    3. Alien abductions and getting stranded on the moon...

      by , 03-16-2011 at 09:33 PM (DDD17's Dream dramas! (mostly...))
      I was at my 6th form, everyone was there-even my sister.

      It's been established that we're being taken somewhere by these aliens, they're pretty much what you'd stereotypically expect one to look like-human like figure, grey skin and huge head with bulging black eyes and jeez they're so bossy.

      We all have to stand and listen to them in the cafe,
      "You might want to empty your bladder now because where we're going and on our spacecraft there are no toilets", one of them explains.

      what the hell?... I patiently tell them that humans need to go to the toilet otherwise we could get very ill. They ignore this and tell me to hurry up. I go to the toilets because I really need a wee, the loos are really packed. After I go and find my sister, I don't like not knowing where she is. One of the aliens tells us to go wait in the dining hall (the cafe) ready for boarding the ship. For some reason we are now on the moon- the aliens must have moved the building while we were in the loos.

      My sister and I decide to go to our cabin and get some belongings before we leave. We have little possessions as the aliens dislike us to own things. I open my drawer and put a lipcil made out of syrup into my shoulder bag, I was trying to be practical because I get very sore lips. I find a ribbon and pack that too, to remind me of Earth (I don't know why), I leave my favourite stuffed toy dog. I also leave my dream diary, if I take it with me they may confiscate it and realise I've written about them, better to leave it for someone else to find, then maybe they'll track us down again.

      Suddenly we hear a hovering noise, we look out of the window to see the UFOs take off and fly deep into Space... wait a sec they left us behind!... "They forgot us!" I whisper exitedly! We're so happy and relieved...but then hear some footsteps. The door slowly opens and a guy steps through looking postively confused.

      "Um hello?" he says
      "Hi, we're humans, you can take a blood sample as evidence" I say and hold out my arm towards him because I think he's an alien in a humanoid figure and I don't want to get in trouble

      "Um er thanks but not right now" he says, "how come you're here? I thought I was the only human on the moon. I thought I'd sensed some disturbance so came out looking, nearly got lost on the way but I'm glad I found you"

      I explain everything to him.
      "Good thing I found you then. You can come to my house, it's safe there. We need to be quick incase they realise you're missing and come looking for you" We step through the door, cold wind blows moon dust about, similar to sand in a desert. We walk quickly and approach a cheerfully strange house. It a roundish shape, yellowy/orange and made out of some sort of metal. There's complicated piping winding all around it. We go in and are greeted by his friendly wife. The guy tells her our situation. We sit in the front room watching a cartoon about gnomes or something. All the time I'm afraid the aliens are gonna come back. Our two new friends seem to recognise this and suggest we get back to Earth as soon as possible. I suddenly remember my other belongings, particularly my dream diary, which will be important as evidence to people on Earth about what happened. The wife starts preparing for takeoff while us three quickly set off back to the cabin. We find it in good time and my sister and I empty our drawers quickly. I make a smiley face in the drawer with some rubbish as a message to the aliens to show we've outsmarted them.

      We rush back to the house. The other two make sure the door is shut securely. The woman shows us into their bedroom, we put our bags down. The guy sits at a computer desk and pulls some controls out of the wall, the woman shows us some seat belts attached to the wall and tells us to put them on because we’re going to need them. We sit down and strap ourselves in, so does she. The guy straps himself into the controller chair and types some things into the controls. The house moves, I see through the window we’re heading towards another similar looking building. Turns out it’s a rocket type thing. The house connects to it and we’re ready for takeoff.
      It’s an amazing feeling. As we travel faster I feel the gravity pressing me to the wall. Once we’re past takeoff the speed settle down and we’re allowed to take the belts off’ like when you’re on a aeroplane. My sister and I lay on the bed and nap, the woman wakes us up as it’s time to put our seatbelts on for landing. We land in a field in a secluded part of the country. We go into a near building, it’s a secret agency HQ working for the government about things like alien attacks.

      We fill them in on what’s happened and file a report on the missing students. Police then escort us home. We’re driving for a while until we reach home. When back we explain everything to pur worried family, then we all have a picture taken together!

    4. Dance in hell

      , 03-16-2011 at 06:41 PM (Hyu's Adventures)
      non dream - lucid - non lucid

      I'm on Teraluna with Yuya and Liv.
      Liv is here for the first time.
      The gates would usually prevent any demons from getting into the city, but they let her through because
      she has no dark thoughts.

