lucid

I was not even planning to get into the LD, but I became conscious in a dream. I immediately applied deepening, but since I didn't have a plan, I had to act according to the circumstances. I decided to have sex and i did. Thou, I knew, that every Lucid Dream, in which i have sex, ends very quickly (understandable). But this was a huge exception. After about 3 mins or so of having sex, I started talking with different characters of my subcounscious. I enjoyed each conversation, while drifting to sleep. My normal dream starts here. It was crazy. I've dreamed that my sex partner, from the previous LD, accused me of raping her and all LD characters I had talked with, knew what we had talked about in real life. It was terrible. I felt like every secret of mine is being leaked from the dream world into the real world. That huge fear and disappointment drifted me into another LD of that night. I've tried everything that I had in my mind, I even got bored so what I did was: flying as fast as possible into the atmosphere and falling back to the Earth slowly slowly. It was very long Lucid Dream. I got drifted back into sleep again. Into the same creepy dream. It was as scary as it could possibly be and I got another LD (3rd), which ended with me waking up finally.

I can honestly say, that this night was one of the longest nights i have ever had. It was as awesome as it was terrible.

My alarm clock on my phone broke (don't ask how that happened), so lately I've been trying to wake up after 6 hours of sleep without any kind of device to help me. And I succeeded today. I woke up, went to the bathroom and went back to sleep. The thought of counscious awakening was going through my head as I drifted into the dream. I managed to exit that dream, so I woke up without moving. And then I had to face my biggest enemy - loud noises (my family was up very early preparing to go to work and they were shouting for no good reason). I decided not to let this chance slip away and performed techniques. it worked immediately. I ended up in the Lucid Dream.

After succesfully entering Lucid Dream I immediately performed deepening. My plan was to try shapeshifting and turn into a wolf. I tried imagining myself becoming one and started running on my hands and legs like a dog, but I failed, so I tried again. After few unsuccessful tries, I started hearing loud noises and thought that it was my parents, so I had to do something. I performed deepening, but still... I lost control and woke up. i tried to re-enter but I failed.

I was on my one and a half weak dry spell and I was not trying to get into the Lucid Dream. But I broke my dry spell, by becoming counscious within a dream. Once I understood that I am in the LD, I immediately tryed to do deepening, but I failed and got thrown back into my body. Refusing to surrender, I somehow managed to reenter my dream. I performed deepening and carried on my plan.

My plan was to talk with my subcounscious and ask for my talent and quick way to earn money. After calling my dream character to talk with me, I started conversation. It was very strange conversation, because she kept asking non related things which I can't remember. After, finally, asking question I wanted to ask, she answered: "Eating". She said it and nothing more after that. That's when my phase ended, after about 10 minutes of being in it.

Dream Character that appeared to talk with me:

Oh, she is beautiful.

Well... let my mind run me on this LD, attempted a WILD before the LD, pretty sure it was a DILD.

I'm in a sunny medow, there is moped next to me, small, red and really slow.
I jump on the moped and begin to ride up the hill, there is a series of train tracks ahead of me, although I do not realise I'm dreaming yet my usual narative is going on.
"Train coming down the ..... track"
I quickly go past that one, approaching the next one I begin to realise the narative,
"Something's not right here, I'm dreaming aren't I..."
I attempt the finger through palm RC but it wont work, I really tried hard on that one.
I see a mushroom on the floor, I want to give myself superpowers so I begin to eat it. It's disgusting.
Everything goes purple, my vision fades in very slowly, but it's still very blury.
I'm in my bedroom, I know somethings wrong, I hear a voice in my head when I look towards the door.
"There's no way to escape, if you try you will die"
Me logically thinking, I go to the door and attempt to escape...
Turning right to go into my parents bedroom a force pulls me back, I struggle at first but I give up after a short time.
I allow myself to float down the stairs into an area in my house that I don't realise, there are strange objects there but I wake up before being able to observe further.

Synopsis: I witness a strange tribal rite of passage that left a child unloved by her parents. Lucid, I jump into a golden swamp with swimming deer and trash.

