lucid

I am walking down a city street in the early evening in what feels like the seventies, with a woman who I know from waking life. I was wondering how this woman I know from waking life is in my dream.

"Whoah, since you are from my waking life, this must be a dream!"

[I]I am lucid, what shall I do? Who is the beautiful woman? I [B]know[/B] her.[/I] She smiles at me warmly. I kiss her as she leans against a car. She feels totally real, the kiss is lovely.

[I]I am just going to stand here, and prolong this kiss, kissing you the rest of this dream.[/I]

I feel my tongue moving around in my own mouth. Sensations from the physical. Dammit! I am waking up!

I awake.

Happy to have been lucid. Wish it was longer. I am still feeling the residual feelings of frustration.

I am sitting in a waiting room. I instantly know I am on another planet. [I]Look at your hands... eleven fingers. Eleven perfectly shaped normal looking fucking fingers- no wait= 10? Nine... Shit. Okay, there is some hot alien chick with kind of a purple bird head walking in front of you. But, she looks completely fucking real and detailed. SHIT SHIT SHIT. Ok! Wait... this is because I had that Blur Lens removed finally... or I am really here? Is this like an OBE... or is my dream body here? Was I abducted? Yes! It worked!!! AHHAAHA

SHIT! IF I am on an alien planet, I AM FUCKED. What the hell do I do to survive? They are going to eat my brain![/I]

I look around the room. I am sitting on slightly worn bright green furniture which curves around a room with no straight lines. We are either underwater, or they have aquariums that look like windows. I see fish swimming about. All the people in the room are different types of anthromorphs.

Everything is so vivid, I just accept I am on another planet.

The bird-woman is the Russian woman, I somehow know. "Fuck, I have to pee," I tell her.

"No you don't. Stop being silly, and morph into something more respectable than a babboon. We don't like sapiens here!"

I morph into a zebra. She laughs. She walks over to me, and licks my face. I feel her telepathically communicate with me. "This is a dream, and this is real. This is a real place, you are really here. You do have a lot of your dream powers here, but not all. You are somewhat limited, because you are in the astral plane of another dimension, which is actually a physical dimension to some beings that perceive it as such. This being so, you must be cautious in your actions in this "dream," because this is a [I]real dream.[/I] Do you understand?"

I sigh, and exhale, "Yes, I know."

"Alright, just remain calm. We are going to meet the mayor."

We are ushered by a rusty orange robot on one wheel to the mayor's office. It looks amazing. We are inside a giant steel and glass sphere in the middle of the ocean. A single walkway ends at a small circle in the center with a desk on it. There are no railings. The sphere is hundreds of feet across.

"Welcome, to the Ocean of Hollow Earth." He floats to us in midair. Then, I realize I can also levitate. We all are. An astral tentacle snakes out of his third eye, and taps mine. He gives me a telepathic download. He is an ancient being, and understands how corrupt and dark he can be, as the universe itself can be harsh and cruel. He turns me to a mirror in a dark place, and forces me to look at my Shadow Self. I vomit in disgust. I hear a strange voice shouting at me to embrace the darkness. I tie a bandanna over my eyes. I see my Shadow Self perfectly, but nothing else. He stands out even darker against the pitch black dark void. I lunge toward him, and consume him. He leaps out of my mouth.

I turn into pure light, and draw him into me, then we spin into a yin-yang. The spinning stops... and I am at peace.

I am back in the strange sphere, lying on my back. I am a rakshasa, a lion man, now.

He shows us a game preserve. He says he built this in case there is some catastrophe, such as nuclear war on the Crust which may affect the beings of Hollow Earth.

[I]Okay... So vividity is not a "real" word. It's a dream word, so fuck you! :cheeky: This was the most vivid lucid dream of my entire life. It's because I removed my Blur Lens.[/I]
SUPERLUCID

I am practicing a parkour technique I just created in this dream called gliding. It’s running without bouncing up and down. I am at my house, which in my dreams, is always a different house. Somehow I know it’s mine. I am outside in the yard, gliding to the door, a few inches above the ground, taking impossibly long strides. Then, I realize it’s physically impossible, and I must be dreaming, even though it’s super vivid. It’s 100% clear, just like real life.

