    First Successful DEILD

    (Wow, I haven't updated my DJ in a while! No, my recall hasn't been failing me; I've just been getting lazy with writing down my dreams. Oops!)

    I successfully DEILDed for the first time this morning!

    It was actually a complete accident. I wasn’t actually intending to DEILD until I started seeing vivid hypnagogic imagery and saw it as a good opportunity. I just focused on the HI and started describing what I saw in my mind - at first, just to myself, but I guess I shifted to narrating to my subconscious at some point; at one point, I addressed my subconscious as “you guys”, only to realize what I’d just said, apologize, and say, “Well, the one or many of you.”

    I soon started to become aware of where I was, but I wasn’t dreaming yet. It was more like vivid wonderland visualization during an active forcing session; I couldn’t physically see a thing, but I was well aware of where I (and everything else) was. The place I was was just this random field that I drive past fairly frequently IWL. After not too long, I crossed the road and realized I could actually see properly and must have entered the dream. In addition to the road, I saw that there was now an additional road branching off from it. I somehow knew that this road must lead to my subconscious. A couple cars did go that way; they must have been driven by dream guides/part of my subconscious.

    I noticed a box on the ground. It was a cardboard box (like a package something would be delivered in) addressed to me. I knew it was from my subconscious. Before opening it, I decided I should stabilize by doing an RC. I counted my fingers but ended up counting only five on each hand (strange, that RC almost never fails me), but I still knew I was dreaming, as I’d consciously made the transition to the dream state. I picked up the box again anyway and saw that it was now addressed to my brother (accidental text RC much?). I knew it was still really for me (as it was in my dream), so I decided to open it anyway.

    Before I even had a chance to open it, everything went black, and I realized I was awake. Disappointed, I opened my eyes and got up. I’m definitely going to try to go back there, though; I have to follow that subconscious road!

    (EDIT: Whoa, ignore the wonderland/forcing thing if you have no idea what I'm talking about. I copied this straight from my tumblr and forgot to remove that part, oops!)

      That's awesome! I've had that kind of thing happen before too, where I'm about to discover something really awesome, unlock a door, or teleport somewhere, but I wake up instead. That can be so incredibly irritating, but with enough practice, I think we can start getting to the good stuff before it's time to wake up.

      Great dream. I love this "package from the subconscious" idea. I don't blame you for wanting to get straight back and find out what's in that thing! I was one of those guys that kept hoping they'd turn the glowing briefcase around in Pulp Fiction and show me what was in that thing.

      So were you going straight from another dream in the field scene or did you conjure the field up from scratch?

      CanisLucidus, the field wasn't from another dream. I just randomly realized I was there during the HI.

      I know you said to ignore this, but I'm intrigued..

      Yeah, I meant to remove that part but forgot about it. This might (hopefully) help explain: Irish's Wonderland Guide • Guides • Tulpa.Info
