Non-Lucid Dreams

NL Dream#1:

I had a False Awakening where I started to look at dreamviews. I saw someone post about how PercyLucid uses the heat from his hands to control his dreams. I heard Dreamer's disembodied voice explain it to me further while I saw Percy acting it out in a dream. She said that his life energy would flow from his hands and he could expand his conscious awareness to embody more of the dream. I saw this golden light come from his hands to occupy space and whatever was within that space, he could manipulate as he desired. Dreamer said that it was a very powerful technique for dream control and that I should try it. I'm totally going to try it.

NL Dream#2 (fragment):

I was going to some secret club in a back alley with Dreamer. The ground was overgrown with weeds and the club looked like a cement bunker. She had bought only one ticket and I wondered how I was going to get in because I didn't have one. The bouncer guy at the entrance looked like a real creep but Dreamer wanted to be friends with him, she is very nice to everyone. She ran into the club without me and I tried to chase after her but couldn't keep up.

NL Dream#3 (fragment):

I had a False Awakening where I was writing in the dream journal for the study. I noticed that I had marked the year wrong for all of the dates (I put 2016 instead of 2015). I started to worry a little bit that I was doing something wrong and that I would mess up the study.

NL Dream#4 (should have been lucid ):

I was in a parking garage with a few people that I knew really well in the dream. They were my dream family I guess. My grandpa was Clint Eastwood, my dad was some random actor that starred in action films, and I also had a younger brother that was pretty much just a little kid DC. Grandpa Clint Eastwood was driving around the town, he was supposed to be an ex-cop. There were ambulances and police cars that drove past us, he said not to worry about it. Grandpa Clint Eastwood then began to drive very fast and very fancy-like. I knew that I had nothing to worry about because he was a pro, but my little brother was still worried. He drove us off a ramp that went over a giant river (probably about 300 feet across). The car started spinning as it went through the air and ran through this floating oil that was supposed to clean the car somehow. I remember thinking that such a thing was ridiculous and there was no way it would clean the car. The vehicle landed in the water and I jumped out before it could sink, but when I got in the water the vehicle started to float like a boat and took off towards the land. I swam after it by pushing the water behind me like it was solid.

I swam SUPER fast at mega speed and remarked to myself that there was no way that I could do that in the regular world but I never acknowledged it was a dream. Dreamer was at the shore, she began to take off her clothes to get ready for a swim. I noticed that she had a giant outie belly button and remembered that it was normally an innie. I looked away and back again and it was super long now, like an elephant trunk coming out of her tummy. She could move it around and it had a patch of fur at the bottom that resembled some nice, bushy pubes. A guy from my old lab group appeared and took off her belly button. She took it back and started trying to put it back in this now empty, black hole that was in her tummy. The guy said that he was surprised she could do that and that his belly button stuck to him like glass.

Lucid Dreams

Lucid Dream#1:

This happened really early in the night so I only remember part of it. I was lucid and hanging out with Francine Smith from American Dad. I thought that she was boring and I wanted to find Hayley Smith so that I could have dream sex with her (my usual auto-pilot lucid dreaming activity ). I tried to find her and get to her but I woke up before I could.

Lucid Dream#2:

This was another short one. I was in the backyard with Dreamer and one of her friends. She was doing something on her phone and I didn't want to bother her. I noticed that I had a huge bite on my arm and it looked super swollen. Her friend saw it and he said that it was probably a bite from a water creature. I did a reality check to make sure that it was really happening and air went through my closed mouth hole. I stood up and started to walk around while trying to think of what to do. I was really bothered by the spider bite so I popped it and white goo came out.

The dream started to fade so I stayed calm and tried to rebuild it by imagining details and engaging my senses. The dream came back and I remembered that I wanted to create a portal so that I could teleport to D.R., but I was worried about the stability of the dream. So I recited a mantra about being stable and calm but the dream ended super quickly and I woke up.

