    Lucid Dreams

    1. Few days ago

      by , 09-11-2011 at 11:45 PM (Tales from the sun chaser.)
      I had a DILD, followed by two or three DEILDs. Never wrote it down....but I'll try to think about what triggered it.

      I was in the utility room washing clothes. There were two washing machines and one dryer. Instead of taking the full load into one machine, I split the loads evenly into two machines. I started smelling smoke, and it looked like the washing machines caught fire. I put them out with something, but whatever I had kept glowing. I walked out of the utility room, and saw this thick brown snake. I immediately RC'd and found out I was dreaming.
      I took flight for a bit
      and and landed. I walked around the corner looking for plan be...but something happened. I think the dream faded.

      I don't remember the second dream, but I know I was lucid in it...doing the same thing......looking for some action. It started fading, so I prepped myself for another deild. But instead I sort of just ended up in the void. I know I wasn't awake because I couldn't feel my body at all...but there wasn't anything going on. Just a swarm of blackness.

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Good morning! Tried a new kind of pill that I got, B-complex. It contains most B-vitamins aswell as some choline. Took some extra B6 so the dosage of that ended up on 200 mg. And during a quick WBTB I downed a G+C pill in hopes of getting lucid. Had some trouble going back to sleep which resulted in me succeeding in a WILD! Although the dream was short and only lasted a few seconds. The rest of my dreams were random.

      23.55: Sleep

      06.00: Gambling
      I'm on a cruiseship with Monica. We're in a room full of jack vegas machines. I choose one and she another. The game on the screen is as usual something really amazing and I get very excited as the wheels apparently end up in the right position and stacks. When the stack reaches the top of the screen, a nice tune is played. I realise I've activated the bonus game and Monica walks over to me.

      A big cat like monster shows up on the screen and I have to beat it. I hit it with my sword and it gets knocked back. I try to hit it as fast as I can as I watch my money count down. The life is counting down slower than the money though and I'm forced to put more money in. I put almost all money I have in the slot, and finally kill the cat. "Claim the loot" a button says. I click it and I get to pick up a few gold coins. Way less than I spent. "Oh well, was cool anyways" I tell Monica who looks incredulous.


      06.00: WBTB 5 min

      06.20: Short WILD
      I lie still in bed and relax. After a while my mind starts to wander but after ten minutes or so, just before I'm going to sleep, I realise I'm on my way into SP. I relax and ignore the very weird sensations I feel. It's the same as before, muscle spasms. It's a bit hard to relax fully when my body starts to twitch more and more violently, I begin to turn around on my stomach and I wonder if Monica can feel any kind of shaking at all. My elbow and knee joints are affected the most. I start to visualize.

      I can see a ladder infront of me. I focus on climbing it. A hatch appears. I lose focus is back in my body. All of a sudden it feels like I've crossed some kind of border, as my real life senses dull a bit. The twitching a bit less intense.

      An image of a cellphone pops up. I grab the phone with my dream hands and push my face towards the white screen, entering a bright white corridor. Cool teleportation! I walk a few steps. I can't recall more than this.

      11.00: Pissed squid
      I'm up on a hill. I'm not sure why, but I feel like digging. I grab a big rock and roll it to the side. I can see something sprawling underneath the leaves. Actually I can see two things. I figure they're lizards as that's the only creature that is that fast. I remove a few leaves and can see something light brown. It looks like a snake and I prod it. Perhaps it's one of those harmless snakes? I stand up and look to the left. The snake is apparently very long. I can see it sticking up on a few places.

      All of a sudden it starts to move. I watch as it slithers away, growing in size. What the hell is this thing? The tail is shaped like a squid head and I back away. Oh shit, there's gotta be water beneath me, and I've just awoken a sleeping squid. I head down the hill and jump into some water. I look back towards the squid. Its head breaks the surface and it starts to take in water. Steam rises from it and a second later it shoots out a jet stream towards me. I swim away.

      I get up on dry land and head towards our old apartment. My dad meets me on the stairs and some excited dog. I can hear kids playing.


      11.00: Bring it!
      I'm with my dad and my sister in Monica's car. Two foreign guys in a car behind us, gets out of it and heads our way. I hit the gas and almost run them over. I laugh out loud. Somehow I don't feel like I'm in any danger. I can see a container up ahead and we all get out of the car. It's the container from work, containing all the tools. I bring out my keys and open it up. Inside I find two crowbars and a rake. I give the crowbars away and keep the rake for myself. I start to swing it around and juggle with it to intimidate the two guys.

      The guys go away and I walk up to an ATM. The machine keeps spitting out receipts and I can see there's another card stuck in it. I grab it and pull it out. The machine starts printing out euros. They're connected though and look fake, but I grab as much as I can and put it in my big book. Several people in line seem pissed, but I don't care.


