lucid

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 dream began with me being inside a community-type building. The walls in the building were made of a rosy, slightly yellow brick, as depicted in the image below, with the floor being a lighter eggshell blue, like in a hospital setting. I know there were signs on the walls and overhanging on the ceiling, also like in a hospital, but I cannot recall what they said or even what they were about.

I was walking down a wide hallway in the building, and I suddenly saw the sign for a restroom. I immediately took that route, as I had to fix up my hair or something; however, I can't remember what exactly the reason was. I turned to the left into a narrow, short hallway. There was a men's restroom on the left of the hall, and a women's on the right. I went through the door of the restroom, and looked around. There was no one there; I only look in the mirror to check myself out if no one's around; I'm self-conscious that way. Anyways, I walked forward and looked in the mirror. My brown hair was shorter than it should have been; it was down to my chin instead of my shoulders. This looked bizarre, far too bizarre, and so I became lucid. I thought for a second about what I'd do, and then decided to try controlling another DC and have a fight. Practice some dream combat, or the latter. I thought the best way to do this was to get to my school and summon one of my classmates. I came up to the restroom door again and, before exiting, envisioned the door leading right into the atrium of my school. Here is the description of the school from an older entry.

The main section of the school, right when you walk in, consists of a large, long atrium with a triangular glass roof, which allows for much light to enter the school, making it fairly airy and bright. Classrooms are on the left and right of this atrium, and near the entrance there's a large set of stairs on the right, just before the classrooms begin. The main tones in the building include light beige, light eggshell blue tiles, and accents of paler turquoise, such as on the window frames and stair handles.

I entered the atrium after attempting to summon the location twice; the first time I opened the door, the building was dark-lit and had no similar colors. I'm a perfectionist when it comes to summoning locations in dreams, as it's one of my stronger suits. The second time I got it right, and walked right into the middle of the atrium, coming from the side. It was light, as if it were daytime, and there was no soul in sight. This would make it a tiny bit harder to summon someone, as I felt discouraged for some reason. I looked to the left, down the atrium, and then turned around, expecting one of my classmates to be there; I succeeded the first time. The classmate who appeared was a real person: she had long, solid brown hair down to her shoulders, and she was wearing a bit of makeup, even though she normally doesn't wear anything. She was also wearing jeans and a maroon tank-top, slightly loose, with a white hoodie.

The girl immediately began walking towards me, after I came up with a quick expectation: that she'd start fighting with me. I've been finding it easier than ever to control DCs; this includes their emotions, facial expressions, and overall actions. Since I don't share as strong a belief that DCs are somehow a projection of your conscience, I find it easy to do this type of dream control.

As soon as she got close, probably around two or three feet away, she stopped.

Her first words were, "I'm going to get you back so good right now, and it's not even funny."

Of course, this only made me even more excited. If I hadn't been lucid and that happened, it would have scared me. But, I was lucid, so it didn't. She then lunged forward and punched me, but I recoiled backwards, dodging it. I punched her back and she went flying a good fifty feet down the atrium.

I’m really happy that I’m in a lucid dream and immediately want to start flying. I jump off the ground. I start hovering off the ground for just a moment when my dog jumps up with me. We’re rising off the ground, soaring in the air. I am so happy how vivid everything is. The weird thing, this has never happened before, I was completely aware of my body sleeping, but I could still feel my dream body.
I came back down onto the ground for a moment. There were some dream characters standing around my car. “Look what you did,” one of them said, opening my drunk. A cat was in there. They said it had been starving in the trunk of my car.
“Nope,” I said, “I’m dreaming, I can’t feel bad about that.”
It was a relatively short lucid, but every detail was so vivid, it almost seems more real than my entire day yesterday.

Chemistry Class

I was in chemistry class(this is my second LD that started in chem class..) when I realized that I was lucid. I looked down at my hands but they looked normal. This didn't stop me though. I looked around and noticed that everything was exactly the same as real life. I was sitting in the same seat. I got up, kind of nervous that maybe I wasn't dreaming, but went up to the teacher at the front of the class and said "I don't care!" because she was talking about some boring chem stuff... In reply she said "Why?" and I said "Because I'm lucid dreaming!" and she started saying stuff but I ignored her and started trying to figure out what to do next. I attempted to fly right there in the class but that didn't work. I didn't want to lose my dream so I just kept myself calm and walking around the classroom for a little while. Then I decided to go outside and attempt to fly. The fastest way out was the window, so I went over to it and gave it a good kick, which broke it. I went through it and jumped out of it, attempting to fly, which worked a little but then I floated back down to the ground. I don't remember what happened after that.. but I don't remember waking up or anything.. I must have just lost the LD.