Tribal Rites and Swamp Swimming Deers
Inside a hotel room, me and a reporter get a first look at an ancient tribal rite of passage from Africa. A young female teenager, naked, sits supported on top of a boys back. She slowly dances using only her upper torso while the boy crawls around with his head tucked into his chest. It was a wierd visual effect, making it look like she had six legs. The dim lights helped with the eerieness.

The dance is over and now the rest of the female teenagers line up to have their bodies inspected by an elder in the tribe. To do so, they strip off their bathing suits. I was talking to the reporter and we both agreed that technically none of the girls were afraid to be naked because this was a nudist tribe, they were only wearing bathing suits because we were in a hotel.

A mother is so proud of her daughter, its like the kids just graduated. Just when I thought the ritual was over I noticed two girls quickly squat down on command, in front of the elder. They were completed folded over, with their foreheads to their knees and their hands tucked in.

But somethings wrong, their backs are completely flat, and so is the back of their heads. Its like something squashed them. They were squished into table shaped people. What could do this? Then I realized their backs were being used as the ground for the ritual, and after so many years, their backs flattened. The elder rearranges them like boxes and yells at one of the girls to stand up.

The reporter was recording the entire event.

The box-girl wanted to perform the rite of passage herself. But before she can even try she's insulted by her own parents for being too fat and ugly. She frowns and chokes back her tears. At this point the reporter says 'Im sorry, I have to stop, her expression is too sour" and walks out the room. The parents insult the girls hideousness some more, then summons everyone to dinner.

I was horrified and pissed off! Magically at this point the family went from black to white.

The family was eating dinner in a private restuarant they rented out. I remember the father screaming at the hungry reporter "Family only!" I had something to say to that man that could make him choke.

"What are you standing there for, youre family too, come on eat J"

I didn't say anything and just left myself. I waited for what felt like hours for the family to finish their over priced meal. I snuck in, into the hotel room of the sleeping girls. I found the "ugly" girl, her hair was curly like mine but softer and lighter in color (like mom). She had a frown even while dreaming. I whispered softly to her

"Not matter what your parents say or think, you will grow up to be the most beautiful"

Then her frown changed into a smile and she continued to dream sweetly. I felt like my dream mission was done, which made me realize - hey Im dreaming.

Excited to be lucid I run around looking for something to do. A whole laundry lists of dream tasks pops into mind. Maybe I should do that, maybe this. I found a library. Maybe that can offer me intriguing information about the subconscious, nah that sounds like it'll take forever. So I continue running. Then I find an air hockey table. But playing made my dream abstract. Afraid it'll make my dream unstable, I stopped playing and looked for something more useful.

Thats when I finally find a door out of the hotel.

Outside was a swampy marshland, with golden grass growing in the water, and golden water shimmering with the morning sun.

"THAT!" I was so excited I couldn't even finish my sentance, but I found what my lucid dream was about.

I noticed deer were swimming in the swamp, with only their heads above the water. So its deeper than it looks. I dive on in! The water feels so real it makes me think for a moment that maybe ive lost my mind and im really awake. Its cold. Its slimy. It smells like a swamp smells, and theres a dead frog floating next to me.

Im grossed out but I remind myself its just a dream and im not going to get any diseases. I swim with the swamp deer for a few minutes. The waves grow and grow. The height of the waves covered my view, hiding the human boats on the other side creating them. We were almost run over. Its so hard to swim fast! Giant boxes and random items float our way atop the waves. It felt like the humans were trying to corner the deer. It was working. Scared, the deer swim away to the other end of the swamp where the water was shallow. Theres a fence and more boxes preventing them from fleeing.

I look at the humans on their boats and im pretty mad at them for ruining my swamp. Then I wake up.

DJ Log: February 2, 2012 – 11:15PM (USA Eastern)
• NON-DREAM • NOTES • DREAM • LUCID •

I am clicking around the 'net and almost fall asleep in my chair. I decide that I should hop in bed and take a quick nap. The time is ~9:45pm. I lay down and fall asleep very quickly.

I awaken from a minimalistic dream, standing in darkness. I realize that I had just awakened, but I must still have my eyes closed because I cannot see anything at all. Knowing this, I decide to make an attempt at DEILD. I concentrate on keeping my eyes closed and then I try to remember where I was just a moment ago. I remember that I was laying in my bed, trying to remember what the dream was about. I cannot recall even the smallest detail, other than I was just dreaming.

