lucid

Note: Dawn was not in his anime form this time. I think I'm starting to recognize a different form that he likes to take. So for my next dream goal I'm going to ask Dawn what form he likes to be in.Also, I did not write my dreams in the notebook so i forgot the first and most of the second dream.

Pizza And Apple pie

Was watching a movie and eating apple pie with two guys and a girl in a restaurant.The movie made me and a guy there laugh a lot. Than suddenly a anime character came out the movie,grabbed my arm and told me not to give up or I'd fall to my doom.

Dawn
I was inside an unfamiliar room trying to fall asleep but than i got up. When I was standing up I suddenly noticed my sister too close behind me so I pushed her away.I than decided to go upstairs and find Dawn or Eye. When I was upstairs I decided to use the phone to call him. But I don't remember if he answered the phone or not. I saw him in the living room when he appeared though. But than after talking to him for a while the dream got unstable and he went somewhere else. I rubbed my hands than started counting. That's when i think the dream shifted. I was now getting out of a car with my brother's friends and my brother. I felt i had lost my hat but realized that what i was actually doing was dreaming.

I started to call Dawn again and the dream setting began to change into my living room. It was day time and people were watching the news. On the news i saw what looked like a special secret service officer type of lady. She was on a court trial than got jumped by men on the court. The video sped up the more i focused on it. After that it changed to the weather and said TUESDAY 4 degrees on the bottom. I ran downstairs after that and looking for Dawn who than hugged me from behind. After that he took me to my younger brother's room.

He showed me some paper drawings of a sad person with the words "I don't like you" or something like that. He showed me some other words too.As he was showing me this he was also talking.I wanted to remember what he said but it was hard to take in for some reason. I got the feeling he was trying to tell me that I was ditching him or hurting his feelings and that i had to be confident with my answer though. He than showed me two huge kanji looking letters that were silver/blue on the top wall that was in front of me(Not the ceiling). There was a small heart design next to one of the characters as well. He left as I was viewing this.

I thought it was cute but got scared and was like "wait a minute...What if he wants my heart." I crawled under a window opening in the room and went through the bars. I flew off to on top of a building. Than flew higher and faster into the distance. As I was passing by stuff I was surprised my senses were working well for this long. The dream felt like it was almost real. I saw a yellow highway and cars passing on the bottom. I wasn't really sure where to go until i ended up at a daycare.There was a familiar looking teacher i recognized and she was alone with the kids. A few kids were misbehaving and i felt bad i could not help her since i was invisible.

*There was also a part in here where I FA and thought i heard a toy action figure. But I don't recall when that was.

The past couple of nights I've had dreams that are lucid or near-lucid. On the first night I enter a bedroom with three figures in it. Two are women with raccoon tails having sex (yes, my dreams are often X-rated). I do a reality check by feeling a dresser in the room. It feels solid, so I think maybe it's not a dream. Then I focus on the third figure, who is a red/dark pink blob. I imagine it a woman. And it is so! I'm excited that I know I'm dreaming now. I have sex with her, transforming her body occasionally. Then I wake.

The next night I'm in a public space, like an airport or casino. A woman walks by me and I telepathically tell her to kiss me. She does so! So I must be dreaming, I think. But I can't get her to do anything else. So my reality check returns a false negative and I conclude that I'm not dreaming.

These two nights have my hopes up that this can be a regular thing.

I went to bed around 10:00 Pm and woke at 3:30 for Wake Back to Bed (WBTB). Read some dream journals, and did some written and spoken mantras (to visit with my daughter while lucid), and then I went to bed and meditated to state where I was consciously awake with my body asleep. Unfortunately, I did fall consciously asleep, and I ended up in a dream where I was driving a snowmobile down a mountainous gravel road during the summer. I was pulling a co-worker on a bobsled, and we were travelling dangerously fast, so she said, “Hey, slow it down a bit!” It sounded like a good idea, so I pulled into a parking lot to take a break. The road just seemed to end in the parking lot, and I found that a bit strange, so then I questioned myself if I was dreaming or not. Yup, definitely dreaming, I’m lucid! I then woke from the excitement and I was back in the void.

I was lying in bed with my mind consciously awake and my body asleep for a short period of time. Then I felt somebody crawl into bed behind me (I was laying on my left side), and then they reached around and hugged me with their right arm. I moved my dream arm carefully, so as not to move my physical arm, and I gently held onto the person’s wrist. It was definitely my daughter’s wrist, because she has very small delicate wrists. We laid quietly for about 5 minutes in ‘the void’, and then I decided to try and speak with my dream voice, “I love you!” It worked! I was able to talk without using my physical voice. I then felt ‘the vibrations’ happening, but I didn’t want to OBE exit because I was perfectly happy just lying there with my daughter. Soon afterwards ‘the vibrations’ ended, and then I heard a lamb go, “Baaaaah!” in my right ear! Little did I know I was false awakened.

I sat up in bed unknowingly in a false awakening, and I saw my wife, son, and my son’s friend, all standing in my bedroom. My bedroom actually appeared as my bathroom, with my bed in it. I could hear rocks rolling around somewhere. I told everybody to get the heck out because I was trying to lucid dream, and they all just laughed at me. My wife passed me the I-pad, but it looked totally different, and I couldn’t get the dang thing to work properly, so I passed it back to her and she closed it like a laptop. All these dream signs and I still didn’t realize this was a false awakening. I was getting real angry with everybody being in my room, so I laid down in bed to fall back to sleep. That’s when I woke for real! Darn, that would have been an awesome lucid dream. Clarity was picture perfect!

In this next dream, I was at a shopping mall talking to a pretty quadriplegic, black haired girl (in her 20’s) who was painting with her mouth. I asked her if she always paints with her mouth, and she replied, “Sometimes I paint with my hair”, as she grabs the paint brush and sticks it in her hair. So I smile and say, “Oh, you’re not paralyzed?”, and she nods ‘yes’ at me. So I sat down beside her to watch her paint, then she sat on my lap. I felt a bit uncomfortable with this, but I was willing to go with it. Then my wife walked up and pushes lightly on the girl’s back to get off me! Trying to avoid trouble, I stand up and walk off with my wife. I reflected on what just happened, and I figured out I was definitely dreaming! Lucid again (DILD)! I then put my hands on my wife’s shoulder and said, “We have to call for our daughter to come!” She momentarily looked puzzled, and then she caught on! We both started calling for our daughter to join us in this dream. We walked up a flight of stairs to a landing, and then my wife became distracted with something. Then I put both my hands on her shoulders and looked her right in the eyes and said, “You must stay focused. Keep calling for our daughter until she comes.” My wife had the strangest looking glowing bluish eyes. She agreed and we continued up to the 2nd storey of the shopping mall.

Suddenly I heard my daughter say, “What? What’s going on? Huh? How come mom’s there?” BTW, there were tons of people in the shopping mall. Then I saw a little girl walk by, I thought maybe that was my daughter, but no, she walked right past us. We continued calling for our daughter. Then my daughter came running up the stairs and towards my wife. She was really young, maybe 5 or 6 years old, with curly blonde hair. My wife scooped her up in her arms with excitement and they hugged and kissed! I ran around to the other side, and together we gave our daughter a huge sandwich hug! That’s when I woke from all the excitement. I wish I could have stayed longer to see what happened next.

Went to bed at 23:10 for 30 min, then at 00:00. WBTB at 04:40 for 20 min. While lying down, rehearsed the Raduga separation technique and made my affirmations. Had mild anxiety and stayed awake for quite some time (over an hour). At some point, I realized that I was looking at a seaside scenery and the image was quite bright. I quickly imagined bringing my hands forward and moving in the scenery.The vividness of the scenery increased and I was there, walking in the seaside street. Yes! I was so happy! I remembered the jogging TotM and decided to keep on walking and observing the scenery. I was walking on a dirt road and on my left was a beautiful sandy beach.
A few bushes were on both sides and beyond the sea, I saw a strange silvering mountain with some kind of flag on top (if that was real, the flag would be huge) that changed shape as I was looking at it. I kept walking and the scenery didn't change a lot, apart from going uphill and downhill and passing by a few trees. Then I noticed that I was being followed by 2 old men. I felt uncomfortable, so I stopped and pushed them both down - knowing its a dream, so it's not bad to do so - and kept walking. I then reached the edge of a really high cliff.

I jumped and started falling really fast. I feared that I would loose visuals as I was floating very high off the ground, so I concentrated on the feel of the air on my hands - that strangely I could feel on my left hand only. Just before touch-down, I glided forward and flew straight upwards. I was over a seaside town and I was trying to maneuver my flight. Having some difficulty, I grabbed the (imaginary) parachute controls - that I had successfully used in another lucid - and started accurately directing my flight. While on air, I tested all movements and I saw that turning left-right and stopping worked immediately, but gaining height had some delay and didn't always work as expected. So, I continued to fly over the house-tops and through the seaside village, immensely enjoying my flight - even though the control was not perfect.

At some point, I felt that my parachute got stack -at an antenna? - so I just let it go, fell on the roof-top and jumped back up, imagining a new control and continuing my flight. At this point, I think that I lost some of the initial lucidity. Some kids are looking up and admiring my flight, so I land and say: come with me, I will show you how to do this. We walk and we come at the same dirt-road I was in the beginning and there were the 2 old men. This time I recognized them as my Father and my Father-in-law and I was very sorry for what I had done... I hugged them, asked them to forgive me and they said: it's ok, go show these kids how to fly! So we walk further trying to find the high cliff - but it's not there anymore. We reach a home and get inside, where in a large hall there are lots of kids asking me if I can fly and how to do it. I said: you first need to know that you are dreaming - and I demonstrate to them a positive finger-through-palm RC. One-by one they successfully try it (one also extended his fingers), so we conclude that we are all dreaming and I say: come with me to show you how to fly! But as we move outside, the dream fades and I am back in bed... I tried the Raduga separation technique but I was quite awake. Tried to go back to sleep so I could have another Lucid but I soon realized that it was late and I was well rested, so I got up and wrote this down, very happy for my Lucid!

I bought a notebook yesterday and wrote my dreams on it after i woke up from them. Which is the reason why I remembered so much. The only problem was that the order of some parts I could not recall for the second dream.

Lies

I and a girl were learning dance moves in front of a school area in order to continue graduating. It was fun and we laughed when we completed it. There was also this obstacle where we would fall to our doom if we made a false move.We than entered the school and walked to a room together where a lady and others were seated at the front desk. They all looked like middle aged gang motorcyclist. The girl told them that we both completed the dance task but they had a very "I don't want to work here" look on their faces. The lady told the girl to show them her I.D. She showed it to her but she said it was outdated and she could not go on into the next room.

One of the men in the room than took out a picture and made a not funny joke about boobs. I forgot what he said though. The others started laughing than the setting began to change and a man who was supposedly waking nomad began to appear.(Of course this is because I was reading the shared dreaming debate thing)I became semi lucid at that point knowing it was a dream but feeling that the people around me were real. A narrator than began to speak saying that Sageous had called together a group meeting. This made me think of the shared dreaming debate thing but I also thought of it as a quest. An old lady than appeared and walked up to me. "Follow me" she said as she pulled me away from the rest.

I was now standing in front of a woman with a beak on her face. I did not find this comfortable at all. "I don't think I want to see someone with a beak on their face" I said. Than the old lady took a purple feather and dropped it near the lady with the beak on the face."See how the feather falls on its own". she said implying it was some mystical experience even though i felt otherwise. I quickly moved away from there. Others in the group were supposed to go now. As they were watching and about to go up, the people who i assumed to be Sageous and Sivason were talking about what was going on in an unimpressed manner but still curious. Suddenly a stage began to rise and there was a miniature horse ride on it.

A young boy i assumed to be my older brother went up onto the stage after the lady asked who would like to speak with the great waking nomad. My brother got on the ride than the curtains began to close. I thought about how dumb this was and what if it was a trick. My brother kept going in the same motion and for some reason i thought he was being raped by waking nomad. I shouted "It's a trick and hes raping my brother!Someone do something!" Characters than came off the stage and cornered me. I was starting to see a portal open. There was yellow sky and a little boy kept telling other kids to wait. But they kept hitting him with a white book or toy. When it stopped i saw a person who I assumed to be Sivason. He said something about how he still wanted to meet with waking nomad. I laughed than told him it was fine if that was what he wanted.

Many Dream Actions

I can't quite recall the order of some parts so I will just write what i remembered.

There was a judge in my house, along with a few other people talking about how the word DC on the bottle meant that a person had to get their liver replaced or donated.

I hit a lady who was with a old woman because of something offensive she did. Than ran away with my mom.

I was inside of a room, I thought to be a dorm room with a guy and two girls. I was suppose to do a a creation paper project with them but i already skipped more classes than i was suppose to so they left and i fell asleep for 2 hours. When i awoke my paper was still on the desk and moving. I felt like i still wished i could show people it.

Than I began thinking about Jessie from full house. Jessie and Rebecca appeared in the room. Jessie began teaching me how to fight people with a pole staff while Rebecca watched. When it was over i hugged Jessie than said good bye to both of them. The people who i thought of my room mates than came back and I told them that they missed out on a cool experience.They didn't seem really interested in what I had to say though. My younger brother than showed up but I forgot what happened after that.


Something else I recall is I was inside a big white room with a group of guys. We were waiting for our children to come into the room. As I was looking around i saw a boy who i thought was my kid and hugged him. But he was a lot taller than i thought he would be."Why am i the shortest person in this room?" I thought to myself. I was even more short than in waking life. After that I looked around for the father of my son. He waved to me and i was happy to see him. After that a video game system appeared and the scene changed.

It was floating right in front of me as I waited for my older brother to get it started. "Its a super Nintendo!" my brother kept saying repeatedly. I thought he was just trying to annoy me. The system than spoke like a female robot before the super Mario character could appear. After that I think that's the time when we ran onto a moving vehicle and were headed through a strange narrow hall that was decorated in things i can't recall. A guy behind me mentioned to be careful with the floating head and that's all i recall about that part.

I was inside a school with a group of teenage girls. I dissed them because of something mean they said and than they began chasing me.As i ran through a group of kids/tables and chairs I was also beating them up.I remember as i was fighting at the end a little girl asked me about Hatsune Mikune. I told her in japanese that Hatsune likes to sing than when i finished the girls off I left.

What else do i remember? I appeared at a plaza and it was sunset but it quickly changed to night."When is the bus going to get here?" I thought.I walked to a corner and heard a man ask about where two buses enter. Another man, dark skinned as well, wearing casual clothing, with a rusty voice said that there was a bus that entered the parkling lot area of the plaza.It was empty though. But since the guy was going to be late he decided to call a Taxi instead.

When they stopped talking a man started talking to me about soap.I thought he was starnge and wanted to get away from him asap. After that I think the bus arrived.

The last thing that occurred in this dream was that I and my mom were at a mall going through many secret passages.We were doing this because we were trying to get away from two older woman in dresses that i got into trouble with. When we went through a secret passage on the floor/stairs my mom spotted a old friend. She was really fat.My mom asked if she gained weight than I jumped down onto the platform the old friend was on. It was a rectangular, wooden platform with 4 strings attached to the angle to hold it up in the air. It seemed like a special seating spot so i jumped down onto it.

My mom climbed on the rope onto the platform and began talking to her old friend along with a co worker who happened to be there. I saw a mini fridge that had a clear view of small Gatorade bottles. There were blue and green liquid inside them. I drank the green bottle and to my surprise it tasted really good. I than jumped off the platform with my mom and spotted a Spanish cousin. There was a beach to the side and he was eating a star fruit. I told him excitedly to please get me one. He said okay but after he was done eating.

After that someone showed me to a door where there was another beach.I saw cool interesting characters in there and said that i was liking what i saw. As we were walking a bunch of little kids ran up to me . I said hello than started walking with them. But suddenly my perspective changed to view a little anime boy who was in the group who got his shorts muddy.He tried pulling them up but was still afraid for his mom to see them. His friend that was with him mentioned how he really wanted to go swimming with him. But the boy said he couldn't. I think the mom than came into view. After that I woke up.

Riding On A Shopping Cart?

I was inside a city and it was the afternoon. I was riding a shopping cart,trying to cover myself with a blanket because i think i was kidnapped or doing a shoot and it led to me being in my underwear. When I got back to a secret place my uncle was going to put a movie on but i wanted to draw and cut out paper of creatures. One of mine came into life and turned into a black,strong Jaguar that was male. He had long sharp pointy teeth and told my family who was around to stay out of his way so that he could carry out his plans into motion. His voice was deep and he seemed like such a cool character.

After that something else happened where i was showing a group of people how realistic a animation of a boy I did looked.It was starting to come to life as well and talking to me and the people i showed. Than i appeared in a room inside my house. My cousin was playing Melee but I did not want to play with her so i went downstairs. Another cousin of mine came and tried to get in my way as i was walking through the hall. Her face did not look like her but i did not question it. I've seen this face in a dream many times before but i still remained non lucid. Her face was sort of hurt.

I looked to the room she went in and she sat down next to my older brother to play video games with him. I told her i didn't want to play video games so she didn't have to push me. I than walked away and woke up.

Well the past few days I have had no recall whatsoever, and didn't feel like doing check in entries for one reason or another. It's nice to get going again with a short lucid.

The first dream (nonlucid) had to do with some kind of demonic nuclear device going off very near to me. I was able to generate some kind of invisible lead shield as the blast passed over me. When it cleared (not caring about radiation) I began looking for other survivors.

I found my friend A who was in his alien persona. He was hurt pretty bad and I had to bandage his wound with my shirt. He was bleeding blue glowing blood.

The nuke went off outside the library on my college campus. I remember seeing the flames having skulls and hands reaching out to grab me inside of them.

The dream repeated at least once.

-wbtb-

I can't remember what I dreamed of prior, but I was driving around in the car quite a lot. I became lucid when I pulled over into this gas station/grocery store type thing to ask for directions. I saw Morgan Freeman in there and that made me reality check and become lucid.

I then realized that I was still shirtless from the last dream. I think one of the DCs in the store pointed that out to me. There was a large mirror leaned against the wall. It was not a pretty sight. For some reason I had a huge round hairy stomach. I thought it was kind of funny and held it and jiggled it around to see how it felt.

I then decided it was better to change back into my normal self. I closed my eyes and opened them telling myself I would be back to normal. I had the body of a chubbier female now. Oops. That's my transgendered side talking again. I played around with that body for a few moments as well.

I decided to try one more time. I focused on changing into either my dream self or my waking life self. What I got was an anime version of dawn, only shorter, with my normal body proportions. Okay, I'll take what I can get.

I then had another question. What would happen if I were to do a flip in a dream. I sort of knew that It would probably just end up destabilizing the dream. So I tried one. Yep super destabilized. For some reason, I felt like I was injured or weakened after doing that. I couldn't get up.

I tried to re-stabilize the dream. I remember reaching with my right hand onto one of the shelves in the store and feeling for whatever item was there that I could use to stabilize. I couldn't see it, the whole dream had gone white, but I could tell it was a clay pot with soil in it, but no plant.

I lost the dream and FA'd. The following dream was more like hypnoponic imagery though, just some flashes of my Taekwondo class.

1. I was walking down a dark corridor with some type of assault rifle in my hand. It felt like I was literally in a game of Call of Duty. Everything was dead silent and there was no noises to be heard except for the noises I made from walking and breathing and such. The walls in this place that I was in were a deep indigo in color. I turn a corner and suddenly I see a soldier fully armored, pointing his gun at me. Immediately we start shooting each other. I start jumping around trying to dodge bullets. The other soldier pulls out a double barrel shotgun and shoots me. This time I couldn't dodge the bullet, and I get shot and die.
The dream goes to the point of view of what is called a "KillCam" in Call of Duty which is basically seeing yourself getting killed in 3rd person. As I watch the killcam, I suddenly become Lucid and I shoot back into 1st person view. The soldier with the shotgun is still in front of me, but now he is neutral and just looks at me with curiosity. I walk around the corner that we started shooting each other in and I start walking down another hallway. I realize that walking through this maze of hallways is going to take forever, so I start climbing up the walls, which are about 50 feet high in length.
About 10 feet up the wall I start hearing what sounds like alot of people walking towards the area I am in. I look down and sure enough there is an entire group of at least 100 or more people. They all have zombie like eyes and they start to climb after me. "I don't have time for this" I think to myself. I then decide to try teleporting/summoning at the same time. "Bring me [name of a certain girl]!!" I yell out to the dreamworld. Suddenly I start seeing my room merge into my vision. "What's going on?" I think to myself. I think that I am waking up, but later on I find out that another dream started to overlap the one I was already in.
In my vision, I now see half of the maze hallways I am climbing, and in the other half I see my room in broad daylight with my fan going. I still think that I am waking up. Because I thought this, I go into the dream where my room is at by default. I am now in my room standing at the foot of my bed, thinking that I am now awake.

Note: This is the first time I have ever experienced 2 dream layers starting to mix together. OmkAR has had this happened to him many times. Next time I will combat this layer.

#427 - DILD - 12:08AM

I went to bed around 9pm but was having another very restless night. I ended up meditating a little and then falling asleep with "lucid dreaming" as a mantra.

I am driving; following my mom in another car. We are going to church, but she's super early for some reason. I turn off decided to see if Wal-Mart has an item I need IWL. As I turn down a side street, I contemplate going to church with my parents. I shout out loud, "I DON'T WANT TO GO TO CHURCH!" I look up at my rear-view mirror and see myself. I have a scowl on my face and my hair looks disheveled. Then, it dawns on my that I don't have to anymore. I'm a grown ass man. I decide I'll not go to church, but not go home either. I'll just spend the time shopping for stuff I've been wanting to buy.

I am suddenly in a fast food restaurant and I realize this sudden change in scene triggering lucidity. The first thing I think of is to find Bemistaken. I don't know why, but I feel like the women's restroom is the more logical place to look. I look to my left and see the restroom sign and entryway. I shout for Bemistaken and a stall opens up. A woman pops her head out smiling, but she only looks like a poor imitation. Rather than probing farther, I quickly dismiss the woman. I suddenly, recall the mirror task from last month and remember that I wanted to do it better. I turn to the sinks and push my face into the glass. The other side looks much the same, but I decide it must have just taken me through the wall into the men's room. The dream is starting to fade now, but I manage to look around and see urinals to confirm my idea. I quickly wake up.

2:09AM

I am on a plane ride with my wife and kids. I try for a window seat but the plane is made like a hotel room. There are recliners near a large plane glass window. I want to take pictures of the view, but I have to fasten my way too young baby daughter in her car seat.

5:45AM

I am with all the people I work with and we all see a tornado in the distance. I take a snapchat video and watch the replay. I can see sparks from power lines snapping. Suddenly, one is much closer and coming our way. We all turn to go back inside, but we are just in some old trailer house. It's a small tornado that blows over us. I heard popping and crashing, some glass shatters, but we are all fine. I ask about [someone] and my boss says she was caught outside. I go out and see my car is totally flat. I cry about not buying the Gap Insurance. I go to find my wife in another trailer. Her father is there and I ask about her whereabouts. He just shrug like he doesn't care. I berate him for this and then find her sleeping on a cot. I tell her about the car but she just stares at me blankly. I go outside to take a video of myself and my car. I try to tell what happened but I keep getting choked up. I should have just bought the Gap Insurance.

I was in a tunnel, rolling down rapidly while hearing a few clowns laugh. I poke my head out through an opening once and notice I was in a children playground center. I pop my head back in and climb my way back up to see what's at the end of the tunnel. As I go higher and higher a mist begins to become more frequent. It eventually blinds me till I started rolling down once more. I pop out of the inflated children building and see my two parents waiting for my return.

Before I approach both of them, I took the time to look to the side of the inflated playground. There was a ladder curled up but very large. My hand accidently knock it's cover off making apart of it come down. I check the employee that was working here did not notice what has happen. That is when I chose to sneak out and meet up with my parents outside. We began walking toward a road section and cross the road with two other people.

While we're at the middle of the road waitinf for other cars to pass by, my father ask me do I feel well or am I sick? I tell my father no I fine, when we notice no cars coming ahead we continue walking. I can now see a grassy field with kids playing soccer on it. Among them was my brother who was heading our way. My Father ask me me the same question, I told him you should already know that I never get sick. We all greeted my brother and walk on the side walk. Oneo f the kids kick the soccer ball to his way and he kick it back before I could.

The scenary had change in to the living room with the lights some what off. There was al ot of noise and quickly some person punch me in the nose. I stated my nose was bleeding and saw a few kids forcing a man on the ground. I went to the sink to wash out the blood till I notice the lights had came on. There was a kid wh othrew water all over my shirt, he quickly said it was my fault for being in the way. I got irritated and told him you're not suppose to throw things at other people.

The boy kept on doing the same thing so I force the bottle out of his hand with some effort. The bottle was purple and I believe it had a white flower label on the side. I began walking till the dream fade out.

I start off in third person point of view. My catches two creatures fighting from a distance. My focus begins to shift to them as my eyes feel like they are being drawn closer and closer to them. I am able to fully analyze the two. One appeared to be a butterfly/woman agaisnt a Lion headed man. The two were fighting on water and some how their feet does not submerge in to the ocean. The lion had just attack and quickly the Butterflywoman was knock off balance and softly began sinking downwards. Soon she rises back up with her wings still intact. The Lionman was no where to be seen. My line of sight increase in till it became first person point of view.

Once this happen I became lucid. I notice the butterflywoman laying on the water. Not far, was my Ra necklace. I walk toward it to pick it up. There had been a song playing all this time, the song mimic the fights progression. I begin to talk to myself about lucid dreaming while staring at the ocean. I realize I wasn't falling under the ocean either. Before I knew it my eye sight was staring inside my father room. I was awake. Lucidity Time: 6 seconds

I haven't posted in a little bit, but I have been keeping track of my dreams! Alot of them I have been writing in my paper journal for lack of time online, and when I couldn't do that I have an emergency "sketchbook" style notebook to write quick notes in. Realistically I have alot of these sketch-style notes that need to be transformed into journal entries.

But here I will tell you about how I got Lucid FINALLY after recording and obsessing about recording! In it, my dream journal, the thing most on my mind lately, became my dream-sign.

3.30.2015

It starts out on a farm my landlord owned in my dream. I was looking after it for them with a dream-sister, although there wasn't much to take care of. All the animals they owned had disappeared without a trace, and no one knew what happened to them. I think this mystery, among other things, is what caused them to keep away from the farm and ask me to watch it for them. The farm was a very dull and bleak looking place. Imagine a cold winter day before any snow has fallen on the ground, but all the leaves had fallen from the trees. Barren trees, dull orange dry leaves, dull grey sky. It looked like it was 6AM, just before sunrise, all day long. And this appearance permeated through the entire farm, into the house. It was just very depressing.

There were other mysteries too. You would hear footsteps of people walking on the second floor, but no one besides me and my little sister were there. I think the farm hands and other people who worked on the farm disappeared along with the animals, so hearing footsteps was eerie. I think there was an understanding that something unearthly occupied the farm, although I am not 100% sure.

As to my dream-sister, she looked nothing like my actual sister in real life. I might add also, that alot of times in my dreams I am accompanied by a dream-friend or a dream-sister or my own sister in real life. I am rarely alone in my dreams. I like to think its my dream guide. This particular companion was a young girl of 10 or so, with blonde hair done up in pigtail style braids. She wore an old fashioned dress.

I remember a couple scenes in this house. I remember me and my sister in an office type of space attempting to hook up a laptop so we could use the internet. The only part of this room I really remember is the desk the laptop laid on, and the laptops themselves. The desk was that cheap particle board style desk you see in offices, with the base of the desk being made of beige colored metal. Everything was dusty, too. There was a main section of the desk where the "main laptop" would sit, and two fold out wings, slightly lower than the main portion, where smaller laptops sat. It was designed for a team to sit at the same desk and work together side by side. We were very excited to try and get it to work, but like I said..it was quite dusty and unused. I don't think we could get the computers to even power on, or there just was no internet in the area.

I remember walking through a small dark hallway in the home to get to a bedroom with my sister. A greenish yellow light glowed through one room to accent the darkness, like a painted yellow window bringing in the dull grey atmosphere of the outside into house. The bedroom, too, had a dusty, grey, old feel to it. The bed looked like it came out of the 1980s, infact. Another particle board mess, very low key and geometric, Blonde "wood", and pastel colored sheets. I think the whole reason I went lucid was because of what I did next. I was acting as if I was awake, and I had to go to sleep. My sister suggested I lay down, and I did. I laid down in the 1980s bed, laying in the same position I use in waking life, to my left side facing a wall. This is where I heard the walking and banging upstairs as I tried to fall asleep. My landlords in real life live above me in my house, and it is an actual thing for them to make lots of noise when getting ready for work at 4 AM. I think my mind was recreating this, only in my dream, ghostly things were stomping around instead.

I did my best to ignore it, covering my head with the blanket and closing my eyes. Very weird to try and sleep when in a dream, but it was just as it was in real life. Nothing zany happened when I closed my eyes, just the usual darkness. The banging continued, but I just ignored it and continued to focus on falling asleep.

This next part, I don't know in what order of the dream it occurred. Maybe here!

I remember I had wanted to grab my dream journal and "emergency" red journal from home, because I knew I would be staying at the house for a while and wanted to use the opportunity to write down all these dreams I have been stockpiling for the past few days. I remember going to my boyfriends house - not my house! - and searching for them around and under the cushions of their living room couch. I reached under the leftest most cushion and..voila! my dream journals! Just as I found it, a little funny gremlin looking demon appeared to my right, in the fireplace or floating near it. He wasn't a menacing monster, just something you would imagine seeing in a kids book or a cartoon. Ugly, but not scary. He popped in to taunt me about my sister, how I left her all alone. He told me she was in danger in a mocking way. Maybe he even implied HE was kidnapping her! I got angry and nervous, and decided to get my butt back to the farm house to make sure she was ok. I vaguely remember the demon showing me a video of my sister. She was sitting with other kids in a daycare setting (the same grey dullness), doing some kind of craft project on little circular tables like you'd see in a school. Suddenly someone called to her, and she got up and walked off camera. So, I rushed to her rescue!

I guess my sister was taken to the usual place bad stuff happens in my dream, my childhood home, "B Street". Always, no matter what, I find myself back in that house with its spooky basement full of ghosts! Anyways, I had to take a train there to rescue her, but I missed it completely.

Rather than give up hope, however, I said "why don't I just fly there?"

This is where things get weird. I cant figure out how all this worked out in my dream. Maybe it just doesn't make sense! I am back sleeping in the 1980s bed, or maybe I woke up a little in real life, or maybe I was just dreaming of dreaming again. Whatever the case, I was back to having my eyes closed like I was trying to go to sleep. When I suggested to myself to just fly there, a flash of purple and pink lit up my blackness, and the desire to fly to where I needed to go went from just a mere thought in my head, to a visualization, to a dream. I saw myself sliding down a steep hill like a videogame character, and saw myself glide over a gap at the end of this hill to a platform on the other side. (Very videogame-like. Just imagine Mario64 styled levels or Banjo Kazooie. Very polygonal, this section.) At this point I was having trouble. Its always a gamble with me when it comes to transitioning from "vague idea/visualization" to "holy crap I am dreaming!" because at some point you need to "open your eyes". When visualizing the gliding/flying, my eyes were "closed". I flew from that platform I glided to, and flew a little more to land in a small polygonic valley on the other side. I felt the sensation, that wonderful sensation, of dream flying while I did this. But my eyes were still "closed". I landed all cool in a fancy crouching pose, and just stayed there for a little bit.

"You have to open your eyes, you know." I thought to myself. "Its always a gamble, but you have to try!"

So I did. The first try, I opened my eyes to a faded black scene, like a stage set where all the lights are out. You can just see the vague shapes of the things around you but nothing concrete at all. It was because I was trying to go to B street, still determined in my mission. I was trying to visually construct that place with my consciousness, but I just sucked at it. I saw shaped of trees, and the valley I was in sort of transformed into a little side lawn on a side of a house that actually was on B street. But it was all dark and formless. So I closed my eyes again, and thought really hard. "You're in B STREET!". I opened them again. Same thing. I closed them again. As usual when in these kind of pickles, I said "screw it, let me just let the dream take me where it wants me to go." After coming to terms with my suckiness, I opened my eyes one final time.

Oh sweet goodness! So wonderful to open your eyes when lucid to a new world!

I was not in B street at all. I was in something that looked like it came out of the newer Willy Wonka movie. I was still in my little valley, and it was still kind of dark like before, but past this was a vividly colorful hill, a bright spring green. It was framed by bright red velvet and gold tasseled stage curtains, and it went up in steps to a scene on the tippy top, like a big green staircase. At each "step", red and white candy cane looking swirlie structures decorated the hill. There were yellow and white flowers, too, and maybe a cobblestone walkway. I was, as usual, in awe of the clarity of being here, and just took it all in. I tried rubbing my hands to get more in the moment, but it didn't really bring any texture or more realism to the situation. I usually don't bother with sensation alot anyways. I find constantly rubbing my hands to be distracting, but I do try it from time to time. I saw on the top of a hill, a little scene. Maybe a tree in shadow, with a park bench sitting besides it, and someone lounging in it, like they were sleeping. It was either my sister fainted from being kidnapped, or the bad guy in the plot lounging in a smarmy sort of way. I couldn't see the top immediately, so I focused my eyes (go me for doing more than one focusing technique!), and as I did so I began walking up the hill.

Like a dream does, as I neared the top, the scene transformed. I also got a little more numb the closer to the top of the hill I got, but I was still using my conscious mind just fine. The top of the hill transformed itself into a medieval/fantasy looking church, and waiting inside for me was the villain. The church was completely open from where I walked into it. Inside, it had a lobby sized area for maybe a couple of people or parishioners to sit. It was small by cathedral standards but it also fluctuated in that respect as well. To the left of the "parishioner" area was a rounded room, almost a large alcove. It was completely walled in glass windows that gave a view to a forest outside. In front of the parishioner area was where the priest would usually go. In the dream this section was only a few steps higher than the congregation area, whereas in real life its usually a little taller I think. There was a big rounded stain glass window here like a traditional church, but the exit door to the other side of the church was there too. The right side of the church was just a wall. The entire thing was in light grey stone, with pillars and steps and all the nice things you'd find in an older church. Where the priest's place was stood the villain. It was a taller 20 year old with brown-red hair and pale skin, wearing black. She was a vampire. She kidnapped my sister and was going to feed off of her and turn her into a vampire, too. I am not sure what ended up happening to my sister in this struggle. the brunette vampire was, I think, behind her and sucking on her neck or threatening to. She might have even turned her into a vampire already and I had to fight her off. Whatever the case, my sister was getting in the way of my battling the evil vampiress. Either I had to break her neck and push her into the window alcove, or the vampiress threw her in there after sucking on her blood and she passed out and fell in there. In the dream, as in my favorite show "Vampire Diaries", cracking ones neck didn't kill them immediately. It just sort of knocks someone out.

(I was still SLIGHTLY lucid btw.) I tried to punch at the vamp while she hid behind my sister. My punches connected but they did little to her, and she laughed them off. Once my sister was out of the way, I kept trying to punch her out and stop her from killing her and me. I didn't want to kill the evil vamp I don't think. I wanted to either cure her or just stop her from hurting other people. If there was a way to end it in a peaceful or less definitive way, I was willing to try it. However, my methods were not working, and I decided I had to worry more about my unconscious sister than keeping this woman alive. Now that I think of it, I think my sister was going to turn into a vampire, so it was a race against time to stop the villain before she turned. I think I needed the evil villain's blood to stop the transformation, or killing off the villain stopped it. Since I was so stressed for time, I reach over to the brunette vampire, said "Ah screw it!", and snapped her neck. Instantly she crumpled to the floor, completely defeated.

I ran over to where my sister was laying and helped her up as she came to. Did I give her blood? Not sure. She looked differently at this point, though. What was once my blonde, fancy dressed little sister was a squat little anime chibi dressed in kimono. She had a big bobble head, and her hair was black now. She stood up and was fine.

After that I woke up and happily wrote all this down! Yay!

Influences:
VAMPIRE STUFF: Definitely Vampire diaries! One of few shows I watch, I guess I was thinking about it that night. I even thought perhaps the bad guy of this show, "Claus", was in my dream!
Stompy stomp stomp above my head!: My landlord's wonderful habit of causing ruckuses every morning. Its why I wear earplugs.
Getting to sleep: I have been OBSESSING with going to bed at a good hour since restarting my Lucid dream mission!

And of course, my dream sign was MY DREAM JOURNAL because of my recent obsession with writing in it. Having it in my hand in the dream made me think of dreaming, so I was able to easily figure things out. Dreaming was on my mind, so it was an easy transition, and my journal was the reminder!

In this dream I was riding a ten speed bike in a race through the mountains of Chile. I looked around and thought to myself, “Why am I racing a bike in the mountains of Chile? I can barely ride a bike, how is this happening?” Bingo! Lucid! The first thing I did was race to the front of the pack, and then I left them in a blur, and soon I was passing cars. I forced the bike faster and faster, without any fear whatsoever. There were many crests in the road, and my bike was launching into the air! It was fun, and totally unrealistic, but just the same, it was fun! In the distance I saw the finish line approaching, so flew with my bike through the air (like ET on nitrous) and under the finish ribbon, sliding sideways to a stop. A teenage girl walked past me with ‘real’ looking eyes, so I gave her a hug thinking she was maybe my daughter. She got pissed off at me and she pushed me away (nope, not my daughter). I said to her, “I just wanted a hug.” Then I turned to the crowd at the finish line and asked them if anybody has seen my daughter. A group of girls heard me and they all looked very interested in what I said, but then I woke.

In this second dream I was lucid, but I can’t remember how or why I became lucid. I was standing on a balcony, high up on a building, which was alongside a fairly narrow river. The fellow beside me shot a zip line across the river and into the brick wall of a boardwalk. The line went down at a very steep angle, and was it was totally unsafe, but whatever, this is a dream! I quickly latched my Kingsnap onto the zip line, and I went shooting down towards the boardwalk at a very high speed. I heard somebody say, “Look at that, that’s totally nuts!” At about 20 yards from the boardwalks’ brick wall, I disconnected my Kingsnap and went sailing feet first into the river. Splash! The water was perfectly blue, and I couldn’t see the bottom. I then started to breathe comfortably under the water as I swam for the surface. I swam and swam, but I couldn’t find it, and soon after I woke.

In this 3rd lucid dream I was climbing a ladder up the side of a building, and there was one guy above me and one below. Suddenly, and quite unexpectedly I farted! I looked at the guy below me and said, “Oops, did I fart?”, and then a World War II gas mask appeared on his face! This was a fragmented lucid dream, so I don’t remember what happened next.

In this 4th dream, I was lying beside my bed talking to a woman, when I became spontaneously lucid. I thought the woman looked like my wife’s cousin Kim. My bedroom was dark, but she was glowing slightly white. I said, “Kim, is that you?” She replied, “Yes”, so I floated up off the ground so I was face to face with her. She wasn’t Kim. I said, “Who are you?” By this point she looked a bit frightened and she started to float up towards the ceiling, so I stayed right face to face with her and followed. She then started to pass through the ceiling, and I said, “No wait, please stay!” She vanished, and I woke. A couple of days later, on Mar 24, I had a lucid dream with my daughter, and I met this woman again. Her name is Mila.

In this 5th dream, I was lucid at a swimming pool (not sure why). I looked over the edge of the pool and saw a bunch of kids sitting on the bottom, so I dove in to join them. I sat down beside them and I was breathing normally. They were all just hanging out down there, and chatting with each other. I got bored, so I started to swim around the pool, and I then I woke again.

ULTRA-INCEPTION: ToTM Done ~ Over 15 FAs, 10 lucids and non lucids in one single dream and dreams within dreams (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I have a long load of dreams to upload, but since this is a ToTM I must now. Been busy and I am behind in writing everything down. This was a very strange dream, a mix of astral projection, lucids, non-lucids and waking... I ended up very confused when I woke up for real.

I had a FA in a big hotel room, I believe I was in Australia. This was a very long dream and I lost some of what happened, but a weird wasp stung me and layed some eggs under my skin. Said eggs hatched almost right away and I started to feel very sick. I went to the ER and I was told that surgery was needed. They needed total anesthesia and I was worried because I just ate. I figured I was going to get sick big time once the procedure ended. I realized that I was probably going to astral project due the anesthesia. When they administred it, I passed out and suddenly, found myself floating above my body.

I was dreaming of an Astral Projection, but non lucidly. I was flying around and I passed out again.

I had a series of FAs and falling asleep several times, like a big loop.

At some point I did a RC and realized I was dreaming. Despite being lucid, I was still buying that my physical body was receiving surgery. I was in a big house and I took a flight to make my dream stable. The sky was clear and I could see a very bright light. It reminded me of the Bonus task of the month, to visit the ISS and watch a sunrise over our planet.

Flying to space was pretty easy for me and soon, I got to the ISS. As I was approachng at it, it looked like the real thing, but then, suddenly it morphed into something like this:







I was standing on the edge of this station and I could see our planet and a very bright light on the very edge. I saw the Sun rising right behind the Earth and the beams of light from the sun had a few different shades of yellow, white and red. I was happy to accomplish the ToTM Bonus so I decided to complete some dares, however, I passed out again.

I had another FA, I was in a room and I realized it was not the hospital. I turned lucid and double checked checking my hands. I could hear a lot of noises, like hospital noises despite I was outdoors in another dream. I started to worry about the surgery and lost lucidity.

I had another few chains of FAs small lucids passing out and more non lucid dreamlets, all with brief real awakenings (in my real bed) and installing back to dreaming.

I had another layer in the same dream where I was projecting myself and I saw my body, almost wrapped up with the surgery. I had x-ray vision and I could see how they removed all the parasite eggs from my body. I also saw my stomatch, still full with food and I knew i was going to puke everything and feel horrible once I woke up from the surgery. I could touch other people while in this ghost form and they would feel me, but not see me, I was fooling for a while.

I FAed in the hospital bed, and I was feeling pretty bad. I passed out.

I had another FA in vegas. I had a short lucid and I quickly passed out once again to find me in another false awakening.

I had then again another FA in my car. I was parked in front of a Wallgreens and my wife was in the passenger sit (I was driving asleep? lol) I turned lucid out of all the non-sense, but my wife told me that I was not dreaming and prevented me to do a reality check. I knew this was not my wife because we encourage each other to do a RC.

Other FA in a room.

Another FA in a different room, outside a building at night. There was a car parked and they asked me if I enjoyed my trip. Apparently, they caused all of these dream to happen, it was a company called, "9 clairvoyants dreamer"

I woke up for real.

I did over 15 different RCs where all gave positives (I was awake...) but still I felt afraid I would be fooled again. I went to pee and wanted to go back to bed, I knew eventually I would be 100% back in the waking plane.

Supermarket

I in my younger brother's room and my mom called me saying she wanted me to go with her to the supermarket. I said okay but after I use the bathroom. I went to go to the bathroom but couldn't make it. The scene than changed to a parking lot for the supermarket. My mom shouted for me to hurry up on the phone I had so I went into the supermarket.As I was walking there were two guys, a tall one and one shorter than the other, walking with a camera i think. They were talking about people and psychological reasons for why people do things or something like that. I think as they were talking they were looking for people to answer questions so i volunteered. But as we were talking their attention was pulled into the other places of the supermarket.

I decided to just forget it and to go look for stuff i wanted to buy. I was going to go to the fruit aisle but ran into a few kids. I saw one go through something red. I think it was a cart.I thought about how strange it was that he managed to OBE. I tried to OBE in the dream but than decided not to since I wasn't into it. I walked to another aisle where the candy were and saw a family talking about recess pieces in the shape of a square,inside a small glass case.I wanted to say something about how small it was but than the dad interrupted me. Saying he didn't want a stranger speaking to his kids. I than flew a bit through the aisle and saw a witch that looked like a maleficent cartoon. But she was wearing purple and had a different bird to her side that was purple too.

She started talking about how she was going to kill a man after she tricked him.I than looked at my arms and noticed there was blue and red marker colored on my left and right arm. Mainly over my veins and wrist.The veins seemed to be in red. I waited till they were gone as I pondered who might have done this. Than they disappeared and than the dream shifted. I was now watching an adventure time animation of a island, the picture was moving from left to right showing the landscape. Then Fin came into view. He was on top of a white round building with other people.The color was kind of faded in this video. Bad men were on a ship.

Fin yelled for them not to shoot. But the Bad guys shot at them anyways and the building fell apart. Fin and those on the building fell into the ocean and somehow the bad guy's ship got hit by the rubble and they fell in too. When everyone arrived at the bottom no one drowned because they could breathe under water except fin. So a alien type of worm looking creature had to swallow fin into his mouth and give him underwater breathing ability. The alien's mouth was still open as he spoke. Everyone began to move along in the ocean and Fin was disappointed with how things were going. The alien creature that swallowed fin told him "It's not about the ending. You gotta make the best of what's the journey." He than grew hands and showed Fin how two of his finger were battling in a cool way.

I was impressed by the animation at this point. Than all of a sudden he started turning into Dawn. I was like woah.Than I randomly appeared on a bed in the living room. It was night and everyone sleeping. I was watching a video now of a girl telling a story about a fairy that watched as her evil emperor father burned in the fire behind a column without helping him .So she could assume his position after he died. It than showed her taking orders from insect like people. After that It stopped and I was now listening to the kingdom of heart 2 opening song as I was trying to fall asleep. I was singing it too. Then it ended and I appeared in my room downstairs with the light's on. There were two beds in my room and apparently it was the day that my aunt had arrived for a visit. I could hear her talking to someone in the background as i was looking at anime pictures and comments.

Slowly voices started to appear of people talking about how there were a lot of anime that recently ended and how a lot of new ones was about to start. After that I think I did something related to equipping a robot dog with abilities. But that may have been earlier in the dream. I can't remember.

Glitchy Dream

I recall laying in bed than all of a sudden a dc came in and started acting crazy.I asked it why it was acting all crazy and what did it represent. The DC than handed me a tablet and told me to listen to the music on the tablet. There was a song playing about how the singer wanted to be poor. I didn't really understand it. Than the dream shifted and I remember hearing loud heavy metal music and reappearing on the bed like 6/8 times in a row every time i tried to move. After that it changed into a scene where Shirobako characters were dancing and singing on a carnival ride.

Talking On The phone

I was walking on the streets and stumbled on a line of high school students with their teachers.For some weird reason i walked into the alley way where the garbage was put. But there was none there. I walked back out wondering why i did that. Teachers called their students than began to leave. I continued walking home than suddenly appeared in my room.I was talking to JadeGreen on my brother's phone through messaging and voice to voice. I think we were talking about lucid dreaming or about a story.I was wondering for a bit when did i start talking to Jade on the phone when suddenly it hit me.

"I'm dreaming!!" I said happily. Jade was still trying to talk to me on the phone though. I told him that this was a dream. Than the phone turned off. My younger brother came in and i told him not to get in my way since i was lucid now. I ran upstairs and noticed my father. Out of no where he told me to not use the phone anymore since Verizon was outside trying to break into our house.I looked out the window from a distance and saw many black cars than went to the kitchen for some reason.The food distracted me and i became non lucid wondering what to eat for breakfast. I saw yummy muffins hanging on the fridge and wanted to eat one.

: P Not much lucidity.

1. My Dad had just woken me up and told me that we(the family) were all going to Burger King. I got up, got dressed, and we all got in my mom's car and dad drove to Burger King. My awareness started kicking in when my dad drove into the heart of our neighborhood and there was a random Burger King there. "Wait, that's not right" I thought to myself. Something felt odd, I felt a certain feeling, like everything around me wasn't real. At this point I was basically semi-lucid. My dad parked the car and we all got out and went inside.
As we got inside, I noticed that Burger King's interior looked alot different. My family ordered, but I didn't get anything. Now the feeling that I had not to long ago of everything not being real started to get stronger. I remember that my dad kept bugging me to order something and I eventually told him, "No, I don't want any food dad. I didn't want to come here you made me get up" in an agitated voice. Right after that I went over to the only other person eating in Burger King, an African American dude with short dreads. I looked at him as he ate his burger(I don't do this in real life lmao).
I decided that I wanted to go outside to get some fresh air, so I walked out the front entrance. Suddenly I become Lucid. I remember going to look for something and flying, but other than that, the rest of my recall has diminished. I'll fix that.

High School Gym, Dancing with my Daughter, Sick Boy and Girl, & Water Bending Attempt - Mar 21, 2015

Prior to my WBTB I had a Dream Induced Lucid Dream (DILD). In this dream I was a passenger in the back seat of a convertible. This fellow walks up beside the car and hits me in the forehead with an object (not sure what). I got a bit pissed so I reached up and grabbed him by his collar with my right hand and signalled ‘No’ with my left hand, waving my finger back and forth. He then goes to the fellow in the front passenger seat and says something to him, then he turns to me and says without expression, “I’m one of your dream guides and I’m trying to make you lucid.” Well, saying that certainly worked (not sure about hitting me in the forehead though)! Smoke started pouring out of the engine hood, and we got out to investigate. A bunch of my co-workers then showed up and helped us put the fire out by using water bottles. I then woke up, and it was time for my regular WBTB routine. Strangely when I woke I saw the numbers 3:31 floating and fading out in the air above me, and then I looked at the real clock and it said 3:35 Am. My real clock is 4 minutes fast. That’s never happened before. Maybe it was a false awakening?

After my WBTB routine, I had another DILD (I had fallen consciously asleep while in ‘the void’). In this dream I was walking into my high school gym, and it certainly was not the way it was supposed to be! When I entered the gym there was a 3 ½ foot tall concrete railing spanning the entire width of gym, and on the other side it dropped down into two lower levels. I instantly became lucid! I momentarily considered jumping over the concrete railing and going for a flight, but I felt a bit acrophobic, so I aborted mission. Instead I turned around and came face to face with a lightly glowing, male, dream figure. When I saw him, he quickly turned away and pretended he didn’t notice me when I said, “I’m dreaming”. The excitement of the moment caused me to wake.

I fell back to sleep and found myself becoming spontaneously lucid in this memorable dream with my daughter. Everything was perfectly clear and vivid, better than waking life! I walked into a dance hall with at least 100 people dancing to a classic county tune. It looked like square dancing to me, but what do I know about that? The music was very loud. I remembered my dream intent to visit with my daughter, so I started calling her name as I walked around the perimeter of the dance floor. When I reached the front of dance floor I discovered a smaller, circular, empty dance floor with bright colorful pot lighting above. It backed onto the larger dance floor, and the DJ was standing on an elevated platform with all his equipment. As I walked across the smaller dance floor a new song started to play and it was a groovy, hip hop tune with a kickin’ bass beat. The pot lights started keeping beat with the music. Well, I instantly started dancing with myself, and I was really getting into it! That’s when the DJ said, “We’ve got a dancer here!” The tone of his made it sound like, “Oh, here’s another mindless, zombie dreamer going through the instinctual motions.”, but I was fully aware of my environment and I noticed all the people on the main dance floor were now watching me. I didn’t care, I was having fun!

A group of teenage boys and girls then came running up to my dance floor and started dancing all around me! That’s when I noticed my daughter was in the group! She was wearing a horizontal black and white striped hoodie with the front zipper undone. I called over to give me hug, but she said, “No, I want to dance!” She glanced over at the crowd, and then continued dancing. Then I said, “Daughter come and give me a hug, I need a hug!” She said, “Okay.”, then she ran over to me and I scooped her up in my arms. “Dad, you did it again!”, and then I told her that I loved her (of course). She said, “Dad, it takes so long.” (the time between lucid visits), and I said, “Daughter, it’s hard to do this.” She then got a sad look on her face, and quickly recovered by saying exactly what I felt, “It’s so very important that we spend time together. I don’t care how much time I spend, or how difficult it is trying to become lucid with you.” Her expression changed to happiness and she said, “Yes!” and I held her in my arms, as we danced in circles, until I woke.

I entered the next dream in a fully lucid state from ‘the void’. I appeared in my kitchen, and there was pale, sickly looking, young boy sitting at my kitchen table (maybe 7 years). I walked over to him and asked his name, and he said, “I don’t know.”, so I said, “You don’t know your name?” He looked down and said, “Yes, I don’t know my name.” I remembered seeing him in an earlier dream, and I told him about this, but he didn’t understand what I was talking about. Then a girl in her late teens walked into my kitchen, and she looked equally as sick. I told her I also saw her in an earlier dream with this young fellow. She asked who I was, so I introduced myself and I told them they were inside my house. Then I told them that they are both welcome here anytime at all, and they both replied, “Thanks!” The lucid dream ended.

I was walking down a highway and I became spontaneously lucid for no reason at all. Off in the distant I could see cop car lights flashing, so I flew up into the air (horizontal position) to go and investigate. As I approached the cop car, I realized it was driving away from me, so I sped up to get a closer look. I came in right over the flashing lights, and then I flew in vertical position about 10 feet in front of his windshield. I then spun around to face him, as I was flying in reverse down the highway. It was real rush! The cop just ignored me (another crazy lucid dreamer), so I spun around and followed the highway for a very long time, and then I came upon a tunnel that passed under the ocean. At this point I made a hard left and flew along the seashore until I found an interesting looking public pool. I landed beside the main pool and walked around to the other side by a kiddie pool. I remembered dreamers at Dreamviews talking about water bending so I decided to give it a try. I focussed on lifting the water upwards to form a water arm, but instead the water violently rumbled and made undulations. I felt like I was making a scene, so I decided to go for swim in the main pool. Just before I jumped in, the lifeguard said, “That guy’s going swimming with all his clothes on!” I didn’t care, these are my dream clothes! I sat on the bottom of the pool and breathed the water (felt like air), and then the dream suddenly came to an abrupt end. After this I had a cool non-lucid dream about petting kittens in a cow pasture with my son.
