non-lucid

Dream:

I was going to Antelope Canyon with my friend M. I had driven us there and now we were waiting for our tour guide. Suddenly we see V. She tells us she had just gotten off a tour but wanted to come on our tour with us. I looked at M to see how she would react. I knew she and V had an unspoken competition going on for the number of times going through Antelope Canyon among other things. M was keeping a straight face so I couldn't tell what she was thinking.

Suddenly the tour guide came. I realized that I hadn't put my hiking boots on. I also had a pile of things that needed to go back in the car. I didn't want to keep everyone waiting, so I told them to go on and I would catch up. I quickly got my boots on and took the stuff to the car and locked it. As I headed to find the others I noticed that I had left another pile of things I needed to put in the car. I picked them up and went back to the car...only to find I had locked the keys in the car. What would I do now. I couldn't take all this stuff with me on the hike. But I also couldn't leave it behind unprotected.

I finally found that one of the car doors hadn't shut all the way, so I was able to get in and get my keys and lock it again. I rushed off to find my friends.

Typical dream problems...

I had a bad non-lucid. My first husband's dad told me that my ex died & my husband was comforting me in the dream. I woke up sad, even though he did unforgivable things to me & my kids there will always be some connection to him. I did ask God to forgive him for his sins after I woke up just in case this was a kind of sign that this will happen..... I have a fever right now & have a million of things to do to prepare for my trip which I can't talk about yet to people about. Being sick is really bad timing.

I have been trying to prep for:
Advanced Task i - Find platform 9 and 3/4 at Kings Cross Station and run through the wall. (WaltersDreams)
Advanced Task ii - Create an imaginary friend in the dream that no one else can see or interact. (Sensei)

I added this video for the Platform 9 & 3/4:

https://youtu.be/KWcxgrg4eQI

Still having trouble inserting video so if someone could help with that, it would be nice. I chose the insert video & put the link in and got this which I don't think will display more than the link. Sigh.

I had this dream a few days ago and then last night I had a continuation of this dream.

So i was walking down the street from my college and this person in a black coat, who had his hood on and it was so dark under the hood I couldn't see their face, walked up to me, handed me a piece of paper then ran away. I unfolded it and it said "the path to the fourth dimension" and it gave me directions.

So i decided to follow them and it led me to this huge church but it wasn't a traditional church with a main room and pews, it was just like a mansion. The walls were a deep blue color and everything else was gold, the chandeliers, the doors, the banisters, etc. I took a few steps inside and someone came over to me and asked if i wanted to join their church and i declined and said i was just passing through. The person gave me a "i know what your doing" smile and said "explore as you wish" and then walked away.

I was still following the directions so i walked down some stairs and then walked out a completely glass door. I was outside behind the church now and it was about midday. The directions led me across the grass to a building that looked like an academic building. I walked inside and it was just a long hallway and the ceiling was tall enough to fit a giant. I walked down the hallway and the walls began to shake and a bright light from the end of the hallway was rapidly getting closer and then it enveloped my entire vision and then retreated and i was in a very small tunnel and i walked out and it was like i was back in the 18th century or something because there were cobblestone streets and carriages and old shops.

At first, i though i traveled back in time but then i noticed there were no people but there were animals that were walking and talking like humans. No one seemed alarmed that i was existing in their world. I walked into a little shop and there was a hippo at the counter, he took one look at me and said "here you need this" and handed me a rock then said "don't come back here if you value your life."

I walked out of the store confused and went back to the tunnel and walked in and the same thing happened again (the walls shook and the light enveloped my vision) and then i was back in the academic building but this time it was dark out. I was only in the other dimension for a few minutes but hours passed in the real world. I woke up after that.

Then last night i had the dream where i remember walking back to the church while it was nighttime and i walked through it then when i got outside in the back, two of my friends were running to this place down the hill, it looked like a giant outdoor party and they asked if i wanted to come with and i said no. I tried going back to the academic building but the doors were locked and i couldn't get in. I then decided to join my friends at the party but then i woke up.

Fragments

I recall several nightmare fragments. I was sneaking around abandoned and haunted buildings, dark corridoors infested with undead. I was defenseless, trying to stealthily follow a wraith in blood-red cloak.

Dream

It was in some kind of a ruined fortress filled with undead monstrosities. With group of other people I tried to battle my way through trenches and reach a lair of a hag. Skeletons were shooting with their bows from afar, trying to kill us. Avoiding their arrows, I've run up the trenches and up a hill to fortress' entrance. I tried to destroy a force field surrounding a hag sleeping in her bed, but I couldn't break through.

Suddenly I found myself in a dark room with few dudes from my class. They were grinning strangely. I had a weird thought that it's a lucid dream, what's more - a multiple one.

Then I was back at the fortress, fighting my way to a hut of a sage where I found a rod that shot with blue, spiral beam. I used it to destroy the force field and kill the hag.

Preface:
A lot of exercise lately. Allergy problems prevail, so I took benadryl last night again. My body is sore today.

Fragment
I am rubbing my arms and forearms.

DR 1

I'm with my sister, and we've been arrested. I've done something terrible (killed or hurt someone) and I am in a lineup on a platform. There are odd characters in the lineup and nobody looks like me. A few minutes later my sister is released and she tells me not to worry. She leaves for a while, and I can see her- talking with her children and my mom. I start to wonder if things will be okay, and if I will make it out. I am still standing on the platform, waiting for someone to tell me what my fate will be.

The next thing you know, the lighting changes and the whole platform moves to a mall. We are in the middle of the mall, and I am still on the platform. I climb down. We are very close to a McDonald's and my sister has bought the kids some food. They are running around excitedly, and then she tells me she has a surprise. Its a little dog- tiny puppy that is brown and black. I pick him up and hug him and tell them that he is so cute. I am really happy but I keep wondering if I am going to be arrested or taken away for my wrongdoings.

Preface:
Mother's Day, so i finally got some much needed rest. Hung around with my mom all day on Sunday, so a lazy day. Allergies are giving me headaches, but taking benadryl at night. Its been affecting my dreaming, though not so much the recall. I think I'm recalling more.

DR 1
I am visiting a house that, supposedly, I used to live in long ago. My mom is there with me, in the background. I walk into the kitchen and there is a huge table that appears to be a display table, with three tiers. On each of the tiers, there are red and white cakes and assorted pies. I am excited, but my mom acts as if she already knows about them, but it super happy. I am buzzing around and looking at all the old rooms.

I begin to reminisce in one of the rooms, thinking about furniture and things..because now the carpet has been pulled up and there is only foam padding underneath.

I come back to the kitchen and most of the cakes are gone. I ask my mom where they are and she tells me that she gave them away to her old co-workers. I become highly upset , so upset and start crying- telling her that she never thinks about me.

As I am crying, i go back to my "old bedroom". I notice there is a trap door in the floor. I know that there is water in the room below the door, so I don't go near it. My mom comes into the room, she's wearing Ugg boots, and she asks me if I'm ok. She notices that there is water in the corner of the room. She steps toward it and I can see that the water is above her ankles, but she is wearing boots so its ok. She goes towards the trap door. I tell her there is water underneath, but she doesn't care. She opens it and we hear like a bump- a deafening rolling noise...and then a wave of water rushes up from the floor, but then, a huge wooden table top rolls up from the door in the floor and stops almost right in front of us...then a second, and finally a third. Then, a small wooden box with a gold padlock washes in. My mom and I stand speechless. Everything is then silent.

May 10 - 11, 2016: Dream 3 of 3: I am on a beach which I initially think is on Long Island, but clearly it is not because I spy a sea turtle laying her eggs in a dug out hole just before I step on her. I conclude I am on vacation on a tropical island. I move backwards without looking to give the turtle room and privacy, and fall into yet another hole in the sand. Luckily, I fall onto the outer rim of the hole. I prop myself on my elbows and heels while still on my back and move away as if I were a crab. At my feet I see the first of many heads pop out of the sand. Baby turtles in large numbers appear from beneath the sand, blink their yellow mucus filled eyes as if the sun is too bright, and then begin to scramble off towards the water's edge. One of the babies momentarily flips onto its back, exposing his white belly in its haste to get to the water. Its tiny flippers are flapping furiously until it rights itself. All this activity comes to the attention of multiple people on the beach who have now gathered to watch. Unfortunately, seagulls have also noticed the turtles and several of the babies get snatched up and flown away. I say something aloud to the crowd about “that is how nature is.”

After a while when the activity has wound down, I go walking along the water's edge. I come across yet another turtle, but this one is fully submerged at the water's edge, head towards the sea. Her egg-laying tube is immensely long - about 2 1/2 feet. She remains fully underwater while laying her eggs in what appears to be a natural cave-like hole beneath my feet. An official uniformed conservation manager shows me what is really going on. There is a man made contraption buried into the sand for this very purpose in order to keep the turtle and her eggs safe. He opens the lid and leans it back so that I can see inside. There are 40 or so blue opalescent eggs with white streaks that look like they are made of ultra smooth, shiny, polished stone. They are magnificent. Almost jewel like. The turtle is dropping them into this "cave" at a slow steady pace.

I eventually move on and arrive at a sturdy wooden kiosk like structure at the top of the beach well away from the water. A woman and two men occupy the shady space about 6 feet off of the ground. I call up a question to the woman employee. "How is it possible for the eggs to survive underwater in the absence of oxygen?" I ask her if there is some type of metabolic process going on inside the egg that produces oxygen for the embryos. I give her an example of a carbohydrate breaking down into a simple sugar plus a water molecule and ask her if the oxygen atom from two molecules of water can disassociate then come together inside the egg to produce a molecule of oxygen? She says to me "That's a great question!" She picks up a rectangular shaped microphone from her desktop and speaks into it. "Attention.... Attention.... Attention Google." She then repeats my question into the microphone as if she is querying Siri. I wake. 5:14am.

Dream - Lucid

I decided after I woke up from this dream to jot it down in my phone so as to keep it fresh in my memory, and it worked great. I remember more of this dream than I have of any dream in quite some time.

The setting was some sort of school. We were in a classroom, and it was daytime outside. I was not a participant in this dream, but an observer. I watched this mentally-challenged kid of maybe 19-23 years of age interact with his beautiful girlfriend, the sister of a girl I knew IWL who passed away in a car accident in 2012. He was wearing a suit or tuxedo, had dark brown, short hair, and he spoke and acted slowly. The sister, Liz, loved this boy just as much as he loved her. I could see and feel how much they loved each other. The love they had was so pure, something of a rarity to be sure. I saw them together in the classroom, just sitting with one another. The boy was going to ask Liz to marry him.

Then, I saw this scene of the boy's dad teaching him how to have sex? Like the boy was on top of his dad, but it was understood by me that this was not meant to be perverted at all by either the dad or the boy. I assumed he was teaching him so he would know when the time came with Liz. This was more like a flash back, as I understood that Liz and the boy had already had sex.

Liz thought she might look fat or pregnant. This part was in my notes and I remember it, but not much about it.

There was a little more involving the boy and Liz, but I can't remember details.

Then, dream shift. I'm in a stand up shower stall with my husband. It was in a public place, but I'm not sure what kind. I looked in the full-length mirror in the shower and I was wearing a long maxi skirt and a mid-drift top. The color scheme of both was red and blue. Looking at myself while facing the mirror, my hips looked a little wider, but my tummy looked flat. Turning to the side, I could see that I looked fat or pregnant. I felt slightly exposed and uncomfortable in the outfit, as I still have baby weight on me. I wasn't sure why I was wearing a mid-drift.

Then, we were under the running water in the shower, naked. I was washing Dallas's back with my loofah. He was then lying face-down on the shower floor, and I continued to wash his back. A college-aged black girl with glasses then walked in the shower, saw us, and turned around, apologizing. She then noticed the time and said
"Oh, it's only 10:45!"
She then left the room. I guess we had until 11am to shower or something.

Created Tuesday 10 May 2016

My recall's been not so good in the past week or so. Seems I might be recovering from that slump, I hope. I mostly recalled one complete dream today, though not in its entirety. There were two others, but I don't remember anything of the first one, and only scraps for the latter one. Given a DIELD attempt, said fragment was somehow connected to the more detailed dream.

Scrap Group 1
I was wandering in a cavern or dungeon, either retrieving an artifact, or escaping some danger. Something iridescent inside. Then, a scene in or near a hotel. Afterwards, I was at outside my home during twilight, doing yard chores or something. This somehow eventually leads to the dream below.

Dream 1 - Shrink and Swim

Scene 1 - Ancient Temple Mansion
The visuals were dim. I was walking down a sidewalk by a vast, poorly lit structure, all obscured by a night sky. Many other fancily dressed people were heading the same direction. Furthermore, I was accompanied by my brother, Dwayne.

Cut to the front steps, these being three sets of very long stairs, the central one made of cement and quite wide, and the two beside it some dangerously narrow cast-iron spiral staircases. I "remembered" the place was a vast mansion owned by a celebrity family. They were holding an open house party, which, as I "knew", was a flagrant publicity stunt to blow over some big scandal of theirs. Something about the daughter having offensive tattoos. Given the other guests' jovial moods, this sham seemed to be doing its job.

Then, I notice two of the hosts peering out from a balcony way up high. The daughter and the father, respectively, the former being a blonde and generic Hollywood doll, while the latter was a grey haired, clean shaven man, a purple emblem or etching sewed on his tux jacket. A crowd cheered at the sight of them, both celebrities smiling and waving, their bright faces clearly hiding shame and uncertainty. The dad starts making announcements, thanking the guests and giving other general formalities. He quickly moves on to the tattoos, where he proclaims that they were no more, much to the roaring, impressionable crowd's delight. Oddly enough, the dad then asks for suggestions on new tattoos. Several individuals chime up some ideas or another.

My vision gets distorted, the world spinning rapidly around me, things appearing sideways and upside down and in all manners of crazy angles. I attribute this to "temporary vertigo", of all things, due to being so high up. Thus, I hurry on inside.

My brother and I wander through a wide hallway, the interior mostly of dark wood, and a fancy red carpet rolled throughout most of the floor. Cut to us entering a huge room constructed of dark brown earth, innumerable ionic columns staggered throughout the place, a very ancient Greek presentation. Unusually, two floors were crammed into the space, both having very low ceilings. This goes double for the top floor, it being too cramped to move through except by crawling, and readily accessible from random gaps in the floor. I'm sure I either heard, or sounded, some music that fit the scene, a song I think was from Tales of Destiny 2. Whatever the case, there weren't many other people around, if any.

So, we creep through the lower floor, getting somewhat lost in the column maze. Got into an argument on if, and who, should crawl to the top level to get a better vantage point. That's when I noticed an endless array of large clay pots up there. Dwayne peeked up at them, and revealed these all held a mysterious liquid. One conversation on this curiosity later, and I take a sip of the stuff without hesitation. On a glance, it appeared dense, yet was highly vaporous, and glowed a fluorescent white.

Immediately, I reel back, and the world spins around me. When I come to, I'm shocked to see that everything around me is much, much bigger. Dwayne, even more surprised than I was, notes that I was but two centimeters tall. Surely, this place was filled with magical traps! My brother lamented I might stay like this forever. I, on the other hand, relished such an exciting opportunity, thinking this more a blessing than a curse, and informed him of as much. I found it curious how he was able to hear me, but shrugged that off. Anyway, I took a ride on his shoulder, and we got the heck outta there.

My vision gets jumbled again, discorporating and realigning at random intervals. From what I could tell, I was more a mobile, sentient white gemstone than a person. Likewise, I just realized Dwayne was dressed in a tux.

So, we move on to a more lively part of the mansion. A dance club area, complete with flashing lights, booming music, and an energetic crowd. Dwayne bade we hurry through. I, however, thought to have fun in this new form. And so, I jump on the shoulders of the first random woman in sight, a woman in her mid thirties with light skin and light brown hair. I tapped, or rather, jabbed her neck to get her attention. In response, she literally brushed me off without notice, my fall slowed by a bounce on her leg. I woulda stay for more silliness, but Dwayne was striding away, and so I hurried back to him.

Then, I saw my sister, Floretta, was also following him, her hair not quite brushed well enough for the occasion. She inquired on where I was. The perfect opportunity to spook her! I hopped on her shoulder, and yelled for her attention. However, the music drowned out my voice. I tried calling to Dwayne, but no luck, either.

I'm soon warped to a different scene.

Scene 2 - Long Distance Swimming
The visuals were a bit dim. I was going up a flight of mesh stairs, surfacing from an unknown underground area. Following me was a supposed acquaintance, an unknown dark skinned guy.

We start with a conversation on swimming. Then, two others showed up from behind, one dark skinned and the other light skinned, and both having trimmed hair and black suits. These guys seemed very suspicious. They chimed in on the conversation, and made a pitch on giving swimming lessons for a "reasonable" fee. My brother, Christian, then suddenly appeared from the top level, seeming younger than he is currently, given the lack of his dreads and beard. He spoke of some variations on techniques that he knew of. Such an interruption annoyed those sleazy guys, but they tried rolling with it.

On climbing up, I arrive at a dock, a turbulent sea below a somewhat cloudy twilight. For some reason, I jump into to tides, heading out into the middle of nowhere, ditching everyone. Cut to a point where I could see a small island in the distance, the land occupied almost entirely by a squared structure. A resort, presumably, or a "mall-hotel", as I worded it at the time. Many kinds of boats and ships were docked about half a mile away. Or rather, "parked", seeing as they floated around in a file but were otherwise unattached to anything solid.

So, I headed to land, until I noticed a neon lit trolley boat heading my way. Had to dash to the "parking area" to avoid it. I rested a while, hanging on to a green jet-ski that seemed more a floating motorcycle than anything else. Eventually, landed by a busy, glassed door main entrance.

The dream slipped and vanished soon afterwards.

10/5/16
Dream 1: Wizard101, collecting spells from all different schools by fighting a bunch of people

Fragment: Something about Rasputin.

9/5/16
Dream 1: Talking with people about wizard101 spells, coming up with a battle strategy for all of us together.

Fragment: In an old car

Dream 2: My cousin was playing wizard101, my uncle had bought him all sorts of stuff within the game and he was travelling around a street fighting various sorts of enemies.

Dream 3: I was in an underground train station where the Undertaker, Martin Luther King and Morgan Freeman were involved in a huge brawl about racial stuff. The undertaker was getting hammered from both sides but was still holding his own, disposing with the fans of either side trying to get him. I think initially it was Morgan Freeman's side fighting the undertakers but after he gave up Martin Luther King appeared out of nowhere with reinforcements.

Dream 4: Out on the streets, part of a mass protest march thing, either for anarchy or communism, police eyeing us nervously.

Surprised how much I managed to write down in the morning.. I typed it out on my phone before I got up, it didn't feel like much to remember though. This will probably be the only way for me to write my dreams up now, since I'm rising at 5:30am and then I'm hustlin' and bustlin' around to get to work.

Dream
I'm outside where there's green grass around, there's supposedly 3 classes (there's 3 of us). 2 of us are running around chasing the one another, they resemble Sterling and Lana from the show 'Archer'. They're just being goofy, I kind of see things in 3rd person next to the other class character. There's something about a hedge wall they're running around, it shifts and moves places which doesn't make much sense to me. I forget how, but 2 of the classes die and I'm the last one remaining. I think how silly it is, I'm not even the strongest. The other guy was super powerful and talented for his class but I ended up being the one to live (I seem to miss them or something).

I'm in a cave now, there's a huge tombstone sized book latched across my back. I swing it off and plant it upright on the ground, then kneel before it. It has 'game-like' options displayed on it, oddly enough. Is it really a book? I'm quite powerful at this point, having gone a long way since my friends died. I'm trying to get some sort of power from here though.

Now I'm at a place that resembles my old primary school, I'm brawling with this ginger white guy but he's not really a match for me (I don't think there's anything 'power' or 'magic' related going on either). We fight 2-3 times without really going hard enough to have a 'winner'. The guy is also a real douche, like SUPER douchey.

I'm now in my house, just randomly sitting on the toilet in the bathroom with the door open (NO I'm not doing anything, the seats were down, I might have been brushing my teeth and too lazy to stand I think?). The mother of white ginger guy comes in, she's super hot and beautiful dark skinned woman, but a bit older than me (in her 30s I think? But still really hot). She gives me a bag of pills, it's supposed to be medicine for helping with my eating. Apparently she thought I had vomited because there was a bit of pumpkin in the sink. I have to explain to her that it was from when I rinsed my bowl, since I made a red curry with pumpkin in it (the bathroom is right next to my room, I don't do this but it's really plausible in RL). It's considerate of her to do that, she's nice. Much nicer than her douchey son. I get up and we walk out into the hallway, we're talking by my room and I kind of head her in there. She's in the doorway in front of me (I'm still in the hallway). I say how it's kind of her to give those to me, then say "But I'd much rather have you". She gets all bashful and blushes, I lead her further into my room intending to tease her. There's people in the house and it's broad daylight and we know we really SHOULDN'T, but it feels naughty . I start kissing her, we're in my room now and the door is wide open. We're still safe since I can't hear anyone down this end of the house. I sit on the bed and pull her onto my lap so she's riding. Kissing her again, she turns away shyly so I can't see her blushing. I make her turn back look at me, she's really pretty. We start having sex *somehow* through our clothes, enough to make us really want it but we have to stop before someone passes by. I then wake up.

Sooo yeah, from goofy start to adventure, street brawling and sexy time. Twas good.

Initially, I can tell my perception of myself has been altered. In real life, I'm a 20 year old Caucasian woman. In my dream, I was a small Hispanic child of around nine years old. I go to visit my mother. When I arrive at what is supposedly her house, it seems as if I am in Mexico.

Things at her house keep giving me a weird vibe. There are men that keep watching me, and they always make sure they are in the same room as me. I can't figure out why they seem so weird to me, so I decide to go to the bathroom to clear my head. It's the one place I am safe. As soon as I am alone, I realize that I need to get away from them or things will not end up well for me. I seize what seems like my only opportunity and climb from a window, using the toilet to get out.

As soon as I climb through the window, it's obvious I am no longer in the desert-like place that I was. I'm in a neighborhood with lots of grass and houses. I run towards the first house I see with the door open and a car in the driveway. I knock on the door as hard as I can, and a woman opens the door. I tell her I'm being followed and ask if I can come in. She lets me in and immediately shuts and locks the door behind her. I tell her everything and she tells me to go into the room with her son, as she was going to get help. She picks up the phone and walks to the kitchen and I start playing with her son in her bedroom.

Not even a minute after I calmed myself down, I hear a knock on the door and can hear one of the men that was following me. He lies to the woman that I am his daughter and that I was upset about something childish and I need to come home. She lies and says I'm not there. He tells her that he will give her $1000 dollars for her to give me up and pretend I was never there. I don't know where she goes, but suddenly I hear him coming down the hallway to her room. I try to find a place to hide, but I can't. I'm stuck.

He lunges towards me smiling very big, and then I wake up.

Dream - Lucid

I don't quite remember the setting, but it seemed dark, like night was falling or had just fallen. I was pregnant and about to have my new baby. There were people with me, but I don't think it was anyone that I know.

I then had the baby. I was holding my new baby, which actually was my daughter now being "reborn"; she wasn't a newborn, but she wasn't quite as big and strong as she is now IWL. She had more teeth than she does now though, even a few in the back of her mouth. She was clothed in only a diaper, and I wanted to breastfeed her. I put her to my right breast, which was exposed, and she began drinking, though she only took a few sips before she didn't want anymore; she wanted a faster return and my boobs weren't cutting it. I was disappointed.

I then was no longer holding her, and my shirt, a night shirt I wear often IWL, was half-soaked in breast milk from the breast she didn't nurse from. Shoulda thought about that; I know better.


~

IWL I do want to breastfeed our next child longer; circumstances were chaotic when my daughter was born, so I only got to breastfeed for 6 weeks...wasn't even really breastfeeding, but pumping as she didn't want the breast; like in the dream, she didn't get a fast enough return.

Can't wait to get my recall back up. This is a dream I had this morning so it was easy to remember. I dream so vividly every night, all night, but my recall has slipped due to life circumstances. I'll work my way back up!
