    1. Ahh! Ghost... Banshee.... Thing?

      by , 08-20-2010 at 02:26 AM
      So I tried to do a wild this at 5 am this morning. It didn't work, but at some point I was lying in bed and pinched my nose, and found out I was having a false awakening. So I sat up and wondered what would happen if I were to think about something bad... which turns out is a bad idea. My bed started to float and a ghost, thingy came and was "haunting" me.

      Eventually it went away, and I started walking around. Just sorta fading in and out of vividness. after a while, I tried to fly, but that didn't work. But it turns out I could jump super high. Then I woke...
    2. Night of rainbows!

      Triple Rainbow!
      I was watching a storm from my window. It actually was sunny outside, from this side of the house, but the front half of the house was experiencing a rainstorm. It was like the break in clouds was right over the house.

      The sunshower was producing a triple rainbow effect. All three rainbows were very brightly coloured, too, and quite vivid. I took pictures and recorded some video on my cellphone, so I could upload them to the net, later. I wanted to send it to the "double rainbow" guy, on youtube.

      More rainbows - Lucid - 1/5
      I chained back into a dream, lucid. I was on a very long stretch of straight highway and the end of the rainbow was beaming down right onto the road. It was extremely bright and vivid. I walked through the rainbow. It had two sensations. It was all misty, like water droplets, but it had a certain viscosity to it, too. I was slowed down as I walked through the rainbow. I woke up again.

    3. Inception "Totems"

      by , 08-19-2010 at 08:21 AM
      I came across a discussion about this, and I thought I'd put down some of my ideas for good "totems". First off, a "totem" is a device or personal affect that only the owner thoroughly understands that is used as a means of separating the dream world from the real one. I've used "totems" for years as a for of reality checking, only I referred to them as charms

      #1 - Rosary
      One I used myself was a rosary with a few specifics...
      • rose scented beads
      • a small hole drilled into every third bead
      • a pewter crucifix with a sterling silver dove for a hail holy queen bead
      • the 10th bead of the 4th decade was missing
      • the dove was attached with gold chain links - all the others were silver
      • INRI was inscribed upside-down on the cross


      #2 Matchbox Car
      Another one I used myself with fair success was a 1976 Metal Canary yellow jeep wrangler car with an angel wings decal on the hood.
      • It sat on it's axel wrong so it wobbled
      • it drifted to one side when pushed
      • had a specific model number on the bottom


      #3 Weighted Turtle
      The third one I used was a pewter turtle with a jade shell.
      • I was the only one who knew how it was weighted
      • Only I knew about the small heart etched on it's underside


      #4 Spoon
      • Ever seen a waitress check her reflection in a spoon? The concave side turns the reflection upside-down - if it's right-side-up, you're dreaming!


      #5 Marble
      • Flatten one edge of a marble. Be careful to do it not so it's obvious at plain sight, but that when the marble is gently rolled it will come to rest on it's own accord.

      Lions!

      I was in a jungle, its was nice and warm and very sunny. I started to notice there were lions everywhere! There were hundreds everywhere I looked. None were too bothered with me but when I got too close sometimes they stood up. I was trying to get away but everywhere I went there were just more! I tried climbing up some palm trees that had enough angle for me to get up but I kept slipping.


      Pack of Unicorns

      I was in Wellington and I hopped on a bus with some mates. They were going to Masterton and I couldnt go because of something. I was deep in conversation with them when I noticed I had forgotten to get off and was all the way in Masterton. Suddenly they hopped off and I was alone on the bus. I went to the driver and told him the story. I didnt have any money and so on. I had my eftpos card in my pocket but didnt want him to see it as I didnt want to pay for the trip. I hopped off in the country and there were a few other cars. A middle aged couple approached me and said they were driving over to Welly later that night an 9pm and said I could get a ride with them. I was happy to have that sorted but they did seem pretty dodgy. Then my dad came out of nowhere and me and him and a cute girl with short red hair hopped in a van, the girl was driving. I noticed a unicorn in a field we drove past and then saw more. There must have been about 5-8 in the paddock. I thought this was pretty odd and RC'd. My pinky didnt pop straight out as usual but with a little effort it emerged between my fingers. I was dreaming! I started rubbing my hands together, it felt so real! I told my dad I was dreaming and told him to rub his hands together too. I was just starting to think about making a portal to the moon when the dream faded away.


      Escape with the Midget

      I was with a midget, for some reason we were prisoners in some sort of royal castle. The head man of the castle had organised for us to escape. I dont remember how we got out of our cell but I remember sneaking around and seeing the main guys wife who didnt want us to escape. She saw us and sent her guards. We ran into a realy big room and out a huge door into the courtyard. There were heaps of guards chasing us. I was ahead and was going to run out away from the castle when the midget yelled out to go into the church. I didnt think it was a very good idea but opened the huge wooden door to the church. Just as this happened it went like a movie to a shot of the midget who was quite a bit behind me. The guards were still quite a way behind him. They shot some wierd thing at him. It looked kinda like the head of a fork and when it flew through the air you could see the way it came like bullets in the matrix. When it hit him he couldnt move. Then all of a sudden he burst free and started running again. It went slow motion and I could see heaps of the things flying by and barely missing him. He made it into the church and I started locking the door. There were like 5 locks and I did them all up. The midget ran into a small midget sized door. I tried to follow him but I got stuck in the small door. I knew I couldnt make it and woke up

