    Non-Lucid Dreams

    1. Soap Opera Castle; REI; DV DC

      by , 04-22-2012 at 10:28 AM (* The Sandman's Dream Journal o/***)
      Soap Opera Castle

      I was in the room with a woman who was the mother of a family in a soap. She was in her mid 50's with short, thick, slightly dis-sheveled brown hair. She was curled up on a sofa, and she said, "This will be the best story yet." She was referring to something that her family had done, not the fact that a soap is actually a story.

      I thought she should be embarrassed about what her kids had done, but she didn't seem to care. Her kids were men. The butler was in the room, though I didn't see him. I thought the mother should be embarrassed with him there, knowing what the kids had done also.

      The mother was looking out a window, or windows. They were large, plate glass. She looked out over a castle. My view was like in a helicopter as I flew over the land and got a moving view of the castle. It was incredible.

      I could make out the architecture. I can't describe it, but the castle was isolated on an island, though still close to the surrounding mainland.

      I was explaining to my daughter that they owned the castle. That's what it is to be rich; you can just buy everything there: the castle and all the land.

      I said, "That must be a fjord?"

      I came in for a close-up of the landscape. I saw hills with clover rather than a thick turf.

      Dream skip

      I was lying on a sofa with my boy. I was thinking about going to the store. All of a sudden I'm going to sleep. Clearly Lucid is in the room. Iwl, my windows were open and I'm very cold, so in my dream I can see my breath.

      Clearly Lucid starts talking to me about our tomatoes, and he strated telling me what he thought about the rain and the cold on our newly planted tomatoes.

      My breath was visible in the room. Even when I was breathing in. I thought that was odd. It kind of scared me. I kept focusing on my breath breathing both in and out noting my visible breath.

      I then saw some kind of light as I was waking up.

      I shut the windows in my room cause it's freezing in here.

      REI

      I was going to REI to use some points I had. Iwl I am a member and have credit there.

      I started walking down a path to get to REI. It was night time and kind of spooky. I got to a a small pond that I needed to cross to get to REI so I could buy a life jacket.

      I rowed across the pond. The boat was very unstable. There were large fish in the pond and I sensed danger if I tipped over.

      I made it to the dock on the other side. REI was right there by the water. I walked up a bit of an incline and talked to a lady outside who worked there. I told her I was there to buy a life jacket.

      Somehow I needed to get there 20 minutes before closing so their system could take the money and ring me up. It was barely 20 minutes before closing. She said that she couldn't ring me up because the system wouldn't have time.

      I was pissed! It seemed so stupid. I said, "Fine. I'll buy it at the other REI. I went over to a rack where there were life jackets just for the trip back to the other side of the pond where I came from. I pulled one down but it was like a full length jacket. I got another and it was the right size.

      I then saw a door that led to a room. If I went through, I could get to the other side of the pond, but I wasn't supposed to go that way. I asked about it, and they said I could. They were going to let me, but they said I shouldn't. I said, "That's OK. I'll take the boat and go the normal way.

      The dream ended there.


      DV DC

      A DV DC wouldn't let me call them by name.

    2. Being invaded by planets

      by , 04-22-2012 at 09:08 AM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      I was in some kind of company building, and the place I was sitting on was very much like the living room in my secondary home, there was some dude staring intently through the window (actually it was a door with a big window), searching for something in an inappropriate way. He was kind of annoying but I didn't care to much, however someone else went there (he had a small dog with him) and opened the door to see what's going on (there was a big dog out there, however the small dog scared the hell out of him, which I found pretty funny). When I was looking outside a moment I saw something shooting star like, but it was somewhat bright outside and due to it being pretty big I figured it was an meteor. Kind of thrilled I went outside to see what was going on and then I managed to spot some planets in the sky, at first only a few, then about 10 which were coming closer. 2 of them were somewhat earthlike so I wondered if one of them was earth, I kinda zoomed in but saw that the continents didn't match earth so they both had to be different planets. Now really excited I ran around with something particular in mind while thinking. I was running across a large plain with several different zones, some even separated by fences, some vegetation here and a few smaller buildings there. There were a bunch of Chinese looking people everywhere shooting with small water guns at people to keep them from moving around, and while some of them thought it was a game, the people in some area noticed something was up when a big wave was coming in, they were trying to do something against it but I figured to keep running, as I was about to leave the place I came to the conclusion I've got to be dreaming so I did an RC and became lucid. The dream was somewhat really instable and I tried at least 3 different stabilization techniques (looking at my hands, rubbing them together and my WSS) without success. At some point I also wanted to go in some certain direction into a grey looking forest for no reason and used super speed and flying with great success until I got tangled up in a tree at which point the dream finally started to collapse for real. I kind of managed to stick to it hard enough so that it just minimized into a smaller window and even managed to force my dream to tell me how stable it was, then I got a big red font across the window, like this:

      Stability: 18%

      The number was changing somewhere around that value and I didn't manage to pull it up anymore so the dream faded. However only into a false awakening which strange enough I didn't manage to catch up to. I woke up in an unknown room, my girlfriend and some other girl were sleeping in the same room, and I got up to write my lucid down like I'm used to, apparently we exchanged a few words but the dream already faded, and this time for real: I woke up.

    3. The Blackout and the futuristic city

      by , 04-22-2012 at 12:14 AM (Shooting from the Sun: Solarflare)
      This dream was very vivid. Much more vivid than my usual dreams. From the scenery (which was extremely detailed) to my emotions, to the way dream characters acted.

      The dream began at an intersection. It was nighttime, but it was still very bright. This was due to the cars and the streetlights illuminating the road. I was near my school. But the road leading to it was very dark compared to the bright main road. It didn't look menacing or anything though. I was with 3 friends and we were the only people there. 2 of them were female and 1 male. I believe we walked to the school and entered it. We watched some presentation or something then we left the school.

      We walked back to the intersection and began talking and stuff. I don't know why we were at the intersection at the first place. Soon everything became black. The streetlights turned off, and all the lights in the houses turned off. The only thing still on was the car lights, but they weren't bright enough to illuminate the road. It wasn't pitch black, but I couldn't see at all. One of the girls said we should go to the school. So they began walking. When she realized I wasn't following her because I couldn't see properly. She grabbed my hand and led me to the school.

      We began talking about something. I don't remember what, but I was really happy for some reason .

      We made it to the school and I entered it. I watched another presentation by principal Skinner (from the Simpsons). I couldn't find a place to sit, so I sat awkwardly in the corner of the room

      Then we left the school and walked back to the intersection. I saw another friend and asked him if his phone was working. He said it wasn't due to the 'Blackout'. I replyed, but how can't the phone work? He replyed about something about satellites or something >_>.

      All the lights were back on, but the group percieved the world as still in a black out. The traffic lights weren't working, so a gas station at the intersection (it just appeared there) built a McDonalds trafficlight. It was very bright and soon it told us we could go. WE began walking across the road and we continued walking until we saw a beautiful city in front of us. It was very futuristic (but small). There were 3 blue chrome like buildings in the front of the city. Behind it there were lights of all different colours and those lazers that appear during concerts (i dont know what they are called). In the dream I thought it was Hollywood for some reason.

      I walked to the city and I saw yet another friend with his father. But they were wearing sleek black robes and they were about 5x taller than an average human. I don't remember if I talked to them or not.

      After that I got invaded (this paragraph will contain Dark Souls terminology, so you may skip it). The person invading me was a Darkmoon Warrior wearing Robes. I used this magic attack on him (that isnt in the game) where a bunch of slashes appeared out of my hands (the dream is now in third person btw). It was dong approx 27 damage per hit. Soon he died and I continued.

      I suddenly realized I was late for a train ride and that invasion only left me 2 minutes to get on it. So I ran to the blue futuristic train and got on it.

      I dont remember the train ride except that it was a sidescrolling game from that point on >_>

      I don't know why, but this was one of my favourite dreams So thank you brain

    4. 4/20

      by , 04-22-2012 at 12:08 AM
      Well, I can't recall any dreams, since I slept restlessly the whole night due to my stuffy nose. So I'll just use yesterdays. Sometimes I have really out of the blue dreams that just have absolutely no connection to my life and just confuse me when I wake up, but whatever, here goes.

