    Lucid Dreams

    1. The Psychedelic Sky

      by , 07-12-2015 at 10:12 AM (Xanous' Dream Journal)
      #449 - DILD - 2:48AM

      I hit this DILD just before my scheduled WBTB. I almost decided to skip it but I'm really wanting to get another lucid tonight.

      Summary:

      I wake up in jail wanting a way out. My phone doesn't act right so I do a nose plug. I morph through a screen door and play with a cat. I enjoy a psychedelic night sky with planets and nebulae. One planet was a giant baseball. I play with an inflatable octopus in a fountain and then wake up.
      I wake up in jail. I believe it to be jail although it doesn't really looking like it. I'm laying on something uncomfortable, but I ignore it. I am not sure why I am jail. I never think about that I just know that I hate it when I wake up in jail though this has never happened in waking life. Its late morning and I realize I am late for work. I don't rush around to get ready because I am bummed about jail. It's only 30 days and I've nearly done a week but this really sucks. They only let me out to go to work. Why do they do that? I think I should just pay a lawyer and get this thing taken care of. I really want to go home. I consider taking a vacation day so I can do that, but I don't want to get caught and make things worse. Surely, they track me somehow. I see an ad on the floor for a local lawyer. I decide to should call him before I go to work. I look at my cell phone. It's past 9AM. I unlock, but cant get my phone to respond properly. It's acting really random and I notice this as a dream sign. As a matter of fact off this seems really weird. I do a nose plug and I am relieved to blow through. Whoo-hoo! Problem solved!

      I hop up and notice I am some version of an old house of mine. I want out and the first thing I see is a window screen. I try phasing but the screen distorts my vision too much. I look left and see a screen door, but I don't think to open it. I try to phase, but the same thing happens. I suddenly recall to practice eye movement and I get a left-right, but quickly my eyes feel like they roll. I shake it off. I see a cat outside and play with it a little by tapping on the screen. It's scared at first, but I will it to respond and it latches on the screen for a second. I laugh and am finally able to relax enough to merge through the screen.

      Now that I am outside, I notice it has become dark. I play with the cat a little to stabilize before moving on. I realize I have no goal so I just decide to look at the sky. Dream skys are always super fun and psychedelic. I let out a "wow" when I see a large planet that looks like a baseball with a colorful nebula around it. I hold the cat up and say, "Look cat. That's what the title of this dream will be." The cat doesn't care about that and scrambles to be let down so, I drop the it and forget about it. The baseball planet has vanished now so, I look around the sky some more. Several nebulae appear with multiple planets of every color coming and going. I walk around enjoying this for a long while until I have a bad thought. I wonder if I am really supposed to get getting up for work. I wonder what time it really is. The dream is starting to get unstable again and I feel that I could wake myself up right now. I consider it, but decide to enjoy the dream a little longer.

      I look around me and see a strange fountain with something glowing yellow like holographic tentacles. A holographic octopus? When I come near, the hologram vanishes and a cartoonist, inflatable, pink octopus emerges out of the fountain. Amused I grab the octopus by the tentacles and spin around with it. I focus on the horrible humanoid face of the thing as the world spins around me. It's eye are bulging now and I hear a faint muffled scream coming from the thing. It's "alive"? The whole thing is slightly nightmarish, but I find it too funny to be afraid. The dream collapses here and I have a few random images before waking up.