    5. Would have been awsome to call it "A woman and a bitch" but the dog was male

      by , 08-19-2010 at 04:03 AM
      19-08-10 I woke up in my bed, after a few jolted and fragmented dreams like mentioned before. But this time it was different. I felt the same tingly sensation all over my body that I remember from my first WILD, I quickly started loosing control as everything was dark and there was nothing to see. I shouted “Woow wow, get back here” did a little jump and reached out for the ground while spinning. I mentally said to myself I need light, I needed to see and start using my senses in order to stabilise the dream. I couldn't keep the lights switched on they kept turning off. After a while the light stabilised a bit and I started focusing on the mess on my floor, loads of colours and clothes everywhere (like it is in real life) except there was an old pair of shoes I no longer posses (now I know where to look if I should be fortunate enough to have another Lucid before the end of August ^^). I decided though that the idea of cleaning my room in a lucid dream was a bit of a waste so I walked into the hallway remembering now to smell, touch and try and look around. ARGH damn lights, what good is it to be mentally able to turn them on/off if they won't stay on!!! I started loosing the tingling sensation in my body and was afraid I was about to wake up, so I did a quick check and reached out with my hand and made an empty Coke bottle fly into it.. Telekinesis, check.. still dreaming. I walked to my coffee table, that admittedly was slightly in the wrong place and made sure I caressed it and felt out for the edges and corners (something I reminded myself about when awake, at work considering writing a small explanation on Schemata, from an old presentation I have lying around). In the lounge it was dawn although it had been dark night in my sleeping room (didn't think anything of it, the DAMN DAMN lights were still way too dim!!). I tried to remember the goals I had set myself and these needed DCs so I decided to take to the streets, also knowing there would be street lights. I flew out my kitchen window (which has now become my new favourite exit place need to remember to turn it into a portal at some point). Hovered around and looked in the same direction, as where the woman appeared the last time I tried to ask a DC my dream name. There were no people, but a simply fantastic (although small) Siberian husky came down the street towards me. I landed and sat on the ground calling out “come here boy” in a friendly tone and as he came I started cuddling him behind the ears. I was aware that the visual and tactile sensations of cuddling this dog was helping me stabilise the dream, and besides the dog loved it (I will get back to just how much in a bit ^^). I looked over his shoulder and I saw that woman's back as she turned a corner. “stop” I shouted, and took off flying after her, the dog followed. I thought to myself I could grab a quick dream flirt ^^. As I came around the corner I saw a door leading slightly downwards, the type of door that leads to a corridor under the building(s) commonly associated with the university structures. I flew through it, the dog followed (didn't pay any attention to the dog's control ability till after having booted up the PC to write down the dream). As I flew through these corridors I several times flew through doors, which I have never been able to before (the dog followed). And midway through I noticed the dog jumping up and down, either he wanted more attention or thought it was as fun a game as I did. Now that I was confident in my abilities to fly through matter, although not being able to see through, I flew up through the walls at an angle and the dog followed until I reached a café of sorts. The dog disappeared, but the woman was queuing up to get seated. The café had a professional feel to it and the surrounding buildings in quality seemed governmental. I said “hi” to which she replied “hi and goodbye” which I found very odd, although I didn't treat her like other DCs in the past, to whom I would say “youre in my head, this is my dream”. I wanted to talk to her and start the whole flirting plan I had in mind, but she kept refusing me although she was smiling while walking away. I must have asked her why she refused me, as she said something like “I don't know it just seemed rude since I wasn't going to get anything to eat” I asked “why is that?” and she seemed stunned by the question and as she was about to answer... I woke up >.<

    6. Potential Dream Sharing with my wife.

      Potential Dream Sharing with my wife. (MILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      A more decent night. Hopefully my subconscious is digesting all the new changes in my professional waking life. One fragment and two lucids.

      Third:

      I woke up from my previous lucid. It was not as awesome so I wanted other one. I promised to myself that I was going to MILD and have a decent lucid. I focused on a forest while falling asleep.

      I was with a female DC. She was good looking and I knew she liked me, however, I felt we were just friends. We were indoors and we were going downstairs to some place. This place, was in the middle of nowhere, within a big forest. She was tired so I grabbed her like a "Just Married" couple going to the hotel. I waked faster to get to the place. Suddenly, she was waking next to me and I was surprised.

      We got to a place, now, I was with my wife instead. We were going to a group of meditation and psychics. There was a guy with us and he was talking about what was going to take place. He told me we would start to see how my yoga was. It was not necessary to be qualified, but it was like some extra credit for something. We approached a room and he opened the door. There were three female DC and two male DC stretching. I observed they had blue yoga mats. My wife said that she know nothing about Yoga and she was not doing it. She left and I entered with the DC.

      I was streaching when I noticed that I was on my underwear. I started to be worried about that, everybody else wore yuga suits. However, I noticed that the professor did not wear underwear. I saw his penis. I found that weird and I decided to RC.


      My hands were blurry and I felt my dream fading. I though, "No way. That never happens to me" I exited that class and saw a small window. I knew if I started to fly my dream would become stable. I started to fly and I saw that my wife (who has been waiting outside the whole time) grabbed my foot and I was just floating. My dream was not stable, so I needed to fly away. I flew with my wife holding my foot. She was scared and I dropped her off outside a garden outside this building.

      I was in the air, with my dream fully stable. I could see the Skyscrapers several feet away. It was dawn and it was beautiful. The sky was clear and I could feel the wind blowing my face. I felt very calm. I was happy because I finally had a decent dream to enjoy and slow down my waking craziness. I was going to fly away, however, my wife did not vanish and I found that odd.

