WAKING LIFE DREAMING LUCID
BOLD IF IT FEELS PARTICULARLY SIGNIFICANT

From 4/22/11

Computer screen
Trying to do something important
Black screen with white lettering popped up. A warning. A long, deep warning.

I’m not sure if I felt very concerned about the warning, it may have seemed superficial emotionally. I’ve waited too many days to look back on it though, to really remember.

>It's 2012, everyone now knows the exact minute the world is going to end, which is just about to happen
>it's daytime, me, my brother and a couple friends are waiting for the world to end in my backyard.
>the rift in the sky tears open and the rest of the sky goes black, like night time. the rift glows a purple/black colour and UFOs fly through
>the aliens land as i run off into an underground tunnel system or something, they have killed or taken all humans.
>i find underground a couple of people who have also escaped, they kind of remind me of the rebel's from half life 2
>we make our way through the tunnels to the white house, (even though i live in australia) and we hide in the president's bunker.
>there's not much to the bunker, it looks kind of like the overseer's office from fallout: 3 and new vegas, the middle desk opens and reveals a secret stairway down underground, there are hundreds of computers and scientists down here.
>aliens break through

Today, I had my first lucid dream.

I had just been in another dream and was in a dark, mysterious room thinking about it.
I was slowly walking towards a huge glass window, which took up the entire wall opposite to me.

Suddenly I began thinking, "Hey wait.. What if this is a dream.
I should reality check". So I plugged my nose and and did an RC.
I could breathe!.. However, my dream consciousness believed this was normal..
So I was not yet lucid.

All of a sudden, I realized something was strange.
I looked out the huge glass window and EVERYTHING was underwater!
All these amazing colors, lights and calming ripples!
Across from me was a hotel building, built on the sand of the ocean floor.

This is when I realized I was dreaming.

As soon I became lucid, a faint, peaceful song was playing in the background.
After a few days of searching, I found it is almost identical to the first few seconds of the song "Lisa Miskovsky - Still Alive".

I was way too excited, and things began to become hazy.
Things were swirling very fast, and I was losing the dream.
I tried rubbing my hands together to attempt to stabilize the dream, but when I opened my eyes, I was looking at the ceiling of my room..

My dream recall is terrible and I'm searching for ways to improve it (trying apple juice tonight!) but I can remember a few dreams that have stuck with me from when I was alot younger so I guess I'll just enter those for now .

?/?/?? - A rather simple dream
When I was around 6-8 I had a dream that I was in Jurrasic park and my old freinds (Alex and Kyle) and my brother were there.. Well they started to enter the Park and then a T-rex came out from the woods behind me and ate my head off . I woke up shortly after ._.

?/?/?? - Zombreh
When I was around 10 I had a dream that I was driving home from somewhere to a house I had never seen before that was perched on a cliff. The truck I was driving was a 96 Toyota Tacoma ( My dad's truck that he got before I was born and still has ) and when I got out of the truck I went inside that house and it looked like a mish-mash of me and a few freind's houses. Well when I entered the kitchen there were zombies.. EVERYWHERE! I ran outside and got back in the truck and I couldn't start it for about 5 seconds but then I started to back up as fast as I could the zombies smashed through the garage door and started running towards me at around 30 MPH.
I was driving away as fast as I could and then I woke up.

So I went to bed last night planning on WILDing, I was horribly sick.... Coughing spitting out shit. So I didn't expect to even have a normal dream but I did.

It starts off at the mall where I run into this guy from my high school years that was ALWAYS the most hated guy in the school. He picked on everyone and started fights quite often. I accidentally ran into him he then started saying rude things ," Hey watch the fuck where your going." I said something tough back to him because I didn't wanna look dumb in front of my friends. Anyway he then told me he was going to kill me and would find me later.