    2. Mom Tries to Eat Me :( (LD #25)

      by , 07-12-2015 at 03:50 AM (Sharpshoey's Lucid Journey)
      July 7, 2015

      I have an FA and I head into my bathroom to take a shower. I look in the mirror and my face is a little off but I don't think much of it and turn back to the shower. I then suddenly turn back around just to make sure and notice my face looks like a creepy baby face with messed up teeth. One tooth hangs out of my mouth when I close it. I am suspicious that I could be dreaming so I do a nose plug to confirm. Sure enough I'm dreaming. I test the mirror out and do something with my hands. The thing in the mirror does something completely different with his hands making them into the OK signs and connecting them (if that makes any sense). I get sort of creeped out so I leave the bathroom. It is dark in the house and I walk to the balcony. I see my mom folding clothes with her back turned to me. She has a ponytail and her hair is brown. I start walking down the stairs and lose sight of her. I picture her as a cute blonde I know but then decide that is too hard for me to actually believe with my limited dream control. So I imagine a less attractive, but still attractive girl who has brown hair usually in ponytails. I settle on her because it seemed to me it'd be easier to imagine. When I get downstairs I remember I forgot to stabilize so I quickly touch and take in a few details of the wall. I turn the corner and walk towards the lady who is still folding clothes. When I near her she turns around and is a cross between a cat and a vampire. She hisses and grabs my arm, trying to take a chunk out of it. I'm screaming and thinking that all I want to do is wake up, because I don't want to feel any pain.

      Into another FA.
      I'm sitting in a chair in my kitchen and I do a clock RC. The clock seems fine. I rest my hands behind my head and remember to notice gravity, which seems normal as well. I turn my chair and see my mom outside gardening. There are manikins of hands all over our landscaping and I think that's odd. I'm asking why they are there and was very close to deciding that was very weird when I got pulled back into the dream plot. I grab a bag of cereal, which I also tested gravity with and it was also normal, and my brother said that his teacher said he was sorry for not helping him on the test. My brother wasn't mad though because he said he still aced it because he wasn't an idiot. My mom was then in the house and said how his teacher was so nice.


      Even though I didn't get lucid from the Gravity RC, it's good I remembered to do it in a dream. I probably just didn't have enough awareness of gravity yet to realize that it was different from WL. So that just tells me I need to practice it even more until I an finally get lucid from it!

    3. Mastermind and Painting Rockets Orange (#222)

      by , 07-11-2015 at 07:25 PM (Lucid Time!)
      I remember dreaming that I was in the kitchen of my house. I let loose a bunch of cuss words for no real reason. I then became semi lucid and I was worried that I was talking in my sleep.

      I remember forum user MasterMind was my college roommate. We also had this really nice dorm with two large beds that had red sheets with golden embroidery. We were talking about our lucid dreams. He told me that he was having trouble remembering his dreams. I asked him what he had dreamed about last night.

      "Do you know of Janet and Jane Milleen? [false memory that these were actors/real people] Twin asian actresses. I had a dream that they were my dream guides. I don't know. My dreams are not usually that vivid. What did you dream about?"

      "[false memory] I had a dream I was painting rockets orange... because orange is my favorite color."

      I then found myself in a field. I wasn't on earth. There were rockets and buckets of orange paint everywhere. I realized I had gone backwards from telling him about the dream to actually dreaming the dream.
      I then became partially lucid. I for some reason wanted to get rid of all the rockets because I dream too much of spaceships and stuff. I started ripping them apart with my bare hands. I remember vividly throwing broken rocket parts around the grassy field.

      I remember I climbed to the top of one, ripping off bits all the way. When I got to the top there was this statue of two girls dancing with one another. I thought it might be the twin actresses that MasterMind was talking about. The statue had a little wind-up key in the round base that I turned and it made them dance while music played.


      I became fully lucid.

      A computer error appeared. It read "Lucid dream.exe has stopped working. Would you like to wake up?" with a yes or no button. It clicked the 'yes' button without my consent and the dream changed to this big glowing purple and blue electricity orb.

      I was trying to use autosuggestion to gain control of the situation.

      "I am a master lucid dreamer. In a few moments, I will arrive in a new location..."


      Nuts.

