lucid

I had a lucid dream where I was in a world where souls go.

I had a dream guide or spirit guide acompanying me, I don't know which one. The wierd thing was, the guide stayed at my side in the form of a kite. The Kite was conscience and barely touching me. Floating just above my shoulder but touching me the whole time with it's kite tail.

I was taken to what looked like an island nation. I was shown a great city, the city was natural rock, mostly white marble. There was a great colliseum made of white marble and the inhabitants of the city were there attending a ceremony of sorts. I was not invited, instead I was shown a large flock of white oceanic birds (doves, but the size and strength of seagulls). When looking at the flock of birds, the "kite" told me not to stare too long at any one bird. So, of course I stared at one, and when I did, I could see that it was the repository of some ones life, it was a little person and I saw all the trials and difficulties he went through. The kite snapped me back, lending me energy by touching my shoulder with it's kite tail she warned me not to do that, and then I stared at another bird, I saw a girl in a relationship, she was unhappy and started doing heroine, ultimatly she took her own life, I was then snapped back by the kite. The kite told me we were supposed to see what was goinig on in the colliseum, and she "the kite" attempted to float me off the ground high enough to peer down into the open roofed marble colleseum, but I had used to much of her energy, and as such she chastised me for being so wastefull.

well I went to the cinema to see inception last night and it seemed to take a starring role in my dreams.

I don't remember a great deal of detail the dreams of last night. I was watching the fight in the hall of the hotel when the gravity has shifted and then something changed.I can only describe it as that all of a sudden everything changed from a dreamlike quality to being real. It's hard to explain, for about 60 seconds or so it became real in my head, my awareness had changed or something but the most frustrating thing is I don't remember anything else.

Does that 1 minute window mean I was lucid but just don't remember, or just a really weird quality I've never before had in my dreams?

More from the night of December 3, 2009

Note: Got this information through viewing a dream, in holographic form, from a dream that actually took place on August 11, 2010.

MoSh was on top of a hill with another man, there was a house under construction there and it appeared that MoSh was helping with that. It seemed like an odd time to be building a house, considering it was night time and there wasn't much in the way of light there. The man MoSh was with, who MoSh later identified as his father, got in a white pickup and drove off after explaining that he needed more materials for the house. That left MoSh standing there on the hill in the dark by himself. Apparently MoSh didn't feel like waiting for his father any longer, as he walked down the road in the opposite direction from where his father had gone. MoSh was walking towards a city, the many colored lights sparkled in the night. MoSh later identified this place as Edmonton. MoSh finally came to a bridge, there were a lot of people on the bridge engaged in various activities. Activities that didn't look like they belonged on a bridge… There was a sleeping bag beside the road, there were at least two people crammed into it and they were moaning and moving about a lot, it was enough that I was glad I didn't have to see any more of that. MoSh paid no attention to the sleeping bag, he walked right past a group of people playing Guitar Hero or something similar on a game system hooked up to a television, right there on the bridge. There were quite a few people gathered around and watching. MoSh headed a bit farther across the bridge, then he stopped and gazed out over the water.

I was beginning to wonder if MoSh was going to do anything else when he finally moved. He summoned a guitar and a guitar case, left the case open on the ground, then leaned against the railing and began playing. I still didn't see why we were viewing this dream, since MoSh playing guitar isn't anything unusual, but at least now I had music to enjoy while I waited for something to happen. While MoSh was playing, a few more people started to gather around and some tossed money into the open guitar case, giving MoSh tips to continue playing. A decent sized crowd had gathered when MoSh paused, summoned a PS2 and a flat screen television, popped a Guitar Hero disc in, and started it up. Now he was playing his guitar with the other instruments accompanying him via Guitar Hero.

The present day MoSh, on my right, said in his deep dream state using his powers come so easily. He wants a guitar, he summons a guitar. Wants a PS2, he summons it… he said he wished that worked in his normal dream state… I said it just takes time and practice. He said he needs to be lucid much more often before that's going to happen…

MoSh's audience didn't seem pleased that he was playing with the PS2 now, and several walked away muttering comments about the crap from the PS2 drowning out the good stuff… As the crowd thinned out I noticed Asuka was one of the people listening, she looked very happy, she was standing there smiling brightly at MoSh. MoSh continued playing, I'm not even sure if he noticed Asuka… He was just finishing a song when another woman came over and ejected Guitar Hero from MoSh's PS2. MoSh stopped playing and told her to give it back. She asked if it wasn't the public use one. MoSh said no, that was his. The public use one was down the bridge from him. The woman apologized and handed MoSh's disc back to him before heading down the bridge to the other PS2.

Asuka now walked over to MoSh and put her arms around him. He pulled away for a bit but then seemed to realize who it was and the two of them embraced… someone summoned a sleeping bag… they crawled into it for what I assumed was a session of which falls under the category of TMI in my opinion… but at least they were doing the deed in the privacy of the sleeping bag… I was looking out over the river at the city when they apparently finished what they were doing and got out of the sleeping bag… Asuka was saying she wanted to go meet more people, and see the biodome, she said Shawna wanted to get out and do that stuff, too, it wasn't fair to keep her locked away in MoSh's inner world all the time… MoSh said she is staying there for her own protection… Asuka said it would be safe. She opened a portal, MoSh and Asuka went through it.

The scene changed to MoSh's inner world, MoSh and Asuka went into the house quickly as I did a double take, forgetting for a moment that his house was considerably different back then than it is now. The scene followed MoSh, however, and soon we were in a bedroom of the house. Shawna was there and Asuka went right over to her and said they were going out for a while, Shawna seemed happy about that. She opened another portal, not paying any attention to MoSh as he tried to say something, then the three of them went through the portal…

On the other side I saw MoSh, Asuka, and Shawna in the biodome looking around. They both seemed to be enjoying the location. A woman flew over in front of MoSh and was talking to him, Asuka glanced over at that with a strange look on her face. The woman, who I identified as Pixie who lives in Silver's dream house, handed MoSh a bottle with some pills in it. MoSh was going to be wasted? Pixie said something about hijacking Santa's sleigh, then she dove into the koi pond with a big splash that completely soaked MoSh… and then MoSh was gone… and the scene changed.

MoSh was back on the bridge, surrounded by guitars. Someone ran past and grabbed a guitar case and ran off. MoSh wasn't happy about that and he chased after the man who had stolen it. MoSh lost the thief, but met up with another friend and they started looking for the guitar. No luck, although there were many strange things at the pawn shops they were checking… things such as dark energy crystals, various dark magical items, and just a slew of other unpleasant things… MoSh and his friend didn't notice those things. Having failed to find the guitar, MoSh's friend had to leave, so MoSh started wandering around again and ended up back at the job site where all of this started… his father was back, the white pickup was crashed into a tree… um… nice driving…

MoSh was telling his father that his guitar had been stolen. For some reason this got his father really pissed off! He was yelling at MoSh, calling him useless, making a total ass of himself, made me want to go punch him in the face… I was mutter to myself, "If this wasn't a hologram I'd rip you a new one, you fucking son of a bitch…" Instead, I followed MoSh away from his father a short distance, where it looked like his father's words had really affected him badly. MoSh dropped to his knees, his head in his hands, and was screaming incoherently. I couldn't help myself, I got down beside MoSh and tried to hug him… and of course my arms went right through the hologram… D'Oh! MoSh did seem to look at me momentarily, but I wasn't sure. His dad soon came over, still yelling shit… saying something about MoSh's friend Steve and them both being losers, falling silent only when a portal opened and Asuka came through looking seriously pissed.

"How dare you!" Asuka said loudly to MoSh's father, "You should be ashamed of yourself! That's your son, you fucking asshole! I'm going to have to teach you a lesson!"

I was staring at that, I didn't remember ever seeing Asuka like that, yelling and cursing like that… it was rather refreshing to see that instead of her getting kidnapped and needing rescuing… She didn't stop with words, either. She went over to MoSh's father and swept his feet from under him, knocking the surprised man to the ground. When he tried to get up, Asuka kicked him in the face, she kicked him in the gut, in the crotch, kicked him and kicked him… levitated rocks and threw those at him… she was beating on him endlessly, with everything she could levitate… then she finally turned away, she was holding her head and repeating over and over, "Not again… not again… not again…" MoSh was watching her, he looked over and saw his dad was on the ground, not moving, mutilated to the point where he was surely dead… MoSh didn't seem to know what to say, but Asuka spoke first. "Get away from me," she said, "It's not safe. I'm not safe to be around. Please get away, I don't know if I can stop it… so please get away… PLEASE! At this point MoSh disappeared, and then the dream was over… and I woke.

so i end up in some store for auto parts that sells tires i get into a car as people follow me i RC while in the car and try to stabilize but lose my focus thanks to the DC that was driving the car. so i end up not stabilizing and lose lucidity later woo!

8/14/10

Lately once again my dreams have just been coming real brief and basically nothing to document...But last night I had this weird dream and the scenery is what seem to stand out the most.

I was staying in a one level house there were shades on the window but no curtains and I was concerned about privacy.. I start looking around.. I notice children going in and out this home.. I look out the window to only see a dried up plain.. no other houses were in place. I also see high cliffs surrounding the left side of the house.
A woman tells me someone is coming by and she just told me to be calm about it.. suddenly police come around wanting to question everyone one by one. I didn't want to protest and I was scared ...reason I do not know...
The sun is shining in the house and the police are on this cliff just chatting.. so I try to put the shades down to block them from view.. One of the officers take one of the children and said he will bring him back..
I find myself not so worried about the officers .. the scenery seems to attract my attention. I go out the backdoor and to my left I see an opening.. tall trees on each side of the opening and what looked like one of those metal coverings ... ones that store owners pull down when locking their property for the night.
It was open and I start looking deeper into that direction.. I see a beach and dark water.. waves were lightly crashing up against the rocks..
..so I tell myself hmm what if the water rises it will consume the home.. I find myself outside of the house up a hill looking at this opening.. I look down at the house and see that it is built in some sort of ditch.. I don't know what to make of it...

Scene switches and I am in a car with a friend of mine and we were trying to get home.. I am driving but the car wheel kept changing as well as the brakes.. there were no windows on this car and strangers kept coming up to our car chatting.. I looked at my friend and told her we need to get out of here fast.
So a crowd starts to gather and I told her it is best that we ditch the car.. so we do and begin walking.. all of a sudden we see people running past us screaming telling us to run and get out the way...
I climb up the side of a building and see this huge ass wave as well as water following behind it just coming down the street.. I yell at my friend and tell her we need to seek shelter..
I start knocking on a door and this woman tells me she can't let us in because she is scared.. I tried to be as calm as possible explaining to her a wave was coming and if she could let us in.. she is scared and grabs hold of the locked gate on her door and says " I am sorry I can't I am scared to let you in.." I am getting impatient and told her to help us.. I begin to panic and even called her a bitch during the whole ordeal... this wave is coming closer ..I look above me and there is this metal balcony .. I was like " wow if this wave smacks into this balcony it will kill me immediately..
..I hold on to the woman's door and she sees this wave to and starts crying.. I started to brace myself holding onto the side of the building and the wave hit.. I felt the cold salty water hit me and even clog my ears which was weird..
..immediately the whole area is deep in water.. and I am still hanging on to the side of the building.. my friend was no where to be found.. and I can see all sorts of creatures moving under this dirty water..

That was all I could recall..

I was in my living room. I do the Finger Count RC. First thing I can think of doing is flying. I jumped toward the kitchen, aiming for the door, and faceplant into my tile floor. (no pain.., curious) I look up and see an old mac monitor
I'm unable to make out what's on it. I wake up here.

I dreamed I was at the grocery store. Oddly, it was outside with no walls or roof. Some friends(who I don't know) had a magic jacket. If you put it on, zipped it and unzipped it, you'd turn invisible for five minutes. So, I went around pranking people. Then, I became visible, and the cops showed up. I ran to my friend.
"I gotta go pee." I said. "Fine, hurry."he said. So I went in and took my merry time. I came out, and my friend was mad.
"I sold myself out to the police for you!"he said. "More are on the way!" So, I gave him the jacket. He turned invisible. All his other friends followed me. We got on a bus. No one was else was on...not even a bus driver.
"I'll drive." I said.
"No, I will this time." a friend said. So, we drove around the store. We turned the radio on. The song "Brain Stew" by Green Day(DS) came on. "Hold on." I said. We stopped. I got off and RCed. I was now lucid! I knew what I had to do. I used the lucid power of intent to summon some Mandalorian soldiers. I had one get on the bus to protect us, and the others went to raze the store and fight the cops.
I then awoke.

In the first dream I was doing something (but I can't remember what), and started to realize that it was odd (I think it was a FA, and I was getting up and doing something). I then realized that I might be dreaming, and so I did a RC to confirm, and I was lucid.

I can't remember what I did at first, but I ended up in some restaurant at the upstairs of some building, sort of like the dining area at TR. KA and some others were there. I decided to try to persuade KA that she was dreaming to see her reaction:

"KA, you're dreaming!"
"Oh, that's nice."
"No! I'm lucid! Wake up! You're in a dream!"
"Huh?"
"I said you're not in real life!"
"Um okay then?"

At this point the dream faded.

The next dream was mighty long. I was with summer camp again, but yet there were people from school and some teachers too. We were going on a long trip. We had arrived at some cabin. I had gotten bitten by a few mosquitos, and one of the bites really hurt. I asked the teachers/counsellors if they had afterbite, and they said they didn't, but maybe they could go get some from a nearby store. I told them that I would pay for it if they could get it for me.

Then we ended up on some bus or train.

Later I was at the "school" again, though it wasn't my school at all. I had apparently brought my little guitar, and I was searching frantically for it. Once I had found it I carried it off with me and into the building. It was a grey and white colored scheme, mostly concrete. I went to one of the top floors. There there was my big guitar, and I started fretting over it, and totally forgetting that I had the little guitar. Then there were some more guitars, one of them purple, and I admired it along with some other guys around it. Then we were apparently supposed to go to music class, but I wanted to play the purple guitar. So as another class entered the room and my class gone, I was still playing the purple guitar. When they had settled I started to rush off to the music room with my own big guitar and hoping that the music teacher wouldn't be angry at me for being late.

Then I briefly remember being on the highway with my grandmother in the car.

Then we arrived at a Nofrills and we bought some food.

After that I had a FA where I woke up and decided to make a milkshake with fruits in it. I poured some blackberries and some other random berries and grinded them with food processor. It turned out a bit watery, but only half of the glass was full, so I could add other things. I thought about how ice cream would make it thicker, but I didn't have any of that. Then I thought that maybe bananas would thicken it. We had two left, I thought. I remember grinding it up and seeing the peel lying in it, but that was the end of the dream.

August 14, 2010

Okay, so I used to lucid dream a while back, but then i got banned from DV (gay age restriction) so I stopped. So recently I saw Inception and it made me want to get back into it, bad. I really wanted to lucid dream again so I started doing regular reality checks daily. Last night, i stayed up pretty late and right before going to bed I decided to go on DV. I refreshed my mind of all the techniques and chose to try and FILD, but not with a WBTB. I layed down in my bed and got myself situated. I was very tired and ended up falling asleep immediately. So now that i told my whole life story, here's the dream.

It started out with me waking up in my bed next to my friend, David. It was pretty early in the morning and I just felt like something was weird. I looked at my hands and they were normal, so i also plugged my nose and tried to breat through it, I could. I get pretty excited but i controlled my excitement to try and keep the dream stable. It was kind of blurry so I acted like I was focusing a camera lens (a technique I created back in the day) and made everything crystal clear. Then, to make the dream more stable, i started spinning. (last night i read a DJ where they dream spun, idk what it was so i just spun lol) After spinning I woke up my friend and was like, Dude! We're in a dream! He woke up and was like, "stfu bro im sleeping" and i was like, "come here" and he followed me and so I jumped off my balcony in my house and landed on the ground without making a sound. He started flipping out. We went outside and he started just jumping around and floating doing a crap load of flips in the air and i was just flying around. I came down and the scene changed but I still kept my lucidity. I was walking around my neighborhood with my friends David, Tyler, and Kyle and we were discussing about how this feels like a shared dream and how I feel like they aren't just dream characters. We were having a very deep conversation inside of a dream lol. After we were done, I wanted to do something fun. I remembered one of my goals from a while ago which was to create a mall like dead rising and run around using stuff i find in the shops to kill the zombies. So I concentrated real hard and made the scene change into like an area outside of a mall. My family was there and was ready to go in and start kicking some ass. Then all of a sudden, a huuuuuugeee wave of fear came over and I started freaking out. I was afraid that if a zombie hit me, it would hurt, just like inception. I really didn't want to feel pain. So I ended up just sitting outside the mall. A couple of minutes later I heard my moms voice calling me from like a window above me. I look up and just before i look all the way up I woke up.

And there's the end. I totally regret not going into the mall. Also, I surprisingly had a lot more control then I used to have.

Well I don't really remember much

Anyways, I don't talk to my dad but I saw him in my dream and we were getting along really well and it felt so genuine and real until I like woke up and realized it was a dream.

I went back to sleep and then here is another fragment I was at the backyard of my moms friends house and I was running in my underwear (my dad wasn't in here anymore) and then I was flying upwards and I was like woohoo I already knew it was a dream and I was very lucid, the dream was very detailed, I was examining every single detail from left to right but it was kind of hard to keep it going, then I flew down into some persons house and there was a witch there.

Then like in this show called Charmed my favorite show she was trying to throw an energy ball while I was up in the air near the celling of the house and I yelled 'energy ball' and it orbed into my hand (these are charmed terms btw) and I threw it back at her and it didn't hit her so we kept this going for like 4 times until somehow I lost control and I flew out of the house onto the floor.

Next, I really have no clue what this was about, I don't know if I was lucid or not but I was trying to control the dream, it worked very well on many levels to say the least, far better than any other dream I've had so far. Basically it was me and my cousin sort of again, her name is Suzy, she was in one of my last dreams if you remember. I guess this was like some sequel to that dream, and like it was her friend Rat, and I remember we were in the mall, me and Rat, and like I kept trying to find her and yell for her but she wouldn't come so I said a spell from charmed (similar to the spell 'to call a lost witch') and from the top floor of the mall (the mall was really big and distorted in my dream) she vanished in like a wind spiral and came down in front of me, which I was like FUCK YEAH I CAN FINALLY DO SPELLS IN MY DREAMS (this is a BIG accomplishment for me it actually helps me control my dreams better and more detailed)

So then we were walking down this escaltor which was really weird because it was like going up and down at the same time, impossible architecture maybe? then we finally went up for one last time and went out, I don't know where we went but we were basically hiding behind these cars in a parking lot with a bunch of people trying to shoot at us (ala Inception) and I said another spell, something like make me invincible blah blah and it rhymed but not too well, it's funny in my dreams I have a much more fluid vocabulary and easier to make rhyming spells, anyways after I said it, Rat was already gone, and I was like haha I'm invincible you can't hurt me, so I was just walking while they were shooting at me, which was another big accomplishment because usually by this point I lose some sort of faith and they manage to shoot me and I wake up or something, and btw this was all at night time, and while i went all the way in the parking lot I reached Target, and it was already day time, and then I was looking for Tristan and Anthony (anthony was also in another one of my dreams if you read my first DJ), and then they were behind me and there was a bunch of teen gangster around me trying to shoot me, and they tried to shoot me as I was walking in target and it went through me and I was like haha missed me or something and we went in, and they were all surprised and I was like 'Tristan, your comin with me' 'you too Anthony' and I guess I was trying to gather up some sort of army or something to do Time Travel as far as I remember, and then as we were walking down the aisles Anthony asked me a question I forgot what, and I completely lost lucidity and woke up.

The end. Trust me this is all I could remember now it's been 3 hours, I know there was WAY WAY more fun stuff see you next in the next dream!

July 30, 2010

Synopsis: I'm told to find my friend who is lost in the dream world and help her. I feel like I enter my friends dream, and we have a crazy adventure! Water monsters and riding a manta ray! Lucid. Shared-dreaming theme.

Night Time Note: I had read a mantra before sleeping, but I forgot what the mantra was!

A Friend is Lost in the Dream
I'm in a large house with lots of old faces from my old job. I don't remember who told me this, or when, but I just remember being told:

Our friend is lost in the dream world. We have to go find her. Sam and Laura have already left into the dream to go looking for her.

I don't know who the friend is that's trapped in the dreamworld. And I couldn't remember who Laura was, I had trouble recalling the right face to the right name. But anyways.

Me and my old co-worker Megan get ready to enter the dreamworld. I decide to leave first. I make my way to the back porch. The porch is actually a staircase, that mysteriously stops in mid air. Below us is the dreamworld. My mother is sitting on the steps, I thought of her as a gatekeeper. A cat nearby seems to be a guardian.

Before leaping off the staircase, my mother tells me "The first person you'll find is Sam." I'm about to leap when my mom interrupts me again "Oh wait! Do you have Sam's number on your cell phone?" I go back inside and look for my cell phone, and I can't remember Sam's number for the life of me. Oh well.

I jump and become lucid! The scenery is beautiful and very bright and vivid. It's a forest. I fly quickly over the forest, remembering in my head my task. 'Find Sam, find Lori or Laura, then find the friend I'm supposed to help!'

I start to yell "Sam! Sam! Where are you!"

I fly into a small town. And right away I find Sam! She was in an old fashioned horse drawn carriage, being carried like a princess, of all places, through a boring apartment complex. Sam seems happy to see me and I quickly make room for myself in the carriage. Sam tells me she's already been dreaming for at least 45 minutes, and now she's going to wake up soon. She didn't find the friend we are supposed to help.

Excited I say "Sam! We're dreaming! Remember me when you wake up!"

She tells me I should be able to find this Lori/Laura. She gives me a big hug, and disappears. I assume she woke up.

I run through the neighborhood, avoiding random DCs by taking the back alleys. Eventually I come to a tall house that looks like something out of a fairy tale. Inside I finally find Lori/Laura. And the name and the face were completely wrong. This character was unstable, fuzzy, as the name and the face made no sense to me. I follow her outside.

But once outside she was completely different person. She was a 'name' and a 'face' I knew and recognized - Maggie. No one ever told me I would meet Maggie.

She asks me "Have you been looking for me?"

It doesn't even occur to me that this is the friend that I'm supposed to find and help! Still thinking I still have to find someone else, I tell Maggie "We should go!"

"You're right, come on!"

Maggie's World
(I remain with a light lucidity)
It didn't feel like it was my dream anymore. From the get go Maggie had me running! Someone is after her, who I don't know! It's a dream theme I know so well - I have a chase-dream tag.

"Come on! Hurry!"

Usually in my dreams I am on the run and my friends follow me. This time, my friend is on the run and I am simply following her blindly.

Maggie was a fast runner, one of the fastest "dream characters" I've met. I had trouble keeping up with her, flying was too slow, my legs were too slow. But Maggie would often look behind to make sure I was still there.

After running through several neighborhoods we find two bicycles. Oh perfect! Now we can really make some distance between us and these bad guys. But the bikes were rusty and crappy and we ditch them soon after.

I try to transform to make keeping up with Maggie easier, but it didn't help. Every now and then Maggie would run strange, like she has an injured leg. Then she would run normal, like there was no injury. We climbed fences, and made our way through a complex construction site with wires and pipes and giant boxes.

We snuck our way into a facility of some sort. All the while, Maggie is still leading the way. I'm not sure what this place is. But this seemed like a bad idea. So many walls, and corners, and doors. It's like a maze.

We hear something. . . is that. . . water? A giant wave of water was rushing towards us. If the wall of water wasn't bad enough, it was full of giant worm monsters that were made of water. The giant water monsters attack us! Damn! We need to get high, above this wave.

Just then, we see a giant manta ray flying gracefully, gulping the water with his giant mouth. Maggie has a most devious expression, lol, I just laugh at her crazy thought. We wait for the right moment and then we leap on top of the giant manta ray! Riding safely above the monstrous wave.

Woah! Riding the giant manta ray was wild! He was like a roller-coaster. A gliding roller-coaster! Both me and Maggie scream excitedly like little girls. At first I was crouched down, holding on tight. But when it became real fun, I stood up.

The manta ray swallows all the water and comes to a slow stop. We jump. We really need to get out of this crazy place.

"Come on! This way!"

Maggie leads the way again. We run through a supermarket that quickly transforms into a futuristic laboratory. Oh damn, the water is coming back. Maggie suddenly stops running, she has a pensive expression as if she's trying to think of something. No time to think!! I run right past her and down the hallway.

Bad move.

It was a dead end. Did Maggie know it was a dead end?

I turn around and the water monster has me cornered. The manta ray was drifting slowly towards the water, but he was flying real low. Where as the wall of water was towering high! Crap! The water monster comes crashing towards me! Scared, I hide in a closet that magically appeared for me.

Silence.

The closet was white. Just white. It would have been a void if it wasn't for the visible slits of the door. For a moment I wait for the water to seep in and flood the closet. But nothing happens!

I sigh deeply. Damn, I just ruined the dream didn't I? A lot of times if I leave the sight of a dream character, that dream character will disappear. I was afraid that this awesome "dream character" Maggie would disappear now. I sat there, waiting, any moment, I'll just wake up.

Then. . I hear footsteps splashing through a puddle of water. It's Maggie's footsteps. She runs up and down the corridor. Is she looking for me? I pop out of the closet. And there was Maggie waiting for me!

"Come on!" She leads the way again. Her legs are even faster now. I had to find ways to make my running path shorter than hers to keep up. We enter a warehouse. Maggie looks up at the crates floating above us. Good idea, if we can get up there we can safely get above the wave.

I press a button hoping to bring the crate down, instead the machine drops the crate and the entire thing smashes on the floor. "Oops..sorry!"

Maggie tries to find another way up there. Why don't we just fly? I try to transform again, and I try to fly up there, but I can't. I can barely make five feet off the ground. I hear footsteps. A large group of men surround us, their leader was an arab man in a suit. He had Sayids voice from the show Lost. Are these the bad guys Maggie has been running from?

Maggie tries to ignore their threats as she desperately cuts away at the rope with pocket knife. I'm not even sure what's that going to accomplish except - nothing! For the first time I seriously doubt Maggie's plan, what ever it is, will work.

I blast a fire ball at the leader! He's not impressed. "What are you doing in my warehouse? And why are you ruining it?"

So. . he's not after Maggie?

"Wait!" I said "We just want to leave this place. Can you please show us the exit and we'll leave you're warehouse alone?"

Maggie continues to cut away at the rope.

"Then, I will show you the way out." He presses a button and a door opens. Maggie reacts like a cat and bolts out the door. I just take my sweet time leaving. Once were outside, Maggie finally relaxes.

"I thought for sure he was lying about letting us out." She says

The man shakes his head and explains "I keep my promises." He turned out to be a really nice man. The next scene was vivid, but for some strange reason I have trouble recalling it. I think the man offers us two bicycles, but they were all rusty. Maggie complains that texas bikes don't rust. The man, a true sales man says "Ah, but do your bikes have big wheels like mine?"

I feel it's almost time, to wake up I mean.

I look about me. The scenery is gorgeous. Mountainous, green, ripe. Maggie talks to the man and laughs at herself for running away all this time. A lemon tree was growing next to us and I grab a fruit, quite lucid. It smelled so richly of lemon!

"I can't do it! I just can't do it! I know it's a dream but even then I still can't bite into this lemon!" My mouth waters at just the thought. Maggie laughs at me.

Quite happy that I left Maggie in a more peaceful and vivid dream, I say goodbye and wake up.



Sweeet

I don't remember how it started, but I was on a grass plane in biologigränd in umeå with my brother jimmy. It was night time. Suddenly I realised that I was dreaming somehow. It was kinda funny because at the same time I realised it, I therefore realised that Jimmy was only a DC and not real. However I asked him to give me the notepad which he was holding that was apparently my DJ. I wrote "dreaming" for fun on the last page to somehow strengthen the fact that I was dreaming and to see if it would be written in the real notepad when I woke up (I don't really have a notepad like that anymore).

Now I wanted to try something with my lucidity so I flew up in the sky fast like a rocket. It worked and I remember thinking that it was somewhat clear to be a dream (I am not sure anymore if it was, because my memory has faded some. Maybe it was just something I thought in the dream). I flew only for a short while over the roof tops before thinking "okay, what to do now then?". I couldn't really think of anything to do and then the dream kind of faded away.



I think that I wasn't really fully lucid in this dream for several reasons. Firstly, I wrote that word in the DJ that doesn't exist. That is like something you would do in a dream and if I would have the complete mindset of awake, I doubt I would have done that. Secondly, the thing that I couldn't figure out what to do when lucid. I have heaps of stuff I would like to try.

Anyway, it was awesome. XD

1- Treat
I am in a grocery store, reading some World of Warcraft manga, when I jump and realize gravity seems a bit off. I RC and become lucid. Wanting to do something fun, I find a bunch of candy and start eating it... It tastes REALLY good.

2- Terrible Nightmare
FA. I RC but it fails. When I go to the bathroom to start getting ready for school, I notice that my teeth are all crooked. "What the heck!? But they were fine last night!" I RC again, but it still fails. I show my mom and she says she'll have to take me to the orthodontist to get braces again.

Practically in tears, I am RCing like crazy. "No, I refuse to let this be real..." I turn the lights out in the bathroom and make faces at my reflection, trying to make it come out of the mirror and attack me. ('Cause I'd rather be attacked by my evil reflection than to have crooked teeth.) It behaves like a normal reflection. I fall backwards and try to sink into the wall. It is as solid as ever.

"THIS IS NOT REAL!" I tell myself firmly, and do another nose pinch RC. I cannot begin to describe my relief when it actually passes. Never have I been so happy to find myself in a dream...

3- Following the Plot
Another FA but I never lose lucidity due to the narration: "The deeper he goes into FAs, the more stable the dream becomes." ("He" because I've suddenly become a guy. I wonder what's with all these gender switching dreams, lately.) I get out of bed and look at the clock out of curiosity. 8:45. I sure hope that's not the real time, or else I'm late for school.

I'm about to try to wake myself up again, when I remember my new rule. It's just a stupid dream notion, I probably don't even have school today.

When I go outside, I immediately see my dog Fred approaching me. He suddenly morphs into his human form and pulls out a gun, firing three shots into the air before returning to his dog form, then beckons me to follow. I'm busy thinking of how I'm going to write this once I wake up.

He leads me to a graveyard way off in the woods and signals for me to stay hidden. I observe several people walking out of a church and become wrapped up in their conversation. (All of which has been lost, unfortunately.) They are trying to decide the fate of a certain man who has betrayed their religious order. Eventually they spin a wheel, which tells them to send the man to "Lady Fortuna." This seems to disappoint many of them.

8/9/10

New rule: Even if I believe the house is on fire IRL, I refuse to try to wake myself up.

1- Neverending Dream
I become lucid for whatever reason, but I MUST wake myself up because apparently I have a horse named Jake who is getting attacked by something IRL. I can hear him snorting in fear... I end up stuck in SP for a while, followed by a kajillion false awakenings. "Wake up." RC. Lucid. Try to wake up for real. "Wake up." RC. Lucid. Try to wake up for real. "Wake up." RC. Lucid. Try to wake up for real. ((Etc, etc, etc...)) Witness some pretty disturbing things... WHERE is the mind bleach!? [/color]RC. Lucid. Try to wake up for real.

FINALLY I "wake up" in the stable with my horse. I see that he is being attacked by a savage billy goat, which immediately turns on me and chomps down on my leg. In terrible pain, I am practically pulling the goats ears off in an attempt to get him to release me. Once it lets go of my leg, it fits my whole foot into its mouth and nearly rips it off. If Jake hadn't kicked the crazy animal off of me, I'd have probably been one foot short. That's when it clicks: I don't even own a horse! How retarded am I?

At least now I can actually make use of this time. I go off to once again search for Samael.

For some reason, my voice doesn't work when I yell. I can hear myself loud and clear if I speak to myself, but when I try to yell out Samael's name all I get is a dry rasp. How annoying...

It doesn't matter, however. I soon come across one who claims to be him. He looks "just like his avatar," according to my terrible dream memory. ((What is with these stupid false memories???)) Actually, he is covered in white paint, looking like a cross between a clown and some kind of demon.

I am curious about how I appear to him, and he tells me I look just like my avatar. What is my avatar? I think to myself, searching my memory. Isn't it a catgirl? I feel on top of my head to see if I have cat ears, but I find that I have none.

We talk for a while, and I begin to wonder if it's really him or just a DC. Then he randomly says, "God, you're cute."

"Okay, now I KNOW you're just a DC..."

We get attacked by something, and I lose lucidity.

After the battle, the entire situation changes. I am now talking to a girl who seems to be trying to kiss me. I'm not sure if I want her to or not, but I keep getting terrible hip cramps that are practically knocking me to the ground. Finally she exclaims, "Screw your hip cramps!" (obviously thinking that I'm doing this on purpose to evade her) and forcefully kisses me anyway.

More false awakenings. My brother jerks me off the bed onto the floor, but I'm too grateful to get out of the endless FA cycle to be mad.

Matt is there, and he is doing a perfect rendition of the speaking part in Creek Mary's Blood by Nightwish.

I finally wake up for real and find that Creek Mary's Blood is playing on my Mp3 player.

August 13, 2010

No recall from before the WILD attempt.

WILD attempt unsuccessful... got a little too relaxed Fell asleep listening to ninja's subliminal mp3

Back to bed by 6am, and mantra'd to myself: How does my body feel? <- Noting this because it seemed to have worked That or the mp3... not sure.

The mirror - Lucid - 4/5
It's night time. I find myself walking up to a line up of cars in a drive thru. I randomly get inside a car at the pick up window. In the driver seat, there is a chick highly reminiscent of Mimi from Drew Carey, except she was as large as Peter Griffin from family guy (and also lacked a neck).





The other girl in the passenger seat was fairly nondescript. So anyways, the order is somehow wrong, and we go inside the restaurant. The restaurant is a bit shaky, and it starts melding into a school. And now, we were in the girls' classroom. My friends started talking absolute nonsense. It sounded like their tongues got all swollen. During this bit, I gradually started getting lucid, and by the time they started talking in tongues ( ) I was fully lucid.

I leave the room and I pass by the guys' classroom. I see Darren in there, but I'm not quite ready to do anything about that yet. I have two goals to complete first. A mirror and a unicorn. I walk to the end of the hall, where I tell myself there will be a washroom. "When I open the door, there will be a person-sized mirror for me to step through in there," I tell myself. Believing it, I opened the door. The bathroom was deplorable (as they often are in my dreams), lacked toilets... and mirrors. Ugh... Alright... let's just snap my fingers and summon one. I tried snapping my fingers, but for some reason, it wouldn't work. My fingers felt all swollen and floppy, and they just wouldn't snap. I looked at my hands in frustration and found my middle fingers looked like carrots (skin coloured carrots, mind). "You're fucking joking!" I said, out loud.

The forcing of control caused the dream to deteriorate. I remembered Mosh telling me about using senses and I remembered my own experience about interacting with the dream environment, so I immediately touched the door to the washroom and started rubbing it. It brought the dream back. I continued to do that until it felt solid again.

I turned around, and there was a small mirror on the wall, now. It'll have to do. I took it off the wall and flopped it on my head. It didn't quite thunk, it had some give. "Perfect!" I thought. I closed my eyes and started bringing the mirror down over me. Past my head, my shoulders. Around my waist, I told myself when this is done, I'll be in an enchanted forest, for the unicorn. I brought the mirror down through my feet, and stepped out of the back side. Still in the washroom. I sighed. This dream is being ridiculous. I also had to rub the walls again, because it was being shaky again. I remembered Mosh saying something about using all his senses. I smelled the washroom. It smelled like cleaner. I licked the door ( :sick: ). It tasted like nothing, but had the same texture as it did for my hands.

I need to find some other way to reach the unicorn, but I got slightly distracted. I realized I was wearing my nightgown (same as WL), but my flannel pants and undies were missing. I thought, "Oh fantastic, let's summon Darren now, then!" I stared at a wall. "Darren? Can I see you?" I asked, using the same trick I used to summon Danny, my DG. I turned around. He's not there. This is some of the worst control I've had in a really long time...

Alright, well, I remember seeing him earlier... I left the washroom and poked my head into the guys' classroom. A bunch of faces stared at me. No Darren, though.

I went out to the common area... scan, scan... no Darren. I began to think any of one of these guys will do... But no! I firmed my resolve. It's Darren or nothing! I realized he wasn't going to be in this dream, so, lets go find the unicorn.

I left the building, and found it's still nighttime (hooray for dream continuity! Sort of). I started jogging and remembered, "Well, I'm dreaming... let's just fly." At my side, was my purse, from WL. Good, cos I was using it for stabilization. Oh right, at some point here, I was playing around with throwing an object in the air, cos it kept coming down slowly (which amused me, apparently ). Also, I remember seeing the supervisor vehicle from work, and a bunch of guys were piling into it like a clown car... Let's just ignore that. Anyways, I kicked off the ground, flew a bit and sank. I kinda figured this would happen, though, cos I'd been having control problems all dream. I rubbed my purse and remembered to set a point on the horizon to focus on while I fly. I kicked off again, and fixed my "point" on the stars. I felt it connect with my third eye, and flying was now no longer an issue. I shouted into the night, "I summon a unicorn!" My voice sounded like laryngitis. The dream also started destabilizing again, too. I do remember seeing a unicorn come at me, but it kept fading I rubbed my purse again. Nothing. I rubbed my hands. Nothing.

When I woke up and looked at my clock, I realized I probably wouldn't have been able to save it anyways... I'd been asleep about 90 minutes, so the REM period was probably up.

I tried my mantra again, but I seemed to lack focus this go-around...

A dream hanging out with Hugh Laurie. Not much else going on here.