4 People 1 Bike

I was at my house one afternoon when three of my friends showed up, including one of them that I don't like too much, wanting me to take them to the store. I was sick of taking them to the store because they always wanted a ride from me and I felt like a taxi driver. I agreed to go anyway, but only because I wanted to get some ice cream cones from the store. We went outside on the driveway and sitting there was a red bicycle. We decided to take that to the store. I sat on the seat while one of my friends stood on the metal things in back(i don't know what they are called..). Somehow, my two other friends managed to squeeze on the bike also. I was nervous when I took off because the bike felt really wobbly. When I went down the bump in my driveway, everyone fell off. I thought that they would want to give up, but they just got right back on the bike and I started peddling down the road. On the way, there was this random kid who stopped and wanted to take our picture. I wanted him to take it because I thought that it was amazing how we could fit so many people on that little bike and I wanted to remember the epic journey. I'm not sure if he actually took it or not, but shortly after that my friends started getting off the bike for some reason and were walking instead. This made me angry because I wanted to continue our epic 4 person 1 bike quest. I don't think we ever made it to the store...


The Party is Over, Kesha


Me and my friend were at a library(not my usual one, some other one that was next to some other stores). I was looking for a certain book when out of nowhere, Kesha the singer showed up and started singing "Tik Tok." I got really annoyed because all I wanted to do was find my book and get out of there, but this stupid ***** was in my way(haha, yes, I really did feel that way..) So I started singing along to her song, but I changed the lyrics to something like "you are really annoying and shouldn't be singing in the library!" It was something like that, but it sounded really good the way I sang it along with her music. I was really proud of myself. That made her leave, which I was happy about. Then I remember going outside to the parking lot. There were tons cops and then my dad showed up, driving like a maniac. I was scared that he would get pulled over for reckless driving, but the cops didn't seem to care.

Fragments

I remember being on some crazy roller coaster ride. I had to go into the back seat because the other seats were either taken or broken. When it started, it kept flinging me off and I would somehow have to get back on.. it was really scary. I don't remember much about it.

I also remember something about jumping into a pool and sinking to the bottom curled up in a ball. When I reached the bottom I didn't feel like moving so I just kind of stayed there...


Friend's house Lucid

I was at Dani's house on a bright summer day. I looked down at my hands and realized that I was lucid. I had 6 fingers on each hand. I decided to go outside and attempt to fly, so I went out through her garage and stood on her driveway, attempting to jump up and fly.


Other Lucid

I also had another lucid in which I was outside and I saw this girl and followed her up a hill.. I don't feel like adding more details.... it wasn't a sexual dream, I just don't want to share it.

For the last half a month or so, I have been waking up early and attempting to WILD. Each time I have failed, but this time I got a DILD at 5a.m. (I attempted a WILD at 4am and fell right asleep). I don't have time right now to list all the dreams I had last night, so I'll just list the lucid one for now.

I was in chemistry class and we were doing a lab. My lab partner was this new girl in my class, who was really annoying and tried to act all cool by doing stupid stuff.. we had to staple a packet of papers together so I got this weird yellow small stapler and stapled them together and the girl said something stupid.. i dont remember what. Then she was like "I can do whatever I want, I'm in a lucid dream." and that got me thinking and I realized "Hey, Im dreaming!" So I did some deam spinning to prevent losing it, which worked for a little while. Since we were in a huge tall building for some reason, I went to one of the wall-length windows in another room and wanted to try flying. I tried to jump through the windows but they were angled weird, like sloped towards me. Each time I jumped, I would bounce right back. So I decided to try to just jump straight up through the ceiling and out the top of the building. I don't think that worked.. I ended up waking up shortly after that.

Finally had some lucid dreams! I don't really feel like explaining them now so I'm just going to be brief.


Spanish Class in the Mall Lucid

In the first one, I was about to return to my eighth hour class. To get there, I remembered my teacher taking me there through a mall last time we went there. So I went into the mall but I couldn't remember which way to go. Then I asked this girl from my class and she said "just keep going that way down the street." She didn't say anything about the mall and I was confused. Then I realized that there was no way you could walk through a mall to get to my class so I knew I was dreaming. I returned to the mall for a brief time before waking up.


Short WBTB

In the second one, I was so happy about achieving an LD that I decided to try again. I got up at 6am the next day to go to the bathroom, then returned to try a WBTB. It worked. I was in this house.. and I don't really know how to- or want to- describe it. Then I was flying around being Elsia for awhile but decided to do something else. I appeared in Criss Angel's room. It was a really long dream in which I was going in and out of the LD and waking life.

Yeah... so those were my brief descriptions.

I'm back . I didnt record any of my dreams while I was up north except for the one I had last night because it was about Criss Angel and I kind of had a lucid. Here goes.


Talking With Criss


I met Criss Angel, at some place.. I dont know where, he was signing autographs. I got his autograph and he actually sat down and talked to me. There were other fans by us, but it seemed like he cared more about talking to me then talking to them.. Thats all I remember. When I woke up, I tried hard to remember it but thats all I could think of..


Gum Wrapper for Bus Ticket

I was in school and I thought "hey, its August!(its actually July though..) we don't even have school yet." But I went to math class anyway and sat by Allie. I thought how weird it was to have math class again with the same friend and same teacher. I realized I only had half my homework done but the teacher said it was okay. When it was time to go home, instead of riding the bus, people rode in vans. You needed a ticket to get it the van. Katelyn handed her a ticket and I realized that I didn't have one. Then I realized that the driver is probably too dumb to notice, so instead of handing her a ticket, I handed her a gum wrapper that was the same color as the ticket. I hesitated before getting in the van, but she accepted my ticket and I got it. Thats all I remember..


Short School Lucid


Then I was in the school hallway and I realized that I could be having a lucid dream if I wanted too(its almost like I kind of knew I was dreaming the whole time.) I knew my dream was going to fade away so I started running because I thought it might help. Then I spun around but I could tell that it was fading. Pretty soon I could here my friend, Brittany turning around in her bunk bed and I knew I was awake.


Friend Driving

I went back to bed at like 9:40am. Had a dream I was in a car on the freeway with Ali and Katelyn. I was in the back seat and Katelyn was in front and Ali was driving but the wheel was on the right side. She was a new driver, not that experienced(in real life she hadnt even taken the driving class yet..) She avoided an old man walking across the street. Next we saw a policecar. She slowed down to 30mph when the speed limit was 35mph because their was a slow car in front. Then, the car in front of her rammed into the car in front of it. Ali quickly turned the car around it. "Man I can't believe all this stuff I have to deal with.." she said.


False Awakening

I remember going downstairs in my cabin(this was a false awakening) and I was hungry so I grabbed some cheerios but didn't really want them so put them back. I looked at the clock and it said 11:30 or something.. Then I actually woke up. I thought it was 11:30am in real life so I got out of bed and went downstairs, thinking Brittany would already be awake and wondering why I slept so late. But it was actually only 10:15.(she sleeps until 10:30).

I finally had a (very short) DILD!!!!

Monica Fragment

I really dont remember that much.. I remember these two guys chasing eachother by a barn in the woods... or something like that... and then a friend named Monica showed up and I dont know.. I was Elsia Star.. and something happened to me.. I dont remember what.. well anyway she called 911 for some reason and said "can i request an ambulance?" but one never showed up..I wasnt actually hurt though and I think she knew that. then later she said that we need to visit the (something, idk what she called it..something up in the sky). I tried to fly up with her but it didnt work. then the next thing i remember is standing by a lake with Monica and the lake was covered with clouds and so was the sky. then..

i realized I was dreaming.. but i wasnt sure if I wanted to have an LD because then I knew that this wouldnt seem real anymore.. and I would know that none of this is actually real. I had a choice: have an LD or just forget that I was dreaming and continue with my amazing adventure. Since I hadnt had an LD in a long time, I decided I'd give it a try. Even though I knew I was dreaming, I did a reality check and looked down at my hands but they looked normal. I still knew I was dreaming though. I started loosing the dream so I tried dream spinning, but I started hearing music, repeating itself over and over, and it was waking me up.. I thought it was coming from the real world.. but it was actually my dream music waking me up. Thats all I remember.

