it hadn't that strange aura.
With all those decorative plants, benches and other stuff it looked a bit like the restaurant above me. So I started to roam through the corridors trying to find the girl, the servant and the source of danger. I soon noticed that this place was huge. One corridor led into to others and behind a corner the corridors went on. Sometimes there was a room with tables, chairs and sofas inside but I didn't trust them too much.

Suddenly I had a vision while walking. Two women were caught in a white room with nothing but a steel door stealing their freedom inside. You could see them through a glass plane and the surroundings were the same as the dungeon. One in a white dress told her to use the power inside of her to break through the door and disappeared like a ghost after saying "It is up to you. I can't help you any further.".
And then.... I WAS IN THE ROOM!
Seems like I walked into a teleportation trap, how unconvenient and diabolic. Well, at least I got a tip though. I put my finger tips on my forehead to concentrate my energy and stretched out the other arm towards the door. I violently struck the door with telekinetic force, a power the room seems to give you. I saw a fiery, green bar going down in my field of vision. That was obviously my dream energy. It got drained quite a lot by performing so many telekinetic waves but the door was already completely deformated and with a single blow it gave in.

I ran to the end of the hallway and it led into only one room that was different from the others starting with the different furniture. It looked like a bar with a billiards table on one corner. Most surprising was the bald guy with glasses sitting on a chair while smoking though. At first I thought he was my enemy but he took no action to hurt me and just had a "I expected you" look on his face. No time to have a talk though. The billards cues came to live and attacked me by trying to sting me. They were rather weak creatures though. I gave them fast punches and kicks while evading them and they flew across the room. Once they hit the wall with a loud noise the magic inside of them vanished and they became normal cues.

Was that the danger? No. When turning around I see one elderly man with a totally insane look on his face and a fairly massive one with glasses similar to the smoking man in the chair. They had weapons good enough to hurt me. Well, not really as I was dreaming after all but you get what I mean. One had two single nunchaku sticks with sharp hooks at one end and the other one had chained up like five of them to create a deadly weapon out of them. The smoking man slowly stood up with his on chained nunchakus. Well, I would like to have a weapon, too to be honest. When looking around I spotted some nunchaku sticks on the billard table.
The hooks of them were not that sharp or pointy but it was good enough for now. It was the smoking man and me against the Nunchaku brothers.

I took care of the crazy one and he was quite a hard opponent. He blocked my strikes and tried to get through my defense but he failed as well. At some point I understood a bit how I could get him down. I aimed for his head with the sticks and he made a funny "Ayyyy" sound when I hit him. He could take quite a few hits. Inbetween I felt like everything was fading a bit. "Hey, a bit more awareness and control if possible, yeah?"
The colors went brighter and the battle raged on. When fighting and landing more hits I suddenly noticed that one of the nunchakus was missing. I looked to the massive nunchaku brother and he was chaining my stick to make an even better weapon. NOOOO!! I tried to stop him but he resisted well. It was no use. Luckily, my partner landed a good hit and he was obviously realizing now that he had no real chance against us after all. Af ter a few more hits the crazy brother walked backwards as well. They could not fight anymore and were defeated. An expression of disbelieve was on their faces.

Hmmm, I think I am going to take thoes nunchakus as loot. They might become helpful if I modify them a bit.

so another Lucid Dream, number 5 now! I seem to be thats 3 iv had since joining this site and focusing on dream recall.
In last nights dream i remember the moment i became consciouse, i was in the pitch black, complete darkness when i noticed that i was running down a street with no lighting at all, even though i was still consciouse of my physical body laying in bed in RL i suddenly felt a strange feeling of terror, i realised i was running from "Something" so i decided to turn around and check if i was at all running away from anything....i was confronted by a large dog that was running towards me very fast and very aggressively, the fear became so intense as the dog started to approach me that i screamed at myself to "Wake up, Wake up NOW!!", and i did instantly..