      Even though everyone is super nice to her she's still extremely shy and clearly feels out of place.
      But she's happy to be here.
      We're sitting at the table in front of Yuya's place talking about all kinds of things.
      There's a bowl with sweets on the table, and I keep sneaking stuff from it because everything is so delicious.
      Lemon marzipan surrounded by black chocolate, yum!

      During the conversation I notice that something is on Liv's mind.
      There's something bothering her, she wants to ask something, but she's too shy.
      I offer her a cookie from the bowl.
      Yuya realizes that there's quite a bit of stuff missing from it.

      "Hyu...?"
      "Yeeeees?"

      I chuckle as she throws something at me. (I think it was a hairpin)
      Liv realizes what's going on and laughs out loud.
      There we go, loose some of that shyness.

      "So Liv, what is it you want to ask?"

      She turns red.
      It takes some time to actually convince her to tell me.
      She finally ends up explaining that she is going to a ball.
      She has to for some reason, and her sisters will be there.
      But she's very uncomfortable going there, because it is common for succubi to seduce someone
      rich or powerful to go with them. She doesn't want to do that though.
      She's known for being shy, which is a bit ridiculous since she's a succubus, and she'll be laughed at if she comes without a 'date'.

      "I don't really see where the problem is."
      "But... I don't..."
      "You could just ask someone to go with you, you know."
      "Nobody would go with me..."

      She's not biting, but I can clearly see it in her face.
      She wants to ask me to go with her.

      "You could ask me for example."
      "But..."
      "..."
      "Would you.... go with me? ..."

      "Yes, absolutely."

      Yuya says: "See, that wasn't so hard, was it?"

      "So, where is this ball anyways?"
      "..."
      "... it's in hell."

      Wait, what?
      I look at Yuya. She doesn't seem concerned, so it probably isn't as dangerous as it sounds.
      Whatever, it'll be an adventure, it's probably going to be awesome...


      ... Liv and I are standing in line... to get into hell I suppose?
      I'm wearing a red and white kimono, as is tradition for dragons according to Yuya.
      Liv's dress reminds me a bit of a prom dress, it's cute, it looks nice on her.
      We're at the entrance... it says "Club Hades".
      I ask Liv:

      "Seriously? Hades?"
      "You know him?"
      "No... he... what?"
      "The club is named after it's owner, he's called Hades."

      I find it funny, but Liv obviously doesn't know about Greek mythology.

      The inside of the club is actually quite awesome. It's in a huge cave, and the place is lit up by pools and fountains of lava.
      I hide my energy at first, because there's a lot of demons here, but that quickly attracts the attention of some predators.
      Some bird-like creature looks at me with an appetite.
      I quickly change my aura and emit some energy to show that I'm a dragon.
      The creature quickly looks away.
      I decide to act confident, as if I have nothing to fear here.

      There are all sorts of creatures here, most of them look humanoid.
      Not all of them appear to be demons though, some clearly aren't and some may very well be human.
      During a conversation Liv explains that this club is some sort of a neutral zone.
      Hades is insanely powerful, nobody would dare to cause any kind of trouble here.

      At some point she introduces my to her sisters.
      There's 3 of them, they're all older than Liv, and clearly not as nice as she is.
      They seduced some men to come with them. The men aren't even aware where they are, they're under complete mind control.
      Her sisters are extremely surprised that she's with a dragon.
      The oldest of them asks how she managed to seduce a dragon.
      I say in a serious and dark voice:

      "She didn't have to."

      That's gonna leave an impression.

      ...I'm a bit surprised that nobody's causing trouble, some creatures look quite aggressive.
      I suppose this place is quite safe indeed.
      Liv is still very shy, but she doesn't show it to the other guests.
      I ask her for a dance. She's quite happy and we go to the dance floor...

    6. Starcraft Tournament finals

      by
      Hyu
      , 03-16-2011 at 04:51 PM (Hyu's Adventures)
      non dream - lucid - non lucid

      I play starcraft2. I'm quite a bit better at it than most of my friends, but I'm nowhere near as good as to play in a tournament.
      I do watch some casts though, follow some of the tournaments, so I guess that I have some idea of how these things work...
      After waking up I noticed that this dream lasted for a really long time and there were a ton of false memories.
      The gameplay mechanics were also spot on as far as I can recall, although the maps were quite weird.


      False memories:
      After getting my masters degree I moved to California, LA to follow my career as a game designer.
      I suddenly had a lot of free time on my hands, so I started to play sc2 quite intensely.
      I got to know a few people, and after some time I ended up in the pro-gaming team "ROOT". (Probably because I watch Destiny's stream who's in root?)
      Some worldwide tournament is happening in LA, the biggest one in the history of gaming, with an insane prize pool.
      I not only managed to qualify, but I actually got into the semi-finals.


