I went to bed at 10:15 and had really nice sleep, but before bed I thought about LDing and SDing too much which led to failure of WILD... I'm a bug! I'm some kind of flying bug; I don't exactly know what am I but I think I'm a dragonfly. (similar to Zhuangi's butterfly dream!?) I had my two bug friends beside me. We are running away from a predator. this dream is kinda fuzzy but I remember flying over the grass and landing on a leaf. weird! I'm human but there are still more bugs? My family, neighbor H family and W family are having a trip to somewhere I recognize as a place of pond/ lake. There are so many fireflies that we have to clean them up. I see big ladybugs. after that H family leaves for home and we get ready to go home, too. we are passing thru a plastic bag? tunnel and inside, there are also plastic bag 'blocks' and there is a little hole that has a size about human head, and we have to pass it. I was frustrated.
Where in the (dream)world is Katsuno? I have a nice and smooth WILD at around 6am this morning. I can sense that I am not fully under so I just float up and down on my bed until I am fully under. I get out of bed, rub my hands together (they don't feel like they are fully there yet and feel like numb, tingly bits of limbs. I walk down my stairs and come to my front door so I try to walk through it -ow! hmm, I try it again - OWW! OK, perhaps I'll just do it the old fashioned way - I open the door with the handle and walk out into my street. The road is covered in thick snow. I walk further down the street and rub my hands together again - time for a portal. 'KATSUNO, KATSUNO' I start to chant and wave my arms about in a circular motion. I do this for a while until I release that nothing is happening - not even a spark, damn! So rather than waste more time on this I take off flying into the sky, superman style - I shoot forward real fast trying to get an idea of which direction to go into by trying to sense where Katsuno is. I have no idea, all the directions seem viable - perhaps I'm thinking too linear? After all there cannot really be a real three dimensional directional system as we know it in the real world right? Perhaps I'm thinking too much, for some reason I start to slow down and I take this as my cue to land. I find myself in a busy high street with shops all around me. I touch things as I walk, bits of fabric, the concrete ground - to keep myself lucid and prevent myself from waking. I need to find Katsuno! Where to go now? I think about a piece I was reading the day before about how the law of attraction works in dreams and how (quoted from the cusps's 'Nature of Dream Control' ) : 1. Everything in your dreams requires your attention to exist. 2. The more attention you give to one element, the more detail it creates in relation to what you are focused on. But for the life of me I can't think of what to focus on which would help to get me to Katsuno, I guess if it was something I wanted to manifest and create from my own subconscious then this method would be relevant, but I'm trying to find a real person! I walk into a shop and take a good look around, the shop is small and cramped but it seems to sell a bit of everything. Some (blue?) fabric at one end of the shop, some electronics in the middle. There is somebody, a man, waiting at the till - I go to ask him if he knows where Katsuno is - he just shakes his head to say no (I think, this part is a bit fuzzy) Then I think about trying to contact Kat via the internet, so I look around for a computer - but I cannot see any - and before I can do anything else I hear a sound in real life and it wakes me up. Maybe try a phone call next time? What do you think guys, what methods should I use to get in contact with you? False awakening I then 'wake up' and I tell my wife how I dream t it was snowing outside, but then when I pull back the curtains I find that it is a nice sunny day, not only that but I take a long look at the view - we live in a beautiful area (though it is exaggerated somewhat for the dream) I can see fields upon fields and new houses that look more like semi-transparent Eco friendly self-sufficient huts that people have started to live in. We then go out to walk outside and find ourselves in a massive stadium, it is the Olympic stadium, ready for the 2012 UK Olympics. It is very empty, save for some athletes who are practicing. I nearly get knocked over by two approaching runners , I need to step to one side to avoid the collision. I cannot remember the rest of the dream