OK so it was a school day and a friday. I woke up at 5:30am and immediatly turned on the news channel to see if they closed my school because it was a blizzard outside. And of course we did. Snow day!! Anyways, I went back to sleep and tried a WILD. It worked right away. I appeared in this creepy place with dark trees and I looked down at my hands and they looked odd so I knew I must be dreaming. Then I transported myself to the high school pool for some reason and I started drowning.. thats all I remember.

It was a very short LD and very random, but better than nothing.

First Memorable LD: 8-20-08


okey so heres how it went:

i woke up at 10am one morning an decided to try to LD. I really didnt think it would work though. My mind just kinda imagined a room and all of a sudden I was in it! It only took like 1 min. to get into an LD!

So anyway, I appeared in this store, I think it was a bookstore or something. I started getting too excited and I started loosing it, so I tried dream spinning and it worked! Then I went outside and jumped 10ft in the air. then I decided to try to walk through a wall so I walked through a door!! I was like "whoa, this is so cool! i wonder if i can meet Criss Angel (a magician who is my hero and ive wanted to meet him FOREVER.) and i thought of him and he appeared!!! I hugged him and asked for his autograph but then some loud sounds woke me up, my mom.

but it was the best ever!! I hope i can meet Criss again in another LD sometime. I'll keep workin on it!!

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

I was in a friend's house. The floor throughout the entire place was dark brown hardwood, polished nicely, and the walls were beige. It looked like a fairly modern house; the living room contained two dark burgundy leather sofas and a loveseat, and a brick fireplace, slightly misshapen. I was walking around looking for my cat, Meepy. I found her eventually though, which was good. I was picking up large vases and even the couches looking for her, and found her underneath a large tan vase, more round than tall. How could she be hiding under a vase? Maybe she flattened herself out. I dunno. It didn't occur to me that this was strange for a while, but then finally I became lucid.

I decided to finally attempt the Advanced Task for June 2010, creating and controlling fire, also known as pyrokinesis. This would be easy, I knew, because I had done it before. I used my usual spin-around-to-summon technique to summon a cigarette, sizzling on the hardwood, and then used telekinesis to make it float in the air. Just to have a bit of fun, I sat down cross-legged as the cigarette floated up, and I began to float too. It took a bit of effort to keep myself up, but it worked. Both I and the object were floating now, and I was still floating as I held my hands out, pulling a stream of fire from the cigarette, reeling it in using a pulling gesture. It touched my hands and looked more orange than red now, and also looked more like a ribbon. Regardless, I completed the task.

I eventually lost lucidity, going on to sit on the ground, petting Meepy. After doing this for a little bit, I went to where the fireplace was to find someone sitting on the brick, crying. He looked up and I realized it was one of my friends. "Why are you sad?" I asked, sitting down beside him. "I don't know," he told me.

Let's starts with the dreams I've had the past few nights. These aren't as clear as I'd like, but I'll do my best to recall the details.

5/31/10
The only scene I have is this one. I was standing at the shore of a small lake, and the sun was going down. The sky was mostly dark, except for a small patch of color on the horizon. There were lingering bits of orange, pink and yellow, but soon there was nothing but the moon in a starlit sky.

It was then that I realized that there was a man and a woman lying down at the edge of the shore. They held each other close until the sun was completely gone. Then the man broke free from the embrace and started convulsing. His figure grew and contorted. His limbs twisted in strange angles and his head expanded until it burst into the head of a daisy. His feet took the form of petals on a stem. What was left after the transformation was an intensely masculine figure with green skin, petals for feet and an enormous bloom where the head should be. The man and woman continued their embrace, and I awoke in a very confused state.

6/2/10
Last night's dream was frustrating, because it was so close to being a really great LD. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The pool opened up in my neighborhood on Monday, and in my dream I was walking back from a swim. The street I live on is a cul de sac, and as I turned on to my street I almost stopped in my tracks. There was music coming from the top of the street, and as I got to the end of the street I found twenty or thirty open, black instrument cases ranging in size from trumpets to baritone saxophones. They were just lying in the street, but since it is a cul de sac I didn't care to move them.

Just to the left of the cases was a very large circus tent that took up the rest of the end of the street. The music I had heard was coming from within the tent. I walked closer to it and saw that it was made out of blue plastic painter's tarp. I walked towards an open seam of the tent to peak in. Inside I saw a man in his mid twenties practicing his baton spinning act. His skin was a golden brown, and his hair was cut very short. His clothing was like something out of the Disney movie Aladdin. Pants the were baggy at the feet and close fitting at the waist. His chest was bare except for a light brown vest.