Suddenly, I make the realization that I am not laying in my bed, but I am standing. Before I can gather myself together and stabilize, I wake up.

I try hard to immediately settle down, but my eyes are wide open and I am too alert and excited to re-enter the dream state, much less return to sleep right away.

I woke up this morning, feeling groggy and my eyes didn't want to open. I brought my fingers up to my nose and pinched my nostrils shut, then took a deep breath. I felt the air fill my lungs. I was instantly aware. Alright! FalseAwakening! I jumped out of bed with eagerness and opened the curtains, it was dark out. I rubbed my hands together and examined the room. "Well, time to visit my dream harem" I thought to myself. I walked down the hall and out the front door. Instinctively blocking the cat from bolting out of the house.

I stepped out on the front porch and looked around. It was quiet, a few leaves rolled across the ground with the help of the wind. I looked into the sky. To the east it was dark and the stars shimmered. To the west, it was bright and blue, with big white fluffly clouds that slowly moved across the clear blue sky. "No time to waste" I thought to myself. I strolled across the street where my dream harem was so conveniently located.

I opened the door, and walked in. I looked around. Nothing... No one to be seen. I checked the backrooms. They were all empty. I walked back through the house toward the front door. No point in sticking around here. I opened the front door to walk out. What is this?

I stepped out of the front door into a mall. Now I know I'm dreaming... I hate the mall. "Really!?!?" I said. I looked over the glass barrier. I was looking down at the food court. It was full of people sitting around and eating. Maybe I'll go get something to eat, I'm feeling hungry. I changed my mind, I knew what I could do. I glanced around at the store fronts. Clothing... Shoes... Pets... Hmmm, this looks intresting...

I walk into the store. The smell of burning incense filled the air. Blacklight posters covered the walls. The shelves are full of miscellaneous items. I walk by the register with a DC staring at me. I gave him the finger and then walked down the aisle. Mugs... Computers... Hand sanitizer... Here we are, fireworks. I look over the selection, I picked up some blackcats. "Lady fingers there has to be something better than this" I thought. I looked back down at the shelf then smiled. I dropped the blackcats and picked up something that should have been illegal even in my own mind. A long string of firecrackers, each cracker seemed to be about the size of a stick of dynamite. This will do...

I walked back towards the front of the store, knocking a few things off the shelves on my way. I stopped at the register, and grabbed a lighter from the display. I gave the DC clerk the finger once more. I strolled back to the mezzanine and looked over the side. Still full of people mindlessly chattering and eating. I went to light the Dynacrackers, the fuse was already lit. "Hmmm, that's not safe". I smiled, and then threw them over the side to the center of the food court. I looked down and waited.

They started going off, there was no sound, but the sight was spectacular. DCs were being blown across the food court. French Fries, hamburgers, and pizza flying along side the DCs. Broken chairs and tables now littered the food court. The floors were charred with large gray and black burn marks. I could smell gun powder in the air. Chaos and destruction, my job here was done. All this mayhem really stimulated my appetite. I decided to go down, and see if there was any food left. I woke up on my way to the escalator.

So, I've just taken up ToTY, but since I joined late, I had to move faster than ever. That's why I love WILD, which will allow me to LD more than 1 time a day...
...now, let's begin with the dream.
As I enter the dream, even if I WILDed, I didn't realise it was a dream. I was just floating around in a void... until the dream started to form around me, causing lucidity. While I was gazing at the colors and shapes, there it is. My dream, formed.
The shapes around me seem futuristic, and my immediate thought is just to to fly. As I was looking around, I see a nuclear power plant, which makes me remember ToTY...
That means one thing. PORTAL TIME! While in the portal, I can see the dream reforming, and finally, I reach my destination. The nuclear test zone. I immediately thought to ask them to drop the bomb so I could get under it, but they've got ahead of me. The nuclear device was falling, and I couldn't be happier about it...
The next second, the atomic bomb hit me.. I felt a slight tingle, then a force, a kind of air pressure, pushing me down.. I was able to stand up, but hardly. Fortunately, in 5 seconds it stopped, and everywhere was just white. After 10 second, some gray entered the white, extending, expanding...
The gray surrounded me, then floated away, making me realize it was just smoke!
All of the DCs there looked amazed at me as I was walking to them, but while I was waiting to be greeted as a hero, they started to shoot me... which resulted in some old, good, fireballs kicking their asses... after some fighting, my dream started to blur a little, and they actually throwed another bomb on top of me, confusing me even more... I began to hear a faint BEEEP which got louder and louder until I woke up, because of my alarm... Sadly, this wasn't a WILD, but at least I did one of the ToTY taks...
I'll try in my next posts the Titanic one, so take care!

