    1. Dream - Distortion Medicine

      by , 04-24-2021 at 02:25 PM
      Date of Dream: TUE 13 OCT - 2020



      Dream No. 762 - Distortion Medicine


      The dream started off with me at some huge dreaming institution, where there were a large number of people; groups being split up into boys and girls, also with the gender of the teachers. Three of the boys were of a violent tendency and had ganged up to target me in a staged attack. This scene seemed to be brief.

      In the next scene, five of the girls from the institution came to my house, and I was keen for them to meet Riku, showing them that he’s my dream guide. I asked Riku to come, in which an extra small room then appeared where my TV was situated. Though the dream was threatening to wake me up, as it counted to 3; and so I had no choice but to tell Riku to wait in the room until I took my medicine.

      I ended up taking the medicine, but that made Riku distort. He and Mickey came out of the room and sat on my couch. Riku sat next to me with an arm around me, while Mickey sat further down. The five girls also appeared to fit on the couch, with some of them being on Riku’s lap. Then dream then changed scenes again.

      SP was going to be heading to some shops, but I couldn’t follow her, as the elevators were the only way to get there. Before I would lose SP, I ended up calling out for Riku to come and for him to be quick. I ended up losing SP, but Riku came out of one of the elevators, this time, in his correct KH3 appearance, and was ready to take me in the appropriate one.

      As Riku gently took me in and turned me around, he then stood beside me, but pretty close so that our bodies were touching (my eyes closed in the dream the whole time). After a while, I asked Riku why the elevator wasn’t stopping; it seemed to be going up AND like it was on rollercoaster rails (but slow) for a while. Riku said to me “I’m taking you down the scenic route so you can have more practise”. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

    2. Dream - Take Us Back To Church

      Date of Dream: FRI 9 OCT - 2020



      Dream No. 761 - Take Us Back To Church

      The dream started with my family and I at the nearby Croatian church, with mass taking place, but in a weird way that I cannot describe. My brother and I ended leaving for some reason and ended up at JO’s house. Earlier on, I remember my grandma (dad’s side) saying that should would come to take us back to church, but she never did. She only hung around and didn’t really do much. My brother said something to her like “you should stop pandering to the girl”, but she didn’t listen.

      I ended up asking Dreamy WB to take us back, in which she turned up as well as 18-Volt (in his realistic Game & Wario appearance). After a little while of talking on the trampoline in JO’s backyard, the dream guides took us to the front. Apparently Dreamy WB was going to go with me on one bus, and 18-Volt was going to go with my brother on a separate bus. As the buses took off, the dream had ended.

    3. Dream - Riku's Tiny Car & Ridiculous Maths

      Dream No. 760 - Separated Sections


      Dream 760 A - Riku's Tiny Car

      I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, I was in my house, more aware than usual, and I recalled how I wanted to call Riku over. I didn’t seem to shout too loud, as to call into the sky like usual. Rather, I was just calling his name at a normal volume as I walked out the front door and casually strolled down the court.

      As I turned the corner to get onto the connecting street, I saw a small car driving in from the other corner and I realised it was Riku. I couldn’t contain my excitement (after not seeing him in a while) as I stood as far on the nature strip towards the road as I could, eager for Riku to see me. At first, it seemed like Riku couldn’t find a place to park, but then I realised he was assessing the nature strip, and he turned around, parking in-front of me even though it was the wrong side of the road.

      As Riku slowly got out of his low-positioned, tiny car, I couldn’t stand still anymore, waiting for him to come and speak to me. When he was close enough, I said “Riku! I miss you!”. For a short while he didn’t say anything; however, once he seemingly processed my words, he walked right up to me and hugged me, letting off a vibe as if he missed me too. He then went back to his car and drove off, not sure if he was leaving or was going to my house.