Next I go into the candy store of course and buy those like 2 pound bags of candy.... I remember it had like jolly ranchers, laffy taffys, and other fruity stuff in it. We then leave the mall into the parking garage when I was informed this bully that i met earlier was waiting for me and already got my other friend. We ran to my car, at this point i was feeling quite anxious, I plugged in my ipod and listened to some Necro and some other horrorcore. The guy never came for some reason so we just left and ended up driving to a downtown looking area like Seattle.

While in Seattle my friend Nicole recommended that I get a tattoo (I had the feeling of being drunk right about this part). I was like hell ya I'll get one right now so I went in the tattoo parlor I see this guy with dread locks and pure white skin he says he'll give me a cool tattoo from a band that I like. So he puts the needle down and starts doing it, there was moderate pain but after a while it was fine, he then proceeded to shine a blue light on the tattoo once it was finished which hurt like hell I jumped and then he proceeded again after telling me to stay still. The tattoo was on my knuckles and traveled slightly onto the top of my hand and a little bit over the right side (It went underneath my hand also). My hand looked completely normal in this dream and I looked at it for quite a long time ;x

I'll stop there

Okay, can't remember my dreams. When I was little though, I used to have lots and lots of dreams of witches. Here are three I remember ranging from the ages of 5-10.

Castle Witch

I was laying in a double bed with my older sister. She was fast asleep, but I was staring at this huge poster of a castle that covered the entire wall. The door opened to the castle and out came this witch-like lady. I kept my eyes partially closed, in the dream, so she wouldn't know I was awake. She walked around the bed looking at me and my sister, I guess to make sure we were asleep. Then she touched this cat figurine laying on the bedside tabe. She left the bedroom and went to the kitchen. I got up and snuck after her. When I came out to the kitchen, she was sitting at a boothlike table with my two sisters. They were laughing with her and having fun, but I knew she had cast a spell. So I ran and got my parents and they seemed to think the lady was crazy too. That's it.

Dorito Witch

I was at my grandparents trailer house. I was running around with a bunch of cousins (like we did on the holidays) and we were all lining up to jump on my grandma's bed. The bathroom was at the very end of the hallway next to the bedroom. I was walking to go jump on the bed when I heard voices in the bathroom. I crept inside the bathroom and found a witch (hat and everything) and my dad. The witch was feeding my dad nacho cheese doritos, but not through his mouth. She had a little part of his back cut open and was stuffing them in. >.>

Male Witch

I was at my cousins house and we were running around playing outside. We started to run down to the cellar, the door flew open before we reached it. And inside I could see a lab with lots of green glowing test tubes. There was a man witch and the color of his skin was also green.

Just felt like sharing since I couldn't remember my dreams from last night. < 4hours of sleep =(

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Good morning! That was a cool night. I had been working alot on my awareness and RC's during the day, and did some mantras just before bed. It resulted in two lucids and the last one was the longest I've ever had. Too bad my recall wasn't that great, also I wasn't thinking clearly all the time. Might have been why the dream was so long.

23.00: Sleep

05.10: Teleportation MILD
I'm walking uphill toward my appartment. I'm with my friend Felix and Monica. We stop outside of a building and I spot a cherry tree. I pick a few. "I wonder if I can use these for payment in those gumball machines" I say and hold up the hard seeds. We enter the building, a great lobby appears but there's no one around. We continue walking further into the what seems like a mall and arrive at the bottom of an escalator and infront of a few rows of clothes.

I get lucid and look around. There's people running around but I don't pay them any attention. I have my task firmly set in mind, teleportation. (I have been trying to teleport using portals, since that hasn't worked really, I decided to try spinning) I start spinning with my arms out from my body. It's not going as fast as I thought it would, but soon everything's a blur. I start imagining touching jungle leaves. I spin around for a few seconds and everything goes black, but my feeling is still there.

Suddenly I can feel something, it's like wood. My vision returns to me and I'm touching the walls inside of a small room. The walls are made of bamboo. "Well, I guess this will do" I say to myself. I look out of the window and there's a pool of water outside. A wall is on the other side and going along right next to it is a narrow pathway. People starts showing up, in a long line.

