    1. #216 - Are you my dream guide?

      by , 03-24-2016 at 11:33 PM (The Oneironaut's Odyssey)
      Another lucid there was more to the dream prior to getting lucid but there wasn't much. Last night I meditated for 10 minutes and had a more realization about how being too tired before going to sleep can reduce the chances of me getting lucid. So when I stay up for another 20 minutes and then feel really tired and 'ready' to sleep, I find it harder to dream journal or wake up during the night for LD practices. I decided that this probably affected how tired I am when I do my WBTB, and that I should extend my WBTB's. During my WBTB this morning I did the usual toilet run and mirror RC and then came back to bed and started reading my book. The following lucid was actually 1 of my best in terms of stability and control, while also being able to properly remember dream tasks.

      Dream
      I'm walking home from the village, I've already passed the school and I'm pretty close. The road is the usual unlaned p.o.s. that it is, with the boughs of manuka trees arching overhead forming a sort of tree cathedral. It's quite a sunny day, there isn't much going on. I start realizing that this is a dream, I decide to stabilize myself and feel the sensation of touch. Being able to feel my dream body so clearly tethers me there and stabilizes, but I notice that the world around me darkens. Fuzz. I need it to be light! What makes things light? Fire!
      I start focusing on creating fire with my mind, but it's weird.. This is one of those dreams where the world is down-to-earth and things like flying are difficult. I point the palms of my hands at each other and will there to be a spark of fire, but there's nothing..
      A blanket of darkness covers everything now, but I spot a couple street lights in the background of the dream. I have a certain understanding that if I can position my hands looking up
      at the light then I can trick the dream into thinking it's a fire spark. Doing this the palms of my hands suddenly have a ball of fire growing between them. I lift it up and throw it onto the tree above, it slowly spreads and the world around me begins to brighten with the flickering tongues of flame.
      The dream stabilizes once more, I focus on my body now and maintain the sense in the back of my mind so I don't wake up. It's properly night time now and I decide on doing the TotM
      "I'm ready for my dream guide!" I shout out to the world, I start heading back down the road towards the village.
      "I'm ready for my dream guide!" I continue to hail, above the power lines crossing the street I spot a flying batlike demon. Blagh, no thanks. I keep moving on until I see the group of people that I had seen earlier on in the dream (before I got lucid I passed them on my way home). I spot a very pretty blonde, I approach her and say "are you my dream guide?"
      "no" she says, "But would you like to come with me?" a coquettish smile on her face. For a moment I feel the full of caveman mode, but say "no thanks" and leave. About 20 metres later I've passed the school and reached the end of the road, leading to the roundabout by the village. I spot another cute blonde (what's with me and blondes lately?) and think that she probably isn't my dream guide. Butttt... She's cute. I decide to go after her and ask anyway

      It was about here that I woke up.
    2. 2016-03-23 variety of scenes

      by , 03-24-2016 at 09:03 PM
      + view from above of sleazy guy, look down from the ledge he approaches and stands against the wall below the ledge and I think he's going to sexually molest another man, or perhaps just pee on the corner. The sleazy guy is holding a little kitten and showing it off to everyone. I'm then down on his level and he presents the kitten to me but now it is a bedraggled, scraggly & nasty looking rat. The guy wants me to take the rat and let it climb on me but I move away, I don't want that.

      + (f) NMcK got fired? He's complaining to me about the group that got laid off?

      + I'm with a fire-arms instructor. He's showing me a gun and talking about the safety. I'm relating my experience with a fully automatic weapon, "how I held down the trigger and that thing just kept spewing bullets everywhere." Then I get out my favorite gun, a compact (kind of like an Uzi) automatic, I pop out the clip and look for a bullet in the chamber. I say how I like to use this as a rifle. The instructor is impressed with my gun.