      I'm sitting in a glass cabin, in front of thousands of people. I'm wearing sound canceling headphones, I can't really hear anything besides
      the sounds of the game and my own breathing.
      I played really well in this tournament so far, I'm quite proud of myself.
      I somehow managed to stay quite calm, even though I'm playing in front of a crowd, but things have taken a different turn now.

      I have to play one of my teammates. It's currently 3-3 ZvZ, the next game will decide who's going to the finals.
      I want to win, but I don't want to knock my teammate out.
      Without my team I'd still be a random master league player, but thanks to them I'm playing here, in this huge tournament.
      They taught me to play this game at a competitive level, I'm this good only thanks to them.

      We're 20 minutes into the game. We're both maxed on roach infestor.
      The map is quite open and huge. This game will probably be decided within a split second.
      If anyone is caught out of position he'll probably loose right away.

      I can't take it... the pressure is just too much. My heart is pounding, sweat is dribbling onto my keyboard.
      My hands are shivering... I'm loosing it. I have to get my hands under control or I won't be able to micro properly.
      My emotions are burning me on the inside.
      I don't want to knock him out. I don't want to give him an easy win either, or we'll all feel bad.
      I take a glimpse past my monitor. I can't see well due to the spotlights, but there's so many people cheering.
      I don't want to disappoint them either.

      I see his army approaching. I have to pull myself together, now!
      I take my hands off the keyboard and close my eyes, just for one second, in the hopes that it'll calm me down.
      And for some reason it does.
      We're fighting. Any mistake can cost the game now.
      None of us makes one, we trade army's pretty evenly, but then I can see it.
      His reinforcements are running into the fight, but they somehow balled up.
      I barely manage to catch them with a fungal growth.
      He fucked up, I push forward, hard and relentless.
      A few seconds later he gg's out. I won.
      I can feel the pressure suddenly disappearing. I take a few deep breaths. I'm in the finals...


      ... I'm at the hotel. The finals are tomorrow.
      My whole team is staying on the same floor. Everyone is offering me practice matches.
      But I don't want to play, I want to chill so I'll have a clear head tomorrow...

      It's the next day.
      My finals are against a Terran player... It's my worst matchup.
      He's very popular, I doubt I'll be able to win against him.
      But knowing that I made it into the finals in my first big tournament makes me stay calm.
      Even if I get steamrolled in the finals... I still accomplished a lot.

      ... He's leading 3-2. I have to win 2 games in a row to take it. I doubt I'll be able to.
      But somehow in the 6th game, I manage to pull off some insane nydus play and barely manage to win the game.
      3-3 again, well fuck me...
      Suddenly I feel a chance of winning again, and the pressure is back.
      I'm so nervous, my hands are shivering again and the final match hasn't even started yet.
      Then I see the map he's chosen. I'm fucked.
      The map is extremely terran favored in TvZ. Unless he makes a massive mistake there is no way to win this, and he won't
      make any stupid mistakes...

      I can't take it, I have to leave my box to catch some fresh air.
      The organization decides that there is a 20 minute break before the final match due to some technical issues.
      Well lucky me, 20 minutes to calm down... I feel like throwing up.
      The crowd is cheering... I wonder how they would react if I threw up on stage.
      I see my team mates waving me over. I walk to them, I can really use some encouraging words.
      I notice my girlfriend is with them... huh? did I have a girlfriend?
      Of course I do... silly me. (No, you don't...)

      She immediately says "come with me!"
      My team mates are a bit confused as she drags me away to the restrooms.
      She's probably gonna give me a pep talk. The crowd is too loud, we can't have a conversation in the main room.
      But she has something different in mind...
      She explains that she knows the best way to calm down. I only know what she's on about once she starts undressing.
      Right... this couldn't end up badly at all.
      But I am way too nervous about my next match to think about this.

      We have sex... in the restrooms, just minutes before my final match.
      I can't believe I'm doing this. But it really does make me forget about the match for a bit...

      ... It's time... I'm coming out of the restrooms. The crowd is cheering.
      I walk onto the main stage facing my opponent.
      I'm calm... perfectly calm. I'm ready!
      I shake my opponents hand "Good luck!"
      I say this with absolute confidence.
      He knows the map is strongly in his favor, he knows that he's the better player, me being so confident is probably fucking with his mind.
      He doesn't know what to say and goes into his box.

