    1. Magical Musical Fridges

      by , 09-17-2011 at 11:36 AM (Dream Space, The Final Frontier)
      Loud Music
      I am helping my sister find an actor for a part in a movie. We're in a bedroom that I assume is hers. She has a boyfriend who is passed out/asleep on the other side of the bed from where she is sitting. Mandy is near an alarm clock while she goes through a list of actors. I don't recognize any of them. Then she finds one named Circe while we go through the C's. For some reason it is a male actor with that name. I think I recognize it, so I call the guy up. There is a poor connection with lots of static. I can barely hear him. The alarm clock is also a radio, there is loud music playing. I can't hear the actor to tell him about the job. I walk through the house, downstairs and even out onto the side porch. The house is apparently now my parent's old house. I can still hear the music very loudly from outside. It's overwhelming. I wake up. One of my lucid dreaming music sound tracks in playing too loudly in real life. I had noticed this track being too loud before, so I take the time to figure out how to set that track to a lower volumn.

      Too Many Fridges
      My family comes home from a long trip. We are loading many, many groceries into several large refridgerators. I spend a lot of time organizing things so that they are stored in the right fridges. I find it odd that there is a grocery store freezer in our home (the kind that are open on top, so that customers can just grab things out of them). The freezer also has a shelf unit (kind of like a hutch).

      Power Over Death
      I'm one of several magic-users in the downtown area of my old hometown. There was a horrible disaster. The buildings were tossed around like toys in the wind and many people have died. In the middle of the disaster, myself and two other mages figure that the St. James Hotel has been around for over a hundred years and should be safe to weather out the disaster in. It's some kind of storm?

      The other two mages are upset that their friend has died, a young Native American man. They are arguing over who should be attuned to an artifact that brings people back to life. Neither wants to trust the other fully. As they debate near their dead friend's body, I tell them, "I can bring people back to life just by touching them." It takes them a second to hear me and then they stop arguing. They stare at me, astonished for a second and ask me to repeat myself. I tell them again that I can bring people back from the dead, "But I won't do it if they've been gone too long and are decomposing or if they died from poison. If they died from poison and I bring them back, they will just suffer from the poison still in their bodies and die again."

      They decide to let me bring their friend back to life, so I begin working on a ritual with his body. Eventually I realize that the last part of the spell requires me to kiss the dead corpse, so I hesitate. It seems that the magic is taking a while and I'm not quite done with the spell by the time I wake up.

    2. 32nd shared dreaming attempt - MrIrony's dream

      by , 09-17-2011 at 11:27 AM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      MrIrony's dream

      I don't remember the start, but me and some other kids, mostly my classmates, were thiefes escaping from the police. There was a wall we had to climb, so some adults in our group had made some sort of machine that turned us into tiny balls and transported us to the top. We saw the janitor of our school and knocked her out before she could run away. I was told to guard her. I stood next to her and whistled a lullaby while the others formed a line and waited for their turn to get to the machine. I left the janitor and joined the line. The machine was kind of over complicated, making the balls go a few extra loops before sending them to the top. "Wow, that's some Gold Ruberg logic right there.", I thought to myself. When it was my turn, the woman operating the machine told me something about some part of the machine. I then spent a couple of minutes trying to figure out what she wanted me to do with it. Finaly I came to the conclusion that I should not touch it during the ride and that it was pointless to tell me about in the first place. I ran towards a tiny hole at the bottom of the machine and turned into a ball. It felt like I would have had my legs touching my chin and my arms around my legs and I would be rolling forwards. But I could still see what was going on in front of me. At the beginning of the ride I rolled inside some tubes, but I kept my eyes closed most of the time, because I had troubles opening them. I only opened one of them during that part. Then I was dropped to a conveyor belt. Now I could open my both eyes. But I couldn't get to the end of it before I woke up.

    3. 32nd Shared Dreaming Attempt - Vesterguard's Dream

      by , 09-17-2011 at 11:21 AM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Vesterguard's Dreams

      non-lucid - Notes - lucid

      17-09-11 Some wizard is channelling a spell into a prison, controlling some inmates and guards, they are casting a black magic spell that will make one of the wizard's enemies' hart explode.

      I can't help myself, I am somewhat addicted to the magic and I continue. I hear a voice telling me it is dark stuff, but I am too intrigued.

      I am not supposed to be in the prison I am walking down the stairs to the right until I get down to the bottom. I then look over my left shoulder where the target is standing on a platform surrounded by 6-8 people who are helping with the black magic.

      Someone on my team is apparently releasing the other prisoners from their mind control. I think it is too late.


      Something about Bradley Cooper and Bob Downey Jr. We are part of a movie and it somehow involves a road trip. We are sort of re enacting a film and at one point a I get this comment, “no we shouldn't be holding still here, but rather arrive spontaneously from the other side”. Something about how awesome, yet unexpected if Bob Jr actually comes, but he ends up saying yes.

      Skip.

      A discussion takes place with Bradley Cooper who on drugs has seen a naked man shave his penis that looked more like a Christmas tree (or an elf). Then I see the vision and think there is nothing to be worried about.


      I am in some sort of resort I think, close to the beach and with trees all around and a shopping centre. My family and I are there.

      skip.

      The dream jumps to me in the house of a private investigator that is following me for some reason. I meet an Asian woman in the house who after a little while, I think I threaten her a bit tells me where I can find this private investigator.

      I find him and now they are two against me and he is quite a bit bigger than me as well. He is Caucasian with broad shoulders and fairly long blondish hair.

      I start punching him in the face and alternate a bit between hitting him and the Asian woman while thinking something along the lines of “Evil bitch, you want equal rights? face equal consequences!”. Doesn't actually take a lot of rationalisation to justify punching a woman in the face. I think I get the message across that he should stop following me around

      Skip

      Back at the supermarket it is daytime and I notice the small van of the PI. I see him standing next to it and start running towards him, I notice he has a knife in his hand but I don't care. I charge him, think punching him I the stomach and he stabs me high in my right arm.

      I briefly think that the pain is far milder than I expected, before I pull out the knife and look at it and notice the blade is fairly short. Then I charge further into grabling range of the PI (where he should have the advantage over me) and bury the blade in his throat.

      He doesn't resist for that long and I push him down to rest in an elevated bed of flowers knife still in his throat. Then I take his van, I wonder where my family has gone, but I need to get away. I get inside the van which is very small with only one seat and hope the key is still in, which it isn't but it can still start.

      Then I start driving up the pavement and people move out of the way (think the car can only drive about 10 MpH anyhows. The dream ends when I get stuck trying to drive into a tunnel, though the scenery returns in a latter dream and maybe even the pesky PI.


      I am by the same spot of land with the PI story line and now it is night time and windy as fuck.

      Someone is already in a plane waiting for me to return. The area has to be evacuated and has been a long time ago. I notice the PI's van is there and there is a man trying to get in it. He is no ordinary man though. His legs are gone and you can see his spine and guts hanging out. Besides his facial features looks slightly skeletal, maybe more like his has been flayed from his face.

      He doesn't seem to mind too much, he can still leap a good 10-15 metres and is shouting in a mad voice. I explain something to him or one of my companions that it will probably take him about 10 years to fully recover due to his innate mutant healing factor, but that he will recover none the less.

      He notice us and become interested and shout out cackling “You have a means to get out of this place?” He starts making his way towards the plane and I hope we make it before he reaches it. The dream ends.


      In said plane it is more or less on auto pilot and Bob (the actor version from the Dresden Files series) is guiding a child who is flying the plane.

      The kid has to dodge quite a lot of obstacles in the form of hangar ships out on the water, and sometimes he is selecting quite dangerous routes through tunnels and barely avoiding parked planes.

      “That is why we say Cari..Bou” emphasising the break in the middle of the word that is the name of the plane. The kid has a habit of pulling straight up or straight down and Bob wants him to focus on softer turns.


      I find two ducklings that are tiny. They can both fit in the palm of one hand. I decide to raise them so I grab a big bowl of water for them to swim in. After putting the first in and looking at it as it realise that it is pretty much a natural boat the other one loose both it's legs, which terrifies me.