Now i have been trying to rewmember not to move to much upon having a false awakening, as i read somewhere that it helps in being able to re-enter the dream, so i tried not to move and within a few seconds it felt like something had grabbed hold of both of my feet and was spinning me around my room in complete darkness (I can even remember being able to just feel the wall with my fingers as i was spun around).
Within what felt like maybe 10 seconds i was dreaming again, although at that momnent i didn't realise it. I was laying on my bed in the darkness and i thought briefly that i was still awake, so i decided to do a quick reality check and stood up and opened the door to my room!
I instantly realised at that moment, that i was dreaming as the space behind the door was nothing like i expected it to be....A female appeared who seemed to have been waiting for me, we started speaking and i realised my dream was starting to fade so i instantly tried finding my dream sign that i successfully used in the lucid dream i had, had previously (Looking at my reflection), but this time it didn't appear to work and i awoke once again!!

After re-entering for the second time i started off right where id left of a few minutes before, but this time i was in darkness and couldn't find a light switch, after a few attempts i managed to create light my verbally demanding it whilst clapping my hands, it seemed that last night that was the key to staying lucid for longer, although my Dream Recall after that point is non existant.

I feel like im still experimenting with differant techniques and hopefully the more i have them, the easier things will get.

I've been having issues recalling my dreams lately, probably due to my irregular sleep time. I'm going to try to recall something tomorrow.

It was my first night home for the Christmas break. I wish I could remember this dream better, as it seemed to be fairly eventful and reached new areas of strangeness. I think there is a contest having to do with a train or a railroad station or something of the like. It may be old western times. There are many people I know and celebrities participating in this contest. It seems that the participants are being eliminated quickly, but there is one of them who has yet to compete, and who I have great faith in. This of course is Sting, my favorite song writer. IRL, I read his memoir “Broken Music” over the summer. It influenced me greatly, and I have this connection to him. That connection was evident in the dream; though I’m not sure he acknowledged it. I cannot remember the outcome of this contest. But there are two other instances of this dream that I remember. One of them is me, in a hotel room, high above the ground, in a bright white room. I look out at the balcony. I think there is an ocean. That’s all I can really remember. The other is me receiving fellatio from this brunette girl who bears a resemblance to someone I met briefly about a year ago. Though all goes as it should, several times I think, it is strangely dissatisfying. I remember feeling rather pleased with the state of affairs, as was she, but I do not think I felt anything orgasmic or really significant, as I normally would in this situation. I can remember so clearly the pictures from these dreams, which only makes me long to remember the circumstances and sequences of events.

Cinema
I'm in the cinema in Amsterdam, together with my friend Alif and maybe some others. Alif has just recently moved to the Netherlands. My friend San is working as an employee at this particular cinema and perhaps Erik as well. We're standing by the ticketing machine, deciding on which movie to go to. We're still doubting between the latest Bond and Fantastic Beasts. San already wants to buy tickets for Bond, but I tell him to wait up for a moment. I ask Alif what she wants. I figure she may not like Bond. She's not wearing her hijab like normally. My reasoning is that in the Netherlands she doesn't feel like doing so. Her face looks different without it and her hair has been put up in a crazy hairstyle. I'm looking through the schedule, which only goes until 7pm. For some reason, everything after 7pm is regarded as the next day, so we need to load the schedule again. I ask San, or perhaps a different employee, for his paper version of the schedule, which is quicker. I think, though I'm not sure, that we eventually decide upon Bond. Not that we actually go there?

I'm walking around outside with Alif. We're on the steps of a building now. I get a call through Messenger. It's my cousin, whom I haven't spoken to in many years. It's a very short conversation, as he asks me for drugs. I hang up. I tell Alif what happened.

Watching
I'm watching from a first person view. What I assume to be a plane is flying through the clouds, leaving little sight. It flies just above a house. That was close! Shouldn't it be pulling up? It continues at the same altitude, avoiding another 1 or 2 houses. It turns out that what I'm watching is a guy who is lucid dreaming for the first time. He's enjoying it. Somehow he's made a connection to the waking world and he's telling a woman (his mom?) about it.

Sharing
I'm having a conversation with a woman. We're going to try to share a lucid dream and we're deciding on a location. First she thinks of Rome. Cool city, but I've never been there. Except for in Assassin's Creed that is. I would only know how to imagine the Colosseum. How about Paris though? I'm much more familiar with that city.

The following was--unfortunately but interestingly--a non-lucid dream.

I'm talking to my brother [who is also interested in LD in real life; we recently chatted about it]. I excitedly tell him an idea for something to do in a lucid dream: "Wouldn't it be cool to travel back to the time of Christ and talk to the scribes and Pharisees at the temple in Jerusalem!"

sick

A vague dream about exams.

I am in a dream where I am underwater, and black snakes attempt to bite me. They are poisonous. I however have a 'hose' which they swim away from.

In dream i have made overpayment of 10,000 which is weird as when I woke up on news first item was talking about 10,000.

I had a dc was asking me to fly them up to a high up level of a hotel. They know that I can change the dream and want my help. I fly them up and into the hotel, it has lots of open balconies.
Inside we go to the restaurant and I change the restaurant into more of a american style dinner inside the hotel. They are serving burgers but we want veggie ones so they change before my eyes to crumb coated veggie ones, semi lucid I woke up.

On a very hot small beach it is swelting and we are listening to a guy on a camel. I am so thirsty but there is no fresh water. I say f**k this and a woman with a kid there agrees it is a total rip off . We are expected to hang out here for 4 hours and we paid for this, were off. We head up off the beach and into what seems like the corridors of an airport with lots of glass. Though we were supposed to be escaping by boat.

Hazy dream about vampires. That's all I know.

IM STRUGGLIN. I should not have tried to set lucid dreaming goals during finals week...

Missed yesterday but now I'm back.

Dream
Shoot man I don't even know what was going on in this dream. Alright, so I'm in this odd underground area that sort of feels like a gaming map, and a long distance away I can see this teenage boy on the enemy team with a gun, aiming at something else. I'm behind cover (kinda looking through a window at him below), and I've got a gun too (some kind of modern, silver handgun) but I'm not completely sure I know how to use it.

Still, I decide to do my best: I leave cover and stand, holding the gun carefully with both hands at arm's length, aim down the sight, and start popping off shots at the teenage kid. The first few miss, but each time I'm correcting my aim a little, and the two-hand grip is helping me not get thrown off too badly by the recoil. The kid is starting to scramble as he realizes he's being shot at, when one of my shots hits him dead in the forehead and he goes down (with some gore, icky). I don't feel too bad about "killing" a teenager... it feels like a multiplayer shooter, except that I'm seeing the person and their character rolled into one.

I'm just proud of that moment, because I was being so careful and methodical rather than autopiloting. Progress!

Other parts of the dream (or a different dream) featured me inducing multiple pregnancies (and, a few days later, abortions) in myself because my sister wanted me to (and was doing the same thing, I think). Somehow it helped her out. I kept doing this until the more rational part of my brain caught up and I became legitimately concerned that the abortion pill wouldn't "work" somehow, and I'd be stuck with a pregnancy... and besides that, I wasn't sure how I felt about ending a potential human life, even if it was still only at the "potential" stage. Some part of me was wondering what color eyes and what kind of personality would've been represented by the exact combination of genes that I kept discarding (and combining more, and discarding).

Today's dreamsign is: knowing that I can shoot a kid without consequences (but I thought it was because I was in a game rather than a dream hmmmmmmmm ... I should do reality checks while gaming I think, maybe every time I do something that would normally have a consequence if it were real life).

At Frankie's,
Fragments,

Fish coming out of the plants around me as I walk they seem to be coming from anywhere I look - they are alive ...it's a bit weird ~ I want to run but I realise I am dreaming! I stop and allow the fish to land on my hand one by one as if effortlessly manifesting from thin air. I look at them closely - they are mostly black and flat but alive.

"I am dreaming" breath and slow down ✨
I ask my friend what this means what it symbolises - He said it means I must take these abundant fish everywhere I go, give and share them with everyone -" like a gift "I thought and this made me happy - but then he explained that by giving everyone the fish they would then be connected back here to him and that was important. I felt deep inside that there was something not right about this this ...controle ...I wanted to think nice thoughts about it and in giving the fish generously " how nice etc" 🌈but I just couldn't 😬I felt it was a bit of a con and wander if I should be involved in this giving of fish so that this control I could be had...I am puzzled and saddened as I wake.

We are in a big complex - G has a major role to play I seem to be of value and am doing my best yet I am keeping myself in the back ground. I become aware there are some teachings on - being given- I feel I should be there ...but wander why I am not...I see there are some who realy want to go and I could easily go but I am not...I am told its on Tatagatagarba. I finally go in, late, and slip into a seat anf put headphones on. It's wonderfully loud music and I love it - I start dancing and moving around with delight - people think I am a little mad.
I am jumping around on a mooving train I can't find G and shout if anyone saw him...no ...the train is picking up speed going passed the platform now ...I can't be sure G is on the train ...shall I jump off and wait or stay on....I stay on...the train is moving too fast - I am away and hope G is with me🌺

Created Wednesday 07 December 2016

Numerous dreams identified, including three DILDs, though I can't recall much of the non-LDs.

Scrap Group 1
Walking around my neighborhood. I start thinking of dream signs. This includes being back in highschool and doing poorly in a science class.

Dream 1 - TOTM Advanced Task I - Take 1

False awakening in the master bedroom. After lingering thoughts on previous dreams, I realized the dream state. Made a breath test to confirm as much, which was inconclusive. So, I fell off, and slowly floated down to the floor. That'll do it.

Then, I began "powering up", yelling as I did. There was no clear sign this was working. In fact, I felt I was getting weaker the longer I tried, so I stopped.

Remembered the spinning TOTM. I hovered, and tried spinning in place, but this was likewise exhausting. Within seconds, I was out of breath, and lost grasp of the dream.

Scrap Group 2
More false awakenings in the same location.

Dream 2 - TOTM Advanced Task I - Take 2

False awakening in my bedroom. I stand near the mirror, and try taking my sleeping mask off, only to have it magically slide back on. Clearly, I was dreaming. Still couldn't remove the mask though, so I ignored it.

Before continuing, I rubbed my hands for 10 seconds. Then, I tried that TOTM again. As before, I strained myself trying to spin in place. Thus, I ignored physical movement in favor of willing myself to do as much, yielding much better results.

Cut. I'm flying in a night sky. Dire storm clouds were immediately below me, spinning steadily into a fledgeling tornado. This all felt sorta damp and stuffy. I fall intentionally. Just then, the clouds formed into a creepy robot face. Kinda startling, but I dove in anyway.

Another warp. Projected holographically ahead of me was an unlit plane, the floors formed of dim gridlines. Suddenly, demonic shadows appear. Only their glowing yellow eyes were clearly visible. I had control of a small robot, and commanded it to off to a corner. Tried brightening the place up for a better look, but didn't manage that. Tried brightening the place up for a better look, but didn't manage that.

By then, I noticed my left eye was fast shut. In my attempts to wrench it open, I feel myself in bed, and awaken soon afterwards.

Scrap Group 3

False awakening. Walk down to the living room, where dad and Carl lingered around. Then, they announce finding a bat and hawk in the backyard. That sounded exceedingly unlikely. I realized the dream state, but wake up soon afterwards.

False awakening in bed. An unknown person slid their hand over my face, hampering my breathing. I realized the state, and tried imagining who would be responsible. The dream simply collapses soon afterwards.

Here & Now worked again. The only hard part is calming down my mind to the point of stillness and awareness in the moment. Then, it is being patient with the pain of doing nothing, thinking nothing; not even about what I want to do in the lucid dream. Eventually, I feel the transition and know I am dream when I can freely move around as if I am on a rotisserie. The next hard part is then attempting to get visuals going which takes a bit of finesse and in-dream-visualization. I can feel my way around my room, however.


The next challenge is stabilizing the dream world because in all three attempts I have woken up, and immediately been pulled back into a non-lucid dream because I did not reset my mind into a quiet, clear, calm, present awareness. It honestly takes patience and discipline.

+ in the hills observing a public utility fence it's boarded up I see the sheets of plywood covering the openings and observe the pattern of nails: some have lots of little nails along the top and bottom tightly spaced, I think "wow they really don't want anybody getting in there." I think about how hard it would be to pry those boards off of there. some boards are nailed only along the vertical middle with larger nails with easier to see shiny heads. Some areas have the boards pulled aside I think the vandals/kids did this, and I want to look inside to see the (barrels?) hidden by the boards but don't. To the right I see that some sections of the fence have had their (glass now?) sections removed by neighborhood kids using those openings in that section of the fence as a shortcut across the fence.

+ sitting on the ground on short grass, I look across the street to my right and "recognize" [FALSE] the place as a rehersal/concert location that my orchestra has used many times before, I recognize features of the place and realize I'm seeing them from a different perspective. Guy walks up and talks about my instrument. I'm playing (another guy's?) instrument there's a bad/leaky key and I'm helping him troubleshoot it. High F to E seems bad so it must be right G key. I hold a note and he pushes things around and we eventually determine it is a faulty ring key on the b-hole [FALSE/WRONG]. I'm talking about my ancient <mouthpiece> and how it's very old (decades) and how it will probably fail eventually, I look inside and there's some nasty decay? Someone asks what a "R"-tool is for and I say thinning out the tube but you have to be careful not to get it too thin.

+ dream of attacking with a pew pew blaster pistol sci-fi show actors it's not hard to beat them since they're just actors after all. Something about an alien invasion they steal a girl by smearing knock-out gas paste under her nose. I'm telling my boys about the alien invasion and how we have to manage their numbers?

+ walking in park, head back to the entrance which is steep and rocky, there is a line of color difference in the little cliff there and I think this comes from people traditionally peeing on the rocks in this location. To get out you'll have to get a running start up a bumpy and steep short section but I think I can make it.

+ LUCIDD 224 LD#224 I'm on my CH deck heading towards the short steps down to the back garden when I get lucid. I stop and immediately think of stabilizing and TOTM. I turn back on to the deck, rub my hands together looking around and see the black slat railing in front of me at the kitchen corner which fades, the whole scene is fading to black. Dang. I know the house is a step to my right so I put up my hands and walk to the right expecting to meet the house and I do. I keep my hands on the wall of the house until I start getting some visual detail back, it's still dark. I see mom emerge from the back porch door on to the deck, she ignores me and turns down the steps into the garden, I follow her saying "Hey Mom, what's up!?" It is now bright daylight, almost cartoonishly bright. She keeps heading up the steps towards the driveway, and eventually says "I'm getting a bag [from the street]." I don't follow, I look up and see my dad's on the driveway and notice that it's an accurate rendering of his face in his about mid-50s. There are some large trucks on the street (the neighbors are finally moving?). I sit down on a patch of flat concrete and decide to write down the TOTMs as this will help me remember them. I wonder if I can write anything at all in the concrete. I scratch a "1" with my fingernail and I see it clearly, but no tasks come to memory and
the dream fades.

continue? I'm thinking about the flower pot of roses (which I bought for wife IWL) and observing how the roots have grown and broken through the inner layer of the ceramic pot.
