lucid

non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening

(...) I am at the edge of a balcony, slightly aware I'm dreaming and making considerations about lucid dreams. I am not afraid of the height because I know I can fly or hover and will not hit the floor if I fall. But that's not enough. I realize that I need not to be afraid of hitting the floor, because there is no floor. I make an effort to become fully lucid to do an experiment. I let my body lean forward and just let go of all fears and all doubts. My body goes through the dream balcony and I free fall. I only feel the uncomfortable sensation in the stomach, of falling in the void, for about 2 seconds and then its gone. I see the ground closer and closer but I also go through it and then I'm free falling in the darkness. I don't make any effort to stop it, I let go completely.
After a while, the falling sensation stops by itself and I find myself being laid out gently on a grassy patch under a tree at nightime. I feel peace and I feel like meditating. I decide to get up and do a walking meditation. I try to visualize a Buddha against the night sky. I can't. Instead I see a white light that starts from a point and expands into the shape of an angel like figure. From it I hear a "hello". The light shines brighter and I hear again "Hello, [my name]!". I recognize the voice of my guru. I don't just recognize his voice, I feel him! Hard to explain the entirety of what happens in these few moments. I feel overwhelmed. I wake up.

Opening Statements
Hello, everyone! I'm back, and either I just seem to only remember dreams when their lucid, or I just have bad recall skills. Either way, my LD count now throttles up to two, and I can only hope it climbs even higher! Well, enough of this self-proclaimed glory, on to the dream!

Entry
I was running around an empty city, it was a sunny day, and the city was something you'd expect to find from a modern Sonic the Hedgehog game. Buildings closed me off to a specific area, which I was running around in. I was thinking about who-knows-what when suddenly I thought about dreams. Then, out of nowhere, with not even the slightest change of anything, I was Lucid. I was suprised and quite happy (Seeing as how this was only my second, and my last one was almost a month ago.), I started to explore the city some more, looking at my hands, and such other activities. It actually felt pretty cool to just be doing that, but I felt the clarity of the dream slipping. Fearing that I would wake up, I started saying "Stabilize Lucidity!" over and over again. Now before, I was mostly seeing the dream in third person, like some sort of videogame, but after saying that, all I can say is, whoa. EVERYTHING was amazingly detailed, the dream was crystal clear, it was in first person, heck, it would be easy to convince me that it was real life! Anyway, I suddenly noticed a school in front of me, looking like a middleschool and a highscool mixed together. When I went inside, there were a good amount of people inside. There was a band practicing in the entrance area (the band room was right at the entrance area, as were many others, no walls or anything... I wanna meet the guy who designed this school!). I walked around it, giving someone who played the Tenor Saxophone a thumbs-up as I passed him. I talked to one of my friends, but I forgot what was said, and then, suddenly, I was in a black void. well, at the time, I thought I had woke up and hadn't opened my eyes. When I did wake up, I realized that I'd had a False Awakening. The dream ends there.

I've been having non lucids lately where murderous people are after me. I'm never all that scared in them, in fact it feels no different than running from someone I'm playing tag with. I mean, I never truly fear for my life, but I do try to get away.

In this dream, a woman had captured me and was holding me hostage in my own house. She was explaining how she wanted to kill me and mutilate my body. And she had bloody body parts from other people scattered around. I was back to being a teenager, because one of my boyfriends, Dave, tried to come over. But the lady told him I wasn't home or something. So as he started walking home, I thought "I need to get out of here. I'm going to get my bike when she's not looking, and ride away!" Oh and side note, I think she already killed my parents. Anyway, she turned and left the room for a moment, so I easily slipped into the garage, opened the door, and started walking my bike into the street. I had a hard time getting my bike going there for a minute, and I was getting that excited/scared feeling you get when you're about to be tagged "it", but I finally got the bike going. I saw Dave half way down the block, and I yelled "Dave!" He stopped walking and turned around, and I hopped off my bike and ran to embrace him. His hair was all wild and red and curly like I remember it being when he was 19. We kissed, and then I broke the kiss and saw that 3 crazed murderous people were right behind him. I screamed!! Then either I woke up briefly or just went into blackness.

The dream restarted, where I was at the police station with Dave and his family. The cops got the bad guys, and Dave's family had graciously decided to let me live with them. Not adoption exactly, just more like becoming my legal guardians. I remember being so excited that I would get to live in the same house as my boyfriend I was given some paperwork to sign, and it was really hard to do! The pen wasn't working well, and I was having a hard time just writing. I became lucid once I realized that I only have this kind of trouble writing when I'm in a dream. But I was too wrapped up in the story, and Dave, to do anything with it. I just went over and hugged his mom, then proceeded to make out with Dave before waking up.

i was in a car with my family and i thought something wast right so i plugged my nose and i could breath so i yelled out im dreaming and ive always wanted to do that hand through the finger thing so i tried too push my finger through my hand and it worked but it felt wierd so i stopped and got out of the car and walked in a town where my cousin shawn was there and i knew i could comunicate with my subconsious so i said can i lucid dream tomorrow and shawn and all the people stopped and looked at me in confusment but i heard my subconsious say yes then i woke up.

also for some reason i have been lucid dreaming for the past three days and i havent even been trying plz can someone tell me why the past three days iv been have ing lucid dreams

Wow. Incredible. After months of having no fully lucid dreams, I finally had one! it started like this. i opened my eyes in my dream, i was in bed. so anyways my bed was rotating once again... in real life i have a fan next to my bed. in the dream, it was nowhere to be found but i could still feel the air blowing on me. i was in a dark room. but i soon realized it was not my bedroom. and i was 100% aware i was dreaming. but theres a bit of a problem. i could barely move. Does anyone know why this is...?! I was completely lucid in the dream, but I was like "Frozen" I guess... I could move my arms maybe about a few inches across the bed, but that's about it.... I even found it difficult to open my mouth, and especially difficult to talk. The room was kinda big. and the ceiling was pretty high. i remember seeing light coming in from the windows. not much though. everything was still pitch black. I had pretty much no control in this dream, which actually makes me sad considering that this is the first one i had in a while. Another weird thing... as soon as i entered the dream (which, by the way, happened twice), i could hear my moms voice saying random words. quite loudly too. But why was i so weak in the dream...?! Seriously, I need some help here.

I was with Scooter, and she was touching me inappropriately, and I was doing the same, and it was weird because my sister was maybe someone in the area, and there was an understanding that she didn't approve of us having any kind of physical relation.

Later, there was another dream where I was driving a car, and was from the future. My Mom was there, but she had no idea what the car was, she was basically my Mom from the past. We were in the same house that we currently live in, though. I was driving around with her in the car, and was explaining to her "know how you have horses and carriages and shit? This machine is what we have in the future?" She seemed to vaguely understand, but she wasn't awestruck. She was just pissed off about something, some fight that we had gotten into earlier. There were roads, which was strange for a time without cars. There was also a driveway at her house, which was strange for a time without cars. Before I started driving, I also asked her for a key to her car, which also was strange for a time without cars.

Trapped in some area, by a lake. A lady there had had a younger child, maybe 9 or 8, and a baby. They were there because some government research was being done concerning the lake, I'm not sure what it was. But everyone was living in tents said up by the lake. I got the feeling that the lady that had lost her kids was a kind of lead researcher on the project. I developed a relationship with her older daughter. She had black hair, a little taller than me. We became fast friends. Near the end, we were resting together in her tent, while her brother was there playing videogames. Her Mom came back and walked into the tent while we were together. I asked her if this was ok, she said "it's fine." Her brother looked freaked out after she left and told me to run. He said that his Mom was drunk, and would chop me into pieces. I walked outside, and the Mom was there with a machete. We started to fight, and the fight teleported to a boat, I believe. She had this ability to make me see insane and horrifying things, much like the Scarecrow from Batman. I was able to turn it against her, though, and at one point got the machete from her and chopped off her hand. I woke up during the last parts of this fight. I don't remember much about life at the camp beside the lake. just that I was very glad that girl was there. I was very, very happy when I was with her, and she was no one I knew in real life.

At this point, I was woken up by Sleep Cycle. It woke me up during the last dream, and it worked really well. I sat up, voice recorded my dreams, then laid back down. My intent was to WILD, but Mike had woken up and was showering and people were awake and right outside my window, and I quickly got frustrated. So I decided to just role the dice and do a WBTB, telling myself that I would have a lucid when I fell asleep.

So I have a dream. I'm part of some resistance group fighting against an empire of sorts. The color yellow is associated with the resistance, the color purple with the empire. We were slowing pushing the imperials back through a series of room and cave-like chambers, using blasters. At one point we found a desk, that we decided needed to be taken apart because it had been stolen from the imperials. Anyway, we keep pushing up to this area that is a walkway that is open on one side, then someone opens a fridge while we are there? And that makes them realize we are hiding there, and they surround us. To denote that we weren't going to fight them, everyone put down their weapons and... grabbed a frozen burrito from the freezer. I wasn't about to do this. But Robert Downey Jr. was with us, and he finally decided that he would do it, but that he would choose the flavor burrito that no one had gone for yet, so I did the same. The imperials then expected everyone to eat the burritos while they were still frozen, as part of penance or something. Anyway, either it all died down and/or we escaped, don't remember which. I ran into Kaia, who I ended up following through some deep woods to some place. I kept following her, and we kept going around this island, which has this giant statue of it that was raised by the imperials, maybe? Eventually, as we were walking around, we moved out of the jungle into a populated city area that was almost a part of Birmingham, but not quite recognizable enough to be called a construct caused by memories of the place, while in this area, the big statue was torn down. It seemed to have an "oh-no" look on its face as it was being destroyed.

Later, I'm in my parents' house. I'm fighting some long line of creatures that is trying to get to my bedroom in the house, which is like my base, and I have to destroy them as they come by. I become lucid during this, I don't remember why. I for some reason didn't record this dream right after I woke up when it happened, and decided to try another dream. This was very foolish of me. Anyway, I'm lucid, and I realize that some had gotten to my room where the base was. The leader of my group of monsters is a plus serpent head thing. So I grab it and charge into my room, getting ready to bash them. As I'm charging, I remember thinking that I can't believe how absolutely stable the dream is staying, as I'm dashing around in this ridiculous situation, attacking these small monsters. I'm able to look around at every detail of my surrounding without losing any stability. I get to my room and try to stop them, but it's too late and they win. That's fine, nothing bad happens. I walk out of my room and towards the front of the house. I decide I want to try to teleport. I close my eyes and start to do so, and right before I go to teleport I remember that I foolishly haven't set a destination, so I just think the words "grammy's house," but don't actually form any image of it at all in my head. I realize what has happened and open my eyes. The whole dream world kind of does a lightning fast blip around me, like a tv station where you are getting shitty reception from an antennae and the image cracks for a second, and I feel the entire reality of the dream not exist at all for just the briefest fragment of a second, then everything comes back and I'm in the same place in my house, but everything is a little more blurry and less stable. The teleport was a whiff. I gather myself and realize I'm starting to lose stability. In an act of desperation I set a location in my mind and try to teleport there. I don't remember where it was, but I tried to make it as specific as possible. That being said, I only spent like two seconds forming it in my mind, and I was already losing stability rapidly, so this one also whiffed and I went through the same sensation of reality blinking out again. I tried this twice in rapid succession, each attempt failing, each failed attempt making me lose a little stability. I wasn't able to teleport, though, and in the end I was in den, not very stable. I realized I had fucked up, and tried to look around and stabilized. I was willing my mind to fill in sensory data from everything around me, to sharpen everything, and I drastically slowed the process of destabilization, but I was too far gone to stop it, and I woke up.

Im with A and im looking through a house of memories I tell my self that.

I tell my self that memories are unstable and that they change everytime you look at them
the front of the house keeps changing and everytime I open this door this clothing sign keeps changing the words on the sign

i keep opening the door and it says SUP then I realize IM DREAMING I look down too become aware of what im wearing

Im wearing white button up shirt and white cargo shorts I lift up my shirt and my skin is way lighter than it normaly is

I put my shirt down and realize there a blue shirt under the white one with a yellow 2 on it with rhombus around it
I pull the white shirt around the blue one then pull it down and look back at the blue shirt and the rhombus with the 2 in it had moved down the shirt on the left corner

I need to stabilizes so I study the carpet on the ground I crouch down and see that the carpet is white and stringy there are other colors mixed in but mostly purple it looks like realy amazing matrial I rub the carpet too but dont remember how it feels but it looks silky I spin and I can balance on my foot easly but I cant spin faster for some reason I try to bring my arms closer to me to spin faster but I cant for some reason a force stops me then I spin agian and its like my body spins but my head stays still its weird

I start to bend over boxes so I stop spining I look at my watch and it like the clock face got turned upside down the reflection on the glass on my watch is just the same watch upside down wierd I start to think of a power to use then I wake up

I'm copying this from my Workbook. I'm trying to get back in the habit of writing things down as I get ready for Matte's competition.

So last night I had three very long dreams. All of them had something to do with the forum or the forum members and lucid dreaming.

I recall one involving me sending a forum member into a moving vehicle in front of me to induce lucid dreaming in the truck (think it was a truck) and suddenly the vehicle exploded, bodies flying every which way. It was weird because the bodies seem to fly up and then fall rather realistically and the whole thing reminded me of a patchwork of elements I've seen on various documentaries and news reports.

It was the act of trying to induce lucid dreaming that caused the truck to explode. Not sure what what means.

When I woke each time I could recall being in a lengthy dream and some of the events that happened. The visuals are fairly easy to recall but examining them in hindsight produces only vague impressions. It's a weird mix of recall and lack-of-recall.

Think I need more sleep. I haven't been getting enough rest this week and when I lie down I see lines of text scrolling past my eyes, just like chat.


As for the most vivid object...it was small, round, perhaps two inches across. I believe it was a Happy-Meal toy, the bottom of which had a space slightly smaller than the diameter of the circular base in which I was placing another object. There were three cutouts on one side and I was able to fit a small object (a disc or coin, perhaps a watch face of some sort) into the base with the buttons (?) lined up with the three cutouts. I knew they didn't belong together but it felt like they were made for each other. I examined it for a while. The light was bright and reflecting off the object, shining occasionally into my eye. The toy was a lime-green plastic along the base and the fitting object was yellow.

I seem to have a lot of moments like that. Often they become a trigger for lucidity or I'm already lucid by the time I'm examining the object or scene. I think this stems from my general nature of being a hyper-aware person.

I should write all this in my dream journal but I feel like relaxing for a bit before sleep.

Tonight will be the third night in a row in which I haven't had enough sleep. Tomorrow will likely be the fourth. [sigh]

This is my first dream journal entry!
Will keep this Dream journal updated on a regular basis.


So, it all starts of into this castle. I was reading a book, and suddenly i got teleported into the story of that book. I didn't realise this while i was in my dream, and i can't really remember how the story went in the book. I just know it had a 'scary' side to it. Then suddenly i had a false awakening. I was about to do a reality check, but something grabbed me and was tossing me around the room. I realised that this already happend in a previous dream, so i knew i was dreaming! I was telling myself that i shouldn't panic. Sadly it was really dark in my room, so i didn't see what was happening around me. I decided to do a kamehameha wave! Who knows how i got that idea in my head. So i started saying "KAAAAA-MEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAAAAA-MEEEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA", and it failed. Needless to say i was embarrassed, but the nice "whatever it was" letted me go anyway (Maybe i got some bonuspoint for trying!).

Then i wanted to turn on the lights. This didn't work sadly, but suddenly i could atleast see a little bit. So that was good enough for me, and then i left my room. Then i wanted to go outside. So i decided i was gonna walk through the door, but while i was going through that door a girl was just in the middle of it and stopped me. At that point i was thinking about sex, who wouldn't with a girl like that! So i did my thing, won't go into details . Then i woke up for real. DAMN U DREAM SEX!!!!!!! Overall, pretty happy. Didn't do as mutch as i hoped for though. I really wanted to meet my dream guide!

(All my dream entries will be short. Just so you guys know.)


This is how she 'looked' like: (But just with a red dress)

I don't remember much of my dreams from last night. However I was glad to see that I had had six lucid dreams that night. A personal record. I attribute this to reading all the information in this site and trying some new techniques dream spinning and hand rubbing. Before I went to sleep I had an idea. Being Christian I don't pay as much attention to prayer as I want to and I thought if I was to spend one dream just praying, paying attention to god even building a temple. That he would appreciate it and it would make me feel less guilty for not paying attention to him in my daily life. As i could do this every night. I kept this image in my head as I drifted off to sleep.If I want something enough it will happen

I remember waking up in my bed. The first thing I did was a R.C. I did this by making myself levitate. I remember I wanted the sun to come through the window and light up the room it was night and the darkness frightened me. as usual I knew the light switches wouldn't work. So instead I turned away from the window and told myself the sun would come up and brighten my room. this didn't work. I then looked into the mirror for once not afraid of it but rather more curious if I could notice any changes in appearance. My hair was a lighter brown. I then made myself merge through the window into my front yard.



When I arrived there I first rubbed my hands together. I then kept touching everything I could as I walked afraid to loose the dream. I enjoyed the sensations as usual. As soon as I was on the foot path I thought about a faster way to travel. traveling is often too slow. I then called to Duke my dog. He ran up to me happy as usual. I feel by calling someone I know I can trust really helps alot more then calling someone I dont trust or hardly know. I mounted him and told him to run. Duke ran down the streets. I remember being frustrated that it wasnt fast enough though I told him to go faster. didn't work The rest is in patches. I tried to tell myself we would arrive at a temple I made for god.



We instead arrived at Mc donalds. I remember being afraid it would also be a church. it wasn't. Here I met a men who said he was travelling from another dream making me think if it was possible that someone from another dream across the world could merge with yours you would never know. He said he knew some sports guy I was curious if I could recover buried information in our brains in our dreams that I wouldn't usually use. I asked who it was and forgot what he said so didn't get to test the theory. I also compared two fingers of a women's hand to see if I was dreaming. I tried to make a temple for god by dream spinning. first I got different scenarios an island theming aladin and a temple. not being happy I kept spinning going through each scenario till I woke up. I was disapointed then I remembered to do an R.C check levitating again. my new favourite R.C check. I use to just observe things out of the ordinary 3 times and if there where 3 things out of ordinary id know it was a dream. Its harder then it seems. Or even harder once you question if you are dreaming tell yourself it is a dream as if you were awake you wouldnt question if you were dreaming.



I tried to get a temple and got one it was boring. a lady came up asked for a dangerous potion to kill someone. I agreed gave it to her it was red. she fought some ppl and killed them. the ppl she killed was actually herself. I saw a car wreck infront of my house. I was afraid it would follow me. it did. fear made it happen

remembering I was dreaming I ran towards it and faced my fear it turned into an puppy that had died that I had missed and all had forgetten about her. facing fear made the car go away I used all these powers and thought I am a god. seeing god I quickly changed it to I am a sorcceress as I dont beleive anyone should pretend to be god even in there dreams. and was afraid of what god would think. Finally tired of taking time for god I felt aroused.

Spoiler for adult material = rape:

I layed on the ground and imagined myself sinking into it as I thought about a Demon underground ready to rape me. As I sunk I experienced some panic that I was sinking too slowly or not at all and that something bad would happen on the surface. I managed to relax. I often experience fear in my dreams. fear makes bad things happen.relaxing helps make what i want to happen Finally I sunk into the ground and used my thoughts to make a demon grab me to rape me. as I was being moved towards him I told myself what the demon would do to me and angled myself towards his penis. the demon penetrated me and I usually in a rape scenario do nothing and let it take control. this time I found myself arching back and fucking it. The demon was surprised. it came quickly then there was some unusual dream about it being embarrased of the thickness of its sperm and many men had the same problem. one guy even suggested thick sperm meant the woman had no control over the men and was to do anything they said. I had several false awakeings and did several R.C. checks. I wanted to be raped again and imagined a blue giant.

I was handed a giants head. It was a bit gross I had to throw it into the water to make the giant emerge it was blue and stone like. The giant told me in order to have sex i was to attatch butterflies to my head walk out into the open where they will be eaten by catepilliars then eating my face. I saw several examples and was afraid and felt trapped. I tricked the giant by agreeing with him. then fled to a ship dodging the giant in the sea. My goal to reach the southern sea where I would be able to teleport as someone could cast a spell to help me there. I ran into an oil rig and the giant was saddened and cleaned the mess. I teleported to another oil rig. I was able to teleport when I usually can not because I imagined a scenario where someone helped me with magic making it possible

I dreamed I was to take care of some children. I put on black stockings as that would make children easier to control. When I arrived I had to clean this whole yard and put away this mail. I told my dad I did everything else he could clean the bucket. I felt guilty about that. I was proud of my accomplishments. I went to grandmas and had earned a big feast of I think nachos.

I dreamt of an old best friend. who I'm no longer friends with. There was a dress I was to wear for an important event. I was to rest. I woke to my friend who said she was raped by a guy. I was angry as I had been abused before. We tried to confront the guy. The dream got confusing a higher power a women didn't believe her. It turned out my friend had gone to the pub. We were accused of making males rape us. Some guys chased us at one point and I felt like I was making them rape us. I apologised to many women. And at some point someone wanted to pick a dress and I rushed and picked it first choosing it over my original choice. It was green and suited me.

I woke up for real several times during the night but found it easy to go back into a dream. I remember when I was 16 I had a recurring nightmare where I was paralyzed and my heart beat hard against my chest. I learnt to make this experience lead to a lucid dream by falling through the depths into a black void where I would make myself fall faster and faster untill I was in a dream. Quite frightening at first but it soon become enjoyable.

Alright I have a TON of notes for this one, because several important things happened to me in the course of about 10 minutes. For time's sake, and the sake of recollection, I'll go straight into describing the dream.

I was dreaming about being in our backyard, and looking at what damage the drought as caused some of the plants. I noticed that one of my bushes had spontaneously grown tomatoes in the center, though it was not a tomato vine. I poked at one. Then I noticed one of the citrus trees looked dry as usual, and the ground surrounding it also dry. But it was mysteriously missing it's little decorative brick border. Also, it was too close to the fence all of the sudden. I looked at the place it should have been, and there was an entirely different plant (like a basket topiary), in its place with the brick border. I thought, "This isn't right, OH I'm dreaming!!" This next moment is extremely important.: Right after becoming lucid, and for the few seconds before remembering that I want to complete a TOTM, I became very aware of the fact that I had only fallen asleep a minute before. And while the transition was by no means perfectly seamless, as there were a few moments where I couldn't account for the time exactly, and I had blacked out a little. I'll explain in a bit why I know how much time had elapsed, and why this is important. Anyway, moving on. I remembered the advanced task of the month almost immediately, as the thought of completing the basic task flashed through my mind. However, I knew I didn't have much time (you'll see why in a minute), and the fact that I was in the garden was going to make it hard to find a pen and paper. So in a panic, I willed something, anything to write with, to appear. A Bic, black ink pen appeared on the ground. YESSSSS I thought. I grabbed it, and not even bothering to look for paper, I tried to write something on my arm. I was able to scratch my arm a little, which hurt, but the ink wouldn't come out or show up on my arm. I wishfully looked at a table on the back porch, and I saw a pice of ripped manilla paper that Chris usually likes to doodle on. Double YESS! I ran and grabbed it, and quickly scribbled on it, and it worked. So I tried to think of something to write from my waking life, and the first thing that popped into my head was "Last night, I cooked chicken for dinner." I even recollected quite clearly the actual dish, as it was something I had never made before. I wanted the sentence to be simple though, and started to write, "Last night, I.." Then I got distracted by some scribbling that was on the top of the paper already. I don't remember what it said, but when I looked back to the sentence I was writing, it was all gibberish. I scratched it out and tried it again, just under my first attempt. Exact thing happened again haha! So this time, I made myself focus on the task. I mean, we're talking pain in the brain, making myself focus on writing this tiny little sentence without getting distracted. I finally got it all written out, and I remember being ecstatic that I completed both tasks within the first week of the month.

Then Danny's snot rocket ritual (in real life) woke me up momentarily. I fell back to sleep, and again lost a little consciousness, and reappeared in the garden. I became instantly lucid again, because all the plants were jacked up in the same way. And this time Jason (RareCola) was there. This is also important for 2 reasons which I'll get to later. I was so excited to see him and show him the "journal". In this second lucid, it actually had grown from a simple piece of ripped paper, to a big book that looked like something that would be on Harry Potter's bookshelf. I opened it to the first page, and there was my waking life entry! Although, it now said "Lst nghnit, I cked CHKN fr dnnr," though imagine that with some Ns and Rs backwards. I explained to Jason that this happens apparently if you look away, then back again, at my journal. Then I turned some pages and there were drawings that Chris had made of bears, and dogs, and other animals. Same magic. If I looked at a bear, then turned the book around, then looked at the bear again, it changed. It looked all poofy, like it got its tail stuck in an electrical outlet. Same thing for each animal drawing, and I showed each one to Jason, who found it remarkable.

At this point in time I think my lucidity became a bit hazy, but then I got it back, or I woke up briefly then fell back to sleep and got lucid again. Which one I can't recall, but I DO recall being lucid again, and going inside the house, being so proud of my TOTM accomplishments. I decided it was time to celebrate, since I couldn't really think of anything else to do. So I summoned a DC and we got it on. I actually awoke from that final lucid, because my DC and I heard a soft buzzing noise. I told him, "Oh that's just Danny in real life, brushing his teeth with the electric toothbrush." Then I woke to the sound of the electric toothbrush.

Now, how did I know exactly how much time had passed in these lucid dreams, and furthermore, how did I know that I had little time before the dream would end? First, we set our alarm this morning for 6:30am. And Danny ALWAYS gets up first (because his bathroom ritual takes about 10 minutes, whereas mine takes 5 or less). At any rate, it's always the same ritual: 1. Peepee for 2 minutes (I swear he has a horse bladder), 2. Snotrockets in the sink (3 minutes), 3. Wash face and comb hair (3 minutes), and 4. Electric toothbrush (2 minutes). Then the bathroom door opens and it's time for me to get up. So, when I first became lucid, I knew it had to be between 6:30 and 6:40, because after the alarm went off and Danny went into the bathroom, I tried to sleep in for those 10 minutes, and I felt some mild vibrations. When Danny's snotrockets woke me up after the first dream, and I went right into the next lucid dream, I know I had maybe 5 minutes left (hair, face, and toothbrush).

Next, why was RareCola's presence so important? First of all, the advanced task was his idea. And it's particularly noteworthy that he just realized in real life, that I don't actually keep a written dream journal (only online). Also, the night before this lucid sequence, Jason and I were talking about the subtle differences between a DEILD chain, and simply having multiple DILDs. I realized that I was really having the latter, because I couldn't honestly recall a single instance where I truly went from conscious wakeful awareness, to a lucid dream, without skipping a beat. There has always been a few moments of time, and fuzziness, and unconsciousness that I couldn't account for. So when I became lucid in that very first DILD, I couldn't help but think of our conversation, and I made that attempt to bring, into this DILD, the analysis of how I became lucid, and of how long it took (which I knew because of Danny's ritual), and of how I could really concretely admit that there was a moment of loss of awareness between those vibrations, and being in the garden and not lucid, then lucid moments later (holy run on sentence batman!).

Finally, I find it truly remarkable, that a DC and I both heard Danny's electric toothbrush, and I had the true, acceptance of what this was. I was in a dream, and my body was in bed, and my sleeping ears were gradually picking up more and more of the sound of his toothbrush in the bathroom. I felt like I existed simultaneously on two planes, if only for a few seconds.

I managed to stuff a shit ton of activities in just 10 minutes!

This dream kinda ties into the previous one from this dream journal because they occurred on the same night... Anyways...
I was in a dark room full of people who looked like they were students at some sort of martial arts training club or something.
I was the target, however. A lot of them kept approaching me and I had to punch each one just once for them to back off.
Suddenly, I'm in this place with a friend. And the fighters stop coming towards me, so I guess I won. And all the people who were students turn into little kids. And they all come towards my friend and I, with gifts. My friend was getting more gifts than me for some reason. I waited for a bit and a kid came up to me with a box that contained something obviously useless.
As I took it, I remember saying "Thank you, good sir." (lol)
I remember looking at the box... It had a lot of indented red circles on a dark blue background, and the box itself was made of tin, and was Spider-Man themed. o_O I remember reading some words on the box just before I woke up. It said "These Dots Connect-" And that's all I read before I woke up.

Now this one was pretty weird... I was in a dark forest type place, and there was this evil girl. She challenged me to a fight and transformed into like a huge robot or something. But, yet again, I went SEMI-lucid and i summoned a huge spaceship to destroy her. And it worked. I remembered that the lasers from the spaceship I summoned were green. She returned to her normal human form. She was almost as tall as me, pretty skinny, and had blonde hair. I don't remember what happened after that... ._.

Last night I had a bazaar dream, one that I had before a few months back, only this time I was able to take some action against the horrific events (I'm not sure if this falls under "lucid dreaming" or not, so I'm posting my dream here). The dream scares me and I want to know what it means.

It starts off with me driving through a suburban neighborhood, on my way to visit my father for a "family-get-together". It's all viewed in a first person perspective as I park in front of my "father's" house, which looks more like my mother's house (father and mother are divorced, lived with my mother for 4 years or more before getting kicked out and living with my father). A family-get-together might seem innocent enough, but this "get-together" didn't have much family in it. It consisted of my father, and 2-3 other characters that I've never seen before. Aside from "family", my old childhood friend (who lived next door to me when I lived in my mother's house) was there too. Apparently she was "invited" and came along to see me.

The interior of the house looks the same as it does in reality, only the guest bedroom seemed to be some kind of closed off cavern. This cavern was like a ceremonial trial of some kind that consisted of 3 bridges, crossing over what looked like a bottomless pit. These three bridges lead to 3 different loins head statues, and inside each lions head were either (from left to right) 2 vials of green liquid, a book and figurine of some kind of god-creature, and 2 vials of red liquid. It was never explained to me, nor do I know what the purpose of this "trial" is. All I know is there was an old hag who looked almost like a witch who instructed me to take this trial. She wasn't visually related to anyone in my real family, but I seemed to treat he like a family member that I knew, just never seen much of.

Apparently when I arrived, my childhood friend had already taken said trial, and I was told by this witch that I had to take it as well. My "father" in this dream kept to himself and seemed to have this look of disgust toward me, like he wanted nothing to do with me, or just looked at me like just another person he didn't know or care to know. He never explained anything to me and was often seen cooking and cutting up meats like a butcher. So when I was instructed to take this trial I didn't bother asking my father for any help or advice (Normally in the real world when I was faced with a situation that I wasn't sure about I would ask for his advice/approval/help) and went along with it.

The process of the trail was odd:
1.) Choose from either the 1st or 3rd bridges to cross.
2.) Once crossed, choose 1 of the 2 vials
3.) Once a vial was chosen, the 1st and 3rd bridges would fall into the pit. You had a split second to grab onto the narrow walkway on the wall mounted with the lions heads.
4.) From there you must shimmy to the 2nd bridge and write down 10 truths about yourself in the book inside the 2nd lions head.
5.) Once the truths are written, tear out the page and offer it to the god-creature's figurine while lying about all 10 truths (example: "I can not tell a lie" being a truth, you must say something like "I can't help but speak only lies").
6.) If you did this incorrectly, the bridge would fall. If you did it correctly, the page would burn and you'd have to drink the vial you choose.

Depending which vial you choose it was either beneficial or poison. My first time in this dream I picked the 2nd green vial and it turned out to be poison. From there, I was dragged back to the house, and a horrific ritual of some kind was performed on me where I was slaughtered and roasted alive like some kind of pig (equivilant to the traditional cooking of a whole pig at large Cuban and Puerto Rican family-get-together's, my family in reality being of Puerto Rican decent). Knowing this I chose the 1st vial this time and drank it. It wasn't poison, though it made me very sick, and when I came back from the "trail" I remember puking all over the floor and could barely walk, my friend at my side trying to help make me feel better. My father could care less.

Shortly after I recovered, my friend took a turn for the worse and started feeling faint. She was later taken to my old room and was resting in what looked like my mother's bed from the master bedroom. My dad was at her side, looking like he was taking care of her. I asked him if she would be okay, and if there was anything I could do to help. He just shook his head and grumbled words at me like "everything's fine" and "It'll be done soon". I didn't understand any of it, and the more I asked and demanded to know what was going on, the less and less pleased he seemed with me.

I stared exploring the rest of the house for a while and I eventually came across what looked like a slaughterhouse built in the backyard that connected directly to the back door of the house. This is where I witnessed other people getting slaughtered alive in the most disturbing and disgusting ways. I heard their screams and saw them gutted, filleted and lobotomized by my father and 2 other butchers. I was freaking out at the horrific sight and my father caught a glimpse of me. I quickly ran back inside the house and tried to get my friend from the bed, but the witch was already their cutting slivers of flesh and meat from her arms. She was accompanied by another, larger looking butcher and I demanded that they stop and explain themselves. The witch just looked at me with a crooked grin and said "The ritual must be completed!". Just then I was suddenly blind folded from behind, but I quickly fought my way out of being restrained and ran for the front door.

Once I made it outside I was relieved to see that there were people outside. Witnesses in case father should try anything. He was shocked to see them there, and didn't want to do anything while so many people were watching. He just looked at me as I got in my car and asked, "where are you going?" I told him that I was going back to my mother's place and was calling to let her know that I was on my way (I would notify people in reality to let them know where I was or where I was headed, that way in the event that something should happen or if I don't show after a period of time, they'll know something was wrong and start looking for me). When my father heard this, he nodded with a look of anger on his face and said, "That's a nice little car you have, son..." and stormed back into the house. I didn't know what he meant by that, but when I got in the car and looked off to the side of the house, I saw a rather large, black pickup truck with 40 inch wheels and my stomach sank.

At that point I didn't care, I started the car and put it in reverse, but I started noticing something strange. Everything felt slow and slugish, like everything I was doing was happening in slow-motion, but everything around me was continuing at regular speed. It felt like my body's responsiveness was slugish and I came to the conclusion that it was a side-effect of the vial I drank. But I didn't care, I wanted to get away as fast as I could. I started driving through roads, most unfamiliar to me. As I drove I was convinced that this was the right way to go home. Suddenly I received a text message on my phone saying "You can't escape" (I didn't read it with my eyes as I just took a glance and correctly assumed that's what it said). Shortly after reading the message, the road started changing. It started breaking up into sections that looked equivalent to the roads of "candy land" or "the wizard of Oz" and turned every which way. I started freaking out as a new, surreal world started forming around me, and I wasn't sure whether I was hallucinating or not, and when I looked in the rear view mirror I saw the black truck tailing me. I tried accelerating to get away, and for a while I was able to put some distance between us, but I started to black out and woke up from my dream.


I tried looking for answers online to see if there was any meaning to this, but couldn't find anything specific... I'm still looking for answers...

Okay, keep in mind that I am 16. And that lately in order to become aware, in my dreams I would just KNOW that I'm dreaming without a reality check, and sometimes don't even use a reality check. (which I know, is bad.)

So, it started out as me being in school one day. My friend that I kinda avoid hanging out with sometimes asked me to hang out with him, and I kind of avoided it. I rescheduled anyways. Then I went into my classroom that I was supposed to go into. It was my CAD classroom (which is a 3d computer design class). Then my teacher showed us a new seating chart, and I went to sit in my seat. Moments after I got there I appeared in this courtyard at my school that wasn't my actual courtyard.

This is where it starts getting weird...
I was in a dream scene that I had been in previously that night for an entirely different dream. I believe it may have been in a dream of mine last night too.
So i hear people chanting something about dreaming, and then I quietly chant that "I will have a lucid dream tonight" I kept chanting it to myself and I only did a small reality check to ask if I was dreaming. I didn't catch myself one bit.


Later on into that dream, I felt as if I woke up in waking life, and then rolled over in my bed and the scene changed again into a water world that was portrayed as a video game world in my head. I WAS the character in the game though, and I WAS actually scared of the feeling of drowning. At one point, I came into realization that I messed up in my last dream. That I didn't do a reality check. Then I was telling myself I have got to start looking at my hands more and really focusing in on that stuff, no matter what. I didn't do one reality check I believe.
I carried on just thinking that.

And then, I felt as if I kind of woke up. I felt myself roll over in my bed, keeping my eyes closed, and affirming myself that I would become aware. I continually did that. Then I felt some shaking, and I heard another bed shaking inside my house, and I feared something might be happening to my mom, and then I was focusing in on that. I felt my cat lift it's head up and jump off my bed. Then I rolled over, opened my eyes, and was in my room and all the shaking stopped. My door was closed [so a cat couldn't have been in my room].

What was this for me? Was it vibrations and those vibration noises? Because like I said, I felt my cat jump off my bed. Could that have been my dream guide as I was entering into the dream? I didn't feel any sort of sleep paralysis, because and I was able to just roll over twice and open my eyes within those few seconds.
I sort of thought that this sensation was awesome though. I thought it was exhilarating once I woke up. I simply loved it. I thought it was a great dream, even though I only reached layer 0 minor in the layers a lucid dream.
