    Golden Tales From The Dream World

    Dreams are an inescapable part of my life.
    That fact became more so when my dream recall became surprisingly good just after a week or so of trying to improve it.
    Now it seems that whether I like it or not, I remember almost all of my dreams.
    Because of this, the world of my dreams have become more tangible for me.
    Now they are something I want to explore and try to understand.
    That's why I'm trying to hone my abilities as a lucid dreamer.

    Glossary:

    Knightmare: Typically nightmares are a single entity, like a monster or a criminal, so I refer to them as knightmares, warriors of fear.

    ISD: Inconsistent Spatial Dimensions. In dreams there is a lack of consistency in spatial dimensions, meaning you could walk into a room that's big on the inside and small on the outside.

    Dream me: I refer to the non-lucid me as dream me, since I act much differently than I do in waking life.

    No WL counterpart: This person only exists in the dream, it isn't based off of anyone in waking life.

      So, I've been holding out on posting this for a while.
      Well I've been holding out a bit on posting in general.
      I had a lucid dream on monday, but I never ended up making a full fledged journal for it (at the moment it's just jot notes)
      and the day after I had this dream which took a lot more time to write.
      I guess I should make posts for all my lucid dreams here, but it was just bad timing I guess.
      Maybe I'll post it later I don't know.
      But I digress.
      This is one of the most interesting dreams I've had, well, in a VERY long time.
      It isn't lucid at all yet it has to do with dreams and my inner psyche.
      Some of my long running questions get answered and in it's wake more questions develop.
      I'll have a whole "Side Notes" post about this on it's self since were I to put it in the entry those conjecture brackets would take up most of the page.

      February 19th 2013

      We were trying to break into a fortress with untold riches inside.
      We had tried various attempts to get in but all ended in failure.
      There was a large front door in the fortress, however it only leads into my school.
      I head inside to meet with the team in our clubroom.
      Our team is made up of three other girls and myself.
      I'm really eager to break into this fortress.
      I can't help but feel that there's something important inside, something that I need.
      I ask them to head back out and go try again but they've already given up.
      They'd rather eat lunch or go to class or something.
      I ask them to give it one more try.
      The red head girl in our squad agrees and heads back out.
      I can see through her eyes but can't control her movements.
      When you attempt to break in to the fortress you start on a cement platform.
      Below you is some water, and in front of you a large cliff face.
      At the bottom of the cliff face is a small chained up door.
      Because it resides underneath the cliff it's shadowy and dark.
      To the right of the platform is a path that leads to the doorway back to the school.
      As she sits there and ponders a huge axe starts swinging down toward her.
      Now, wait, that wasn't there before!
      I project the thought into her mind as loud as I can.
      "Jump into the water you fool!"
      She hops off and lands face first into the water.
      Then she's back in the clubroom, she never left.
      Makes sense, we were doing all that telepathically.
      Which means that fortress resided within someones mind.
      But, whose?
      (It was mine).
      Now I'm pissed, whoever's mind it is they're not gonna let us in easily, or at all.
      I join the "give up" bandwagon.
      Everyone goes off to do there own thing, girly stuff I bet.
      I go to the front of the school where I left my backpack and jacket.
      I put them back on and start to head out.
      However, before I leave, I over hear someone.
      "Dammit! In trying to prevent the things that happened in the "Zone" 1 you idiots almost started a "Zone" 2!"
      Hm wonder what she's talking about, a movie or something?
      Whatever.
      As soon as I leave onto the street I can't help but feel as though I'm homeless.
      Well that sucks, I think to myself.
