non-lucid

I was inside my house, but it looked different, maybe a different model. Then I walked outside and I saw in the distance, a huge volcanic explosion. Miniature explosions kept getting closer and closer. The closest one landed a giant puddle of orange magma in the yard. Then there was this dog. It was a little Chihuahua. It ran up to me and was burnt everywhere. I went back inside. Then out of nowhere, a girl that was made half of magma, and mostly human being rose out of the magma puddle. I locked the door because I didn’t know what she was going to do. She didn’t act like she wanted to hurt anyone, but she kept calling us to come outside. I said, “It’s a trick don’t do it, lock all the doors and window quick!” I had thoughts of maybe it being the devils army when these beings came. I went back to my room which was changed, I didn’t grab any thing wood for I knew it would melt. I grabbed a metal plant stand and two gas masks. I only had two gas masks. I heard of where bubbles of gas can rise and kill people. The door swung open, and I yelled “GAS GAS GAS!” I held my breath till I put the mask on. She was standing there. Then the dream faded. That concludes this dream.

I have been struggling with basic dream recall, but I am up to at least remembering a fragment every time. This one made me grin.

First some background: my other hobby is Fishkeeping, and in Fishkeeping there is a practice called "culling" which is the euthenizing of fish that for example would die any way (putting them out of their misery).

In this dream, I was culling dreams. I was evaluating and sorting them to figure out which are not worthy of recall, etc. this was definitely not a lucid dream, and I just remember a fragment of it, but it made me smile, and hope that my mind is on its way to re-embark on this lucid dreaming adventure.

Me and my brother came into a jungle with a wooden wagon and were looking for pumpkins.
"Aren't pumpkins in the orange zone?", said my brother
We headed upwards(there was a hill) and came to an orange jungle.
Then I Look back and see this fat guy laughing and running away with our wooden wagon.
"****...."

Fragments..

Im standing by a lake, its so pretty. all along the shores of the lake are golden barley. I dive in and notice some rubies, so i get out meh diamond pickaxe
and start mining them. I get some rubies telepathically(its hard to explain, in my dreams i store stuff mentaly..). I swim back up and im perfectly dry.
I start running on a road back towards my school, i get to the exact spot where there is a BIG office building, im thinking "There is my school". How could i not
have noticed? Its like totally wrong!

Cant remember anything else.

After a completely crap day, I was happy to awake from these frivolous nonlucids:

1.) Bouncing brownie trainers
2.) All the way sex with a sexy wolf man
3.) Golf cart ride with Nicole's autistic younger brother AKA the chocolate mousse cup mishap

Fallen asleep during recall, again, oh well, i guess next time.

Dream 1(fragment):

I recall something about two games, also something related to ladders.

Dream 2(fragment):

Something about mecha of some kind.

Non-Lucid
Lucid
Not-Dream

- I was driving a car around a car park. The car park was pretty much full and I couldn’t find anywhere to park. As I was driving down a lane the car stops responding to what I tell it to do. It then starts to control its self. It then started to spin around on the spot. I noticed that this shouldn’t be able to happen as there definitely wasn’t enough room to do this a second ago as the nearby cars were too close.

I figured that this was a dream and too check it I did the nose pinch RC. As I expected I could breathe through it and I became completely lucid. I tried to get the car to stop moving but I woke up as I was trying. I looked over to my alarm clock and noticed that I should have been up about an hour ago. I rushed up and went to go make a quick breakfast. As I was running down the stairs I woke up again. (I thought to myself that I thought I just woke up. I did a quick RC and found out that this wasn’t a dream and that must have been a FA.)

- I was in my kitchen getting myself ready to go out as I was going to run a shop my dad had bought. I could hear my brother and sister arguing about something upstairs.

#1
My little brother and I are at a state park looking at the snake exhibit the snakes are somehow odd looking, and my bro is talking loudly about the colors of their scales. (something he would do irl) then they act angry and agressive.

suddenly I am in an episode of Naruto and the young team Kakashi (before sasuke defected) are confronting Orochimaru. everything goes dark and all i can see is someone is swinging a shiny blade on a string, then the light is back and everyone is a puppet. they fall and break, then I woke up.

Causes: I am working on an eagle scout project at a state park. The second part is probably because Orochimaru often attacks with snakes.

Top part is just the DJ for me to keep track. The bottom is a question I have for more veteran LDers

In some sort of basement/holing cell with some crazy guy. I think we were being held captive. I know he was being held captive at least. He kind of looks like the main guy from Just Cause 2. We successfully escape (somehow) and steal white mustang with a black stripe from our captors and drive away from them while they get into a cargo truck. We drive recklessly down the highway a little ways and stop to get gas at Sheetz and the bad people catch up to us. Somehow their truck has turned into a small blue/grey hatchback… looks like an older maybe early 90s car.

I then wake up to my alarm and go to work. Which is where I am now.

I am trying to understand this entire lucidity while dreaming. I understand the concept of it but I want to know what the average time that people start experiencing LD's are.

If anyone reads this if you could post and say how long you practiced your techniques before you had your first LD and which technique you used that would be great and very beneficial.

I was calm through out this entire dream and I would not classify this dream as a nightmare. I was walking into school one day. I looked back and I see three men get out of a white, windowless van. I started to walk quickly. They did the same. I began to run away from the school for some strange reason and one of them caught me. The next thing I knew, I was playing cards with one of the men with my two cousins in someones yard that was not a football field in length away. The man that we were playing cards with and that had kidnapped us had turned around several times. Each time I had signaled to people that were nearby. Nobody understood what was happening or no body wanted to help. The next thing I remember is walking with the man and my two cousins near the school. I saw a friend of mine that was looking at us through a giant window that my school has. I signaled to him that all was not right and he understood me but was turned away by another kid. That was the end of my dream.

Last night 2/26/13 Tuesday bed time 12:45am - 9am

DR 7am
I'm in a house in the canyon. I'm sleeping over with some other people. Trying to pick bedroom to sleep in. I think the rooms are haunted so I take my blankets to the sofa.

Nap 12:15 - 2:30

I knew it's gonna be good, because body started to relax in just a few minutes. Couldn't decide if to go for OBE or WILD, so kept mixing up the mantras. Did protection, tried to wiggle astral body. Finally fell asleep. Woke up to something later and got into a WILD.

When WILD faded away, I thought to myself "wait a minute, I'm still lucid. I refuse to just lose lucidity. Have to get into another LD. I did this about 4 time.

Details have faded away, because last attempt to retain lucidity failed and I fell into a long non-lucid.

LDs
- As I'm floating through a arched corridor with some wires and lights on the wall, I decide to eat a lightbulb, because I remembered how others ate some. So I smash it in my hand and start eating. I was wondering how it will taste like. It didn't taste like anything, but slightly on the nasty side. Was crunchy as expected. It stuck to my fingers as if it was melted sugar. My finger hurt as I was biting the hardened sugar bulb off of it and I was worried that I may accidentally bite my finger off.

- I float into a small grocery store. Stop by candy isle and decide to eat something else. I pick a small yellow baggy of gummy candy. Turn it around and start reading the ingredients. I don't like gummies from apple juice.
These are the ingredience:

Hef! Hef! Hefner Industries!

I was laughing my head off in the store. I gave some of the candy to someone else.

- I remember other exits, each one totally different than the other. When WILDing, I made a plan to stay in my room and explore. I remember one LD I'm in my room, looking around, thinking "ok, I explored, now lets get out of here"

Non-lucid
I'm in a van. Bunch of other people. We are stopped somewhere. Someone offended someones sister so bunch of angry girls come to car and try opening the doors. We try to shut them.

Then I'm walking on a promenade by a huge lake in Mexico. I see hotdogs float by, nicely arranged. I wonder what the hell? Then I see a person grilling hot dogs, saying "finally they delivered the hot dogs". He ment the onse that floated to him.

Looking for a place to sit inside the restaurant, then picking a table nicely decorated with small round vases with red flowers. I'm kinda not happy, I would rather try some authentic mexican food than food from turist trap restaurant.

Walking through customs with lots of other people. The oficer is telling me that dollar is in the crapper, with 1 peso eqaling 1 dollar.

Good feeling from the whole thing, had bunch of fun with exits. Gotta love them.

It was a raining day at Pacific High School. I can't seem to run away from this place and the more I think about it the more I start to believe about taking other in life. I started at the rear of the school. I'm inside a classroom, just waiting. There are a few people outside and we weren't allowed to go out at the time.

This place gave off a gloomy, depressing feel to me. I was calm until I had to go out to the rain and speak with two adults. These two adults I spoke to, I don't know them, I forgot what they looked liked, but they were there to protect the school from this "unknown" monster.

I volunteered to go with them and see if I could be of any use, despite not knowing what I was getting myself in to. They agreed to let me follow and from there, we ran down the halls of the school in to the danger zone.

As I was running I noticed the fear I had preparing for this unknown confrontation. I had no idea what I was getting myself in to but no matter what it was, I had to be confident and defeat it.

Once I knew we arrived, I saw a big backyard full of dirty things. There were clothes thrown out everywhere, lots of jungle trees and wet writing paper everyone on the ground. The rain only made it look depressing. My team rain across this big, dirty yard and I followed. They went on without me. I heard some screams, scared screams. I didn't like it. I ran back towards the entrance from whence we came. I was running in fear.

On my way to the entrance, I saw a gorilla of some sort. It seemed human but still I wasn't sure. I was too scared to go back to the entrance so instead I turned back towards the screams and ran as fast as I could! That's when I decided to fly. I got a running start and slowly jumped in the air and began flying!

I was slowly ascending up towards the rainy sky and eventually went out of sight from the gorilla. I was scared at the time so I didn't care how high I went, I just wanted to get away from the gorilla! I heard the gorilla yell out to me as I was happily moving away from this part of land. When I finally escaped the proximity of the gorilla's attacking range, I reached the plains behind the yard. It was safe there but I still wouldn't trust it.

I woke up.

Non-lucid dream recall from a nap.

I was in my room and i was hosting livestream for yogscast over internet somehow. I was supposed to play FTL while Simon and Lewis were commenting on that. I started the run and everything was going fine for a while. Then i noticed that the theming of comments was changed like it was another game, at this point i realized that recording software was running instead of streaming software for some reason, so there was no video part on stream. Furthermore, keyboard and mouse suddenly turned into book of sorts while still retaining the controlling capabilities, it's hard to describe, but basically it looked like book but on touch it felt like there were keyboard buttons all over it. While i was trying to figure out how to use this 'device' and was pressing those invisible buttons, FTL suddenly got voiceover messages of sorts, but i didn't looked at the screen and kept attempting to figure the 'device'. Dream ended shortly.