      + son has shaved my cat and I see it completely furless (living room of childhood home) and think "ARGH, What did he do!?". Lying just outside my childhood bedroom door in the upstairs hallway petting my [current] cat, it really likes it and stretches out its front paws together luxuriously. Son S2 (and an old woman?) walk by in the hallway, he says "I'm tired, I didn't sleep all night"

      + nice naked puffy-nippled boobs on a hot girl sitting down in a crowd. I see her briefly from the front, then standing behind her looking down over her shoulder, then move through the crowd along the left edge positioning for another view of her and get another peek. I can't make forwards progress because there are too many people trying to walk in both directions in this "aisle." A young version of (my mother?) is up ahead on my left, there is a woman holding a food-service tray up over her head waiting for a clearing to walk back the opposite direction I'm walking in, and I stand aside to give her a land to come through.

    3. 2016-03-24 variety of short scenes recalled

      by , 03-24-2016 at 08:53 PM
      + walking by and into a basketball court that doubles as a racquetball court. Outside, I hear the loud sounds of strong shots in a racquetball game and the ball smacking into the walls (realistic echoing sound). A ball flies out of the court. I stand in the entrance to the court and am saying how this is a confusing basketball court that doubles as a RQB court.

      + roof top: I'm up on a roof top and there are stairways connecting the various levels. A guy has built this for himself. I'm walking around checking it out. There are some railing/observatories where you can look down on people at street level. It's evening/dusk/dark.

      + SG and I are trying to hook up but her relatives get in the way. She has naked pictures of herself that she wants to give me but we're prevented from meeting. Later on there is a naked shot of her v-jay that I see on a TV screen and I want to take a picture of that to keep. I'm thinking she could just give me her memory card and I could copy it. Her relatives are to the side in a small / very low-ceilinged place, almost like a box. Her female relative is naked apparently but is shy and pulls back. Her male relative is bleeding from shaving. The relatives look realistic. I look at SG again and she doens't look accurate, older and heavily made-up, like it's an actress playing her.

      + driving/biking on path in hills. My wife says to go "South West" [?]. There is a narrow bending path that I follow. Some other people get ahead of us. Biking down a bumpy (stairway?) I'm trying to avoid the front wheel of the bike getting stuck.

      + girls running for president (make out with one?), whom we knew from previous adult home area. They're stating their positions?

      + (f) cleaning the living room of former home

      + walking in some garden/house. There is a RGB LED light on the ground, with a larger rectangular incandescent-looking center which lights things around. I look at these lights for a bit. There is a (glass walled? [Dream Sign]) room where my wife is, she asks me "S-H-I-T?"

      Preface:
      Took Benadryl (OTC allergy meds) for an allergic reaction before sleeping. As a result I have not been able to recall my dreams very well at all.

      I dreams that I was about to shower. I had taken all of my clothes off. I looked down, and my breasts had shriveled up. They were lifeless and wrinkled. I was shocked and woke myself up. In real life my breasts are a full 36D cup, so needless to say, I panicked.
    5. Dream in short summary

      by , 03-24-2016 at 05:38 PM
      There were these animals that hated humans but I was writing a show about them in the woods. I had a yellow notebook with me and was running all around trying to act the scene with the animal monster kids.

      But before that happened I recall being in a scene where these kids were playing with snow and got in trouble because they were supposed to be cleaning it.

      Afterwards I was in a huge house where my brother's friend kept following me around. Until a animal parade appeared and he ended up showing them how to win a race at a parade.

      However, there were parts I was lucid in the beginning. It was kind of weird though. A lady was showing me how she broke a soda bottle with her long nails by mistake and that it was a huge problem for her.Something else happened before that but I forgot.

      Sitting in classroom with a large window on one side, it's dark and raining outside. Several other people sat in a circle with me and a teacher wandering around. The other people seem like children but also adults at the same time. I was asked to read, looked at the text read something but looked back and it had changed - the teacher pointed out the paragraph I should have read - so I made lots of excuses why I had read it wrong first time and felt a bit stupid.
      I looked out of the window and thought that the other students would be out in the rain doing sprt and I was quite jealous and wanted to be out there as well.

    7. [Non-Lucid] The Special For Today Is Live Turtle

      by , 03-24-2016 at 01:08 PM (SilverDreams' Reality Journal)
      24/3/16


      In this dream I was with an ex-friend from High School. We were on a bus, traveling around a town that resembled my home town. I had a little clear cased camera hung from my neck and I was using it to document our journey. The bus came to a stop suddenly, and I got off with my broken guitar. Apparently there was a place nearby that had a nice restaurant and a place to get my guitar repaired. For some reason everyone on the bus tried to stop me from leaving, almost begging me to stay on the bus. They tried this with my former friend too but I finally managed to convince him to come with, while recording what was taking place on my camera that was somehow now strapped to my bag and recording hands-free. He eventually did and got a terrible looking beat up guitar from someone on the bus as he got off. We walked through a courtyard and into a fancy restaurant with tables and chairs set up in rows, and took a seat. An Asian woman came up to us and asked if we were in a band, but then decided we were just reporters and left us alone. I think someone took our names and used a fake one for some reason, then someone came over to take a group photo. The lady returned and placed a snapping turtle at my feet, which bit both my big toes. I screamed and then began laughing, convinced making a scene about the turtle would get us kicked out and it was worth enduring. Haha.

      Fragment:

      I was with the two guys I used to hang out with in the mountains west of my city, smoking weed. It was night for the majority of the dream.

      by , 03-24-2016 at 12:17 PM (Snehk's Dreamlands)
      First dream

      I was in an abandoned airport close to New York. I've seen the city on the other side of water. I had my base set up in a ruined plane. The world was overtaken by plants, animals. In the morning I took my raft and swam to look for food and other resources. After whole day of exploring empty streets and ruined buildings I found nothing, except a group of other survivors.

      It was dark night. They took me to their base, where I met other members of my family and some pals. They set up their base in building similar to my house, though it was better furnished and prepared to hold more people inside. We gathered for a dinner and sat near a huge table. When they were giving the dishes, my aunt went out of the kitchen with a pot of soup. She said "Watch your grandma! She put her denture inside the pot with soup!" Sister replied to her "But our grandma has no denture!". Grandma smiled widely, exposing her only one tooth left. Then I was eating and listening to them talking about politics. I knew what they wanted to say just before they told it.

      Second dream - tower escape DILD

      Spring day, the sky was cloudless. With group of random DCs we took a raft and swam to other side of river, to huge warehouses. There were many machines, cranes and stockpiles set up in orderly manner. We decided to make the tallest and probably most valuable stockpile fall down. We just moved one can of paint and it started to fall. We ran away back to raft and swam to other side of river. Next I've seen from someones perspective that warehouse workers were talking about a revenge.

      Cloudy afternoon. I was back in frontyard of my house. I decided to look back at river and warehouses - the river was enormous, I couldn't even see the buildings. I could see a gigantic tower made of random stockpiled objects. I went closer to shore, which was just in front of my house. Warehousemen started to throw golf balls at me, and they had impressive strenght and accuarcy. I dodged most of the balls or blocked them, but some still managed to hit me. It was quite painful. I heard warehousemen shouting "This tower shall fall!".

      I decided to run away before it would crash me. When I was in my backyard, I took a look at the tower again. From an enormous stockpile it turned into a huge tower made of red brick, reaching for the clouds. I realized that it's a dream and flewn up to the roof of father's carpentry workshop. I looked at the tower and thought "You are not real. I can unmake you!" I looked behind me and at the tower again. There was a huge gap in the middle of it, but sides of the tower were left.

      I tried to do it again, but this time the tower was ruined and burning. Another try and it turned into a tower with chinese ornaments. I thought that if I can't remove it, I may just escape from it's fall. I turned towards neighbor's side and saw a huge mountain on the horizon. I thought that this must be a place safer than these roofs. I looked back at the tower, it hasn't changed. I looked at the mountain, and it was gone. There huge haystacks in it's place. Looking at my backyard I saw a big rock, I tried to alter it's height by previously used look method, but it was still too small.

      I decided to run climb up the neighbor's garage roof. While climbing i thought "Now I'll need a dramatic escape music... violin!" And the violin started to play. It wasn't a best performance, but wasn't terrible either. I climbed up garage's roof and jumped down to roofs of chicken coops. They were made of really weak materials. At first I thought that they'd crush under my feet, but then I thought "These are harder than steel, I can jump on them and they won't crush as well!"