      I sit down in mine and stretch. I'm so ready, I got this.
      I look at the map, and suddenly, I know exactly what I'm going to do.
      There is one completely insane tactic I came up with recently, which may actually work on this map.
      He's probably never seen it before, and I just broke his calm.

      I smile... I got this!
    7. very vivid dream

      by , 03-16-2011 at 03:05 PM
      This was at one point probably the most vivid dream I have ever had. ok so I started in my 70 year old woman p.e. teachers house and she was very nice (this part of the dream is a little hazy) and I went her her room and I laid on her bed trying to fix something for her but I can't remember what it was. I left her house after a bit and it was afternoon and I seemed to be near a beach town with all the small kinds of building and houses of a beach and the beach off to the left (it just gets more vivid from here) so I walked out and my best friends dad was there with my best friend in my moms car so I got in. We drove along a beach road past houses and palm trees and he stopped and I got out. The beach was on the right so I started walking there but there was a huge strip of land made of sand and had a little grass and some palm trees I walked to the end where I found a fence with a small opening and I walked in and there were security guards with big machine guns looked like m4a1 and he said I had to leave immediately but I ignored and walked towards where some workers were pushing giant rolling cages down ramps into the water and there aS a dock and a huge walled water facility (no roof) out in the ocean and I looked far out to other end and I saw a whale being lifted over a wall by crane and I walked to the dock and started yelling at the owners (I'm a bit of an animal rights activist and veg) and the owners were all very fat and I said you fat f*ks (sorry for launguage) and I was just ranting for a bit and they had one guard that was 8-9 ft and about 600 lbs of muscle he wore a blue button up shirt and black dress pants and I called him a fat retard and i started walking back to land and there was a hotel on regular land with a over hang entrance and I walked through the door and some of my friends were there so I said hi and I turned around and the huge security guard was there and he started crying lol so I gave him a hug but I felt kinda crushed from his hug and I said sorry he left and then I gave this girl sofie I know a hug and 3 buttons from a button Ik shirt I was wearing undid themselves so I put them back and that was the end.

    8. First Try

      by , 03-16-2011 at 02:34 PM
      I'm new to the site, so forgive me if this is in the wrong category.

      Anyway, my sleep schedule is always a little odd, so I am usually not in bed until some time after 1am. This morning (16Mar11) I was up particularly late, reading a few articles on lucid dreaming, which I have always had a passing interest in. At around 5, I finally settled in to sleep, and wasn't really trying for any lucid dream. I was laying on my back, with my arm wrapped around my dog that shares my bed with me. In the back of my mind I was thinking "I will have a lucid dream tonight" over and over, but I was pretty positive the chances of me having such a dream were low.

      Anyway, after a few minutes I apparently fell straight into a dream. I was talking to a man who resembled an ex-boyfriend of mine, a man who causes me great stress and anxiety. In the dream, I remember thinking he looked like my ex, but not being sure, so I spent a while trying to get a good look at his fingers, since my ex was missing a finger, and this is something I do in waking life to almost all men subconsciously now. After a minute I saw that he had all fingers, and was relieved, and able to take in my surroundings. I was in a large room, with cement floors, and some form of clutter on the walls, tho I can't remember what it was. The man was sitting on a four-wheeler, a green "Bear Tracker" to be precise, which is the same kind of four-wheeler I had a few years ago. Some how, we ended up fighting, and as he was begining to yell at me, I was suddenly back in my room.

      I felt like I was looking through my eyelids, like my memory of what my room looked like was allowing me to be in my room, while still asleep. I remember feeling like one hand was holding my phone, which it was not, and I was holding my dog, just as when I fell asleep. Lights were flashing, and I felt pressure on my chest, and a tingling sensation in my neck and face, and had no ability to move any part of my body or cry out. I remembered reading about Sleep Paralysis, and that it was important to just calm down. I was fine, until my dog started shaking in my arms, and I was powerless to stop it, lying there feeling useless. I had the thought to press my forefinger and thumb together, and somehow that must have woke me up because a moment later I was in my bed, dog sleeping perfectly fine, scared out of my wits.

      That was about an hour and a half ago now, and I'm contemplating trying to sleep again, with the lights on this time. I'm usually pretty brave, but that one scared me a good deal, and the whole ordeal lasted only 20 minutes, from 5:00am-5:20am.

      Anyway, that's all I've got for right now.

    9. The Greatest Paraphiliac Road Trip Chase Ever

      by , 03-16-2011 at 01:45 PM (Tales From The Ethernal Realm)
      Recent Dild
      sleep Non-Lucid Lucid
      I slept at around 11:00pm not awake enough to try a WILD knowing id soon fall asleep anyways [March 10th, 2011]
      This is my most successful DILD to date, and overall lucidity acomplishment yet.
      I cant remember every detail, but from what I do remember I was heading towards my friend Idrissa's house when I stopped at his front door and looked over my shoulder to find a man from about what seemed to be his early 30's wearing a large heavy tan trenchcoat and a Hook where his left hand should have been. He circled the front yard around the apartment complex and seemed to be singing a cheery tune, I eyed at him awkwardly and as not to seem rude I waited for him to repeat his refrain and sang along. He stopped towards me and gestured towards his hook and asked me if I wanted to play with him. Something about him signaled to me and I realized he must've been a pedophile, An uneasy feeling swept over me. I told him that I had somewhere I had to be and he let me go but not without showing me one more disgustingly pleasant smile, almost to promise that he would wait for me.
      I entered my friends house, It seemed strangely narrow and to the point, I crossed one hallway and found myself in his bedroom, he immediately starting talking about something irrelevant as soon as he saw me, I interupted him to tell him about the pedophile walking around outside, he said he wasn't surprised, but he did agree that we needed to get out sneakily before he found us. We waited for a while hoping that he left. We snuck out of the backdoor of the apartment and somehow entered a car, Idrissa must've been driving, It came to me that he was most likely going to drive me home, We drove down the street and passed by a few conspicuous cop cars, I expected us to be pulled over for underage driving but we got passed them easily we missed the turn pasing by my apartment and kept going until we reached a dark and uninhabitable road the dark sky dimmed to pitch black and I saw nothing but the shadows of trees. "Were Going the wrong way" I informed him. He shrugged and didnt say a word we kept driving towards the dark until he realized we should have turned back hours ago. So we do. As we drive back the scenery changes into a cave complex.

      We stopped for a rest and talked about our recent activities, and got back in the car soon after. We drove in circles and were greeted by more changing scenery. At this point I had already lost track of the idea of a pedophile chasing after us. The Rest of my adventures that night are iffy, but I do remember that I gained lucidity later on.


      I had acustomed myselff prior to wake up at 5:00am this could have been the reason why my awareness levels rose to attain lucidity
      I attained lucidity Inside of a mall. It was abundant with DC, I tried out a dream stabilization tech I had picked up previously from a Dv Forum and exposed all of my senses into the dream I touched all of my surroundings and was surprised to find that everything, every sight and every touch was very realistic. I hadnt thought of appreciating my surroundings, So when we got back in the car the sky quickly turned blue and the clouds never seemed so white. The Golden Gate Bridge appeared out of nowhere and stretched across the endless road. We Drove until we reached a sign that read "Welcome To Manhattan" we were greeted by gleaming crystaline buildings, and a shiny marble bridge over looking the Ocean, the sky was sewn into the water and seemed never ending. I saw old people walking around holding hands with kids, this reminded me of the pedophile we had been running from all this time. I turned around and saw him smile at me, he tied us up and brought us into his house. He was going to force us to enter his nightmare, but I didnt feel like cooperating so I left the house and walked into the abyss, I woke up soon afterwards.

    10. Precongitive (WILD): Lucid Animals

      by , 03-16-2011 at 08:40 AM
      I have been getting interrupted sleep the past several nights. I casually decided I could use this to enter REM instantly upon closing my eyes. I did this once recently while stressed out (Night Hike on a Freeway). This might be the first dream I ever remembered in which I was aware of being asleep prior to the dreaming beginning.

      I saw an image emerging from the blackness. It looked almost like a small flower shaped hole in the dark. I could see a well light sepia tone scene emerging on the other side of it. -I became so excited at viewing a dream form from blackness that I woke up.


      I laid still. I was determined to re-enter the dream. I have never re-entered a dream to my recollection. This may not have been the same dream, but the vibe was similar.

      I was in the blackness, awake. A fully detailed dream location appeared. I was standing in the middle of the street looking at an old friends house I walk past on a regular basis. I lost lucidity for a moment. Then, as I watched, all these animals started to emerge from around the property. Raccoon's, cats, and then an adorable looking squirrel came hopping in my general direction. "This is a dream!" I said as soon as I saw it. (This moment is almost identical to: Super Lucid Blackbird Flying) I was thrilled. I turned around to take in the whole scene.


      When I looked to my left, there charging happily towards me were four large shaggy dogs: Black, White, Burgundy, and Golden. I was so shocked by the closeness - I instantly woke up. (*)

      Again I was laying in bed. I didn't move a muscle. This was not a feat of willpower, I was super tired. But internally determined to keep the dreams rolling.