I closed the tent flap and made my way up to the house. The inside of my home had grown exponentially. The hardwood entryway was converted into a viewing space for a stage that was used for some sort of dance. there were about fifteen black folding chairs in the entryway facing the stage. The stage was relatively small, its center point of it was a metal structure comprised of 4 metal poles about ten feet tall, and connected at the top with similar metal poles. I would have liked to see the dance, but it was at this point that I noticed that the walls were covered in the same blue tarp as the tent outside. I made my way into the kitchen. All blue. My dad was there, and I told him that he couldn't do this to the house. He asked me why, and I told him, "Because I'm dreaming, and I'm in control."

It was at this point that I tried to stabilize the dream by saying aloud "Increase lucidity" out loud. Unfortunately, before I could do anything to actually make that happen, the dream disintegrated and I woke up.

I tried to a WILD, and it started to work, because I could feel that my whole body was in a parka and snow gear. I could feel the gloves on my hands, but it was then that my cat started meowing in real life, and I couldn't fall back asleep. So. Close.

The giant mosquito (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

The dream was very long, but I only can remember the end:
I sat outside in front of a big medieval-like house at a row of tables. Other people sat along the tables too. Someone told me, that there will be an eating contest. Everyone got a little, soft bread bun on the plate.
While everyone had problems with eating it, like it was a giant bread or something, I just ate it with one bite. I won the contest.
I wanted to drink something and saw a glass in front of me. I took some very little colored balls out of a very little bowl and put them into the empty glass. Immediately the balls turned into some kind of soda that filled the whole glass.
The guy that sat on the right of me said, I shouldn't use different colored balls at the same time.
Suddenly a mosquito as big as a human appeared. It stand 3 feet away from me and looked at the people sitting at the tables, rubbing its hands.
I was afraid of it ans started hitting it in the face with my plate. He started to get angry. I took a knife and cutted deep long holes in its body. Green slime came out of it.
The mosquito doesn't seem to be weakend by the wounds and started chasing me. I ran into the building until I reached a kitchen and locked the door. A female cook was in there and watched me.
I saw the mosquitos sting (or however its called) sticking through the wooden door again and again. I thought about what to do and suddenly realized, that I was in a situation I experienced already a thousand times in my life: I dreamed of a frighting thing and wished I could awake.
Only some seconds ago I really got lucid and recognized what I just thought. I speaked to the cook: "I'm dreaming! I'm dreaming! This is my dream!" Then I looked to the door and told the cook: "This is my dream, so let this giant mosquito disappear!" After a while it seemed to work. I didn't saw its sting through the door anymore. Just a few holes were left. After that, to get sure that this technique worked, I ordered the cook to let disappear the holes in the door. That also worked. I was happy and thought what to do now. Again I had only these 2 ideas: Summoning Godzilla or some zombies...
I didn't wanted that and wished me a classmate, but while I tried to summon it, I felt how I woke up and then laying in my bed. I tried to get back to the dream, but it didn't work.

Loosing teeth as a dreamsign (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Patrick, Tobias and Kris sat at a table. On the left of me were two adults which started doing it.
Kris asked me, if something is odd and opened his mouth. I looked at his teeth and saw, that a one was missing. He touched his teeth and pulled another two teeth out of his mouth.
Patrick said: "Dude, stop it! They won't grow again!"
Suddenly my teeth got loose and fell out of my mouth until I only had a few left. Then I remembered, that loosing teeth is a typical dreamsign. I already was pretty sure, that I was dreaming.
I looked at my left hand. The first time it looked totally normal. As I watched a second time at it, I had two thumbs (One extra thumb between index finger and middle finger).
"Cool, I'm dreaming", I said calm. My tooth were back to normal again. I said, I would go and went into another room. My parents and my grandparents were there sitting around a table. My father throwed something at me and I catched it. It was a easterbunny with chocoalde and two books in it. The one book was about "Fettfitte" (On English something like: fit fatties) and the other one was some intelletcual one about religions and politics and stuff.
My grandpa had a cake with one candle standing in front of him.
I noticed a little fir tree standing next to the table. Next to the tree was a candle.
I closed my eyes, wished that the tree would get on fire and opened my eyes again. Suddenly the tree was bruning.
Then I woke up.