It’s a balmy night here in tropical dream land. I look up at the sky, and levitate about 40 feet off of the ground. I notice a tree I am looking at starts to fade. I often focus intently on things in dreams to make my dream more vivid. I look at the sky. The clouds passing in front of the moon look amazing. Stars are out, bigger and brighter than in waking life. A moth flutters across my field of vision. I am amazed by its perfect flight and detail.

The tree below is still fading into darkness and blurriness somehow. “Should I go to the Moon? No. I have to make this dream more vivid first. Just be patient, and enjoy the moment. It’s a beautiful dream.”

I float down about fifteen feet until I can see the Moon behind the tree. The brightness of the moon makes the edges of the leaves and shapes in the tree sharpen. A zephyr blows by and the leaves blow in the wind, so perfectly vivid, it’s like magic. Now there is nothing blurry in this dream. It looks exactly like waking life. EXACTLY.

A swarm of gnats suddenly is flying around my left forearm. I somehow associate this with discomfort from the physical plane bleeding over into this one. I suddenly feel an obnoxiously intense itch on my leg. I know it’s my physical body. I can’t help it. I wake up, and scratch.

[I]Lessons Learned and Commentary: I fell asleep in the living room at my sister's place. I woke up at 3 am, and went home. I then read one of my dreams from almost two years ago where I had an amazingly successful WILD. Uncannily, I perfectly described my last lover. (Not Angel, we broke up, but it's cool.)

I don't remember if I did WILD or not, but I did induce a lucid dream! I have released my fear of getting obsessed with my magnificent dreams, which has allowed perfect clarity in dreams, exactly like waking life. Most "regular" (not Deep Dream State) lucid dreams with me being outside at night. I usually try to fly to the moon, always unsuccessfully. This time, I just decided to be in the moment, and enjoy the beauty around me. You see, I have been working on making my regular LD's just like my Deep Dream State dreams. I am teaching my lucid mind all the things my Delta mind knows. So, it's like I am starting all over again, but I know everything I need to to get to the point where I want to go because I am already there!

I am excited about this type of lucidity. One mistake I made was I went to bed dirty. That's why I was itchy. I know it's gross, but I keeps it real. I usually shower before bed, but I crashed at my sister's place blah blah blah. Anyway, it makes me realize how important it is to dull any stimulus from your physical body. Be comfortable, clean, wear earplugs, and a blindfold or sleep mask. If your place is noisy play some music, or turn on a fan to mask the noise. These simple things are very important to extend LD time.

Another thing I learned is that not only do I have a certain sleep cycle where I have more LD's, it's always around a certain time! It's always around 7AM, even if I stay up late or whatever. I am on Spring Break. That means a lot of sleeping in, and a lot of LD's!

I have accomplished my goal of making my dreams as clear as waking life. My new goal is to stay in a lucid dream as long as I can. [/I]

I am at a party. There are half naked women making out. I find this a little odd, and annoying for some reason. I leave and go outside. I am a futuristic city.

There are couple dressed oddly making out. One is a huge Samoan man in a green dress, and a little White woman. Air cars fly by... some strange alien creature hops past and grins at me...

Okay... Am I dreaming?

I pinch my nose shut, yet I can breathe.[COLOR="blue"] I am dreaming.
[/COLOR]
[COLOR="blue"]Of course I am dreaming! Of course I am dreaming! I fly up into the sky. I am above the ocean. Hmm... what should I do next? Aha! I am going to fly to Angel and visit her in a dream! I fly toward the horizon. There is a beautiful storm cloud about to rain in front of me, lit up by the setting sun. It is amazingly detailed, orange, blue, grey, white, pink... Wait, I am flying west. I should be flying east to her in Florida. Okay...

I turn around and fly the other way. The storm is in front of me. DOH. This storm is in my way!

I look up. I see a hole in the sky forming above me. Oh, right, well, nothing between me and the Moon. I'll fly there and see if I can meet Raven. No, not fly. That will take too long. I can teleport. I can teleport! Right. I can teleport to Angel. I close my eyes and think of my girlfriend. I open them. [/COLOR]

I am in bed. Awake. DOH! :doh:

[I]abridged[/I]
I am a dark African sitting in a grass hut on a swamp somewhere on the dream plane. I have a necklaces of animal bones around my neck, and feathers coming out of my head. I have thick dreadlocks.