      The dream went to the next scene in which I seemed to be demonstrating my own battle skills to Riku, with some Renee Geyer music playing in the background, which was supposedly my action theme. Aqua seemed to take an interest, coming into the scene; I gave her a sole demonstration of my abilities next, and she was fascinated by them. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 760 B - Ridiculous Maths
      I can’t remember much about this dream, from where I can remember. My Year 6 teacher was at my old house, taking me for some sort of maths class. However, the maths was of a ridiculous difficulty and with the way he was teaching it, I could not remember anything. I seem to recall it was parabolas but the dream just made the whole concept non-understandable. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream No. 759 - Can You Help Me With My Dreams


      I can’t remember much about this dream. From where I can remember, the dream started off at the local primary school near my house, but I can’t recall what I was doing there. Closer to the end of the dream, there was a sub-scene where I was supposedly at Riku’s house. He was walking me through the kitchen as he asked me if I could help him with something about his dreams. The dream then ended.

      Dream - Profile Picture Insect & An Arm Wrestling Win & Schnitzels With No Gravy & Monetary Distractions & Talk About The Dole & Reflective Mass & Look After Her



      Dream No. 758 - Separated Sections


      Dream 758 A - Profile Picture Insect

      I can’t remember much about this dream. From what I can remember, there were this weird sorts of insects flying around on a group of buses. With the bus I was on, there were only one of these strange insects. Strangely, I thought that the insect would make a good profile picture for my social media accounts. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 758 B - An Arm Wrestling Win
      This dream took place at the rooftop car park of Waverley Gardens Shopping Centre. I was arm-wrestling with someone when I beat them for an upset win. Riku, in his KH2 Organisation coat and blindfold, was seen laughing joyfully at my victory. That’s all I can remember about this dream.

      Dream 758 C - Schnitzels With No Gravy

      The only thing I can remember about this dream is that I had a dinner plate of schnitzels on the table, but the gravy wasn’t ready yet and so I decided to wait.

      Dream 758 D - Monetary Distractions

      The dream started with me being en-route to see my deceased grandfather, however, there was then a knock on the door to my room, by my dad. I opened the door and saw my brother standing there, offering me a five dollar note. I ended up taking the note, but the I was forced awake! I did not know that the five dollar note was indeed a temptation that I had to resist if I wanted to achieve my dream task.

      Dream 758 E - Talk About The Dole

      My dad and I were talking about the dole being offered in Australian. The decision was made to put $150 into my bank account, rather than just $100, as this would give a higher interest rate on the return. My dad then also mentioned that the dole would allow us to live in a place of our own, and so I could live independently. He suggested Mansfield to me, but I rejected it because of the current coronavirus conditions, as well as Australia’s fire season approaching. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 758 F - Reflective Mass

      I was singing ‘Make Me A Channel of Your Peace’ at my local parish for church reflection. There was a big crowd at the mass, and through energy only, I could perceive Riku in the church. I did however, visually notice one of my mum’s friends sitting at the back of the church. The dream then ended.

      Dream 758 G - Look After Her

      There was mention that some sort of stream would be going live at a certain time. In the meantime though, there was a sub-scene on Twitter, where there was a video of Terra, ‘posing a challenge’ to Riku (in his KH1 clothes). Terra said for Riku to ‘look after her’, in which he reluctantly agreed and went ‘oh alright’. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream No. 757 - Separated Sections


      Dream 757 A - No To Jobs

      This dream started with my in my house, in the middle of the night. My dad seemed to ‘threatening’ me with a job application plight, in which I said no to, but then my parents ended up getting angry with me. I fought with my mum as she tried to take the paper Rikus and Sora from me that I was holding. I succeed as I managed to hold onto them, but mentally, I was still at war with my parents.

      I went out into the backyard and ended up singing ‘My Heart Is Broken’ by Evanescence. Going back closer to the house, I realise I’ve been holding a paper Sora this whole time, and his energy radiates to comfort me. This is all I can remember about this dream.