      11.00: Wake up

      Amount of sleep: 11 hours

      Supplements: B-Complex + 100 mg B6. 1 x Lucid Dreamer at WBTB


      Tasks completed
      NORMAL BASIC ACTIVE BASIC PASSIVE ADVANCED PERSONAL

      Successfully WILD
      That's it! The amount of information my brain received last night was insane. I'm used to having alot go through my mind but it was crazy how much images, dreams and hallucinations I saw. Didn't focus on recalling more than three though.

      Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

    3. 30th Shared Dreaming Attempt - Kaomea

      by , 09-11-2011 at 07:18 PM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Kaomea's Dream
      Notes: I tried to make it there but never did.

      Art Museum
      I'm standing in some art museum, not exactly sure how I got here. As soon as I become lucid and 'wake up' to the environment, I immediately see this guy in front of me. He's wearing a long sleeved jacket or maybe some sort of coat, I think it's white. As soon as I look at him he raises his right arm horizontally and then emits a white smoke/cloud from his elbow? What the f is that ... ? Before I'm able to react I'm knocked out and lose the entire thing.

      Factory
      I'm in a factory and watching as someone builds a water contraption. It's made out of steel and the function of it is meant to harness the power of water. I can't/don't do anything and simply watch. After a while I think about how funny it would be to put fish in there and wreck havok but my thoughts are really cloudy and everything seems decently hazy. Funny though because immediately after I thought it, fish randomly appeared in his machine and he seemed pretty upset by this ... but I don't remember deliberately intending them there...

      To the batcave! ... or beach house
      My head is aching and overall feels like I'm recovering from a really bad hangover. I can't see straight but I can see well enough, albeit it feels like the entire world is spinning faster than normal. I'm on a moped as I regain dream consciousness and speed through a city near the beach. I see traffic lights and speed through the first one, not willing to stop... I can't stop. I time the other lights and catch whatever green lights happen to turn on at the right time. I almost crash horribly as I speed over some metal plate and a rain puddle... I pull myself back up before I actually crash and just nearly miss a couple of police officers standing on the sidewalk. I make it to a beach house...

      Beach house
      Arriving at my destination, I don't know why exactly I'm here. I get the feeling I'm here because the water holds a cleansing property and clears my energy, aura, mind, everything but I still can't think straight. I grab a bag, my bag? and reach for my suit to put on. I get sidetracked into other things instead of getting into the water. I can't think straight and never make it into the water... only into other areas in the building beside the water.

    4. College Castle

      by , 09-11-2011 at 07:09 PM
      Please feel free to comment, I'd like to hear your thoughts and ideas on my dreams
      Dream code:
      Non-Lucid
      Semi-Lucid
      Fully Lucid
      Comments

      I was in some kind of college (But it wasn't the one I go to) and everybody from my old school was there, also K. was in all of my lessons. There was this one group of people who were my friends and I told them I loved her. Then we went outside and the college was actually a castle as well. Then the dream switched to me in my living room, I was watching a documentary on volcanoes.


      The scene then came back to the college/castle and me and my friends were trying to escape, we were running across the battlements to one of the turrets/towers. We got there and this king-like guy walked out and we tried to avoid him but we got found, we kept running along the battlements until we were opposite this house. We were told to jump and hold onto this rope to swing across. I knew I couldn't jump that far, suddenly everything around us was on fire and I had no choice. I tried to jump but slipped and fell back into the burning building, the heat was intense and I thought it was all over but then the people who were with me formed a human chain and caught me. They then swung me onto the house opposite. We were trying to escape to train in something but then everything went black as though to say "two months later" or something like that but it didn't. The scene then switched to me fishing next to the leader of the escape group in the street and he reminded me about K. and I ran into the college looking for her but there were a load of school children getting in my way. I never found her in the end but this strange booming voice said "YOU ARE DREAMING" and then
      I became lucid! but then the dream started to fade and I frantically started rubbing my hands together, the dream still faded and I woke up. Hooray for my first lucid, even though it was only 5 seconds long. I think the reason I couldn't stabilise it is because I panicked when it started fading. Oh well I have lots more time to try.

    5. Bizarre Shows at DCA, Getting Lost, and Flying

      by , 09-11-2011 at 05:31 PM (The Lab Notebook)
      Non-lucid, Possibly lucid?, Lucid, [Commentary made while awake]

      I'm trying to drive to a destination, and I go through an intersection and end up on a winding road that leads down the side of a mountain to a lake. I recheck my directions and realize that I was supposed to turn right at that last intersection. I start retracing my route and going back up the hill.

      I'm at an outdoor amphitheater in Disney California Adventure. I'm way in the back of the amphitheater area, on some bleachers, watching a stage show. There is a bizarre structure on the horizon as you're looking at the stage; it looks like a pyramid with the points sticking out in a bunch of different directions, like what you would see if you put a normal pyramid in the center of a spherical structure with mirrors on all the inside surfaces. The show starts out with red fireworks that shoot out from the vicinity of this structure. The first round explodes in the sky above and to the right of the audience, the second arcs down to and explodes on the round, concrete slab of a second amphitheater behind and to the right of the audience, and the third explodes just above the audience's heads. I'm afraid that I'm going to catch on fire, but I don't.