      I ran to the end of chicken coops and jumped forward, landing on a roof of chinese temple. I climbed it up, and saw a spacious lake. I flewn to the other side of it and landed in a lakeside building. I turned back and watched as the tower was falling. It have fallen really fast. It have fallen into the lake... and nothing. I thought "What? Shouldn't there be a huge water wave after the tower have fallen down there?"

      The water started to bulge, raise and whirl, gathering in a huge wave. I gestured with my hands and the water started to lower and calm. Looking at the lake I noticed that it was covered with ice, and there was only a small hole made by the top of the tower. I pointed my index finger and the hole covered itself with ice.
      I walked the shore for a while and woke up.
    9. [Non-Lucid] Werewolf Guardian

      by , 03-24-2016 at 10:21 AM (SilverDreams' Reality Journal)
      24/3/16

      In this dream I am apparently a werewolf, for reasons unknown to me. I'm not even sure how I knew this since I never transformed or anything throughout the dream but I seemed positive that I was one while recalling this dream. I was walking beside the ocean with a girl, she was a few years younger than me and seemed kind, but a little naive. We had been walking a while and came upon a row of tents and my companion decided she needed to rest, and wanted to ask the people who had put up the tents if they'd mind if she slept in one. The sun was beginning to set over the ocean and I reluctantly agreed.

      "Do not tell them what I am, and stay safe, you don't know these people." I said, almost coldly. I didn't need or want to sleep, so I left.

      I think I was kind of a protector or guardian figure for the girl, but was also aloof and stern.

      dreamskip

      I was returning from somewhere. It was early morning, the stars were still out. I remember walking back onto the beachfront where the tents were, and overhearing loud music and talking from inside the tents.

      "I knew it. Teenagers." I said, not surprised but also feeling slightly angry, paternal instincts kicking in perhaps.

      I opened the flap on the the tent and noticed people smoking weed and drinking, and barged in to grab my companion and her bag. People seemed incredulous that I'd just walk in and "spoil their fun". I left with the girl and woke up soon after.
    10. Resulted In A Lesson

      by , 03-24-2016 at 07:47 AM
      I had a lucid dream and woke up a few minutes ago learning a lesson I somewhat forgot to remember.
      After I woke up my memory of the dream was lacking because they distracted my concentration in the dream. So Ill just write what I do recall.Oh and sorry for the poor way I wrote it. Its 2:46am now.

      I was on a bed that was supposed to be my room. It looked like my room but was different somewhat. Eye appeared and began talking to me while I lay on the bed. He was teasing me about him disappearing and appearing again I think. Than there was a moment when Dawn was present too and I was talking to him as well but than Dawn left.

      Than something happened that made Eye tease me more till it got annoying. I remember moving around my house and ending up in the bathroom where Eye had followed me and I thought maybe I didn't pay much attention. Next thing I know I walk upstairs and my family is talking about something. I lose my lucidity a bit but regain it once my dad jokes about Dawn and me.

      I also notice the scene is really black but has a sphere of light surrounding my family and the table. I know that the dream is slowly coming back together so I relax. Than after a bit I get up from the couch and go downstairs. I see a light coming from my older brother's room and hope to see Dawn and change my mind to go to see if Eye is around.

      When I enter the lights are on, the computer, the television and I notice the website on the computer is a forum with a live video of someone drawing a anime, almost chibi, purple haired girl. I see a pic of Dawn as the avatar too and find it kind of funny how its there. But thinking about how everything is on I want him to come.

      Suddenly I start calling when suddenly a group of characters, shadows with personality, dolls, etc, burst in and start surrounding. Pushing and pulling me as if they were a random tornado. I look at them than try not to look and pray as they play ruff with me and tell me stuff. I kept saying I believe in Jehovah because conviction helps and thinking about God is comforting. After messing with me the whole group flew/walked out of the room, some even laughed as they left, leaving me alone and shutting the door.

