Pre-WBTB (Targeting End of Sleep Cycle 4) Hermione's Date Hermione Granger has a date with an ugly guy. She has her Yule Ball dress on, the scene matches from the movie. I'm familiar with the ugly guy since I had heard about him online. They are having a light argument about something, but I can't hear them. Later I'm in a Taco Ball parking lot near my regular gym. I'm checking "Hermione at Yule Ball" off of a checklist app on my phone. The End of the World I'm in my gym's parking lot standing near a desk setup outside. I'm working on some type of model generation software. I can roughly draw with my hands in mid-air, and a smoothed-out shape snaps into view in 3D in front of me. I'm working on a dress for a female model. The female model is off-kilter with a projected x-y-z coordinate axis. I'm trying to move the dress on the model so it snaps into place, but the image is translated off some value. There is somebody else next to me. Might have been a coworker from WL. A female AI-person approaches me. She's visibly spooked, and needs to tell me something. She doesn't trust the other person, so she goes to write it down. Her handwriting is bad but I can read it. She's telling me about the end of the world. About how the world starts and ends in cycles with a calamity. And it is about to happen again. Hand-Eye Coordination B from work is telling me a story about how he entered the military at a young age. He says he ended up here in engineering because he had bad hand-eye coordination. He gestures to a ledge high above that isn't normally there and tells me that he once accidently hit it with a machine gun. He's talking to a group of older cohorts who remember those older days. B makes a joke to a 3D animation modeling person that the ledge should probably have been addressed by this many years. I tell B that my hand-eye coordination is very good, but I am still here anyway. Post-WBTB (Targeting End of Sleep Cycle 5) High School Well-Being I'm back in highschool, but I'm with Max from Stranger Things and H from a band-group I formed a few years back. I brush by Max with my backpack and accidently hurt her nose. I apologize profusely for hurting her. She reacts by giving us a lecture about how H and I are too concerned for her well-being and she can handle herself. I see some other people that look like jocks. I think about how they will probably go into marketing or sales someday.

Four: 1 Outside, at my house. I was looking to see if all the chickens were there in the yard. They were. I think I went somewhere after that, but this is just a frag (+0.5) 2 I was watching an AI play a game for me. There was options to tweak the AI’s balance between “casual and PvP” gameplay. (+0.5) 3 Grandmother’s house. I can’t remember the context once again, but I tripped and the dream ended. I went for a DEILD. A dream of my PR formed, but I still thought it was a visualization, so I was too afraid to move. (+0.5, not counting as a WILD since I never knew I was dreaming, only thought it was a vis) Also did a WBTB. (+2) ——— five: Nothing but WBTB. (+2) ——— six: WBTB. (+2) Grandmother’s house, once again. I realized I was dreaming on the road (+10 DILD). But I still followed the dream plot at first, opening up YouTube to see a short clip, of Sensei saying this: “Wanna create a persistent realm? Stop worrying about teleporting once, and start worrying about teleporting 3x in a row.” This made complete sense to me immediately; Worrying about teleporting once shall cause me to not teleport at all, but worrying about teleporting 3x in a row suggests that I can already do it once. Mental trickery. (+10 for teammate teaching me something) I tried out the advice. Phased through the concrete (this is my teleportation method) and that ended up triggering a short-range teleport a few yards ahead on the road, on first try. (+25, first of my three-step task is fully phasing through big object. I also teleported.) But I did wake up before I could try out long-range teleportation.

I wasn't able to do anything yesterday for certain reasons, but here's today Dream 1: I was working at the Security Breach Pizza Place thing. Was in the office, and I had to teach kids how to do MILD over the speakerphone. This went on for a while Dream 2: While I wasn't lucid, I was writing down notes about the PR with the website. After some time, Koschei walked in and gave me some advice on how to approach A the next PR Lucid. I then woke up. Dream 3: I was first in the movie theater watching a documentary about this insane guy that lived in the woods. I was then in those woods with a bunch of other people such as co-workers.
I’m in M Street, between the kitchen and downstairs hallway and I’m instantly lucid. My hand comes out in front of me as usual right at the onset of the dream. I say “I’m Lucid” and a feeling of happiness comes over me as I realize that I ended the three day streak of non-lucidity. It is very dark in the downstairs area of M Street and I decide to make my way to the front. I glide to the front and through the front doors without paying attention to the solidity. I reflect on dream goals and immediately think of asking the dream what my dharma is. I’m standing in the front of the house and take in the view of the bush in front of me as well as the several story tall tree with dark leaves. The scene is in the dead of night. I ask the dream, “what is my dharma”? …No response. I ask yet again, but there is no response. I decide to adjust to an English phraseology and ask “what is my life purpose” to the dream, yet no response is given yet again. I ignore this goal for the time being and begin to reflect on another. I consider heading to the dream sanctuary and begin thinking of the best method, which I believe would be via the purple crystal from the last lucid dream. I imagine it on the edge of the thornbush to my left, but nothing appears. I ignore this and turn to my right to view the glacé doors in the front of M Street. I want to get out of the darkness to stabilize the dream and avoid collapse and decide to head forward. To increase vividness and focus I shout, “focus!” with intensity while ramping up my awareness. The dream becomes slightly more vivid as I look through the glass doors at the orange hue of the light in the main entrance beyond. I make my way to the glass doors and begin making my ways through. I stop early on however thinking back to the initiL stages of dream yoga and decide to pass my hand through the solid glass door. I push my hand through slowly and watch how the fingers, then the palm slowly make their way through this translucent ‘membrane’. I smile with amusement and intrigue. I then think back to the competition and decide to phase my whole body through the solid object (glass door). I slowly make my way through and take in the dim orange glow of the room behind along with the sitting area in the far back. There are a couple of small lounge-style sofas in front of me and several more in the back of the room along with a small plant between the two areas. I consider to try to transform the plant for practice with dream yoga stages, but decide against it for the time being. I feel one of my eyelids shut and consider re-opening it but feel it may interfere with my waking body. I reflect on how vision through one dream eye seems more vivid for now and just forgot about it. I turn to my left and see a long hallway extending roughly 30 feet. It is quite sparse, however a machine which appears to be an espresso maker sits at the far end upon a small table. It appears that a small hallway opens to the left at the end of the hallway. I begin to head down the hallway, but quickly return to my waking body. Non-lucid I Enter a large bathroom which looks like a steam room of sorts. It closely resembles the bathroom in Serrano. one or two figures are in the shower-and I approach cautiously with Hanna. The Dream phases to forest area. There are Massive treant characters with top portions of their heads appearing like flat lava pools. They’re in pain. Their heads are essentially super Massive trunks- probably 15 feet in diameter. They open their mouths and there’s and intense redness and grimace of pain. Remnants of one is shown melted into ground leaving lava pool behind. Another approaches showing red gaping teeth and slowly melts into ground leaving lava pool. A DC jumps in and is slowly morphed by the heat of the lava into what almost appears like an avocado with a pit at the center which slowly changes in color, finally ending in brown.The Dream fades. I’m in what appears to be Serrano and Brandon- then Hanna are interfering with WBTB and lucidity I feel. I tell them not to interfere. I go to the bathroom - looks like Ms old house- toilet - vivid and needs to be flushed! I do so then turn to the sink. I end up in the M street kitchen and I’m talking to Brandon. I think back to a mushroom I just picked out of the yard and ate. I wonder if it’s poisoned! I ask b. 1 Nonlucid: 1 2 Fragments: 1 WBTB (Success): 2 WILD: 10 Ask For Advice: 5 Hand through object: 5 Phase through solid object: 10 Total: 100.5

NLD 1: Some dream was taking place set on the ol' beach resort. The same one dating back to my first lucid dream. There were two or three large birds there, standing around in the beach sand. They looked like bald eagles but I remember pointing out that their beaks were an unusual reddish orange color. The birds also had a fatter body than one would expect and I somewhat wondered how they would be able to fly. There were some other dream scenes and shenanigans going on involving my family but I don't recall the specifics. Did a WBTB here. Actually did like four WBTBs and had no dream recall after most of them but I distinctly remember both reality checking every time I woke up (no FA catches ) trying different approaches on each one of them and none of them worked out. NLD 2: I was visiting a hotel and resort that I believe was supposed to be in new york city. I remembered seeing an advertisement or commercial for the place which seemed to emphasize an exciting new water slide. The slide was very large and it showed a kid getting into a yellow tube and riding a waterslide that was a sort of light brown color with darker brown splotches. The darker brown splotches kind of looked like scum or dissolved minerals on the slide but since it was new it seemed they were actually an intentional part of its coloration. I then proceeded to the actual visit. It turned out the indoor water park was deep underground in a large gymnasium-like location with a high ceiling and white painted cinderblock walls. There was a large swimming pool with floats and lines on the bottom for doing laps. While it was well kept, it felt very empty and bland. Like a liminal space. I was with some other dream figures there commenting on how the place seemed like a letdown. I wondered where the slide in the advertisement was and looked up. There were two cutouts in the opposite sides of the room. A narrow light brown waterslide started at almost the ceiling level and ran straight along the long-edge of the rectangular room, going through another wall cutout about halfway down. This implied to me that there were at least two other rooms with pools in them to be discovered. SLD 1: Not counting this as lucid as it was really low level semi lucidity, though it was related to my wonderland construction. This has been a complicated process going on roughly since the winter comp. The approach I have been taking is sort of a hybrid approach, where some items are distinctly added and I try to investigate and discover others through dreams. I decided to investigate if Woue had its own submoon, specifically after the incident a few nights ago where I failed to become lucid because . It did, and it was named Uma and had a dusty red coloration like mars.
