lucid

My husband woke me up when he went to the bathroom around 3:15 am so since I had been up reading I had just been asleep about 30 minutes or so because I laid there trying to meditate & think about how to incorporate the TOTM into my dreams after reading some of "The Untethered Soul" by Michael A. Singer.

Spoiler for Spoiler:

Dream #1- I tried again to go back to sleep & failed at the task but did have a non-lucid dream which was nice & vivid. I was in this house w/ high ceilings & was by the beach. It was a really BIG house! I was there with my grown kids & we were just hanging out. My husband was there too. It was really beautiful w/ the sun & waves rolling into the beach. We were walking on the beach & going in & out of the house like we were on vacation. We were getting all ready to go swimming & the winner of the show "The Voice" from last season was there which was weird. I told him to take his shirt off & he told me he only had 2 of them & that I had more. I told him most of my clothes don't fit me because women keep clothes from when they were really skinny just in case they lose weight. Then I realized it was weird I was asking him for the shirt & that he was actually taking his off, lol... I felt bad cuz he was a really heavy guy & probably didn't want to have it off at the beach which was why he was so hesitant. Then I realized I was dreaming & became lucid because Jordan was there & couldn't do anything to stabilize the dream because I had to pee in real life & it woke me completely up so my TOTM failed. But of course I still had to go back to sleep in order to attempt again.

Dream #2- I was dreaming this horrible dream so it may be almost classified as a nightmare in the beginning but changed later on. I was in this town but it wasn't a town, it was in this big place with the structure of isles like a "Sam's Club" so the shelves were warehouse style. There were so many people because like I said, it was like a whole town full of people in there. There were kids & parents & older people. Just all kinds of people! There were just so many of them! At some point I start to realize that the amount of people have diminished just a little bit & everyone there is still going about their lives like we were all little worker bees, so to speak. We are shelving things & pulling stuff off shelves to get them down for other people & families. It was like we were all now living in this "Sam's Club" store because something awful happened outside but I never saw any windows or cash registers. Suddenly I was noticing some jerky movements by some of the workers, kind of like when people in movies are doing shady stuff & they are looking around like they are trying to not get caught so I start to follow a couple of these people & see what is going on. When I get near them I realize that the job itself seemed to change. They were telling people to put these things in there mouths to keep them safe & someone recognizes me & tells me to put one in my mouth so I do. It's like some kind of breathing apparatus that filters stuff out of the air but you stick it in your mouth & it's about the size of a pacifier but it's a rectangle & it's yellow. But then I notice they are putting blue ones in other people's mouths & telling them the same thing but they are taking them into another room, like a storage room & the people aren't coming out. So, I look into one of these rooms & the people are dead! So I'm starting to panic but I realize I had the one that must filter stuff so I'm okay. There is a gas like substance in the air now but they are like clouds in the isles of this poisonous stuff like a fog. So I start looking for places where they have hidden these good breathing things on the shelves & it occurs to me that I'm dreaming because this is becoming all so weird, so now I'm lucid & instantly think that I'm tasting something in small doses. I start to look at my arms & realize I have got to stretch out my arms but I'm in this warehouse & I've already woke up once so I have to do the task in the warehouse for fear of waking up before I complete the task. So I do what I would do in real life if I could actually do this in this sort of situation. I start stretching my arms down the isles & I am reminded of those blow up things out in front of businesses that blown in the wind. It's a guy w/ floppy arms & legs & stuff so it briefly makes me laugh but then I see my arms are just like rubber & they don't hurt or anything but they can still detect these good breathing things some how & I pull my arm & hand back & I've got some in my hand so I go looking for people to give them too. As I'm giving them to some people I have to pull them down with me crouching on the floor because those guys who are killing people almost see me. So I give them the rest of what I have & tell them what I've saw & tell them to help other people & to try & find a safe place to hide. I then go back down a few more isles & realize there are becoming even less people in the store & there is more gas in the air now. I have to crouch down & hide behind things over & over because there are so many of these bad people killing people. Even though I'm lucid I'm thinking man this would be really bad if something like this really happened!. So I see a group of 5 people & they have a couple of little kids so I'm feeling like a super hero now with my long ass arms so I see how far I can reach without being seen. I held on to the end of an isle in case my arm does something weird & I get off balance but that didn't happen. I reached my long rubbery but light feeling arm down the isle picking up the breathing things on higher & lower shelves & I attempt to try to go to the next isle but I stop & pull my arm back. I start to think I have grabbed so many I'm going to drop them. So I pull my arm back & dispense to these people what I have start to look for more people but there are just not many people left but I do find a couple of them & explain all over again what is happening but by now they already knew & just wanted to breathe & get out of there so I stretched out my arm again but this time I made my hand larger because I was afraid this dream was going on for quite some time with me being lucid & it was starting get more foggy in there. It had a claustrophobic feeling now. But, this time since my hand was bigger I was able to hold more so I went all the way down the isle & around it & grabbed stuff off the next isle over first & then came back & grabbed from the isle I was in & I got a bigger handful this time. My arm felt different this time because it went around the corner it felt like it pulled on my shoulder more but more of an upward motion & my arm was kind of like if you had a really long ribbon but not quite that light, more like a kids lightweight jump rope but thicker & flatter. So I have these things in my hands & as I round the next corner I run right into those bad guys who are not so happy with me. But lucky for me, Meesha Cat woke me up & I didn't have to deal with them at all! Meesha is my real life Maine Coon kitty cat who likes to wake me up, each & every day except on the weekends where she wakes up my husband, lol. I also noticed that my mouth tasted like the smell of cockroach traps which was I guess how my brain computed the gas from in my dream so that's Basic Task #1 & Basic Task #2 Complete Complete!

May LDs achieved / goal: 1 / 20

Most of my recall is from the time after WBTB. There was some vague stuff earlier but I did not focus on it.
edit: recalled earlier dream:
+(f) I'm in LL park (down the hill from CH, not my main park, went there rarely), and there are people there (hippies), and a sign up about how hippies created this park (and how it's for hippies?), they're talking about this

I woke around 5 hours (it was already pretty light) and had trouble returning to sleep: active mind, fantasizing, thinking about things. Started to feel a bit sorry for myself, but decided more wakefulness is good, that it leads to lucidity. All I had to do was return to sleep, and I'd get lucid. After a couple of stalled attempts at relaxation I finally dedicated myself to it and got back to sleep and dreamed.

+ I'm sitting in my CH living room on the floor in front of a chair. Long-time colleague MWP is here, and I feel a bit uncomfortable that I didn't invite him to my birthday party last time even though I usually invited him in the past [FALSE]. I turn to my left where an open camping backpack is and I deal out some cards for a game of solitaire. I have about a 4x4 grid of cards laid and and begin to "play" when all the cards lose their grip against the backpack material and all fall out of position down to the bottom of the pocket. "I hate solitaire" I say. I thumb through the cards and look at one in more detail, it is not right, I can't make out either the card's face or it's back. It becomes larger and more colorful, like a multi-colored stained glass "joker" card.

Then the scenario changes to a board game, with this large joker marker and a large ("Oscar" award-sized) statue and a narrator is describing the rules of the game "you have to guess who the (thief?) is"... (don't remember more, or transitions at this point).

+ A series of short scenes:

I'm outdoors and thinking about the experience of the athletes in the recent Russian winter Olympics and how they were saying they really enjoyed the snow, and I see some snowy hills. There are booths nearby, like for outdoor restaurant seating, and at one of them a woman has a scarf/coat draped over the back of her booth and it falls down and gets in my way, I pick it up and put it back on the booth back, she doesn't notice it, and a man (I think her husband?) also rearranges it.

Turkish car rental trick: a narrator is describing that the authorities will be notified: the trick is, if you rent a car in Turkey, you can enter other countries for just a few days for free without any visas. The tour operator is saying "it's the best deal, cheapest way to travel". I see a brochure that clearly has "Turkish" written on the cover along with some other stuff. But what people do instead is they overstay the allowed period, using the rental car policy as a way to illegally remain in a country.

Outdoors daylight at my childhood home (CH) bus stop a bunch of other people get off, including a girl in a short/tight dress and her younger brother, she has to maneuver one leg up and over a barrel and when she does I think I get a flash of her hairy pubic region. This gets my attention and my eyes follow her as she walks away down F towards the LH, I realize she's a bit chubbier than I like.

I'm walking back towards some people seated by the sliding glass door in my CH dining room. I'm specifically going to the dead woman who is seated there to thank her for her earlier assistance (!?!?). She is seated with crossed legs and her hands are folded on her legs in front of her. I lean down and put my hand on top of hers and say sincerely, "Thank you!". I'm a bit surprised when she stands up facing me very close. She's dead but I don't seem to mind, she has no eyes, basically empty brownish slits (or just very small eyes). I realize she's tall. She's as tall as I am or maybe a tad even taller. I say this. I reach up my hand and try to compare the tops of our heads to see who's taller. She's standing really close to me and is obviously interested, I'm feeling very turned on by this. I maneuver her towards the living room so I can grab her butt and pull her against me, it feels really good. I ask her in a sexy voice, "do you want to come outside with me?" She indicates yes. I then whisper some dirty talk into her ear about what I'm going to do to her.

I'm arriving at some registration place with my wife and kids. There are two places, and I remember [FALSE] that the 2nd place line is shorter and/or moves faster, so we go there. I end up needing to register by myself, and I realize I don't have all my documents with me. I need to write (or I see) a driver's license number that I think I recognize as my new driver's license number, a string of letters and digits starting with "C" (at least one 4 in there). I'm moving back to my (wife?) who's at the counters and as I do I realize my shorts have severely bunched up in my butt crack and I'm trying to to the "shaking side step" and reaching back there to pull them out but nothing I do helps they stay wedged in there. I end up leaving the place riding away looking backwards behind me in a speed boat with some hot girls around me.

+ LD #183
I arrive outside CH at night on the street, I'm standing by the stairs to the front door, I see down to my left that there is a car in the garage. In the sky I see bright stars and constellations [completely "normal", nothing spinning or moving like sometimes happens], and I get a sinking feeling when I realize that I came home without my car, that I left it at the registration place. (If my wife learns that I came home without the car I think will realize I left with the girls?).
I'll just have to go back and get it I decide. I can fly there. I wonder if I can fly and I take off flying and
realize I'm dreaming. I see my dream arms stretching out in front of me and notice the perspective is a bit odd. I'm flying up the hill and want more speed and will myself to fly faster but do not go faster. I'm flying over the driveway to some house heading for trees and the owners turn in to their driveway behind me (see the headlights on the trees?) and I resolve to fly faster. I do a "flap" with my arms as against water doing the breaststroke and this propels me faster through the air. OK, if that 's what it takes. I flap a few more times and this gets me going at medium speed which is much more to my liking. I'm expecting to see the former registration area (in the park?) up ahead and indeed there it is. There is a guy sitting at a picnic table slumped over my backpack and I pull it away from him anticipating a fight but he doesn't start one.

Spoiler for sexy time, explicit:

I sit on the picnic table and direct a nearby DC to come and give me a BJ. I spend a bit of time trying to balance attention between the action and the dream, and things stay stable but it's not all that great, so I move on. At another table I find a female toy/doll about the size of a pez dispenser and start getting a BJ from that. It's way too small (and alive? I think it said something) so I reach down and stretch it in order to make it larger and it works and now its mouth can fit over my (ahem). I notice there are some "real" girls sitting at the table leaning over and watching, there hands are stretched out reaching to me and I think woohoo here we go and I move to them and reach to them to bring them to me and

my wife wakes me up IWL so we can get ready. Argh!

Slept in a different place than usual as I was saying. This is a very good place for dreaming and lucidity. My mind did not shift into dreams at all. When I was asleep it just held the same place as I was when I awake. I was very still. I was nervous about relaxing and going of into dream cause it was a new place and I also had a killer headache all night which helped me focus my attention on the present. There were a couple of times when I knew I was asleep but was still I in the same place that I fell asleep in FA and so could have gone off into dream and explored whatever. However I was very happy just to be there and on retrospect this was very helpful. I am always saying how dreaming is not dreaming it is lucidity and here I really experienced that and I am working towards a dream goal of meditating when becoming lucid because I know all the adventures to be pointless, from a dream yoga point of view, and just reinforce bad worldly habits. The next time I am going to trust the lucidity more and do some meditation methods. Looking forward to snuggling up in my new spot again soon. And the stary sky that you and patience were talking about. TOTALLY know what you mean it is like the roof comes of my head and there is so much space and the place where I am sleeping becomes totally safe. Happy Days

I have a FA following a void state from my previous dream. I head to [S] as she gets ready in the morning. Her face looks very real, but I just got up, and something doesn't feel right, so I hand RC. My hands look fine, but something still feels strange, so I nose plug and become lucid. I turn around and decide to head to a brighter environment. I look through the blinds and think "Marlboro...again". The colors are incredibly bright and vivid. The brilliant green and perfection of the grass fascinates me. I see the stone diving board on the edge of what resembles a body of water/simming pool. This area is right up against the grass. I jump out of the window and slowly glide out into the environment. I decide to shift focus to a dream goal. I try to conjure a 'lucidity orb'. No luck, and I'm on the ground at this point. I then try to conjure a stability orb to see if it could help stabilize the dream. No luck with this either. I decide to hold off on other dream goals as I feel teleporting/phasing may make the dream unstable. I want to see how long I can stay in the environment. I have the thought that it's amazing how natural LDers could experience this on many nights. I then think I can't wait to tell my brother about this one. I make my way back up into the air to get a more aerial view - the yard is very expansive. I make my way around a group of trees to the left. The yellows and pinks are simply amazing and appear as vivid as real life. I see a tall black light on the edge of the grass near the trees which is extremely realistic and similar to the one in WL. As I fly my way around these trees I repeat "You've got to be kidding me" as everything appears so super-real. In the moment I find it hard to believe this state exists. The dream feel very stable. I see a shed structure with two trees off in the distance, and I fly in this general direction. The shed structure is a light brown color. Around this point the dream feels as though it is beginning to fade. I quickly come back to WL and do a quick state check for gravity before adjusting anything. It feels like I'm truly awake so I open my eyes and hand RC. I turn to my dog, laughing, and say "You've got to be kidding me, Maya" .

I have a FA and something feels strange. I can't see my hands well, so I nose plug and I'm lucid. The room is very dark, so I continue on to the next. I see that there is a small riffle in the covers of the bed in the next room, as though someone small may be lying there. I become curious to see who is there and pull the sheets back. I don't see a head, and see small clothing, but cannot tell if there is a body inside. I turn away from the bed and head to the window to change the scene. I jump through and fall into a void/blackness which leads to a period of simply holding awareness before the dream fades. There is a strange void transition period I vaguely remember before another FA occurs.

I have never had a dream so real before, i've had vivid dreams and lucid dreams but usually there are tell tale signs so I tell its a dream, the dream world doesn't usually seem or look right. This was all too real, I have never experienced anything like it.

I woke up in the dream, like an obe I guess. I looked around it was morning and I was in bed. The room felt stuffy and I shifted on the cotton sheets slowly waking. I was not in my own room, I could make out the bed in the darkness and vague shapes, tiny slits of light were coming in from the shutters on a window.
So I got out of bed and went over, I pulled the shutters open and was blinded for a second by the light from outside.
As my eyes adjusted, I was taken aback as I looked around in wonder, wt..
I was in a dream clearly, but everything was so real, I could feel the heat in the room, see dust in the air, the cold of the stone floor under my feet, and the view through the now open window.
Outside I could see the wall of a house it was two storey and white, clearly not a modern house. I looked around the room, there was a table and a chair, I could not make out much else.
I felt a strong urge to go out to find someone who kept appearing in my mind, I wasn't sure who it was but they felt like someone I was supposed to meet.
Going out of the front door, I entered the street, and saw a street leading down between large white washed buildings. The sun was blinding, and I could already feel it was getting hot, although it seemed like early morning.
I could hear the noise of people who were already up, and see an old woman of dark complexion.
Feeling drawn I walked quickly down the dusty street, looking around as I walked. The houses had a strange architecture, with lots of balconies and chipped paintwork.
following my instincts, I headed off down alleyway after alleyway until I reached a rough path with very thick vegetation on either side.
Large palms and tall grasses where everywhere and there was a pleasant earthy smell in the air as I tramped along.
As I came to the bottom of an incline my heart began to race, and as I reached the bottom a river came into view. I could hear the water running and stopped near the shore which was muddy.
There by the river was a young woman, I was breathless as I approached, but seem to know her as I uttered her name.
She turned and looked up from her washing at the sound of my voice, her smile radiant. My heart gave a little jump.
We sat and talked I know not the exact details as the words that I uttered were not english. But I could tell
the gist as I had images jumbling in my head of us and people I didn't know and then a church. I think it was maybe spanish , but accent so thick I couldn't tell. My mind might have created another language or made it sound like something similar idk.
There was also a feeling of sorrow at one point. I could tell that the two or I and her were in love.
I stole a kiss and my heart was singing as I left her and walked back up the slope.
Returning to the house the way I came, I saw and met people again I didn't know but seemed clearly to know me and greet me warmly.
I was overcome with the warmth of the people, it felt like everyone knew everyone and it was one big family of people.
A few said my name, but the accent was so thick that I had trouble identifiying the word, it was musical and I felt I enjoyed the exchanges.
People were filling the street now, and I felt an urgency again as I heard the loud clanging of church bells beginning to ring out.
I felt my feet guide me be returning to the house again. When inside I looked down at my self for the first time, wondering what I was wearing and infact who I was.
I looked quite presentable all my clothing was of a thin cotton and felt nice against my skin. I searched the room for more clothes and something to wash with.
My stomach actually started to feel hungry but I had no idea were anything was in this house and did not want to leave the dream before I found out what would happen next.
I flung on the clothers feeling my face and wondering what to do about the stubble I felt on my face. I felt a blade by a large bowl of water and proceeded to try and shave, suprisingly it seemed to come as second nature so I did not kill myself.
Leaving the house at a trott and joined the throng heading for the church, again many people acosted me.
I made it slowly up the steps of the church and imposing white building with twin towers and a cross.
Inside was dark, filled with a pungent smell of incense, the pews were of a dark wood, and as people packed in I looked around for a moment and noticed stained glass windows and figuerines.
I felt the presence of the young woman and looked and saw her wearing a beautiful white and red dress. She was at the other side of the church and I went to get up to go over to her but my arm was grabbed and I was forced down again.
Anger flooded me, and I wanted to rage, images flooded my head of her with another man.
Then as she looked over at me, and the vision of her face filled with a soft gentle love fixed on me.
I stopped dead, her attention made me feel like we were the only two in the world and the sounds of the church became muffled and distant.
It came to my mind that it was not destined to be and her family had arranged for her to marry another.
At this moment the vision of someone I know became superimposed over the womans face, in my mind it was as though the two people were one and the same. And as I looked at her, my heart became steady and it didn't matter what was happening then, now or any place in time.
She loved me in that moment and that was all that mattered, what happens in this life is not always in our control,
sometimes there is happiness sometimes sorrow. We have to be happy for the blessings that we are given.

I fell still, and awoke with the vision of her face still filling my mind.
It took a while for me to come out of the reverie. I was back in my own room I could tell, it was still dark.
I rested for a while filled with that peaceful feeling, smiling to myself.

[Comment]
I am still wondering if this was a past life memory or part of one, I have never been to that place but every detail was so real.
Also the dream went on for what felt like an hour or so.
The thing that most strongly makes me think it was something different was the feeling I had that I was in somebody else's body with someone else's thoughts.
Although I realise that I have the same repeating patterns in my own life that are counterproductive.
I know now that I must let go of those patterns, and this feeling of peace and unburdening I feel will help me do that.
Letting go will also improve the chances of what I would like to happen, actually happening as higher vibrations should attract better things

Oh it didn't seem relevant when I was dreaming, but there were no signs of modern living, no cars or electric lighting.

I had a non-lucid dream before this where I was being controlled by someone I was fearful of . I had to beg and do whatever they said. A nightmare.
I am quite clear this relates to a very controlling person in my life, and the need for me to get back my independence.

I have a feeling of being bummed that I'm not lucid while looking at statistics from a Dream Views monthly competition . I look at the screen and see line graphs in green corresponding to the time Sensei is lucid within dreams throughout each night.
I get the thought that I may actually be dreaming. Nose pinch lucid. I immediately leave the room and enter the main area of the structure. It resembles the main entryway at my childhood home. Beautiful rainbow light spills in the main area of the building through the arched window on the second story. I float down to the first floor, turn around and head down the hallway. As I walk down the hall, I look back to my first dream goal, and try to conjure a lucidity orb. My right hand comes out in front, but nothing appears. I then ask it to come to me in future dreams and make me lucid. I then ask for a dream character to appear in order to find me in future dreams and make me lucid. No response. I am in the kitchen area of the house at this point, but turn from this area, head back through the hall to the main area. I phase through the white front door and into the outdoor environment. The colors remain very bright and vivid. I gaze around at all the colorful bushes and trees and down the street, and wonder how long the dream will remain stable for. I move toward the street, and the dream fades a bit. I feel that I might be feeling my physical body. I begin to feel for gravity as my initial state test. I wake up.

I am in a dark room resembling my bedroom following a transition from a dream of driving a truck through corridors at a military base. I stand up but something feels strange. I go to look at my hands, but it's too dark to see anything. I decide to go with a nose-plug and breathe - success! I try to brighten things up so I shout out lantern, hoping to get a strong light effect from a lantern appearing in the room. I do this a few times, but don't get any results. I am still int he near pitch black room, and see a small bit of light coming through a door very far down a hallway. Instead of changing the dream scene, I decide to sit and meditate. Whin seconds, I get an incredible transcending experience with my mind, as though its being pulled up through my dream head and, and I begin to expereince a mild state of euphoria within a surrounding of dim golden light. After a few seconds, I return back to my meditating body and consider looking around the room. As I begin to open my eyes, I'm concerned it will be WL and become cautious. The dream begins to fade.

Dealing
I'm at some guy's apartment. He's a drugsdealer and apparently a tad dangerous. My girlfriend is there as well. At some point he calls her a bitch. Not for having done anything wrong; that's just how he refers to all women it seems. I don't like the way he disrespects her. I take one of my soup bowls; white with grey and black flowery decal. I hit him over the head with it and he goes down. I keep smashing him, not sure what with at this point, but I make sure he's dead or else he'll kill me for this.

A bit later someone is at the door. A customer. I open up the door and I try to fake my way through it and start talking more roughly than I normally do. I throw in a 'motherfucker' every other sentence. I also start talking a lot of Surinam [a lot of Dutch slang comes from Surinam]. At some point the guy at the door starts talking about Sergio, an elementary school friend. I've seen him as an adult and he is quite a big guy. He's a few metres away and he's tiny and mentally disabled. I start asking the guy what happened to the motherfucker. He's got an "i know right" kinda attitude. It is something drugs related. I'm not sure what happened next, but shortly after there's another customer. I think at some point we're all in the house. Not sure what happened to the body though. I think I may have made up a horrible excuse. I remember that at the end of the dream the situation has evolved into a gun deal. Ok this is getting way out of hand.


I watched Drugs Inc. on NatGeo about an hour before I went to bed.

Fragments
» I don't remember my surroundings. All I remember is one of my teeth being wobbly. Eventually I break off a piece of it, cause it's annoying the hell out of me. I can already see (don't know how actually) that there's another tooth inside this tooth, like a Russian nesting doll. I consider just removing the whole tooth and be done with it. I'm slightly worried that it might not be a good idea.

» I've taken a train. I'm supposed to get to my mom's city, but I can't get there directly. Instead, I take a detour. I have 2 options and both of them will bring me 2 stops away from my mom's city. Somehow I feel like things are not going my way.

» I'm playing football at first. This changes into korfbal and later into basketball.

» I'm sitting at a round table with my friend's mom and 2 of my friends. We're eating (dinner?).

» I'm just about exiting a subway station. I'm going down an escalator and I see Milad going up the escalator to my left. I think we say hi. After that I'm distracted, I think by my phone. I've been walking for a bit, but not getting anywhere. This escalator is suddenly going up. Wasn't this one going down. Whatever. I hop down a few times and I'm down.

Physical
I'm at what's supposed to be my physical therapist, but the building is vastly different. There's multiple storeys. I go into the basement to go to the toilet, which is way bigger than in reality. There's a row of at least 6 urinals and then there are stalls as well. There's an older man in one of the stalls. I take a urinal somewhere on the left. There's a glass wall so you can see into the garden it seems. There's an oddly shaped pool there. Makes sense I guess. Some people have injuries that require swimming. For some reason I decide to finish up at another urinal all the way to the right. I then have the issue of not knowing which urinals to flush. I decide to just flush em all and then make a run for it, before the older man comes out and identifies me.

Still in the same building. There are signs to public transportation on every floor. So convenient that you can just take the public transport from inside this building. At some point my friend Wina goes down some stairs. A white dude about my age is following her, or perhaps she's already blacked out and he's helping her down the stairs. Either way I know exactly what's going on. I go down the stairs, damn near action hero style and beat the guy up for trying to rape my friend.

Somewhere in this dream my physical therapist tells me I still have an appointment for next week. This confuses me, as I thought this was supposed to be our last session. I already moved out. Now I have to come back specially for this?


Magic
This is a Harry Potter dream it seems. I am Harry, or I am myself and have taken over the importance of Harry. I'm in what seems like the University Library, somewhere near the top floor. I think Dumbledore is also there. He has given me command of a sort of army of students. They are all walking down the stairs. I'm having a bit of fun translocating even for the smallest distances. I'm not aware that I'm dreaming, but I'm aware that I can make anything happen that I want to happen cause I'm a wizard. I make a joke that I should go check out my army, as there are a lot of girls in it. At some point I allow myself to fall flat onto the floor, wanting to translocate at the last second. I fail to do so, but I do manage to float just above the floor so I don't hurt myself.

Something else pops into my mind. I'm not sure if it's a thought. It seems more like a commercial. It's about Harry Potter or some other wizard and going on vacation. It's about him not having to go to the airport early, nor having to stand in line, as he just translocates there. Man that's stupid. Just translocate to your final destination.

I'm outside. It's night out, nearly pitch dark with just about no lights. It looks as if I'm standing on a miniature island shaped exactly like Africa. There's a very dark skinned woman swimming west to east the whole time, despite there being land. She's doing so around the longitude of where Cameroon should be. I go to talk to her. She's swimming around a little buoy or something alike on both sides and then goes back. She's supposed to make this trip perhaps once every X minutes or hours, but she is doing it on an endless loop. Eventually she comes out of the water and walks somewhere. Woow. Quite a big woman. She has a bit of a weepy story. At some point I don't really feel like listening anymore and I somehow sort of delegate this task to the dude that's with me. While walking, I spot two girls in the distance. One is a black girl with glasses that I've met at a language cafe in reality. I can't see any defining traits of the other girl, but I assume that to be the friend who was with her. I look the other way. I'm not feeling conversations right now.

I get a message on my phone. It seems like whatsapp. I'm tasked with babysitting the army right now and someone has gotten themselves into a situation. This person has sent a picture of what seems like 2 barrels near a beer place where they're trapped and there's fire or something like that. I ask the guy that's distracting the 'swimming woman' if he recognises this place. It's just down one of the side streets. That particular street is glowing with green light because there are several beer companies next to each other; at least Grolsch and Heineken. I go over and make a quick entry to the 2 barrels, which I immediately try to extinguish by conjuring up a big amount of water. There's no fire to be extinguished though and no water appears. Still I persist. I try to start with a droplet of water, which appears, and add more and more to it. I've got a little string of water going now. Suddenly it dawns onto me that I should try harder, cause things in dreams only happen if you believe in them. I'm now thinking about whether I should just continue the water or solidify the dream. I choose the latter and try to push my fingers through my hand because that will give me a sensation that the water won't. The RC fails. I know that I'm dreaming though. I just shouldn't let go of it. The dream slowly starts fading. I believe that my hearing starts being influenced by the real world, even though this is not true.

1. I had just left some neighborhood park. It was nighttime and the sky was clear. I had been riding a scooter around the neighborhood park when I realized how late it was. I rode my scooter out of the park and found myself on a random street. All around me there were houses and cars in the driveways of these houses. It was completely silent all in this neighborhood, and everyone seemed to be asleep. I looked above me and saw a relatively bright orange street light, and these were all up and down the street I was on. I looked in front of me and noticed a bright white light. Seconds later I look down at the scooter I am on and realize that there is a flashlight installed into its frame.
Suddenly, two guys on bikes come from around the corner and ride over to me. They stop about 4 or 5 feet in front of me and start talking to me. I don't remember what they said, but I knew I had to be getting home right now. After we talked for a few minutes I looked behind me for some reason. As I did so I saw my bike and longboard just laying on the ground. I went over to them and picked them up, but I had no idea how I was going to bring them, and my scooter all home at the same time. I walk out onto the street and stop for a moment. "Could this be a dream?" I ask myself, "I heavily doubt it, but I'll do a reality check anyways." I counted my fingers, and something was wrong with my hand but I don't remember what. "Holy shit I am dreaming" I said out loud in a neutral voice. I then became lucid.
I hear someone approaching me from my left, and I as look over I see my friend Gigi walking towards me. She is wearing a pink tank top and pink short shorts along with white shoes. "Lets see if I can fly" she says. She then jumps up and starts flying on her stomach very low to the ground. She seemed to be only about 1 or 2 feet into the air. Seconds later she flies into a large open dark green shipping crate and I don't see her again. "Aright, time to check out my flying skills" I say out loud. I then ran and jumped into the air and immediately after that I found myself flying, however, I was flying really low to the ground just as Gigi was. I moved my hands a certain way and this instantly increased my altitude by launching me up into the sky at an extremely immense speed. I could feel the Positive G force acting on my body; it felt as though I was riding a roller coaster that was going straight up. Within seconds I found myself way up into the dark night sky. It was too high for my comfort at the moment so I lowered my altitude.
I remembered my dream plan; I knew what I had to do know. "I have to create a time dilation watch" I said to myself. With that I looked for the nearest house and started flying towards it. The first house I saw was a two story house made of mostly wood that was painted white. It looked like a normal house by all means. As I got up to the house I increased my speed and flew straight through one of its second story windows which caused the window to break. As I got up off of the floor that I had crash landed on inside, I looked around. This room had off-white walls with a thick curly brown carpet and dark brown furnishings everywhere. I remember the room fairly resembled my parents master bedroom in my waking life house.
This led me to believe this was my dads bedroom, but I was still lucid. "Aright, lets find one of dad's watches" I said to myself. I could've easily just manifested a watch or made one appear in the first drawer I opened, but instead I decided to look in all the drawers to find one, and so I did. I went through all of the drawers in one dresser, but found no watches, so I went to another dresser and opened 3 more. On the 3rd drawer I opened up, I found my dads old watch. "This would work, but I want one of his new watches" I said out loud. Just then I did something that caused the dream to destabilize and I woke up. I laid motionless and within seconds entered the exact same dream and am still lucid. I'm now in the same room as before, but I can see through the window I broke through that it is daylight outside now.
I looked behind me and the doors to the room were now open. "It's time to wake up!" I hear a man say from downstairs. I walk out of the bedroom and see a man of indian descent standing in the foyer downstairs. I turn back to go back into the room to find one of my dads new watches, and as I do so I notice that outside of the master bedroom I was in, the entire house closely resembles my waking life house. As I walk back into the room thinking about her(The DC girl I've been trying to find forever). I'm not sure if I saw her or what, but something happened that involved her.

Note: I made huge progress in this dream because I for once focused on creating a time dilation watch. In my next lucid, tonight, I will complete the watch. This has been one of my dream goals for over a year now. This will be the beginning of something huge.

I was in this house with a man I wasn't married too but we had a bunch of kids. The house was all kinds of wrong which is a common thing for me in my dreams. A was tucking a couple of the kids into bed & the room wall all tilted to where there were slanting windows at the foot of their bed. Like they could fall right through the window in the middle of the night. I spent a lot of time in this house & became lucid do to the increasing oddness of this house. I would walk down halls that were like a fun house, all slanted & not normal by any means. Outside didn't seem much better. We were near exaggerated slanting hillsides.... Meesha woke me up first so I kept my eyes mostly closed & gave her some food & peed & went back to bed to try & get back into the dream. I slipped back in pretty easily but now the kids wanted us to get married so we were making preparations for this & my parents came for the wedding. Right after they showed up, my real life husband woke up & it made me realize I needed to pee again. So back I went into the bathroom w/ my eyes only slightly open & managed yet again to get back in. This time the setting for the wedding had changed into a cemetery & the wedding process began, right there in the cemetery. It was all gloomy & weird while we mingled & talked in the cemetery. It was just as if it was a funeral setting not any kind of beverages or food, just milling about & talking. I was still lucid during these dreams & I could also simultaneously tell my husband was awake in our real house because of the sounds. I had to get up at this point because of a previous engagement for today.

I know this is chaining so I guess you'd classify it as a kind of combo of a Deild & Wild which basically means chaining.

This dream started out in a tall rickety wooden house. It was our house with the same rooms just different layout. We had a Halloween party, and people started sowing up in droves for it. After it got too big a security guard showed up and shut it down. People left, and I flew around a bit on the street but afterward I went back to find the party goers disassembling and stealing everything in the house. I decided to turn back time and try the party again, but even when only a few people got in the house at the end, they would still rob the place. So I restarted a third time, and at the end I stood outside the front door on the porch and started knocking out everyone who tried to get in. When they were finally all gone I crossed the road to see the dankerton extended family sitting outside in the sun, and Devon was there. I started telling him how great a day i t was, but when I went to explain how I turned back time I realized I was dreaming. I looked at my hands, one was normal and the other one was small and distorted like a cripples. I was so excited my heart started racing, and I couldn't look away from my hand, it was so interesting. Eventually everything but my hands went black as my dream slowly slipped away, so I kept staring at it until it all passed into nothingness.

I'm on campus, pretty, clear spring day. There are signups for summer classes (they start tomorrow) but there are also, more fun and pointless activities. I remember the author of Harry Potter was on campus and she was going to assign people to one of four dorms in the dorms that I stayed in last year, only they had been renamed to be the four Hogwarts houses. (Gryphindoor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Slytherin) This was supposedly a part of a role-play type thing to make college more fun. Also, if you signed up to live in these dorms, you could be a part of a quidditch team.

IWL or in dream, I've never been a huge fan of Harry Potter. (You may have noticed some butchered spellings.) But in dream there were a lot of HP fanboys and fangirls hanging around the table waiting. Don't remember why I was waiting there, I think I had some friends who were interested in signing up for the HP dorms.

I remember I got bored. There was a tree nearby so I figured I would climb it. A few other students were trying to climb it so they could sit on the branches and pretend they were flying on broomsticks. I betted that I could climb the tree easily. I ran up the trunk a couple steps and grabbed a low hanging branch, then pulled myself up gracefully to the top of the branch. The students were pretty impressed with my feat. (I wasn't even lucid) But a security guard showed up and told me to get down. So I jumped down.

I think one of the students asked what spell I was using. I was curious until I looked down and saw that I was floating about 3in off the ground. This caused me to RC and become lucid. I started flying off. At first I was flying really low, only a few feet off the ground. (Though it was still faster and more fun than walking.) I began making my way around campus when I noticed strong winds disrupting my flying. A few of them blew me into the sides of buildings. I remember at one point the wind blew me face first into a brick wall. It was the brick wall that broke and not my skull fortunately. My head was now sticking out of the wall of what looked like my high schools gymnasium, and there was a cheerleading class going on. Everyone looked on surprised and confused.

"Sorry!"

I figured if I could get higher, then I wouldn't have to worry about the winds blowing me into buildings. At this point I was flying down a narrow alley. I heard someone yell "Freeze" and saw the campus security guard along with several others. A mecha walked in behind them, pretty small and probably unmanned, but I still don't see why Campus Security needs a battle mech.

Spoiler for Mech looked like this, but painted white with police siren.:

I don't know what these guys want so I just figured I'd fly away. I tried to fly down the alley, but I saw Jack (OMG I thought you had left my dreams) with a giant fan that was creating the winds. Apparently he was a junior officer on Campus Security and he wanted to get me in trouble.

I finally managed to fly upward. I heard shooting but tried to ignore it, hoping that the dream would drop the plot of security trying to stop my LD. I managed to get away, flying in a spiral around a large skyscraper-ified version of the language building. I kept having to say "Faster, Faster, Come on!" As I got up, I saw a city (not there IWL). On the left were several rocket launch pads. Each one had one of these odd space shuttle looking craft on it. (I think the space shuttles had extended noses or something.) There was also a Washington monument type thing in the middle of a big hexagonal park and a huge cluster of tall buildings.

I decided to go and investigate the space shuttle pads. I remember it looked sort of like a cargo shipping dock. There were these big robot arms on tank tracks that would lift boxes of cargo into the shuttles, and they would take off and fly into space. There was also a giant field full of parked shuttles. Someone started explaining to me that "The Professor" had designed these for easy space travel. Now he was working on a space ambulance version that looked exactly the same, but with a red medical cross painted on it. He said that he wanted to do a space fire truck version but he couldn't because there was no oxygen for fires to happen in space.

Lost the dream and woke up.

Side Notes: Last night I made a goal of Manifesting Manei. Became lucid and seemingly completely forgotten about. I've gotten very good at this, becoming lucid and forgetting my goals. I need to figure out ways of better remembering my goals and staying focused.

My lucidity is almost to 1/night. Some nights I have two or three, balancing out the nights where I have none. (At least how its been for the past 3 weeks.) I think I've figured out how to have an acceptable quantity of LDs. Now it becomes about having good LD quality...

Not complaining about flying LD though.

I found myself in my old primary school, although the corridors were far grander in size and decoration than the real version. What happened at the beginning in the dream, I am not sure. I was working on fixing a tv for three of my teachers (who were all gathered in one room for some reason). The Tv only needed to be plugged in. Whilst moving to perform this task, lucidity hit me and, as a test of my dream control I decided to turn on the TV without plugging it in, by willing the current from the socket into the Tv. This worked and, satisfied, I left the teachers to watch what I believe was news.

Walking down the corridors, I came across two beautiful women in long, flowing, blue dresses who were apparently shooting an advert, despite the lack of cameras. Entranced by their beauty, I verbally beckoned one of them over and we both came the simultaneous realisation that we should have sex. This we did, but I woke up midway through.

I'm standing with [S] in the hallway talking about lucid dreaming. I look at my hands and realize I'm dreaming. I look up and take in how convincing S's face is. I ask her, "Why didn't you tell me I was dreaming?". She gives me a big grin, and turns her face to her left. We walk together down the hallway toward the far end. We are in my childhood home. I take the opportunity to ask her very specific questions we've been talking about in waking life. First, I ask "What is your main passion?". Next, I ask "What is the best way for me to become lucid". Finally, I ask "What's your favorite food?" (Not all that epic). We continue to walk down the hallway, and finally enter a room on the far end resembling my brother's. I look to the cabinet against the wall; it is 3 shelves wide with many glass windows. The cabinet contains many different interesting bottles with contents that seem equally as interesting. At one point I think something along the lines of 'wow... this is very realistic/stable. I consider going for one of the opaque creamy looking bottles to see what it is. I get a vague notion that it may help me with lucidity. I decide not to drink it, however. I don't see S for a short period and consider heading out of the window, yet she reappears in my vision very soon. I give her a kiss. The dream becomes a bit blurry, but I rub my dream body with strong intent and stabilize. I look on the bed and see a very small pile with some of her clothes. The dream ends shortly after and I wake up.

*I don't clearly remember her responses to the three questions due to moving my head a couple inches upon waking.
