    Fragment of Dreams

    1. Fragment: Is Seasonal Hunting Cruel?

      by , 03-06-2013 at 11:53 AM
      This fragment asked the question: Is seasonal hunting cruel?
      My dream answer: No.

      So I continue my lessons in what is proper as I call them, or another way of looking at it is that my mind is struggling with issues of right and wrong, and checking what is right in my opinion. Not that I am ever going to do seasonal hunting myself, but I don't judge people who do. My mind wanted to verify that. Interesting.
    2. Fragment: Looking for non-catatonic fish or dreams

      by , 03-06-2013 at 10:49 AM
      In this dream fragment I remember looking for non-catatonic fish in the petstore, but during the dream also thinking that fish may stand for dreams (!).

      Note: This was not a lucid dream, but just another example of a dream about dreaming, which I have been having a lot of.

      Also note that Fishkeeping is another hobby of mine, and looking for new fish is a regular occurrence right now (about once a month), since I am in the process of slowly stocking my aquarium. When looking for new fish, one looks for lively ones, and thus non-catotonic kind of makes sense for fish, though it is an odd choice of words.

      However if fish stands for dreams, and the choose off odd word matters, here is an online definition of catatonic from word.com website:

      "1 : of, relating to, being, resembling, or affected by schizophrenia characterized especially by a marked psychomotor disturbance that may involve stupor or mutism, negativism, rigidity, purposeless excitement, and inappropriate or bizarre posturing

      2 : characterized by a marked lack of movement, activity, or expression"

      It makes sense that I would look for dreams that are non-catatonic!
    3. Fragment about dream competition

      by , 03-05-2013 at 08:35 AM
      Frqgment: In my dream a real life acquaintance mine whom I usuelly see about twice a year were in a dream competition of sorts.

      She was trying to learn how to "suck out" the nightmare part out of dreams.

      I was trying to learn how to "suck out" lucidity out of dreams.

      Upon waking I was struck by the odd use of the word "suck out". Did we mean like a succabus?

      Meanwhile, my son was the one who had woken me up (at 2:30am) saying that his leopard and some other plush toy were stuck together and he did not know how it happened. I suggested he bring them to me, and I would look into it. He said he did not know where they were. Realizing that what was bothering was probably a dream fragment, I suggested he go back to sleep, and we would look for them in the morning.
    4. Dreaming - Chicken or Egg Dilemma

      This dream fragment was about dreaming. Upon waking it occurred to be that it was a chicken or egg type dilemma. But that that's all I remember.

    5. Another fragment dream about dreaming

      by , 03-03-2013 at 10:02 AM
      Even though I was careful not to move as I remembered this dream, and I thought I had it, but when I did move, the fragment became even more fragmented.

      This was another dream about dreaming. It started out with a question asked on DV. I don't remember the question but it was asked by someone experienced for the sake of helping teach beginners. It had to do with differentiation of dreams, categorization of them.

      I remember thinking that the distinction was easy for me, and answering the question.

      This was not a lucid dream.

      EDIT: after more sleep around 7am did not remember additional dream or fragment, but remembered a bit more from this one:

      Question: Experienced dreamers, how do you change entries in a dream journal to help prepare for lucid dreaming? (Note: Upon waking this question is weird to me and has no clear and easy answer, but in my dream I thought it was easy.)

      My dream answer: Focus on dream signs. Do not concentrate on what makes this dream unique. (Note: I know there was more to my dream answer, but that's all I remember.)

    6. Culling dreams

      by , 03-01-2013 at 12:45 PM
      I have been struggling with basic dream recall, but I am up to at least remembering a fragment every time. This one made me grin.

      First some background: my other hobby is Fishkeeping, and in Fishkeeping there is a practice called "culling" which is the euthenizing of fish that for example would die any way (putting them out of their misery).

      In this dream, I was culling dreams. I was evaluating and sorting them to figure out which are not worthy of recall, etc. this was definitely not a lucid dream, and I just remember a fragment of it, but it made me smile, and hope that my mind is on its way to re-embark on this lucid dreaming adventure.