      I was like this....O- -O The lights were dimmed but still present and I was now looking at two dolls on my ceiling of miss piggy from the muppets and another random doll. The room was now even more decorated and peachy orange color for the walls. I was thinking of whether I wanted to wake up or not. I did not want more characters bursting in my room. Honestly I was afraid of them because I almost thought of them as demons but yeah...they weren't.

      Next thing I did was look at the door than at the two open windows with stairs. I contemplated whether or not I should go outside the window because I didnt want to see something scary.I was also thinking of praying to wake up but I decided to stay and be brave. Than I heard a random voice appear saying "What you see is apart of you" or something like that.

      I than got enough courage to step out the window and noticed it was daylight and I was in a wide unknown city. It looked like it was windy and gonna rain on one side where I saw a tree being blown fiercely. But on the other side was a park filled with people playing and some other city like things. When I left the window I had taken the phone to call Dawn but as I was walking I noticed burgerpants from Undertale. I was also thinking of undertale to keep myself calm by silly things. I than woke up.

      Again I forgot a lot of what happened in detail after those nightmares appeared. But still...it was a good lesson in a dream.^^ The lesson being don't worry when you see scary things in a dream. Its just apart of you that you see. So I guess that group was...my fear of demons and bad practices.

    11. #115: So close

      by , 03-24-2016 at 07:26 AM
      I'm standing in my room in my student home. For some reason I'm quite aware and thinking that I'm dreaming, though not fully convinced yet. I decide I need to do a RC. I open up my clothing closet. I will jump straight into it. If it warps me into another dimension I'm definitely dreaming. If not, I'll hit the shelves. I'm afraid that maybe I am not dreaming and that I'll hurt myself. I jump into the closet, but half heartedly. This doesn't tell me anything yet, but it does shift the balance a bit towards 'not dreaming'. I decide to attempt to push my fingers through my other hand. It fails. I semi know that I'm dreaming, yet this tells me I'm not. I have a FA, waking up in my bed in the same room. My arms are stretched out a bit. My intention to do the RC has carried over into my 'real' life and I've changed positions while dreaming.

    12. Adjusting to School Again

      by , 03-24-2016 at 04:12 AM (One Up Seeker)
      So my recall was murdered for the past 2 nights as I had to get used to waking up at 5:30 for school again cause spring break ended. Anyways I'm back

      From my short nap today:
      1. I had just gotten out of bed(FA) and I had to go to the restroom. As I walked outside of my room I didn't bother to put on any clothes so I was just wearing my boxers. The atmosphere felt very warm and nice. As I walked out into my hallway I looked out the window just above my front door. I could see the sun setting outside and it was on the verge of being nighttime. It seems as though the sun was barely just above the horizon so it was basically dark for the most part. I noticed that nobody was home(somewhat typical when I wake up from naps) so it was completely quiet. I then walk into the restroom and flip the light switch. Nothing happens and the light remains off; the restroom stays completely black. "What in the hell?" I say out loud.
      I then proceed to flip the 2nd light switch that is connected to the 2nd light in the restroom. Same thing; nothing happens. "You know, this is the shit that happens in dreams" I say out loud. I was now semi lucid and literally only seconds away from becoming lucid when my phone started ringing. It was Patrick. I answered, "Yeah what's up dude?". "Dude me and Dylan are in your driveway. Come outside so we can do our project for class" he says. I can hear Dylan in the background "Hell yeah duddee". I put on a t-shirt, shorts, and a pair of socks and walk downstairs. I then open the backdoor, walk outside, then I open my gate and am now standing in front of Pat and Dylan. "Aright lets finish this thing" I tell them. I notice that it is now completely black outside and I realize that I shouldn't be out at this time on a school night.
      Just then my mom walks out the backdoor from behind me. I already knew she was going to get mad about me doing stuff this late at night so I told her "Don't worry mom we gotta do a project for school it won't take that long. I'll be back soon". She's wearing her pink bathrobe, slippers, and her reading glasses. She just looks at me with a neutral face and then turns around and goes back inside. "Yes it worked" I thought to myself. At this point I black out. The next thing I know me, Pat, and Dylan are all at Pat's house doing the project. We are drawing cartoons on large pieces of copy paper. Our drawings look like a professional drew them and it's very satisfying to see.