      A girl from a my school finds a way to fold clothes, and that's somehow relevant for some kind of school field trip. So my health class (health class?? How??? Why??? I are confuse) goes on a field trip to buy suits, which also confuses me, the girl is on the trip but she isn't even in my health class. So I enter the store and I remember the store from another one of my dreams. It's kind of a mix of a clothes store, whole foods, and 7-11 (google the middle one if you don't understand, it's just a grocery store.) but it also had a very warehouse-ish feel. I end up buying some binder instead of a suit which confuses me even more. I was sick on that day too, but I at least had dream recall, so that'll have to suffice.
    5. My Dream About Lucid Dreaming

      by , 04-21-2012 at 11:24 PM
      I didn't even know this was possible :L

      Anyway, I'm lying on my bed - the way I normally do when I wake up - and my pen I use to record my dreams is on the floor. I lean down to pick it up and it repels away from my hand, like a magnet would. I'm unsure of what just happened so I decide to reality check by putting my finger against the palm of my hand and it slid through my hand quite comfortably, the feeling of this is amazing.

      So as this is successful I decide to muck around, I pick up a DVD case and change around the letters on it, it worked. I then realise that I can do what I please, so I made my cupboard into a slide, and I slid down stairs into the kitchen, which has red cupboards and drawers, and black marble worktops, very similar to my girlfriends kitchen. I then walk through to the hall, it's massive, this is definitely not my house, it's much bigger. This is a mansion like house, with a massive conservatory, with a massive TV and loads of DVD's and Game cases.

      I have 2 dogs, one a golden retriever and the other a black Labrador, the same as my friends dogs. We also have another dog (Collie) that we can't keep in the house because it scratches the furniture and things so we have a house outside for it, kind of like a small barn.

      I got called through by my mum to let the dogs out into the small barn with the collie to play for a while. I go through to the living room and see my mum lying on the couch as she normally does with the laptop on the arm of the couch. There are lots of "Love Film" bags around her, like the bags you get if you order a movie from them, but my mum doesn't like ordering things online. She tells me she's ordered a movie that should be here on the 23rd, I love the news of this for some reason. I then go out to the conservatory and open the doors to get into my garden with the dogs to lead them to the small barn. When the doors open and I step out I wake up

    6. Wasp Battle

      by , 04-21-2012 at 11:23 PM (Lucid Time!)
      I slept over at my cousin's house last night. I can remember having several dreams last night, but my cousin woke me up by screaming and jumping around so all that I was able to recall was this:

      I was in my front yard. It was obviously summertime, because everything was green and the trees had leaves on them. There was this guy. I can't remember very many details but I think that he was very short and had a beard. He told me about this giant wasp that I had to fight or something. He told me that I should not kill it or let it sting me, just fight it.
      The next thing I knew I was running though my yard and there was a giant wasp chasing me. I can remember it having bright red stingers and a yellow-and black striped body. It was about 2-3 inches long.
      At first all i could do was blow it away. I seemed to have a really strong breath that could not only blow the wasp away, but it would create winds that were blowing some of the leaves off of trees and stuff.
      Eventually I picked up a big stick and stated whacking the wasp with it. I didn't want to touch the wasp with my hands otherwise it might sting me. My plan was to whack it and stun it so i could get away. I kept whacking it every time it came close but eventually I missed and it landed on my neck and stung me.
      I felt a slow, aching pain spreading from my neck and I woke up.


      I suppose this dream sort of goes in with being in a park/forest as a dream sign.

    7. Secret Agents

      by , 04-21-2012 at 09:20 PM
      Sadly, this was one of those dreams I almost entirely forgot as my daughter shook me awake. This is a normal problem.

      I was a secret agent, and even better, I was a bear. I had fellow bears that were also agents. Our job was to investigate the activities of the pigs, and stop their nefarious plans.

      I really wish I knew what those plans might have been.

      I recall carrying a briefcase that had information on the plans of the pigs, and I think I was at a trainstation.


      I had another dream, again about being a secret agent, but this time I was a butterfly. I was surrounded by other butterflies, and we were all flying into the sky, presumably towards the sun. The other butterflies were all kinds of pastel colors, mainly blue, and as a group we formed a twisting column rising into the sky.

      Some of the images reminded me of what I saw (and posted pictures of) at the Umlauf Sculpture Museum, particularly the Butterfly Project.

      I liked this dream but I would have loved to recall more detail. Darn kids.

    10. Butlers and random...

      by , 04-21-2012 at 07:32 PM (My Little Shop of Horrors...)
      So strangely -I should say thankfully- I did not have the nightmares last night. I did however, have the oddest dream that included blood sucking -no I am not a vampire obsessive female- and running from people who wanted me to be like them. The dream was quite hazy and I will attribute that to the alcohol from a friend's barbecue that I went to.