First dream

With a pack of classmates we were in an industrial area. It was cold, early morning. It was cloudy and a bit dark, the fog was covering the horizon. The place was a bit devastated. Fence was in quite bad condition, there was rust on metal elements spread all around. There were also chemical cisterns, huge, almost the height of skyscrapers. We were a bomb squad, and someone planted explosives in the middle of the front yard. We were searching for it, but when we found the bomb, we were frightened. The timer had only a few seconds before explosion. I took a body of someone else, as this person was closer to the safe zone. I saw everything from third person perspective. I jumped down from the platform, and opened the gate. It was old and rusty, and squeaked when I was opening it. I finally opened it, and jumped away, while the explosion destroyed everything, and killed rest of the bomb squad.

Second dream

I was a dark lord, taking over each settlement on the world. I took them one by one, often without unnecessary slaughter. When I ruled the world, there was only one rival to me, Devil! The world coudn't withstand two dark lords at once, so I decided to fight with it. I used magical power to give my minions angelic wings and super powers. The battle raged over the end of the world, over a gigantic pit. It ended with me being victorious, and now I was the only dark lord, ruling both earth and hell.

Third dream

My brother came back home from work in switzerland. We made a party in our house, and drunk vodka mixed with other alcohols. I couldn't feel any effect of it.

I'm being told a story. There's a man, a shapeshifter who can seem to be anyone, but when he smiles you see the shards of glass filling his mouth, grotesquely. I see the moment he'd died, falling from a horse and landing on a glass bottle full of something he'd been carrying, shattering it.

The story shifts to the woman he'd loved when he was alive. She was called a witch, and a mob took her and chained her to a tree in the forest, with a circle of some kind of wooden pegs placed in the ground to prevent the body from leaving that spot after death. Her body's left there without her head. I 'hear' the body briefly feel a dim sort of awareness of the presence of something familiar and loved nearby.

Over time, the body comes loose from the chains as it decomposes, sinks into the ground and is covered by - I hear the word 'loam', but I'm seeing moss growing over the body. The arms separate from the rest and hang from the chains. At one point, a horse that had belonged to her while she was alive comes to the tree and noses at those decaying arms, and they reach out and pat it. At another time, the body rises up from the ground and seems to dance, with those arms dancing along as if they were still attached - slightly altering how my vision works, I can see dark strings which would be invisible, manipulating the body like a puppet. That man with the mouth full of glass shards is pulling the strings.

Later, a scene in which I'm using Mephisto as a pseudonym.

(Woke up. Back to sleep.)

On a ship after some incident in which several of the crew died, the captain came to me privately to ask a question. He's under the mistaken impression that I can see the future. I don't see the future, I just have more memories to draw on to recognize old patterns playing out again. The captain asks, essentially, whether any of those who died were important - he uses the word 'cheap.' I say to him, "No life is cheap." He acknowledges that this was poor phrasing, but "I need to know-"

As he speaks, I see a go board. The point is made that certain moves will have a drastic impact on the outcome of the game, and others won't. The captain needs to know if any of the people we lost would have been necessary for this journey to succeed, in ways he can't foresee himself.

(Woke up. Back to sleep.)

I'm looking at paintings hanging on a wall, a series mostly depicting figures of the zodiac, with one in the center of a man labeled Dream.

I'm meeting with a man named Snow who'd initially tried to conceal his identity from me. He's disappointed to find I recognized him immediately. The persona he'd put on for me was this sort of affable type; the real Snow is - well, he gives the impression of being intimidating but I'm not personally intimidated, I'm just enjoying watching how complete his transformation is.

The majority of the scene after that reveal consists of a tango, during which he leads - which is different, but I find I have no difficulty following. Great fun. He's proposing some kind of deal - there's something about him recognizing the way I've been challenging myself, and how working for him would be beneficial for both of us, something about working for a greater cause, a sense of direction - but when the tango's over and he wants an answer, I just start laughing. Man, have you got the wrong guy. I'm thoroughly enjoying every aspect of his presentation - the intimidating attitude, the seriousness of the deal he's proposing, the song and dance, his whole look - it's all incredibly appealing, but I have no intention of taking it seriously.