      Dream 757 B - The Battle of Wills

      This dream took place on the Destiny Islands, with a battle of wills between me and ‘Dr. Xehanort (basically just the old Xehanort)’. Dr. Xehanort would win if I was without Riku, but it would be the reciprocal with what I want. Riku ended up appearing in his KH2 Organisation coat, but didn’t do much. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream No. 756 - Separated Sections


      Dream 756 A - Twenty Floor Office Building

      The dream started with me inside an office building in the centre of Dandenong. Even though the building had 20 floors, all floors were easily accessible by stairs. My supervisor, who was an older lady, came up to me and said that I wasn’t allowed to interact with anyone else in the building, and that I would have to report my activities to her. She said that she would be located on the 4th floor.

      Later on in the dream, I seemed to be in a different area of the office building; still on the ground floor (G). There were a whole bunch of people there, mostly girls that were from my high school in real life, them in the dream being fellow employees. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 756 B - Energised Paper

      There wasn’t much that happened in this dream. I seemed to be walking through the bushy area beside the creek of the Tirhatuan Park train, when I had a KH2 paper version of Riku in my hands. As his energy seemed to be emanating from the paper, I pressed him up against me. I can’t remember anything about this dream.

      Dream 755 A - Unethical Dreamer Behaviour

      I can’t remember much about this dream. From what I can remember, Riku (in his KH2 appearance) came to help me with the bathroom fan, but as the dream was threatening a wake up on me, I chose to eliminate him! I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 755 B - Army of Evil Luigis

      The dream started off in the dining room of my house, with my brother seemingly being upset about something, in a distressed and distraught way. As I walked off to my mum’s bathroom, I called a dream guide on my phone to see if they could help my brother, and I got Murray (Sly Cooper). I spoke to him for a while but I can’t remember what was said exactly.

      The dream then went back to the dining room, where Murray was back in the scene with me. There were all these holograms of evil Luigis present that Murray was helping me fight off. However, there were too many of these holograms for just the two of us to handle. It was then that various guardians of light from Kingdom Hearts, including Sora, came to help me. I said to everybody that we needed to put in a team effort to take out these Luigis. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream No. 754 - Separated Sections


      Dream 754 A - Schnitzel Burger

      I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, this dream was once again full of coronavirus regulations, but I have forgotten the ridiculous specifications of the rules this time. I was at some unknown large shopping centre when I was looking for a place that sold good schnitzel burgers. It was the second shop where I liked the look of the food and working at the counter was someone I knew from primary school. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 754 B - The Land of Departure
      There wasn’t much in this dream. From where I can remember, Aqua and Ventus were seen in the throne room of The Land of Departure. Shortly after, Riku came in and he briefly hugged me. That was it.

      Dream 754 C - Changing Voices
      The dream took place in my sitting room. David Gallagher, who is the voice of Riku IRL, was speaking to me. He asked if I would be willing to take his place in voicing Riku after he had done so for 46 years. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 754 D - Watching Her Sleep

      This was also a short dream. I was lying sideways on my bed, looking at Riku (KH3) as he softly smiled at me. The dream then ended.

    10. Dream - Lost In The School Yard & Santa Balloon Airbus

      Date of Dream: WED 30 SEP - 2020



      Dream No. 753 - Separated Sections

      Dream 753 A - Lost In The School Yard

      I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, I was at a distorted version of my primary school. I’ve forgotten whether it was for class or for something else, but I was supposed to find my way to a specific building. After ascending a part of the distorted school yard that was very hilly, I still couldn’t find the building and declared that I was lost. So I ended up calling for Riku to help me find the building.

      He didn’t appear at first, but rather I could hear Riku’s voice. He was telling me to meet him at the chapel (I’ve forgotten it’s name) and he would take me from there. When I finally arrived in-front of the chapel, Riku didn’t appear. Instead, I began to perceive his energy, which itself began trailing down a certain path, and so I decided to follow his energy trail. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 753 B - Santa Balloon Airbus

      I can’t remember how the dream started. From where I can remember, my grandma’s friend was living close to us, but not at the same house that she lives in, in real life. In the distorted house, her grandson was also living with her and he was sorting through the household mail. They weirdly discovered that any mail for me was also being sent to their house instead of ‘my house’, so I was supposed to be living with then in that case, even though I wasn’t.

