The Path of Iapetos

[COLOR="royalblue"]Non-Aware (Dream)[/COLOR] - [COLOR="blue"]Partially Aware (Lucid Dream)[/COLOR] - [COLOR="navy"]Fully Aware and Vivid (Astral Projection(OOBE)[/COLOR]


This will be my first journal entry. Ironically enough I got my most vivid lucid ever, my own personal belief is in the way and I am questioning if this might not have been dream at all, but actually something bigger like an ... astral projection.

After writing a reply in a thread here on dreamviews I got back to bed and listened to Robert Monroe's - Gateway Experience Wave I - Discovery 1. It was a good attempt and I got to the Focus 3 (Full Relaxation Stage).

Then I put my headphones of and fell asleep.

00:13 - 02:48

[COLOR="royalblue"]I were in a bar with two friends. My friends tried to tell the other in the bar that I had the power of flight but of course no one believed them. They asked me to demonstrate so I took pace and jumped up in the air but I was only able to keep flying if I did a dive in the air. Almost like in the Dolphin Olympics game. Then I tried to maintain the control of the flying with no success.

Then I woke up. I looked at my hands I was awake (NOT) and I started write down what I had dreamt. When I was finished I tried to get back to sleep. I felt strong vibrations and wondered what the hell that was going on. I started to think about witches for some reason and I thought to myself "No brain don't think about scary things now when I am about to lucid dream... Ah well I guess there is nothing I can do about it". Then I see really see images appear in front of my eyes.
I remember seeing a skull in a circle and some other black and white shapes, I observed with excitement. Then I start to see completely physical real, more real than any dream or hallucination I've ever had, Pokemons!
I saw charmander and some green fella I can't remember the name of and there was some strange foggy blue background around them, I was amazed of how real they were, really amazed because I have never witnessed anything that was that vivid in my four years of practice![/COLOR] [COLOR="navy"]Then I notice that I am holding a gameboy advance in my hands and in my physical life I have thrown that away years ago, so this just can't be real or the physical. But I never told myself that I was dreaming, because this didn't feel like my lucid dreams usually feel, this felt REAL! I felt like I was standing in a separate physical reality, it felt like in the physical it was only a weird environment, but I was aware of all my memories and all my actions. I looked out through my window and see weird vehicles and people although the street looked kind of like it does in physical reality. I thought to myself "Ok if this is a dream I will be able to control it like I usually do, by my expectations." I thought of something weird and sexy just to test if the sex drive was controllable in this experience. I imagined Jessica Alba and Britney Spears waiting for me naked when I opened my door. To my disappointment nothing appeared except my usual living room, although with one change there was one extra room and a closed door leading to it. I went into my sleeping mom just to see how she would look like and what would happen.
She looked the same except one thing, she had weird warts all over her face. I got a little chocked and said "Ehum good night mum.". Then I went into the extra room and saw a girl sleeping there and for some reason got a little attracted, but I remembered that that is usually a bad thing in lucid dreams, so whatever this experience I now had was, I should resist it. She was laying on her side with her back against where I was standing, so when I came in she turned over and well she didn't looked fully human. It's hard to describe it was not alien or animal like it was just a different looking human without looking human. She still looked good though, especially for being another race.
I thought about Monroe's book where he got helped by people in the astral, so I asked her "Where can I find people from the physical world?" and she said with a pity face "They don't dare to come here".
Surprised of that answer I thought about the chapter in Monroe's book where he mentioned that he took over another persons body in the astral, almost like a possession. So I was afraid that I might have done the same thing, so I asked her "Do you know who I am? Who am I?" and she said with a smile "Of course, you are ....." I want my name to be a secret for a while.. but she said the right name. Relieved but surprised I leaved the room and went to my stairs. I saw about twenty rings with different symbols on them, some of them that I actually remember. Amazed over my physical memory I thought about the Crop-Circles documentary that I saw some month ago where they talked about advanced symbols that seemed impossible for a man to draw especially on a big crop-circle. But I tried to look for more complicated symbols but I found none. I went to my kitchen and saw my dad, stressful as always so I didn't stay for long. I decided to go out of my house, when I opened the front door a man greeted me and walked inside, "probably a friend of my father" I thought.
I looked up into the night sky and saw a bunch of white circles, almost like small moons, spreading all over the heaven forming a globe around the earth. I noticed that I could see a black silhouette from different angles in each globe and as I moved I realized that the silhouette was me! It was incredible because the silhouettes was synchronized with my every move no matter what movement I did. I waved with my arms, jumped around and it still maintained the synchronization. I thought about Monroe's book again and wondered in what Locale I was in. I asked to myself "What would happen if I fly and accelerated through space and what will I see?" I tried to fly straight up, but only managed to levitate for a bit...
I thought of asking someone and I saw two kids, I asked them "Do you know how to fly?" they said that they only knew how to start levitating but not continue flying, so I was in the same flying level as a kid. Although I asked the grown ups but they didn't knew either and they seemed busy to get to work. I wondered where I was, stupid enough I forgot to ask. I then felt a black space fading into me and then I was laying in bed and I did a ton of reality checks to make sure I truly was awake. [/COLOR]