They start running and if I don't stop them, they will get me! I pick up a gun lying on the floor, some kind of automatic weapon and shoot away. There's no sound, no recoil, nothing. But people start falling down. I do this for a while, alternating weapons, shooting invisible shots. Some weapons are very effective, some not very so. Weapons in dreams never works properly...

05.10: Being a douche DEILD/MILD
I'm with my coworker Björn and some other guy in the middle of the street in some dusty town. (I can't remember what we've just done, but I've got a feeling the dream has already been going on for quite a while) Björn is about to wake up to re-join the dream, being lucid. "Do it during a nap, and you'll end up in REM right away. But hurry up, I'll probably wake up in a while" I tell him. He stands still for a while, nothing happens.

"I killed myself once with a sword to the chest to wake up. Only how can you be really sure you won't die for real? You might not be dreaming" I say. "Ok, getting out of a dream is hard" he says. "Dude, if you know you're in a dream, you're already lucid!" I say. Duh.

I slap his face to prove my point. "See?" I try to slap him again and again, he deflects my blows grinning like a fool. "Now slap me, it won't hurt". "Are you sure?" he asks uncertainly. "Yeah man, trust me, just slap me" I say. His hand is about to hit my face, but I easily dodge it to the side and jump back. "Hah!" I exclaim and stretch out my hand, intending to lift him up with telekinesis. It doesn't work. "God damnit!". I flip my hand and raise it, Björn's foot starts going upwards aswell.

"You always do that!" the guy next to me tells me as Björn's hanging upside down, struggling with the invisible cords while laughing. "The problem with Lucid dreams is recall. I mean everything looks so real and feels so real, it's just that I won't be able to remember it as clearly" I tell the other guy and he agrees with me. I look at my hand, I've got seven fingers and I grip the railing infront of me.

My brother's friend Tom appears out of nowhere. I feel like screwing around with him and lift him up with telekinesis. I throw him around gently and hold him upside down for a while. He tries to escape into a house but I catch up with him before he reaches the elevator. I make him fly outside again. Rinse and repeat. Tom is starting to get really mad and I have to keep him from coming at me now. "Can you cut it the fuck out?!" he yells at me. I put him down. "You've been doing this for twenty minutes, isn't it enough already?!"

I check my memory, damn he's right. I have been doing this for a very long time, and I feel bad. "I'm sorry man, I didn't think that people would care in a Lucid Dream. "Well, now you do!" he tells me angrily. I feel sorry for him and I feel like an ass. I pat him on the back and try to comfort him from the frightening experience. His back has some strange slime on it. "Hey Matte watch out!" he tells me and grabs my arm, pulling me away from the building. I look back and realise it's about to come down. A second later the balconies starts collapsing and there's only rubble left of the building.

05.10: Wake up

Amount of sleep: 6 hours

Supplements: None

That's it! Awesome lucids in the middle of the week. That's what I'm talking about. A bit foggy recall, I know the second dream had way more in the beginning, but I know I had a good time back then, that's what matters!

Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

I had this dream quite a number of times when I was about five and six. I didn't watch the Terminator, or anything related to that at the time. But I always remembered waking up in terror. It was sort of like a night terror because by the time my parents had gotten me calmed down, I couldn't remember what the dream was about. I remembered pictures of things happening. But I could never remember what it was. I didn't know. Over time though, more memories have come back, and I've been able to just vaguely explain it. It'd honestly be easier if I could draw it, but I never have. I'm going to start doing that though.

Anyway, I have always thought of this dream as symbolic. It stood for something. I know it did. I've had psychic/pre-cognitive dreams in the past, and I still do.

Anyway, here it goes.


First Time I had Dream:

I was sitting on something. I don't know what it was, and I was holding something rather large. I was in a city some place, because I remember people being there. It was all quiet. But something was wrong and I remember going around and trying to tell people something was wrong and to be "ready". And then everything happened at once. There was this flash of blue light and all hell broke loose. It was like an explosion or something, because everything was slightly tinted after that. I remember panicking because there was this massive crowd of people running for their lives all around me and I could get no where. Then I saw a face. I don't know who it was. Just a face. I could hear a man's voice shouting orders into I guess a microphone or something. He wasn't acting all macho like a drill sergeant, but by his voice you could tell he meant business. Then I woke up screaming.



Second Time:

It started out differently.

I was sitting in a building. There were no windows whatsoever, and everything was made out of conrete. I wasn't supposed to be there, but I was. I remember there were also people running back and forth in white coats. I knocked something over and it broke, and one of the white coated men started flipping out on me. Then that ended and I remember running in a panicked fury to a different room, where another white coat was going to press a red button. I started flipping out, trying to stop him from pressing the red button, something about destroying the world. He did anyway, and then all of what happened the first time, happened all over again. And I woke up screaming.


I had the first dream one more time. And then it was it. Since then though, I've had dreams of volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, massive hurricanes, huge tornadoes, and a Holocaust type incident which involved Asian people coming in and sending people to work camps, making some of them go to war, and rationing our food and water (no they were not Chinese. I don't know who they were).

i strangely hade this dream before near the beginning of the year that i didnt even remember until about 4 days ago i was dreaming. this dream has to do with a church that looked allmost like a classical old time bar but hade a square carved in the ground around the whole thing and hade water flowing through it . very bright good looking water. in the last dream i hade about this is could transfer from heaven to earth back and fourth i wrote my experiences in the dream the last time. now this time he shows me the paper i wrote my experiences on in the dream with im sure the same words if i can recall what i read. it said "acknowledge-being" on it he said to me "you were a good writer" and in my dream my friend was there he reminded me how to do that transfer he put his hand in the position and i quickly remembered when i tried to do it everything went blurry and i stopped doing it then. i dont recall after that.

I was in a classroom we made a circle out of the desk to make a space in the middle of the classroom there was about 24 desk and everyone filled up the seats i think 2 or 3 were left. all of a sudden these african tall people got up and went into the middle of the space. they stuck there tongues out and there tongues nearly hit the floor and they put rubber bands in the middle of them it was like a form of dance. they started swinging there tongues like a rope holding it with there bare hands they slapped there tongues together moveing in a circle when they stopped everyone applauded including myself..there were about 4 preformances and then the"5th" performance.. i stood up and went foward suddenly my tongue shot out looking like theres with tattoo's on it the tongues came in the colors of brown tan and pink mine was tan with a rubber band in the middle and black tattoo's like flame tattoo's i hade like 5 rubberbands in the upper part of my tongue over crossing somehow i knew what i was doing i grabbed my tongue did that dance after my performance my tongue didnt go back in so i walked happily while people applauded then i saw this girl i liked at school. all i did was stare in her eyes and she looked in my eyes looked away and looked back. right when i got pretty much to my seat i woke up.

Dream 1: Early Chaotic dream

I am in a car with a few other people looking at the destruction in the south from the tornados.
Driving around I realize I have taken some pictures of naked women on my camera and keep thinking about seeing what I have.

Then I am before a big TV screen trying to find my pictures. I then see that my mom has bought me some magazines but I’m creep out because they are sex mags.

I am fiddling with my camera and notice that the house is so big and that I am on the second floor and there is snow outside on the roof. I think it looks really nice outside covered in white snow, I then fall out the window but oddly no glass broke. I slide down the snow-covered roof but a friend [dream friend] comes out to help me and he slides around too, we are having fun. It is nice and cool outside and I have no fear of falling at all and then find myself on the ground walking through the snow.

Dream 2: Legal Group Suicide

There are a couple of vans with tinted windows pulling into a parking lot in back a group of businesses well out of public sight. As everyone piled out of the vans, I felt sad for them since they all had decided to die here today.

Apparently, there was a law against being in public view while committing suicide, not that the dead would care but there was a company that helped them kill themselves and their people here wore white medical coats and they all had different monitoring equipment. The people that were about to end their lives looked healthy to me but I got that they were supposed to be healthy enough to fully commit the act themselves.

