[size=18]New Audio File - Success! 04/29/06

ZenVotex created a file that I requested with his text to speech program. I added some whitenoise and touch of scapes and drones. My 3rd night of testing was a great success. My MAC alarm was set to play the file at 3:00AM. It started playing but I woke and went for a bowl of cereal. After I return back to sleep shortly I had notice in my dream I was sitting in some sort of shopping cart. I heard the voice telling me I am in a dream; I instantly knew I was dreaming. So I had fun with the cart and starting going very fast over hills and eventually started flying it. Well after that I had a false awakening and later dreamed that I helped my friends with some candy that was supposed to help you do reality checks. On the candy they read all the statements that the audio file was saying. This lady was reading them outloud and once again I was lucid. I think at this point I was really on the verge of awake and sleep but I was still dreaming. I looked at my hands and they were almost translucent. The file has a trigger to remember to rub your hands to keep the lucidity and I did. It was really dark in the dream and I was feeling my body go numb and lost control over it which to me was sleep paralysis.

Notes:
I've always had great success with audio files inducing lucid dreams. You just have to train yourself to listen to the voice.

[size=18]04/16/06 - Table top Transport

I was in a wierd dream where my friends and I were using a table to somehow teleport (if you will) to different locations. I don't remember exactly why we were doing this but it was of great importance. So we all sit at the table and put our hands flat on the table and all of the sudden you feel your body and the table spinning real fast. After we arrived at this point I knew I was dreaming. I did the reality test and looked at my hand. My fingers were un-even lengths and one was backwards. So now I knew I was dreaming I decided to show off in front of my friends. We were out side waiting (for what I'm not sure) so I sat down indian style and concentrated on levitating. I started to float and my friends noticed and started freaking out. I told them this is a dream, that's how I can do this.

[size=18]My Old House - 01/17/06

Well this was in the late morning but I remember walking down my old street and looking at something that was supposed to be my old house, but it looked completely different. I instantly knew I was dreaming. The blue sky and clouds looked really vibrant which also assisted in my knowing I was dreaming. I approached the house and went inside. Inside it looked a small club or bar. The guy ask me to pay cover and I think I was with someone but I don't remember seeing their face. Then he asked me how much I was going to tip him, being very forceful and perhaps he was going to kick my ass if I didnt pay extra. His other friends got in on it as well.

At this point I believe I woke up but shortly re-entered the dream and was lucid again. I was outside saw the house again but it looked different on the outside. I was running outside and jumping huge fences from house to house then I realized why don't I just fly which I jumped up and started flying for a while. Eventually somehow we ended up in a chase with some people. I was trying to use my mind and create weapons like a gun but I wasnt successfull. Normally in my lucids I make a point to do the rubbing hands technique to keep lucidity but this was the first in a while where I never did which was a bad idea.

[size=18]More Flying - The Superman Complex

I was in a dream and noticed the vivid colors while I was going down in glass elevator; similar like the end scene in vanilla sky. Except this elevator had bars. Because the visuals were so vivid and colorful, I realized I was dreaming. I slowed down the elevator with the thought, and with a motion of both hands I separated the bars. I started to float out of the elevator and began slowly floating and flying. I though to trigger the theme from Superman and it begin playing. I tried to play music in mind previously in a lucid but with no success. I'm going to try to continue to use this skill I find it interesting. The next scene I remember doing slow-motion acrobatics in front of some people, I dont know who they were or why they were watching me. (i've done this previously in LDs)

[size=18]Dream Characters - 12/19/05

I'm leaving the details of the dream in short but I found out that I was staying at a house that was about to have a big drug deal go down and the police knew about it. Therefore, I realized I woudn't ever be in a situation like this I became lucid. I decided to ask one of my dream characters who they were and what they represented in my sub-concious mind. When I ask my sub-concious mind these sorts of questions I usually get cryptic answers back. This one character said that he "represented my resources!" I'm not quite sure what he meant but I find it interesting.

Type: DILD.
Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

This was one of those really annoying lucid dreams.

I was outside my grandfather's house, all the way out in British Columbia. There wasn't really a front yard, just a bunch of smooth pavement and then a wall of round stones that was a few feet tall; it circled all the way around the house. Behind the wall were average trees that people would have in their front yard. I didn't look behind me to see the house itself, but from the setting I knew I was there.

The problem with this dream was that my left eye was fully open but my right eye was half shut, and the remaining vision in it was cloudy and dark. I tried to pry my eyelid open with my hands but it didn't work; I was basically grasping thin air, as if I was translucent. When I did manage to feel my eye, it was smooth and felt almost like an egg, which freaked me out.

I then became lucid, and frustrated at the same time, because I knew from previous dreams that I wouldn't be able to fix my eyesight. That was bad to think about, and I realized that, but it was so annoying at the moment. "Eff my eyesight!" I shouted. "Dream, fix my eyesight for me," I commanded into the air, and then waited for something to happen.

Nothing.

Not only was I lacking control, but I had to wander around the dream without being able to do anything.

There was an aged Indian shaman here wearing a hat and looking at me with a very intense gaze, I wondered who that was and why he was here while Tigress didn't seem to be. Since the man seemed so focused on me, I walked over towards him… I recognized his energy. Somehow, instead of ending up in Tigress' dream, I had ended up locating don Juan…

I surveyed my surroundings a bit more, searching for any sign of why I had ended up here instead of where I had intended to go. Don Juan was silently watching me as if he was expecting something interesting to happen, such as me growing wings and suddenly flying away, I figured I could make that happen, but I wanted to know what was going on here. So I went over closer to don Juan and asked him if he knew why I was there, I had not intended to be there. He asked if I wanted to be elsewhere, I said yes, I had dream goals I was completing that included meeting Tigress for a shared dream since we're still working on a confirmed one. He said I didn't need to be anywhere else, I needed to be right here, right now, to stretch my mind outward into the other realms because a mind that is not stretched will collapse in on itself. I was most likely giving him a blank look, since I didn't know where all of that had come from or what the purpose was, then he said I obviously wouldn't see it until it was right in front of me, so here it is.

The scene around me shifted completely to something a bit disorienting, but I focused and was able to get my bearings… I will try to relate it as clearly as possible. There were now four separate scenes going on around me all at the same time, all different… two of the scenes were similar to each other, the other two were also similar to each other, but the two pairs were vastly different. I was now standing at the entrance to a small village (the entrance to a grave yard) (the entrance to a volcanic cave) (the entrance to a park) where I was looking at Callisto from the Xena series (Demona from the Gargoyles series) (a demonic looking Callisto) (a zombie Demona) with an army of raiders (zombies) (demonic entities) (more zombies) following them. Now that I think the complexity of these parallel events is conveyed sufficiently, I will split the four separate dreams out…

*Callisto's Party*
I was at the entrance to a village like those found in RPG's. I was looking out of the village at the road leading into town, it looked like the main road going into town and through the village. This road was now blocked by a woman warrior and a group of ruffians that looked like a street gang decked out in leather and spikes. Now, for people reading this dream that didn't know already, Callisto is the first person I ever used my soul healing on, that was when I was just discovering the ability. Callisto had been driven insane by the violent deaths of her family and at this point is filled with nothing but anger, hate, and a lust for revenge.

So I knew what to do about this. Callisto ordered her goons to attack the town, and leave no one alive… or maybe leave one alive to tell everyone that she would keep killing until Xena showed herself. The raiders moved towards the village, I formed my Witchblade sword and attacked the raiders. My Witchblade armor blocked their attacks, my Witchblade sword cut through their armor, and with the speed I got training with Vegeta I was fast enough to keep them all out of the village.