      On stage, there's some sort of announcement from a villainous character in the show that we need to prepare to be tortured. He also says that all the women should stay in the main viewing area, while all the men should move to the building at the back of the theater with the indoor concession and souvenir stands. They all do so. Then, large snakes appear throughout the viewing area. One is close enough to me to touch me with the end of its tail, which I know is poisonous
      [um, what?]. It's very long and all coiled around on top of itself. I visually pick out its head and tail from among the mass, and try to avoid them as I pick it up and attempt to toss it away from me. This doesn't work. It wraps itself around my waist and legs, binding me in place. I'm scared, but I resign myself to it when I realize that I can't get it off and that it's just a part of the show anyway.

      After the show, which felt like it had lasted about 50 minutes, I make my way down to the stage. One of my college girlfriends is getting married here at Disney California Adventure. Several of the other girls from our group are bridesmaids, and they're all wearing long, grayish-white dresses with Disney vacation scenes on them. Two of them are pregnant, including EB. I'm here to attend the wedding, too, but I don't talk to any of them. When the wedding party starts taking pictures, I walk back to the concession and souvenir building at the back of the amphitheater.

      My walk there takes me along a gently-curving grass path marked with steppingstones with the shapes of different Disney character heads on them. This path marks the edge of the amphitheater seating area. When I get into the concession and souvenir building, I talk to one of the men who was watching the show. He says the boys had their own torture: during the entire time the show was going on, they were all held in one area and none of them were allowed to pee. I tell him that the free T-shirts can be picked up at the Great American Icee stand, over there.

      The dream I've been having fades to black
      [it may have been the one above, or a different one, I'm not quite sure]. When it does, I realize exactly what's going on, close my eyes, and think, When I open my eyes, I will be back in another dream. I open them, and I'm back at the same amphitheater, but the scenario is different.

      [I'm not 100% sure I was lucid for this next part, though.] This time, there are a whole bunch of patriotic greeting cards in boxes at the back. Everyone there has been making them to send to the families of military members and people who died in the 9/11 attacks. Some people are still making them. I see that one lady in the back row has a plate full of lasagna, and take a bite with a fork. She tells me not to eat the lasagna, that it's for the people being honored.

      Another show starts in the amphitheater. As it starts, people in front of me stand up, which forces me to stand up, too. I talk with the family to my left. They ask me about a “magic wand” that can be used to uncover secrets and extra content in the park. I point out one that a Cast Member down on a walkway that we can see from our seats is using. It looks a lot like a big, black metal detector, with a bunch of black tubes on top that form a Mickey head shape in the center. It detects sensors embedded in the ground and plays a sound when it finds them. The family climbs up onto the roof of the pagoda structure covering the back of the stands to get a better view of the stage, which is easy to do. I say, “Hey! That's rude!” but follow them up there anyway.


      [Later, I had another dream in which I was definitely lucid, but I don't remember how it started or very many of the details. Here's what I do remember:]

      I'm in an indoor environment, just walking around and admiring the scenery. I know none of this is real and acknowledge that fact in my mind, but I deeply appreciate how the scenery and the daylight illuminating it look completely real.

      When I get to the top floor of the building I'm in, I attempt to fly through the ceiling, but it doesn't work. I just bump into the ceiling, which is completely solid to me. It's a stucco ceiling.

      I'm flying around above a city, observing it from the air. Another female dream character
      [no one I know in real life] is flying with me. I take it slow, finding that I have full control over my speed and direction, but not wanting to do any more than relax and take it all in. I increase my altitude, and the other girl follows. We talk while flying. [I don't remember about what.]
    6. Lucid Catchup Post (Night of August 31-September 4)

      by , 09-11-2011 at 05:18 PM (The Lab Notebook)
      [This is a catchup post.]

      Awake, Non-lucid, Lucid, [Commentary made while awake]

      Night of August 31-September 1

      [Fragment] I still have the box I shipped out via FedEx yesterday, for some reason.

      I'm outside and lucid. I try to start flying, but am unable to. I move to another spot where I have an unobstructed view of the sky, and try taking off again. This time, I succeed. I think, I have to be looking up at the sky at about a 40-degree angle in order to fly - no, I don't! If I think that's true, then it will be! I can't set limits on it like that!

      There is a large playground where I am. I fly toward it and, to my own slight surprise, am able to fly right through all the playground equipment intangibly, with no trouble at all. I get to see the dark-gray interior cross-sections of the upright pieces of the structure. I think, Oh, heck yeah. When I get all the way through the playground, I fly up to get an overview of the landscape.


      September 4, 2011

      I'm at my current house. My mom has come over to visit. She's sitting on the couch in the living room. [The living-room furniture is set up in a mirror image of how it is in real life. The couch is facing the outside wall of the house, rather than being up against that wall.] I'm upstairs, looking down into the living room. I jump down the stairs and float gently down onto the ground floor, in full view of my mom and all the other guests downstairs, not caring this time about being seen using my dream abilities by my DCs. None of them take any notice of what I've just done or comment on it as being strange. [I don't remember how this dream began, or how or when I realized I was dreaming, but I definitely knew I was.]

      I sit down in an armchair to visit with my mom. We're talking about what it's like for me to be on my own, whether I'm lonely, whether I miss her. She asks me, “Do you ever dream about me?” I say, “Yes.” I decide I don't want to tell her that I'm dreaming about her right now and she's just a DC, though. She continues talking to me about dreams. While she's talking, I notice that she has one or two extra digits on each hand, but I decide not to point this out to her, either. I just find it interesting. I didn't know that that could happen to DCs, too.

      [Different dream, later on.] I'm in a house somewhere, with my family. We're getting ready to go out to a movie, for which someone else is buying the tickets. I take my phone out of my purse to check it. It's my smartphone that I have in real life. I've set it to display my name as “Danny Boletino,” the name of a character in a heist movie, just for the fun of it.

      I'm in another room of that same house, having a quiet conversation with my boss about fishing. He's surprised to learn that the last time I went fishing with him and his family was the first time I'd ever been fishing. I also tell him that I want to go fishing with them again, because I want to get better at it.


      ------------------------
      Side notes:

      Lots of day residue here. I saw my mom yesterday, and we had company over at our house. However, my mom did not really come over to my house; I saw her elsewhere. Also, one of the last threads I was this one, about looking at your hands to RC or stabilize the dream, so I'm not surprised that that showed up in my dream.

      Neat. That's the first time my new smartphone has shown up in one of my dreams. It's been exactly two weeks since I got it, which is also exactly how long it took me to have my first false awakening in my new house after I moved into it (see this DJ entry). Evidently, two weeks is how long it takes for my my unconscious mind to accept something as normal and start incorporating it into my dreams.
    7. Golf, lizards, creating weather and becoming lucid.

      by , 09-11-2011 at 02:24 PM
      I started off on a golf course with my friend, we were playing golf against some pro's and i was joking around saying "oh im brilliant at this hockey game" to see the reaction of the golfer, he squared up to me and said "what?" i said "oh i'm sorry sir i meant golf you see"

      We then started to play and my first shot i was using some big club of some sort i don't really know and i smashed the ball and it flew and landed right near the hole.
      My friend then went "can i putt it?" "sure" i said.
      He didn't use a putter he used the same club as i did, before i could say anything he'd hit it into some cove with the sea flushing through it.

      I went inside and ran to the back of this cove which was oddly quite well lit, it was a large cave ish sort of thing with rocks mainly covering the floor and streams of water from the sea, as i turned around i noticed a lizard coming in but it was wierd, it wasn't reptilian yet it walked sort of like a komodo dragon, it had slimy amphibian skin which was dark green, rather like a frog and it had a tail like a juvenile frog.
      It's head was wider than the rest of its body but had the same sort of flat feature to it, it opened it's large jaws to bear oddly placed teeth at different areas of the mouth whether they were the fiorst row or the back row but along the rows there were multiple teeth missing. The gums of its mouth were bright pink but not flushed with blood and it had no toungue either.

      Suddenly a massive lizard came running through the door, must have beenb 7 - 8 feet long, it ran up to me and my friend shouted "you have to bow to it" i tried to bow and it put its jaws around my head and bit down, wierdly i was back in the same position i was in a few seconds earlier, much like a checkpoint.
      This time however i grabbed a nearby rock and slammed it down on the lizards head and made a break for it.



      When we got outside we were on the street and it was night time, the yellow emitting from the street lamps reflected on the environment and myself.
      Another lizard was there so this time i picked up a fire extinquisher and sprayed it, it was the extinguisher with CO2 in because of the metal ejector but oddly when the CO2 hit the lizard it turned to a foamy substance, but then i realised it was snow, so i said "lets make it snow!!"
      I sprayed the whole street with the stuff and before i knew it, i was getting cold. I fell back into the snow and began to make a snow angel, it was cold, but didnt melt.

      I walked down the street and ran and slid on my feet along the large ice patches.

      This - is when i realised i was dreaming, not through any reality check but instead through the awareness technique. I needed to solidify myself within the dream so i looked down at my hands and began to inspect them, first looking at my palms which were still yellow from the emitting street lamp, the creases on my hands were identical, as if my mind just knew exactly what they looked like, i turn my hands over to look closesly at the tiny blonde hairs and the pores on the top of my hands, i then said "stay lucid - solidify me in this lucid dream" i felt a rush of excitement in my stomach and i calmed it. I then said "clarity!" and the whole world became extremely clear yet i still was looking down at my hands, i could feel myself lifting from the dream, possibly from the excitement.

      I knew i wasn't going to be able to regain this control so there was one technique i finally tried to use, i closed my eyes and fell backwards and then kept my body extremely still waiting for SP.
      I knew i was awake, or thought i was, with SP i began looking at HI with my eyes closed, i felt myself sort of spinning, suddenly my arm had a spasm and i knew i had come out of SP. i sat up in my bed.


      I then really woke up from my false awakening.
    8. 30th Shared Dreaming Attempt - Vesterguard's Dream

      by , 09-11-2011 at 11:16 AM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Vesterguard's Dreams

      non-lucid - Notes - lucid

      11-09-11 I wake up in my bed and have a feeling I am dreaming. I am having trouble opening my right eye. I ask the dream for more vision which it gives me. I am about to just fly through the window as normal, but decide to take a bit of time stabilising the dream this time.

      I do this by grabbing hold of the curtain by the window and really looking at my plants in the window. I normally only have one plant in the window and it looks smaller in the dream than it does in waking life. Besides engaging touch and vision I also try and smell my plants, though without success, however when I do this one of the plants transform right in front of me, which I consider a bit odd as normally I can't really make transformations of objects all that well, but hey it wasn't intentional.

      After some time of doing all of this I sit myself down in the window and notice the weather is grey and drizzling. I think to myself that it is pretty much as it was in waking life. I feel like I am getting ill in waking life and the cold and wind from dream environment is uncomfortable for me so I sit and spend a bit of time altering the chilling sensations so I can still feel them, but without the “cold” feeling attached.

      I fly upwards and encounter an Asian woman hanging in the air along with some laundry out for drying. I am about to just fly past her, but decide to interact a bit, considering the possibility that this may not be a DC. I ask her name, which is really weird and I semi-hate myself for not remembering, and tell her “That is a weird name”, to which she replies “Not as weird as yours!” “Oh yeah, what is my name?” I ask “Stefan Vamt” she replies and I have to concede “Yeah, that is a weird name”.

      Note: First time a DC has given me a name completely different to my own.

      I have been flying around her a bit in order to keep off the ground, at one point I did try just hovering, which went fine, so I don't know why I have been flying around. In any case I get sent spinning into circles, which I at first try to stop.

      “You know what, Spinning, not a bad idea, lets try” So I spin and it nearly crashes the dream and I abort mid way (I think). However I get slung off to one side onto a building my vision faded from the dream completely, but I manage to grab hold of the edge of the roof and start crawling onto the roof until I can feel the roof top (it is a pointy roof) and I start making my way towards the gable.

      When I get to the gable I start getting flashes of the building and more specifically the small water pools at the ground. I decide to try and relax a bit while keeping my sense of touch in the dream. Soon enough the dream stabilises and I take off into flight towards the building across the gap. I decide to just take it easy and observe what the dream presents.

      When I think this the yellow brick wall becomes enriched with detail and I start ascending (not in a spiritual sense). I can't help the expectation that pops into my head as I am going upwards “El Castillo is going to be at the top of the building” which to my joy it is.

      I make my way towards the pyramid that this time actually looks like the actual thing. There are ceremonial artefacts (if you can call crafted objects in a dream artefacts as they aren't necessarily man made), like pottery and such at the top level next to the temple building atop the pyramid.

      I shout out “Fellow dreamers!”, but again my voice seem to be blurry and the words come out slower than normal and at this point I give up on trying to light the beacon, but instead go exploring.

      I turn around and see constructions similar to my first visit. There are columns and archways all over the place and the jungle floor is scattered with smaller buildings all made in something that looks like sandstone.

      The amazing thing is that these buildings doesn't seem intrusive as the foliage is allowed to grow freely, even more astonishing is the sense of living it provides to the city. A perfect integration of architecture and nature, where one adds beauty to the other in a synergistic fashion.

      I look down and spot a large figure and recognise it as one of the feline figures I saw in my first visit here and decide to go and introduce myself. When I get down there it turns out to be a somewhat different figure, as essentially this is a big grey/white cat. It is however a few heads taller than me, has quite the...ehhh.. big bones, is bipedal and dressed in clothing that seems foreign to the city I am in.

      It comes over to me and greets me, it knows about me from the first time I was here as I apparently made quite a gossip. I grab it's out stretched paw.

      I wake up.


      I am in a shop where a couple of my old friends are running it. Furthermore they have an area out back where there are houses and other shops. I walk out into the back and and start talking with the older brother, who doesn't actually look like what I remember and he is wearing overalls.

      I ask him if the entire back housing is theirs as well and he looks around and indicate that not only the houses, but all the shops around the rectangular yard belong to them as well.

      Impressive I think to myself, even that shop up on the corner I once visited is theirs. I walk back into the shop and watch the youngest of the brothers handle a purchase, he seems little more than a baby now and has grown considerably younger.

      I walk out the shop and down the street that transforms into a hallway by first turning into a tunnel type thing. I notice one of the gates on the right hand side is open and know that this is where they keep the Tyrannosaurus, so I can't help but always looking back towards that gate and expect a T Rex come running out, I am close to my room anyway.

      Notes: I finaly understand the term semi-lucid now as this is exactly what I was, I knew I was dreaming sort of, I just hadn't “awoken” yet.

      I open the door to my room on the left hand side and expect a Veloci Raptor (look at my extensive Jurassic Park knowledge of ancient reptiles!) to attack me, even if it does I will just punch it in its face.

      As I walk through my vision starts to fade and I am questioning if I am dreaming
      , but then I notice that my bass is standing upright against one of the sofa's and I know it to be lying on the floor, more specifically I know it to be lying on the floor between the window (where I am trying to go) and me.

      I stabilise by breathing and calming down and gradually my visual sphere of perception is filled out with my room. Along with that I notice that there are quite a lot of tall trees outside in the garden that wouldn't normally be there. I notice that the weather is very similar to the last dream.

      Before I fly out the window I expect El Castillo to be on my right hand side and start flying through the window. But I end up face against the glass and have to break it in order to get through. I fly upwards and to the right and there is something that looks like the pyramid but isn't quite that.

      My flight is terrible and I end up slamming into a yellow building and have to climb up the roof. But strangely I decide to fuck worrying about my lack of control, which seems to strengthen it gradually as the dream progress.

      From the roof of the yellow building I look across at yet another yellow building and run towards it and leap taking off into flight (which is back to normal now). In the top flat on the corner of the building there is a television set running and I think “Great, gonna port there through TV!” which I try, but am unsuccessful.

      I think I just end up on the other side of the building and as I look up there are again loads of buildings that look like El Castillo, but isn't. So I decide to just give up and start flying down the street. The city reminds me of a mixture between Barcelona and a Moroccan city.




      Colours and buildings shaped like that. But the streets are modern and wide and there is plenty of life and activity in the restaurants and bars in the one I am in.

      Like this.



      I notice my mum sitting at a bar that is facing the streets wearing a cowboy hat. I carry on down the street and decides to chill a bit. What was the TotM? something about elements and walking on water. Well no water for me to walk on here, but plenty of wine glasses filled with it.

      I sit down and reach my hand out towards a glass of water and make it boil and bubble. I intend to grab it out of the glass and hold it in the air, but someone talks to me from the back before I get a chance of exercising more control.

      The voice makes me think I don't have much time left, which is weird and I don't even turn around to see who it was. I continue down and find a candle on one of the tables. I start pulling the fire towards me and the flame lengthens towards my hand.

      Lame I think and carry on and find two candles on a table with a stranger sat next to it. I first pull rather hard mentally which extinguish one of the candles. I try again fairly hard, but with a bit more of a gentle build-up of force until the little flame leaps from the candle and into my hand where it continue to burn for a couple of seconds until I wake up.

    9. Lucid in the park

      by , 09-11-2011 at 06:26 AM
      I’m in the back yard of my father’s home, and it is now adjacent to a large oval. I have some memories of both the army being nearby, and wanting to become a werewolf.

      It is still light outside, and I’m angry about this, because this guy is going to turn me into a werewolf, and I have to wait until it is dark. I’m really keen to become a werewolf, and I remember that it was almost a full moon last night, and that tonight will be the perfect opportunity.

      Whilst I’m waiting, I am at the oval across the road, and for some reason, with no RC’s to make sure, I become lucid. After a brief moment of fist pumping and shouting that I’m dreaming I realise that being lucid could ruin my chances of becoming a werewolf (evidently I’m pretty excited about the werewolf thing) so I decide I shouldn’t do anything that would jeopardise this, and take it easy on the teleporting and DBZ antics.

      What I do decide to do is to make a sword, as it seems like a sensible thing to do if the army should arrive. After a while of just looking at my hand, and expecting there to be a samurai sword materializing any second, I realized it wasn’t doing me any good and tried something else. I stuck out my hand, and grabbed the top bar of the fence, pretending I was holding the hilt of the sword, and that when I lifted my hand into vision, it would indeed be there. So much for that. As I lifted my hand, it was empty, and the fence was still there.

      The realistic feel of the fence had reminded me to stabilize however, and as I rubbed the fence and grass for a while I was once more reminded of the werewolf transformation, so taking a side-road back to the house, I became confused.

      Arriving in some kind of bazaar with high bare rock walls surrounding the stalls, I was joined by my ‘studies of religion’ class, and our teacher (we are presently learning about Buddhism, so it wasn’t too far of a stretch for us to take a tour of the ancient markets) and we continued through.

      After this, we flew (swimming in the air, and unable to get any real speed) to some kind of doctor’s (perhaps a dentist) for something organised by the school. Next door was a charity store, so I went in searching for things to use for my whisky still. From here the dream grows vague, and fades away. All I remember is something about looking through school photos of my friends on a computer.

    10. Weird Lucid...9/10/11(Early Morning)

      by , 09-11-2011 at 05:51 AM (INeverWakeUp's Super Dream Journal)
      NOTE: Please regard my guessed date for my last entry. It was somewhere more around 9/5 not 9/2. Also, I have almost no clue what the chronological order of this dream was. I woke up, and kept falling back to sleep after it, so my recalled on it is a little jacked. I'm also going to start doing what Puffin(I think it's Puffin) does. I'll use a scale to show how lucid, and how vivid my dream was. This will give you, my good readers, a better feel of what the dream was like. Here's the scale:

      LUCIDITY:
      0-Was not a lucid dream period.
      1-Very weak lucidity. Almost no control.
      2-Having too many lucid downsides. Can't control well.
      3-Moderate control. Too lost though.
      4-Good control. Able to clearly think, and do.
      5-Perfect control. Remember all tasks, no fails, etc.

      VIVIDNESS:
      0-I can remember every detail of the dream.
      1-I can recall all the important things, and some details.
      2-I remember few details, but all the important things.
      3-Can't recall very well, some important factors though.
      4-Major events and details are too vivid, can't recall.
      5-Can't recall anything but tiny unimportant details.

      LUCIDITY: 2
      VIVIDNESS: 4

      I was being head-locked by a tall African-American man, after I tried to defend my Dad. He'd taken pictures at a crime scene, so we could report it to the Police. The man saw my Dad, and got ready to lash out and hit him. I stopped his fist, and the man put me in a head lock. My Dad couldn't do anything for me now. This guy was far too strong for him. So, I now unleash a small wave of ki, and break away from the guy. He gets to come and hit me. I get in a fighting stance.
      "Taekwondo!" I say(Kinda pointless). I now start to beat the living hell out of the thug and my Dad comes in for the finish. I jump up onto a building by us. People are trying to break into the building, but can't seem to take down the wall. So, I use the Kamehameha on the wall, and it goes down.
      That's all I remember.

      I remember having a lucid. I have no recall of it anymore, because I'm a dumbass and didn't type it up when I should've.

      Kaomea's Dreams

      Carnaval
      I'm at some run-down carnival wandering around, just checking the place out. It had a very unusual vibe, not vibrant and good, more.... mystic and horrorish. It seems deserted for the most part, a tad grungy. I come to a machine right before I leave and it looks interesting. Not sure what it does, just that I put in money, the odds are against the player, but the prize seemed pretty cool. At the time I knew I could alter the outcome also, so I put $5 into the machine. A piece of white paper immediately flutters out onto the ground. A game attendant picks it up and reads it. I telepathically read his mind. It says I'm a spy. A spy? Hmmm... He gives me this really odd look then quickly ushers me outside, saying that he can't help me. He goes to get my $5 returned to me from his cash drawer but I had already retrieved it from the machine when it rejected my money... I use the time wisely and observe him. I then apologize and tell him it wasn't intentional. He seemed really unnerved and I continued on my way.

      Mancon
      Somewhere along the way (I'm not sure which dream he appeared in, I think I wasn't conscious when I was with him) I met up with Mancon because I caught the ending bit where we're standing in my kitchen I think? It feels like he needs to go but his energy is vibrant and seems quite happy overall. I get the feeling we did something cool, lol. Anyway, he begins to tell me something, I inturrupt him and say something to the extend of, 'yea yea, I know.' He continues and says, "Next time, let's make it to the temple." I think he was either at the carnival with me or the next dream with the snow... but I'm not sure. I tell him 'ok' in regards to making it to the temple tomorrow.

      Snow slide ride
      I'm in some sort of amusement park place... with fake snow. I know it's fake because I see green grass or turf below the snow. It also feels icey. I'm standing at the top of a very large slide, about five people are connected and go down in front of me. I go down with them but remain unconnected to the last person. We get to the bottom and there's only one person still there, the others vanished. I gather up snow and toss the ball at his head. He turns to look, seems annoyed, lol. He tosses one back at me. Another rider comes down the slide and me and the other guy beam him with snowballs. It evolves into a snow fight.

      Mayan Temple
      All of a sudden I'm standing in some young teenager's room, on his bed which has blue bedsheets and looking at a full length mirror.. the kind that is built onto the closet door. I'm wondering what I'm doing here and then look at the kid, and then at my reflection. I immediately become lucid and he asks, "What are you going to do today?" Ummm.... OH! DREAM SIGN! Temple! As I bounce lightly on his bed as I consider the lucidity and say, "We should go to the temple." He perks up a bit at this and then I start thinking of Mancon again, thinking that I could just portal him straight to me and the three of us can go together. At the last moment before I drag him to me I realize I shouldn't... I can just meet him at the temple. I agree with my logic and motion the kid over to me. He tells me ok but that he doesn't know how to get there.

      Teleportation
      He climbs onto his bed in front of me and I wrap my arms around his shoulders to keep him secure and ensure he teleports with me (I have a tendency of dropping people occasionally). I instruct him to close his eyes and then walk him through a visualization of the temple. I'm visualizing it at the same time I'm describing it to him. We're almost there when I realize I didn't specify where we're going to land and I feel an urgency (from him?) of what to focus on. "We're going to land at the top of the temple" I tell him just a moment before we actually land. I tell him, "You can open your eyes slowly, we're here."

      Arrival at the temple
      I open my eyes and hahahaha we're actually here. Damn, I knew it would work but I didn't actually think it would work. I release the boy and we both have a look around. I laugh at myself and then think about the beacon as I don't see other dreamers. I wonder if someone has activated it already and think that it doesn't matter, I can always activate it again if they did. I close my eyes and focus on the beacon, the yellow, red, and green rays and cast that image widely in the minds of anyone listening. I do this for a few moments and then release it and wait. I look at the sky and notice all the stars... but they're moving rapidly... I continue to stare and realize they're almost like shooting stars except they don't fade out. They're absolutely brilliant... are those other dreamers?

      Attack
      All of a sudden the sky is enveloped in a different energy, like it's under attack. I snatch up the boy I brought with me and sprint over to a corner of the platform and stay low. We watched as the night sky erupted into an intense display of colors... It seemed like the new more agressive energy was picking up and carrying the other peaceful and calm energy away. It actually seemed brutal and I was trying to understand what was happening. I didn't want to leave the boy there alone so we waited for it to die out which it eventually did.

      Safe haven?
      I see a woman leading a group of others now down into the temple through two doors. She was the last to enter and at this point I step out of the shadows with the boy and stop her. I ask her to keep him safe for me as I wanted to pursue what just unfolded. She agreed and I nudged him forward. She immediately points a wand she's carrying with her and kills him. WTF. I become furious at her for killing him, that wasn't at all what I meant.

      Justice?
      I walk over to her and take her wand... it feels like a form of identification. I walk into the temple ahead of her and she demands her wand back. I refuse. She follows after me. I get to the group she was leading and somehow acquire a second wand which I keep in my possession. The group seems young, teenagers. I remain in a specific chamber with them while we wait for something. They keep reaching for the wands I'm guarding but I brush them away. In their frustration they start pushing themselves closer and closer to me until they get too personal and I shove them back. I'm patient but eventually that wears thin. I extend my energy bubble out about five feet and keep them there.

      Time to be heard
      I'm now with a teammate of mine, I ask her to hold something for me as I needed my hands free. We're about to go into a court room of sorts to be 'heard' when I wake up.

    13. Advanced TOTM (elemental control) Destroyed!

      notes

      Actually had this dream Thursday night, just now getting the chance to journal it here.

      I was riding in a van to my grandparents house. My grandfather (who died a few months ago) was driving, and my cousin was in the passenger seat, although he looked like my granddad. There wasn't really anything that triggered my lucidity- not even the fact that my grandfather is dead- but I suddenly realized that I was dreaming. I didn't even need an RC, because once I *did* realize it, I looked at grandaddy, and knowing he had passed was RC enough.

      I told him to stop the van, and I got out, smelling the air, stabilizing, and deciding what to do. I was at a corner near my grandparent's house, where there was a drive-thru burger joint and a small clear pond surrounded by trees. I decided to do the TOTM. I have had trouble before walking on water, so I decided to go straight to the advanced.

      I began by summoning some wind, feeling it pick up around me. I started to make it swirl in a giant cyclone around the pond. I jumped into it and let it buffet me upward, riding the cyclone in a circle to the top. I caused it to become more of a whirlpool and let it suck me down to the water, then made it buffet me back up.

      As I rode along the top of the cyclone, I began shooting fireballs from my hands. At first they were small and hard to see, but slowly I focused on making bigger and bigger fireballs, setting the trees that ringed the pond on fire, continuing to ride around the circumference of the cyclone. I began to manipulate the existing fires in the trees, causing them to grow and jump at my command.

      After awhile, I floated back down and let the cyclone subside. I know I had done 2 elements, but I had planned to go ahead and do all 4 while I was at it, so I went for earth. I walked over to the burger joint drive thru, and saw some cracks in the asphalt. I caused the cracks to widen, and the earth to split apart. I did this several times, including some cracks in front of a car in the drive thru. I opened a large hole underneath the car and caused it (and its occupants, who screamed in terror) to to fall into the earth, closing the hole back up over the top.

      There was a sexy girl standing at the drive thru, so I took a timeout to make some dream lovin

      Then I walked back over to the pond, which was rippling as the wind was still blowing fairly strongly. I stilled the waters, which allowed me to see a fish. I tried to send a lightning bolt at the fish (something I have never done) with no luck. I caused the waters to become rough again, splashing and swirling. I figured I might as well try to walk on it... I couldn't. So I froze the water and rolled a ball across the surface in hopes of helping me believe I could walk on it. It rolled for a bit, but then fell in, which wasn't ideal. I tried to walk on the the frozen part, but I fell through. D'oh! I swear I'm gonna do this one one day!


      Then I woke up.


      That was a REALLY fun lucid! Destroyed the advanced task, but still can't walk on water. I can fly, morph, send objects flying through the air, shoot fireballs, create cyclones that lift me up, open holes in the ground, walk through walls, and yet I can't seem to friggin walk on water! Gotta love dream control

      I figure I might as well put all my old dreams I posted on this website into my new dream journal, but I'm too lazy to do that one by one. So for all you die-hard fans (haha, what die-hard fans? ), here is the link to my old thread, started on March 4, 2010:
