    1. Yogurt puppies

      by , 02-11-2017 at 08:26 PM (Cinder's Dreams Gallery)
      I dreamed that I was in a convenience store in Thailand. They were selling small newborn puppies in yogurt cups.

      I also had another dream fragment where me and a girl got in a spat because we hate each other.

      I also dreamed about playing Team Fortress 2.
    2. Lizard

      by , 02-11-2017 at 07:09 PM
      In my parents front room, I get up from a settee and head over to the door. I stop suddenly noticing a large thick green lizard, like a komodo but nicer looking lol
      I make it out the door, but then head back in scared its going to bite me as its moving towards me.
      Deciding to brave it out I don't try and hug it but shove my hand into its mouth.
      It doesn't bite me and turns out to be this real sweet kid who has transformed.

    3. [11-02-2017: Survival]

      by , 02-11-2017 at 06:45 PM (Snehk's Dreamlands)
      With my family we were stranded in wilderness. We sheltered in a cavern that opened to enormous pit left by an earthquake. It was in a crossing of huge river, desert and a temperate forest. We quickly prepared the cavern for our living area, then set up a small farm nearby. Just before the harvest, during one night, some people decided to start a wild party at our farm and destroyed almost all plants. We got rid of them and set our farm anew, bigger than before. Then we started exploring the pit in search of coal and iron.
    4. Amusement Park Horror Story

      COMMENTARY NON-LUCID DREAM LUCID DREAM

      Asleep: 11:40
      WBTB: 2:18, 5:30, a couple other times in the morning
      Awake: 10:15
      Dreams: 2
      Lucids: 0

      1. I woke up only 2 hours and 40 minutes after going to sleep to use the restroom and recalled fragments of this dream. I believe this is the first dream I've recalled in an earlier REM period since starting my dream journal. The first scene I remember is a sexual scene on a bus or train, where we are trying to hide what we are doing from others. (Memory Blank) The girl with whom the scene occurred and I are now in the forest by a house that is hidden from the public. I wrote down "witness protection" as a tag but do not recall where I got that from. I see her walking along a path with her friend. But the way I see her is by watching a reflection that somehow exists in the forest, although there is no mirror or other surface that could give off such a reflection. I see myself as well, and I am wearing blue jeans and white T-shirt. Her friend says she notices me immediately. I think I am a bodyguard. I don't remember anything else.

      2. I am at an amusement park in this large mansion. Several of my co-workers are also there. It is a weird, horror mansion. All the works there are evil (as I found out later in the dream). I have the sense of this being a long dream and of experiencing a lot while exploring the mansion, but I don't recall details. At one point, I learn that my co-workers are looking for "treasure" that is kept in the mansion. It turns out the whole time the treasure was on the necklace worn by the woman who owns the mansion, whose room was on the top floor. It is a necklace with a ridiculously large pearl that is worth (only?) $7,000. There is a fight while my co-workers are looking for the treasure and somehow the necklace ends up on the ground. (Memory blank). Now out of the amusement park, I'm in a different location and receive a call from one of my co-workers asking about the necklace. I wake up.

      Notes - Since I had insomnia the past two nights, I was very tired. I think I slept very deeply as a result and had trouble recalling my dreams. I woke up several times in the later morning hours with the feeling of having been dreaming, but could not remember. Additionally, T did not go into work this morning and she often moves around when I wake up which is distracting during recall. Furthermore, I fell asleep so quickly last night that I did not do MILD nor auto suggestion. However, I did wake up to use restroom at 2:18 and I did MILD then. After, I found it somewhat difficult to go to sleep so I was awake for about 45 minutes. Then, at a later awakening, I did a full SSILD induction after which I went to sleep but did not have a lucid dream.

    5. 2017-02-10 quantity and quality uptick

      by , 02-11-2017 at 08:39 AM
      Still too late to bed, but better attention to dreams.

      + girl, my left arm wrapped around her from the back, my arm between her legs, I'm holding it there tightly, feel what's underneath and get embarrassed and pull it away

      + I need to find Joe, father of ToNei (4th grade friend, tooth accident). I'm standing on GPB looking up at their house on the hill, slightly to the left. I think Joe is probably inside the house. On the deck I see people and think T is probably there, I look for him and see a guy with a bushy beard, he seems to be there with work colleagues.