      I was in the blackness awake again. I saw a distorted face emerging a few inches in front of me. All at once, a mirror appeared and I was looking into it at close range. This sounds scary, but I was lucid. I started making various expression in the mirror. I looked more handsome than in real life. My skin was perfect and my flaws were gone.

      (*PRECOGNITIVE*) When I woke up, I needed to pass that same house. I was planning to make it a good "reality check point." As I arrived I smiled. Looked at the house, then, I looked across the street. -My jaw dropped. Right there, about 25-35-ft ahead of where I saw them: Three medium sized dogs, black, white, golden - being walked by a 30-something woman wearing a hat.

      The burgundy colored dog was missing. The real dogs were medium sized not large. I don't recall ever seeing this group of dogs before, although it's possible. I usually do pay attention to the friendly animals I cross paths with in my neighborhood.

      In my first dream journal there was a tiny percentage of dreams that weren't quite precognitive, more like educated guesses Dream: 037 & Dream: 067. This 4-dogs dream is the first dream I'm aware of featuring:

      1) So many different dogs together I don't know.
      2) About 75% accurate and did occur asap almost at the exact location as in the dream.


      I learned over the years that dreams produce: abstractions of people, mind tricks, fake conversations, illusions, distortions, false memories, etc. I never gave precognitive dreams much serious thought.


      Supplements (before bed): 500mg of B5, and 200mg B6. First time trying this combination. I usually take one or the other. Generally, I've found these vitamins help with recall, but cause more shallow dreaming. This dream is consistent in general with past experiences without taking supplements.

    11. I Miss You

      by , 03-16-2011 at 05:48 AM (A World In My Head!!)
      March 15, 2011

      (Real Life)
      The past two months have been maybe the strangest two months in my life. I left a dead end job, my friends who were working there, my parents, and moved out with my sister. We moved during an ice storm, and were stuck on a iced road for so many hours my stomach was sore for days from the hunger cramps (no seriously I was in physical pain for a week from being hungry for four hours). I had no job, still job hunting, but I was happy because I felt there was nothing left for me in that old city, it was time to leave. And I still stand by my decision.

      For the month of February, I didn't remember many dreams. But what dreams I did remember are hard to forget.

      First there was that dream, on the eve of moving out, where my friends house - which also happened to be my childhood home - was swallowed by burning black oil, pouring out of the earth like lava. All it was all over the news, the house that sank in black oil.

      And no, in real life my friend doesn't literally live in my childhood home.

      For the next two weeks I kept dreaming I was still working at that old job. In one of those dreams, me and old crew decided to skip work and have a party in the back room instead!! I follow them happily to the back room. It becomes a long hallway twisting and turning. I follow behind them happily laughing because were gonna party instead of work.

      The hallway becomes my bedroom. And suddenly I realize I'm dreaming. I'm even happier now, I can really party with my old friends. I grab my friend's shoulder to tell her something, and suddenly she falls to the floor and becomes a lifeless doll. I look around me, and I'm alone in my bedroom. All my friends are gone and in their place were lifeless inanimate objects.

      I know this. It's happened before.

      They're the part of me that will never forget them, and it re-emerges with me when I become lucid.

      http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/juro...rget-you-1876/



      About a month later I have a really memorable dream. But I didn't understand what it really meant. Not yet.

      I saw dream friends inside of a tall building. They were standing by the window and I was looking up from the courtyard. They found it! I don't know what it is, but they found it and its important! Suddenly the bad guy snatches them and it away.

      I have to retrieve it! I quickly go into rescue mode, but I decide to be sneaky rather than obvious. I was like a spy with the powers of invisibility. Only now I'm not just looking for it, I'm looking for my friends that the bad guy locked away. I searched through the entire building, I can't find anything! The bad guy is onto me and now he's realized I'm using invisibility.

      I try to trick him into thinking I've found my friends, only so I can follow him as he runs to their cell. But it didn't work. He was one step ahead of me and instead led me to a trap. The whole building goes into lock down, and now they've got missiles outside if I try to escape. But I did escape, and slid my way over icy roads back home - a hole in the floor literally. I left defeated and crawled back into my bed where I woke up.

      I was confused by the dream because I never found out what it was.

      Only about two days later, does the dream theme repeat. Only this time there is no it. Just me trying to find my friends who had been locked away.

      To have two similar dreams like that in the same week, that doesn't happen often to me.

      I think I finally understand why I've been so bummed out this past month. Today when I close my eyes, I can see their faces. In the dream when they disappeared they weren't just in my bedroom, they were in my closet. I guess I did lock them away.

      I miss you

      I was driving my care down a dark street and felt a bump and heard a scream behind me. I had hit and killed a man. People crowded around looking at him and back at me. At first I was horrified.. And I asked everyone around, is this a dream? ... Am I dreaming? Everyone answered with a no, or didn't answer. But I figured out I was dreaming, hopped back in my car and drove away, woke up shortly after.

    13. A (lucid dream) within a (semi-lucid) dream

      by , 03-15-2011 at 11:47 PM
      I'm going to colour code this slightly differently than normal just to make it all a bit clearer.

      Waking Life (Top Level)
      Semi-Lucid Dream (Middle Level)
      Lucid Dream (Bottom Level)

      I am walking down a stone spiral staircase with my old media teacher. I know that I am dreaming and don't need to reality check as the environment is one of the clearest I've experienced. The excitement that I may have a vivid, lucid dream for the first time in a while ends this fragment of the dream.
      I am in a grand lecture theatre/exam hall. It is all on one level and the walls look a lot like the Great Hall in Harry Potter. There are red drapes and the seats have red cushions on them. I am sitting next to T_ S_ and realise that she is extremely beautiful. I lean in to her and realise I am lucid. "Breath on me," I say "And poke me". She asks why and I tell her it's just extremely important that she does so - I use the sensations to ground myself within the dream and everything becomes extremely vivid. I ask her to kiss me and she does so, it was amazing - better than any kiss I've ever had in real life. Despite the fact we're in the somewhat busy lecture hall we start to make love.
      I wake up in what I think is my bed, making love to a brunette girl. She seems shocked I'm doing this and I quickly explain that I was having a lucid dream and that the actions must have carried over to waking life. I am still semi-aware that I'm dreaming as you can see in the rest of this dream extract. We are back in the building with the stone steps and the girl takes me to her class, it seems to have a similar atmosphere to the dream in the lecture hall. I watch from the back for a while and then, when class is over, we head back up the stone steps and emerge at the top of a hill in the desert. Her friend has joined us and we turn to close the large wooden door. As we do so a zombie comes running up the hallway, we just about manage to lock it out.
      I have the sudden urge to help and a presence (dream guide?) tells me that I can. I need to find a particular seed and feed it to the zombie people to return them to a human state. Whilst being told this the zombie breaks through the door and bites the brunette girl's friend. She quickly becomes a zombie and I fight her off, trying to protect the brunette. I can't hold them off for long forever before she gets a small scratch. I vividly remember seeing her right eye developing a white sheen and before long she is one of them.
      At this point I fly off the hill and over the desert, searching for the seed. When I find it I see that it looks like the head of a venus fly trap but purple, with pink spines sticking out of it. I quickly return with three of these and feed them to the three zombies. Two of them become the seeds themselves and start chatting (I blindly accept this) and when I give the third one to the brunette she recovers as quickly as she changed.
      The next thing I know I have taken the two girls back to their dorms and am saying goodbye as I plan to leave for another adventure - the advanced task of the month. I try to teleport there but the dream ends.


      Definitely dipped in and out of lucidity in the last part of the dream there but it was definitely one of the best LD's I've ever had! It has also occurred to me that the voice I heard that told me to get the seeds may be my dream guide. I felt a sort of presence (as I have read about countless times) when I was being told this information.

      I really hope I find a dream guide, not for the advice, but so that I have a companion on my adventures to share the fun with.
    14. The girl I've always loved but never really met.

      by , 03-15-2011 at 11:41 PM
      Yeah this is a WIERD one, at which i was in love with the girl in the dream but I've never met her in my entire life it's almost as if it's a memory from another life, the intensity of emotion i felt within this dream was extreme.

      It started off I was on some farmland which I apparently owned in Britain (the date within the dream was much like the iron age)
      The Americans came over sea's in ships to attack us (no idea, really i have no hate for America, just the dream )
      Eventually we managed to start to chase them from our land in a battle, I was running down a lonnngg grey road which on either side had crops, i was following a squad of soldiers (at the time holding swords) with big black hats laced with silver around the edges, they were in blue military uniforms with a brown strap holding their sheath on and big brown boots.

      The dream then cuts to me saving this female from drowning, this girl is someone who in the dream i am crazily in love with, long brown hair and brown eyes, wearing a white dress. I then cut to seeing her in a small wooden boat which was sinking. the ship i was on i got to sail towards this small wooden boat, i jumped into the water and swam towards the boat got in and held her in my arms and we both burst into tears, it was raining heavily but there was no sky.
      I then cried and kept kissing her and the boat was tipping side to side and i could feel the water swilling around me and the boat getting closer with the captain saying our names (her name began with A i think it was Amilia, i dont remember my name in the dream and our last name began with P i think it was pennington or something.)

