Wow. I mean. Wow. I'm coming from a period where my effort for lucid dreaming is the minimum possible. I had a long sequence of false awakenings. I have a theory about it. I wrote it at the end of the post.

- I'm in front of a mirror and I decide to reality check. The mirror works fantastically, but my eyes appear deformed. Thanks to my long effort to overcome my fear of mirrors I have now a fantastic tool! I realize I'm dreaming, and I enter in the mirror. I'm in my parents' village in Italy. I started to fly and I want to fly to Saturn, that I can see in the sky. I change my mind when I see that the village is full of people (in my last dreams people were almost nowhere to be found and always enemies). I land back and i want to interact with them. I find a colleague of mine, and in the dream he shows a very outspoken personality. I decide to ignore him though. I remember about an old task that consisted in asking the name of the characters. I ask a man what is his name, and he doesn't want to talk at all. I force him to say his name and he eventually say that his name is Nahem, and he goes away. I let him go and I lose my lucidity, and I wake up.

- I reality check: still a dream. I enter in the mirror, I'm in Naples. My parents are there. My mother complains about something useless, I told them that I have to go because I have more important things to do. I fly away, but I lose the lucidity and I wake up.

- I'm in front of another mirror. Reality check: deformed eyes. It's a dream. I jump inside the mirror, I'm in the Dutch city The Hague, in Grotemarkt. I talk to a girl, I ask her her name. She answer "I'm Lesa". That word in Italian means damaged; if an Italian woman says "I'm Lesa" it means something like "my brain is damaged". I made them a joke about it "oh, I see, both as a name and as a fact". She facepalms and smiles for my horrible joke. I ask to the other woman in her table "and you? Are you also Lesa?" And she answers "no". I reply "oh that's strange! You look like you are!" The crowd finds my jokes very funny and laughs or loud. Then I ask another woman "and what's your name?" "Samantha" "oh that's a beautiful name!". I then lose lucidity and wake up in my bed.

- but when I reality check I discover that it's another dream. This time i invite my girlfriend and my cat to join me in the mirror. I cuddle my pet a little bit before he decided to come... But then I don't find him anymore. we are in some very boring place in the Netherlands. i invite my girlfriend to fly with me. I explain her how to do it. She manages to do it and she is enthusiast! It works! It works! I then lose lucidity and I wake up for real.



I check the tube, 4:30. I think that the long series of false awakenings was due to the fact that my phone was empty and it was under recharge, but turned off. I was worried about not being able to wake up on time.