      I was attempting to flee from this groups of people whom I had no names for and now I cannot remember their faces. They wanted me to be like them I remembered thinking that being like them was boring. I unfortunately cannot remember what "being like them" entailed. I remembered running from them and a handsome man in a Burke outfit wearing a tail coat and everything like a Victorian era butler ran up an rescued me. In the dream I knew him and he was quite protective over me. He had told me I was losing strength and that I needed to recover it. He made a small incision on his neck and told me to drink which since he was handsome and I love English accents I obliged. I remember the people chasing us were freaking out about my doing so and then the butler fellow whisked me away. We made it to a playground where suddenly the booming bass of a terrible song woke me up. My neighbors suck.

      I got about five hours of sleep which was fantastic for me. I got more rest than I usually did. I do not want to have to drink booze though every time I want to sleep as there has to be a better and healthier way. Besides, I don't fancy becoming an alcoholic all for the sake of sleep; no matter how lovely sleep is.

    11. Recuring Haunting

      by , 04-21-2012 at 06:02 PM
      For years I have had a recurring dream about my grandmothers home. In my dream, it is haunted.

      My grandmother has been dead for over a decade. Her home was a favorite place of mine, as a child. I never felt uneasy about the home, in general, but I do remember a wierd sense of being uncomfortable in the attic. I recall thinking the attic, in its spider web and dusty state, might be nicer if it were clean with fresh carpet and drywall. There was always this question, in my young mind, as to whether the attic could shed its eery feeling.

      (As I grew older, I recognized that queesy feeling in my stomach as more of a signal that something wasnt right. And, I dont stay in areas where this feeling predominates. )

      The stairs to the 'eerie' attic were in the room where my uncle stayed until he married and moved out. Several years after I had these experiences and when our family no longer owned the home, my uncle confided in a series of his experiences.

      As a teenager, my uncle told me he experienced (what I would classify as) a mild form of possession/obsession with a spirit. It started with him making a connection during a ouije board session. He asked me not to 'play' with ouije boards. He stated that he attempted to throw the board away, in attempts to end the relationship. First he threw it in the trash in the kitchen. A few days later, it appearred in his closet. Then, he took it to the trash behind the garage. Again, it reappearred in his closet. Finally, he threw it in the furnace and the entire home shook and he heard demonic screams. That was four decades ago.

      I am sensitive to my surroundings and I often have psychic dreams. I have had dreams of demons trying to lure me, in one way or another. About 5 yrs ago I started dreaming about my grandmothers home. In my dream I am drawn into the 3rd floor attic or the closet of the 1st floor bedroom. Each lead to a demon.

      In my dreams I fight to rid the house of the demon and I am always unsuccessful. Last night I taunted the demon, daring it to appear. It did and I could feel its strength, which scared me.

      I dont understand why I keep having this dream. And, I dont know what it means. I want to go back to the house and face my dream head-on but, I dont know the current owners and live in another state. Any suggestions?

    12. 6-1-11, Important dreams from the past: We are the star called

      by , 04-21-2012 at 05:54 PM
      "We are the star called" If anyone has any idea where I may have heard that phrase to have it enter my dream, let me know. I can not for the life of me figure out what it meant, but it felt like it was really important to me in this dream! What was my subconscious trying to tell me?! As in my other dreams from the past, this was before I learned about Lucid dreaming and knew what sleep paralysis was caused by and everything. It's also written a bit different from my normal dreams because I just copy pasted it straight from my book of discovery, changing only the names (making them the first initial) for privacy sake.

      Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

      This morning I had a dream that I can barely remember but that felt important. I remember starting out in a busy harbor type place with lots of ramps, large steel containers and wooden crates of all sizes and colors. There are also a lot of ropes around hanging from railings and what not. There are a lot of people running around as well, but they are all in their mid twenties or younger, most are still children. I make my way up a 20 foot ramp in front of me, and as I do I pass a smiling girl who must be around 10. She’s a bit chubby and has dishwater brown straight hair. She smiles at me, then passes by me. I lose sight of her for a moment and turn to see where she went, but she’s gone. At the top of the ramp I make a sharp left to double back over a second ramp that runs in the opposite direction of the one I just came up to yet another level. The air around me seems distorted a bit, like there’s an invisible person there and I can sense rather than see them. My senses tell me it’s the smiling girl following me because she is curious about me. At the top of the second ramp there is a rope stretched out across the big walkway between the crates and containers. On the other side of the rope there are a bunch of people gathered in a group. A blond guy whose face I can not make out but whose hair looks like K is in the group at the end of the rope. He turns and smiles up at me, and slides a yellow bar up the rope so that I can zip line down to the crates they are on top of. I ride the zip line down and he puts his arm around my shoulder. He starts showing me around this small hangout, but I can’t remember much from that part of the dream. Then he takes me back to the other side and a few dozen feet right of the first ramp. There are a lot of people in their early to mid twenties grouped there talking. He takes me to stand in front of them and he puts his arms around me, leans over and whispers in my ear something like, “You are one of us, we are the Star Called (Or maybe it was Star Fall?)” Then he starts to kiss my neck and I feel woozy and slightly confused before I can hear myself thinking, “Why am I letting him kiss me? I probably shouldn’t let him do that, C(my husband) would be mad.” And I wake up. This dream was not accompanied by the usual sleep paralysis I have when I see K, and I never saw his face clearly. While I won’t call this a K dream, I can’t rule it out because the paralysis has been less and less every time I’ve dreamed of him, so it is possible that I have finally adjusted enough not to get paralyzed anymore. The whole dream felt very vivid and real, and when I woke up I felt a very strong urge to google something, but I didn’t know what. It was like I needed to learn something important, but I can’t remember what I needed to learn about.

      So, anyone have any similar dreams? Anyone have any clue what Star called might be? Is it something I heard in a movie or book and just forgot? Or does it actually have some sort of real meaning? I still feel restless when I think back on this dream, like I missed something important.

    13. 4-21-12, Almost not worth writing

      by , 04-21-2012 at 05:36 PM
      So I didn't sleep much last night. I went to bed around 3 am, and woke up around 9. I'm too stressed to sleep b/c we've got some big decisions to make about our house. All my dreams were the fuzzy early night dreams and I can barely remember anything. That's ok though, the My Little Pony wedding comes on in half an hour, so I don't want to spend forever typing anyways.

      Dream Fragment One: I'm talking to someone. I don't remember who, or what they said, but it really helped me. I actually had an argument with my husband last night over possibly moving, and went to bed feeling like the Grinch that stole my husbands Christmas. Luckily, this dream left me feeling like I made the right decision and everything was going to be better in time. I can bet it was either K or Vesta I saw last night, I kind of wish I remembered who, lol.

      Dream Fragment Two: My dad was talking to me about losing weight

      Dream Fragment Three: I was telling someone that I worked in a "stripper store" and not to tell my husbands church. I've never worked in a stripper store, lol. but I read an article before bed about a local strip joint getting busted for drugs, so I'm sure that's where that came from.

      Dream Fragment Four: My dad was talking to me about weight loss.

      Dream Fragment Five: I was shopping for something for my best friend A, or maybe I was looking for her in a store.

      Dream Fragment Six: I was going to demo a video game coming out soon. But the demo was set up in someone's living room.

      I'm going to post another important dream from the past later since these are so short

    14. Weapon Smugglers

      by , 04-21-2012 at 05:13 PM (Chronicles of the Cosmos)
      Last night I dreamt that me and two other guys were driving separate cars down a highway and we were to rendezvous with an 18 wheeler. We were wearing black tuxedos and black du-rags.

      One of the guys and I were in the back of the 18 wheeler and there were loads and loads of crates full of firearms. I guess the third guy was sitting in the cab with the driver. The other guy was standing on the right side of the back door and I was on the left. Now, all of a sudden, we've got the backdoor opened and we're watching as several trucks and cars speed up behind the 18 wheeler. Why we didn't shoot at these guys, I don't know. This dream just kept skipping and skipping.

      Then there were two guys in here with us. My partner tried to gun one of them down but the guy knocked the gun out of his hand. Then my partner reached for an axe and swung it at that guy. I confronted the other guy and took him out with a single karate chop across his chest.

      Family Guy College Class [Non-Lucid]

      I only vaguely remember this dream, but it wasn't a fragment or anything, my recall lately has just been poor. I was in some college class where we were watching an episode of Family Guy. Supposedly, the episode was leading up to the start of some very significant arc to the plot, and the characters were letting us know that it was going to end at a very awkward scene because of that. The characters were also very visibly stoned, which I found funny. After that, I got up and wandered around this huge building until I found my way outside, then started looking for my car but was unsuccessful in finding it before I woke up.