So in my dream, Jamal big boy freshmen, was at the basement lockers and that teacher black lady whos always on third floor came up and game him a halfie in a paper napkin and i felt it and i told him that it felt a little skimp.. bu the funny/weird thing was that i gave it to him right away because i was conscious of what happened with my dad and i didn't want to associate with it anymore. and when i woke up it just made me really beleive that i'm distancing myself from the whole weed thing, if my subconscious self doesn't want to associate with it than my conscious self will be less likely to right? either way scene kinda changed and we were all in the 3rd floor caf just sitting around the back corner tables in a circle with big boy and i dont remember what we were talking about.

I didn't prepare too much to try and achieve a lucid dream last night, not like this past week where I spent about an hour thinking about having one. I did have one last night after falling asleep a few minutes before 2 AM.

Like many other of my dreams, I was back home when I first realized I was dreaming. It was already dark out, which is one of the scariest moments I noticed in my dreams. I had this sudden urge of fear that haunted me while gazing around the parameter of my home. It was really dark and there was nobody else with me. I was alone and afraid.I knew there was something out to get me, but I just wasn't sure when or how they'll catch me. Something was bound to happen if I stood a little while longer.

I hovered above my backyard and noticed my neighbors backdoor lit up by a lamp just above the door. My first thought was to head there in hopes that I would find someone who could help me throw these feelings of creepiness away. I disapproved of it and immediately flew towards the side of the my house out towards the front yard. My flying abilities were weak at the time. I wasn't able to ascend to a higher position until I got enough run speed but as soon as I did, I quickly flew out of the backyard and landed on the front yard on grass.

I began to calm down a bit, though still a little scared about what might happen next. That's when I was reminded that there was one way I could make my fears go away. A meteor. I wanted to summon a meteor. I wanted a big ball of roaring fire to come hurling through earth and destroy everything and everyone in it. I raised my right hand up towards the sky and ordered the dream to give me that meteor. Moments later, the meteor came hurling down earth and big waves of fire came mowing down everything and everyone across my field of vision. What happened next is a mystery. I woke up to yet another dream(after waking up and falling asleep again).

This time I appeared to be inside my bedroom, along with both of my parents drunken out of their minds leaning against a wall while on the bed. I laid there right next to them, drunk as well. We were all just laying there having a good time until one of my dad's friends came walking in to the home for a visit. I didn't really want to talk to him at the time but seeing how I was drunk, I decided that perhaps I'll have a few good laughs and have a good night. I placed my drink down nearby and followed both my parents out the door. When I walked outside, I noticed two kids sitting on the couch watching television with my dad. They were my dad's friends. They looked bored out of their minds. I went up and talk to one of them but they didn't seem to care about what I had to say. It was a good think I was drunk, so it really didn't matter.

I then walked over to the kitchen where I see my older sister and mother. My mother was sitting at the table near the backdoor enjoying her drink while my sister was near the sink cleaning some of the utilities. At that moment, somehow, it struck me. I became lucid. I'm not sure how but, I felt this sudden urge to do something insane(one of them being too strange to type). One of the things I done second was to try and summon a dream character. Unknowingly, that's when the dream felt like it was slipping away from me. I immediately used the spinning technique to help me prolong my dream time. I turned around and around like a top as I felt the movements of my dream body move in a vibrating-like motion. It took a lot of spinning to get it to work. It wasn't until a few moments in when I felt amazed at how much this technique was working for me. It got even better. After a while of spinning, the dream started to fade a lot more quickly. It came to the point where I couldn't see anything. I started to panic and yelled out something like, "Keep me in the dream!" or something along those lines. I also spun quicker. It worked, surprisingly. I might have not lasted long after all that turning but it's definitely worth practicing with.

Night of January 24, 2015. Saturday.



I am not sure where I am but I hear at least three girls talking. I am aware of at least two balloons floating about on their own; one red, the other possibly a lighter blue. They are apart from each other, one slightly lower than the other by about one balloon height.

I get the impression that a fairly complex design (such as a funfair scene - including one with a picture of a balloon on the balloon) had been “carved into” or “engraved” on each balloon. There may be some sort of stencil that can be used to do this. Of course, cutting into a hovering helium balloon is not really possible and even if the balloon had slits in the form of an implied drawing, it could not be blown up. (Of course, if the “drawing” was complete where a cut represented each line it would just fall to pieces.)

I puzzle over this, not knowing if it is “real” or not; vaguely confused, but unquestioning.

First dream

Sanctuary world from Diablo series merged with reality. My home was at the middle of hell, near the river of fire. With my older sister we were hunting demons for gold and unique items, to have money for survival in the new world. Somehow we were passing the river of fire by using a wooden boat.

Second dream

I was watching my younger sister playing minecraft. She was falling off the mountains, but she landed safely. Then she was digging a shelter.

Third dream

With six another dwarves we were banned from mountainhomes. They gave us airplane to fly away. I was a pilot. With a bit difficulty I controlled the airplane. When we were low on fuel I decided to land. We landed on a valley, in the middle of nowhere. Mountainhomes were to the south-west, goblin dark fortress to the north-east and elven forests to the west. There was a mountain nearby, where we could find safety. We heard a scream and a stomp. The forest titan was coming! We decided to climb up the mountain and dig a shelter there.

Fourth dream - nightmare

It was friday the thirteenth. I was in my home. It was changed to an old, wooden hut. There were blood stains on the wall. I was moving slowly through the darkness. From the hallways I headed for the bathroom. When I entered the bathroom, I heard Jason Voorhes coming. I moved through the mirror to the mirror world. The house was even more horrifying there. I went out of bathroom, only to get ambushed by Jason. I dropped to the ground.

Detailed recall still a bit down but dreaming up again, thankfully! Lots of scenes

02:07 bedtime (aaaaa!!!! LATE!)

early:
+ scene ending with (looking for babies?) around a swimming pool, some kid lunges at me he has cat heads instead of hands at the end of his arms

+ mercilessly heckled while trying to give a professional talk, the twins pin me against the wall

I'm standing in a large open lab room at work. I'm giving a talk about my extensive personal experience, this is a talk I've given before IWL. I'm describing the very surprising aspect of the system that turns out to be the most complex, because it involves an undocumented legacy system. My audience are people to the left, but a guy to the right across the room starts heckling me, questioning my authority to speak on this. I do a quick calculation and mention "This is my career, I've been doing this (calculate…) 24 years" (almost right, 25 actually). The heckling does not stop. There is conflict with a pair of (blonde?) young men/twins. They pin me against a wall at one point.

later:
09:30

+ I quit because the stock was going to reverse split again, some people had been fired

+ (f) vending machine

+ new room, but view is from parent's house, beautiful colorful view, blinds & drapes can close completely for excellent darkness for dreaming

I'm standing in a room with dark walls, looking out the window. Outside is it bright daylight. The window has both blinds and drapes on it. Excellent, I think I can close these for a completely dark room (which will be great for dreaming?)

+ fascinated by the 4-way folding, retracting porcelain toilet, while peeing into it, multiple toilets in the room

I need to pee, I go into the bathroom, it's in a house, I start using one close to the door but think I'll be seen so I move to one farther back away from the door. It's just a tall rectangular thing with no toilet bowl, I bump a place on the top of the tank and the toilet bowl emerges, "unfolding" from within in 4 equal quarters that merge together into a single toilet bowl. There is a lotus-flower-like center piece in the middle of the bowl (which is the pee target?). While I'm peeing the bowl starts to unfold and retract again, so I bump the lever and the bowl re-emerges fully.