      I grab it and put it in the water and the legs seem back.

      The entire dream is oriented about the trouble I am having raising these ducks and my family doesn't seem to care.

      I return and the water is being brought to boiling point and I find the small duckling on the stove without its legs again. (actually I remember writing down this fragment in a FA from the lucid I had).

      I return and the ducklings are now swimming around in minestrone soup.


      I am lying in my bed after a brief moment of being awake. I start talking to myself, just let the HHs roll. They don't really intensify that much, but instead I am faced with the feeling of starting to fall deeper into my bed and shortly after I wake up and immediately look at my hands. Surprisingly they look human, though something is off, they might be too chubby or something, but it is difficult to describe.

      I can't really trust it, but I am positive I was just falling asleep so I find a pot and drag it towards me telekinetically. Nothing happens the first second, but then the pot falls to the floor as I continue the mental pull.

      Chess! dream confirmed. I walk to the window and bump against it, but walk through it with a bit more effort and trust in the fact that it is possible. Right what do I want to do, “Blasting rod” I decide and walk over to some bushes and start rummaging through the shadows.

      I think I better not find some sort of lame drumstick like the televised Dresden series, but this is of course exactly what I find. I keep looking through the shadows of this bush and find scorched furniture wood that seems promising at first until I discover it is made of plywood.
      I feel the dream wobbling a bit and I start touching the grass and leaves towards the ground and trying to see if I can smell something. The leaves look fairly detailed, though I notice they have a tinkling spark to them that seems a bit off. Otherwise the colours of autumn are represented in the leafs green, red, brown and yellow.

      Rasmus B, an old school friend comes walking towards me from the direction of the house I was just in. I look up and point the blasting rod towards him to see if I can make fire. I wake up.

      FA: My flatmate comes back from holiday, his face looks weird, but I wonder if it is just because he is tanned.

      I look down and see my new blasting rod, though it is a bit more curved and have some semi-scorched colourings “Oh would you look at that” I think to myself “My blasting rod has manifested from the dream world” (DOOOOOOH!!! XD)

      I start carving in it and is amazed that I can make markings like a hot knife through butter, though the material seems as hard as ivory. I start cutting a small sigil that eventually becomes a big rather deep “V” to indicate that it is mine.
    4. 17/09/11 - Couple of mini LD's

      by , 09-17-2011 at 10:25 AM (Nom nom nom, Mmmattelicious...)
      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Good morning! Man it feels good to sleep until you can't fall asleep anymore. My back always hurts when I do though, but I get plenty of dreams. Had a few LD's this morning, sadly none of them lasted very long.

      23.30: Sleep

      09.00: Short lucids MILD
      *I'm in a house. Can't really recall how I got there, but I need to get out of town so I figure I might aswell live in the woods. I know there's a safe out on the porch and I head out there. It's dark out and snowing. I realise I'm dreaming, but decide to go with the flow. I open up the safe in the wall on the porch and check inside. I find warm clothes, a blanket of fur, a bag that seems to be full of supplies and my snowboard boots. My feet are getting really cold so I take the fur and stand on it. I put the boots on one by one. When I'm done, I haven't realised the dream is fading.

      *I'm driving a car in another country. It's so foggy out that I can barely see the road infront of me. Luckily I have a gps. I turn lucid. I decide to focus my vision on the fog. After a few seconds I realise I'm staring up at the ceiling in my own apartment. Damn! I woke up. Hold on, this doesn't feel like real life. I check my fingers and can see through half of my hand, like I'm crossing my eyes.

      *I'm at work and is giving out orders to all the truckers. My boss shows up and asks me a few questions about the area and I tell him I'm going to do it a bit differently. He seems pleased. A coworker of mine, Smålle, shows up. We start walking down a road. He asks me a question as I get a weird feeling. I put my hand up and do another RC. Once again I can see through half of it and realise I'm dreaming. "I'm still dreaming?" I ask out loud. I ignore Smålle and his question.

      10.00: Fragments
      *I'm in a huge mall with someone else. We walk around and check out all the stuff that can be bought. I realise this must be a rich man's mall. I see two blondes who looks really stuck up. I laugh and head out of there.