I have a sit down with my old general manager of Red Lobster to try to get back working there again. She hires me. When I show up to work for my first day I ask one of the servers if the menu is still the same from when I worked there. They tell me it pretty much is and hand me a menu. I look it over and find that not much has changed at all. I go through the selection of sides in my head. Baked Potato, Mashed Potato, French Fries, Broccoli, or Rice...still got it! I look at what starting section they put me in, and it's a really shitty one... not near the windows at all - where most of the customers like to be to see the water. That's expected though, they needed to start me out easy. I also notice next to my name on the seating chart the written words "Only 1%". I assumed that that meant I only get 1% of my pay or tips which is extremely disappointing but I am sure it was only for that day because of starting. Suddenly I have to use the restroom so I enter the bathroom. The stalls had no walls and after I was done I was thinking about what an invasion of privacy that was.
I look down at my hand and realize I have a dark grey smudge on it. I go up to the bathroom sink and see that the dark smudging is also all over my face. I try to wash it off but somehow it gets all over my clothes. Shit! I pump some soap hoping that it might help me get rid of it all faster. My clothes get all wet, but after a few minutes of washing, I end up looking somewhat okay. I walk outside and the speak with the hostess - a thin girl with blonde, chin length hair.

"Hey Nick, I sat you but no one knew where you were and we couldn't find you. So I had to move them to someone else's section. Also, some of the servers say you need to give them some tables anyway so they can make money."

I look at her. "I don't care what the other servers say, sit me anyway. And let me know when you do. I'm not going anywhere."

I walk around and notice there are some stairs that are leading to a basement with dancing music blasting inside. Since when did Red Lobster get a night-club? I walk down there and bump into my old roommate Amaliah on the way.

"Hey! I didn't know you were here."

"Oh I come here all the time! I love this place! Let's go in!"

I follow her inside but it's very dark and hard to see. An Asian guy walks up to me that I recognize as one of my coworkers.

"Follow me Nick." he said.

He leads me to another room of the nightclub and then the dream fades. The moment everything turns black I realize I am dreaming

I start spinning and fighting to save the dream now that I was lucid. I keep thinking that I want the dream scene to change into something beautiful. When the dream finally does re-appear I am in a hilly countryside next to a flowing creek. There are miniature horses grazing among yellow flowers. They are about the size of toy dogs. Very cute. I stabilize the dream a bit and admire the clarity. Everything looks and feels so real. Even the water from the creek which I put my legs in feels nice. I see a few baby ducks waddling through the grass. It's very relaxing. I try to pet some of the little horses but they are skittish and run away from me. A few of them jump into the creek and swim to the other side. Then everything disappears and I am back awake in my bed :/

i was standing in a house when i became lucid. this time i took more time than i normally would to stabilize i rubbed my hands together and rubbed my feet on the carpet and i grabbed part of this arch that was right next to me and felt it a little i noticed a box on the floor and i wanted a gun so i could shoot through the wall so i went to open it and it was a smaller box inside a smaller box a bout 6 times so i said the next one is what i want. so i reached in without looking and pulled out an old WW2 rifle and shot this door and it deteriorated and it was dark inside the door. i went in and it was a maze but the walls were made if wooden poles so i could see through them. i was walking through the maze and there were statues of people made of stone and i started asking the statues if they were my dream guide and a couple said no. i came up to this one that look like more of a real person, it was this huge Italian man about 6' 5" with a loss of hair but what he had was black. i asked him if he was my dream guide and he said yes i couldnt believe i had found him so i said "really?" and he responded sarcastically "no im not your dream guide". it was kind of funny and at that point i knew it was him. we hung out for a bit and talked about personally things and then i went to the bathroom cause i had to go real bad which when i woke up i really did.