      I then woke up.

    15. Zombies, Trivial and Vibes

      by , 03-15-2011 at 11:39 PM
      Zombies

      It started off looking like a left 4 dead dream. I was playing with three computers as teammates, and as such they were expendable. We were in a five story building, in a stairwell that very nearby had a ladder shaft that did not have visual access to the stairwell. We climbed up the stairs and upon reaching the top, were beset by a horde of zombies. When the dust settled, all three of my computer allies were dead and I was left alone. I started to go down the stairs and came face to face with the tank. He had about half health left, so I deducted that one or two of my teammates must have died fighting him and now he was apparently stuck in this stairwell, having decided not to come charging after the rest of us. I quietly backed up the stairs and he didn't see me. I decided that I could escape if I went down the ladder that was beside the stairwell.
      There is either a memory gap or the dream shifts to me attempting to do laundry.

      Trivial

      I had had my clothes in the laundry and they were washed but my sister had things in the dryer that were still wet. I asked her if I could use the dryer before I had to go to work. She said she needed to. I went back to the laundry machine and poured some of the liquid detergent onto a rag. The machine was full of clean water. I repeatedly filled the lid of the detergent with water and squeezed some of the detergent from the rag into the lid, making a more diluted detergent than what had been in the bottle. I poured many of these cups into the washing machine, but then as the water level was higher than it was set to, the washing machine emptied some of the water. I noticed the water getting clearer, then realized that because the detergent was denser it was sinking to the bottom, and had been draining out as I put more and more water in. I then put my hand in the water to raise the water level, so some would drain out. As I removed my hand I poured more in so that the water level would stay constant. After finishing that, I realized that I had already washed this load of laundry, said d'oh sadly and moved on.
      I moved out to a large hall where my sister, her friend and an older man I didn't recognize were talking. I began telling them how stupid I had been but in the middle the older man started to leave and the other two were talking, so I walked with the old man until I finished telling him, afterwards he chuckled and then I returned to the other two, who were now talking about a bi-weekly auction. I don't remember what the auction was about but they went on about it for a while before the dream shifted again.

      Vibes

      Leela was sitting in a chair while the other man, her co-worker, sat across from her. He got up and started to talk. He said “do you ever lay on the ground and think about the void?” he lay down on the floor staring up at the roof. Leela went to lay down beside him and looked up at the roof. Her eyes were open but the roof became a cartoon white with black clouds on it. The clouds swirled around and were manipulatable. I do not like to think of darkness, and my paranoia of her coworker kept her from focusing on the black clouds and instead tried to make the void white. She tried to force the clouds out of the vision but they were not fully under her control. She was able to wave them aside, compress them in the center or clear an area, but they were always on the edges still. She controlled them by imagining border lines and using them to wipe the clouds away. The clouds deformed as if they were a gelatin. After a while of trying to clear the clouds, she finally gave up and said “I see a void of white with black clouds.” and he responded, “It's normal to see white with black clouds when thats whats in the sky.” Then she looked at him and saw a wave ripple across an area of him. “Vibes,” she said as she pointed. They then started moving around, experimenting with these vibes. She brushed her hair with her foot, but it was a smooth motion that seemed normal, not awkward. There was an extremely relaxed feeling and after a time of moving around in a manner, a lot of which was Leela playing with her cartoon purple hair, he said, “You're really beautiful, you know that?” They could see a small vibration form in her neck and ripple out through her. After a short time of more vibrations, instantly everything went black and a black man (not black skinned, but black in mood, personality, clothing and hair) filled the view and yelled, “I'll kill you while you sleep” in a voice like the two faced guy from the commercial for sanctuary when he says “watch your back.” I woke instantly, terrified.

      In retrospect the entire “vibes” part of the dream dream had a very similar feeling to when I was doing mushrooms the second time and at a particular time was in a state where I felt connected to my four friends in the room. I would average out their heights so if one of them was laying down on my left, and one was sitting up on my right, I would be leaning downwards to my left. If one of them was sitting forward but the other three were leaning back against the wall I would be nearly against the wall but a bit forward. There was a period where it felt like I was in a trance and just allowed my body to twirl and move. At one point I felt like I had only something like a ball socket joint connecting me at the center, and my upper portion did a full 360 degree spin, forwards, not in a circular twirling motion