      *I'm with Monica at a big tent. People are drinking all around us at different booths and tables. Somehow Monica can see into the future and tells me there's going to be a huge fight. I get instructed to smash someone's bottle and I do, breaking three other too. People start yelling and fighting and we run out of the tent, somehow Monica gets shot and I have to carry her. I put her down in a ditch not far away and tell her to calm down. For some reason she's not in any real danger, and I tell her about a rare druid leather chest she can try, but I realise it says: "Druid leather" and rogues can't use it (wtf?).

      *I'm standing outside of the establishment at work and I want to get in. I bang on the big rusty gate. I've gotta go so bad and luckily I spot a toilet just next to the door. I get in and can hear someone coming down the stairs next to me.

      10.00: Wake up

      Amount of sleep: 11 hours

      Supplements: None


      That's it! I really need to start stabilizing for real... Not sure why I don't do it. I'm telling myself that the first thing I will do is stabilize, but somehow that doesn't go through. Oh well, next goal is to stabilize only.

      Keep on dreaming, HARE BRA!

    5. Thank you FA!

      [COLOR="lightblue"]Hypnagogic[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="silver"]Before bed I read about technique to keep your mind awake, but your body asleep.
      And how to not fall asleep while meditating. One of the tips suggested that I was going to have a comfortable posture, but it should be a little uncomfortable to keep the mind awake. So I put two pillows behind my head, so I had a straight back, but my legs were still in their normal position. I concentrated on the blackspace and looked between my eyebrows and I started to think about normal things just to see if I could stay awake, and everytime I lost focus I didn't looked at that spot, so I just looked back again.

      But somewhere I just blacked out. :)
      [/COLOR]

      [COLOR="blue"]This whole dream was weird, but cool at the same time. Because it tried to convince me over and over that I was awake, it eventually did, but I got lucid.

      I woke up in my bed and heard weird noises, normally I would DEILD here. I really thought I was awake, but instead I did the noseplug reality check in my bed and it worked![/COLOR]
      [COLOR="red"]I was now laying lucid in my dreambed and I went to see my parents. Everytime I talked to my dad I was overwhelmed with feelings or something that tried to convince me that I was awake.
      Then I went out of my house and I admired the vivdness of the dream. I thought to myself "This feels more real than the physical world!" and it did! The dream was vivid enough for the sensations, so I didn't had to stabilise that. But my mind wasn't stable enough so to speak. I can fix this with spinning, but I wasn't aware in my mind enough to do that. so somewhere here I was aware of that I was dreaming, but I wasn't aware through my conscious, but through my subconscious.[ so that makes it a normal dream again.[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="blue"]I was filled with joy and I didn't had to care about anything, I started to climb up to the rooftops and I ran. I tried to stabilise the dream by running in a straight line and it worked. The dream was super vivid. but then I woke up.[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="silver"]I was now in my real bed and I wrote this dream down, then I fell asleep again.[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="blue"]I was eating lunch with my friends and a girl there that my friend likes was there too. We tried to make him talk to her, but he was to shy. So we started to talk about random stuff, then for some reason we went into a store and we met some other guys, then I woke up.[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="silver"]WILD before bed is really hard I admit that. But I am trying to find the perfect way to keep your mind busy without falling asleep. I'll keep trying.[/COLOR]
    6. Singing dream-woman.

      by , 09-17-2011 at 07:02 AM
      I met this woman, and talked a lot with her. We talked about dreaming, sleeping and Lucid Dreaming. Suddently she begun to sing:

      "Because of sleeping, we're going to bed, because of sleeping, we're going to bed"

    7. Orphanage Escape

      by , 09-17-2011 at 02:49 AM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      I was in an orphanage of sort. There are other people around me. There's also Luis M. We were making love very awkwardly. Then the person changed into someone else. It was my lover (a stranger). We were sleeping side-by-side, with my lover to my right. Looks Caucasian.

      Then we had to escape. It was an orphanage for kids used for crimes and other stuff. The leader was there. When we approached the door, the leader popped out. He shot and hit me on the right side of my torso. I shot him and hit him on the head, and he dropped dead. I didn't feel anything.

      We continued running, but we're not sure which way was out. There were many others. Then some were out. I was looking for someone. Had to find him. I was outside. The others were just staying right outside. I told them to run as far away as they can because there's a bomb.

      There was a pregnant woman coming out of the building. At first I was just watching her, and then I was accompanying her, as she climb up the... stairs?

      Then there was an explosion. With no sound.
    8. Caterpillar illness

      by , 09-17-2011 at 12:43 AM
      I'd invited two friends from high school over to my house, which was a mixture of my old house and my parent's current house. I wasn't feeling well so I went to sleep, had another dream which I believe was something about a caterpillar. Upon awakening I was very ill with such a bad fever that I was delusional and hallucinating. My father tried to give me medicine to bring the fever down, but I dumped it out and filled the medicine cup with water. Eventually I started to feel better, and realized just how sick I'd been. My friends had left, and I found out that I apparently had received the illness from the dream caterpillar. Then I woke up.

    9. 3 Dreams: Dog, Cloud, Vampire

      by , 09-17-2011 at 12:06 AM
      In the first dream a dog spoke to me, an entire sentence. I was surprised. Now I cant remember what she said.

      in another dream I was laying on a hay bale in my field, it was dusk I believe, looking up at the whisps of clouds. and I noticed one whisp of cloud moving very fast due west, then it made a sharp right and was moving due south and it didnt slow down. and then I saw another whip of clouds moving very fast. they did a small waver and there was a flash of light in the clouds followed a second later by a pop of thunder. I saw some smoke coming from the direction of the clouds the smoke covered me. I made it hard to see and I felt strange.

      in my last dream before I woke up I was tracking a vampire. tracking near my house. I saw two paths going through the woods and wasnt sure which he went down. I chose one and soon found it lead to this creepy old back woods cemetery where some of my family are buried. The Grim Reaper use to be visible at dusk on the one of the trees in this cemetery. as I was coming out of the woods to the cemetery I noticed this old rifle I was carrying had the barrel full of water. I doubted it would even fire. and if it did shoot how much damage would it do to a vampire. I was looking out through the cemetery but didnt see anything. I think thats when I woke up, I dont remember anything else.
    10. Gears effect

      by , 09-16-2011 at 08:28 PM (Tales from the sun chaser.)
      I think I was in a real life mission. I remember some vehicle that looked like an open monorail. There was lava everywhere......recall gets blurry

      I'm playing a version of gears of war with my friend D. It's a side scrolling game like contra, but I know it's gears because they have chain saw bayonets. We were at the last boss, and we died. D said he was going to give up, and I was kinda upset about it. I told him all we needed to do is stand in the middle of the screen and keep everything that comes on the outside clear.

      I don't think he was trying to hear me. Jack walked and she started playing with J's kid for a bit. She looked almost like her video game counterpart if she aged, grew out her hair, and died it. She was still tatted up and everything else. She ended up picking up the controller, and we started playing until the dream ended.
    11. Fishing and Party with Cockroaches

      Thoughts

      This dream started off with me sitting at my computer and I saw something black run across the floor. I tried to find it and and I had found it and it was a cockroach. I had many attempts to kill it unfortunately I could not kill it. My dream ended.

      One of my most vivid dreams ever. Almost my whole family were at my grandparents house. We decided to go to the forest because they live near one. We decided to take bikes for the ride to the forest. We started biking and I told my dad this is a horrible braking system on the bike. He said it worked fine for him as long as he pushed the top softly. I decided to go down a hill extremely fast and brake. I pushed the brake too hard and I flew across the street fortunately I was still alive. My dream ended there.

      This dream started off with me,dad,brothers, and close friends getting off at some harbor where we could go fishing. We started to get ready. My dad was ready to throw in his line but then a party boat had stopped right in front of our face. They ran into some bar that was underwater. I also remember that they did a 360 turn before hitting the bar. They decided to gather everyone from the bar and go to the ocean. We decided to go, so me and my dad swam across the water to the boat. After a while I noticed we saw a group of people there. My dad said they are from European country called Azerbaijan. He then took back his answer and said Romanians. My dad comes from a Romanian descent. He started talking to them and he doesn't usually open his mouth too much to strangers. They started recording him and then an udder silence hit the boat. The dream ended.

    12. Did I just fish out a hockey puck with my favorite girl?

      by , 09-16-2011 at 03:31 PM (The Universe of Infinite Possibilities.)

      Thought

      This dream started out with me at some sort of hockey ice rink with my brothers. I told my brothers to put on their helmet when they come out on ice. One of my brothers put it on but the other didn't. I started screaming at him so one of their coaches(my coach also) called me over. He started to tell me that he doesn't want the kids to wear the helmets because it doesn't protect their head well enough. Almost all kids had no protection. I started yelling at the coach that I do not care! I want the kids wearing what i tell the to wear. He shut up and the dream ended.

      This dream started out with me and my old friend from 6th grade. She was with me in the middle of some island. There were two volcanoes and one had a nightclub and the other also a nightclub. We started talking and I got real intimate with her and we started making out near a playground outside. I felt a real connection between me and her. Her dad later called her in to my house because her parents were visiting mine. We laid down in bed together and since I have a bunk bed i sleep on top. Her dad started to shake the bed violently and we almost fell. Luckily we got off and survived the fall. The dream ended.

      This dream started out with me on a beach that looked very similar to the inception beach. I was with one of my relatives and we were fishing off this beach. I caught about 10 big gigantic fish. The last one I caught I felt that it was poisonous so I looked at my hands to see if I had any cuts. I had hoped to become lucid by looking at my hands unfortunately I didn't.

    13. Unknown

      by , 09-16-2011 at 02:46 PM
      My dream last night was non-lucid and very foggy. once again I was looking for something when I came across a child. This time it was a boy.

      He looked up at me and smiled, holding out a knife. I took it and it was immediately drenched in blood. I heard screams and saw as the little boy laughed.

      Someone grabbed my shoulder and, like normal, I turn to see who it is but wake up before I see the person's face.

      Any ideas what this all means?
    14. Lego Technic

      by , 09-16-2011 at 01:26 PM
      I had returned from college and went upstairs to get changed. I was watching some T.V and I saw a transformer made out of lego technic, the guy pushed a button and it transformer from robot mode to vehicle mode.

      Some how I got that toy and started playing with it downstairs, I showed my mum and dad. I pressed the button and it transformed, they weren't that amused.

    15. A monkey and kidnapped women

      by , 09-16-2011 at 01:07 PM (Pop's Dream Journal)
      I remember two dreams from last night.

      In my first dream, I’m outside of a house. Someone is telling me that there is an animal of some kind (a raccoon, squirrel or opossum) up in the attic of this house that makes an awful racket at night when people are trying to sleep. Me and another guy (unknown…but in the dream I know he is a friend) are going to try and catch whatever it is. Funny thing about the house, though, is that the front outside wall is missing so we are able to climb ladders and access the attic from outside. When I get to the top of my ladder, I look inside and spot something moving – it’s a small monkey, like the kind you see with organ grinders. He seems friendly, so I coax him over and grab him with one hand. This startles him and at first I think he’s going to bite me. I winch in anticipation, but the bite never comes. So I take the monkey and toss him outside onto the ground, then climb down the ladder. But when I turn to look at the monkey, I see that it is no longer alive and has somehow transformed into a toy stuffed monkey.

      In my second dream, I’m driving a van and there are a couple of guys I don’t know in the van with me. We also have two women with us but they seem to each be sealed in some kind of big, square plastic bag filled with water. They are both alive and angry and demanding to be let out. I know somehow that we have kidnapped them and are driving someplace. One of the men in the van is angry with me because we are driving close to a news van/crew and he’s afraid they will be able to see inside our van and see and/or film the two women being held hostage. But I reassure him that I’m swerving in such a way that the news crew won’t be able to see them.

      That’s all I remember from the second dream. I need to work on my RC’s throughout the day because, as crazy as some of my dreams are, there is no reason why I should not be recognizing them as dreams.