There are all kinds of voodoo shit hanging about.

Raven enters with MoSh, Tigress and Loaf. MoSh is half snake, but no one seems to notice. Loaf is half vampire, half werewolf. Tigress is a werewolf. Raven is Queen of Night.

"We have come to seek the guidance of the Night Shaman," says Raven.

"What is it you desiyah??"

"We desire the Great Red Ruby of Foresight atop the Mountain of Despair."

"Oh, no. You don' wan go dere! You goin' die. You all goin' die many many deaths."

"Just tell us how to get there."

"Me not know if you be deservin'. Are you strong? Are you wise ones? Are you... in unity? If not, you will die, die like a snake writhin' in th' sun! You must accomplish de task of Fiyah firs'! Outside dere is a large swamp tree, with a hollow arch. Walk t'rough de tree. You will find you in de Hell of Hells. Bring me de One Watah Drop in all of Hells, and you will prove to me dat you have de strength it gon' take. NOW GO!"

They eye me suspiciously, but turn and leave. I cast enchantments upon them of protection, energy and power to assist them in their trial.

Q appears next to me. Do you think they'll make it, Professor X?

Well, Q, it's my Danger Room. I can turn it off if they lose lucidity or get lost in pain. I am going to give you an AI orb with a portion of my power. This orb will guide you in my will, and stay with you when I am awake.

I summon a small silver orb, and put a piece of my sentience into it. I hand it to Q. Q10 appears. Q hands the orb to him.

I wake up in some remote viewer facility.

"Good job, sir. You have successfully joined the Dream Corps of the CIA Remote Viewing Project, Dreamgate."

"NO YOU BASTARDS! LET ME OUT OF HERE!"

Code BLUE CODE BLUE WE HAVE A LIVE ONE!

I run out of the room. I am in a huge underground base in a mountain. I run down a catwalk. I don't know where I am going. I have to get the fuck out of there. I feel needle in my back. I collapse to the floor.

I wake up strapped to a table in an operating room.

"You have already betrayed your friends. Oh, yes, you fool. You signed on the dotted line when you slept, you idiot. Don't remember, do you? Too bad your recall sucks."

'NO YOU'RE A LYING FUCK."

THey show me a video of me signing a document in blood in an interrogation room.

"That's not me, you asshole, that's some CGI actor or something."

SILENCE. And now, we torture you for your insolence. Release the straps.

I try to get up. I can't move.

You have been given a paralyzing anesthetic. You can't move for the next forty-five minutes. Yet, you will feel all the pain and torment as we slice you open, and examine what makes you tick.

I see in the reflection of the crazy doctor's eye, a jaguar face. I am confused.

They slice me open, and I scream. I feel no pain. They remove my guts, and play catch with my liver. I realize it must be a dream. I feel a dark fire burning inside me.

I roar, and stand up from the table.

CODE RED CODE RED CODE RED MAN YOUR BATTLE STATIONS. DREAMER IS MANIFESTING BEAST SELF.

I grab the doctor, and bite his head off, then spit it on the floor. The others back away.

WHO ELSE WANTS THEIR FUCKING DREAMS HAUNTED FOR ETERNITY?

I shoot claws at all their eyes, then fly through many floors until I get outside the mountain.

Goddamned spooks in jet packs are awaiting me.

I call out to Koomo, as the RV Templars hit me with a knock out drug. Fuck yo tranq, beeyotch! This is MY DREAM!

I begin to fall. Michael catches me. Man-bats appear out of portals, and we battle the Templars.

I soon see my friends from the first part of the dream come and join me. We kick ass.

Loaf runs through the mountain, affixing bombs to the pillars. He hands me the detonator. BOOM!

We fly back to the Moon, and rest.

I am driving down the freeway with no car at night. When I get to the turns, I go careening over the edge of a cliff, and fly back on to the freeway. I then realize I am dreaming.

I fly up into the sky. I notice I have a steering wheel in my hand. I toss it aside.

I look down at the beach. I see the reef clear as day, all the way to the seafloor though I am hundreds of feet in the air. It's beautiful. It suddenly goes dark.

I think: Who turned off the light on my head?

I try to turn the light back on, but it doesn't work.

Frustration wakes me.
