    Non-Lucid Dreams

    1. Dorm and Knives

      by , 09-14-2011 at 01:13 AM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      I was in a dorm of some sort, and a school. Preparing for something, saw my light-colored pants in the cabinet. Outside, we were playing volleyball. Then I have to go somewhere. I prepared two knives. I inserted them into my nails, one on one toe and the other on one finger. Somehow, I realized a problem with that, and I pulled out the knife out of my fingernail, and it has a lengthy "tail," or the area that was inserted under the fingernail for it to hold properly. I felt aghast, and saw the red blood starting to come out.

      Then I looked at the one on my toe, and decided to leave it there, because I can use it to kick attackers. Mood is gloomy.

      NOTE: When I woke up, found my only remaining pants is a light-colored one.
    2. Several Dreams Tonight.....Getting Back Recall...

      by , 09-13-2011 at 10:55 PM
      I will eternally be mad at myself for not posting this sooner today. I rolled out of bed this morning and immediately typed some notes of what I remember into my phone, but they were only notes, and now (11 hours later) some of it is complete nonsense talk to me, and what I do remember is very vague, but the more i think about it the more I remember. So here I go:
      (btw, these dreams are completely out of order, i have no idea how i dreamt them chronologically)

      #1 - The Buzzcut
      This is a short one. All i remember is that I was in my house, and suddenly decided that my hair was just too damn long and it infuriated me (which is weird because my hair was normal length in the dream). So, I went into the bathroom of my fictional house (the house I called my own in my dream was actually not my house or any house I've ever been in), grabbed the electric razor that I don't have in real life and very carefully started to cut my hair with it. I didn't necessarily give myself a buzzcut, as I was very precise with sculpting my hair with the razor in the dream, but I did cut a lot off. And in the end, I'm proud to say it looked like crap.

      #2 - The Pool
      In this dream I was at a very large public pool shaped liked a very large, boxy lowercase b (or q, depending of which side of the pool you were on). The water level was oddly about 15 ft below the edges of the pool, the surrounding areas of the pool laden with tables with red umbrellas. The pool was very deep, an undefined amount actually, because in the dream, sinking and drowning was of no concern. You just floated. There were also several pillars sticking out of the water, and I said the pool was shaped like a b (or q) because there was a middle square elevated on a single pillar that hung over the center of the pool. I was just swimming around, and nonchalantly started to swim as fast as a jet-ski, as it never occurred to me that this was not normal. I should also mention that I wasn't swimming in the normal sense. I had my legs together and straight with my arms down at my sides, and my head and back arched up, being propelled across the water by some magical nonexistent force. I controlled my speed just by thinking about it. This dream was probably inspired by me reading a dream journal entry by CasperKid:
      Dream Journal-- Day 1 - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
      (Dream 2 - about swimming)

      #3 - Trip to Space Ship
      In this dream, I was on some sort of field trip with a class or other group of students. We were allowed into a space ship orbiting earth (how we got to space, I don't know), and we were only allowed in because we were students. Normal people had to pay a ridiculous amount of money to be allowed in. Ha. (It was the equivalent of being allowed into a museum exhibition before its finished because you're on a learning trip). So, I hung out and fooled around with anti-gravity and watched a toddler play with toy cars on a ramp. (The surface of everything inside the ship was a glossy black bordered with red). It was a strange dream.

      #4 - Alternate People
      In the beginning, I was walking through a street on a cloudy afternoon with a group of "friends" (people I've never seen before but happened to be my friends in this dream). We were walking along when a truck pulled up and out stepped a vaguely similar "clone" of one of my "friends." (The kind of similarity between actors and stunt doubles, where they have very similar characteristics, but are really just wearing the exact same outfit). We were dumbfounded.
      Then I was in my "house," in the garage looking outside (it was about noon now, and perfectly sunny) at an old fashioned truck that I had parked at an angle just outside of the garage. I turned around to talk to my "family," and when I turned back around, there were about a dozen "alternate people" resembling my "family" members standing outside in my driveway. I flew into a panic, to the same level of hysteria as if I just saw a hundred zombies charging at me. I angrily yelled at one female alternate wearing a yellow polo shirt like an insane person. Then the dream ended.


      I had one other dream in which I was in a classroom, got bored, took a dump in my old teacher's office and ran away, outside and under some kind of hooded walkway, but I lost too much of the dream and can't describe it in much detail. All I can say is that I ran into Warren D. and Dominic H. standing next to a wooden "NO GUNS" sign posted under a tree in a college-campus like environment.

      That's all....I hope I continue to get my recall back....I'll have to keep practicing...

    4. First entry, Weird dream.

      by , 09-13-2011 at 06:01 PM
      This is my first entry.
      I'm not going to write in this everyday, only some speciel dreams. I thinks dreams, especially some dreams, are personally. But I just wanna share some few dreams.

      Okay,

      I was in a room, and watched TV. There was a video about Africa in the TV. It made me sad. It was about a mother and her childrens. I didn't wanted to watch it again.
      It became evening, and I was sitting in my room. Suddently, my brother came in with a computer, and showed me the video on youtube. I didn't wanted to watch it! I wanted to wake up (I wasn't lucid, but in a strange way, I knew I was dreaming). I "woke up" in my bed, and thought a lot about it. It was a shame. I totally forgot to do a RC. I wrote it down in my dream journal. And then I woke up for real. I wanted to read (I thought it was real, it was so vivid!) but I couldn't find it!

      An interesting dream, hah? :3
      Have nice dreams, Dreamers!

    5. Two short lucid dreams for a newbie

      by , 09-13-2011 at 05:18 PM
      Hello everyone. I am new to this but I have been used allot of time lately on this and feel little obsessed by it. However, thought I could share my experiences the last week. I usually remember dreams every morning but the last week it had been allot of party so only remember two of them but in return they are both my first and second lucid dreams even I only was lucid for a few seconds both times.

      Wednesday 7 September, non-lucid to lucid
      I was a place which reminded me of my hometown and near the house where I grew up. There was allotting of people in the streets and they where all playing with water. I was lying at the back of a pickup truck and cuddle with a girl. I was hiding from my gf who was cycling around the area. Afterwards I went to a building and found a guy I worked with for many years ago. He and his friend were borrowing the room next to mine for sleeping.

      I was sitting on the grass at my grandfather’s farm. There was lots of people there and some family members. I spoke to my mother who sat across me. She told me that my grandfather (who recently died) was lucky to be buried near this place. Suddenly she disappeared when I looked away for a short moment and I looked at my hands and realized I was dreaming.

      I got so excited and walked little and jumped high into the air but in the same time I regret it as I have read here that I should take it easy and try stabilize the dream first. The dream became unclear and then turned black. I tried to spin but wake up in my bed and did some RC, just to make sure I did not have a false awakening.

      Tuesday 13 September, non-lucid to lucid
      I was in a room connected to a house with a small garden in between. I saw a huge group of people who was coming up the road to the house. I knew this had happened before and knew that the group would be busy with some other things before they would attack me. I looked at the house and thought about last time and when i barricade myself in the house and I remembered all of the rooms there. I was thinking about to use the same strategy and then it suddenly hit me that I was dreaming and i looked at my hands which was strange and I became lucid.

      I was calmer this time but very excited in body and the dream started to be unclear. I walked to a storeroom and spin around and the dream get more clear again but not for long. Then I tried to rub my hands together and helped for a few seconds before I wake up and did some RC.

      Not good enough but I believe I am on the right way.

    6. Fragment

      by , 09-13-2011 at 03:51 PM
      I was in my living room which was as brightly lit as it usually is in the day time. My partner was there and she was talking to someone else in the room, aside me. I think this was my dad but I don't remember anything else.
    7. Dancers/Puppy/Guy

      by , 09-13-2011 at 03:16 PM (Curiouser and Curiouser)
      No luck again last night I will try harder tonight. I am determined!

      Anyway. First dream:

      I am in a store (Nordstroms, I think), in the back. It doesn't look like a warehouse, but that is the purpose it serves, this is where they keep all their items before putting them on the shelves. It's also connects to some sort of performance hall. There are dancers around. One of the dancers is talking to me, and tells me that there is a special discount magazine for people who have been confirmed dancers for two years. I want to get the discounts, but I have not been a confirmed dancer for two years. A big group of girls is by me, and they start singing. They are mostly Latina. A large black girl in the front is singing a solo.

      Second dream:
      I meet a boy. Me or my sisters have recently started playing some new game, and the book we use is open. Me and the boy are talking about it. I have a baby with me, and he takes it from me and walks somewhere. I follow him and see him exit a building. I go back to my original spot, (but I know that he will be coming back there soon) and my younger sister comes up and coaches me. She points out that I am wearing socks that say "Blondes" on them, and this boy is a brunette, and that might hurt his feelings. I put my shoes on to hide my socks, but she tries to convince me to put on one of her shoes, which is velcro and much too small for me. This confuses me.

      Third dream:
      I'm riding in a car with E, S, and probably A although I don't really remember who the third person was. It's more like a sled though - it has no roof or doors, and I feel concerned about this. I drop my cellphone off the side, and we pull over and I run back and get it.

      At some point in one of my dreams I think I had a new puppy, but I don't remember.
    8. Falling Through the Universe.

      by , 09-13-2011 at 03:14 PM (Choi's Journey of the Conscious Mind)
      [COLOR="red"]Lucid[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="blue"]Dream[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="silver"]Thoughts[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="lightblue"]Hypnagogic[/COLOR]


      [COLOR="silver"]This night I tried to WILD before normal sleep. I have heard that it is impossible, but I was thinking and thought, if we can
      be aware of a dream, to be lucid in that sense. And still be able to rest, wouldn't it be possible to stay have the mind awake the whole night and let the body rest. This is called Yoga Nidra "Conscious sleep". I have allways told myself that a dream is just a thought, but a vivid thought and I have even seen my thoughts become a dream in a WBTB DEILD.
      So if I can just stay aware until my thoughts, become vivid then it should be possible.
      I considered the problem of staying awake long enough for that to happend, but I came up with an idea to keep my mind busy and to totally forget about my physical body.

      I like visualization, and day dreaming in that sense. I thought that if a dream is a vivid thought, then a thought must still be the closest to a dream that I can come while being awake. So my method to keep my mind busy is to daydream, but not the nornal way. Usually when we day dream we think about something and associate it with something else and suddenly we think about anything and then we fall asleep.

      I started out by going through memories of my day in my mind, as detailed as possible. When this was done I assumed that I was perfectly relaxed, my body felt numb and uncomfortable feelings started to appear. Now I pretended that I was going to separate from my physical body into my non-physical body, pretend that I WILD so to speak.

      So I visualised that I went out of my bed and I chosed two objects in each room in my house to explore.
      And when I come to the kitchen I started to lose consiousnes from time to time, but I returned to the visualisation.
      Eventually I lost it completely and I had a dream.

      [COLOR="blue"]I were in my school and this dream was boring, because it was just about a normal schoolday.
      Then I was walking home from that schooldream and suddenly I realised that it was a dream.[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="red"]I didn't stabilise I was not aware enough in my mind to do that for some reason, instead I looked around and were surprised that I remembered this much from the real world, because it was a real location.
      I took pace and ran and jumped and started to fly, I have had many fly dreams now so I had enough confidence to control this flying. And this time I decided to fly to the universe! When I were up there and saw the starts and the empty black space I started to accelarate and it almost felt like falling. And I fell and fell and suddenly I was back in my bed.[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="blue"]I heard my mom screaming "Your dad is shopping clothes!". "In the middle of the night?!" I said surprised. "Yeah go back to sleep" she said. And when I did I woke up for real...[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="silver"]On my real awakening I did a reality check and I was now awake. I looked at the clock and it was now 4.40, so I went back to sleep.[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="blue"]I was now standing in my tv room and a person I don't really like was laying on the couch and eating popcorn, this was a weird dream and I don't really remember it.

      Then I was walking into a Chinese store, I looked at a t-shirt and it was a cool background and a text saying "Zhore".
      I then saw a bowl of red balls, I asked what it was and the person behind the disk said "Dragoneggs" and then I woke up.[/COLOR]


      [COLOR="silver"]I will make a new attempt to WILD today, but if I fail which I probably will I have an alarm to WBTB.[/COLOR]

    9. Midsummer Nightmare

      by , 09-13-2011 at 02:43 PM
      My dream, this past night, was non-lucid. I wasn't aware I was dreaming until seconds before I awoke.
      I was in a field surrounded by silver roses when a person came up to me, asking for help. I wasn't sure why, but I trusted this person. He took my hand and led me into a forest filled with several types of trees.
      In the middle of the entire forest was a weeping willow. It was larger than most but it was still beautiful.
      The man sat with me under the tree for a time and I looked around, wondering why there were no animals that should be there.
      I looked over at the male and saw his eyes flash a deep sapphire blue before turning back to a jade emermald.
      I didn't think as I stood and ran.
      Now that I think about it, when I woke up, I saw a snake following me just before I left the dream.
      What do you all think?

    10. ...

      by , 09-13-2011 at 02:38 PM (Username's phantasmagoric dream journal of psychedelic delirium)
      I was in this alley way with some people from school. then some really shady people came along and I left. I then heard yelling so I thought there was a fight, so I ran back. I forget what happened...

      I was about to try and bum a cigarette off of my friend's friend, but then decided that would be annoying, so I stopped halfway through asking him. My friend would doesn't smoke in real life then gave me one.

    11. Living on a Half-Water Molecule

      by , 09-13-2011 at 01:52 PM
      Type: Regular dream.
      Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
      Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

      I was in a rectangular room that was about 20x15 feet. It had polished hardwood floors, and a rectangular red shag carpet in the corner. Two of the walls, one long and the short one adjacent to it, each had a greyish-tan fireplace that, instead of having short rectangular stones, consisted of the rounder kind like you'd find at the beach, except much bigger. It almost looked like something out of a cartoon. The fires were on in both of them. In the middle of the room, off more to the left and away from the red carpet, was a small round coffee table.

      The overall atmosphere of the room was comfortable. There was a warm glow emanating within the room, though the lights were somewhat dimmed. There was also music in the background, but it was so soft I don't know if it was ambient noise, or a stereo playing on very low volume.

      Along with me, there was a few people standing in the room, to the right of the coffee table. I had watched X-Men: First Class a few days back, so this must be where some of the characters came from. I saw Michael Fassbender's rendition of Magneto, in a white shirt and tan pants, talking to Banshee (Caleb Landry Jones), who was wearing a green hoodie and jeans. Finally, I saw Seth Green (no idea where he came from!), and he was wearing a pale brown T-shirt. He was with the other two people, but then he turned to me and gestured for me to come over. I obeyed and briefly greeted Magneto and Banshee, but I don't remember if I said anything. Seth faced the group and held his hand up, appearing to be holding a tiny ball in his fingers. I looked closer and it was a light blueish ball of swirling air, no bigger than a marble.

      "This," said Seth, "is the first-ever half-water molecule. This is what we're on right now."

      I was fascinated. This dream was sort of like Avatar, except we were asleep right now and had another set of bodies on a different planet.

      The dream then fast-forwarded, and I saw Banshee and Magneto passing a smaller beach ball back and forth, standing closer to the rug this time. Magneto looked as if he was having difficulty catching it and squinted as the ball came to him, which wasn't really 'floating' up in the air the way a normal beach ball would. I didn't say anything to them, but I remember standing off to the side and looking at Banshee, suspicious, thinking he wasn't supposed to be there.

      Another skip occurred, and I was now in a rather fancy restroom. This room was sort of L-shaped, with the first line being around ten feet long, five feet wide (there was a door on the end), which connected to the second line which was much fatter and almost more square-shaped, ten feet wide and fifteen feet long. The restroom had beautiful, larger shiny brown tiles that were mutely swirled with a golden color, and along the right side of the squarer part of the restroom was one long white counter with three or four sinks. There were also two sinks, in another white countertop, in the long section near the entrance. Back to the square section, on the left of the sinks were pale green cubicles. They looked like the ones at my school, but they were nicer, with gold and bronze plating down the edges, and they were a bit wider than normal cubicles.

      I remember "knowing" that my mom was going to come into the room, and I was going to discuss the possibility of using water to induce lucid dreaming with her.

    12. Angry Birds...

      by , 09-13-2011 at 12:46 PM (Pop's Dream Journal)
      I find myself at my mother’s house with two of my older brothers. In the dream, I know it’s my mother’s house but it’s not the same house as in the waking world. My mother is complaining because some baby ducks are either trapped or holed up underneath the house and/or porch and they keep “chirping”.

      My parents have a 2 ½ acre yard with a pond in the back half of it. When I was little, we had ducks on the property, so it was not unusual back then to see baby ducks around the house now and then.

      Anyway, in the dream, my Mom is afraid the baby ducks will die if they’re not rescued, plus the chirping is driving her nuts. So me and my two brothers crawl under the house/porch and retrieve the baby ducks. In doing so, we also find that there are some small green birds under there as well. They’re about the size of a small mouse. I pick up one of the birds and as I do, it tries to bite my hand. Luckily, I have gloves on. I tell my brothers, “It’s trying to bite me.” One of them says something like, “Yeah, watch out. They’re mean and they bite!” I can’t seem to stop the bird I’m holding from trying to bite me, and I’m starting to lose my grip on it, so instinctively, I squeeze the bird as hard as I can to try and kill it. It seems to work, because the bird stops moving. I look around for a place to dispose of it, but don’t see any trash cans around. So I end up just tossing it into the bushes.

      I usually remember more than one dream during the night. But I'm on vacation in Honduras scuba diving and sleeping in a strange bed. I tossed and turned and only got about 5 hours of sleep.
    13. Graves, CatPelts, Closet Void, Blizzard

      by , 09-13-2011 at 12:41 PM (A's Night Lives)
      1. I was cleaning up a grave yard. Someone had tipped over all the tombstones and I took it upon myself to right them. At some point I also fell into a grave that was half dug open.

      2. I was at a house helping someone with repairs. We came into a room to discover hundreds of cat pelts laying all over the floor. Some still had the heads attached. I had to find out who would do such a terrible thing.

      3. Lucid: Woke at 3:13am, drank, back to bed
      Dream started off OBE like. I floated out of my body and into a vertical position before landing on the floor. I began looking through drawers and cupboards with the feeling that something important was waiting to be discovered. A hallway closet was empty, a void. I picked up a shoe and tossed it into the void. It disappeared into the darkness. I don't hear it land anywhere. I decide to just do it and jump in. But I didn't fall down. I fell forward and horizontally into the blackness. I keep falling and I do not recall if I fell into a new dream or if I might have awakened.

      4. I was outside when a vicious blizzard decides to strike. I can't even see a foot ahead of myself. When the blizzard finally dies down I am surrounded by giant snow drifts. Shapes adorn the drifts. Some are just hand prints. Others are names. One is a large heart that is a message to me. I can't remember the message but I stomped through the snow to write a message back that said, "I know. See you soon." I then tried to find my way to shelter.
    14. Fear of Lucidity?

      by , 09-13-2011 at 12:09 PM
      13 Sep 2011

      Some weird psychotropic thriller, I do not know what was going on but Dark_Merlin and I were attempting some weird lucid technique and every time someone said its title it occurred for one of us but it was extremely traumatic. It was a teleportation but it was sudden, uncontrollable and felt like what apparition in Harry Potter is described to feel like only worse. It scared the hell out of me and actually had me not wanting to go back to sleep when I had woken up for the first time in about ten years. I feel that I must admit that I was actually scared of becoming lucid and I hope that this is not a barrier to future attempts. Hamish and Andy had also requested that I meet them for lessons in walking each week. The girl I love was also at the tennis courts. The dream jumped between all of these things in a weird order. The whole dream was rather traumatic at the time. I was genuinely terrified of going back to sleep.
    15. fjord collapse; rescuing drowned boy; abortion jokes

      by , 09-13-2011 at 12:06 PM
      Good morning, everybody.

      Dream #1

      No vision, or just black. A voice said how "an entire fjord" (???) in France had collapsed into the sea.

      Dream #2

      A bunch of people, possibly including me, were on a huge ship like a cruise ship. A disaster had occurred -- possibly that another gigantic cruise ship had come apart and sunk. Almost everybody on board had been killed. The people on this new cruise ship were now out in the ocean, not to find the living people, but to pull out of the water a lot of dead people who were floating to the surface.

      The ship coasted over the black waters and under a yellow sky. A young woman with coppery skin and long, black hair stood out on the deck of the ship. She spotted the body of a young man who had apparently drowned. She threw out a rope to grab the boy's body. She pulled the body onto the ship.

      The woman was now in a cabin right on deck. The body of the young man was laid out on the floor of the front room of the cabin. The woman had walked into a back room. She now walked out to the front room. I may have seen from her viewpoint at this time.

      The young man on the floor was possibly Asian, with coppery skin. He wore a yellow t-shirt and darkish khaki shorts or casual pants. He was a little bit overweight and shaved bald. He looked older than his age, somehow. I attributed it to the stress of his death and the effect of the water on his body.

      But now the young man began to make motions with his mouth. He slowly mouthed some words and made some cringing expressions with his eyebrows, as if he were in extreme pain, and as if he were still afraid of dying. He may have coughed some water out of his mouth.

      There were some other people in the cabin, possibly including the Captain. It was recognized, possibly by the Captain, that the woman had saved the young man's life. I'm pretty sure I saw from my own viewpoint at this point, not from the woman's. The woman said that she had a feeling, when she saw the boy in the water, that he was still alive, or that he could be resuscitated.

      Dream #3

      I was watching a comedy. But it was also like I was reviewing the movie, after I'd seen it. Reviewing the movie, I commented that I had no idea there was going to be a scene with such crude humor in it.

      I could only partly remember the scene, and I kept trying to see it, but it had something to do with abortion. It was like it was blocked from my view by a lot of sillhouettes of people's heads.

      I then saw another scene, in which a group of "average guys," like in a comedy for guys, were all standing next to each other before a table filled with jars of aborted babies. The guys had to pull the babies out of the jars for some kind or humane reason. But they were all kind of bumbling about at the task so much that they were actually disfiguring the bodies.

      The men were using weird implements to get the babies out of the jars. One of the men used a huge knife, to which the baby stuck, like a magnet. The baby's back may have looked charred. The baby may also have had eyes with no whites, which were all a dark grey-blue.

      I felt bad because for some reason I had taken my mom to this movie with me. I had thought it was just an ordinary comedy. But those two abortion-comedy scenes were really gross, and I was afraid my mom would be freaked out by them.

      My mom and I were in a car, pulling into a space in a big parking lot. I tried to justify the grossness of the comedy in the movie by explaining that the film had been made by the guy who made There's Something about Mary.