The “patients” all sat around in a rough circle in folding chairs or standing, all with an attendant by their sides. All the attendants have the deadly agents, a white pill and a clear liquid in a small cup, there is also a water cooler set up to wash it all down if they choose. One of the attendants, an older woman walks to the center of the circle and says “One last chance to celebrate who they are!” [by this act]. Whenever they were ready they could now take their poison pill and drink the poison drink, some went right too it while some others talked, a few cried. Then they started to fall asleep for the last time.

I took one of the cardboard boxes they had but wouldn’t need now to a recycle bin. It was like a street in Manhattan at night in a dirty place under an elevated railroad [I don’t think they have those elevated rails in NY anymore].

A NY city taxi drove by to see if I wanted a cab but I didn’t.

I put the box in the recycle bin and there were three guys working there and they were fooling around with each other laughing. They started to dare each other and fool around by throwing pieces of their clothes at each other. Then they dared each other, who was going to take off their pants in public! While they were both saying “no you !” I saw a silver coin on the ground and picked it up and it looked like an Olympic coin because it had the Olympic circles on it [not sure if there is such a thing in rl].

Dream 3: Doorways

Lucid

I am in some kind of government built building like a school and the halls are empty. I realize this is a dream when I think of how boring this hallway is.

I think about making a doorway [I have read some posts about how some people who love creating doorways. Unfortunately these are not any of my true goals but for some reason they are really hard to recall in the dream.] and I make a doorway using my 2 hands to frame it and “shoot” it at the wall.

I am actually amazed that it worked!

I walk over to it my mouth hanging open and open the door only to see there is another door behind it! It’s a little white door with locks on it. I remember that I have to expect something in order to have something appear so I think ‘I don’t know what I want, surprise me!’
The door opens to a dark area like to a basement and without the slightest hesitation I jump in and pull the door closed. The door is now locked and I get a feeling to look in back of me and I see people walking in a hallway.
I’m loving this, the doorways are working and creating new pathways that can be all over the place!

I am walking out into a tourist trap of a store with all kinds of tee shirts, shot glasses, and local stones. I went to look out of the front doors but seeing just a parking lot I decided to create some wormholes.

I didn’t have any idea about what they were supposed to do so they didn’t work and were just colored circles on the carpet, one was actually deformed in the shape of a fish! The DCs were looking at this spectacle with some amusement one saying, “entertaining at least” with a big smile on his face.

I concentrated and shot a doorway with my hands to the floor and bam there was a perfect but small doorway on the floor. Again amazed, I knelt beside the little doorway and the other DCs gathered around. I concentrated to see something in this doorway and opened it, inside was a gray metal box! It had a few different compartments each with their own latches. I pulled it out and in one I pulled out a multicolored rock with a lot of little box-like crystals, it was very fragile and crumbly. I showed it to the bald shop owner so that maybe he could sell it but he was shaking his head at its lack of durability, I said “maybe a couple of bucks?”
I put it back and went for the big compartment in the center and pulled out 2 heavy and huge (about a foot long) crystals! They were clear quartz and had tiny flecks of gold in then. I figured they were worth maybe $200 each! [actually I’m sure in rl it would be 10 times that.] I decided not to put them back in the box just in case they disappear in there.

Then I see a waist high stone jar, big enough for a person to fit in, carved out of a brownish stone but sanded so thin it is like it’s made out of tan translucent glass. I tell a DC there “it’s Egyptian”, of course made for the pharaohs. I tap my finger on it and am surprised to hear it the vibration ring in a deep tone.

Non Lucid:
I was first in school, but then everything then just turned black. Then when I actually could see again, me and everyone in my school just warped to some sand island (similar to the photo) but it seemed normal so I decided to explore it with my friends were just playing around, and it seemed like we were waiting for something but I didn't know what.

