non-lucid

Hello, everyone! Its not a nightmare (Thank GOD!!!) but it is weird: The dream started in my house. Everything morphed into a huge church-like room but the walls were tan. Suddenly the Sham-Wow guy and a random woman came rushing across the flour with a huge chalk board. The Sham-Wow guy yelled ,"SHAM... WOW!!!" and stared doing random math problems. I said ,"What the heck is going on!?" and I "supposedly" became lucid. I got scared for some reason I don't remember and woke myself up. ( Its funny because I didn't become lucid, I DREAMED of becoming lucid,lol ) The End

Dream Lucid Me DC

Dream 1
This might be a part of dream 2, i´m not sure.
I was standing on a platform. Joe (From Family guy.) was laying there because his wheelchair was gone and I needed to get him out of there. I saw some floating thing in the air and when I got closer, I realized it was a floating eye. I also knew it was an enemy. I locked on to it (Another gaming dream.) and pressed a button to get information from Navi. (The fairy from Ocarina of time.) "You can absord its laser by blocking it", she said. Once I did this, a power meter appeared. It went up and down and I turned from red to normal with it. A text appeared saying, that if I would press R2+L2+both side buttons, I would hit my sword to the ground and create a portal. I could do this 84** times. I killed the enemy and grapped Joe. I started riding a camel (What?) to a ramp which had some arrows on it. They were some kind of speed boosts, and once I touched them, I flew through the air to another platform. After I did this couple of times, I started a new lap. This time new platforms appeared, allowing me to reach higher places. Then comes the part i´m unsure of.

Dream 2
I was in some cave-like room with 3 other people, 1 woman and 2 men. One of them was digging of some ground tile or something. "I´m ready, boss" , he said to the other man. Then the tile collapsed beneath him and he fell to a cavern below. "What is that?" ,I asked. "Looks like a cave. Go get some rope", the other man said to the woman, grapped a flashlight and jumped down there. "You better take a shovel with you" , the woman said. I nodded and jumped to the cave. Once I landed, I stepped aside as she dropped an shovel to me. I grapped the shovel and walked to the other guys. Then the whole cave went pitch-black. "Oh great, now this dream turns into a nightmare", I though. (Didn´t became lucid.) I put my arm around the leaders shoulders. "Is that you?" , he asked. "Yes, it´s me", I reply. I feel someone else touching me. (I just knew it wasn´t the other man.) "Um... Is that you too?" , the man asked. "No?...."

Dream 3
I have an FA, my vision is still bad. I look at my clock. It shows 9 o´clock. I assume it´s 9am, ignoring the fact that my alarm didn´t work, my parents didn´t wake me up and i´m hopelessly late from school. I do the nose RC and it works. I do it one more time just in case and then step out of the bed. It´s still very dark and I try to fix it, but I fail. "I´m not allowing some darkness ruin my LD", I think and fly through my roof. My vision gets normal as soon as i´m outside. I look around me and see, that my house is some sort of church, and theres an old man walking up stairs to my front door. He says something, which I don´t remember. I fly higher and begin to stabilize my dream by looking around me and touching the bricks of the roof. I remember my goal of going to Lucid crossroads and decide to use the "Fly on top of the clouds and search for a hole" technique. I look to the sky, but theres only a few little clouds up there. I start to summon more and start flailing my arms around, like I would be saying "come here", but without, you know, talking. Just as i´m about to give up, I see one really dark cloud on the sky. I continue and more and more of them start to appear. Soon the sky is black and I can see some lightningbolts up there. I start flying upwards, but I got scared. What if a lightning hits me? Plus my "flap your arms" style of flying is too slow. I give up and think of another way. I decide to try to go underwater and then rise from the fountain in the Crossroads. I begin to look for water, and land. I pull away an curtain and see, that there is an pool on the other side. Well okay, I wouldn´t call that little hole full of water a pool, but it will do. I was in third person and i´m not actually sure if even did go underwater, but I failed. After this all I remember is, that I start to see some random scenes, bouncing between lucidity and normal dream until I woke up.

Comments non-lucid Lucid

I felt like I have had an introduction to this dream before. I recognized the bridge in it.

A family, which are depicted as members of my family are preparing to stay in a cabin / house on a tiny little island in something resembling to a fjord. The island only had room for a house with a floor. The house was white with dark brown lists. It was a great and wide wooden bridge to get to the island. At the bridge there is an old man with a blanket over him and a cap on his head sitting in a wheelchair. He has two holes where the left eye should have been. As if the eye had become skin tissue and was punctured. But they have said previously in a dream that he was not dead. The atmosphere is hazy, and over the bridge, I see only a mountain sticking up from the earth that goes sky high. The rest is just swamp, not a road even. Further than just across the bridge I do not see because of fog. Around the hut was only heather, all the way to the water.

There was a baby there, portrayed as Stewie Griffin from Family Guy. He played in the heather on the west side of the cabin when I heard some voices from nowhere and he argued with them. He died of some reason and the man in the wheelchair drove him west from the cabin with a pickup truck. On a road that did not exist. Later, the father and daughter (my sister and dad) are discussing something I don't remember, while she looked down into the water on her reflection. They stood on the north east side of the cabin. It felt like she were suicidal. I felt that everyone in the family would die.

Dream skip until night. The whole family sat and watched the reflection of a very similar cabin on the other side. The father explained that the same happens to the cabin as it happens with this. If it burned, this one burned also. I saw that the hut was burning and that this one also did, then the image disappeared. I now have a sort of guided tour of everything in place before I wake up again. Just like as the dream wanted me to remember it. I woke up.

You may call it a nightmare, but it didn't frighten me even though it was some pretty freaky images there. Like the old man with holes in his eye.

Because I waited so long to write this I forgot many details about my dreams.

Note to self record dreams first thing when I get up. NOT 12 HOURS LATER.

Dream 1- Snow

All I remember is seeing snow and thinking this might be heavy enough to cancel school.

Dream 2- Future hostage situation

Before I went to sleep I tried to imagine a scene and walk through it several times so that I could dream about it. I thought it might be cool if a tried to do a cycle duel like in tron. I imagined the situation about 4-5 times before going to sleep. I was about to pass out when a stray thought ran through my head and changed the dream. "Maybe I should watch an episode of Mobile Suit Gundam before going to sleep."

I was in a room holding a bunch of hostages and a book full of Gundam stories. The very hostage situation I was in was written in the book. I checked the news and saw that the military had stepped down and surrendered to me. It was just like how it was written in the book. Unfortunately there was this one guy who had a white mobile suit who refused to surrender and instead stated that he intended to attack me. Also just like in the book. I tried to read further ahead in the book to see what would happen but instead saw some covers for some other Gundam books. I then woke up...

Pre-Sleep:
Good Meditation again an hour before sleep. No TV.
In bed, incubation of first scene - then distilled to one 'frame' at concert with mantra.
Stressful report to write for work kept me awake composing draft plans for 4 hours - sleep about 2am.

Sleep:
2 fragment dreams followed by long Concert Dream coupled with river/water dream sign. Non-Lucid.
Summary: I am at the outdoor field concert of incubation but larger scale consisting of 5 stages with 100's of thousands of people. The 2 lower stages have been flooded by river (dreamsign) and two large tug boats with cables are needed to stabilize remaining 3 main stages of concert from being swept away. I suggest/realise we need to go "upstairs" to get 3 remaining stages away from the strong current of the river so tug boats can secure concert stages more easily.

Post-Sleep:
6am work start so very tired. Amazed at dream about concert incubation semi-successful but also realise that my subconscious has used dreamsigns of river/water and incongruity of "going upstairs" in a river in an attempt to make me realise I am dreaming. I still do not realise and attain lucidity. Almost like I am resisting realisation of dreaming despite best attempts by my own subconscious !!??

Self assessment:
I am achieving concert incubation although not achieving lucidity so sub-conscious bringing in dream signs in attempt to help my consciousness realise dream an LD. I still obviously lack energy/awareness to bring this to the fore and become lucid. Beginning to think I may be trying too hard and draining my energy that is obviously required to become lucid at concert task.

(A dream from a few years back...The dialogue is not exact, but it is just about right.)

I walk into the kitchen, holding my pregnant belly, to where my mom is making bacon. (note: I have never been pregnant.) It is the exact kitchen I had at the time of the dream.
I feel my water break and stop dead in my tracks.
Me: "Mom, my water just broke."
Mom: "That's nice dear." I walk closer to her.
Me: "You don't understand, the baby is coming!" She does not even look up at me.
Mom: "How much bacon do you want honey?" I begin to feel the baby crowning.
Me: "Mom! It is coming!!"
Mom: "Not now sweetie. I am cooking." I am so confused as to why she is not helping. I feel the baby's shoulders begin to descend. As soon as the shoulders are out the entire baby follows. It is contained in a sac which I rip open immediately leaking water on to the kitchen floor. I grab my child and place it carefully on the kitchen counter. I put my hands on my legs to catch my breath and after a few breaths I turn to my mom again.
Me: "Mom, I just had a child...here in the kitchen..."
Mom: "That's nice." He turns to me holding the pan toward me. "You want some bacon?"