      My grandma’s friend told my grandma that she wanted to meet up with me and her at the local pub. The dream went to the next scene, which was my mum driving us along Wellington Road; my mum and grandma in the front and me in the back. We couldn’t find the pub though, so I stuck my head out through the window and asked for Riku to help us get to the pub. For a good long while, there were no results, but I had no intentions on giving up and kept yelling for him through the window. As my mum drove us further and further down Wellington Road, we would get more and more lost.

      Eventually, the terrain of the road became weird, as if there were potholes everywhere and other things to make our drive rough. We were approaching a major bridge though, and there were all these Rikus, one in every single possible game appearance, sitting in a lined-up fashion on the top of the bridge. None of them looked pleased, and we ended up driving under the Riku that mostly resembled his in-game KH3 form.

      We were then continuing on our own but the drive wasn’t getting better… In-fact it was getting worse. There was now a massive hole, like an endless pit of death, forming one side of the road, and we only had a narrow space of fragile tiles to drive on. I was so scared we were going to fall off that I was screaming for my life, but also not giving up, screaming for Riku to do something. Eventually, I yelled “Riku! Help your dreamer!”, thinking he may have forgotten who I was to him.

      After countless, non-stop bellows of “Riku!”, he came floating in from the distance, over the bushes. Yes, he was floating in a round, inflated Santa suit, giving him the body of Violet Beauregard, with his tiny head sticking out from the furry collar of the shirt. Soon, we found ourselves (still in the car) attached to Riku by a rope that he was holding. Backtracking his route, he flew the car over the bushes and towards the hotel. He asked me ‘is this where you wanted to go?’, I said yes and that’s when he slowly lowered us into the car park After that, he detached himself from the car, leaving the rope behind with it, and floated off, and that’s when the dream ended.

    11. Knife hunt

      by , 04-24-2021 at 09:52 AM (DJ of lucid goals and how it goes)
      I'm in some room with a bunk bed. My dad sits in the lower one and talks about money problem and some kind of new job (New fragment). I'm holding in a knife and fighting with Gabriel in my class. He is striking me all the time and I just block. I run away and see my surroundings, I'm in a big house with roof at least 8 meters up. I run for the exit but a girl is there with a knife. I run back and notice that she is going to throw the knife at me. I laugh at her because I know it will be easy to dodge the throw from this distance. She throws the knife and it is easy to dodge it. (new fragment). There is a ghost by the shore and we walk to it. It has armor and a bone shield on its back. I try to hit it but it has no effect. Dad comes and cracks his shoulder pad open. The armor falls off and Peter comes out from it. He is friendly and we walk away (new fragment). We come to a campfire and there is a good looking girl there which triggers lucidity. I tell all the people by the campfire that this is a dream and they nod. Details are disappearing and my vision goes dark.

      Notes: My cousins played a game where they pretend to have knives and hit each other.
    12. 4 April - Exploring a mysterious research facility

      comment lucid non-lucid

      VILD during a late WBTW. Visualizing something about an old woman who would teach me visualization. I think she is my dream guide because it was my subconscious filling in her look. I want to meet her in a dream one day.
      I am losing it, my minds wander through short daydreams, dreamy thoughts and minidreams.

      Rose Garden
      In my childhood garden, I am thinking about where to plant roses.

      A shitty dream sign
      I am in my grandmother's house, with my husband, in her bed. I notice he has something brown on his green fleece jacket and it is poop, stuck to his jacket in several places on his back!
      I call my mum but I can't scream, so I tell him to call her. She comes and takes the jacket and tries to clean it.
      I talk with her about how she got a water tap to this room (it isn't there IRL). She tells me to think. I realize there always was a water pipe on the other side of the wall. But I don't understand why the water pipe leads through a wardrobe.
      I think about how my husband was able to get the poop all over his jacket. How was he able to do it? And how was he positioned in the litter tray?