      7.11.15

      slept from 2 pm few hours, WBTB

      day before talked to ophelia about how to open dream eyes

      [23:28] <@OpheliaBlue|BRB> so what I do to combat that, is to just assume that when I open my eyes at all, it MUST be a dream
      [23:29] <@OpheliaBlue|BRB> i'd rather be wrong and be awake and assume I'm dreaming, than have a FA and miss my chance at being lucid
      [23:29] <@OpheliaBlue|BRB> so far, I've never opened my eyes, assuming I was dreaming, and been wrong
      .....
      [22:48] <@gab> omg OpheliaBlue
      [22:48] <@gab> I did what yo told me, to the letter
      [22:48] <@gab> didn't get me lucid, but anyway, I did lucid things and was telling people I am
      [22:55] <@gab> took them flying around, they were amazed
      [22:55] <@gab> so was I
      [22:56] <@gab> I opened my eyes or otherwise came to, said this is a dream because YOU said so, decided to count my fingers
      [22:56] <@gab> 6
      [22:56] <@gab> wth, again
      [22:56] <@gab> more
      [22:56] <@gab> wooo
      [22:57] <@gab> hrm, maybe it was lucid, because just before that as falling asleep I realized I have "that" feeling in back of my head
      [22:57] <@gab> that I have when entering WILD
      [22:58] <@gab> so thank you, OpheliaBlue

    5. Crashing my Car, Diamonds, and Cliff Jumping

      by , 07-11-2015 at 06:27 PM
      Dream 1
      I was driving in my new car. I was on a ramp like those fancy highway ramps that go different places. I reached down to try and grab something, maybe my phone? and wasn't really watching the road. I noticed that I had my foot on the accelerator all the way down, and was going way to fast. I tried to slow down, but couldn't, and hit the side rail. My car went over that, and flew and hit another ramp. It then started to fall down. It was like a parking garage underneath, and the car kept falling down. I also didn't have my seatbelt, and the thought went through my head, "No one even saw this crash so am I just going to be down here forever?". Eventually the car got stuck between another ramp and a pole.

      Dream 2
      I was in a house, which I guess was mine even though it wasn't my waking life house. I explored around and found this room. It had all of my dads old stuff in it. There were old computers and all kinds of stuff. The computers were really cool and I wanted to keep one. My dad came in and started acting all weird and was like, "These are mine you can't have them!" I walked away and found my sister. I looked in this trashcan, and there was a big chunk of diamond sitting in there. Apparently my dad kept it there to keep it safe. I showed my sister and she took it and ran away with it. I told her that it was my dads and she couldn't steal it. Eventually I got it back and went to drop it back in to the trash can where I found it, but when I dropped it, it disappeared. I dug around trying to find it. I found some really cool magnetic rock things, but I didn't find the diamond. Then I woke up.

      Dream 3
      This was about 5 hours after I went to sleep. I did a quick bathroom WBTB.

      I was on some kind of trip with my classmates. We were standing by the ocean. The land around us was made of these orange, rough rocks, and the ocean was a bright, lovely blue. We had to get on this train, but instead of actually getting in it, like a normal passenger train, we had to jump on to the top of it and hold on. At first I was too far away from it so I ran to an area that was closer to the train and jumped. I landed in a cart thing that was full of coal. The train was moving really fast, and as we came around this corner, it started to tip. Then, my cart tipped in to the ocean. It was a really weird feeling. I didn't want to open my eyes because I was afraid my contacts would fall out under the water, so I kept them closed. I felt the train cart above me so I swam out of the way and up to the surface. I climbed up the cliffs, about 10 feet high, using this little path. I then walked up to a higher point and I saw that all of the carts had tipped in to the water, and all my classmates were swimming back to the shore. I decided to go cliff jumping, so I jumped in, which was pretty fun. When I came back up to the surface, I saw one of my friends and said hi. When I got back up to the top of the cliffs, I became lucid.

      I didn't really do an RC or anything, I just realized I was dreaming and since the location was somewhere pretty weird, I knew for sure I was dreaming. I decided to jump off the cliffs again, but higher up. I think I jumped off one that was about 30 or 40 feet high. I tried to do a backflip, but stopped when I was upside down and fell in to the water head first. It wasn't very deep so I hit the bottom and scraped against the rocks, which hurt quite a bit. Okay, lets not do that again, I thought. When I got out of the water, the dream started fading out and it went black, but I could still feel the scene around me. I could feel the rocks on my feet and hand and could hear the ocean, so I stuck my hands up in front of my face and sort of willed myself to see them. In a little bit, my vision came back and I tried to notice the little wrinkles and stuff on my hands. This increased the vividness a bit.

      I decided to try the have a conversation with an inanimate object task. I picked up a rock, and said very loudly, "Hello rock!". I sat there for a bit, but nothing happened, so I threw the rock in to the water and yelled, "See ya rock!" and climbed back up the cliffs. I noticed a small building and decided I would talk to that. I decided to try and be a little more casual and natural, like I was talking to a friend. I went up to the building and said, "Hey building, how's it going". I waited a little bit, and then the front started morphing. The two windows in the front turned in to eyes and a large dome thing spread out from the door. I noticed it looked a monkey face. I said, "What's up?" and moved a little closer. The dome that came out from the door lifted up in the air a bit and moved closer to me. It was like that game, Hungry Hungry Hippos, where you press the button thing and your hippos mouth lifts up and you have to try and eat the white marble things. I tried a couple more times to talk to it, and it did that motion every time. I gave up and walked away. I went behind the building, but as I was doing so, my dream faded.

    6. Floriday

      by , 07-11-2015 at 06:00 PM (Xanous' Dream Journal)
      #448 - DILD - 9:28AM

      Just a short and sweet entry here... I got to get caught up on some sleep and hit on lucidity. I had actually woke up around 1am and tried sleeping in the recliner to induce lighters sleep, but I seemed to have been too tried to make and difference. Around 5AM the sunlight woke me and I moved back to bed with a sleep mask. I recalled several dreams throughout the night.


      Summary:
      I am on a bus trip. I see a hotel and stadium with the word "Floriday". I suddenly remember that I was dreaming and do the eye movements practice. The dream quickly falls apart and I try to stabilize. I am fooled by a FA that turns sexual.
      I was on a bus ride with several other young men. I felt like I was in high school and recalled my mom said something about letting her know when I'll be back so she can pick me up. We ride through a down town area that I thought might be Madison, Wisconsin, but I become confused when I see a hotel with the word "Floriday" on it. Later we pass a stadium that reads: "Floriday Panthers" in purple and yellow. I wonder if I am in Floria and I try to take a quick picture of the stadium sign, but we are moving too fast. We then pass a city bus stopped on the road and the enter a more wooded area. I suddenly become lucid like I had briefly forgot that I was dreaming and came back. Oh yeah I was dreaming! I am not sure if I had been lucid, lost it, then recovered it, but it sure feels like it. The outside of the bus begins to darken and I quickly search my mind for goals. I recall the first thing was to practice eye movements for a later experiment. As I do it, I realize that I went right-left vs. left-right, but figure it doesn't matter. As I look both ways twice the dream severely distorts and I find myself in a bardo. I try not to wake up and begin clapping and rubbing my hands. After a while I am fooled by a false awakening.

      I am next to some alternate version of my wife clapping my hands. I have woke her up and she asks what I am doing. I tell her that I did it (the lucid task). She begins to talk a lot and I tell her to let me try to reenter the dream. She gets quiet, but cuddles to me and I realize she is naked waste down. I'm really focused on DEILD, but she quickly convinces me to have sex. I wake up just as we get started.
    7. Intense Stomach Pain

      by , 07-11-2015 at 04:01 PM
      Well in this dream I was lucid and non lucid. It was a very stressful dream for me when i woke up but i have a feeling it could have been from stress. If not then my dreaming mind just really hates me and maybe the thought of it once just happen to trigger it.

      Anyways the dream started with me walking around my house to downstairs where I was talking to a dream character. Suddenly Rose Quartz from Steven Universe popped up dressed as a maid. Noticing the change of the setting into a restaurant, I made a joke about how i was going to look like her and serve people their food and drinks in a silly manner. That's when i started acting silly than out of no where i think the guy with me or another guy came up to me and poked me in my stomach area than pushed it inward. I couldn't see their face just noticed the silhouette. I told it to stop but when it wasn't stopping i ran around.

      I think i appeared upstairs than ran downstairs again and when i was about to enter a room the character slid holding its hands out in front of me. I felt like it was a ticking bomb of fear and dread and ran the other way. I also have a feeling it was dressed in ragged clothes. Like a grey/navy blue sweater with baggy jean pants or something like that. Anyways I ran away than appeared on my mom's bed thinking i was awake. I got up than looked in the living room and the character appeared. Couldn't see how it looked but i could feel it there.

      I was afraid it was with my dad than reappeared on the bed and felt someone putting their finger on my belly button like they were trying to go through me. It hurt a lot so i prayed about it. Even though I thought it might be a demon in the dream that was obviously not the case. I kept feeling the pain and tried to move the finger but it was no use. It kept positioning back to the same spot. It ended up vanishing when i got the feeling that i sent it away but than my eyes were force closing and i reappeared on the bed again with the same pain. I let it hurt me till I woke up trembling.

      :/ Hmm.....Guess it could be a stress sign or just random dream pain from the thought of how it happened before.

    8. 7/10/15 - Trees, Nerds, and Fingers

      by , 07-11-2015 at 06:05 AM
      I’m at a friend’s house. He and his friends are talking about some new musical that he wrote. I say it’s fine as long as he’s not singing it too, he can’t sing a lick. I walk around his house for a bit, until I realize I’m in my old living room. Wait, this doesn’t seem right. I instantly become lucid. I was now the only person in the house, so I decided to do some tasks. There’s a plant in a pot next to me in the living room with a couple seeds on it. I go to grab one. OUCH FREAKING HECK. The seeds are incredibly sharp to the touch, almost like a large sand spur. I try to find a less sharp one on the plant to no avail. I just decide to pull a seed out of my pocket, and sure enough, I find a small orange-seed-looking seed. I plant it in this small corner of my living room that is made of dirt. I turn around and back again to find a small tree in its place. It’s very short, but the trunk is very big around. A small stem with 3 leaves stuck out the top. I figured that was good enough.

      I next wanted to talk to an inanimate object. I flew up to the attic for some reason, but had no luck talking to anything there. I tried a couple different objects around the house, but still nothing. I kind of forget what all happened next, but I ended up with a fairly heavy trash bag of something (I vaguely remember that it might have been the chopped down tree, but it could have been something worse like a body). I walked a bit out the front door and tossed the trash bag to this large tree with a face that was growing in my front yard. As it landed at the base of the tree, I shouted out at it.
      “Thanks, tree!”
      “No problem, boss.”




      I wake up in my bed back in my present home. I have this weird feeling that I usually have after waking up from a nap - it’s like I can’t feel the sheets or bed, so I feel like I’m floating just above the bed. I can usually break this feeling without much effort (though it usually feels so pleasant that I don’t bother). However, for some reason I feel fairly paralyzed and can’t move. On top of that, my legs are actually floating higher than the rest of my body. They continue to rise as I inhale, eventually pointing up to the ceiling, and then lower themselves back down to the bed as I exhale. I hear footsteps coming down the hallway, and I start to panic a bit, wondering what my parents will think when they see me floating with my legs pointed up in a strange position. I exhale and try to keep from breathing, and I slowly lower back into to the bed, finally able to move. I sit up as my mom walks in. We head out to this elevator to go downstairs.



      The elevator is really small and has not many features other than its cold metal walls and the red screen to show what floor we are at. I start to get a bit panicked, since usually in my dreams elevators tend to break and plummet. Wait, in my dreams…
      Of course, I’m an idiot. The elevator jerks to a halt, but before its inevitable fall to the ground, I quickly shove open the doors and get out.



      I’m now in this large hotel conference room. I have no idea what’s going on. It looks like as big of an event as Comic-Con, but there’s not anyone dressed up or anything. I grab a flyer and take a look. “Fourth Annual Nerd Convention.” The convention’s literally a large gathering of incredibly smart people. I feel kinda out of place in this large crowd of nerds, so I make a break for the exit. Instead, I find myself in another room of the nerd convention. I walk through several rooms, each time finding another section of this massive Nerd-Con. I get incredibly frustrated, and in a fit of desperation, I shout “NERDS!” angrily at the top of my lungs. Everyone turns to me and happily shouts “NERDS!” as well. Soon, a chant of “NERDS!” starts sweeping across the convention center.


      I wake up again. This time my laptop is in my lap, and I’m now on DreamViews Chat, talking with Mismagius. “Woah, that’s a pretty crazy dream. ^O^”
      I try to type, “Pretty much, yeah”, but the words keep coming out wrong, and I have to try to retype it several times. Wait a minute, I didn’t even tell him my dream yet.
      Oh, I’m still dreaming, dang it. I now try to type out, “Oh wait, I’m still dreaming”, but the keys still aren’t quite working right. Wait, why am I even bothering to type? I’m freaking dreaming! I throw my laptop on the bed and get up to try some more stuff.

      I recently read this thread on transformation, and since I’ve always struggled with transformation in dreams, I figured I’d give it a shot. The guide suggests starting out small and getting used to the feeling of controlling new body parts, by growing extra fingers and feeling how you can still control them individually. I look down at my hands to find that I only have 4 fingers at the moment. I grabbed my pinky and stretched it out towards the end of my hand, forming a fifth finger and returning my hand to (relatively) normal. I continue to do this until I have about seven fingers, and then I try bending each one individually. I shake my hand to return it to normal, but instead this just mixes up my hand even more. I have fingers sticking out of other fingers, and eventually I even have a finger that stretched across my other fingers, holding them all together. I pull this finger off my hand completely, but I don’t know what to do with it. I make sure no one’s looking, and then toss it in one of the laundry hampers. Shortly after this, however, I wake up for real.

    9. Natural? Control? Layers? Flying?

      by , 07-10-2015 at 12:52 AM
      Same as you, I didn't know about lucid dreams until (today) I searched on Google:"I control my dreams." From there I learned it was hard to accomplish this, while for me, it's naturally and never knew I had been doing this more than three times a week if not, every day. Then I stumbled upon all these posts and learned the thing about layers. I don't know what layer I've found myself in, I know I'm dreaming, I can say what I want, I can think what I want to think, I can go where I want to, do what I want to. In my lucid dreams I have flown at least 2 different times and still remember the feeling and the amazing experience. Sometimes I open my eyes without falling into another layer and go back to my dream like nothing happened. The thing is—they're a always good dreams, nightmares are so rare but in those cases I can wake up when I feel it's getting too much. When I wake up from those nightmares, my breathing is quick and my heart is beating rapidly. I'm young, no older than 16. I read a lot about moving from layer 4-5 to layer 3, but then realizing it's just another dream, while you thought you had already woken up.But I have control of going from my all-control to being awake and aware. What layer would you consider I've been? I searched them up, but it's a little hard to understand, and since all of you have experienced lucid dreaming I decided to share my experience.

    10. Seed Task

      by , 07-09-2015 at 05:49 PM
      I'm lucid with C and some random DCs, just having fun in some weird-looking building when suddenly my awareness spikes upward and I remember the seed task. I immediately start walking outside. I find myself on a strip of dirt and grass about two feet wide with tall chain-link fences on either side. I see a dandelion growing near my feet so I reach down and pinch off a piece of the middle of a bloom. I change this into a seed in between my fingers. I walk a few more steps, then plant it in the ground. I find more seeds in my hand so I plant them at different depths further along the path. I turn around at the end and look back where I planted everything. There's nothing coming up yet so I raise my hands up slowly and powerfully, willing, pulling the plants up out of the ground. Three scraggly bushes come up, two of which are green. The one I'd focused the most on, the one in the middle, is completely brown and dead and as I continue to pull up it comes right out of the ground and falls over. I frown and walk away.

    11. (#221) Equal parts

      by , 07-09-2015 at 02:00 PM (Lucid Time!)
      I recall riding a school bus and there was a terrorist guy with a gun outside who stopped us and the bus driver was trying to defend everyone on-board.

      I remember some dream about hugging this log and flying through this beautiful forest of gigantic old oak trees. I was semi-lucid and I was thinking about how by hugging the log I was showing an affection and appreciation for nature and in return it would grant me the power of flight. The log started to carry me too high and I was worried I might not find a way to get back down.

      The next thing I knew, I was fully lucid. I was sitting in a booth at an Italian restaurant with Manei. It was nighttime. I recognized the restaurant as one that I have dreamed about for the past two nights.

      "You came back! I was waiting! Wait long time for you!"

      "Yes, I found a reason to return... But where are we? I didn't make this place, at least not consciously."

      "Because I make it for us!..."

      She went on for a minute about me not being around and wanting me to come back to lucid dreaming while I was distracted with things like school, playing video games, etc. I told her how she must accept that I will not lucid dream every night, as much as I would like to.

      "But sleep every night, so why not lucid dream every night? That was goal, is it not still?"

      "Yes, that is still a goal of mine. Just it's a big goal and sometimes I need a break from chasing it."

      "Just make promise, okay. Do not give it up. Stop and rest if need to. Take step back if need to. But do not give up."

      "Wasn't planning on it..."

      "Pinky promise?"

      "Seriously?! alright..." *le pinky promise*

      There was a pause in the discussion, or a bit that I forgot. We were walking out of the restaurant. I remembered something I wanted to ask her.

      "My friend S, he merged with one of his guides and now he becomes lucid every night. Is it possible that I could do the same with you?"

      "No. It is too late for us to do that, and we cannot. His journey different from ours. Besides, we have already forged powerful partnership. We can attain same level of power as him, if not more. Take my hand."

      I take her hand. I feel the heat/energy coming off of her and it burns a little at first, but I've gotten more used to it as time has gone on. After a few seconds it evens out into a steady flow going up my arm into my body. I look down and see for a few seconds a bunch of little orange energy arrows going down her arm and up mine.

      "Now, your turn. Take other hand."

      I take her other hand. I don't even have to do or think anything. Blue arrows start flowing into her. She tenses up for a second, like she is getting a similar sensation to what I have been getting.

      "There. Very good. Two act as one. Not dreamer. Not dream guide. Two parts of same whole. Think like your Yin-Yang."

      The dream shifts from the outside of the restaurant to my college campus for a second. Then we are standing on the surface of a still lake under the stars. The dream stops when we are in a wheat field. There are some trees in the distance and a huge gas planet with rings in the sky. I can see the stars and bands of galaxies, even in the daytime sky.

      "Now kiss me!"

      " ... Fine."

      We go into kiss and it lasts for a few seconds but I have a false awakening and I am in bed kissing my cat.


      "Yuck! I knew the dream was going to do something gross like that! Sorry, Alana (my cat's name) I was having a lucid dream and I thought you were someone else..."

      I woke up for real a few moments later. Consider that the last time I kiss a DC.

    12. WILD and DEILDs

      7.8.15

      Still on night shifts. Day off.

      Slept from around 2-3 pm, then again later. 2 WBTBs, one around 10 pm and second at 2 am. Both times started out on the sofa. Second WBTB lead to a WILD and DEILDs.

      I started feeling vibrations and reminded myself to open my dream eyes, like what opheliablue does. Was also trying to "fall backwards" and roll out. Soon after I felt the falling backwards and I realized I'm already in a dream. I saw only from the center of my vision, the rest of it was blacked out. But I got up from the sofa.

      I was in a house with family. I chose not to interract with them but headed for the door. I opened it and again a door to the outside.

      It faded and I realized I'm still dreaming so got up again and headed outside. Don't remember much else, because slept another hour after that before getting up.

      Non-lucid before these - I'm on a racing bicycle riding on a snowy road. I have someone on the back of the bike. The snow is covering the whole road and it's all around. It's getting deeper and harder to pedal. We are out in the country, no cars. Now I see 4 cars in the distance coming closer. I hope we can get to the side of the road enough so they don't hit us. First car pulls to his side too much and sideswipes the railing.

    13. Vague Try @ TOTM

      by , 07-08-2015 at 08:41 PM
      Had my first really good high-awareness lucid in a while and made a pass at the mysterious seed task. I remember being semi-lucid chilling with some DCs in a neat building, then suddenly becoming hyper aware. I walk outside, conjuring a seed by rubbing my fingers together and expecting to feel the texture of one there. I plant it in the ground and back away and that is where my recall ends..

    14. Drifting Off WILD

      by , 07-08-2015 at 08:12 PM (Inner World حلم Gamma Waves)
      After struggling to stay awake my eyes somehow went down on their own and not long after trying to open them I found myself in the living room. The lights were on and I turn my head to see there were white spiders raining down on one of the doors. I was already lucid knowing that I wasn't suppose to be here.

      I stop walking and quickly woke up. Lucidty Time: 3 seconds.

    15. From dream to astral

      by , 07-08-2015 at 09:34 AM
      I went to bed at 1 o'clock (for 5 hours of sleep) and I was quite tired. So I started my training routine with a foreknowledge that I would fall to sleep. I do this for shortening time needed to recuperate for the next day. After maybe 10 minutes I lost consciousness.

      After some time I started to dream. I was in some unknown room with two women One was blonde, second was dark haired... It was sunny day. After about 15-20 seconds into dream my consciousness got alerted. I was going to sleep! This is a dream. Wake yourself!!!
      I concentrated inside, my consciousness jumped into overdrive and started to become larger and larger. Women vanished. Surrounding went from sunny day into nearly dark night time. The room lost its real looking and shifted into being my very real bedroom. My clothes vanished. I saw my physical body, dark in the darkness sleeping on my bed. My consciousness grew. My astral body produced dark violet aura with small(1-2cm long) violet lightning bolts dancing on my skin. I started to feel my surrounding. I took large area around myself and implemented it into my consciousness. I reoriented myself and started to fly in the direction, where I felt, I was needed to go. I disregarded everything in my flight path- walls, fences and trees. I flew right through those things. I respected earth's surface, since flying through earth can have negative influence to stability of my astral projection. I tried to fly faster since I felt that I don't have much time. It looked like I was deforming the space in my flight trajectory. I felt quite strong bonds to area I was in... It felt as if they were retarding my speed. But I projected more and more power into faster flying. It functioned somewhat... I started to make something like short but very fast jumps in space. I felt to be about 70% of distance away from my target when my effort started to destabilize my existence there. It was like short circuiting, that violet lightning bolts were larger and larger, until all my surrounding vanished into very bright violet light.
      And I was awake back home in my body.

      Observations
      I don't feel this to be DILD. I got my usual superconsciousness so typical for OBE (astral and higher projections).
      Dream was left as my consciousness grew- I'm not able to do this usually. One needs great concentration to go more aware than in lucid dream, when he starts from dream. Dreaming is a distraction in this case. Lucid dreaming is the same. A distraction.
      How to describe that implementation of surrounding into my consciousness... imagine your senses spread onto that area and taking information directly from it. Like all that surrounding is your body.
      Flying through things was not felt (Good detachment)
      Whole experience lasted about 5 subjective minutes.