I decided that one the one week break from school me and all my roommates should go to a spa (I have never been to a spa irl so I made up what I thought it was when I argued my point XD) For some reason we were going to go to a spa in Houston, TX.

dream skip, there was some kind of animated movie involving a fish getting sucked into a whirl pool, I knew in the dream that my roommate L had helped work on it.

We randomly arrive there, and for some reason have to sneak through what looks almost like a maze, but I know it is not, it is some kind of shopping center. (After awakening I realize it looks kind of like the art store "blick"). There are many people I know irl were hunting us down, and in order to make it to our vacation we had to get bay without them seeing us.

Dream skip, we are returning from vacation and an equally strange animation of the same fish in the same style plays, only it is more violent and scary.

Dream skip (pretty sure this is the next dream)

I let my roommate B know that her bird is chewing a hole in the wall (believe it or not, actually happening irl XD) I let L know, and she begins to yell at B like a crazy person. She yells to the point that I feel the need to defend her and I step in to say that is was not her fault, these things happen, we can fix it.

Not sure what these mean, they were to scattered for me to get any meaning out of it.

Dream set in some very ancient looking catacombs.

I had to travel over a lake of frozen ice to get there, but the ice was so thin that it was cracking. I had to run faster and faster as the cracks appeared under my feet, trying to avoid plunging into the water.

I am with some woman called Evelyn, and she looks like a cross between Morena Baccarin and Katherine Heigl. She seems to have lost her husband to some disease and is looking for his tomb. When she finds it, she lays down in it, and his ghost comes to her. He is real enough to be touched and heard. He keeps telling her to shush, like he is nervous to be discovered. Evelyn is overly emotional though and making too much noise, drawing her current boyfriend to the scene. He is dressed (or rather un-dressed) like the God Pan, which is rather strange, but no one comments on it. He is the caretaker of the catacomb, and he's not pleased that the ghosts are active.

I had a strange dream a while ago. I met a girl, there were heaps of people there and I teased her about sex and all. Then we're alone and talking, we get along. Our friendship continues and we even go on nature walks together and all these sorts of things. I can't remember her much now but she was amazing, what could this mean?

Non-Lucid Lucid Further Notes

I am on a large sailboat with about ten other people. We have been drifting through an endless sea for several weeks trying to find land. We are the last known survivors of the human race after an apocalyptic flood that has left very little dry land. Among the people on the sailboat are two or three guys in their thirties, a 50-year-old man with a gray beard and beer belly, his ten-year-old son, a beautiful black woman in her late twenties and her baby, , a beautiful blonde-haired woman in her mid twenties and lastly but far from least Natalie Portman. It is a babe fest on this boat . I am very happily married to the blonde-haired woman. We are newly-weds and couldn't get along with each other better. The black woman and Natalie Portman are also paired up with other men on the sailboat. Although all may appear to be full of love, the 50-year-old man and his son are hiding something. The 50-year-old man is planning on getting us all killed because first of all, he is jealous that he doesn't have a woman to be with, and secondly, he basically hates humanity and wants it to end. He has brainwashed his son into believing the same thing that he does. From now on I will call these people the humanity haters. They act like they appreciate our company but beneath the surface they have a plot to get us all killed. I am the only one who knows their hidden motives and am waiting for the opportune moment to tell everyone else without the humanity haters noticing.

For what feels like days, I pass my time by swimming, enjoying the company of others, having great meals, and making love to my wife in the sleeping quarters every night. Looking back on this dream, if this is what the post-apocalypse is like, bring on the apocalypse! The entire crew and I always have our meals gathered around a foldable table on the deck of the sailboat. Despite it being the post-apocalypse, the weather is always nice and the sun always shines down on us whenever we are out on the deck. We have elaborate meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner because we apparently have an endless stash of food that is stowed away below the deck. One dinner we have scallops, steaks, meatloaf, potatoes and other tasty dishes. I reach for the scallops, but the man who is hooked up with the black woman tells me that the scallops are specifically for humanity hater junior. All the woman of the boat are topless during this meal for some reason, and although I am turned on I still keep my cool ha ha. The man who is dating the black woman asks my wife and I how our marriage is going, and we start talking about it excitedly. As we have this conversation, the humanity haters leave the table to have a private conversation on the other side of the boat. While they are gone, I tell everyone that they are planning to kill us all. Everyone is very shocked to hear this news. When the humanity haters return to the table, everyone is silent and giving them suspicious looks. The next day, we are all talking out on the deck and humanity hater senior suddenly asks if he could have all of our attentions. He says that there is a place that he knows of called "God's Thumb". He tells us that we should sail to this place because "it is the most amazing place of the ocean" and that "if we are looking for adventure, we have to go there". Everyone likes this idea except for me. I know that this "God's Thumb" is a dangerous place, but for some reason I keep silent (I have no idea why).

Suddenly I receive an incredibly disturbing vision. In this vision, humanity hater senior and all the women of the sailboat are in a small, dark room. The black woman, my wife and Natalie Portman are all hanging naked from the ceiling by chains that are connected to their wrists. Their legs are cut off and there is blood all over the walls. The humanity hater is laughing at their agony. The vision fades and my wife is standing right next to me on the deck. She asks me if everything is alright because I look pale and I tell her that nothing is wrong. This is a lie because obviously I am very disturbed since this vision may be a glimpse of what could happen in the future.

Next thing I know we are sailing through the part of the ocean known as "God's Thumb". We are all looking over the railing into the waters below. The water is so crystal clear that we can somehow see the ocean floor. One of the guys points out to me that he can see a land mass covered with trees and small buildings about a mile beneath the surface. I realize that this land mass used to be a coastline of an ocean before the flood. While we are looking at these land masses, we see a black and white speck that looks like it is moving at an incredible speed. It appears to be moving closer and closer to our sailboat, and the shape is growing bigger as seconds pass. After about ten seconds, we realize that it is a giant whale and it intends to ram our sailboat. We panic and try to get our life jackets on, but before we can do so, the whale hits the bottom of the sailboat. The shock wave of the impact sends us flying into the air and landing in the water. Now I finally think to myself, "Why didn't I tell everyone how dangerous this place was?". We are all watching our sailboat from the water, hoping that it won't fall apart so we can get back in it. All of a sudden, Derek, Eric and a few of my other friends appear on the deck of the ship. It looks like they are playing Texas Hold Em' around a poker table. This action somehow causes the ship to tip over and break apart. Humanity ends because of a poker game. I wake up.

Dream - Lucid

I had some really weird dreams last night, but I can only recall bits and pieces. I know the first one was much longer than what I remember.

I was at Hogwarts with some friends, 3 of which I remember vividly being Courtney, Stephen, and a girl I was acquainted with in high school, Ashley. We were outside, overlooking a lake. We were all herded, by what I can only assume to be Death Eaters, into these carts with hard, dark red plastic seats. We were crammed in there, waiting to die. They were picking us out one by one to kill us. I was crammed between Courtney and Stephen. We were supposed to be quiet, but none of us were. There were actually a lot of people in cheery moods, which didn't make sense, because we were all there to die. I looked at the few rows in front of me, and saw Ashley laughing with her friends.

I knew what had to be done to kill the Death Eaters, and that was to create a tornado with some sort of spell, and it would wipe them all out. I knew Hermione was supposed to do it. Throughout the dream, I was concerned that this wouldn't be done in time to save us.

Then, I was in the middle of the lake, hanging onto this huge rock formation. All the rest of the people that were previously crammed into carts were in the water, brutally killing these huge fish. I was being forced to be in the water with all of the fish remains. I tried to stay atop the rock formation, but I fell backwards into the water, and saw all these huge fish eyeballs and fish heads.

Then, I think my brother casted the tornado spell, possibly with Hermione's help but I can't be sure, and everyone was fine. I remember a female death eater in the middle of casting the death spell on someone. "Avada Keda-" is as far as she got before the tornado hit her.

Not sure if this was part of the same dream or not, but...

I was in my middle school gym in my old volleyball uniform. I was standing by the door, waiting for the star player of the team to get out of the car. I was relieved that the Hogwarts incident was over. The star player pulled up in a white car, got out, and entered the gym. The coach, my old high school volleyball coach, Mrs. S, was dressed in one of our uniforms. She was talking to the star player and I. I got tired of listening, and since I wasn't going to play anyway (I'm not sure what the situation was, I think it was the last game or something), I just walked away. The coach broke off and just watched me walk away. I found my mom.

So this was disturbing. It was a nightmare not in a fearful sense, but the contents of the dream caused me great discomfort, even upon waking.

I had a dream that for reasons unknown to me, I was supposed to move a dog and 2 cats from a cage they were in, to a blanket outside on the grass. It was horrific because they were sliced in half, yet still ALIVE AND BREATHING, their two halves only hanging on by their spine, which was not cut. So as I'm holding the cats i feel their two halves in various weights shifting up and down in my grasp but they're light so I kept them pretty steady. At one point when I returned for the dog, one of the cats got up and was trying to walk and his guts were slowly drooping out. The dog, being heavier was insanely disturbing and depressing to move because I couldn't seem to find a balance in his two halves, they just kept shifting up and down between my arms and his wiggling was not helping.

I wanted nothing more than to kill them to put them out of their misery, but I just couldn't sum up the ability to do it. I woke up feeling nauseous and with a greater sense and urge for living with a vegetarian or vegan diet. The dogs whimpers still haunt me.

Last night's dream was so weird. I remember I went to a meeting where I was being honored for something. Girls were screaming my name saying nice things to me about how they have always liked me and how I have always been the cutest boy and such. Later, girls began to hold up cards or something still giving me compliments.. don't remember too much of this dream and don't understand what is was about.
Anyways, non lucid

In this dream, I live in a small uphill village. It reminds me of some strange merge of a Swiss and Czech village. Swiss for the surrounding nature and Czech for the structure of the village and the type of architecture. There is a curvy road running up the village and old houses scattered around.
I know that there is some sort of voting taking place. I am not sure what for. I remember getting an information (I think on TV) said by a man, that "there are two parties competing for our votes - Christmas and Easter". I am laughing at this in my mind! :-D thinking 'what a nonsense' (strangely don't realise it is a dream!).
I am walking up the street, when I notice a girl and a guy. He is wearing green shirt and a green some other green top over that. I see them running across the street, running into a house and then out on the other side. I am standing dumbstruck there, trying to make some sense of it (yet no dreaming realization). I carry on walking up the hill. I get to a village train station. There are several lines. One train passes by fairly quickly.

Then I am still in the village. There is Dustin, the dog we used to have. Small, sand-like colour, really cute dog. I remember that he always runs away as soon as he is off the dog-lead. We are taking him for castration. I think it has something to do with it. We are coming from the vet-hospital. I am looking at the wound. It looks just like a small white spot.

January 31, 2011
NON-LD
Dream I; I am a secret agent and we are on a mission to save animals from the forest. There are Mankeys (Pokémon), trying to steal away some animals, so I go out and be brave. I hide the animals behind a tree stump and stand in front of it, looking at the Mankeys. “Hey there. What are you looking for?” I ask them, trying to get on their good side. “An animal about this big and this wide, it’s blue and small.” They reply. I shake my head and make a small, “Tsk tsk” noise. “I think they just got taken away to a zoo.” “Oh, okay. Thanks for your help.” They reply and walk back to their van.
Dream II; I smile and walk back to where I came from, looking at a street. The agent bus was there, so I got on it and looked at my friends. “I warded them off, I’ll try to catch up to them later.” I say, sitting on a small seat. A few minutes later, we can see a small town. “Hey, I think I see them!” I shouted. “Go get them!” Everybody cheered. I smiled and hopped off the bus, going toward the bus that had the Mankeys on it. The bus stopped and I climbed aboard, holding a small burr I picked up from the ground. “Hey! I think you dropped this a while ago.” I smile. They chatter in confusion. “You know, when you were looking for that animal? It’s a weapon that can be thrown and it sticks to the enemy.” They all nod and smile. “Thanks!” They respond. I get off the bus and walk back to my own bus.
We arrive at the town and I get off. All the kids from my school are there! I smile and look at all the buildings, looking around. I saw this guy named Richard; he was sitting on the roofs of people’s houses. I approached my friend and asked, “Why does that guy always sit on the roofs?” She responded, “I don’t know, he just does.” I shrugged and entered a building. I don’t know how I got up there, but I appeared sitting on the window sill outside. I stayed there and looked up at the sky. Richard appeared sitting next to me and he smiled. “You know, I was thinking about getting you two a birthday and Christmas present.” I didn’t say anything and stared into the sky. “I was going to get you fdklfjdhglkdjsair and pehgislfjbeng.”
[That’s what I heard him say, all gibberish to me. I woke up in the middle of the sentence, how rude am I? :-)]