      I realize it is my cat usually having these problems, not my husband!
      I am waking up from the dream but I feel relaxed. There will be another dream soon.

      Exploring a mysterious research facility
      I am lying on a floor, it's made of beige tiles, cold and sloping down from me. I realize this is my dream body lying there, feeling this, and I am lucid! I am worried about the dream not being stable yet but I try to slide down the slope, head first. But I have some clothing under me, preventing this. I return to my original position, worrying about moving my real body if I do something too radical.
      Then I decide this is stable enough and movement helps to stabilize anyway, so I adjust my clothing, sit, and slide down the slope, gaining speed on my way down.
      Under the slope, I stand in a corridor. There are two doors, partially open. I choose the way directly forward but can't stop thinking about the other door. What was there?
      Behind the door, there is another corridor and some cabinets with drawers. It feels like some (old/socialist/east European) research facility or a similar institution (imagine tiled floor, wood veneer on furniture, and that ugly yellow waterproof paint on the walls). I open some of the drawers, they are very detailed but empty.
      There are more doors and I have to choose again. I feel a presence behind one of those doors and get worried about someone finding me here. I quickly progress away from this presence and suppress the thought.
      Another door and I can hear some people and smell food. Great, I think, an opportunity to taste some food in a LD.
      It looks like a cafe. They have some deep-fried stuff and some big fried balls, maybe eggs. I ask if I can get something and they tell me to wait in line.
      I start remembering that I was just sleeping and only have my sleeping clothes and no money with me. That sounds like a problem. I have an idea to check my pockets but no money they - only an old, used, paper tissue. I try again and try to really believe that I have money but again, nothing there.
      It's my turn and I say that I want something to eat but have no money. They obviously think I am crazy. I ask them if they can give me something again but people around laugh, thinking I am some poor student.
      I leave the room, feeling embarrassed. Isn't it stupid, that I have to pay in my own dream?
      I try spinning around to leave the scene and change the scenery but I only crash into an automatic door and hurt my arms. Which is even more embarrassing.
      Then there is a huge hall, like a railway station or something like that. There are people - many of them - hurrying somewhere, everyone going somewhere and there's too many of them and I am still disoriented after crashing into that door and I don't know what to do.
      Suddenly, there is my ex, S. He says: "You are someone I used to have sex with a lot" and I say "You are someone I used to have sex with a lot" too and we hug and start to make out.
      I tell him "this is my dream" and he says "no, this is my dream". I say "I don't believe in shared dreaming" and I think that means that one of us has to be lying. And it has to be him because I know I am dreaming. Or is it possible to be in someone else's dream? What if this is really his dream and this is the reason why I lack control?
      I notice that his face has changed. His hairs are now short and his face is different. And he feels like someone else. Is this some shared dreaming trick? I ask him why is he looking different.

      I wake up.

      My friends, A and P, have a bunch of rings, some are their wedding bands, some are other rings, we talk about them. There is a stone, blue and gold, with a labradorite-like effect, very heavy. I like that.
      In this dream, I think it is a daydream and not a dream. Later, I realize this was a dream.

      Grandmother
      I am with my grandmother, in her garden. There are some weeds. I am thinking about possible spaces for planting roses.
      I think this is a daydream and not a dream.
      Then we go inside and I log my previous dreams (O and a lake, A&P) in my DJ.
      For some reason, I don't wear any top. Some girl wants to see what I am writing but I tell her it was personal. But I show it to her anyway.


      Gravel road
      I am lying on a gravel road, trying to sleep. I decide there is no point in trying to sleep. I decide to log my dreams.
      Then I go down the road.