      + on a (fantasy) beach with my kids aged about 6 and 8, we're walking and talking.

      + looking at small things stacked on top of each other (in the back porch of CH?)

      + sitting at a table (at the beach?) with others, there's a (girl?) at the head of the table who wants to squish some "bug" which is in the form of a floating, rain-bow colored feather-like creature which is delicately hovering over the table. I say I don't want to squish it, it's too large, and I sort of bat it away from me, it's like a floating crepe, circular and colorful. Then I leave the table to get my little pet thing, it's like a frog in a small Tupperware container filled with water, I know it's very sensitive to light, and I see it shrinking back from the light, it is changing colors.

      + I and friends run a trolley. We've put a slab (dish-towel sized) of bacon draped over a railing (as a test?), thinking the passenger will share it with us, but the passenger does not, he keeps it for himself, and we get upset (and kick the passenger off?). He should have torn it in half and shared it with us. Something about "8".

    6. Yes, slime creatures do have families, and toasters do float within black voids.

      by , 02-11-2017 at 07:03 AM (Awake to take in the view...)
      (See Tues/Wed and Wed/Thurs for a description of the dreams mentioned in the title).

      Sunday/Monday night

      7 hours of sleep. A direct transcription of my dream journal, which has proven rather difficult to read:
      Mic pix
      Had to hold sisters' up; they were in boxes for some reason
      And a friend of mine from IRL was there

      Monday/Tuesday
      No dream recall whatsoever. So sad! D: 6 hours sleep

      Tuesday/Wednesday
      6-ish hours of sleep. I honestly can't decipher this note either. I think I was still very much in a dreamlike state when I wrote it, because it makes virtually no sense.
      "Dad, strange dry -- almost meter side (winner?)
      sprinklers"

      I remember this one though: I was at a zoo/aquarium (combination of the two). One exhibit had a nice animal in it (panda? polar bear? I think it was some sort of bear) and some creatures that were made out of slime! They were black with cute eyes, apparently. One snuck out of its exhibit somehow in order to talk to me. He wanted to be free in order to be with his wife and kids. Because apparently, slime creatures get married and have families. :O I guess he needed help getting out of there, even though he had already gotten out of the exhibit. However, the employer (zookeeper?) caught him. A snake friend of mine and I tried to save him, but the results were inconclusive...as in, I can't remember what happened or whether or not I woke up before the dream finished.

      Wednesday/Thursday
      6 hours of sleep again. I was almost lucid in this one, but not quite. I had hypnagogic imagery, and I think there was a white toaster floating in a black void. There was a creepy disembodied voice that kept repeating "Dreams within dreams! Dreams within dreams!" and it scared the crap out of me. Tess scolded me a bit when I forced myself to wake up because I could have taken control of the dream! However I wasn't thinking logically enough to do that, it seems.

      Thursday/Friday

      No dream recall sadly. 7 hours of sleep, but man I was exhausted. IRL, this whole week has been a disaster. Botched an important project that was worth 6% of my grade in one of my major courses. The stress of this semester is insane, and I really hope I can come out on top with acceptance into my program and all As. And not getting super fat in the process would be good too.

    7. Old friend's youtube channel

      by , 02-11-2017 at 04:56 AM
      I'm inside a moving our moving car and we made a right turn to Del Pilar. I can feel that we're headed to the country's capital. Other than that, it's also around 4 am. I now find myself inside a room with my old friend. It turns out that he has a youtube channel that's all about his day to day life. It's also very funny. I'm teasing him about it and the goofy actions he made. A part of the video that stood out to me was when he forgot his line and he started smiling and then laughing. He asked the other person who's not seen in the camera what his line is before that. The lighting of the video was orange and I think he did a good job of putting it in if he actually arranged the lighting.

      Now I find myself with my sister and we're entering this place. You know the place/store connected into every gasoline station? Well we got in there. This place does not look like a store. I'll describe it as a view you'll see when you look at a kaleidoscope except that it's dark. I'm not sure what we did there. Maybe we just explored.

    8. Pursued by Agent Smith in China

      by , 02-11-2017 at 03:24 AM
      I knew I was dreaming but I don't know exactly what triggered it. I found that I'm running away from someone. I was enjoying at first but the fun it was not fun anymore because of the guy chasing me. It's night and I thought to myself that it was kind of bad that some guy is always there in my dreams chasing me. For now, I lost him. I continue to hide by flying and running. I now find myself in an open view. I'm seeing that the view was incredibly vivid. A young kid told me that I am in China. It was very beautiful. The sunset stood up to me. This looks even realer than real life. I asked bit more questions which I can't exactly remember to which the asian kid answered. I'm off to run away again cause I knew that guy was gonna catch up again. I think before I flew away, saw him. I'm doing the green lantern's way of flying and took off. I never thought he'll catch up that fast...

      My only problem with this guy is I can't beat him even if I confronted him. I'm now on a dark place now. I'm hiding on an apartment's balcony. I'm seeing the coated guy really close and I hid. While hiding, I thought that this guy was Agent Smith from the Matrix. I also thought that all I had to do is to think that I am "The one" and challenge him. I got confidence and confronted him. We're fighting and I was able to block most of his shots without effort. I ended up beating the hell out of him. I'm not sure what happened next.

    9. The realness of everything within my dream

      by , 02-10-2017 at 10:08 PM
      I awoke in the dream state in a walmart. All of my highschool friends were sitting around talking and i was just listening in on there conversations. Eventually one of them said, hey man we have to go, and i said okay ill see you guys later. I followed them out the door paying close attention to the inside of the walmart. I walked up and stood at a podium and over to my right there were some calendars and magazines, "i have been wanting a calendar lately", when i walked over i began to check them all out, looking for a certain one made my NASA that has a different planet, nebula, or galaxy for each month. I didnt see one but what i did see what a magazine and on the cover was donald trumps talking about how he was going to build a wall, and at that moment after reading that withing my dream i got extremely sad, and began to wonder at why the world had to have borders at all?... I then turned around and on the way to the door i saw a girl i use to text in highschool, she was with another guy and they both only had underwear on. They were reaching in a glass case to buy what looked like small white oil bottles. I proceeded to walk out the door, and head to my car, but instead of walking to my car i kept walking down the side walk into the town i live in. While i was walking i began to notice a lot of police cars that had a bunch of people stopped on the side of the road. About the time i began to notice them I got a text message from a black kid i went to school with and he sent 8 very long texts, i didnt read but the first sentence of the first paragraph and it was talking about police brutality. I got sort of worried since all these cops were around. I thought that the New World Order was being put into play. So turned and was headed to my car back down the same path i came from. When i was walking back the same way a hill had appeared in the path, and thats when i realized i was dreaming. I had to drag myself up the hill, and i started thinking, "WOW! There is actually physics that work within my own brain.. how crazy..." i kept on walking and took a right around the path taking in all the scenery and how real everything felt. It was amazing. I could see the individual pebbles/rocks that made up the pathway i was on. i could the grass in all of its detail. I came to the beginning of the path where it made a 90 degree angle to the left. Extending over the path was a small yopon bush, i reached up and grabbed a few leaves and began rubbing them between my fingers and feeling astonished that my brain could make all this up in my head.. All the small detail, and all the people that had been around and even the texts. I put the leaves up to my eye covering a small patch in the night sky and and began telling myself that when i move these leaves there will be a visible galaxy that i will be able to see. At the same time i was thinking about taking a selfie to see how i looked, but when i was trying to do both of these things my girlfriends alarm went off and woke me up.....

    10. [10-02-2017: Code, Forest]

      by , 02-10-2017 at 09:00 PM (Snehk's Dreamlands)
      Code

      I was browsing the web when I stumbled upon source code of Blood game. I immediately downloaded it and started thinking about developing my own projects.

      Forest

      I tried to park my car in the school parking, but all places were blocked. I drove to nearby blocks of flats and parked there. Then entered school bus and with group of classmates and teacher we drove to forest, where we had a practical exam for a technician title. It was a noon, we drove to the forest along extremely convoluted road until we got to a spot with fireplace. We drove first by car and then by bikes. It was set up for us as a small party after the exam. Suddenly I found myself at the outskirts of forest in the middle of the night. I wanted to get back there as we had to return those bikes back to school. I followed the road and then I heard the sound of fallen tree and chainsaws. I was scared of one falling on my head, but still moved on. On the way I saw huge timber pile, with each log being larger than a building. I met my teacher, instantly recognised him in the darkness. He quickly led me to the bikes. I met two classmates there who also didn't returned their bikes yet. We got them, they were winnying that school's far away. I told them "With power common for lucid dreamers, we'll get there in a second!". I got the bike and focused, and instantly appeared with the bike in schol garages. I left the bike and went away.
    11. skating job interview & reality show survivor w/ 5yr old girls

      by , 02-10-2017 at 08:17 PM
      Sunday: I was in my home town I lived in when I was a kid but I was there for a job interview where I had to wear roller skates & work w/ this male friend I know IRL but he also reminded me of (JJ) someone else that I won't mention. I had others there to lean on & to give me good references. But I now had a boss who was flirty when other ppl weren't around. Mostly it was good though as the dream progressed. It was about how I'm okay now & have moved on. Reminding me that I'm a very different person now.

      Wednesday: On some weird reality tv show w/ 5 yr olds. We take a train on the way to a store & I see a familiar scene & mention it. It was a moment of lucidity but it fled after that. We had to go to a toy store & the girls were to pick out things to use to survive but they had to be in this weird Christmas section that only had toys. I remember this same scene from around Christmas time. We went back to these stables & each girl was in a stall. It was pouring rain. They had to make a fire & were using doll legs for logs. This dream was just weird as shit.
    12. Nasty cats/sleep paralysis/real life smells permeated my dream world/spaceship

      by , 02-10-2017 at 08:02 PM
      Saturday D1: This was quite a new sensation where dreams are concerned for me where smells from my real life carried over into my dream. I was asleep in a dark house. I don't remember being asleep in a dream before either. I could smell this God awful smell that I recently have been smelling every day in waking life which will make sense in a moment. It was a cat but not Meesha who always smell lovely. She is always exceptional clean for a cat because she is constantly grooming herself, lol. For a person w/ allergies that is quite a bonus! I get up from my own bed in the dream & go after it & I see a silhouette of a man step out from behind a doorway. I was lucid from the get go because of the smell. 2 cats, one black & one gray & white have been coming into my house IRL through Meesha's cat door & have been eating her food. They both smell like this smell & I can tell they are actually in my house while I'm asleep. It's overwhelming that this smell is is triggering lucidity in my dream. I open my eyes IRL & I'm in fucking sleep paralysis. The smell is way worse now because my fan is on in my room. Meesha's cat tree is right outside of my bedroom door where her food dishes are & my fan in across from her tree aiming in my room. I need lots of air when I sleep. We actually have 2 of these oscillating fans on at night. I'm pissed off that the cats have come in & I can't move. I want to wake up Mike but he doesn't get much sleep as it is & I can't move anyway. I can see a cat from my bed & I decide to just relax & wait it out. As soon as I did this I was able to get up & ran like the house was on fire. I start screaming at the cat & my voice was low & guttural like I was possessed. I chase it out the back door. I can't believe Meesha didn't see this cat cuz she was on the top of her tree. She looked at me like I was crazy & Mike didn't even stir at all.

      D2: I fell back into that damn dream w/ the stupid dark house again! I'm of course lucid again cuz that ominous smell is still in my house & in my dream. Now the house is occupied by an old woman who has a crazy amount of cats! That smell is dominating the dream because it's so pungent so everything that's going on is like white noise or back ground noise. I just know that one of those stupid cats has come in again! I need to wake up so I just do. And then like in a movie everything happens very fast. I sit up & Meesha is jumping down off her cat tree & is giving chase so I jump out of bed & cheer her on! I don't know how Mike could sleep through all of this. I remembered what time it was the first time which around 6 & this second male came at 7. The first was the black & the second was the gray in white. Both males. I don't know where they live but this smell was unlike anything I've ever encountered. I'm guessing they are holed up somewhere that isn't a house occupied by people. I now have a pattern of time to work w/ which is good. I haven't had them come back since though except Mike said he ran one off when he got up after all of this a couple of hrs later & had run one off. Hopefully we have made a strong impression or else I'm going to save up to buy a motion detector light for the back porch to deter them.

      D3: For fuck sake I'm back in this stupid house again! So now I get to be lucid again whether I like or not. But the world has gone to total shit & Mike & I need to get our shit & get out of this house & to safety so in some weird way I'm just happy I don't smell nasty cats! I'm welcoming whatever difference this dream has in store for me & I can't think of another scenario right now because I've had a rough night already. I do get to change the stupid house by making it more a residential house though which was nice it though it was temporary. I tell Mike we should put Meesha cat in her carrier cuz it has a shoulder strap. Best one I ever bought! She goes right in which is actually funny because IRL we are contemplating how to trick her into getting in it to go to the vet, lol. I know why I'm having this dream so it's almost a practice run since my country (US) is going to shit. It doesn't look like in the movies that's for sure. I think, oh fuck I forgot my fixodent which is now in my real life "go bag". We are outside & someone hands me a set of dentures that feels weird but then is okay. That was weird. We are walking along & there are all kinds of ppl now including witches & vampires which I chuckle at cuz the book I'm reading has them in it. We are all being hearded onto a ship. It's really big! It's a spacecraft of some kind. I'm in awe because I'm thinking I understand all of this. Recently IRL Mike & I saw one & have been talking w/ ppl from MUFON. How crazy is that?! We are scrambling to find our quarters & the ship is under fire. This dream all happened at a very fast pace! Protocols are being yelled at everyone & the whole dream just starts spinning out of control & I wake up.
    13. False Awakening and Workplace Drama

      by , 02-10-2017 at 07:38 PM
      COMMENTARY NON-LUCID DREAM LUCID DREAM

      Asleep: 12:45am
      WBTB: 5:30am, 7:20am
      Awake: 8:35am
      Techs: MILD, autosuggestion, WBTB
      Dreams: 3
      Lucids: 0

      1. (FA) I woke up at 5:30 to use the restroom. While trying to recall any dreams, I must have fallen asleep. I experienced a false awakening where I had just woken up and had to use the restroom. I stumbled into the bathroom, using my book light as a light (which is accurate to real life). It was hard to stand, and I almost fell during the act. Needless to say, my aim was poor. Then I walked back to bed and laid down. I felt one of our cats walking on my legs (we don't let our cats sleep with us anymore so this should have been a red flag!!). Then I woke up for real to use the bathroom. My aim was fine.

      2. I was on a bridge with several people who I no longer remember, although I know that one person was a cast member from the TV show Homeland (Brody). I recall a scene where I attempted to army crawl under an obstruction because we were worried that the obstruction would be electrified or that during our crossing the electricity would be turned on. Once we got to the other side, there were cops and lots of people.

      3. I am working in the restaurant where I currently work part-time. The time in the dream is 1:45am (which is way later than I'd ever be there in real life). The restaurant closes at 10:00am. The other closer and I are trying to get rid of our remaining guests so we can clean up and leave for the night. We are in the back, cleaning/sorting some items. When we walk to the front of the restaurant, we see that the managers have allowed another 4 tables to sit down at 1:45am!! We're obviously furious at this point. The first table I greet has a man and a woman, sitting on the same side of a booth. The man orders some weird drink that started with a K. I don't think the word made sense and I don't think it's a real drink. The drink menu had pictures and looked way different than our drink menu in real life. The woman asked for a white wine that was sour and had notes of "carrot" in it. I said I would check with the bartender. I walked over to the bartender, who was one of the bartenders from real life. She suggested one of our wines which I have now forgotten. I then walk over to the managers and start arguing with them. (Memory Blank) I walk lto the front of the restaurant which now appears to be a convenience store with aisles of items for sale? I don't remember anything after this point and it's possible that this is when I woke up at 8:35.

      Notes - I had to fly this morning (private pilot) so I needed to get sleep. Since I've been experiencing insomnia the last few nights as a result of LD practice after WBTB, I decided to skip the practice this morning. I still did MILD before going to sleep and I still woke up twice last night and experienced a FA. I'm excited for tonight (Friday) since I can practice WBTB + MILD without worrying about what time I have to be up in the morning.

    14. 2 alien dreams & an apocalyptic dream

      by , 02-10-2017 at 07:37 PM
      These are the dreams I could make some sense out over the last week but the last few days I have been so busy & those dreams reflected that with things that were hard to explain.

      D1: Aliens took away our air on this planet & made us unable to reproduce. Somehow I was chosen the be the breeder for the human race which was odd. I told them I couldn't be because I no longer have the anatomy to do such a thing. This is a dream sign trigger for lucidity since this is something that is very personal to me. They also chose some other women that I would be in charge of that were also to me a baby maker for them. I was informed that the typical human reproduction won't matter in this case. Then handed us these green wand like stick which was about 7 inches long. They had these bumps on it & the whole thing glowed. I had the feeling that these were eggs of some form because we were to insert them in ourselves during a process where they would be fertilized. We were angry about the whole thing but then they gave us pure oxygen around our bodies to breathe. Unfortunately it was what seemed to be stale air. Meesha woke me up.

      D2: I chained right back into the dream. Now we were being led through the streets & up a hill through masses of ppl. Tubes were waiting for us at the top that look like water slides. We were to impregnate our selves & as we slid down the slide an alien that looked human would fertilize us in the tube some how. Our strategy was to kill the alien some how as we went down the slide. One woman failed & I had to kill the alien in her tube.

      Next day: Every race of ppl are immediately in my line of sight. I notice all are represented. The world is over as we know it & ppl are living in this burnt out city of rubble. I found that I was happy that the initial race war accompanied w/ crazy ppl had not exceeded in wiping out whole races of ppl yet there weren't many families intact where I was. Mostly they were ppl who took in a child here & there. I walk through to see what my surroundings are. I can't help but become lucid at the sadness of it all but I just want to see more. I now know I can't be hurt but it feels like a cautionary message to me. I can see a child here or there running through the streets playing near the rubble in their clothes which are basically tattered rags and I see a lone child sitting on a front stoop of a burnt out brownstone on the stairs. A particular group of children are playing near this woman who is making me very nervous. She has something that looks like a M80 firework with a thick yet rather short green fuse that is about 2 1\2 inches long. She is showing customer after customer how her fuse is special & slow. She would light & the person was always trying to not look leery & I'm just kind of in shock looking at this woman do this repeatedly. It seems insane because I know this is no typical M80 in this scenario. She lights it & we wait, it takes a while for it to even get to the M80 but right before it gets there she pinches the fuse with her finger & snuffs it out & then pulls the fuse out of it. The person then buys it from her. This happens over & over. I don't remember ever being lucid like this looking at someone repeat a process like this. It seemed strange on so many levels. The more she does it the more I start to get nervous. I just know one of those kids are going to get hurt running around her kicking up dust. Finally a man walks up & she does her thing & it blows up. She is now gone & so is the man. A child is laying on the ground all mangled but alive. I pick him up & no one is helping me. I go into a nearby apt building & finally a man takes him from me all panicked like he may be the one who was caring for this child in this new world. I realize I had gotten up in my own lucid dream & that this of course was not real but I just can't shake that moral duty of mine even in a dream. I then turn to my right & I see my first husband & run to him because he's the only familiar face in this dream & hug him. Even though in real life I don't want anything to do w/ him but I know if the world went to shit & I came across him he would take care of me so seeing him wasn't that odd. I thought maybe he was there to help make sense of this dream but I no sooner see him than I look to my left & see this man w/ what looks like a popcorn machine. But the front looks like a giant gumball machine chute. Kids are getting cotton candy out of it. I know what my dream means now & I choose to just wake up.

      I'll continue another day in a separate journal entry.
    15. Jumbled Mess

      I recall lots of fragments:
      living my new game Starbound- terraforming, fighting creatures; vaping in public and being charged a fee for "smoking" in a room; vaping in a theater and feeling the publics scorn; traveling abroad and running out of e-juice
      Ugh... there were so many others and just like that *poof*
