non-lucid

1

I feel like I'm back at school. I see a big drop with a trampoline in the middle, leading to a balcony on the other side. I really want to jump it! But I feel this would be terribly naughty, and the head teacher is just over there...

Part of me knows this is a dream and that my mind conditions the people around me, so I use the logic 'well if I do it confidently enough, then everyone else will share my confidence and everything will be okay'. I also have supreme matrix style jumping power, which I then use to launch onto the trampoline and bounce to the other side. Sweet! Head teacher seems impressed. I clear the gap back and forwards a couple more times.

I'm finishing up at some kind of fitness class in what looks like my old school hall. I'm trying to pack my bag, but it's all messed up and I keep feeling I've forgotten stuff and that everything about this bag is wrong. I eventually feel ready to leave. A guy makes a comment about the band Dream Theater, and I say excitedly "I saw them last night!". I hadn't actually, but my dream self seemed to believe he had. I wave bye as I leave and they all wave back, including what looked like a little girl trapped inside a glass jar. I briefly consider this to be a little weird, but shrug it off and continue.

I then remember that my friends Beth and Catherine were with me, but they seem to now have ran off without me. I find this quite stressful! I wander round looking and desperately trying to figure out where they could have gone. I then give up, and decide to figure out how to get home from this market town in the middle of no where I seem to be in. I calculate it will take about 2 hours of bus journey.

At the bus stop, I start messing about with the stuff in my bag again. I can't shake the feeling that there's something wrong with this bag! Where's that thing I'm looking for? And why can't I remember what on earth that thing is that I'm looking for? I then notice I'm only wearing my underwear. This bothers me slightly, but I assume there's probably a good reason for it.

I then find myself in a house. I notice my friend Lee, and then see Beth one of the girl's I was looking for! We eat spaghetti bolognese together. Some others are eating what looks like gnocchi? I start telling Beth about the lucid dream I just had...

Notes

This dream followed a lucid dream. There were many times I was potentially close to becoming lucid it seems, if I could just stop and reflect instead of explaining stuff away!

I was waiting my uncle on the road in the neighborhood. The weather was gray. There was nobody on the road, only some cars park. I decided to get back in the house.
.........CUTOFF of the Dream...........
I'm in the garden, I was trying to see if I don't see his car from far. I get out of the garden to go on the road. I heard the children of the neighbor shouting. The rain started to fall hard. I said to myself if I need to go back in the house. Then I saw the car arrive. My uncle gave me the key of his car so that I can park it in the garage.

I had a dream about this giant ice rink that had been built out of snow/igloo blocks at the edge of my subdivision. Something to do with my dad, grandfather, hot cocoa and skating around the inside. It was lit up on the inside.

For some reason, I find it hard to stay invested in this NLD. It was sort of lacking content.

...

Something to do with being on a train, somehow connected to this dream. I do seem to dream about trains an awful lot given I've only ridden one a couple times in my life.


I was with a crew undergoing a manned survey of Mars. Our lander touched down not far from [One of Mars' largest volcanoes]. We had a crew of six people total. I don't recall any names, genders, etc. Just that there were six of us.

The lander came equipped with both an Ariel surveyor plane as well as a mobile analysis lab. Each one of these vehicles could hold two people, and the remaining two would stay with the lander.

I got put on the crew to fly the airplane. Now the areal surveyor was launched from some kind of rail cannon on the lander so that it would have enough speed to fly in the thin atmosphere. But when It launched us there was some kind of malfunction and we had to land asap.

I saw that we were going 411. Miles per hour? Meters per second? I don't know. I tried to gently nose the plane down. I was somehow able to see third person perspective and see that the landing gear was about to touch down in the red sand.

We touched the ground briefly before flying off a sand dune like a ramp. I saw that our speed was now 123. We hit the ground, but one of the landing gear hit a rock and we rolled over. The air surveyor was destroyed, but me and the other astronaut somehow survived.

But we had a new problem. We now only had the life support in our space suits to support us. Even if the mobile lab drove at full speed, they wouldn't be halfway to us by the time we were long dead.

I actually became a little bit lucid here, and remembered that I had the ability to summon Sir Chuggingloaf. (Read this ancient dream to know who that is.)

I don't know why I was thinking of that character, since he has only appeared one other time and it was over 10 years ago, but sure enough, I saw him fly down from the upper atmosphere. Only, in this dream, he wasn't a train, but rather a spaceship. Rather than a train gondola, he had a rocket booster and wings. He also had windows in his side.

A ramp opened up. Somehow, I was now with a large party of astronauts (10+ of them) and we were all getting inside of the flying bread spaceship. I didn't get in.

I also remember him looking like a cartoon superimposed on what had thus far been a very realistic looking dream. He smiled and flew off into the sky with everyone inside of him.

Interpretations: Any dream that involves talking bread spaceships is beyond my ability to interpret. I do seem to dream of being on Mars a lot. I wonder why that is.

Black: Non-dream
Blue: Non-lucid
Red: Lucid

Dream 1 - In a desert (LD)
I wasn't sure if this was a lucid dream at first, my recall for it was quite bad... I thought that I might have just had a dream about a lucid dream or something O_O. I was walking up a desert road, I think I looked at my hands and noticed I was dreaming, I felt that it was a really strong lucid dream (which sucked because I can't really remember it and it was early in the night so it didn't last long) which was stable and had a high amount of clarity. I decided to test my control of the area around me, at first I tried to shape a small pyramidal dune of sand into a large square/rectangle. This was extremely hard for some reason, but I was managing to slowly control the shape of the sand dune... I think I woke up shortly after this because like I said, it was quite early in the night and the dream stage didn't last long.

Dream 2 - getting tested by an eftpos machine
So I remember being in the geology department of a building, it seemed to be a white-coat kind of lab. I had bumped into another geologist who was bald or something. A time/space jump occurs and I'm in front of a eftpos machine, except it seems to be testing me, and the bald guy is going through a similar experience. I get 18/19 for my score, he gets 13/17 (didn't notice that the total amount you could earn wasn't meant to be different sadly, didn't get lucid ). His son comes up and helps him out and punches in some buttons, I don't remember much after this.

Dream 3 - Unknown
There WAS another dream that I fully remembered having between the dreams above, but I completely forgot it randomly before >_<

+(f) doing something with somebody somewhere (hah!) just….couldn't…recall

+ observing and pointing out interesting architecture on a bus ride "they don't make them like that any more!", crazy architect building; I write a fake review/article, then rewrite it with a real quote from a source

I'm riding in a (bus?), looking at a very interesting building to the left, tall, probably 30-40 stories, with a number of multi-floor ornamental "shaped" areas, with large (golden?) ornamental structures built on to it. There is a much more narrow tower immediately to the right of the building. The tower has a large open "belfry" structure. I point out this building "Hey look at that building to the left".

To the right, up towards the hills, is a glimpse of the "crazy architecture building" built by those wacky university architects.

+ (semi?) childhood home: turn down the lights in my room, go flying from parents' balcony

I'm in my room in my childhood home, I'm at the window, I realize the lights in the room are not fully turned up to I look to the light switch on the wall, see the rheostat round dial [false memory my room had a simple on/off switch], move to it and turn it up the rest of the way.

I want to go flying, I leave my room & walk down the hallway to my parent's bedroom and enter, all lights are off and it's pretty dark in there. I see some objects on the floor. I go to the door to the balcony and things get vague here, I seem a bit trapped/blocked by the curtain, I have some weird thoughts(?), but I eventually make it through to the balcony outside . To the right is a view in the distance of a bay of water with ships in it, it's dark twilight. I hear the voice of my mother to the left, down on the house's main deck, and I also hear my father's voice coming from inside the room (or approaching it). "Great," I think, I don't want them to see me flying, my opportunity may be ruined. I make a short movement towards re-entering the house but decide in a flash, "screw it, I want to fly!". So I take a quick leap into the air (I have a moment's thought about falling), and I fly/swoop down the hill, fairly low to the ground (about 6-10 feet off the ground).

As I pass the far corner of our property I hear my mother's voice back from the house saying "oh, look, there's a deer running through the front yard" (I think she has caught a glimpse of me flying and has misinterpreted it as spotting a deer). I continue flying, it is daytime, and I'm flying/gliding fairly low (6 feet-12 feet) above the ground. I'm flying through gardens with colorful large flowers like trumpet vines. I pass over some unknown woman in her garden, I think she'll see me for sure but she does not react. I continue hearing some commentary on my flight from my mother.

I was going to look for Eye but changed my goal to looking for Kiro since i thought it might be easier.

I woke up in my old room and Santa Claus was next to me. I left him and went to look for Kiro but found some of my family members listening to old music in a room instead. I asked if someone could call Kiro for me and a lady suggested that I play a music that might signal him to come here. I put the music inside the CD machine and heard a lady singing. It was nice but it felt like i was wasting my time so i turned it off. I Kept telling someone else to bring Kiro and they told me to wait in the corner. So i did. The person i told was cleaning the room than lay on the ground to reach under a wall to get something.

The dream than shifted and i was now in a daycare room filled with kids. Many of them were misbehaving so I and the others there did our best to calm them down. But it did not work until our boss came in. She was walking fine but than i noticed her face was really pale and a different color. Than suddenly she collapsed. I and another lady rushed to help her and someone else went to call 911. I quickly fanned her hoping she would wake up. But it did not wake her up. I got up after that for some reason i don't recall than turned back and noticed she was gone.I thought someone must have taken her somewhere else when i wasn't looking than went to go look for my fish sandwich lunch that i put away.

I found a lady who i'm familiar with at my workplace and she said that the doctors determined that the real reason she collapsed wasn't because she was sick with the flu. She had cancer.It made me sort of anxious to hear her say that so i left to go look for my lunch and cup of coffee but somehow ended up on a street near a airport.
I flew up than back hoping i wouldn't get hit than landed on the ground. But as i was walking the dream shifted and i was now viewing a group of cartoon looking reapers. They didn't have their weapons with them though and they were speaking in Japanese. They looked harmless and it seemed like they were getting ready to take the school bus to go on a trip or something like that.

-Knock on door
-look through peep hole (its really low for some reason, like knee level)
-see its my cousin and we greet each other
-we spent the rest of the dream just shuffling and looking through stuff under my brothers and my bed.

-Large locker room/shower
-on my friends phone that has this "cancer" app that can see where in your body there is cancer with like a thermal camera or something.
-I guess he didn't know i was using his phone because he came up to me later and asked if I wanted to try his app.

Me and my friend were driving our bikes fast on the freeway, when I realize that there was a rope which was trap in my front wheel. I told to my friend to continue without me, whereas me, I'm going to get a scissor to cut the rope. I turned around and rush with my bike like crazy. There wasn't a lot of vehicle on the freeway. I left the road and went in the forest, when I'm stop by some guys(they didn't look like European people), they were speaking creole with me. I try to tell them if they have a scissor. I was scare that they tell me to get off my bike. One of them went to get the scissor and gave me, I cut off the rope. Now the rope was cut, how will I get out of here and my friend must said why am I taking so much time. I try to turn around slowly, once I was in the good position, I turn on the engine and rush like a flash, I was feeling free, I turned back to watch them and shouted loud so that they could hear me: ''F.... You M.....F....ker'', but another group of creole stop me.......

First dream - fragment

I was using my laptop. I was browsing the web, and downloaded wierd version of minecraft. When I turned it on, I saw strange background and heard ominous music.

Second dream - fragment

I saw this part as an ASCII roguelike. With family we arrived at Siberia by wagon. Then my view changed to first person. We built houses and beds. Next day we were attacked by a horde of monkeys. They stolen everything we had, and the ice plains melted into jungle. I was running around, looking for food and monkeys. In the end I came back home with nothing.

2/27/2015

I saw myself appear on the bed i was sleeping on and was thinking about how I wanted to enter a dream lucid during my nap time. I couldn't move and slowly started to fall a sleep.I saw black darkness than sudennlly light began to appear.After that I flew onto a platform above a football field.I wanted to see Dawn again and began shouting his name. In the distance i could see someone running on the field. It was a guy with Dawn's long white hair. Even though he didn't look like Dawn I still felt like it was him anyways.I hugged him but got too close to him and forgot that i didn't want myself to do that anymore. Suddenly I was pulled from him and the dream world began to break apart. I was like "NOOOOOOO!'. Than i saw blackness and slowly started to appear in a room that looked just like the room i was sleeping in. I was curled up to the side of the bed, heard static and a mechanic random sound(sounded like a coin being tossed in a room with lots of reverb) and my vision was black and white and a little bit blurry. I kept telling the dream i wanted to see Dawn but it didn't listen to me. I couldn't move and felt so stuck. Sudenlly i heard a dream character walk into the room. It was a lady. She said "So you want to be like a sixteen year old that wants to go and party huh!?"Than she started to beat me with a blanket and her hands while i was paralyzed."Well now i don't have to worry about this anymore!!I'm sick of it!!" she said as she kept hitting me. I kept thinking of the dream becoming more kinder to me but it gave me nothing and than the lady punched my stomach. I was real mad now. "OK!!!!IF YOU DON'T WANT TO CHANGE THIS DREAM THAN I WILLLL!!!" I said than broke free of the hard paralysis. The lady began screaming and fell on the floor.She was a chubby, dark skinned woman with a apron on. I sounded sort of like a monster when i shouted at her too. I than used my mind and hands to grab the lady and twist her and squish her.She shrunk and was distorted as i was doing this to her and than changed into a twisted blanket. I felt that the dream world was going to throw me out for this but i didn't care. Than it did just that and i woke up.((ヾ(≧皿≦ﾒ)ﾉ))How could you be so cruel to me dream world!?....Perhaps this was because i did what i wasn't suppose to do to Dawn though. Even so she didn't have to hit me!!*flips a table*Ok I'm done raging now.

-I was with my cousins arguing for something that supposedly took us back in time. They didn't want to let me stay in the past even though i told them it was none of their business. Than suddenly we started hitting and pushing each other and the room became a mess. I noticed my missing gold earring on the floor near a broken painting but decided to just leave it there since it didn't matter to me anymore.Than a girl from the past came to me and told me that if i was going to stay in the past i needed to take my medicine. She showed me a tea spoon with a white thick fluid and told me to drink it. I said no at first because i didn't think i had to. But when she said i would get really sick if i didn't, I just drank it. After that i felt like it wasn't worth it if i was just going to get sick. So i decided to leave back to my own time.

-I was inside my backyard with others and was running from a mosquito or something that was there.I don't recall when this happened though.


-I was inside a building thinking of what else to add to my drawing of my dream characters and I. Than ran down the stairs and ended up inside my house.Inside my house was a bunch of cartoon looking animals and creatures. A pink cartoon looking cat started to tell me a story and the story of the scene began to show itself in front of me. "One day a group of mermaids were playing with a girl under the ocean."said the cat.It looked like they were tickling her under water and she was holding her breathe but still smiling."Than she met a guy and didn't want to leave back to her mom who wanted her to come home." said the cat.Than the scene stopped playing and i was in the downstairs hall of my house."If I was the guy i would have told her to go home and left her" I said. Than one of the creatures said they would have too.After it replied i said that i felt bad for her and the cartoon cat said it felt bad for her too. Than as we were walking i started to get thoughts of a dream journal.

JadeGreen's dream journal began to come to mind. A entry about kindergarten began to present itself. Than the cat caught my attention and began to show me a quiz on the internet.I thought about how it looked like a quiz JadeGreen would create because there was a guy with a buzz cut,dressed like a adventurer to the side of the quiz that looked like he was drawn in Jade's anime art style. I began to take the quiz but some of the questions were upside down. There were pictures to the side so i guessed what the question was. I saw a ax and other weapons near the question i was looking at and guessed itwas about what weapon do you prefer. I thought about it for a while than chose the staff. I'm not a fan of slicing people into pieces. Than i scrolled down and it asked what power would i want. To the side it showed how the power would be used by a chi-bi person that looked like a maple story character. I didn't see any healing ones so i chose the power that lights you up all around and you hit the ground so the power/force is shot all around you and hits the enemies. Than i went down again and saw a weird rectangular box with mini trees, a mini skull on the top and a health bar that was red and kept going down. The skull kept opening and closing its mouth and apparently was taking down my health." What am i suppose to do!?" I asked trying to click around the trees. But my health kept going down. Than i started to click below the rectangular area and two small wooden smiling mask popped up. The skull disappeared and my health was fine now. I thought about how fun this was but woke up before i could go on to the next.