I was woken up for school

Today was interesting because I had 1: My first actually induced LD and not just random, and 2: My first DEILD!

Note: I had been constantly waking up in the middle of this night.

Dream 1:

I've just fallen back asleep and am in a really large hotel that is grey and full of elderly people. It must have arount 200 floors and is set up similarly to the Marriott Marquee in Times Square, New York. The only problem is there are random staircases leading up and down floors and the sides to the central area arent guarded with railing to keep people from falling to their deaths (I remember thinking of this as unsafe). I enter a room after jumping over a span from one side to another when I wake up. I decide to try to reenter the dream and within three seconds I am back in the dream, except Lucid. I immediately get extremely excited, and try to stay calm but my excitement builds enormously beyond control (and I mean ridiculously excited and I couldn't stop it) until I wake up.

This was my second lucid dream to end from the sheer excitement of becoming lucid.

I am watching a video on my Zune about McGruff the crime dog, he's helping me take a bite out of crime. He is warning me about the dangers of dream gangs in my neighborhood. He says that they are going to come and snatch my dreams. I went out to the car carrying a big blanket with my earbuds in. My focus was parked on a side street. .I wrapped the blanket around me as I looked for my car. There was a group of women around and they were looking for their cars too. It was nighttime on the street. I found my car and put some weezer on my zune. I was getting ready to go to sleep when one woman told me not to sleep over there or the gangbangers would find me. I looked back up and saw a bunch of scary dudes prowling all over the cars. That's when the old tan van with the hippy couple pull up and ask me if I need a ride. I said sure.

I get in the van and there's no seats in the back, just a mattress on the bed of the van. The girl is driving and the guy is sitting shotgun. They are singing. I lie down on the mattress and put on the video and try to watch some of it. There is a cartoon oak tree sitting in a meadow with a blue sky. A male voice says "I want to tell you about lucid dreaming. You could be lucid dreaming right now." They ask me if this is my house and I look outside the van. It is. I thank them and I get out of the van.

I walk up to the front door and my key doesn't work. I walk around the back and there's a new cement patio and lots of construction. I see a little girl and I realize that this isn't my house. It starts to rain. A Little blonde girl comes out of a sliding glass door and asks me what I'm doing. I say that I'm just a little lost but please not to tell anybody, I am going to leave as soon as I figure out a way to cover up my Zune and figure out where my house is. I put the zune in my pocket and walk over to my house.

When I get to my house it's morning time. I walk inside the back door and people are sitting in my kitchen around the table laughing and looking at papers. Ed Helms is reading from a list of my lucid dreams and laughing every couple of seconds. I sit at the table and put on my zune again. I see the Tree in the meadow and an apple falls from the tree. The voice speaks. "there are many ways to find out if you are dreaming. You could be dreaming right now" then I wake up.

4-26-2011
This will start off my first dream entry.

I appeared in a spacious store like Walmart, tons of people were walking around me and I had a huge sense of anxiety around them. I was with my friend CJ, Nicole, Madi, and her mom. CJ is only about 16 years old and is Nicole's little cousin, yet I remember him puking in the store like he was drunk or something. Anyway I'm pretty sure Nicole's mom was buying us alcohol... doesn't surprise me this is a common event in our lives. The second we walked out the door I ended up landing in a car with about seven people, it was a small car yet it felt huge. I was with six of my friends one being Marissa. We were on our way to the movies on a highway with no other cars, we headed out into the middle of nowhere, it looked like a desert. Finallllly we came up to this huge movie theater with a few other people there. Marissa was smoking a cig like always before we went inside, no one was saying a word (That I was aware of) Marissa all of the sudden reaches over and burns me with her cig on my arm. I jumped away quickly and said what the hell do you think your doing, complete silence as she takes another drag and everyone ignores me completely. She finally does it again and as I try to walk away she walks towards me and pushes harder, I finally just said Marissa that actually feels pretty good.... I like the feeling of that. So she does it again and then I woke up.

Not a very exciting first dream entry but kinda strange....