After getting into The Lucid Dream I've found myself in the centre of my room. I immediately performed some deepening and maintaining and started acting as I had planned, in case of an unplanned Lucid experience. I teleported into a flying Plane, with my parachute already on my back. After some maintaining I jumped out and kept falling through the clouds for about 2 minutes. It felt as amazing as always and even better. The Sun was touching my skin, clouds got me a little bit wet, but someting was missing. I needed some music and I decided to go for it. Go for the thing I've always wanted to do in my "World". I concentrated on the specific song and I started hearing it in my head. Soon it spread everywhere. I was free falling and enjoying the music I like. Amazing, amazing, amazing. The ground was getting closer, so I had to continue with my plan. I took out snowboard from my parachute bag and put it on. After some maintaining, I closed my eyes and imagined that as I fall through the next pack of Clouds, I will translocate to the snowy mountain area. With the music still on, I managed to land safely on the ground and round my snowboard down the mountain. All of the excitement woke me up completely.

I was in my bed unable to move, and I started to get really frustrated. Eventually, I began realizing I was in sleep paralysis (although my thinking was still very fuzzy). As I calmed my self down, my body began sliding off the bed- I made sure that I ended up on my feet though. I walked toward my mirror and caught a faint reflection of myself without a shirt (accurate). I decided to jump through the 2nd story window although part of me wasn't sure if it was real life, so I was a little bit hesitant. As I jumped through and began flying, I got this amazing feeling- this sense of freedom that I was actually dreaming. I remembered that I needed to tell ST that I was dreaming so I started flying toward where I thought she lived (in my head at the time, she lived a couple blocks away). As I came over the elementary school, my brain interpreted it as being the middle school and I quickly got distracted. I decided I was going to mess with the kids and take whatever I wanted out of the cafeteria. I started eating hamburgers for some reason, and joking around with the lady working behind the counter. I started using the word "dream" in different contexts, but it started to really piss her off (like in inception). The dream started to lose clarity, so I knew I should just leave her alone. I started heading down the walkway, then saw a girl I recognized from one of my classes. I wanted to see what she would say if I started talking to her, but the dream became fuzzier, and I woke up.

I'm on krasnaya ploshid standing behind a crowd of people rioting. Police walk disperse the riot. One asks me where I'm from and where my parents are from. "Moscow. Im trying to find a cab to get home". He walks me to a street. Someone calls my name. I turn around and see this girl from Richmond that was also from Seattle. We talk for a. Few minutes and she gets in her little car.

The scene changes a bit and the car is now a couch. Instead of Seattle girl it's Katie and dina is there to. We all have a really good time on the couch talking and being excited. Dina and i roll around Having fun .Katie has goggles with lenses. She eventually gets on her bike and rides away home
I decide it's time for us to go home to. I put Dina on a bike and we ride home.

I'm in a high rise apartment with glass windows all around. I look outside and see a plane dragging another plane through the air on a string. 2 more of the planes. Someone else is in the house. I do a RC. Now I'm alone in the apartment. Everything is fading. I try to stop thinking that I'm dreaming and I rub my hands together. It seems to work. I rub the couch and when I look around again I'm fully in. I decide for a fireball session. I wave my arms around with passion and closed eyes. My arms get warm but nothing happens. There is a coffe table in the middle of the room and I make it disappear. So I have extra space. I try again this time trying to feel the energy in my body before shooting it through my arms. Again only my arms get warm. I walk over so I'm standing facing the hallway and can see down it into anothe room. I try the fireball again and as I'm formulating it a black hole starts to appear in the room down the hall. Right in the wall as if the wall is starting to melt into blackness from a single point. I think that if this wasn't a dream that woul look scary but it's kinda funny all these things that can happen in dreams. The fireball obviously fails that time. I decide To try and shoot a bow but when I try to imagine one on the couch next to me it doesnt work so instead I levitate. I fly to my right. Then I land. I decide it's time for a little interaction. I go out into the stairway and 3 girls and their father are coming up the stairs. I think about killing the father. But then I consider the pocibility that this is not a dream ...I ask him to allow his daughters to help me with a big assignment that I might fail if they don't. He says fine but they have to do something first. They all walk in to the apartment but their little group goes off to the left and I go to the right. I walk in and the people who live here with me (can't remember who anymore) are back sitting on the couch. We have a brief convo and someone knocks o the door... I wake up