Last night was incredibly bizarre. Kind of cool, but kind of weird.
I remember being in my grandmothers house in her back bedroom. She had a full length body mirror. I looked in it and my face was decaying. My skin was greenish, my nose was gone, I just looked like a total mess. Then I remember hearing a voice coming from the front room. You're going to laugh, captain Barbosa from pirates of the Caribbean. I couldn't quite hear what he was saying but I was scared to death he was going to kill me, so I climbed out the bedroom window and ran to my house. For some odd reason I ended up back in my grandmothers back bedroom with a huge suitcase. I got this hair brained idea to dress as a pirate, so I did. I was all decked out in pirate attire, all except for the hat. Right before I could find my hat, Barbosa burst through the door and told me to take him to my treasure lolol. Next thing I know I'm in a cave somewhere lying about this treasure I knew nothing about. I woke up laughing at the ridiculousness of my dream, only to lay back down and have an even goofier one. In my second dream, I was standing in line with my father at the DMV, I all of a sudden hear this man whimpering behind us but I didn't turn around. Then all of a sudden my dad raised his hand and said "Mrs. Thompson, Patricia needs to go to the bathroom" I turned around and the whimpering man started to waddle to the bathroom with a huge shit stain on his pants...I guess he was Patricia...then I was in this huge room where they make you take your written drivers test. There was this young couple there who bragged about failing their test 20 times. I woke up shortly after. I almost didn't want to record these dreams because they're so ridiculous, but a dream is a dream lol.

A nightmare where I was looking into the mirror in my bathroom. The skin on my chest/stomach peeled off and my internal organs started to fall out. I remember my heart looked artificial and had some kind of gauge or pressure meter on it. I screamed and woke up.

wtf I haven't had a nightmare of any sort in like two years...

After that, I wanted to go back to sleep to see if I could snag some lucidity before morning. Some disjointed fragments led into a couple of congruent LDs.

-Something to do with my college dormitory. For some reason I was wearing golden earrings in the dream, somebody commented on them, saying that they looked good. I asked myself when I got piercings and could not recall. I didn't become lucid though.

-Something to do with drawing and a tin of colored pencils.

-I was playing LBP3. I was designing this level where you would run across all of these little white platforms that were moving and stuff was firing on you. There was also this big metal bridge that would unfold when you got close to it. A was there, commenting on how he liked the game-play aspect of it.

I was at the community pool in my cousin's hometown, though almost nobody was there except me and someone else. I was just chilling in the shallow end of the pool when this bully character approached the two of us. He picked us both out of the water and said he wanted to try and drown us in the deep end.

I tried to punch him but it didn't do much.

I elbowed him in the face and managed to swim away. He followed me out of the pool. I turned around to fight him. He was buff and had long blonde hair and short thick facial hair and blue eyes. It was also at this moment that I noticed that I was still wearing gold earrings. I thought this might put me at a disadvantage because he could grab them.

I ran in and kicked him in the stomach. He reeled back. He was almost at the edge of the pool. He came back and tried to punch me. I ducked under it and put my leg behind his. From there it was easy to just push him into the water.

He looked at me angrily. I thought he was going to just get out of the water and attack me again, but he seemed to just be waiting there. But this other DC showed up. He looked like Santa Claus except his outfit was all white.

He said something about learning to be submissive and recognize your own inferiority. He said that this was meant to be some kind of dream test and that I had failed it.

For some reason, I was just boiling mad at this Santa/Guide character. I started screaming at him that people shouldn't be taught to be inferior and submissive, and that you can't mold people into what you want. They will do their own things and form their own identities and moral codes and there is nothing that you can do about it.

I got so mad at him that I FA'd in my living room. But it felt smaller. All of the furniture had been pushed into one end of the room an there was a small Christmas tree in the room with some presents under it.

This seemed strange to me. I did a nose pinch RC. Lucid dreamin' baby. I had almost become fully lucid in the last section, but now I could think clearly. I still wanted to see Manei. I started calling her name, expecting her to simply be upstairs or something. No reply. I thought to go outside, but saw that it was very, very dark. The kind of darkness that would make me lose the dream.

I then realized that stabilizing would probably be a smart idea. I rubbed my hands together.

"I will not lose the dream until I have accomplished one of my goals!"

I then thought to try teleporting to the beach location. In the past my teleportation efforts have failed miserably, so I was gonna have to really commit. I closed my eyes and started visualizing the beach in Puerto Rico that my family goes to every year.

I started to see it in the center of my vision. I thought that I should start engaging my other senses. I tried to picture the sound of waves crashing on the shore, the smell of saltwater and the sun on my face.

However when I opened my eyes I was still in my home, but things were different. I saw that it had gotten considerably lighter outside. It still appeared to be foggy and gray, but I could make out the street and plants. The entire backyard had been taken over by a massive jungle/forest. There was a huge vine with massive mango-like fruit growing on it. (When I say massive Mango-Fruit, I am talking 3-4 feet across.

I made my way out the front door to get a better look at what was outside. The dream's clarity started revving up to very high levels here. I saw that half the neighborhood had been overtaken with these huge gnarled branches. There seemed to be pieces of a structure in there, as if it were made of I-beams.

I followed the gnarled branches up to see a huge tree, literally miles tall. It seemed as though as it got farther away, it looked less and less like it was made of wood. It seemed to be made of stone or metal, and had complex designs of overlapping circles and rune symbols on it. It was supporting the sky, that appeared to be solid, made of high-technology structures (like the surface of the death star). There were windows or some kind of white lights scattered about on the surface. There seemed to be places where it had rusted through though and real vegetation was growing through it, both on the tree and the sky.

The sky had to be 50 or 100 miles up. There were layers upon layers of thin, misty clouds surrounding the tree trunk. The thing that I remember the most was the temperature. It was sooo hot and humid in this dream.

I couldn't believe the enormity of these metal trees, and I had to check them out for myself. I started flying, but for some reason moved backwards very quickly. I stopped and stumbled.

"No, I want to go UP!"

I started flying again, but I still went backwards. I lost control of the ability to fly and got pulled out of the scene. Everything started shrinking and getting darker. I saw more of the trees supporting the sky ceiling for a moment. It looked like some of them were just tree stumps.

Somebody told me that this was a forest that had been cut down by giant cosmic beings from the seventh dimension, millions of years ago, but it was growing back now. I saw my town on a remove section of earth, like a SimCity tile, floating in nothing.

I was in a black void. White cubes were scattered about. I was still pulling backwards at increasingly fast speeds. I thought I might hit one of the cubes, not being able to see where I was flying.

I woke up.

Interpretations: I really have to come back to these after I've had some proper time to think about it.

2.28.15

Last night bed 7pm-3:20am

FA at 3:20
I set my coffee maker on auto, to start brewing at 3:20. I wake up to it brewing. My cat jumped on the bed as usually, I'm petting him and saying I have to get up now. But I lounge, and I guess fall asleep again for a second I wake up, and keep petting my cat, thinking it's time to get up coz coffee alarm. Then I hear it brewing. It happens normally, that after it finishis brewing, it still keeps heating up unless shut off, and it makes a few brewing sounds after done. So I'm thinking that's what's happening. But no, it starts to brew normally. I'm like whoa, FA, damned. I REALLY have to start RCing EVERY TIME I WAKE UP.

Monster in Romania
This was quite long and detailed, vivid. I retold it every time I woke up, but still, many details were lost by now.

I'm outside of a modern building, looking at a billboard. There is a head of a monster on it. Some kind of a dinosaur with thing on the head that looks like hair on one of the characters in Babylon5.

Funny thing, because I tried to explain that hair to someone in the dream, but all I could say that it's perpendicular to the head, stiff hair like (and I just now remembered the name - Lando from Babylon5).

Now I'm inside of that modern building. It's one story, lots of glass. We are in the visitors vestibule and we see through glass walls into the control center with lots of controlls and blinking lights. I know it's all a deceipt. This is the place where they defeated that monster and they are keeping it either alive or dead there, but the danger is not gone. They don't have it under full control.

So now the monster has escaped. We are running all over the place outside, and this is going on for a while.

Snake
I'm looking at my cat sitting outside. Suddenly I realize a huge snake is looking at him, just from few feet away. He is beautiful, yellow and bright green. His head is huge, with big yellow eyes. I wave my arms and start throwing small pebbles in his direction so he knows he is found out and so he goes away.