When all of the thugs were dead, Callisto was still in the road looking exasperated. She said she should have known better than to think anyone Aries could dig up would have any skill, all of them losing to one woman, who did I think I am, Xena? She moved in and attacked me, saying she was clearly going to have to do everything herself. I fought back in defensive mode, just blocking her attacks and not attacking her in return. I focused on the song Until It Sleeps by Metallica, which I use to put hatred and anger and a need for revenge to rest. The song played through and had a visible calming effect on Callisto, she no longer looked as crazy as she had just moments ago… She looked a bit disoriented, which is normal for someone who has just had their heart healed, then she looked at me strangely and said she had been wasting her time chasing Xena when she should be following up the rumor that her sister still lived. She mounted a horse I hadn't noticed until now and rode away.

*Demona's Hoard*
I was at the entrance to a graveyard that was filled with zombies, more zombies were clawing their way out of the graves, all of them were filthy and decaying. Only one person there was still alive, and that person was Demona from the animated series Gargoyles.

The zombies were gathering around Demona as if waiting for orders of some kind, she indicated the gate to the graveyard where I was standing and told the zombies to spread their curse until the whole of humanity had been destroyed. The first thing I thought of was that it was good she was only after people… but that wasn't even the point. The point was she was filled with anger and hate, and she needed to have her heart healed just as her twinners had needed when I was finding them long ago. I had to fight my way through the zombie hoard to get to Demona, but zombies have never given me much trouble, and I used my Witchblade sword to cut through them all until the zombies were dead… again… and I was facing Demona. So now I focused on Until It sleeps, which is the song I always used to use on Demona's twinners when I found them, evading Demona's attacks as I used the song spell. When it was finished, Demona looked visibly calmer and somewhat disoriented. Without a word she took to the sky and disappeared from sight. Though she hadn't said anything I was confident her heart was now free from hate.

*Aries' Army*
I was at the entrance to a large cave that was illuminated with a strange red light, and it was filled with people who looked sort of like humans but not quite. Something was off about them, that was it… they all had pale gray skin and glowing red eyes, they all looked possessed. They were also all stamping their feet and growling and snarling in a menacing fashion, they were clearly ready to go and just needed to be given the sign to move out. A woman emerged from the middle of the group, it was Callisto off of the Xena series, but there was something wrong with her, too. She didn't just look crazy, she looked totally demonic with glowing red eyes, actual horns protruding from her head, although those were small, and a fiery aura around her, she indicated to the demonic army to go forth and burn everything to the ground, let no living thing remain, this world would be hers now, and she would remake it in her own design, but one exception… bring Xena back alive, she had special plans for Xena, then she laughed an evil sounding laugh.

Since these people all looked possessed, the first healing song I thought of was Liberate by Disturbed, although I have never actually used that spell on Callisto that I could remember. So as I was standing in the cave entrance, completely confusing the possessed warriors as to who would be stupid enough to do that, I focused on Liberate. The song played, and I focused on defending myself as the possessed warriors were trying to kill me. I didn't want to fight them if they were being controlled against their will… The spell had its intended effect, the possessed soldiers stopped attacking me and looked disoriented. Due to certain parts of the Liberate song, "All the hate in your heart will be leaving you blind!" and "To take away all the hatred that darkens the light in your eye!" it also had the effect of cleansing the hate and anger from Callisto's heart. This spell didn't go unnoticed, however. There was a flash of fire and Aries appeared, looking the way he looked on the Xena television show, and he looked angry. He was looking around the room, asked the warriors what they thought they were doing, get to battle! A few of them seemed energized by the thought of going to battle, most of them said there was no reason to wage war. Aries said they should wage war because he commands it, but there was apparently enough of the healing energy still in them that they could not be controlled so easily.

Aries rolled his eyes with obvious annoyance and then said they should kill the bitch, pointing at me, he added that if they needed a reason why he had a large bag of gold to go to whoever got my head first. Most of the warriors left, some of them attacked me, so I figured they were fair game since they were acting off their own greed this time. I quickly dispatched them with my Witchblade sword, Callisto killed a couple of them, too. Now Callisto was mad at Aries, angry at him for using her and tricking her, Aries just said that he knows she likes to be used and abused. Callisto said she would not allow Aries to use her any longer. Aries said then both Callisto and I would die. He said we should know better than to fuck with a god. I said I didn't see how anyone so pathetic could pass for a god, but whatever. Aries was using dark energy, as was to be expected, and it wasn't very stable, which was also to be expected. So the plan would be to hit him with light energy. He was throwing fire with his hands, I used my own fire spell, but used pure light energy on it. The light energy surrounded Aries, clearly draining his energy. When it was done he was pissed but also looked quite weakened. Then a small imp appeared in a burst of fire beside Aries, trying to get his attention, Aries asked what in an annoyed voice that made the imp flinch. I couldn't hear much of what the imp said, but it had something to do with Hades… Aries then told Callisto and me that we were lucky, he had pressing matters to attend to, but our time would come and we would be begging for mercy. Aries and the imp both vanished in a blast of fire.

*The Zombie Queen*
I was now at the entrance to a park at night, there were dim street lights illuminating small areas of the park just enough that I could see movement. I used my ocular Borg implant to enhance my vision so I could see well in the dark and then I realized the park was crawling with zombies! So it was time for a zombie hunt. That sounded good to me, so I formed my Witchblade sword and headed into the park taking down zombies one and two at a time as I came across them. I was making my way through the park, feeling out the distinct energy of the zombies and eliminating them, when I came across a particularly strange zombie… this zombie wasn't a human zombie, it was a gargoyle zombie, particularly Demona! WTF? I didn't see how a gargoyle could become a zombie. Was there any way I could fix this? Now that she was already a zombie? I didn't see any way… and while I was thinking about it she was attacking me. I saw no option but to fight back, and I ended up killing her. After that I went through the rest of the park and hunted down the remaining zombies, at least some of which still thought they were hunting me…

*Back to don Juan*
Now I was back in the desert with don Juan, he was giving me an odd look, I asked him if any of those had even been real… he said of course they were real, they were other planes of existence as I well know, so stop playing dumb since I wasn't even doing a very good job at it. He said I had stretched my mind into four different worlds simultaneously, keep it up and this will be possible IWL. I couldn't stop the spurt of laughter before it got out, oops… I hadn't actually intended to laugh in his face… he didn't look annoyed, he just looked at me as if waiting for an explanation of what I had found amusing. I told him that before he wastes any more time on me, he might want to know I can't do shit IWL, so if that was the goal it was pointless. He just shook his head and said I already have power in my waking life, and so does my friend MoSh, all we have to do is allow ourselves to use it, which is the goal of expanding one's mind. He said I am already seeing beings on the shadow plane, getting visions from other planes, how long would I deny the evidence given to me by my own senses? I don't know if the question was rhetorical or not, but I woke before I could answer.

I started off at the mall with a friend(not a dream sign, cause he wasn't someone I actually know). We were walking on a balcony overlooking a cafeteria. Many people were enjoying meals down there. Suddenly, we were pulled into a room. Now, we were surrounded by girls! I liked this at first. Until...
"We're werewolves."one said. Me and my friend freaked out. This was far from good. I was ready to crap my imaginary pants.
"Don't worry. We're not going to eat you...yet."another said. So, they took us downstairs to a storage room. My friend and I sat next to a clothes rack, while two of the girls watched us. Then, I so randomly became lucid without dream signs or RCs! AGAIN! Lucidity was on my side now. Then, the other girls started the girly talk, and the two guards went over to join in on it.
"Let's go!"I said. Luckily, we were next to the stairs. So, we ran up.
"Stop them!"a girl shouted. We had to get out of there fast. My friend tripped on the stairs.
"Get up!" I said.
"No! Go without me!"he replied. Then, the girls got him. Too late now. I ran out to the balcony. I summoned a pistol with silver rounds.
"Nobody move!" I shouted. They thought this was a hold up. They ran into a corner and waited. I jumped down into the cafeteria. I landed safely, even though it was like a fifteen foot drop. One werewolf came down. I shot her. Another...and I shot her. A third came in human form.
"Go away now...or die."she said. Then, she flipped me off!
"F*** no." I replied. I fired, and she dodged it. Now she was in werewolf form. I kept firing, and she kept dodging. Finally, one of my bullets winged her. She was on the ground. I pointed the gun at her to finish her off. Then...I dropped the gun. I spared her. I ran off, and soon awoke.

I dreamed I was in a large battle on the highway. We were winning. Suddenly, Godzilla and a giant octapus appeared.We hid in the basement of a nearby building. Then, I suddenly became lucid without RCs or dream signs again! Awesome! I decided to use the closed-eye method again. I believed as hard as I could that it wouldn't wake me up, but it still did! WTF?

I dreamed I was picking up some stuff from a dude's house. People warned me about a thief who was going around. Turns out, the dude was the thief. So, I shot him and called the police. He got arrested. I just so randomly became lucid without my dream signs or an RC! I did the closed-eye method, and awoke! NO!

I started off at my house with a classmate(DS). She went over to talk with my mom. I saw to mini gray spiders.
"Hey bub, you trying to steal my mate?" one of the spiders said(awkward). Then, it became giant. Bigger than me! He picked me up and started throwing me around and biting me. Luckily I had a knife on me. He picked up again, and I couldn't reach it. I finally reached it. I pulled it out, and stabbed the spider's eyes out. He fled shrieking in pain. My classmate(DS) saw me and got help.

Suddenly, I was at a boot camp. A guy bet me twenty bucks that I couldn't shoot a helmet he set up. I aimed, and fired. I hit it, and got twenty bucks. This camp was oddly filled with my classmates(DS). Suddenly, I became lucid without RCing! So, I walked into the cafeteria, and saw that everyone was in a trance. I saw the guy who put them under the trance. I went over and kicked him in his face. Then, I awoke before I could do anything else.

In the first dream, I was trying to make a smore. I had a graham cracker in my hand. I roasted a marshmallow over a few coals, and then smeared in on my cracker. When I turned around and then looked back, it had turned to chocolate. I bit into it and realized that I was without the marshmallow. The chocolate sure tasted good though. I reached for another marshmallow, but then it ended.

Then I was it some sort of sci-fi cartoonish maze thing. It was much like WoW, but with sci-fi buildings. The building was a bright yellow and orange everywhere. I was trying to do something with some other people. Then suddenly I was lucid.

Somehow I had gotten out of the orange hall. I saw that there were 3 other similar hallways that met, though they were seperated by a large gap. I jumped off and flew to the others to investigate them. When I finally got to the last one, it resembled a big arena with many people. At the "stage" there was some giant mechanical thing. The name "Ultimate Monster" hovered over it.

I then jumped down from the platform. From here it was a sunny day. There was water that was a clear blue. I landed on it, and walked on top of it. I then jumped around and did back flips. A few times I went under the water.

Then the dream faded, but I DEILDed back into one. I can't remember what I did, but V and someone else were there.

Then I was back at my non-lucidity. I was with my sister, and apparently taking over some restaurant from some grandfather or something. It was my first day and I was acting as both waitress and cook. I had all these orders and I fumbled to cook them correctly. Some of them included Seafood linguine, a sausage, and some other meat with some sauce. I then realized that the sauce I had made hadn't actually been ordered. I decided to put it on the seafood linguine. I tasted it and thought it was fine, so I sent it out. After they had finished, they wanted the bill. I then realized that no one had left us any menus or price sheets. The lady that had the linguine had a sheet with all the apparent prices written out on it. It was white paper, seemingly written with a sharpie. At the end, the total came to around 26 dollars.

I was annoyed at the end of the "day". I said that I could have done much better if we actually had the menus we were supposed to have. My sister agreed, but I didn't know if she was actually agreeing or if she was disappointed in me.

Then I was in the next dream again, lucid again. I was in a parking lot with some people. I wasn't sure what to do. Then I made a pretend pistol with my hand, and pretended to shoot it. "Pew!" I said. Then a bullet shot out and hit someone. I started shooting some others, and it worked. Then I pretended to have a machine gun, which worked much better with its speed. I ran around and shot stuff with my air machine gun.

In the last dream and DEILD, I was at the orange platforms again. Somehow I knew there were horses somewhere. I searched through the bright hallways, but the dream ended before I reached them.

Dumpster Diving - Completed DEC Advanced Lucid Task!

Well for my lucid task I chose dumpster diving. Santa has elves, he dont need any help - heheh. Well our baby woke us up around 3 for a feeding. So we fed her (put her back to sleep) and I put on my lucid induction mp3 and listened to it for about an hour. I finally knocked back out and in the later morning went lucid. I immediately didnt recognize where I was, I was outside somebody\'s house, whos? I dont know. So I immediately started looking for the dumpster. This whole time I\'m rubbing my hands together so I dont loose the lucidity and some friend (who I didnt recognize) was following me and blabbing about stuff (I wasnt paying attention really). So finally after I go around the outside of the entire house I see the dumpster. I\'m thinking gosh, finally. Seems like it took my mind a while to create it or something. So this thing has like 5 flip top lids I have to get through. When I finally get to the last lid and open it, theres not a bunch of garbage like I expected. I only found a few cleaning products like SHOUT stain remover. I thought it was funny how my mind must have been putting things together, dumpster and cleaning? Hmmmmm. After pulling out a few products I remembered I was supposed to project myself to my friends apartment and describe contents like "real time viewing" So I took and started flying, much later I couldnt find her apartment. Maybe I should have spun there. I always think that if there is astral travel flying seems like the natural way to go.

Later on, I had a false awakening and went lucid again. I was doing tricks for my family in the living room but they werent impressed. I even had Mr. Incredible show up at the door, it just scared my son. Hey I tried to entertain when I have these powers!

[size=18]Wierd OBE / Lucid - 12/3/05

Well I did everything to prep for this but I guess it may have just happened. Before I bed I took some B6, did a light and sound machine session. Then woke up and started playing my Lucid Induction mp3 around 3 AM(I let it looped until the morning). I felt this dream to be possibly OBE feeling / Lucid. I knew I was dreaming; so immediately I was lucid. I saw myself in the bedroom but I was partially leaving my body as it was sleeping. In the corner of the room there was a mirror (note in this room there was no mirror). In the reflection I could see myself sleeping. What was strange was this window was opening and closing and a painting or artwork looked like it was being picked up by an invisible entity/ghost and hitting me over my body. Although I did not feel this attack. At that moment my body got a huge shock/vibration and a couple of visual images (I dont know what they were) and a bright light flashed and I immediately woke up. It sort of shook me up but I thought it was pretty cool!

Additional Comments:
I could hear the mp3 playing during this dream; I didnt loose contact with the sounds.

[size=18]11-28-05 - Giving a Hand!

This was a quick lucid moment this morning but I remember this girl and myself were put on this ride. Some sort of tunnel contraption where you go backwards etc. I don't remember feeling scared but the girl next to me was terrified. She acted like we were being punished or tortured. Well I instantly new that this was a dream and wanted to show her how to get out of the situation. I said "look we can get out of this real easy, this isn't real! Follow me!" So I pulled us out of the pod thing that held us, and grabbed a bar and pulled my self to the platform. She followed me and was very relieved. I said look if this was real could I do this...I jumped in the air and floated at that time I was waking up!