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! Had a lucid last night and a very long intricate dream. I could only recall the lucid though and it was very weird.

22.00: Sleep

05.30: Cheese! MILD
I'm outside in the sun. Someone lets go of two vampire/zombie creatures and they circle around me. "I'm dreaming!" I say out loud and hold out my hands toward them, trying to bring forth fire. I only manage to create some kind of bright light but that's enough to keep them at bay. Suddenly they don't want to eat me anymore, but we're going to play some kind of game. "Try to choke me if you can!" one of them says to me. I grab his collar and hold him down against a table. I hold my other hand behind my back, trying to summon a big chunk of cheddar. "Come on! What are you doing?" he asks me. "Relax, it's not that easy" I say and visualize the cheese in my hand. I start pretending it's there and all of a sudden I'm holding it in my hand. I shove it into his mouth and he starts to choke.



I lose lucidity but keep on shoving cheese in. The guy is choking but appears to be able to breathe anyways. "I can do this for an entire hour" he mumbles. I pinch his nose and it suddenly becomes more difficult for him, but it won't kill him.

05.30: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 7½ hours

Supplements: None

That's it!

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

It was night-time and I was running away from something, no one in particular, just life in general maybe. I felt like I could go on running forever, even when I began to pick up speed. It felt amazing. I was only a few blocks from my house by the new fancy houses when I heard a really loud noise coming from a tv in one of those fancy houses. I looked through the window of the house on the right corner by the four way stop, where the street goes to more fancy houses and a dead end. From a distance I could see the flashes of the tv through the window. I wanted to get a closer look, so I peered in the windows from not too far away. I saw the biggest tv I've ever seen, it was from floor to ceiling, and the ceiling was super high up, cathedral style. In this room were many different expensive things, like work out machines, arcade games, etc. Then somehow I found myself inside the house, staring at this boy around my age. He saw me and started freaking out. I didn't know what to do but then I realized I was invisable so that only he could see me. As he ran to get his sister I checked the place out a little and trie to run on the treadmill because I still wanted to keep running. His sister came in and said she didn't see anything, so it was just me and him. I decided that I was going to follow him from now on throughout his life, watch his every move, and help him if necessary. I didn't get to do much before I woke up though. I remember his parents came home and his dad was lecturing him about something while I was puting on some of his clothes.

I think I dreamt this because of a good book(Certain Slant of Light) I read about a ghost following a person around until they died. It was a very interesting book, and it made for a very interesting dream

In another dream, I was by the beach with a friend and we were looking for an area with high waves so we could body surf, or body board.. or something. I didn't feel like walking to the other side of the beach where the huge waves usually are so I decided to test out the water right next to us. I took a step in and watched the waves come in, observing them. But they were bigger than I thought and they took over me and dragged me out and under the water. I flailed my arms and screamed for help as I swallowed the salty sea water and tried to stay above the water.

Then, a lucid from a few nights ago that I don't remember much from because I didn't take the time to record it till now.
I was jumping up and down, trying to stay up in the air and get higher and higher. Then I noticed this guy my age following me. He had black or brown hair and he was really tall, skinny, and cute. I kept trying to jump higher than him, flapping my arms up and down faster and faster and trying to propell myself up. I sort of knew I was asleep from the start, so I casually mentioned to him "We are in a dream." and he agreed. "What should we do now?" I asked. We couldn't come up with anything cool to do so we just kept walking/flying around. I don't know if I was 100% sure I knew I was dreaming because I thought he was really there with me dreaming. Later in the dream we spend more time together and we climbed a tree and he kissed me. Then I woke up :/
