lucid

I find myself in a void intermission following a dream about progress of one of my students. I feel my dream body in the void and focus on relaxing it completely; part of my mind understands that I will enter into an LD from here. I find myself in a house, and quickly do a noseplug. I breathe and become lucid. I become excited, and focus on my goals and mantra of extending the dream duration. I keep thelling the dream that it will last for an hour. I shout "this will last for an hour" with conviction several times. I continue on down one of the hallways. I feel as though I am in a combination of a house/hotel with many hallways connecting various rooms. I explore for a bit. There is a lot of vividness to this iniitial portion, however *there is a section of the dream around this portion which slipped from memory due to subsquent dreams*. I think back to previous goals once again and think of eating a huge cacao bar and feeling the effects. I'm appreciating the length and stability of the dream and have the thought that it is lasting quite a few minutes. Before I continue on to the goal, the dream fades and I enter a FA.

I added a box fan to my room, since my room gets hecka hot at night, and my ceiling fan is apparently broken. Honestly, I don’t know why I didn’t do this sooner - it makes the room like 20 degrees cooler, and it works really well as a WILD anchor.

Anyway, I took an extended hour-long WBTB last night, mainly because I was incredibly thirsty and spent a ton of time just drinking water. I had a bit of trouble falling back asleep though, so I just paid attention to the whirring of my fan. After a while, I notice that the sound of it has changed to what sounds like an incredibly epic orchestral song. I actually think it’s some music playing on my phone at first, and I’m tempted to roll over and turn it off. However, I have a sneaking suspicion that I’m close to a WILD, so I just wait it out. Next, I begin to see HI of this long highway stretching out in front of me, and I feel like I’m running/flying down the road at an incredible speed. I still feel like I’m laying in bed, but at the same time I feel an incredible rush like I’m actually moving. I maintain focus on the road, until I finally transition fully.

I’m in my parents’ bedroom somehow. I’m kinda tired of all my lucids taking place inside, so I decide to run towards the master bathroom window and jump outside. I’m now flying over my backyard, but in the middle is a really tall tree with berries on it. I fly up to the branches and see a ton of berries that look like purple grapes, though a small percentage of them are colored silver and gold. I grab one of each color to try them out. I pop a normal purple one in my mouth - it tastes like a grape, but not quite as sweet. I eat a silver one, and suddenly I start flying higher and higher uncontrollably. I get too high and the dream starts to destabilize before I can eat the gold berry.

I remain still and DEILD, this time into my normal bedroom. Again, I jump out the second story window, onto the roof of the porch. This time I stop and take a minute to stabilize the dream before I start. I repeat to myself one of my old mantras that was pretty effective for prolonging the dream. “This will be a long, stable, lucid dream.” I repeat this over and over, while rubbing my hands together and doing a few RCs. Eventually the dream feels stable enough. Finally, now I can enjoy my nice luci-

The scene immediately cuts to black, and I wake up. Seriously?... I manage to stay still and DEILD again. I’m in an entirely different scene, being led down this dark alley at night. I think to myself that it looks like one scene from Rick and Morty (I’ve never seen the show, just the occasional gifs that show up on imgur every now and then). I have handcuffs on my wrists, a set of shackles on my ankles connected by a chain, and am being followed by a guard down the alley, who warns me not to say a word, or else he’ll taze me. He leads me towards a building, where another guard is guarding an entrance fenced off by huge metal bars. The second guard opens the gate, and then opens the main entrance door. I’m led into what looks like a huge food court mixed with a Costco. There’s people everywhere, I’ve never seen a Costco quite that busy.

I’m seated at a table, where the guard removes my handcuffs and walks off. Two friends, Ryan and Kelly, from my graduating class are at the other side of the table, and they start talking to me about something I don’t remember. Somehow the subject of the guards is brought up, so I explain the situation to them. I don’t remember why I’ve been arrested, but basically if I try to break the chain at my ankles, an alarm will go off, and tons of guards will storm the area and take me down. Still, I remember at this point that this is a dream, so it might be worth trying to escape, just for the heck of it. The scenario kind of plays out in my head, where I jump and slide over a few product displays in the middle of the aisles while I’m being chased.

I’m broken from this visualization by a third friend, Sarah, who says that one of her professors is trying to hunt her down. She hands me an earpiece and tells me to warn her if I see him. I stick in my earpiece, and get up and walk around (as much as I can with the shackles still on my ankles, of course. I walk over to the deli counter and spot the professor on the other side. I turn to walk away, when I spot him again, this time off in the distance heading down one of the aisles. I look around and see 2 or 3 more clones of the professor walking throughout the store. I get on the earpiece and warn Sarah of the situation, and assure her I’ll try to do my best to hold them off. I prepare to cause a diversion, but I soon wake up.

I miss my DEILD window, so I get up and type out these lucids on my phone. I go back to sleep and have a non-lucid. I’m at some baseball field with my mom, and for some reason we’re trying to track down some person (really specific, I know…). We split up and search separately, but after a few minutes I haven’t found anything. I turn to look at the field, where I see my mom running on to the field towards the pitcher, followed closely behind by security. She’s about to be tackled, so I run out onto the field to save her, telling security that she’s with me. Apparently that makes them stop (dunno what position of power I had that does that though…). One of the security guards is this really angry old black lady, who keeps yelling at me and threatening me. I start threatening her back, until I realize that she’s the person we were looking for. She seems to notice this, and she starts running away, so I give chase. She’s surprisingly fast, so she gets a sizeable lead at first. She runs through several gated areas, and quickly shuts the gates behind her. I don’t even take the time to open them, instead I just lower my shoulder and break them open as I run through them, like I have super strength. I finally catch up to the woman and tackle her to the ground.

I kneel on top of her and hold her shoulders down to the ground, so she has to maintain eye contact. “Tell me what I need to know.”
“You’re not ready.”
“I’m almost 12, I need to know.” Um, excuse me? I’m almost 22…
“I can’t…”
“I need to know about the birds and the bees!” What the heck am I saying?

Just then, there’s a white flash, and I’m back in the food court/Costco. I’m standing at the end of the aisle, while my two little sisters are continuing the dialogue from the previous scene (I don’t actually have any sisters, but apparently it all makes sense because I’m a character in a sitcom or something…). I guess it was just a daydream. Eventually, the conversation ends, so the sisters hug, and the older sister walks over to me. “Go well?”
“As well as it could have, when I got blindsided like that.”
“Well, you won’t believe the daydream I just had.” I begin to tell her as my voice trails off, the camera pans up, and the credits start rolling on the sitcom. There’s that stereotypical audience applause as the screen fades to black.

“And that’s how we end the episode,” I say to her.
“Too cheesy. Not to mention way too meta.” There’s cheesy sitcom audience laughter, and the credits roll again as I wake up for real.

I had an amazing lucid dream last night. I suddenly became aware that I was lucid so I turned to the woman standing next to me and and asked - do you represent a part of me? For the first time in the history of ever one of my dream characters said yes. She said Yes! I said wow really what do you represent? She said "the truth of yourself." I said how does that work? She replied - Ask me anything. SO I said - I've been having an issue with a friend that is really bothering me, I dont agree with what they are doing ... And all of a sudden she yelled "THAT'S YOUR EGO!" Her face was angry and mean. I said , you don't understand this is really bothering me, let me tell you what is bothering me and I started telling her the situation again and she cut me off- She looked at me and screamed "That's selfish! That's your EGO!" Her face even more angry than before. I was taken aback and so I tried one more time. But this is really upsetting me..."NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS! THAT'S SELFISH! THAT'S YOUR EGO!!!!" I was really freaked out and pretty embarrassed. SO I said ...I am sorry

Her face went back to normal and she looked all sweet again and she smiled at me and said ...."That's okay

" WoW! What a cool message from the universe! I totally understand now.

The second part of the dream - the devil was chasing me, I ran and hid and ran and spent most of the dream trying to get away from him. Finally he cornered me and I looked at him and saw his horns and suddenly felt sorry for him because I thought the horns must hurt. I reached up to touch them and my hand went right through them, I said " your not real!" He smiled at me and said, no I'm not.

Dream
I'm walking down the road from where my parents live and I'm near the roundabout that leads to the village. I think I'm pretty damn horny in this dream, and as a result I end up naked and wanting to get off.. But I realize I'm in public, and then that I'm NAKED in public. I feel super uncomfortable but realize it doesn't matter because it's got to be a dream.. There's a super hot chick that shows up and feels my crotch, I feel it's definitely a dream by this point. Me and the girl walk off back up the road away from the village, hoping to find more privacy. I take only 2-3 steps and the drunken-like horny stupor I'm in fades a bit as I don't want to waste my lucidity on dream-sex. I dash off ahead a few steps to get away from the horny gropy hot chick, I try stabilizing but I'm unsuccessful. I slip out of the dream but try to bring it back without success... I think it's partly because of having to wake up at 5:30, it stresses me out because I HAVE to otherwise I won't have time to get ready. Like the feeling of not having enough time, and then things like not wanting to disrupt my sleep cycle for lucid dreaming get pretty annoying too...

Also.. What's up with the naked in public thing? That's a first O_O

I'm walking by a curved window of a large house. I'm practicing awareness in a walking meditation, and glance to the left. I notice my brother working at a desk with a dim yellow light on. I return to my walking meditation, and go to raise my awareness more. The vividness of the ground starts to come out, and I see the intricate small black stones woven into the brown dirt. I head a few more feet then begin to levitate as I turn around. I catch my brother's attention, then levitate more in order to show him my ability. I ascend a few hundred feet, then get the feeling I may be dreaming. I do a nose-plug and become lucid. I have free flight and begin circling counterclockwise around the house/mansion. I think about staying in this dream as long as possible. As I continue circling, I consider changing the dream scene. I gaze out to the forest surrounding the property, laying far beyond in the darkness. Scattered, wispy, gray clouds are present throughout the sky. Once in the back of the structure I finally stay in one place. I get the sense that a storm of some sort is approaching. I think back to the purple reishi I had during my WBTB and wonder if it is influencing the dream in any way. I am feeling a strong sense of contentment and enjoyment throughout this process, and consider making my way to the roof of the house. I feel a sense of mastery with the freedom of flight and levitation. I look down at the dark gabled roof as I'm now quite a few hudnred feet in the air. I'm unable to approach, however, as I feel a force of wind is preventing me from advancing - almost like an outward moving cyclone. A void quickly appraoches and I resolve to hold my awareness through and into the next dream scene. I remain aware, then begin rubbing my hands, reminding myself that a new scene will form. I begin rubbing my feet of my dream body in the void as well. I hold awareness in the void for a minute or so then lose lucidity during a brief segment of a dream before waking.

When I first woke up I remembered I dreamed of my teeth falling out.

Then I took a nap and a few things I dreamed of. I don't know why but I was in a dark place shooting at some lady. She tries to get up but I shoot more...Have no idea why I would be shooting at someone... Then I'm like flying fast on a roller coaster. Its light out. I also see a green bird somewhere else. I'm interested watching the bird.

The dream starts off non-lucid as I am standing outside school talking to friends and one of them was like hey, you're in your underwear bro, and I looked and felt down and he was right. I was only wearing a shirt and underwear, instead of getting embarrassed I just immediately thought "this cannot be real I must be dreaming because a person as careful as I am that tries not to stand out it is very unlike me to make this big of a mistake." Then I thought "well if this is a dream let's find out and I will create things as I go along." I start running down the long sidewalk, cars are honking and people laughing but I don't care and I thought "ok I will run to the side of the building where there is no door but it will be there this time." Boom the door is there and is open, I walk in and at this point everybody is just ignoring me and talking with their friends as they walk to class and then I think "Alright run to English class and I will have a pair of shorts sitting on my desk." I run there and what do you know? there is a pair of shorts sitting on my desk, I grab them and put them on and sit down. Here I "wake up" and sitting in English class, I must have dosed off so I turn and start talking to some of my friends about the dream and I say "I have lucid dreams all the time." Which is a lie it is to and few between. and at this point I really do wake up.

Dream - Lucid

It was the zombie apocalypse. I don't remember who it was that I was with, but it was a group. We were living comfortably in a house, feeling quite safe. I remember seeing my bedroom, one I shared with a young girl. It was clean and the queen-sized bed looked comfortable and inviting. Next to the bed I saw a nightstand with a lamp on it.

However, we were moving. I was then looking at an area from above. Things started to look like Roller Coaster Tycoon 4 (mobile version), in that I could place different buildings in an area that had roads laid out. This is where we were moving to. I "placed" buildings from my above POV, as if I was simply playing a video game.

I was then back in my regular view. I was with the group inside a building that we were scouting for zombies. I was sitting on the floor with a couple others, while the rest stood. I saw two, one I distinctly remember being a female with short brown hair pulled into a ponytail and a messed up mouth coming behind some of my friends. I warned the group. They moved aside. I'm not sure what happened to the other zombie, but the female one was going for me. She came at me and was on me. I was keeping her from biting me, but only barely; I really thought I was about to get bit. Then, one of the people that was there with me, a guy, slit his own throat and used his blood to save me from the zombie; something about the blood killed the zombie. I looked at the guy who saved me, and aside from a slightly bloody, drippy slit in his neck, he was totally fine.

At some point, I thought about the fact that we were moving, and I wished we weren't because we were comfortable and happy where we were before.

I then was talking to one of the girls that was with me. We were talking about whether or not we thought the zombies were increasing in number or decreasing. She said
"Oh they are definitely dying."
I then remembered that I was "back" at the beginning of the apocalypse, though everyone else was just at the beginning and was never at the end with me. I thought about the female zombie who almost bit me and noticed how "freshly dead" she still had looked. I had been at the end of the zombie apocalypse previously, and started to explain to the girl how I knew that things weren't going to get better yet.

I woke up for over an hour and struggled to go back to sleep. When I finally did, I had an interesting little lucid moment.

I felt myself falling asleep, the head buzz feeling came over me, and I saw a moving picture in front of me, like a movie screen. It reminded me of a country western almost; there was a desert and the sky was pink and orange as if the sun was rising or setting. There was no sound. It took up most of my vision, but I wanted to go into it and get a LD started. I entered the moving picture, and wasn't sure if that would make me wake up or if it worked. I started to see that I was submerging myself in this world, but after that, I lost it. Not even sure if I woke up or continued to dream or not.

My daughter had pooped in her diaper and it was leaking onto her clothes.

My husband got onto me about not packing up my books like I said I would. (I fully expect this to happen IWL, as I did not pack my books last night like he asked).

I find myself standing standing in a yard area resembling my childhood home. I realize I am in a dreamscape, and take in the surreal environenment and the slight glow to all it's contents. There is a dim blue pervading the entire scene, providing that extra "LD" quality to the whole thing. In front of me stands a tree in the shape of an upside-down bowling ball. To my right is a two story structure with a small squar table set in front. To the left is a very dark body of water with a row of dark shrubbery behind. I feel that going to the left may destabilize the dream, and I decide that I want it to last a long time. I turn to the right and head toward the square table, aware that there is a set of white balls on them resembling pool balls. I am aware that they serve some sort of function, and am interested to go over and find out what they are for. As soon as I start to head over, the dream abruptly ends and I wake up.

I was a man as for my name i don't know I was betrothed to a women named Mikayela. Mikayela was a short woman with emerald green eyes and long brown hair. My wife and i were arrested for treason. For what kind of treason i do not know. Armored guards arrested us and tossed us in a joint cell. The room seemed to be made out of brick and concrete. The door was huge wooden. The door was oval shaped and it had iron reinforcement all over it. There was a separate cell in the large room it was small. In that small separate cell was a small rectangular window. It never provided any good light since it was all dirty and looked burned with haze. Other light sources were the two wall ordainment candles as well as the opening on the door. The floors were filthy and has what i assumed was dirt grime and saw dust with hay. one night while i slept Mikayela was escorted out of the cell. Three days and three nights went by until i saw her again. The guards brought her into the room but they put her into the small cell. As they entered the room they dragged her in her body was limp and her hair and clothes disheveled. Her leather boots scuffed and scraped on the floor as they dragged her in. As soon as the guards left i ran panicked to the cell falling from haste. I stood up then rushed over to the cell. I drew closer and i could hear her whimpering and crying distraught. Her backed faced me and i reached my hand through the bars to grab her wrist. "Why do you cry love?' I murmured worriedly. Her voice cracked with and broke all word she attempted to speak came out in distressed whimpers. Her body shook and i wrapped my arms around her. Her quivering lips were so loud they were audible. "Beautiful tell me whats wrong." Mikayela sucked in air."Dont call me beautiful i feel disgusting." Mikayela curled into a ball as she shivered. "Mikayela no matter what has happend ill still love you." She tilted her head against the iron bars between us. Peering at me with one tear filled eye. Even with messed up hair and blood shot eyes. She was beautiful and her blood shot eye made the color of her green eyes pop out. She swallowed and licked her chapped lips. What she would say next would kill me inside. Filling me with fury and blood lust. "Lllove theyy took me to the head guards quarters and he took me against my will." Mikayela looked down away from my gaze in shame. She clutched her stomach then attempted to speak once more. "Im scared for something i hadn't told you. I'm 1 month pregnant with our child. I don't know if the child is alright the guard beat me when i struggled." She fell to her side and broke out into loud sobbing. Rage filled me and i began to seeing red. I went to the wooden door and began kicking and punching. Screaming at them to let me out that id kill the head guard. The door opend when i became tired. I was no longer facing the door when three men entered. Two of the men grabbed me and the third man held a hammer. He walked behind me and bashed me atop the head. Everything began ringing my vision blurred i saw red then blackness.

I find myself in a bed in a room that feels normal to me at the time. I have the intent to leave my body and enter a lucid dream so I imagine my limbs moving from my body. I move my legs first, then my arms. I find myself standing up next to the bed, facing the door, lucid. I realize I'm in a different room. Another door stands on the oppositve side of the room, across from the foot of the bed. My brother is in the room, but I don't interact with him. Instead, I make my way through the door, and begin thinking of what I should do. I think to myself: 'I really need to pee' then realize: 'No! Bad idea! lol. At the time I have a strange impression that I had just seen a movie (upon awakening, it seems it was a memory from a dream I had just before the lucid began). I continue on to a narrow corridor with a ceiling ~4 stories tall. Doors lay on either side, but I continue on straight ahead, beginnig to fly upward as I go. My brother follows along as I enter the expanse of the mansion. I continue on to two massive room separated by a massive wall. I continue to the right and enter a massive room. I look toward the far wall and notice a bookshelf with four racks. On the third lays a row of books with spines colored from white, to black, to red mixed in-between. I tell myself that the book I pull out will have an important teaching for me (part of one of my dream goals). I move my gaze down the row of books and select one toward the middle with a red spine and gold lettering on it. I slide it out, but the top line reads something like: S O; the next line reads something like D R G T. I reason that it is gibberish and decide not read the following lines or open the book. I return the book, fly up toward the top of the ceiling while turning around. I look down and notice my brother standing on the bottom. The dream quickly fades and I wake.

I am so happy right now. I just experienced a lucid dream that lasted around 1.5 hours. I woke up at 10 AM and went back to bed and lucid dreamed until 11:30.
Here's how it went down.

**Warning, lots of sex**

I was at the old cottage with Melanie and Jake. We were looking out at the water, and in the middle of the lake where there would usually be the islands in the distance was a massive white and red castle of Indian design. Melanie said "it's amazing how fast that thing was built here." As I was looking at it however I had a moment of peace, and as I do nowadays in most of my peaceful moments, I look deeply at my surroundings. I knew that castle was impossible, so instead I looked at her and said "that's because it wasn't built. That was a dream castle, and we're in a dream.

Shivers.

I look around and they don't believe me. Of course they don't, this is their world. We begin walking past the cottage to the garage, and I am astonished at the reality of it all. I grab Melanie by the arm and lead her into the garage. We start to kiss after a moment and she is getting excited, but I just really jump the gun and whip it out. She is shocked and starts having doubts. She leaves the shed and is talking to Jake. I really want to redo that, so I try to create a previous version of her from before we walked in the shed. It worked, but the old one was there and her doubtful vibe spread. I didn't know what to do so I just started snapping my fingers and pointing at things to make them dispensary, and it worked. The multiple versions of Melanie were gone, but I couldn't make a new one appear. When I went in the shed, Anna was in there. Almost immediately her douchey boyfriend (not rob) showed up and they started fucking. I was trying to watch then got pissed and gave up. He came all over her back like a douche, so I looked at her and she knew she was better off with me. She grabbed my hand and we flew far away, to the top of a mountain base\event center. We touched down in a hot springs tub, and were naked. She gave me great head while I stared in amazement. I finished quick so I could go explore and then my mind was blown. I went into an elevator and there I encountered some incredible detail. This massive house that the party was in was beautifully decorated, and not how I thought it would be. Firstly, there were plants everywhere, and in this elevator there was a window with a sill covered in about 60 plants all shoved in. I marveled at the detail of the cacti, the flower petals, and then I stepped out. There was a party there and I was the one in control. The music was just great, and the people there were out of some crazy film. Some wore masks, others regular work clothes, some nothing. I left the party and encountered Rachel Shewfelt, who seemed to be a second person jacked into my dream. She thought she was lucid. I think this branched from my idea last night that every person around Chris and I was either fake or another one of my own lifetimes, and then I realized that it applied to Chris as well. Rachel was governed by the same rules as everyone else, but to convince her she was a dream I had to demonstrate my power. I decided to create invisible walls to box her in but I kept failing. Then I remembered the techniques to increase control. I looked at my hands and saw the same disfigured fingers, and then I screamed "LUCIDITY BOOST!" and slammed my hands into the ground Last Airbender style. This caused a massive stone wall to erupt from the ground, and then I just looked at it and willed it to be invisible and it was. I jumped at it and bounced off. She was amazed, but I then remembered how spinning can boost lucidity, but forgot that it induces change. At this point I'm really crushing on Rachel because she's the confident, social Rachel of my dreams (literally) and I want to have her in full clarity. I spin, look back, and she has been replaced by Gwen from steam whistle. It's pretty freaky how it happened so I go back to the party. I dance a bunch with my buddies, but then Holly and Mom come back to the dance floor and keep showing me my phone and texts from Jake about his mental issues. They convince me that these texts are on my real phone right now and I need to wake up and read them, so I do that. I check my phone and I have a snapchat from him of the Grad skip day party.

Overall this was an incredible experience. I found full stable lucidity for hours and it was the best sleep of my life. I will not finally have the mental fuel for the fire of constantly reality checking. I am so excited for the future of dreaming like this.

I was walking through the woods and came across two bright green identical snakes, I somehow knew that there were many more than that around, as I watched the snakes one of them grew larger and its color changed to teal and black and I was aware it was extremely deadly, I picked up the smaller still green snake and ran until I found stone ruins where a large amount of people were gathered, all of the people seemed familiar but the faces were blurred, I woke up just as one of the people started to speak.

Bed: ~00.00
Wake up: 09.10
Now: 09.25

I don't remember what led up to this point, but I feel the need to perform an RC, because I believe I may be dreaming. I try to push my fingers through my palm and it works. I'm positive this is a dream now. It doesn't take long before I try to conjure up a waterball out of thin air, as part of a bet I have going with werty52. I know I didn't succeed, but I'm not sure if I managed to make something happen at all.



I'm in an ice cream shop. The prices are quite high: it was either €2,- or €5,- for a single scoop. What the hell. There's an older white lady who orders some stuff. There's also a kid who orders something. I think he may have been with me, but I'm not sure anymore.

I'm at a strange school and I'm in an auditorium. I'm looking at people on a stage and see rows of chairs and a few people sitting with me. I get up and leave and start down a hallway. As I'm walking I see the Mega Voyager at the other end of the hallway. He sees me, do an attack pose then starts for me. I see all of his details such as his head, chest, arms and body. I try to run but the gravity is all strange and I'm falling a lot an ended up waking up.
