Had a dream this morning where the singer for the band Seeded Crown(aka Calm; aka Phoenix Rising), was calling me out for liking his band. He said that Nu Metal was a stupid genre and had a stupid sound. The dream featured me at my old elementary school playing the bass line of one their songs titled "For What It's Worth"; the chorus specifically. Interestingly enough, I had figured out that bass line a few days ago and have been experimenting with it. I was shredding that bass-line in the dream.
Wake back to bed. Read a little about lucid dreaming before getting sleepy. MILD technique. So, I found myself walking towards my backyard when I became lucid for no particular reason. It felt like a Deja-vu, even though it was the first lucid I had that night, it didn't feel like it. Anyway, I felt ecstatic. I realized that I had never laid on my hammock while on a lucid dream, so I did! As I lay there, it struck me: the tasks of the month! Getting up from the hammock, I tried to turn the dream upside down, right there in my backyard. But I just woke up... or did I? Actually, I was now reappearing in some sort of outdoors courtyard with some tables and chairs in it... but I was upside down! Or was I? It felt like it for a moment, but obviously I'm not falling down towards the sky or anything. So, I thought, "what's the difference between being upside down or being upright when the laws of gravity seem to be working correctly?" Either way, this time I did wake up. I maneged to 'chain it up' inducing a DEILD in the form of an OBE-like exiting of my still-sleepy body. I got out of my house through the front door, and I quickly realized that there was some sort of pool party in my front door neighbors. They were actually two pool parties going on! One with a fake blow-up pool, and the other one with a real pool (that obviously isn't there in real life. I could hear sick music coming out of these parties! There were dream characters all over. I decided to climb some sort of wall/fence that was dividing both pool parties to jump to the big pool. Climbing up, I felt the hot summer lucid dreaming Sun in my back. It felt so warm and vivid and awesome! Anyway, instead of jumping into the pool, I decided to give the task another try. Feeling that the easiest way to turn the dream upside down was to fling with my feet the wall/fence I was standing on (as if I was doing a backflip with a skateboard), that's what I decided to do. Long story short, it didn't work. The dream quickly turned into a hallucination-blob and I woke up. Needless to say, I had fun trying.
I'm in a car, dad's driving me from my hometown to the city. Next to the church we see a new facility of some kind. It has a massive machine creating a storm. I see how it weaves lightning into massive, thin and solid pieces. It's like fabric made of light. The machine also creates a zone of dark storm clouds, but the lightning fabric pieces flying around are easily visible. They spin around the facility like a tornado and slowly grow. This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in a dream. The pieces condense into a massive ball lightning. I can feel the air electrifying, even though we are far away. The car should protect us from the explosion. The ball lightning disintegrates explosively. The wave of electricity passes the car without harming us. We make it to the city. While on a large bridge/intersection, there is an explosion beneath the bridge. The metallic frame of the bridge stays in one piece, but the concrete and asphalt or whatever crumbles away. The car is stuck. Dad tells me to get out of the car and go on foot. I do so, and leave my dad behind. The only exit from the bridge is an underground tunnel that took some damage too. There's rubble, smoke and fire inside. A lot of civilians need to get past it. Some emergency people help us through, we get a rope that we tie to each person for safety and start making our way through the caved in tunnel. There are narrow paths through. We find a door and the next section of the tunnel is full of smoke. We wait, because running into that smoke is not smart. We hear shooting from behind us. We have to go. We run through the smoke and make it through the tunnel into a safe room. We untie the ropes and three people enter the room after us. These are people I know in real life and they caused the explosion and were the people shooting. I grab one of them by the shirt and yell at them, asking for a reason. His face shows no emotion. He has a gun, but I do not fear him. He wouldn't shoot me, no matter what kind of situation he's in.
Date of Dream: THU 22 JUN - 2017 Dream No. 139 - Separated Sections Dream 139 A - Violence In The Building First of all, there was talk about the requirements for diploma at the Chisholm campus that was apparently located in Chadstone. I came across JC and he told me that we needed to attend one of the enrolment sessions that was taking place in the next week. The dream then skipped to the day of one of the enrolment sessions. We were in the foyer of Building W and there was also someone there that shouldn't have been there, AZ from primary school. He approached me and actually started violently punching me in the face. It took a while before AZ decided to stop and then he had walked out of the building. Then it was just me and NN in the area at one point, I wanted to talk to him but then he wasn't talking to me, rather he was on some comfy armchair, reading some book. AZ then came back in with JC and I was scared that I was going to be assaulted again. JC said to me “don't be scared of him, he's been asked to apologize”. AZ then approached me, wearing his primary school uniform and made the apology. It still apparently wasn't good enough for the TAFE's standards though. The lady that was attending the desk in a corner of the foyer called out to him and said that he was not going to be granted a place in the next course. She said she saw what he did. Then to put it bluntly, she said something like, “we're leaving you without a life”. That's all I can remember in regards to this dream. Dream 139 B - Searching For A Gift I was in some random store that I have forgotten the name of and I was looking for a hot pink t-shirt for myself, although the dream just called it a pink t-shirt. I asked my stranger friend in the dream where I could find and she pointed to this massive rack in one corner of the store. When I got to that though, I saw everything except for what I wanted and most of the clothes were the wrong colour. I can't remember what happens in the next scene. After the scene I forgot, I was back in the store and it was much bigger inside, like it had some sort of extension added to it. There was this whole new section which I was crazy about seeing. I had gone onto Facebook on my phone to message Chilly, asking her what Logan's favourite colour was so I could by him a t-shirt and when I had bought it, I would physically bring it back to his house. She answers me saying that she wasn't sure. I then said to her that his four options were gold, green, red or blue. After that, she said that she would get Logan to hop on speak to me. So then he was typing a message but from her account, so in the same chat-box. He said for me to wait until he got back from the “B & S Store”. I was slightly frustrated that I had to wait and so looked around the rest of the store by myself until I woke up. Dream Trophies Achieved - Damsel In Distress (Have NN repel 1 nightmare) - Kind Visitor (Have 1 interaction with anyone from SML) Note: Although it was JC who dealt directly with AZ, I still classify it as a trophy achievement as NN and JC are best friends in real life.
Adjusting to the night schedule is harder on recall than I thought. Bjork Just a fragment about going to some event concerning Bjork. Can't recall anything either than that. Big house I arrive in a car with some people. We are going to visit people. We go inside a big house. There's a huge landing with a drop off at the other end. I am climbing up it and struggling to get up on some poles. This part was very vivid. I saw some guy below who told me to just jump down. It didn't look too deep after all so I did. I started walking around and my recall fades here.
Had a dream where I was graduating college in the spring and thus was surrounded by many empty seats since all the cool kids graduate in the fall. I saw my parents there and also saw some old school chums there. There was a woman holding a baby who was urinating everywhere. The dream shifted to me traveling through this dark forest. I found a nest of baby squirrels and hit one of the pups with a dirty rag. The mom came out and attacked me repeatedly. Later in the dream, there was a monster that grabbed me. I beat it to death with my fists.
I got semi lucid upon realizing that the place where I live is not the same at all ,in fact , it may have been a whole different place. It was night. I was walking through train road tracks ot the other side where my home was, but things were different. On the other side was some sort of castle , villa , i dont remember, and a fence, after the fence was lots of trees so i could barely see the building from the trees. The train tracks were going into the light which was a city I guess. Behind me was the suburbs. As I walked through I saw suddenly that someone was following me , it was some guy, but I couldnt see any details because we were in the shadow of a train, and the lamps didnt work around the train tracks... I tried to fight it with a big object i was carrying which was kinda light weight. I pushed the guy but I woke up in that moment out of fright...

Date of Dream: WED 21 JUN - 2017 Dream No. 138 - Seeking Solace I don't remember the exact sequence of events in this dream. The first thing I remember is being at this unknown place, like the outside of crown casino and there I was with my family and saw a large number of Killester girls with all the PE teachers. I remember the top part of the girls' uniforms were there sports clothes but they were wearing their winter skirts on the bottom. Apparently the excuse is that they were actually netball skirts. Then my parents said something like, “there's your friend” but I didn't know who they were talking about. The dream scene then changed to me standing in some empty residence with a beautiful sunset in the horizon. I was on my phone and logged onto Facebook in order to message WB. The dream had portrayed that I was in some emotional distress and it was more hidden rather than specified. I remember typing the message, saying something like “WB I need help, please talk to me”. I waited for a while but never got a reply. I do remember her profile picture was distorted in comparison to real life. Her hair was so straight compared to its usual nature and her face was very thin and pointy with her eyes being close to each other, only separated by this tiny but long pointy nose. After a few short minutes of waiting, the dream scene shifted to some event at another completely unknown place. There was this sort of council festival. I could mostly remember that there were all these people in a massive pool having fun. I had a go in the pool as well and at a certain part, these big waves were pushing me across like a slide which felt really fun and enjoyable. There were other things that happened at this event but I can't really remember them. After that, the dream scene had played another variation of the messaging scene but with the same intention and concept. The third scene then played and my grandparents from my dad's side were driving in this shopping centre carpark. Their car was about to enter a really big lift and so I started freaking out. My grandma then said that they weren't going in there and instead, were driving to the Knox car park from the Dandenong Plaza car park. I did know that they were entering the Knox car park because I recognized the blue coloured poles from Knox in a previous dream. I did actually somehow remember the appearance of Knox from a previous dream although there was no lucidity involved in any way. I think this was the last scene of the dream and then I woke up. I forgot whether the messaging scene played again or not. Dream Trophies Achieved: - None
Date of Dream: TUE 20 JUN - 2017 Dream No. 137 - Elemental Bass Friends I remember the four elemental dragons from The Legend Of Spyro, doing something on a cliff top, very close to the edge of the cliff. They then fell off and when they died, all their elemental powers had been transferred to me, although I didn't really do anything dramatic, I could just feel all this energy and I knew what it was. The scene then changed to this classroom-like setting where there were heaps of students' art on display. It was art from the year of when I was on prep but then the pieces of art looked like high-school standard. I then saw this one painting that was mine and I was telling a random stranger of all the detail of it. The dream then skipped to my dad and he had mentioned something about his four bass playing friends. I told my dad to go and see them now and stop putting his project off. The dream then played a scene with each of them and each had resemblance to one of the four elements. The dream then stated that they all lived on the one road. The dream scene then went back to me and my dad was angry with me some reason. I remember he said something but I've forgotten specifically. I do remember saying it's 2016 when he started the project in 2013, so he'd better get moving now than never. That's all in regards to this dream. Dream Trophies Achieved: - None
Morning of June 21, 2017. Wednesday. I am in my bedroom in Cubitis (where I have not been in real life since the summer of 1978). There is not much furniture present other than a bed. My room is full of very shiny small gold nuggets and gold dust with a few piles of gold coins. It seems to be nighttime. I do not consider that my bedroom being filled with gold all over the floor from wall to wall is unusual in any way. I also do not consider that it is unusual that I am Casper the Friendly Ghost, in cartoon form. Wendy the Good Little Witch is visiting. There is no direct association with humanity at all. Snorkledorf, the Freakies Cereal character, though not associated as such by my dream self, is approaching from the west. Wendy and I know that we are in danger. He will most certainly eat all my gold and then eat us. We decide to flee. Wendy and I fly northwest, and although I phase through the wall as I am flying because I am a ghost (though I often do this as my more conscious-self-based dream self), Wendy does as well, which puzzles me briefly. Perhaps she quickly used her magic wand. For a short time, I am thinking that she could turn Snorkledorf into something else, but that might not prove to be feasible. We both fly north now. The area is no longer like rural Cubitis but not like a city block, either. The houses are close together, the backs of the houses facing each other, with shared backyards (an interesting dream distortion). Somehow, the area seems familiar or at least “correct” to me (even though it is entirely unique) and I decide to fly to the library. Wendy is no longer with me. I get the idea that Snorkledorf might be able to track our direction using his sense of smell, but that concern fades. In the unfamiliar library, I am “myself” to some degree. That is, my dream self identity is now human but there are not many threads of my current conscious self identity, though I have no dream-self memory of having just been Casper the Friendly Ghost. I discern my fictional dream self as when I was around twenty-five (even though I had not been in Cubitis since age seventeen). I “know” that the library is north of my home in Cubitis, the other side of Highway Seventeen from where the plant nursery would have been in reality (as well as the opposite side of the highway as my home was). As usual, this is the first time this fictional layout has ever been rendered. There was no public library in Cubitis. I look westerly at a tall wooden magazine rack and see a variety of magazines and comic books. I think I might buy a book I see in about the center of the rack, which is a graphic novel of perhaps sixty-four pages, though it feels thicker when I stroke the slightly irregular spine with my right thumb and index finger. Even though I am not familiar with its content and it does not seem all that interesting, I decide I will buy it as I read the price on it as $1.13; a dollar and thirteen cents. My dream self does not consider that, being in a library and probably not part of an ongoing book sale (though there are book sales at our local library in real life), that I could not buy it even though I plan to. I turn around and lean down upon a heavy wooden table to read the book more closely. There are a few other people seated at it, including a very chubby short-haired unfamiliar male on my right (south) of about twenty. As I lean upon the table while turning a couple pages of the graphic novel, the heavy table begins to tip to the point where its top is almost diagonal to the floor. “I’m sorry,” I say to the small group of people, as I catch and pull the table back upright before it is fully on its side. “If you could harvest that energy, you could solve the global energy crisis,” the chubby male says formally but cheerfully. I wake. The gold in my Cubitis bedroom uniquely symbolizes all my dreams that I had documented and decoded in my youth.Snorkledorf in this case symbolizes so-called dream interpreters. They “eat” (read) someone else’s dream without knowing what a dream is (what gold is for). They “trumpet” (as does Snorkledorf) an irritating out-of-tune fallacious “interpretation” with no understanding of personal value or experience or true meaning.Being Casper and flying is a waking symbolism precursor. Flying is the main anticipatory form of waking from a dream. Some “experts” believe this evolved from our ancestors falling out of trees while sleeping, but other “experts” have other theories, such as unconscious confusion of the physical body being horizontal in sleep while residual threads of the conscious self identity are rendered as upright in the dream state. I am more inclined to believe the second theory.$1.13, the cover price of the graphic novel, relates to how long I had been sleeping, an hour and thirteen minutes, a format I picked up from watching the timer on our DVD player so many times over the years. The graphic novel itself symbolizes being in the dream state.It is curious that the personified preconscious (though already coalescing into my emergent consciousness) said “harvest” instead of “harness”. (“Harvest” would imply getting electricity from plants, thus I suspect it means on one level that I should eat more green vegetables for more energy.) Thinking that Wendy could transform Snorkledorf with her magic relates to a conversation Zsuzsanna and I had prior to my dream. Neither of us have any answers for what is really wrong with much of humanity, regardless of how many times we had discussed it. This also relates to a recent analogy I came up with. Being an Internet dream journalist with over fifty years of experience is like being a heart surgeon with a detailed personal diary and additional book on anatomy. In the night, a person comes in through the window and scribbles in the margins “explaining” how the human body is run on hamster wheels…

Ok, I don't know if you understand the title but I do so whatever. I got four dreams on Monday, but I was busy. I tried to write them here on yesterday too, but website was sooo slow I gave up. But here are the dreams: #1 This was a nightmare. I remember wathching some scary pictures. There were normal people and ghosts in them. I only saw two pictures until I woke up. At this point I tried to get myself motivated to get a LD (MILD) but it didn't work. #2 There were only aliens on Earth (expect that I was a human, I think). The aliens were big and colourful. They ate something, propably meat. This dream was really interesting. #3 I was in school and had textile work. One girl (who actually didn't have textile work IRL so...) was talking about how every girl had like A for it, expect me, apparently. I felt a little sad for it. She was mean. #4 I was in school again, and talking to another girl. She talked about her crush. She described him. It didn't sound like it, but apparently she was talking about my crush. I told her that I liked him too. I think I had this dream because I'm always so jealous. So those were the dreams I had on Monday. I had two dreams yesterday, but they were a little boring and I don't remember them that much. I also tried WILD in the morning, but my siblings were noisy so I failed. Here are the two dreams for today, however: #1 I was on a restaurant. Its food was not the typical kind, but it was good. The restaurant had dark brown walls and a weird mascot. I think I went to the actual kitchen after eating. #2 I was playing The Sims 4 with my favourite family, butI then its dad made a fire so I immediately quit without saving. Then I played it again avoiding the thing (not a stove) that caused it. So, those were the dreams I've had recently. No LDs, but I guess I'm still happy.

So, after reading a little bit about lucid dreaming and going 'back to bed', I soon found myself in a familiar state. I was lying in my bed listening to a Podcast... but realized that whatever Podcast I was listening to, obviously wasn't real. I was lucid. I induced what I call the vibrational state and slowly separated from my body OBE-style. My sense of touch came before the visuals. I found myself in a replica of the house I was sleeping in, and quickly I set out to do the tasks. It wasn't a particularly vivid lucid. But, for some reason, the laws of physics were on point (in a lucid that I was supposed to change myself in the mirror). Looking at myself in the living room mirror, I tried hard to put some abs and more muscle in my body or something like that. But nothing. After trying hard, the only thing I managed to do was: make myself more tanned. (and even that, took me some mental acrobatics). I thought that, maybe, if I went to another, less familiar house, it might be easier to change my appearance I flew to some house in my neighborhood (that, for some reason, was near the beach now). I tried to do the same thing in the mirror of this imaginary house. But, as I was taking off my shirt, just at the moment when the t-shirt covered my vision, I lost visuals and woke up... PS: After flying to the second house and attempting once more the advanced task #1, I looked up at the sky to see if I could attempt advanced task #2, but it was cloudy and no stars where to be seen... I thought about clearing up the sky and attempting the task... but, I thought: "yeah, if I couldn't give myself abs, I'm not clearing up this sky and making stars fall unto Earth anytime soon." Lol, so I didn't even attempt to do it. All in all, I had fun.

Walk I was walking through a school field towards a dirt road or alleyway. Saw Hukif coming down the road with a friend. We start talking. I keep saying that he thinks he killed my inner world characters but they are still around. He looks mad at that statement and argues that he did. By now we are passing very tall trees spaced out along the side. I say that no I recognize dream energies fairly well and I can tell that the characters I meet are still the same. He doesn't say anything to that. We wind up in some pantry in some house I don't know where. I tell him he looks different. He says really? I notice he has long blonde mullet hair almost like the goblin King on Labrynth. I say yes and I've mastered his time dilation. I notice he's speaking perfect english and wonder why since he could hardly speak it years ago over skype. I can't think If I want to demonstrate or not in the dream. I said you count your hand against the dr.." He either killed me or I woke up really fast. Landscapes I was talking to my dad or something. We were outside. It seemed I wasn't allowed in my house or something so I was supposed to camp out like a homeless person. But I seemed to have enough belongings. First I was going to go to a town where Bjork was visiting or something. I started walking and wound up on a bike. I wound up at my friend Gary's house while some other kid was arriving on a skateboard. I saw him crash and fall. I was about to go in when I woke up. Zombie I'm in a large vehicle that is like a house being driven on a road. We are escaping a bunch of zombies or something. One girl is sitting across from me. I remember from a previous rewind of the dream she had slowly turned. After a while it looked like she was trying to resist urges to eat people.
I showed up at my foster cousin and his girlfriend's house in Pensacola FL. I was outside and there was green grass and I was peaceful. They didn't let me inside. Then I was walking around and started walking down a staircase. The staircase was granite and was off-white and hard. I think I was barefoot and in my pajamas. I ended up in Tampa FL and started looking for a friend from a psych hospital who lives in Tampa with his parents. It was dark outside. I was a little scared. Then I woke up. Later, I wondered if it was real and if the staircase was a way to teleport to a different place. I'm still not sure if it was real or a dream. When I dream, I feel sensations, like taste and my body flying and doing gymnastics. Sometimes I feel pain in dreams, and weather.
6/132017 I was on a balance beam in front splits. I saw the beam and felt the splits, though I didn't feel like I was stretching. The beam was a tannish color, like most balance beams are. Then the dream slipped away, and I was surrounded by black and thought I was in Greenland. I thought it was near Russia. I was talking to some woman about New Zealand. I thought, 'I have to fly to NY to practice getting on an airplane.' I forgot that Peter wasn't in New York yet, I called him, which I normally wouldn't do because part of me is afraid of him. I realized where he is really living. I thought about getting my passport out of my safe, even though I lost the key to it. 6/16/2017 I was walking with a random guy outside. I think he was a symbol for my twin Stephen. We found a bright blue pool, still waters. The guy suggested going in and I said it's illegal we'll get caught. There was a black, grayish gate/fence. The fence was straight, not in a circle. There was no barbed wire on the fence. Suddenly, we were in the hotel that the pool belonged to . We asked the people if we could buy the pool. They said yes it/s 10,000 dollars. We said okay we put the money in your crack account. I don't remember what the hotel looked like. 6/20/2017 I was at a peaceful, light blue beach. I didn't see the sand, just the water There were no waves. I swam and walked around. Lots of people were in the water. I think it was a Florida beach, I've had Florida beach dreams in the past. Michael, Simon Peter, Jenn, and Andrew were there. Before being in the water we were in a random house or hotel. Then suddenly we were in peaceful water not thinking about the sharks that might be near us. Then suddenly someone announced that there was a crocodile in the water. It was huge, bigger than most crocodiles, and was red with bright yellow eyes. It wasn't moving, it was just there. I knew I was faster than it. I tan out of the water. All I was thinking about was getting to safety and getting my family to safety. And all the other people in the water. Part of me was afraid and I should have become lucid, but I didn't. I was/a,m faster than the crocodile. Is the crocodile my shadow side? A symbol for my fears, a symbol of whatever is blocking my family from being who we really are, my dark side, weak, unable to move compared to the bright blue waveless water representing my peace and tranquility? I found the shore and suddenly we were in a hotel room. A window was open and I was falling out of the hotel, head first. My waist up was in the air and my feet were in the hotel. Michael grabbed my legs and helped me get back in the hotel room. There was a bed and a couch visible. I knew the couch could roll out as a bed. I knew there must have been another bed somewhere. Jenn and I were arguing about who would sleep in the bed and who would sleep on the roll out couch. The fight subsided and I told her that I'd take the couch. I assumed we weren't in Florida anymore and were in New York helping Peter move in to his shared house in NY for graduate school. Maybe the beach was a NY beach, but I'm pretty sure it was FL because I've had FL beach dreams before, though those dreams happened a long time ago, The dream was both nightmarish and peaceful. I'm praying I have the dream again and become lucid and explore the sea and the monster crocodile and fly down from the window doing a flip and not getting hurt. Alas, that didn't happen. A different night I dreamed I was at a martial arts cult like group. They were teaching me martial arts and weird things happened. The dream slipped away all I know is they tricked me into thinking there was one true martial art. There's one true God, but as for martial arts, all of them work. I just happen to choose Kung fu and Okinawan Karate.