      I landed next to her and I asked if she knew where we were. She did not act dumb like a regular dream character. I told her we were in a dream. She replied that it was awesome, that finally she became lucid. I told her she did and I was very happy. I told her, "You are not used to this kind of gravity. If you feel you are going to wake up, tell yourself to remember this dream."

      I remembered that my students on the MILD classes did not have much of a success with the lucid task I ordered, so I wanted to do it as example for next week. I decided to take flight and fly around the forest. I flew around the trees. I did not see that many trees, it was a pretty deserted forest. I flew over the threes and then, around the trees. I decided to land as the task was done. My wife was alone queuing. She still did not vanish like a regular DC, she stood in the same place where she was.

      I flew back to my wife. She was looking around surprised. I rose my hand and aimed to a tree. Next to the tree a small white light appeared. My wife asked me, "Can I destroy that tree with my fist?" I replied, "If you believe, you can... see this" I rose my hand and used telekinesis on one tree. The land started to vibrate and I pulled the whole tree out of the ground. I was doing this with my mind. I could see how some dirt came off the tree. I saw the roots of the tree, perfect roots like real ones. I banished the tree into oblivion in the middle of the air.

      My wife stopped next to a tree. She rose her fist and hit it. Half of the tree broke and fell to the ground. I saw how several leaves and branches flew in all directions. My wife was very happy. I started to feel I was going to wake, I tried to spin but I woke up.

      I had a FA in my room. My wife was saying, "Do not hit me, do not hit me" I woke her up and told her it was not me. She replied, "Yes, you were lucid!" I told her it was my DC, that I awoke after she broke the tree. I woke up for real.

      My wife never recalls dreams and she was not able to recall this one. Her DC acted and thinked with a lot of sense, never seen a DC acting and thinking that well. My wife was able to talk about stuff from waking, which means more evidence that she might had a lucid dream share with me.

      Missed Dream Signs:
      - None.

      Notice dream Signs:
      - The yoga professor did not wear underwear.

      Reality Check Performed:
      - Hand check.

      Bully attack - 2nd Flight to the moon canceled by my cat (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      A more decent night. Hopefully my subconscious is digesting all the new changes in my professional waking life. One fragment and two lucids.

      Second:

      I was like in a school. I was going to attend a class about meditation and chakras. I was waiting outside and I was eating a dish of meat and potatoes made in the slow cooker. A 50 years old DC approached at me, entered the class and adviced me to join the class because it was about to start. I felt the class was going to be empty, as I saw no one joining it. I entered the class with my dish and found out that the class was crowed. I saw a lot DC that were copies of other classroom mates that I had at junior school.

      One of the bullies critiqued my food and start laughing at me. I ignored the bully and he good mad. I did not feel threatened so I kept eating. He threw a punch towards me, however, I rose my arm and stopped his punch without even blinking. I hit him back and he got even more mad so he attacked a weaker DC.

      He grabbed the DC on his legs and he started to spin. I felt he was trying to throw him at me, and he did. The dream was now in slow motion, more like Matrix effect. I saw the thrown guy coming at me. I avoided him Matrix style and he crushed with other folks. The dream banished and the scenery changed.

      I was outdoors and I knew I was dreaming. I was in a big plaza and I saw a few DC. They were odd looking but they ignored me. I wanted to do a RC to make sure it was a dream, my hands looked OK, a little blurry but OK. I jumped about 10-12 feet easily.

      I felt the dream was stable so I decided to fly to the moon and visit Nomad. As I was flying to the moon, I felt like something furry was moving around my legs. I wondered what was going on and my dream started to fade. I had double conscious for a few seconds until I woke up.
      My cat was purring around my legs asking for some love.

      Missed Dream Signs:
      - Junior school's classmates.
      - The Matrix effect.

      Noticed Dream Signs:
      - None.

      Reality Check Performed:
      - None. Turned lucid without reason.

    8. My First False Awakening and my 3rd lucid! And my other dreams..

      by , 08-18-2010 at 11:01 PM (Sydney's Nightly Adventures)
      I am so excited to share this with you, even though it was really short. :/ But here's my 3rd lucid: *giggle*

      Now, before the series of dreams and then my FA, I had woken up and decided to WBTB. I just went to the bathroom though. Then I laid back down, and tried to think of nothing. My mind kept wandering off but I tried to keep as many thoughts as I could out of my head. It kept going on like this until I fell asleep I think, when I had the dreams. At the end of the dream before my FA, I saw an iPad that didn't look like one far away. I looked closer and it had the cover of my phone around it. It was a red cover. So I sorta thought to myself. "Hmm..this is weird.. do you think maybe i could be dreaming?" Then the dream ended. That's when I had the FA.

      ONCE AGAIN, this dream was hardly controllable. I really didn't feel like I was in it, I just remember feeling the RC. All of my LDs so far i have had little controllability (if that's a word) and little feelingness.

      ANYWAYS...

      I woke up in my bed, It was really dark except for the dim light on in the bathroom. Like I was taught, I did a reality check to (just in case it did happen) catch a false awakening. As soon as I plugged my nose and breathed in I thought, "Holy crap I'm dreaming! I've never had an FA before!" After this, for some reason I started daydreaming about Taylor Lautner with blonde hair, lol. And once again, I was scared that I would see something scary around the corner, or that something would pop up freaky, or that I would be just plain afraid. I don't know why. I guess it's just because anything can happen in a dream. And to my bad luck, my alarm rang. I woke up with a start. I was happy that I got lucid for the third time, but not happy it ended so quickly. stupid alarm!