My dreams was long and I was remembering them all when I woke up, but in few seconds I lost almost entire memories. Weird feeling when I literally see like my memories are burning and on the end I have only ashes xD Anyway I will try to restore memories as much as possible DF 1# All place in that dream was fictional. My home, school, outside space. Especially school. I remember big main chamber that looked like circle and it had classes door around. I remember that I and my friends we were trying to hide something. Not a physical thing it was something... more abstract like property or idea of something. Anyway we wnted to keep this as secret and teacher was close to discover that. Entire dream was dark so I think it was night. DF 2# [I was so absorbed to remind DF1 that I completely forgot what was here] DF 3# The best remembered dream from today. I was about 500m from my home on crossroad. Suddenly i got SMS on my phone. It was about changes in traffic light and road sing system. I saw colors on traffic lights were reversed. Someone was walking with his son and they was confused about it. I told them about my SMS and father thank me for that information. Next I saw green roadsing background changed it color to yellow (the sings started to look more like in germany). I was very suprised so I made reality check. I even told to myself "It must to be dream" but my RC was false. "Really? It is a reality? Oh... okay". DF 4# I was on walk with my dad. I dint remember what happened here
First LD in about 6 months, and first DEILD chain in about 8 years, the DV comp has worked its magic yet once more! A terrible night of sleep, bedtime around 00:00, woke several times, and about 04:30 I was just up, so I decided to use this as a time for relaxation and perhaps to get a WILD/DILD WBTB: [2] At some point around 06:30 my wife & dog left the room and I was able to more fully relax. It took a lot of diligence to keep relaxing. as I was very alert. After a while, I started seeing images coming in to focus, very bright clear focus, like a room or a corridor. I could see my blankets through my closed eyes. I started thinking about how I might enter the dream more fully. Images of objects came in to bright, clear focus, like a bowl or a teapot/flowerpot, and it was rotating around its axes so I could get a clear look at it. It came into super sharp focus, and I just enjoyed the visualization, things like that are rare for me. I manipulated it a bit, adding flowers. Later after it vanished it occurred to me that it may have been a dream, a "light WILD," but then again it could have just been super vivid hypnogogic imagery. But I don't think so, my hypnogogic images are all just vague colorful blobs, and this was a fully realized visual scene. + NLD [1]: in BIL's house. There I am in a room in a house, a guy is sitting at a piano, it is my Brother-In-Law M. I see the notes appear on a piece of paper in front of me as he plays, and I hear them together with seeing them appear on the paper. Then I realize it's M, and he's playing on an electronic piano, some sort of cool digital piano where the notes appear on a remote screen as you play them on the keyboard. The sound is very electronic and imitation, not like a digital piano at all, and I think this is odd because he and my sister are both musically inclined. I say "hey you changed your piano," the used to have an upright analog piano, and again I think this is weird that they replaced that awesome piano with for this tinny sounding electronic thing. He crosses the room and vigorously pours himself a glass of wine, sloshing it messily into the glass and some spills to the floor. Things fade and I realize I'm looking at a computer screen with characters on it. Scene changes to a library (?) looking at a computer. + I am outside a building on a 2nd floor balcony/landing with an external entrance door, and I open a door and look in to a short, empty hallway. This is my place, I realize, [false], where my renter lives, and I realize that I shouldn't just barge in on him without prior notice, so I close the hallway door and turn around. I'm standing on a high balcony over a bare courtyard below, get the urge to lean out and fly, realize this means I'm dreaming [10], and I lean out, spread my arms and begin to fly [5]. I'm moving slowly, and I will myself to move faster, I