    Lucid Dreams

    1. The Mind journal

      by , 07-25-2011 at 02:37 PM (Shooting from the Sun: Solarflare)
      I was recording the last 2 dreams in this journal, in a dream journal, in my dream. While i was doing this, i was reliving the dreams, talk about deja vu O_O
    2. The windy field

      by , 07-25-2011 at 02:24 PM (Shooting from the Sun: Solarflare)
      I was flying oin top of a windy field in a very non-vivid dream. The grass was swaying to the wind and the skies were VERY gray. I YELLED 'I'm DREA-'' and ''I NEED TO REALITY CHE'' with the last syllable of each word getting cut off. Soon i lost lucidity. (I'm not even sure i got it in the first place).

      Soon i woke up in a False Awakening. There was thunder out my windows as loud as..... VERY LOUD!

      Soon i woke up and there was thunder outside my window O_O
    3. 10th shared dreaming attempt-It'sMEE (Emma)'s dream

      by , 07-25-2011 at 10:00 AM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Emma's Dream

      My first dream was after my alarm goes off in the middle of the night.
      First there's a nice, dark room. It's made of some sort of dark, reddish wood, and the fabric is in the same dark tones. There's a table here too. I sit at the table and look about, wondering where I am. Then a rather old man with grey hair, and thick black eyebrows walks in. He isn't wearing a shirt , and he's quite flabby and has a hairy chest and I swear I can't see any pants on him, but so far he's behind a chair. He can't see me.

      Then I find myself in a tent with no memory of the wooden house. The tent is large, blue and pyramid shaped. I remember my old school field , but when I look over my shoulder I can't see the school. But I know this is my old school field (a recurring place in my dreams!) because of the way there are hills on one side and trees bordering the whole field, hiding a wire fence. Behind me where the school should be, there is just fog. I don't know what I'm doing here, but it's like there's something just behind the trees I need to get to so I start running across the field.

      These were just hazy dream fragments. When I woke up in the morning, I can't remember either dreams immediately, and I'm frustrated. So I lay down and try to do an early morning WILD, which in the past have sometimes been successful. But today I'm not asleep enough or my sister is making too much noise because it doesn't want to work. I think what happened next might have been an OBE. I could feel my thumb in my palm, even though my hands were one on each side of me. I rub my right thumb in my left palm a bit as I begin to feel my other hands too, my 'real' hands, both at the same time. Then I move my real hands, and I can feel my hands either side of me. My thumb no longer feels like it's in my palm.

    4. 2 False Awakenings and being a Bounty Hunter

      by , 07-25-2011 at 09:21 AM
      I was a bounty hunter chasing these robots. They looked like droids from Star Wars and come to think of it my team looked like Delta Squad from Star Wars Republic Commando. We were chasing the droid or someone and I was yelling orders. The hallways were red like it was lava or something.


      I had a false awakening but I knew it was a dream I walked downstairs and read a newspaper. I kept thinking about Megan Fox so she would appear butshe didnt appear. When I awoke I wanted to go back so I just went back to sleep and I did.

      I had another false awakening and I was reading a newspaper that had a picture of my sister in it. The picture was upside down.
      I got out of bed or started thinking of Megan Fox again it still didn't work.
    5. Winehouse, Sheen, And I

      by , 07-25-2011 at 05:49 AM (Ezpata's World)
      I'm in a deserted area. For some reason, Amy Winehouse and Charlie Sheen are there as well. Winehouse seemed... well, high. No surprise there. Sheen was... high. and Angry. Again, no surprise. I ask what Sheen is so angry about, and he says, "We've got to stop the damn ponies from raping the fucking sheep!!!". Okay. So this will be a weird one. Check. Anyway, the sheep appear to be beyond the swamp, which appears out of nowhere like it's where David Copperfield grew up. After stumbling through the swamp for what seemed like hours, we finally found the ponies. Except, they weren't ponies. They were weird squid things with man appendages and three eyeballs, each the size of a basketball. Straight outta H.P. Lovecraft. Winehouse started freaking out, and trying to hit them with a stick. I used my Boomstick (No, I'm not talking about THAT, you immature assholes, who have apparently never watched Evil Dead), but it wasn't having a major effect. Uber bolts were a tad more effective, but wouldn't kill. Sheen had the right idea though. He lit his fists on fire, causing each of the creatures to explode into confetti when he hit them. He then summoned a cloud and whooshed through the air. Grabbing Winehouse, I flew after him. "What the hell was all that??!??!??", "Well, I wasn't exaggerating when I said all those things." I was about to ask something but he then said, "And yes, I did marry a tree.". Well, I WAS going to ask it. After a while, we couldn't find the sheep or the "ponies". After a while, I just said, "Fuck it, Let's just burn down the whole damn thing.". To which Sheen responded, " SWAMP BURNING, BY GOLLY GEE WILLIKERS LET'S DO IT!!!". Winehouse, however, said this: "I can't do any swamp burning, I'm already on a quest for One-Eyed Willie's treasure", and then hopped off like a schizo jackrabbit on meth. Oh, and a rainbow was coming from her back. Sheen and I then burned it all down. We never found the sheep or the ponies, but we didn't really care. Sheen got wasted, and I decided to wake up due to the craziness.

    6. 7/24/11 WILD, and Other Odd Dreams

      by , 07-25-2011 at 04:47 AM (Scrawlings of a Mad Man)
      1) Karate Dojo. Only three or so people there. I’ve been left out of something… –Skip- Marshall’s party at an obstacle course. Laser walls that you have to get over, but you get a winch to bring you over.

      2) Sister sends me a text about my break up with my girlfriend.

      3) Driving somewhere on a highway. Friends intercept (quite literally. They spun their car around to cut me off) me to take me to some event.

      4) WILD. In a large city, walking down a street. A massive, ornate, domed structure is off in the distance. LUCID. I say, “Clarity”, but the dream blurs further. Grrrr… “Undo, optimize scene”. Things clear up and I can see perfectly. I walk down the street to a corner with a museum styled building and see girls wearing bikinis selling magazines… My mind says they’re desperate for money due to water shortages…

      5) I return to the laser place, with my… mother I think? We’re trying to get through but aren’t supposed to be there.

    8. Dream Journal 7/24/2011

      by , 07-25-2011 at 12:11 AM
      had my first lucid in like almost 2 months, finally broke my dryspell lol. i overslept, and i was dreaming that i woke up and looked at the clock. the clock said "7:18" and i was like "WTF! 7:18 in the evening" but then i noticed there was no am or pm sign next to it, and automatically boom, i become lucid. for some reason the light also went on lol as soon as i hit lucid, kinda like a lightbulb over my head. i looked at my hands and they were fairly normal. i was about to "secure" the dream and make it more vivid, but i felt like that wouldnt work as well so i tried to fly out my window asap. that didn't work very well because the dream faded lol. i became lucid again in the next dream (i forgot how), and this time, i made sure the dream was stable. i started smelling the dust on my cabinets (eh) and sneezed, touched everything blah blah. then, as i was about to jump out my window to fly, i was like, "how do i know this isn't reality right now?" lol. the dream felt so real i had to make sure that it wasn't reality and it was really a dream, so what i did was i made the dream fade out on purpose, and then came back to my original position. crazy stuff. i then jumped out of my window, where i saw people on my front lawn, so i landed there. they started talking to me about stuff and i got lost into the dream and all the action, where i also lost my lucidity. oh well
    9. Faeries and Raven-Symoné

      by , 07-24-2011 at 08:53 PM
      I had a beautifully vivid lucid dream. 10/10. I wasn't even trying to have an LD last night (I went to bed at like 12:50 AM instead of 9 PM). The dream must've happened at like 7 AM, and it is the only one from last night. It was pretty long, my longest LD ever also. If you see a *, I have provided an explanation at the bottom.

      NON-DREAM | DREAM | LUCID

      I can't remember anything about the dream before I got lucid. I was under a wide and tall tunnel, almost like an overpass (but with no street on it). There were like six to seven people standing around me, and I had the feeling that they were my human family*. They told me that my faery family* was outside, out from under the tunnel/arch/overpass thing. I flew out of the tunnel to meet them, but first I flew overhead. Just outside of the tunnel was a parallel street, and down the street to my left, it turned into a sort of downtown city (like with large apartment buildings and things like that). The place in front of me was like a village square, with fountains, plants, and "cement tiles" on the ground (and they were sort of torn up with age). I can't really explain about the "tile" thing, but that is what they looked like. Apparently, there was also a very large swimming pool type-thing. When I flew over it, I dropped down into the water a few times (I'm not really that good at flying). Then I landed on the sidewalk parallel to the road. My faery family* was there, and my faery uncle (at least I think he was my uncle) was in a white buttoned up shirt and black tie and he looked sad. They all looked sad, and I got the feeling that his wife was hurt or killed. They were going to get in a black limo to go someplace (I guess the hospital), and I was about to go with them, but I didn't. I turned around and started walking down the sidewalk towards the downtown part. A short girl appeared to my right. She had blonde hair. I decided to walk with her. Then I told her that I was dreaming and that she wasn't real, that she was just in my dream. She just said, "Mmhmm" (yes). I grabbed her arm and asked her how she felt, knowing that she was just a DC and not real. She said that she liked it. I just started thinking that she was really dumb to think that. I pulled her arm and tried to stretch it. It stretched to like five feet and she just giggled. Her arm when back to where it was before and we continued walking. Then we met a non-famous, younger version of Raven-Symoné. Apparently she lived in one of the apartment buildings like on the second floor. I don't ever remember walking up the stairs, but when we got up to the balcony, I pulled them both aside and told them that I was dreaming and that I could give them anything that they wanted (because I'm just generous like that and I wanted to give non-real people something ). I tried to give the blond girl faery wings. I imagined that they were lavender, gossamer, and pointy, but they ended up really weird looking: they were dark burgundy, rounded, floppy, and looked like they were made of satin instead of flesh. I knew they were never going to work or flap, but she didn't seem to mind; she loved them. Raven got all giddy and hugged me. During the hug, she said she wanted a watch. I imagined one on her, and when we came out of the hug, she had a black watch on her left wrist. Then we went in her apartment. She had an older brother and a dad that lived there. When we first went in the door, we went down a hallway and into a small living room. The hallway continued in front of us, to where I supposed the bedrooms and bathroom were. Just to my left was a couch against the wall. Raven's brother was in the middle seat, and her dad was on the seat farthest from me. I sat next to the brother. To my right was a love seat which the blond girl took at seat at, and Raven sat in front of my on the coffee table. I told the brother and dad what I told the girls, and that when I woke up that they would all be gone and I would never see them again. The boys looked at me like "Are you kidding me?" I said that I was sorry they would cease to exist and that it really wasn't my fault. Then I almost woke up, but I pulled myself back into the dream. Raven was now next to the blond girl on the love seat. Behind that love seat was a window with the curtains pulled. I focused on the details on the curtain to stay in the dream and it worked. I then stood up and went to the corner that was to my front left, where there was a large flat screen TV. I touched it like a touch screen and moved things around on it. Raven's dad looked amazed and shocked at me, asking me how I did it. I told him since it was my dream that I could do whatever I wanted. I proceeded to a table to the dad's left, where a bottle of blue liquid was sitting. I picked it up and stretched the bottle like I did the girl's arm. It almost feels like silly putty when you stretch something. The dad's jaw dropped. For some reason, I took a drink of the blue liquid, then spit it in a nearby trashcan (because for some reason I thought that it was poison, like some type of cleaner. When I was spiting it out, I almost blacked out of the dream, like 3 times worse than before, but again I pulled myself back. I went back to the bottle and poured it. I made it pour up instead of down and Raven's dad was dumbfounded. I looked at Raven and told her that I wanted to see her in my next dream, to remember me(as an experiment to see if it would work; See here). She shook her head yes, and I woke up in SP. I lay there a few minutes, wanting to see if I could WILD, but I really wanted to just write that amazing dream in my dream journal. It was a good thing I did, too, because it was 8:30 AM.

      * Okay, I have this thing where I want to shapeshift into this character that I made. She is half faery on her father's side and half human on her mother's side. That's why she has two families described the way I described them. The faery side of the family aren't little tiny faeries like Tinker Bell; they are human sized and have wings, described like how I wanted the blond girl's wings to look like.

      I am so happy! This is like my seventh lucid dream, and I guess 7 is my lucky number! ;D

    10. Parasitic Worm Invasion, Puzzle Pieces, and SHAPESHIFTING

      by , 07-24-2011 at 08:00 PM (Zukin's Dream Journal! <3)
      Scalpel's Sword

      My friend and I were climbing a mountain. It was supposed to be like Mt LeConte, but it was a lot steeper and treacherous. There were more places to lose footing and fall off the side of the mountain and more things to have to navigate.

      We made it to a section of the mountain designated as the top for those who could not continue. It was the true top of the mountain, but it wasn't the highest point. To get to the highest point, one would have to climb on man made structures, like an obstacle course.

      Having reached the true top, we looked up and saw what looked to be a net above us. A little bit passed us were rocks that were attached to the net. It looked dangerous to walk under.

      My friend was really paranoid about the rocks falling, so I went first to show her that it would be OK.

      Once we made it pass that, there was a wooden staircase that went both up and down. I remembered from another dream, maybe a year ago, that if you went down then you would come into a room with a screaming lady who was trapped and clawed things into the wall.

      I'm trying to search for this dream in my DJ...but my DJ is becoming too big to easily search for things anymore. That is really annoying. >.> Anyways, I wish I could prove it, but I find it really cool now how some dreams are just coming together like a puzzle.

      I continued to climb up the stairs. I came into a room I had to climb up awkwardly placed stairs, three feet apart, to press a button and open a box that had a hint for me.

      Once I had done so, I read the hint. It read: Go into the bar. Tell the woman that you would like a Scalpel's Sword. Be ready to fight.

      I found the bar. I looked at the woman, and whispered Scalpel's Sword. She knew exactly what I meant, and leaped up from the counter and we began fighting, I woke up though.

      SHAPESHIFTING!!!

      I WISH I remembered ALL of this dream.

      I had VERY high lucidity in this dream, and VERY high clarity.

      I was thinking about what I should do with this lucid dream, when I realized that I didn't have any lucid goals!

      I didn't know what the Nightstalker Task was, I didn't know what the Task of the Month was, I didn't feel like going to the MDRC , so I had to decide something.

      I decided on practicing shapeshifting.

      I was standing in the grass, looking at my shadow.

      I watched as my shadow became the shape of a lion or a tiger, and felt the transformation. It was wicked.

      There was someone else there with me, but I forget who.

      I remember running around as a lion/tiger, feeling how strange this felt.


      Parasitic Invasion

      I was in the store with my mother. I kept finding interesting pins on the ground, one said "It's all about the PLUR!" I liked the pin, and stuck it to my shirt.

      I was heading back...When everything went silent. Background noise - GONE. Everyone around me - FROZEN.

      It was like something out of The Happening.

      I stood there for a moment, completely confused. I did a reality check but everything came back normal.

      The lights flickered.

      I slowly continued to walk until I found mom. She was not frozen like the other people.

      I tried talking to her, and then the power went out. Everything was black.

      When the lights came back on she was gone, and standing in front of me was a woman with worms coming out of her. She looked like Medusa, but all over.

      I decided to GTFO at that point.

      The dream skips, and now I am living in a hotel with a friend of mine. The parasitic worm invasion has spread and we are trying to keep it out. It's dark outside, and dark inside. The power has gone out, making visibility dim.

      We hear creaking, warping noises coming from outside the room. We know that they are near us.

      In the darkness I barely see the worm infested humans creeping towards us.

      We decide it is time to go and set this HOTEL ON FIRE.

      We quickly grab our things in the darkness and try to run past the masses of worms. We almost make it out, when I realize that I have to go back in to get my car keys.

      I'm having trouble running quick enough. We put a bomb in the hotel so that it would explode at any minute. I'm worrying about my friend outside the hotel, hoping she is safe.

      I grab my keys and dart out the door. I look back at the hotel...and instantly wish I hadn't.

      The hotel...the entire freaking thing...was covered in GIANT worms. Worms that were boring through the walls and coming back out to get us.

      I unlock my car door...But my friend has been seized by one of the worms!

      I grab a (convenient) blowtorch and blast the worms away. We pile in the car, and the hotel EXPLODES and leaves behind a giant mushroom cloud.


      We drive into the city, where nearly half of the population is infested. We decide to gather some healthy individuals so we can band together and fight them off.

      We kill masses of parasitic worm people, until I lock eyes with a girl sitting on a small set of stairs with a few other people. She has curly red hair, and looks to be in her 20s.

      She instantly gets up and rushes over to us. She attacks skillfully and we realize that she is the creator of the parasitic worm invasion. If we can kill her, this madness can end.

      Once we finish her off, her skill shrivels and we find a key in her heart. It looks as if someone stabbed it into her. We wonder what the key unlocks.

      Zukin or Zukin?

      I'm at Joann Fabrics. I'm deciding whether I should cosplay Queen Zukin or Evil Zukin. Evil Zukin is cuter by miles, but I really like the story behind Queen Zukin. I have trouble deciding.

    11. Meshuggah/Living Quarters (Task of the Month!)

      by , 07-24-2011 at 05:58 PM
      24.07.2011
      Meshuggah/Living Quarters (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Lucid task of the month!

      I just have a bunch of words scribbled on the paper, and I'm not sure what order all of it came in, so bear with me.

      "fish, increase, portal, piano, this is art, something I can't read written here..., sho(?), clock, hotel, keys, Berta (two & a half men), 3am, dog, never, spin, ghetto bitches, scared shitless, massive clock, time"

      Bolded so nobody mistakes that word during my swearing spree.


      It was a false awakening. There was a glow-in-the-dark thread shaking at one end of my room, while whatever was shaking it was blocked by a pillar just at corner of my bed by my right foot. There was an extremely ugly old lady sitting next to me, and it was very dark. I felt calm, and just closed my eyes and went back to sleep. Now that I think of it, it was my room from Fayetteville, not here in Albuquerque.

      There's some dream here, not sure what. I'm in my music room here in my apartment, except there are pianos on both sides and there's a line of drum cymbals above each piano. "Dad... we only have one piano."
      Boom. Lucid.

      I sit down and both these pianos disappear, replaced by one in front of me, whereas my my chair is moved back in order to allow space for the piano between it and my computer desk. I being to play it in the upper octaves in the key of C.







      All the notes are in C, but in no way is it playing what I push. There is an excessive amount of hammer noise as if I were playing an acoustic piano, but thank god there was no chorus effect to it. Some of the keys to the left of my hands were pushing themselves.

      Another false awakening. I look and see the same thread, same pillar, and same old hag. Wait wait wait, I'm still dreamining.

      The thread ends up being attached to one of my Nike SB shoes, which is multi-colored with a white/charcoal base, a turqoise check and turqoise laces. The shoe is hopping around as if it has a life of its own. At this point, I am instantly scared shitless as it hops toward my bed. "Wait a minute.." I thought. "This is a dream. He can't hurt me." And I was no longer scared. The old hag never moved, and I never interacted with her.






      Yeah, she was that ugly.

      Somewhere in here it is no longer nighttime and I'm out of bed. Don't remember this bit.

      I'm in my living room. Well, not mine, but a very nice glass-walled bit on the edge of an ocean cliff. Think of the DirecTV commerical.







      Shelves are mounted to the wall at some points. I can't describe this apartment as it would take me days to communicate it. But on these shelves was a giant alarm clock (the one I just bought yesterday at Best Buy.) The text isn't changing.

      My dad is out on the balcony hanging over the cliff drinking a beer. I'm still lucid at this point and want to try another goal of mine: "open a portal."

      I try to use telepathic powers but this does not work. I then think of the wall as only a dream and non-solid and try to jump through it. I think I would have had much better success if I turned around so I wasn't looking at the wall before I jumped.

      I then tried thinking of the molecules, and the gaps in between them. I CHARGED at full speed. Thunk. No such luck.

      I leave the apartment and walk out. Turns out there is no door, but the giant party room rolls into the lobby of the most extravagent hotel I've ever seen. I was on the 45th floor. The whole thing was open in the center with the walkways around the edges, a circular building.

      I soon learned that my new house was inside an apartment and was still under construction, thus no door. It also appeared to me that the ocean was only where the balcony was, and all the other ocean views through glass were illusions.

      There's a skip of no recall. Some chubby girl with black hair, your typical fat prep, was reaching in the fridge. Charlie sheen said "assist you in a sec."
      "What?"
      "Berta!"
      Berta: "Pfft. Right. "
      Prep: "Oh bitch what da fuck?"
      -ensue ghetto argument-


      I'm in a dark room with red lighting and red carpet. A couple Ibanez RG2228 guitars are laid out on racks around me.







      I was with Michel from Meshuggah. Yup. He was giving me a death glare with his hands out away from him walking towards me, as if possessed.








      Wait, something tells me this dream isn't over.


      Another awakening, this time for real. I roll over and... WTF. It's only 3:03 AM. I went to sleep at 1:10, and I remember looking at my clock at 1:40 and spending forever trying to enter SP. I must be seriously deprived. Yet I slept 9 hours yesterday and napped for two. I've been getting 8 hours a night. hmm..

      Nope, not a dream.



      I never went through any doors in this dream. I've been trying to RC every time I pass a door as they appear in virtually every dream. Somehow this is my only lucid in almost a year and yet it has no dreamsigns.

      I think the lucid portion was ten to fifteen minutes long.

    12. 9th attempt- It'sMEE (Emma)'s dream

      by , 07-24-2011 at 04:51 PM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      It'sMEE (Emma)'s Dream

      The alarm goes off at 3:27am. I switch it off and drop my phone onto my bed, and drift back to sleep. As soon as my eyes close, I shoot straight back up. I have the feeling I should be somewhere, but I can't quite remember where. I remember my phone went off, because I wanted to try WILD, but I look about my bed and just can't find the phone. Then I remember where I'm supposed to be. I look at my hand, because that's where I wrote the name of the place; 'Chichen Itza' It says, but a little bit has rubbed off. When I look again, all of the writing is there, so I do the nose plug RC... Of course, I'm dreaming. I get out of bed, and I'm magically dressed, my pyjamas are neatly folded on my bed, which appears to have made it's self. I walk up to the door and visualise the Chichen Itza pyramid and tell myself it's on the other side of the door. I slowly open the door with my eyes closed. I can feel a breeze in my face, but it's a warm breeze. So I open my eyes. Yes, there it is, the old dark pyramid. I feel like climbing up it, but look at my hand again to remind me what I'm supposed to be doing. The doorway behind me has gone, but that doesn't really matter so I hardly notice and run up to the pyramid. The light is at the top, so I know someone is or has been here already just I can't see anyone. I hear voices on the other side so I run round there. I round the corner, expecting to see at least two people, because it sounded not like an argument but more of a discussion, but there had to be at least two people so I'm really surprised when I see that there's nobody there. I hear voices just around the corner again, so I dash around there. Now the voices have moved to the opposite side of the pyramid. The voices get louder and quieter and keep moving, but I never see who's talking. Eventually, they sound like they're at the top, so I practically cry out. The voices begin to laugh instead, and I'm sure they're laughing at me. I begin to climb to the top. When I'm there, I'm standing in the light, which is so bright Ican't see. The voices are gone now, so I just sit down for a while, waiting for them to come back. By now I'm so frustrated that I jump off the top. I find myself in bed. I do an RC and I'm awake, but the scary thing is is that the time is only 3:28am. I fall asleep and remember no more dreams that night.
    13. Trouble at Dakota's, Strange Lucid Moment, and Some Others

      Dream - Lucid

      I was at Dakota's house at night. I was the only one there (his aunt and uncle had gone on vacation. Dakota had too, but he went somewhere different). I was sitting in his room (didn't look like his real room, it was a lot bigger), watching TV. Dakota had told me I could chill there while everyone was away, though technically, I wasn't supposed to be there.

      I had fallen asleep, and I woke up. I heard car doors slamming outside, so I figured I probably needed to leave, so I headed towards the door of his room.

      All the sudden, a recording of Dakota's voice boomed over a loudspeaker. It said something about his aunt and uncle coming home. I started to move more quickly towards the back door of the house so I could get out before his aunt and uncle caught me.

      It was too late, though. I walked outside, and there they were. I was very ashamed of myself. I shouldn't have been there. I went to my car. Dakota's uncle came up to me. I said to him
      "I want to redeem myself in your eyes. I'm sorry."
      He seemed pleased with that.

      I then drove off through his neighborhood. It was lit only by the lights of the houses.


      ~

      I was again at Dakota's house. It was morning, and Dakota and I had been asleep in sleeping bags on the floor. His head was facing my head.

      His Aunt then came in with a bunch of kids. They sat at the kitchen table. That morning, they were leaving for Oklahoma. I got up and walked by the table. The kids were all playing Scrabble. There were also toys on the table, though I can't remember specifics.

      They eventually filed out the door and got in their red mini van (can't remember the type). They came back a little later because they forgot something.


      ~

      I was laying down on some sort of bed or table. An Indian-looking man with dark skin and a black mustache had a small buzz saw blade attached to a handle above my neck, though it wasn't moving. There was a dial ingrained in the left side of my neck that the buzz saw's blades fit perfectly into, and the man was going to help me by using the saw on the dial. I'm not sure what it was he was supposed to be helping me with, though. I think I was hurt or ill, and it was supposed to help me to heal.

      At first, he jokingly got out a HUGE buzz saw and started using it on my neck. It hurt, and I kept telling him to stop. He stopped and laughed as he took the small buzz saw and gently started to use it to turn the dial in my neck. It felt a little uncomfortable. The man was very kind to me as he did this. He talked to me gently, though I can't remember what he said.


      ~

      I was on the beach at night with my mom. We had our cat, Pounce, who is very ill in waking life. I'm not sure why we had her, but she got away from us and ran all over the beach. My mom told me to get her. She ran too fast, however. She then ran down some stairs into a men's restroom. At first, my mom wasn't sure we should go in there to get her because it was the men's room, but I convinced her that we could. We went in there after the cat, checking all the stalls.

      ~

      I was in the car when I became lucid by counting my fingers, though I wasn't totally convinced yet. I confirmed it by making extra fingers appear out of my hands.

      Then, I hung out the passenger's side window naked as the car drove itself. I felt the wind rush past me as I went. Why I decided to do this with my lucid dream is beyond me.

    14. #9 attempt-It'sMEE (Emma)'s dream

      by , 07-24-2011 at 02:11 PM (The Epic Adventures Of Emma in Her Own Mind.)
      The alarm goes off at 3:27am. I switch it off and drop my phone onto my bed, and drift back to sleep. As soon as my eyes close, I shoot straight back up. I have the feeling I should be somewhere, but I can't quite remember where. I remember my phone went off, because I wanted to try WILD, but I look about my bed and just can't find the phone. Then I remember where I'm supposed to be. I look at my hand, because that's where I wrote the name of the place; 'Chichen Itza' It says, but a little bit has rubbed off. When I look again, all of the writing is there, so I do the nose plug RC... Of course, I'm dreaming. I get out of bed, and I'm magically dressed, my pyjamas are neatly folded on my bed, which appears to have made it's self. I walk up to the door and visualise the Chichen Itza pyramid and tell myself it's on the other side of the door. I slowly open the door with my eyes closed. I can feel a breeze in my face, but it's a warm breeze. So I open my eyes. Yes, there it is, the old dark pyramid. I feel like climbing up it, but look at my hand again to remind me what I'm supposed to be doing. The doorway behind me has gone, but that doesn't really matter so I hardly notice and run up to the pyramid. The light is at the top, so I know someone is or has been here already just I can't see anyone. I hear voices on the other side so I run round there.

    15. 9th Shared Dreaming Attempt- WhiteWind's attempt

      WhiteWind's Dream

      DC/Dreamer chat
      Made it to chichen itza at paragraph 3

      lucid but don't remember how. At school and walk down stairs. See a group of people sitting at a table. "Are you dreamers?" "No."He smiles. I believe him, but begin to think, "But what are you then?" He stares at me. Shout "This is a dream!" All the DCs turn and look at me. I feel my energy being sucked out, I can't speak. There is a power coming from them that I couldn't fight with my own power. Begin to feel and intent that I won't hurt them, that I love them. They begin to take their death stare off me and start smiling and laughing. I can move now and start backing up, feeling good. A guy gives me the peace sign and I try to give it back, but my energy is still low and can't move my fingers up.

      Run into a guy, short black hair, grey hipster attire. He is holding a pencil at me threateningly. I'll find you. Not now but later when you're afraid." He tries to stab me, but I avoid it. I walk away, but he pursues me. I'm chased for a while, not wanting to negatively confront my DCs after the previous event. Go down stairs, fall down a slide and end up in an underwater room. The guy slides down after me, pencil extended and drives it into me. Doesn't really hurt. " You don't have as much control as you did in the dream on the 11th." (September/July) "Don't remember that date, but I'll look at that entry" This dream was very vivid, but I didn't have as many powers as some recent dreams "Why don't we hang out" trying to settle him down. "Let's play some basketball or something okay?" He agrees and I exit the room under a flap in the back. In the ocean next to a ladder. The guy swims to it first and gets out. As I approach, a shark silhouette comes in between. I'm bitten, but just throw the shark off my leg. Climb the ladder and notice a beached orca. I'm outside the quad at school and approach the guy to follow through on my basketball offer, but remember Chichen Itza

      Visualize the temple and start walking up the stairs. See a friend We're in Mexico." Come upon a large rain forest area, with waterfalls running down a cliff. And there it is: Chichen Itza perfect form. I run to it and see many people sitting around on the top of it. "Are there any dreamers here!?" I get closer and notice they are all wearing headphones. I pick a guy out, he has curly red/blond hair and reminds me of a videogamer. He takes his headphones off. "Are you a dreamer? Are you dreaming?" "No." "How do you know if you don't do a reality check?" Look I have 10 fingers" "I have 5" "Now look, I have 7. Odd and Prime ." He gets it, but doesn't react, he leaves my sight and vanishes. There is a black man and woman sitting at the table. They were talking/ laughing the whole time I was talking to the gamer. "Are you dreamers?" Shakes his head, I notice he is a DC I talked to earlier. There is an old man with long grey hair sitting in the corner. A woman approaches. She seems like a caretaker of the place. "Has anyone from Dreamviews showed up here?" They sometimes meet over that ledge there." I don't see to where she is referring. Want to check it out, but decide to leave a message to anyone who comes by later. "Do you have a marker?" I find a red gell pen. Go to write a large symbol on the table cloth, but notice there is writing all over it. Im pulling at it, trying to find a large clean spot to draw the glyph. "Are you taking care of children?" "No" "Sometimes magicians show up here." I laugh and look up at her, smiling. Find a clean white section and draw a simple symbol on it. It doesn't turn out very well and I try a few more times but am never satisfied. Find a clean spot and make one final attempt in large strokes. Get up and start to leave. I notice a very peculiar object in the corner, kind of light a decorated white Christmas tree, but definitely one of those things you can only see in dreams.

      Attachment 2387

      It got dark out, so I sat down at the table. The scene morphed to my aunts house (common LD environment), and I'm leaning against the window. No one is around and I feel a little fear, but mainly lonely. "Nomad?" I call out into the dark. Ya Nomad, you are kind of the father of shared dreaming in DV I here knocking at the door and Nomad walks in. He has less than shoulder length hair. I walk up and shake his hand. "What's up?" feel my energy shaking and worry I might wake, so I try to scream a word. (like a password, even though I know Nomad is not really into that idea. I'll keep what I said to myself, although I had a hard time saying it and you looked like he didn't hear) "Andy hurt mom." "...Andy hurt mom?" "What did you say?" "That's what you said." He starts walking towards me, looking upset. People do that, and it's wrong." Felt like he was referring to guessing what people said. I'm apologetic and then wake.