+ searching for suitcase at airport, led on wild goose chase by baggage handler back to where I began

I'm in a small group of people, I have two suitcases (and luggage tags?) my sweatshirt is on the ground(?), I give my suitcases in but need them again, I start looking for them, I stand on some platform that shoots up high suddenly (luggage loading platform?), I find a baggage guy and give him the (tag number?), he leads me through rooms and the path gets progressively more narrow until I can no longer make forwards progress. I see through a crack in the wall the same group I started with, I've been lead in a circle back to where I began!

+ killed by crowd/bad girl in a school cafeteria, she wants to leave town but her b/f says no way

I'm in a school cafeteria, across the room by the windows a smallish boy (an enemy) is walking with a baseball bat. I'm pretty sure I can take him. I can use a chair as a shied held in front of me, and if I close the distance to him quickly I can be on him before he has a chance to make a proper swing at me. I'm now by the window, and the group is approaching, I think if they impale me (on a spike?) they'll kill me, they do it and I die, the bad girl to my right killed me. I tell her "you're a murderer" she says "yeah, I am." She gets up and walks towards the entrance and says "I need to get out of town," her (also bad) boyfriend says "no way, I was with you" (he's concerned that if she runs he'll be caught because it's known he spent time with her).

+ refrigerator door/shelf stuck, fix the stuck hinge, they took my drink, "I really lose my temper when people drink my Kemper!" armful of bottles, girl with long red hair says she's heard everything

I'm looking into a refrigerator. The door is stuck, doesn't open well, I move it back and forth a few times. I notice that there are a series of clear plastic hinges running down the left side of the shelves, and I see one of them is stuck out of position. I move it back to position and the door/shelve now moves freely.

I'm looking for my bottles of drink, I can't find them. I'm upset at first but figure ah well a lot of people live here. Then I have a lot of soda-like bottles in my arms and I'm struggling to hold them all.

A girl with long red hair appears, looks at me, and says something like "I've heard everything." I'm a bit concerned by this.

+ in a show, half-man actor appears out of ground and scoots around the ground with a taped-on nose "costume", I think it's degrading.

On a black-walled black-floored stage, a half-man (head and torso but no hips/legs) emerges from a hole in the stage floor and on a small scoot-cart, he pulls himself around with his arms. I notice there is a small fake nose taped on top of his real nose. I think he's an experienced actor and playing this stupid role in this bad show is probably degrading for him.

+ tucking gun into front pants while riding in little go-cart, friend says must be bold, enemy group walking by

I'm sitting in a small go-cart rolling with a friend, I'm trying to tuck a pistol into the front of my pants. My friend says you have to be bold and act fiercely, a group of our enemies is approaching and passing by me on the left.

Not really a whole lot of dreaming. My back hurt slightly and there were multiple disturbances while I was trying to sleep. Let's hope the competition will provoke another lucid dream!

Non-Lucid
Questioning
Lucid

I got out of bed and fumbled around in the dark for a while before finding a torch and taking a clock off of the wall because it was annoying me. I then went back to bed before waking up for real.

Like I said, not a huge deal of content which kinda sucks. I'll probably get a better sleep tonight and try WBTB again.
- Have a third lucid dream.
- Have a conversation with a DC.
- Fly.
- Find my Dream Guide.

I was on the IOSDP part of the forum talking to Windy, Katsuno, Higat and Lmrhone about mutual dreaming. We all decided to plan a date to share dream and I was excitedly thinking about how it would go and what we would do. Suddenly I appeared through a portal that appeared in front of the computer."Wait a minute!? What the heck!? How'd I get into a place like this so quickly?" I asked my self. Everyone who I was talking to in the forum was there but they were a bit far from me jumping all over the place. I couldn't even distinguish their faces, height or anything like that. But Windy looked somewhat like her avatar from the distance."

"Ohh! This must be a dream!" I said to myself. Windy and the others yelled that they were going to race and see who was the fastest. I started running but windy zoomed really fast past me and the others too. I stopped running because i couldn't get myself to run any faster.

I than woke up on a bed in my house and noticed there were even more beds around and lots of talking. I thought my younger brother brought his friends over. I got up and asked my brother if he could tell his friends to quiet down. Before leaving the room i looked back and saw a guy pull away the blanket from under him. My earrings were on his bed but I didn't feel like getting it so I kept walking. In the hallway I saw my brother wrestling with another guy. " Let go of him!" I said pushing him away. He told me to mind my own business so i kept trying to get him away from my brother.

The way the wrestling part looked like made me realize it was a dream. It felt like the dream character's leg was distorted."Its not like that. Leave him alone" said my younger brother. I went upstairs after that and walked into my living room.There was a guy there and he told me to sit on a chair there because someone was going to visit me in the dream. I sat on the chair waiting and than the guy started fixing the chair. He said it was a special fixing and that i deserved it or something like that. I waited than someone appeared through the door and the dream changed.

I was now on my parent's bed. There was a guy i don't recognize on the right side of the bed and a lady with orange curly hair holding a baby. My mom was there cleaning or moving stuff around. I looked at my phone thinking about how i wanted to go on the internet. But when i turned it on a light green screen appeared with purple words on it. There was a timer on it. It said "start!" Than the timer started going down."Aww man!!I really wanted to go on the internet!" I said dissapointed. My mom told me to leave the internet alone and than the bguy said something but i forgot what. I turned away shyly wonderong why i had to be on the bed with a stranger.The lady with the baby than started saying how my mom was going to take care of her now and how she use to take care of my mom when she was a baby."You use to take care of my mom?!" I asked surprised. She said yes and my mom told me it was true. After that the lady started fixing the baby girl's clothing. Than i woke up.

I found myself in the living room holding a basketball. I was trying to see how high I could jump with it. I then look outside the backdoor window and could see how shiny outside look like. I then enter father room and notice a few forks and spoons on the bed. I pick them up and lay down in till I had another FA. This time I found myself on the rooftop of a building. I ask why am I having so many FA's during my non lucid dreams. Some other voice from no where respond back saying they are also losing consciousness in and out. That's when I no longer could see anything but black. I ask how can you know but not I? The voice responded saying they are another aspect of me. Soon after I wake up. Lucidity Time: 8 seconds.

I dreamed that Tanya and I were in this store. There were these bins--like if you were going to get ice cream for cones. But instead they were filled with these different protein powders. You could choose a flavor and the person behind the counter would take it and either blend it into a protein shake or form it into a bar and microwave it. Tanya chose a flavor called "Coconut Berry" and got hers in bar form. I hadn't decided which one I would get.

-Something to do with a kid who tore apart a brick wall and had to spend the entire summer rebuilding it. He did so really haphazardly (the bricks were not in there usual overlapping pattern.) Parts of the wall were continually falling over and he had run out of cement.

-Something do with a man who was abducted by aliens and managed to escape their ship by jumping into the fuel line and then being ejected out of the engine. (Don't know how that was survivable) He then got cancer because the fuel was radioactive and spent his last days in a hospital room that reminded him of his childhood bedroom.

-Aliens started attacking earth.

-The kid who rebuilt the wall and the man who had been abducted were related somehow. The kid also got abducted by the aliens and taken to their home planet where they had constructed a replica of his home and family in a tree-house. He wanted to stay with them, but the replica was meant to be a distraction from his quest to stop the aliens.

Jan 22, 12:30 nap
Non-Lucid
I dreamed a big fluffy Australian Shepard with a breathing problem came to my family. Then, someone was insulting how women dressed, so I started complimenting the women.
Then, I wake up.

Color: Grey

I was near a overpass over a two-way street. I wanted to cross. Or did I already cross? I was waiting for a jeep.

I took a jeep somewhere. Now I want to go back. I went back via a jeep. I asked the jeep to stop under the overpass but the driver didn't stop until a few meters later, saying that it's not allowed there. Then he said something about crossing the street. There's a pedestrian lane where he stopped, but I thought of crossing via the overpass.

I walked back to the overpass. I saw a siopao store.