reach behind me with my right arm, and imagine I have an "Iron Man" flight gauntlet on and will it to propel me forwards faster. I fly around a corner still with tall buildings around me, zig zagging right then left, and I see a large open area in front of me with a bunch of people walking around on the ground. I land and the scene fades and I feel myself awake in bed... I remain clam and quiet and a scene returns (DEILD #1 [2]). I'm standing outdoors in daylight in an area similar to where I was before, and there is a sign of some sort, like an advertising banner, a couple of yards square, in front of me, and I will my dream arms to appear and reach out and pound my hands on the sign as a form of stabilization [1]. I feel my arms are a bit heavy/unresponsive and not "real" but pounding on this sign helps bring me more fully into the dream scene. A woman walks by, and I "interact" with her [2]. Scene fades.... I figure I'm on a roll, and that the dream will soon return if I'm patient, and it does... I'm back in the large outdoor area with people walking by [(DEILD #2 [2]). There is a particularly hot, built, middle-Eastern looking woman approaching me, wearing a white evening dress, I think she's perhaps a waitress at a fancy restaurant, and I walk up to her, and "interact" with her for a moment , but not giving her much attention, making up some BS talking points like I'm asking her to get some order in order to "fit in" to the scene, and quickly leave her and move forwards. It is sort of like an outdoor restaurant, there is a tall counter with a female and male bartender standing there, I grab a flute of champagne and drink it [5]. There is not much flavor and the glass itself seems really light like it's empty. I walk a bit further along the bar and reach for another glass while saying "fix me a drink!" and it also, too, feels weightless. A bit further on towards the right-end of the counter/bar is a really tall barman, looking very dour/serious, and I ask him if his name wasn't "xxx" (forgot). "No," he answers, and mutters "Robin." "Ah, sorry" I say, and tell him he's really tall (he is) [DS] and I do a RC (score?) nose pinch and of course can breathe. I sit at the bar there is a group of women sitting there all clumped close together, I reach out and "interact" with one for a while, who turns out to be older but hey it's all good, and ask her to "interact" with me a bit, she starts and the scene fades... Figuring this is one of those once-every-many-years massive awesome DEILD chain, all I have to do is wait and think about the scene and it will continue, and sure enough....it does. I'm standing in a small office / hallway. [(DEILD #3 [2]), I move forwards. There is a low/narrow door / gate in front of me and with a gesture and a thought I blow it open with TK. [5]. I move forwards past this and the office opens into a room with a lot of comforters and chais and sofas to the left. I turn to the left into the area looking for more DCs, and as I turn and move, the area extends further and further into the distance right in front of my eyes. It is now a sort of outdoor area with a bunch of DCs milling around, and I move forwards into this area. There are a number of DCs here and I'm trying to figure out which one to "interact" with and decide on one woman. We move to an area with a bunch of doors that lead to "privacy" areas, and we enter the last one and close the door. The door has a glass window on it so I want to move farther back for more privacy, it's a narrow corridor that opens into a tiny bathroom with a toilet. I remove some of her clothing, get a quick peek, but the scene then fades... Being somewhat displeased at the loss of the dream, I resolve to remain still and return and continue. In a moment, I'm back in the toilet area in the "privacy hall" [(DEILD #4 [2]) but the woman has transformed into a man who is "ready for action" and some other dirty, sort of shifty looking guy is approaching down the corridor, asking "What are you doing with that guy?!". Thankfully, the scene quickly fades.... Figuring that I want to quickly jot down some notes about these dreams before I forgot them, I opened my eyes, got up, and did so, and started the day. One of the night things about being a LD practitioner, is that those unpleasant long bouts of insomnia can sometimes have a silver lining!