      And again, I think this is a daydream!
      There is a blanket and my husband and I sit next to him and think about my dreams. I remember I forgot my DJ up on the road but forgot it after a moment.
      Right next to us, there is a house and a door and I get inside with some female DC. It is a house of someone rich and important but they don't live there anymore and artificial intelligence is caring for the house. The girl DC let them to serve us and care for us. We are there for days or weeks
      (it doesn't feel like that but it the knowledge behind the dream).
      Then we are outside again and they catch us and someone is surprised by our behavior.
      I slowly wake up from this, struggling to believe it was a dream, but remembering that I already logged my dreams twice!



      And another one on 3rd April

      I am trying to VILD. I imagine drawing numbers and colouring them. Then I daydream about being an apprentice of a master of drawing. But it doesn't last long.
      I slip into a mi of short daydreams turning into dreams. I feel awake and aware of my surroundings but I don't realize that some daydreams fully turned into dreams.

      Sex
      I am in a room with some people/friends. I am wearing my nightie only. T touches my breasts under the nightie. I tell him that I don't mind him doing that but that I don't like not having control over it (basically, that I want it and he should continue but I don't like him not asking).
      I snap my fingers and all other people in the room disappear, it's just two of us.

      I love that. I think how cool it would be to have this skill in a real dream, but this doesn't count because it is only a daydream.
      Then we start kissing... and other things.



      Notes
      I don't know why I struggle with this. Maybe because I like to daydream and my morning daydreams with closed eyes can be vivid and look the same as dreams - at least to my half-asleep brain.
      About the differences:
      Visualization - completely conscious, needs to be maintained with a lot of energy, needs to be micromanaged.
      Daydream - telling myself a story, it can be with our without a narrative over, usually with good visuals. It's part me, part subconscious. Me steering the whole thing but micromanaging isn't needed. It stops if I stop.
      Dream - 100% subconscious, running on its own.

      I used to think that when anything happens in my daydream which I didn't put there (a new object, a new scenery) that it means that it is a dream. But in fact, it is not stable at that point. It needs more to become a dream.
      When daydreaming during hypnagogia, a lot can happen. My dreaming mind is usually trying to distract me by changing the scenery and changing things in my dream. It is OK to let it rather than trying to keep the focus... but it is then hard to stay lucid. This often leads to semi-lucid dreams. With a good chance of regaining the lucidity later.

      One more note: My FAs are never in my bedroom. It can be a hotel room, random room, or just trying to sleep anywhere, like on the road. Fragmented low-quality sleep causes this type of FAs for me.
    14. cclvii. City of cathedrals, Investigation, Concrete sewers and undead rabbits

      23rd April 2021

      Fragment:

      I'm in a city, with H or maybe a friend, possibly a dream character. It's built out of full-sized cathedrals which in turn also basically make up a lot of the surrounding landscape. Either way, I'm on a public footpath of some kind and with a non-conscious impression of being somewhere quite high up. There are many other people around, I remember seeing people going in either direction with backpacks on.

      The public path is built on top and as part of some cathedrals' rooves, which are partially flat. These bits have sections of tempered and thick (more than an inch) stained glass that allow pedestrians to walk over them and see inside the cathedrals that are below them.

      (recall gap)

      Something about a police investigation? I'm helping investigating or something.

      (gap)

      A concrete room underground. Related to sewers or some similar water processing facility? It's wet and there's some very deep water, which I can't see into very well but I'm not trying to look. There are platforms, this room has a feel of being like some kind of puzzle or challenge room.

      At some point, I'm now in the water. In the water, there are dozens or perhaps hundreds of undead and rotting rabbits. Their fur is green and patchy. The visible flesh is a pale violet or purple. The ones that have eyes, possibly glow. The undead rabbits swim mindlessly at the surface of the water. The water does not look unclean, despite their presence. In fact, it's kind of clear, even if I can't see very far into it.

      The room has a cold and dim light or ambience.



      Notes:
