    Lucid Dreams

    1. First sucesful WILD !!

      August-13-10

      Yay!
      I guess it was all just up to WBTB timing. (I took a quick reset/break from polyphasic, and tested this) This happened around 6 AM after 3-4 hours of sleep.
      I "fell" into the dream, and landed on a snowey mountain in my back yard. It wasn't really my back yard, but it was behind my house. The surrounding area was very dense with houses but there was no one else in sight. I took it slow standing up and starting to move around and I felt the dream stabalize. It was a nice feeling knowing that I had created all of that. Unfortunatly I'm not very skilled in holding my lucidity. After the snow started to blow away from the top of the mountain I yelled "increase lucidity!" and it sort of worked, so I then yelled "this is my dream! Increase lucidity now!" and it worked a bit better. So I willed the snow back onto the mountain, and it worked. I tried to progress on to plan b (you know ) and I very quickly lost stability and a little lucidity. I "woke up" into a FA, which I'm pretty sure I caught (because I'm making it my habit to check after every time I awaken) however I very quickly lost conciousness after that. I guess it was kind of my fault for embarking on a task that I knew would knock me out. Next time I plan on exploring more, maybe flying around, and trying to talk to DC's. Also I need to learn how to get rid of this foggy feeling to my dreams. Potentially for my nap today?
    2. Aug 13 2010 - LD Galore

      by , 08-13-2010 at 04:59 PM (Mah Journal)
      First I had a FA:

      I woke up and started eating breakfast and doing the daily routine. I saw on the clock that it was 9:30 and went to call RE and tell her that I was sick and probably shouldn't come. Then it ended.

      After, I had a nap:

      I started off in some snowy place, and I was watching some people struggling to get on this icy block.

      Then the scene changed, and I sort of realized that I had just lain down for a nap, and so I was lucid. At this point the scene had changed, and I was watching some DC throw webs at the ceiling like spiderman. I decided to try it to. I did the motion and the webs came spurting out. But I didn't have enough time to jump before the scene suddenly changed.

      Now I was at home. I thought about my LD goals and decided I should try dream healing on my leg. I held my hands around my knee and felt warm energy flowing. Then the skeleton of my knee flashed in front of me, and I saw gold light wrapping it. After that, the dream ended, and I was thrown into another non-lucid sleep.
    3. Friday, August 13, 2010

      Well, after a day full of reality checks and a watch of Avatar before bed (you know, for lucid dreaming inspiration ) I was decently set up for some good dreams...except for recall. It still stinks after going so long without working on it. Oh well, I'll get better again.

      I'm actually not sure if the RC's helped me out any last night or not. I know they will as they become habitual, so I'm not disappointed, but to be honest, I can't remember any of my regular dreams. So maybe they did help and I went lucid and totally don't remember it; I don't know.

      But, at 6:00 I woke up to my WBTB alarm, and that's when things took a turn for the better. I went for a WILD this time, and it half-worked. I went right into a dream, but I wasn't completely sure of if I was dreaming or not. I was looking for confirmation either way, but never once remembered to RC.

      Before long, I was caught up in a group of DC's comprised of both people from real life and fictional characters. I cannot recall exactly what they were doing, but I believe they were looking for something very important, and although they weren't enemies, there was a lot of competition to see who would find it first.

      I only had to go with them a very short while for it to sink in that this was a dream. The terrain was weird, for one thing. We had moved along from a very realistic looking place to something like a video game from the late 90's. And then of course the Na'vi in the group were kind of a dead giveaway

      Knowing it was a dream, the DC's bore no weight on me anymore and I didn't care to stick around their group any longer. I just stopped and took some time to feel things around me, and before long the realism of the place increased tenfold and I grew more lucid as well.

      What happened next is mostly uncertain. I feel like I did something first, but at any rate, I ended up in a false awakening and lost lucidity. I was back in bed, lying down. I thought the lucid dream was over and I had woken up, so I got out of bed to get ready for the day. But no sooner had I opened my bedroom door than I was standing back amidst that group of DC's, and it hit me again that this was a dream. Unfortunately, this time I didn't think to even feel things, so my lucidity was pretty low. I never thought to leave the DC group and do more interesting things. Instead, I just went along with them and showed off all the things I could do while knowing that physics didn't exist.

      It gets really hazy after that...I remained lucid for a very long time and did a lot of stuff, but eventually I lost it again and the dream continued on non-lucid for the remainder of the dream.

      When I woke up I had been asleep for over two hours, and I'm sure about an hour of that was lucid...too bad it wasn't very high lucidity, and my recall wasn't so great. But at least I'm making progress again!

    4. 08/10/10 Too Much Information!

      by , 08-13-2010 at 09:47 AM (New Dream Adventures of Raven Knight)
      I felt the dream slipping, so I focused on using Allura's version of time dilation, and the dream stabilized. I looked over at Data and asked him what dream we would be viewing today…

      I was back in MoSh's inner world, in his living room, sitting on the couch beside MoSh with Data in front of us. Data said he had another dream queued up to be viewed. The holographic view system activated and the scenes around us changed to the scenes of MoSh's dreams from the night of December 3, 2009.

      Present day MoSh and I were in an office of some kind, a really nice one, and MoSh was sitting at a desk with some old looking papers on it, they looked like old parchment. I looked closer at the parchment and it had an outline of a person with different energy centers highlighted, it was a drawing of an astral body along with an energy body.

      Larger Diagram
      I studied the picture on the parchment for some time, for some reason I thought it was important. There's a link to a larger picture of it, but I'm not sure if I got it right or not, I just did the best I could. MoSh then took another paper and wrote some more things down, but I didn't get the idea I needed to remember those, so I focused on remembering the diagram on the paper. I wondered what the chances of me remembering that were… I was still focused on that as the images of the dream changed, and I didn't even realize the dream had changed until MoSh nudged me because I wasn't paying attention.

      MoSh got up out of a sleeping bag at night, and stretched before walking down the hill. He met Asuka down there, but he didn't seem to recognize her, which seemed to get her a bit annoyed about that, but soon MoSh seemed to realize who she was and they talked for a bit, I got closer and I could hear that Asuka was trying to make MoSh become lucid, but he wasn't doing it… She was trying again when the dream shifted once more.

      Now it was a park, it was still night, although it wasn't completely dark… maybe early morning or late afternoon, and I got to see just what I always wanted… MoSh taking a dump… which I didn't stare at, unlike a rude DC who came along and walked right in as if this wasn't as rude as it appeared… I said out loud, "Data? What the fuck did you leave that in there for?! I didn't really need or want to see that…" The dream shifted.

      MoSh was with a woman, it was Asuka, and she was slightly behind him, I remembered she'd had that bad habit for a while of not being where MoSh could easily see her… They went into a building that looked like an office, there weren't any other people there, it was completely silent there. MoSh was exploring the place, Asuka staying just a little bit behind him, when he entered a larger room that looked like it was meant for large presentations. Not big enough to call it an auditorium, but bigger than a normal office, with seats lined up and a stage at the front. The only light was coming from candles lining the sides of the room, which actually gave it a rather creepy atomosphere. MoSh went up to the stage and started playing a guitar that he had summoned, he was playing very good. Asuka took a seat in the front row and listened attentively, I also listened, he was playing classical music, which I am not very knowledgeable about, so I couldn't say what song or composer. But he had more audience than just Asuka… weird specters floated in as he was playing and filled more of the seats. Neither MoSh nor Asuka seemed to notice them, and I didn't sense hostility. Another shift in the dream…

      Now there was a short bit of MoSh with Asuka in a small playground, there was someone on the teeter totter moving it in odd directions, MoSh joined that person, the teeter totter moved erratically, and both of them nearly fell off and face planted… Asuka looked like she couldn't decide if she was worried about them getting hurt or wanting to laugh at the ridiculous looks on their faces… "Hey, Data!" the present day MoSh said to me, "We don't need to see every little fragment, just get us to the parts I asked you to see!" The dream shifted…

      Now I was looking at MoSh back on the hill where he had been a couple segments ago, where the sleeping bag had been, and Asuka was with him. She asked MoSh about an unconscious dream walker, said she would really like to meet her if that was at all possible. MoSh said he wasn't sure where H was at this time, then he walked over to two other men and asked them if they had seen H. The younger of the men said H was getting ready for the party, of course. It was H's birthday, he added that MoSh had better have brought a present this time… and a real one, not some piece of shit. MoSh asked the man where the party was taking place, and the man looked at MoSh like he was nuts. He said MoSh already knew that, MoSh said if he knew he wouldn't be asking. The man hesitated, giving MoSh a strangely blank look that I have only seen on a DC, then he repeated that H was getting ready for a party. MoSh called him useless and walked a short distance. Asuka looked at the two men for a bit, then she looked at MoSh for a bit, said if he could focus on H, she thought she could open a portal to get there. MoSh agreed to that, and after just a short pause, Asuka opened a portal and then followed MoSh through it.

      On the other side of the portal we were in a big room that looked more like a warehouse than a place to have a party, but there was a woman there working on changing that, she was hanging decorations on the walls, covering the plain concrete floor with what looked like colorful beach towels… lots of them… Asuka went over to the woman and introduced herself, it turned out the woman was H, and H said she was very busy with the party preparations. Asuka said H shouldn't have to do all the work for her own birthday… Asuka started helping H out, she brightened up the place by creating colorful flowers and making them grow over some of the uglier parts of the room. Before long it did look like a really festive place. H said she still needed the cake, she asked MoSh about the cake, MoSh didn't have a cake… H told MoSh he was supposed to bring the cake, Asuka said no, she was supposed to bring the cake, and it was right here… she summoned up a cake, a very fancy cake, it looked really delicious, though it looked more like a wedding cake than a birthday cake… and H didn't miss this fact. She told Asuka that she was having a birthday, not getting married, but then she took the cake and started eating it like a pig… then the dream shifted.

      Next there was a car on the road, and the past MoSh seemed very interested in that. There were four people in the car, a man and a woman in the front as well as a man and a woman in the back, the men were both on the driver's side and the women were on the passenger's side. There was nothing remarkable to be seen about the group, it was dark and they were driving a bit fast, the driver wasn't paying enough attention… was there going to be a wreck? Sure enough, there was a wreck… the car slammed full speed into the back of a stopped semi truck, crumpling the front of the car completely and triggering the airbags in the car… there were 4 airbags, two in front and then two in the back of the front seats for the rear seat passengers. The man on the driver's side was lucky there was an airbag, he was not buckled in. He flew forward into his airbag, then he acted like he couldn't breathe. The woman next to him was behaving a bit strangely… I saw she had what I think was a pencil and she was stabbing the man in his right side over and over and over and over… ok… that one was a bit disturbing… The driver from the semi came back to see what had happened, he saw the woman stabbing the man beside her. He asked what she was doing, she said unfortunately the man beside her had been killed in the accident. She fished around on the floor a bit and came back up with a screwdriver, she continued stabbing the man with the screwdriver even though the truck driver was watching… um…

      Another shift in the dream? Nope. It ended this time. MoSh and I were back in his living room. MoSh was not pleased with Data, he said he'd asked for the important dreams, not every single fragment he'd ever had! MoSh was especially annoyed about the one where he'd been on the toilet, although I had made sure to turn away without seeing anything… in fact, I would have sworn his pants hadn't been down, he had just been sitting there on a toilet doing absolutely nothing… but MoSh was still yelling at Data about including non-important dreams in the set. Data stated MoSh hadn't defined what an 'important' dream was, and since hidden dream signs could be in any of the dreams, he had included them all. MoSh was quite exasperated, I'm not sure if that's what woke him, but he disappeared. I woke shortly after MoSh disappeared.

      Dream Guide, Betrayal, & Suicide


      Sam Winchester from the TV show Supernatural was there. I recognized him as Sam. He walked up to me and told me he could teach me to control my dream powers. At first Sam had short hair and I decided I liked it better that way. Then once I agreed to let him train me in controlling my dreams we started walking through the woods with some random young boy. Then I realized I was dreaming, so I turned to the little boy and grabbed his face. Then yelled “I’m dreaming haha! And I know it!” The I ran back after Sam and the little boy did nothing because I knew it was my dream and I had control. But when I caught up with Sam he had long hair and I was mad about it. So I shut my eyes nad focused on imagining him with short hair. But when I opened my eyes he was some older man I thought was quite ugly. Then I got angrier because Sam was doing a bad job of teaching me dream control.

      So I shut my eyes and focused again and when I opened them I was in a gothic house and Sam was sitting in a chair in some magician’s outfit. He kept rolling his eyes because I could not control my dream and had stuck him in that lame outfit.
      Then I lost control and it was like a normal dream, and the setting changed. I was living on a farm in a really rural area. A guy that resembled Ian Somerholder was apparently my boyfriend. I knew I was completely in love with him. All of the sudden people were ambushing the barn and trying to shoot him and my family. Ian and I decided we had to confront these people so we walked out of the barn together, hand in hand. I turned to him and told him “Never forget, I will always love you.” Because I knew we were going to die soon. He said “I love you too”. Then the bad guys with guns were standing there saying they did not want to watch some sappy peep show. So I turned to them and asked what they wanted.

      Then Ian walked over to them! He was on their side! He betrayed me and had tricked me into loving him. I felt crushed and so upset in that moment. He told me they wanted to kill my family and take our money and gold. I was furious and destroyed at the same time, partially having a breakdown. Then Ian grabbed me and dragged me inside with his evil co-workers. He told them to look for my family while he took care of me. Then he locked me in some basement and told me not to move, I would eb safe there. I was still furious but I realized in some sense he had cared about me, he did not want me to die.

      So I stayed in this gross basement thing beneath the barn then saw some creepy guy was living in it! So I screamed for Ian to get me out. I broke out of the cellar alone since he never came back for me. I walked through the barn only to see my families bodies sprawled on the floor, face down, dead. I knew there was nothing left for me here so I walked to the edge of our land where a cliff meets the sea. Then I jumped off and did a graceful dive into the ocean far below. As I dove deeper my body slowly disintegrated in the water into a shooting stare then I knew I had finally died.
    6. Wave 14: The Journey begins (for real :))

      by , 08-13-2010 at 03:52 AM (The Meerkat's Lair)
      Ah, August 11/12 2010. A night I will remember for a long time. My first relatively long, satisfying, epic Lucid Dream. It is actually my second, but it means so much more to me as I discovered many things. I took my first steps as an oneironaut. I am a lucid dreamer. There's no stopping me now. Lets go back to the beginning of this great night with the non-lucid, shitty part.

      I am on an action tele-series. Similar to 24. We are in front of a huge glass tower with big stairs and steps. There is a black car parked next to it which contains a mentaly troubled man. I engage in a conversation with his mother, who has short blonde hair. I ask her "Is he dangerous"? She answers no, or any other negative answer I cant quite recall. I sort of know im on a TV show since my sister is watching it in the living room. A big load of stairs is shown while different characters from the plotline chat about how hearing people talking yet not seeing them in a tv show adds to the effect. Weird.

      Thn somehow I end up in a rollercoaster ride with the mother. The rails are blue and white, and it is only a few feet from the floor.. As we ride, the cart suddenly derails and we end up on the pavement. I yell to the other passengers that we are fine then ask the manager if it happens frequently. He says that this stuff happens regularly. I remember thinking "Nice and im going back to LaRonde with Alex soon. Now im too scared to ride stuff". I talk to a man on the front of his door and ask him why he doesnt like the crazy guy. I am having a red slush and I go yuck, hopefully its not cherry. It was actually strawberry. The man is having a Frosty (Wendie's) with a chocolate and peach flavour. I consider taking some. Then I turn around and see his wife with another Frosty.

      Could have went in details but thats not the interesting part. Noone cares about Non-Lucids.

      False Awakening. I am in my bed and next to me is one of moms shirts. It has a very special texture, which is why its a memorable shirt. I pick it up and try to find a spot to put it. Then it hit me. But much more softly then the first time. I wasnt like OH SHIT DREAM! It was more of a: I think im dreaming. Then, so I dont wake up from excitement, I pinch my nose and confirm my doubt. Instinctively, I feel like my eyes and my "Dream" eyes are still fragile. Im afraid I will wake up if I open them. So I get up, with my eyes closed, and spin. Then I disconnect enough to open and look around. Im convinced had I not done that, I would have messed it up. So im in my room. Yeah. Now what? Im gonna try flying! Yay! Jump, jump, jump...no liftoff. Damn it. I keep trying to jump until I can jump to the ceiling. But I fall back down. Then I remember about a thing where you would jump from something high. I jump off my bed. No luck. I consider jumping down the window but im too scared. So then I go "Wait a minute...Il just go through the wall, then outside, and then il have tons of space!" So I kinda feel with my hand if thats possible. The wall becomes gooey and covers the edge of my fingertips. I have just enough time to be amazed that I open my eyes and its over. Already . Next time I wil fly. For sure.
    7. 08/10/10 The Pod Tree

      by , 08-13-2010 at 01:29 AM (New Dream Adventures of Raven Knight)
      Note: I fell asleep with my light / sound machine as I usually do, with the intent to accomplish a couple of goals. My goals included meeting with Nomad on the moon to share some energy with him because he said he has been so worn out lately, MoSh said he would help with this. Second I planned to go and view another dream from the past, another of MoSh's dreams, and then I had plans to locate Blake and maybe have an Oblivion dream with Tigress if I could get that. That seemed like a lot of dreams for one night, but I figured I would just get in what I had time for. I fell asleep and slipped into my WILD…

      I didn't even have to take a look around to realize where I had entered the dream, no hesitation, I headed straight for the front door of MoSh's house and knocked. No one opened the door, but there was a voice behind me, and when I turned I saw MoSh there with Asuka. I asked MoSh if he was lucid, he said he was, I asked if he was going to remember the dream, he said no. Asuka pulled a Gibbs on him (a slap to the back of the head) and told him that he would remember the dream, not an option. I opened a portal to the moon, to get to the BanYan tree near the base of the tower, and it opened. MoSh and I went through the portal, but I was surprised Asuka didn't follow us. The portal closed behind us.

      I followed MoSh over to a tree, a huge tree that was standing at the base of an even bigger tower, I stood there and stared at the tree for a few minutes, It was a huge tree that had numerous pod type structures connected by walkways in the branches, it was a pretty amazing looking tree… I was thinking that would be a cool thing to have in an RPG… a huge tree with all those different pods in it, it looked big enough to be an entire city in the tree. I went over to the tree, I spotted Nomad near the base of it, he was talking to someone that looked a bit familiar… Nomad was talking to someone who appeared to be part human, but mostly tiger… Nomad seemed to be enjoying talking to him, MoSh and I went over to the two of them. Nomad asked if we remembered his cousin, Bobby? Who now goes by Saber? I said I remembered seeing him once before, in a previous dream. I told Nomad I was there to give him some extra energy, MoSh was going to help with that… I saw there was a fox there with us, the fox came over to me and sat there, looking up at me… cute! It made me want to pick up the fox and hug it… So I scooped the fox into my arms… the fox allowed that… and I was petting the fox when MoSh was trying to get my attention, he said if I was through snuggling with Pablo maybe we could do what we came for. Snuggling with Pablo? I looked closer at the fox I was holding… yup. The energy signature was Pablo's… I asked if he was going to share positive energy with Nomad. The fox licked my nose… I set the fox down and then we went ahead and did healing spells to transfer positive energy to Nomad, golden energy formed and filled all of us there… it was a very pleasant energy.

      After sharing energy with Nomad, his cousin, the tiger man, wanted to show off what he had done with the tree, the BanYan tree, which had once been Nomad's moon house and now had reached the scale of a small city. We looked through some of the various chambers inside the pods, and it was really an awesome place… it had everything, pods with various rooms, pods with natural habitats, pods with healing areas, many of the pods were much larger on the inside than they appeared to be from the outside. Some of the pods seemed to be there for production, growing crops of various kinds, some I recognized and many I didn't, pods with various animals and insects that were producing cloths… Saber said they would be sold in the city in the biodome and Nowhere, free, of course. There is no need of money there… MoSh seemed impatient, I thought about that for a bit and I remembered there were events from the past he wanted to take a second look at, so I told Nomad that MoSh and I had something to do, but we, or at least I, would be back to share more energy with him later.

      So now I opened a portal back to MoSh's inner world, we both went through it and entered directly into the living room instead of at the place where I normally enter in the front yard. Data was there, I could hear Asuka in the other room humming a song to herself, and I could hear the sound of children playing in one of the other rooms. I felt the dream slipping, so I focused on using Allura's version of time dilation, and the dream stabilized. I looked over at Data and asked him what dream we would be viewing today…

    8. Getting shot

      August 12, 2010

      Getting shot - Lucid - 1/5
      Not entirely sure what prompted me to have this kind of a dream... but I was Eva Braun... Hitler asked me to do something for him, but I betrayed him instead. He pointed a gun at me and I vaguely knew that I was dreaming. I thought to myself, "Let myself get shot, I want to know what this feels like, in dreams." Nothing happened, so I screamed, "Go ahead and shoot me!" at him. I heard the sound (like a silencer) and it just felt like a headache, but very pinpointed... like the surface area of a laser point or a needle. Nothing horrible. I woke up.

    9. First Day Of School Part II...8/8/10

      by , 08-12-2010 at 08:21 PM (INeverWakeUp's Super Dream Journal)
      I dreamed I was at school(DS). It was the first day. I went to MRs. Smith's(DS) room cause I didn't have a schedule. She told me to go to the office(DS). All they gave me was snow gear to wear. Very odd. I became lucid without an RC. But I did notice my dream sign for once. I tried using my summoning skills around the school. They wouldn't work. It was odd. I couldn't find my problem. Suddenly, an alarm went off. A student was by a so-called "forbidden river." Odd, cause they're no rivers by my school.

      Everyone retreated to homeroom. A teacher yelled at me for not going.
      "I can help."I said. They believed me. Outside, it snowing, oddly enough, it was summer time. Down by the river, a student was trapped by two rottwieler dogs. Then, I remembered my problem:I was using expectancy instead of intent. So, I used intent. I turned my back, and became a werewolf. I communicated with the dogs, and they ran off.
      I soon awoke.

      Aug 11-12: I don't remember much. I remember two or three different fragments.
      1. I was swimming in crystal blue waters in the ocean worrying that sharks would get me.
      2. I realized that I was dreaming and again tried rubbing my hands together. I checked the time in my dream for some reason, even though I already knew I was dreaming. The dream started to fade out so I tried dream spinning, but it still didn't work. I don't think that I can control what I'm doing while I'm trying to get a fully lucid dream, I think its just instinct to rub my hands together. That obviously doesn't work, so I need to try something else. I don't think I ever woke up, I just think it went on to another dream.
      3. My room at my dad's house kept getting set on fire. I also remember some witch lady would chant and randomly set stuff on fire. (Why have all my dreams had fire in them lately?)

    11. August 12th, 2010

      by , 08-12-2010 at 06:25 PM
      As per class 2, prior to sleeping I spent most of my time imagining a forest. I pictured myself touching the bark of an old oak tree, feeling it a little, then shooting up through the branches and leaves into a vast expanse of trees. The forest forms an infinite valley of greenery, and I fly around it.

      sadly, this didn't play out the was I envisioned, but the night was a success regardless!

      I only recall few fragments from my first dream. I was being transported all over the world. All I remember is that the Worlds' climate was in danger, and I ended up in Australia. There was a giant yellow sign depicting all of the atrocities Australia was doing, and it was claiming they were using a fourth of the worlds resources.

      I woke up early again. Probably about 6 AM again. Our cat was clawing at my backpack. Soon after I moved it, I decided to try to WILD, and realizing Alyssa's dad would be up for work soon, I decided I should use headphones to cancel out any sound. I listened to my binural beats track. About 1 hour after trying to sleep while relaxing, my eyes started flickering intensely and I felt my heart beating incredibly loud. This happened on my last time trying to WILD, but last time it was accompanied with visuals. I don't remember any clear visuals with this attempt, except at one point I was positive I was seeing blurry silhouettes of people. My left shoulder and right thigh started to feel weird, so I decided to snap out of it and just go to sleep normally. The whole time I was trying to WILD I was concentrating on the image of a forest.

      The last dream I remember, I was in some sort of mansion of sorts. Filled with several different people. I remember the architecture of the building made no sense. I can't give any real specific examples, but there were only certain ways to get to certain rooms, hallways weren't really present. I recall having a FA into a room of the mansion that looked similar to the room in waking life that I was currently sleeping in. I thought it was a strange dream. Then I'm not sure what tipped me off, but something didn't feel right. I looked at my hand, but didn't see anything. I was positive it felt like I lifted my hand up, but I could only see my thumb. I put it back down, and tried my other hand. Again, I saw nothing. I came to the conclusion I was dreaming, and became lucid. I remember looking around the room, trying to take it what I could. I looked down at Alyssa and had the thought of waking her to talk to myself, but she was breathing in a strange way so I decided against it. I took a few steps towards an air hockey table that didn't exist in the waking world, and felt a vibration coming from my cellphone in my pocket. I went to grab it and answer it, but as I did, I woke up.

      It wasn't the most amazing lucid, but it certainly beats my last record of becoming lucid and the dream exploding to white. Looking forward to my next lucid--hopefully to complete the task of the week!

      Okies so,

      This is the first entry for me here so be gentle, should probably work on shorting down the descriptions a bit, but as I am only getting back into dreamworks (clever ey!) I find it helpful to increase the level of detail I notice, I might start shorting down the forum posts and keep the detailed descriptions to a private journal.

      Notes/reflections

      12-08-10 Attained lucidity after waking from a dream within a dream. In the first dream I was hearing routine scraping sounds from my living room and I feared these a bit. In fact i feared them so much that I would not go to the kitchen in order to get some water or milk (I knew I had no milk). I decided instead to go to the toilet which was a hotel style toilet (even though it was right next to my room and I have no such toilet I didn't spot the hint) I was sitting in this toilet looking at the details noticing the increased space, but also that there was a sign right next to the toilet that explained what it was in different languages. I returned to my bed and noticed that my duvet was a bit too small that I could somewhat not fit under it and hide from the ghosts of my flat. At this point I woke up (within the dream) and the scraping sound was now louder from the room next door, but this time it was accompanied with a whisper clear in my head and I looked around and saw a transparent face. Now I suspected I was dreaming so got up, confronted the ghost and told him ”you are a spirit, I am dreaming” he tried to talk me out of it, but I tested my thesis by trying to fly, successfully. I landed snapped my fingers and said ”I am dreaming” I awaited a bit to see if the excitement would wake me up, but this waiting a bit seemed to stabilise the dream. I made the face my spirit friend and told him to come along for the ride, saying ”you are created by me”. I went to the corridor of my flat and tried to fly straight through the door, but everything became black as I tried to do so and after another unsuccessful attempt I decided to try the window instead. Here at first I banged my entire body against the glass (without it breaking) and I took a step back, focused and flew straight through the glass without breaking it. My spirit friend was at this point a bit behind me, but since he wouldn't keep up (or I couldn't be bothered keeping creating him) I flew high and low and saw some people on a spot of grass, and landed in front of them. I told them I was dreaming and that they were projected by me and that we should relish the chance to have a party. The scraping sounds had now turned into a full on funky house background theme song that stayed till the end of the dream. I flew down towards the university and a mass of people where gathering, again I told them they were just in my head and they accepted this and things turned riot like, in a good way. A car with some people in it and an angry driver Jacob Kliver, an old football coach of mine approached. He looked angrily at the people in front of him so I flew straight towards the car (to give him the surprise of his life ^^) put my feet first and kicked the window (without breaking it. The car emptied and I picked it up, to the amusement of the crew around me and tried to throw it in a top floor window, I couldn't quite get it to fit although I tried 3 times, but they seemed happy enough that I could throw a car around. However determined to prove that I could achieve some proper stuff I summoned a leather/metal sofa (now getting reminded that telekinesis was also within the realms of reality) picked it up with my mind and planted it halfway through the top window of the building across the road. I flew onwards and decided that I wanted some sexual/romantic action too and wanted to kiss the first girl that turned up, which happened to be a delicate good looking friend of mine reminding me of Sarah. I kissed her, but it was just too wet and I had some fun explaining to the girl that it was probably because I was kissing myself and in an attempt to stick my own tongue down my throat I was drooling all over the place. So I wiped my mouth and flew on without much happening till I got to a night club where I saw Sarah and a guy that had been on a street earlier. The funky house music was now coming from the speakers of the club and we decided to hang out a while. The guy I decided was a pain in the ass and I wanted to erase him, which I couldn't. I had a conversation with the guy about it saying it was funny that I couldn't because in reality he was a projection of my mind (not sure he thought it was funny) they left, after I insisted on getting his name, which he had to tell me twice (Jay 100) and I went to the window and decided to do a full on telekinetic exit I shattered the glass outwards with my mind (explosion style!!) jumped from the window in a huge arc and landed on a radiator on the outside of an adjacent building, to great amusement of some random people passing by (yes it seemed perfectly logical that a radiator would be placed on the outside of a building, at least at the time!). I decided to practice a few dancing moves, but at this point I had some trouble breathing. I took some time to focus and regain my breath, which I did (although I have no idea as to how, when I woke up later I was face down in my pillow). I danced a bit and did some heavenly parcour (spelling?) until I had some trouble breathing again. At this point I became scared thinking I might not wake up even if I was dying because my conscience was not with my body. I demanded to wake up without success, until I decided to close my eyes and focus on my breath (I have only recently tried WILD techniques, unsuccessfully, but apparently they are great for stopping a no longer wanted dream too =P) and woke up, drawing a deep, DEEP breath (after having pulled my face out the pillow).

      Notes: This is the second time the presence of a ghost gives me the hint of the fact I am dreaming. This was in fact a wake back to bed attempt as I had been sleeping most of the day after not having slept much yesterday and getting called to work this morning by my dad.

      Regarding the content of my dream, the meanings can be interpreted in a standard Freudian manner about desires, fears etc.

      Also at some point there were some old school knee pad protectors (brown and fluffy) and I somehow knew I would need them, although they don't figure in the later stages of the dream(s). However I am not sure what dream they figure in.

      12-08-10 Fragmented series of dreams. I was somewhere with some friends of mine Kaiser was there. As the end of the trip approached he told me he was looking forward to going to a long planned event with me that I had totally forgotten. Even as he reminded me of the contents of this event I had no recollection of what happened and how I got involved. He later tried to sway me me by having Dukakis on a call and a friend of Duki's asked what and what was happening to me, I believe the place I was supposed to go was Bulgaria. Later on I even took out my calendar flipped through the filled out pages (I should kill myself for not realising this was a dream here, as I oppose diaries and calendars with a passion) and did indeed find the date in mention with a note called “focus fuck” referring to my intentions of participating in this event. I still couldn't remember a damn thing, and although now I was actually getting convinced I had agreed to it, I was sure I hadn't agreed to anything that took place foreignly. When I in the end refused to go, Kaiser was severely disappointed, in fact he was in tears and this touched me. We departed at the train station, actually a hell of a lot of train travelling took place, and I ended up in bulgaria although Kaiser and Duki were not part of this segment of the dream. I met a girl, not a very attractive girl (in fact with a female mustache) but I felt connected to her and I liked her in a non-sexual fashion. We were not able to communicate a lot and therefore we decided to attend a language school together and at this language school the teacher asked who was serious and actually intended on learning something rather than being there to get credits for something. Both her and I decided that we were going to learn the common means of communication. However this never occurred as a demonic (seemed goblin like) police officer turned up in a car outside. He shot the girl in the throat, a fatal wound, and I never managed to catch up with him. I returned to the home of the girl and decided to remain a little longer in the company of her brother. Her brother introduced me to an older brother of his, who had experience and an underground network of people, in fighting supernatural beings. One of these ended up being a warewolf, also a police officer and I was riding a bike with this older brother who told me the gun I had was loaded with silver bullets. I shot this man who was chasing us from the back of the bike, I hit him in the shoulder, but because of the silver bullets this was enough to kill him. As he was dying I noticed that he started to shift (he grew a mean ass set of teeth!) and I also noticed that from the bullet wound a silver coating appeared engulfing the man's shoulder starting from deep within his veins. We returned to the house of the siblings and we went to a field to play some football the two brothers and I (after having ventured on yet another train travel). I somehow had a ticket that would allow me free roaming transport on any train, after having checked this with a controller. In the end I departed and explained to the younger brother of the girl that despite the tragic circumstances I was glad to have gotten to know him better and had a good time. I woke up.

      Notes: This is not the first time I have experienced (and missed) trains as a clear dream sign.
    13. Lucid Dream #2

      by , 08-12-2010 at 03:25 PM (Warbenifit156's Lucid Dreaming Adventures)
      Lucidity: 5/10
      Vividness: 5/10
      Length: ~5 Min.

      I was in a giant playground where people were playing soccor, then I saw Toph. And a burst of awareness hit me, I was like "Toph, come here." Was what I was thinking. When I tried to talk to her soccor balls were flying all over the place. When I looked around, she was gone. I tried to stop the soccor balls but it didn't work. Then I saw two jets flying around so I decided to fly up there. I thought "well I might as well try flying." So I just got the idea of flying in my head and crouched for a moment, then jumped. I put my hands up like in super man and I was thinking about falling/failing, then I started to go slower. Then I was "oh crap" and decided to get it out of my head and concentrate on going faster. Then I went faster, I tried to go towards the jets but I almost ran into the building. So I went higher. I was about to try a second time when they came towards me. I think this was how I destroyed them. I just got the idea in my head of destroying them. And they blew up. Then I disapeared and I was like in a camera thinking "oh crap, I lost lucidity." But I didn't because I was thinking it, the camera went over to a building where the blown up helicopter was and I saw some guy down there in a giant suit. So I wondered if I could move him and if this was my body and it was. I went back to 1st person mode and I walked down this hallway. I went through a series of elevators that went side-to-side. One of them had all of these switches and I tried pushing them all. One closed the door so I didn't close that one again, and the other one closed the window. I tried it again and it made it go up and down again. And on the third attempt it opened. I saw these guys in white suites and I decided to attack them. I grabbed them with a giant white hand that I had and they shrunk. The next one I just saw if they would attack me. Turns out they just sat there. So I found a door that I decided to go in and when I got in I looked at the room and I saw a bed, I thought "might as well try sex again, the dreams going to end one day anyway." So I went up to the door that I came in and I tried to imagine what some broad looked like. And said that she would be behind this door when I open it. And some ass hole appeared there. He was trying to get in. I said "hey dude, could you stand behind that door. Thank you." And I closed it on him. The second attempt was a failure too. The same guy was there so I went to the other door that I found because the door fell down. I said that I wanted a hot girl. And there she was, she was short but hot. So I put her on the bed and told her to give me and my friend a BJ. I didn't atchually know him, but whatever. I blinked my imagineary eyes and she disappeared. I was like "not again." I tried to bring her back, but instead I just lyed down and imagined her giving me a BJ. It felt good, but right after that I woke up. I felt like I almost cummed. I was like "oh crap" and checked, but it's all good.

      This one was way better than the other one. And I've decided that flying and destroying stuff is alot more fun than sex. I'm gonna try water bending next time. Yay.

      Longer, but not by much. Lucid. Was in a place that looked like Wasteland from Modern Warfare 2, and I saw my friend and I was hugging her, and her parents started to have a fight with mine. I first tried very simple mind control in my dream and I made my friend who was walking away from me come back for a hug. After a while of our parents fighting I woke up.