      I'll post the dreams I had last night in the "MILD Class Dream Entries" post. Thank you for reading DV members!

    9. Empty fish tanks, six-legged insect/goats, and a zombie, humanoid creature we wanted to develop

      by , 08-18-2010 at 07:49 PM (Ruesia's Dream Journal)
      I was standing in an older structure, indoors I think, and there was a fish tank, about 20 gallons. There were dark rocks at the bottom and lots of dark plants. There were two fish. A red fish with white stripes and a black fish with smaller, yellowed-white stripes. They were swimming and I was talking to them, but I can't remember what I was saying.

      Suddenly, another, smaller tank appeared. The fish were suddenly in this 2nd tank but the water was VERY low. They were struggling against the plants and rocks at the bottom of the tank. I ran to an outside faucet on the wall and filled up a plastic, fast-food cup with water. I poured it into the tank, but when I did so, it overfilled the tank (even though it was at least a 15 gallon tank). The fish were floating at the top of the tank and almost slipped out. I dipped the cup into the water and took out a cup full and poured it into the 1st tank, which suddenly was empty and the red fish was in there. The water was suddenly carbonated and was fizzing and the fish was squirming uncomfortably. I ran the faucet again and filled up the cup and poured it into the tank and the fish was ok. Both tanks had enough water and I just left it.

      At certain points, I was a fish and was in the water too, but otherwise I was a human watching the tanks.

      Suddenly, I was walking along a sandy path beside a fenced area. The fence had wooden posts and three wooden slats with wire covering them. I was on the outside walking with a stranger, who sometimes was my fiance but other times was an older man or woman.

      We were walking to look at some rare species. The fence was lined with eucalyptus trees, and it was extremely hot and beyond the trees was dead grass over rolling hills that went on for miles, but in my mind, the hills dipped down and there could have been a mountain or some barrier not too far off.

      We got down to the end of the fenced area, where a fence ran the width of the area and another 'pasture' began on the other side. There was a gate here on the closer side. Inside, were about 10 six-legged half insect/half goat creatures. They had a brown, exoskeleton and they were trying to push over sapplings to get in the shade. I remember pulling out some sapplings and throwing it over the fence to them for shade. They had insect like heads and four legs which they stood on and then two front 'arms' that had pinscers at the end like a praying mantis.

      The other person, a stranger, was telling me about how rare they were and how they were trying to revive the species. I was very disturbed by the little creatures.

      We continued to walk and in the other field, which had less trees in it, was what looked like a man. He was barely clothed, but I didn't notice that. He was maybe 30, VERY skinny, and had stringy, oily, yellowish hair shoulder length. He had PALE skin, so very white, but blotched with dirt and sand, and his eyes were puffy and red. His eyes were yellow and his eyelids and cheeks were brilliantly red in contrast to his skin. Even the whites of his eyes were reddened.

      I noticed I was now inside the fence, although not sure how, and that he was glaring at us. The stranger told me to stay away, he was dangerous, but then we noticed one of the six-legged creatures (we'll call it insectus) was in the field 'grazing' in the corner. The stranger was alarmed, and the humanoid (we'll call them Karjas) noticed the creature too.

      The stranger tried to shoo the insectus out of the gate (there was a green, metal pipe gate suddenly) but I turned and noticed a 'pack' of Karjas running our way from across the field. I somehow 'knew' that the Karjas and Insectus were 'at war' and that they were disgusted that an insectus was in their field.

      I turned and started running, but I was sluggish and barely leapt through a slat in the green gate before they enveloped the insectus.

      I 'awoke' and time had passed. Lots of time. I 'knew' the Insectus race had been killed off and the Karjas had taken over. The fences were down and there were 'structures' what looked to be really tall, lopsided wooden house-like dwellings, where the eucalyptus trees had been. The Karjas had grown in size and there were hundreds of them. They were not tall white, some were black, but an ashen black, with greyed short hair. There were also olive skinned ones that looked the most human. These were usually children. They were clearly not human, due to their skin and their red eyes. They wore neutral colored, tattered clothing and were 'migrating' it appeared, toward the currently uninhabited dwellings.

      I was suddenly in a 'secure' area about two hundred feet away, with real humans in a group, and the Stranger was talking to a group of Karja women seated on benches. The women were wearing office attire, suits or slacks, and all appeared human. The stranger was saying that these Karjas had been living amongst humans, working with them and living with them, to study us. These would be 'spared', the stranger indicated.

      I was sitting with the Karjas on the benches (made of earth at the time) with grass on them, and there were three rows. On either side the wooden fence appeared again, forming an aisleway, but there was no wire, just one single wooden rail that was made of what appeared to be natural, thick (1-2 inch) branches, not manufactured wood.

      Suddenly, there was dust and beyond the benches the aisleway was sandy and Karjas were bursting through the fence onto the aisleway and then beyond into the new fences area. However, on the other side of the aiselway the open space extended only a few feet where there was a very TALL, impassable fence bordered by thick, tall, dried brush that looked like sugar cane almost.

      I watched the Karja's race across the aisleway into the new area and 'understood' that it was a game of sorts. They were being willed to make it to the new area, like a challenge. I watched the Karjas run through the fence on the second side. They didn't stop or bend for the one rail. They just ran through it like it wasn't there. I suddenly realized it was some sort of forcefield because the Karjas were stuck on the other side and couldn't pass back into the aisleway. For now, there were only young Karjas running through, about 12-15 years of age. Although, I saw other Karja, older and younger, coming from the fields.

      The atmosphere became more urgent as Karja realized they were trapped. A tall, viewing tower appeared where a real human watched the Karja being confined. I saw a younger boy, maybe 8 or 9, sitting in the sandy aisleway. He was laughing but distressed, and he appeared blind. His eyes were glassy and grey, with no pupil. He had large teeth. He was playing in the sand and he was indicating he needed help to cross. I knew that they were being confined, and I sat and couldn't help him be enslaved. He had dark hair and ashy, olive skin, and appeared to be a younger, more human-looking Karja.

      I was back with the Karja, assimiliated women on the benches. A little time had passed, because the Karja were now all standing on the other side of the fence, in the field again, but they were all wearing chestnut colored, leather harnesses on their chests. We somehow could control them. They were silent and stood in order. Younger men, maybe 20 or 30, stood in front and their skin looked more normal and their hair was brown. But their eyes were still red.

      The stranger was there, and indicated we had enslaved the 'zombies'. They weren't really zombies, but they appeared to be not-living, it was true.

      The assimilated Karja women were sitting and were sharing their 'experience' as humans. I was seated at the end of the benches, away from the stranger, and I noticed that there were women Karja that weren't wearing the leather harnesses. Their heads were shaved, and their eyes were darker and more human, but they looked old. One black woman sat beside me, and her head was shaved but very short, ashy grey hair was growing. Her skin was very ashen colored, almost a milky grey, not black.

      She was sitting in an olive green, canvas material shirt and beige pants of the same material. She had no shoes. A young girl, maybe 17, was sitting on the middle bench. She was talking to the older, black Karja. She was wearing a pink tank top and her hair was brown. She looked very tired. She was irritable. She was telling us how the humans had been asking her about men she wanted. About how they had given her a home to live in and were selected mates for her to reproduce with to create a superior race. She said it was 'chaos'. She was very upset, because she wasn't free, but because she was the most human looking Karja, she was being used to breed. The men were being used for labor and the women who could reproduce were bred with human men. But the humans tried to make it seem comfortable by trying to get their 'type' of man and making the home comfortable.

      I woke up then, thinking how utterly horrifying it was we were breeding these creatures.

    10. First Attempt = Success

      by , 08-18-2010 at 07:27 PM
      This was my first real "attempt" at lucidity. I have been lucid before, and have exerted a large amount of control as well. I additionally have read about all the sorts of methods, but really dislike anything that requires me to wake up. I additionally have never really kept a dream journal.

      So I am walking out of the Barnes and Noble's bookstore near my house (which I went to Thursday), and I notice that my car is totally messed up. All the doors are open and I notice that the roof is slanted and the car is really just screwed up. At this point my thought process is totally wacked and I just realize that I am dreaming. I start to lose control and the dream starts to fade. I spin, and come back. I take it and drive to the Chick-fil-a that is near the bookstore. I get out and meet my friends coming out of the store. Then I look behind me and notice a guy getting back into my car (which was unlocked) and I grab my keys and try to lock it as fast as I can. He is locked out. He starts to come towards me and then my not very intimidating friend intimidates the guy into leaving me alone. I think I recall later getting into a knife fight with the guy.
      Next part of the dream I am in a small town near Waco TX, but I think I am in Denton/Krum, TX (which is 3 hours North or more). I get on my phone for google maps and search an address. A large green arrow comes down and points to the house next to me, but I am afraid to knock. I remember having my Corolla and stuff.

    11. 17 to 19 August - 6 dreams per night

      by , 08-18-2010 at 06:19 PM (Lucid-schizo-dreamer)
      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Night one (17/08/10):
      I'm on the phone with my mother, an earthquake stikes. It gets really bad, my house is shaking a lot and I think I might die, but miraculously, there's no damage to the building whatsoever. We talk about it for some time on the phone and the feeling of having survived is incredible.
      Then I'm on some island with a group, hikking on a volcano side. Suddendly it shows signs that it will erupt and we try to get the hell out of there. Then it gets blurred.
      Then I'm wandering on a shopping center -
      I get lucid, I think about the future and future lives and I'm carried into a new dream in the future.
      I'm orbiting the earth on a ship, seeing the planet through a window. Someone by my side tells me that the graphics on the screen (some orange areas overlapping the poles) are sites where the atmosphere is in serious state of degradation and will soon disrupt. I feel his worry and want to know more but it ends there.

      Not lucid anymore, I'm now helping some young people renewing a house they occupied, when the police comes to arrest us. They offer no resistance but I hide and run away. Then I start being chased and I use my ability to fly to get out of there. But there's this guy, not wearing a police uniform, and he can also fly! I think "shit" and he soon gets to me. Strangely enough, when he gets me, I feel extremely attracted to him, I seduce him and I kiss him. He offers no resistance and it gets hot.

      Night two (17/08/10):
      I recall being on a city, on the subway, but no details.
      Then I'm on a train, my boyfriend is there with me, along with other people. We need to get out at a certain station and I have my bags ready. Unfortunately my boyfriend forgot to pack and all his stuff is still in the sleeping cabine. When we reach destination he just gets out and I'm left behind packing his stuff. I feel upset but decide to get out on next station and come back to meet him.
      Then I'm on a public pool or aquatic park. Lots of people, lots of fun, but I'm just watching from this platform/balcony and passing by.
      Apparently I'm again with my friends from the train or whatever. We're walking a deserted area, when some strange aircraft flies over and drops ahead some kind of gadget - looks like a missile. One of the guys goes to see what it is and takes a little box containing a little insect-like spy robot from the thing. As a group of agents/militaries approach the place, we try to get out of their way and watch what's going on. They see us but realize we have no clue what's going on, so they just take the stuff with them and go away.
      Later I'm again with these friends on some mountain with view to the ocean or a lake. We are in a kind of gathering, with a guru, everybody sitting on a circle on pillows. But it seems to be quite a silly thing what is going on, so one of the guys comes to me and suggests that we go do something else. We go downhill to the water and I realise I'm also very attracted to him. For some reason there's a point on the dream in which I start to sing "Mi Chico Latino" from Geri Hallywell (go figure, maybe the guy was latino, but I didn't notice). He dives on the water, clothes and all and I'm feeling quite happy, almost like a teenager in love.
      Maybe because our other friend kept the tiny robot he had stolen, the camp is attacked by agents - bombs exploding everywhere. But we are by the water and we hide behind a boat.


      Night three (18/08/10):
      It started with the classical dream of zombie's attack. I came in contact with some kind of "alien" creature that was "infecting" people to become zombies at his service. He saw that I saw and he chased me. He could send laser-like rays through his eyes and he managed to burn me a little. I almost died but escaped.
      Then I tried to warn everybody, but the zombie people looked entirely normal so they were already on the subways and on the streets and they spread exponentially. Soon after it was impossible to be on the streets because they were everywhere. Don't remember what happened then, maybe I just got tired of the dream and moved on.
      In another dream I was again with some anonymous group of people. We were outside, I think there was a wall behind us and I was feeling frisky. I started flirting with a guy and he wasn't even interesting. He offered some resistance so I ended up playing alone, if you know what I mean.
      So I found myself in a house. I remember being on a balcony and realising I was in some foreign country.
      I walked around visiting the place but not really sure of where I was. I had a plane in 3 hours to return home so I needed to go back and get my bag from the house, but I saw this Zara shop (of clothes) and fell in love with a red dress for only 6 EUR! I bought it with debit card and realized that the people on the store were speaking spanish. When they realised I was portuguese they started talking to me trying to convince me to register for some kind of event. I told them I was just departing.
      Then I had another dream where I was watching a conversation between two people that I know, they were talking about having some money to spend and I approached them with a concrete suggestion of how to apply that money (something that I'm actually organizing in my wake life). We were standing on the lawn in front of a house and all of a sudden there was an explosion and all the glass, wood, concrete, was flying in our direction. Everything was in slow motion, I threw myself on the floor but was aware that I would be hit by some of those debris. Althoug I wasn't fully lucid, I was kind of aware it was a dream, so it was interesting to think about how it would hurt me, but didn't feel afraid.


      What I found most interesting in these dreams is that I had the feeling that some of the DCs were actually dreamers sharing the dream with me. The guy that was chasing me through the air, the guy I flierted with, the guy who stole the robot and the guy that invited me to the water, they all had something more than regular DCs, they left an impression on me that they were actual people.

    12. Lucid Dream #3

      by , 08-18-2010 at 05:48 PM (Warbenifit156's Lucid Dreaming Adventures)
      Lucidity: 6/10
      Vividness: 7/10
      Length: ~8 Min.

      OK, I can't remember much of this one. But I know that it was really long.

      I remember when I became lucid though. And parts after that. I remember that I was a pirate and we landed on an Island, it was very big and was almost completely covered in water.

      For some reason I was in a castle and there were three other people with me, I followed them for a minute and then they went through a window and I looked down and when I did it was like 30Ft. down, then I became lucid. When I did, I got the idea of just floating down there. And when I looked down there again there was some sort of wall there. But I kinda floated by it and landed safely. When I walked towards those guys that I saw. Some hot broad was like flashing at me and she wanted me to take her for a ride (sex). But I just ignored her and walked away. Then I found a tree that was all weird and I ran towards it and I started to fly, it was really cool. Then people were walking towards me and saying. "He did it, he settled a tree. My boy, you deserve a promotion." Or something like that. Then I was trying to be Spider-Man by shooting webs out of my wrists, but it kept shooting out all over the place. And for some reason I had a lazy eye like in real life. That's how used to it I am. So I finally gave it up after trying for like 3 minutes and just followed some people that I saw. The next thing I knew I was walking in a big hall way and some guy was forcing me to go down the hall way. When I did I saw three girls in front of me and they were strip dancing. And below them was some guy that I can't recall very well. And to my left was a door. I went in the door and there was a bath tub in the room. I was like "what the fuck. I'm leaving, or maybe I could stay a while." Some broad appeared out of nowhere and started to talk to me. She wanted to have sex with me. I didn't really want to, but if I don't wake up there's not a problem. I went out the door and picked up a hooker and she turned into a bottle? So I told the guy that was sitting there that I would take this one and he could take the other two. He was like "OK." After I went inside I put some of that stuff in my mouth. She said it was for oral sex. Then I looked away and looked back and guess what, she disappeared. That's such a surprise (not really), but I tried to make her appear nothing happened. I tried making little spinner things in the bath tub and it worked, but a human being wont. That sucks. Anyways, I found her in a little Hamitic to my left and she was sleeping. So I woke her up and the next thing I knew I was walking around outside. I was in a small city, like Carson City. With a bunch of stores. So she said that Oral sex was illegal and I said "In this city or in my mind" or something like that. She didn't respond but for some reason my teeth were hurting a lot. I tried to ignore it but it didn't work. The next thing I knew was that I was trying to hump her doggy style and it didn't work. So we walked back and it got dark and I saw some broad that looked OK. So I asked her if she would give me a blow job and she said OK. So I told her to stay there and kept walking. Then it got pitch black and we looked in a store window, it kinda looked like a diner. That was completely lit up. And a bunch of guys in glowing blue masks looked at us. It was really scary. So we started to walk back again and when we made it to her store it was a relief. Then the sun started to come out and the dream faded into real life. This one is my favorite one so far. This just keeps getting better and better.

    13. Exploding a Little Girl's Head LD, Killer, Crash, Gymnast in the Air

      by , 08-18-2010 at 05:16 PM (Hopeless Wanderings)
      regular/lucid dreams: 8-18-10

      Exploding a Little Girl's Head LD(My first DEILD)

      I was starting to wake up, and that's when I realized I was lucid. I decided to look down at my hands just for the heck of it, and I had more fingers than I normally would(unlike in my last lucid, which I had less fngers). Everything seemed really clear and life-like, so I was scared that I would wake myself up but I think I'm getting better at controlling that, because I became very stable. I was in my house again, and decided to go outside and experiment and have some fun. As I was walking out across my lawn, I would jump in the air and see how high I could float. One of those times I decided to jump and then flap my arms and "swim" up and see how far I could go. I got to be about 4 or 5 stories up I think when I started heading back down. I'm not too good with flying yet. So then I saw these two sisters walking down the sidewalk, the older one(8? years old) pushing the younger one(around 4) in a stroller. I don't know why, but I wanted to make the younger one's head explode, just for a quick experiment before I went on to do something else. I focused on her head and imagined it exploding. I did this for awhile, and nothing happened except the little one started crying and the older one got really mad at me. I must have lost lucidity after this because I don't remember anything else.


      Killer

      I don't remember the first part of this too clearly, so these are just some details. I was at my house with some older people, I don't rememer who, when some woman turned evil and wanted to kill me. She said that I "had to die." I ran to my dad's room and went on his bed and had an explosive in my hand that you would light up and the flame would go down the string uptil it reached the bomb part. When she came in, I tried to throw it at her but missed, then somehow got into the garage and tried again, but missed again and this time set the garage on fire. I had to get out of there, but she stood in the way of the door. I somehow managed to get out and on the roof. I saw an elderly couple walking towards the house as if nothing had happened, so I jumped off the roof down to them and kept screaming "CALL 911! CALL 911 NOW!!" but they kept saying "What??" like they couldn't hear me. I even screaming their ears but they still couldn't hear me! Then I ran to the bushes behind my house to hide and called 911 myself.

      Then I met this other girl in the bushes who was wearing this huge puffy pink dress. I called her by what I thought was her name, but later found out that she changes her name 4 times a year, depending on the season. Anyways, we ran into the neighborhoods behind my house and it was around midnight or so. Every once in awhile, I would jump up really high in the air and go above the trees and houses just for the fun of it. At one time, one of my neighbors came out of her house and complained, but not at us. Apparently her car? or something was making noises and keeping her awake.

      I don't remember what happened after this, but eventually I was back at my house and the next day, the cop finally showed up. He was cautiously going into the bushes, where I told him I was hiding. I went outside to tell him that I was fine and he was super late but couldn't find him.



      Crash

      Me and Ali were planning on going on a road trip to this really pretty island thing in the middle of Colorado(which was only like 1 or 2 state away when I looked at the map, but in reality its more than that). She said she could get us free plane tickets(we took the car anyway, so what's the point?). So I told my parents and they said it was okay. We were going to take my sister's car and we were going to take my parents with us and drop them off somewhere on the way to Colorado. On the way to pick up Ali, my dad went the wrong way and went to my other friend's house instead(I don't know why, because its super easy to get to Ali's house, it's close by mine). I told him to turn right at the next stop sign but he turned left, and we went into this section where there were snow covered hills that looked like mountains and the road was really curvy and went up and down. It was like a smaller version of the roads you would see in Colorado, and I thought it was really cool. Anyway, we eventually finally somehow got my friend in the car, and started driving to CO. The roads were really dangerous now. They were up really high in the sky, and there were tons of cut-offs that you could take and go the wrong way on accident, really sharp turns, and all the cars were going like 100mph. Ali was driving and I was nervous for her because, well, the roads were terrible! We were approaching a tight curve when two cars in front of us crashed into each other. Time seemed to stop, and everything was going really really slowly. The cars were just in front of us now, and it seemed like there was no way to get around. Then my mom told us to back up, so somehow I helped as we slowly backed up as everything around us was frozen. This way, the cars could go off the side of the road(there weren't any walls in this section, which was weird because why wouldn't there be walls on the CURVED section??) and fall back to Earth.. and die. So we did just that and it looked like we were going to be safe..
      but then I woke up.


      Gymnast in the Air

      I was walking over this tall bridge/road thing when I saw an outdoor gymnasium. I looked down and saw some people down there practicing gymnastics. There was a billboard right by the bridge, and some girls from my school were on it, practicing(more like showing off) gymnastics on it with no safety ropes or anything. I don't know why, but I decided to go onto the billboard with them just to check it out. I somehow managed to get on it and saw more girls from my school doing gymnastics. One girl laid a balance beam(a floor one) down in mid air and started walking across it. I was really scared that she was going to fall off it, and I think I actually had to catch her and all the other girls at one point. They were hanging onto strings below me and I was holding them. It was really heavy but I had to hold on until I made it back to the bridge. I got back safely, but I think one of the girls died.
    14. Chocolate Cake in a Cafe

      by , 08-18-2010 at 04:07 PM
      Type: DILD.
      Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
      Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

      Notes:
      I dug up this entry from a slightly older dream journal.

      This was one of my first induced lucid dreams, and the first in which I ate food.

      I was at the end of a mall-like area, the flooring was tile and the entire room was rectangle-shaped, with a large square archway leading to the rest of the mall. I looked through the archway and saw stores, signs, and a pale blue bench in the middle of the aisle.

      At that moment, I realized I was dreaming and started freaking out, but I stayed calm enough to keep myself in the dream. I decided to start small and work on dream control, so I figured I'd start by eating something of my choice. I looked around for a few moments and then looked to the side of the room. There was now a small cafe there with a large glass display in the front, and the door was open. I walked inside and smelled coffee, chocolate, and something like band-aids. There were round glass tables with the curly legs, and polished wooden bar stools for sitting. Right before looking at one of the tables, I said, "there'll be a large piece of chocolate cake". When I looked at it, there was a white plate with the cake on it, as well as a fork beside it.

      I took some of the cake and ate it; it tasted like chocolate liqueur and Godiva chocolate, and the icing was very smooth.

    15. Aug 18 2010 - Lost

      by , 08-18-2010 at 03:52 PM (Mah Journal)
      I started off in a dream with KA. We were at our new school, and trying to figure out the way around. We were going to all these "sample classes" to see what it would be like.

      After our first few classes, we started to go home. My mom was there. There were a ton of buses. The building was mostly glass with grey beams. For some reason my mom told me to go on a different bus that apparently went down my street. Her and KA went on a different bus.

      I had no clue where the bus was going. I got off at some random stop in the middle of nowhere. It was a grey day outside. The grass around me was dark green. Sort of gloomy. I started to walk a bit along the road to where my house's road should be.

      I found myself at a little restaurant or plaza. I asked a nice young couple if they knew where my street was. They pointed at a direction. I followed it, and found a bus stop on that street. Then my mom was suddenly there, telling me how happy she was that I had found my way.

      In the next dreams, I was lucid. I was in a stark white room. It had a few big steps to use as benches, a metal rail in the middle of it, and some smaller steps on the side. I examined the place in my dream, noting that everything was white but the metal rail, the door hinges which were bronze or silver, and some of the doors which were an ugly pale flesh pink.

      I was with KA in this room. Somehow I was convinced that she might be a DC, so I proceeded to persuade her that this was a dream. I started telling her so, and after the first few tries she realized, in shock, that she was dreaming. I told her to plug her nose and breathe through it. Then she walked over to a window and looked at the city below; it was pretty, unlike one we'd ever seen.

      Then I started summoning people. Looking at the door in that white room, I said,
      "I summon... someone totally RANDOM!!!!" while throwing my hands toward it.

      BE, of all people, came through the door. I chuckled. He walked in hastily, looked at us, and mumbled something that included a lot of swearing. Me and KA laughed hysterically. I can't remember exactly what we did after that.

      Then, I was in the room again. It seemed like a day had passed, and this was actually a different dream in a different night. Me and KA were there again. I summoned a random person at the door again, and JU came out. I was glad. I talked to him, but I don't remember much of it. Afterwards, he said he was ashamed that he didn't realize who I was.

      Then, in the "third night", me and KA were walking around our old playground. We were trying out lucid powers. I remember one part where we were running, but I couldn't run fast enough with the dream gravity, and so I just put out my hands and started hovering forward. Then I decided to try out some magic, but I couldn't bring up any fireballs or elemental things. However, I could take out "guns"; if I made my hand into the shape of a pistol, and made a "pow!" sound while pretending to shoot it, it would actually shoot. I then used my air machine gun again, and invisible bullets shot my targets. Me and KA laughed about it. I was a little disappointed that I couldn't do anything cooler than guns though.


      In another dream, I was in the mafia, apparently as the hoe. We were in the building of some important person. They were carrying out their plan to assassinate him. They told me to go in and give him a gun that they gave me to distract him. I took it through the large glass door and put it on his desk.

      I heard a gun shot, and the bullet hit something beside the man. He cursed and called for security. I then decided to get on his good side and recommended that he ducked. As I saw security come down, they were just normal people dressed in beige clothes.

      "Don't security people usually have guns n' stuff?" I asked, feeling it was a sort of childish question.
      "No, no," the guy responded.
      "Well then, how are they gonna defend themselves at times like this?"

      But that dream faded there.

      In the next and final dream, I was playing MXL with a random person. We were just killing random stuff when some level guy popped into our game. He started saying that he wanted a rush and whatnot. I told him that it was boring to rush since there was nothing to do afterward. The guy scoffed at me and left.

      Then I was out of the game, and decided to make a new one, but I accidently made it private. I then realized my friend wouldn't be able to join, and so I quit that one, apologized, and made another public one. Can't remember what happened after that, and then it ended.

      Edit: suddenly remembered another fragment.

      I was looking through the fridge and saw my mom's bag of Maltesers. I was really hungry and I asked her if she wanted them since she hadn't eaten them forever. She told me not to eat them because she wanted them and I already had one. I shook my head in frustration. The only other thing to eat was a giant slab of dark chocolate, which was really nasty in large quantities. I closed the fridge door and looked for something else to eat.

      Notes:
      - Weird that I can't summon stuff like elements, but I can summon guns. I've never been a sci-fi fan, but a big fantasy fan.
