    Halloween treats

    Date: 30 Oct

    I woke up before my scheduled wbtb and had heavy insomnia. Used it as an unavoidable wbtb and concentrated on ld thoughts in the midst of all other unnecessary for this time of the night thoughts. I was super tired and my recall is rather bad.

    As I am in bed, waiting for sleep, I get a few strong flash dream scenes that look promisingly engaging but those interrupt. I am very tired at this point to follow any transitions and just want to sleep.

    A brief fragment where I emerge on a balcony fully entering the scene. There is an inviting flat roof nearby and I want to cross over, but it's far away. I lean forward and move in its direction and the distance shortens which enables me to do it. Memory about this happening a lot in nlds (yes). I also notice that I automatically continue walking on all fours, something which I recall also happens during nlds.


    Memory gap.

    A nld in some place that feels like ours. An uninvited guest makes an appearance and I wonder about that. Could it be a dream? It'd better be. I abandon the whole situation and spend some mostly unmemorable time walking around the place, just going from room to room, opening doors, etc. This helps me acquire a bit of clarity of mind and to hold the dream at the same time.

    Bf is also here and after a while of room wandering, I stop and face his DC. I have a brief moment of conscious thought about doing anything with him. We start kissing but then I recall I really wanted to do the pumpkin task. The bathroom is right ahead and I go there picturing a pumpkin, which I see just below a chair or a crate of some sort. Initially it is a normal pumpkin, but then it turns into one made of paper. I rip open the top and peek to see what's inside - a number of halloween chocolate treats in different colors. I feel satisfied with the task, make a mental note and walk back to the other room. (Without trying any). Then I come back to make sure I got the details right, the treats are still there.


    I think the dream must have ended soon after that, it seems I went into much deeper sleep that messed up my recall.

      Nice, Nyx, congratulations on getting the task in just under the wire! The date was supposed to be the 30th of October, not November, right?

      Great zoom teleport, too! Interesting that zoom teleports are apparently a common event in your NLDs, if I read that correctly! Pretty cool!

      Thanks, CL! I was really happy with the completion of this little task.

      Good catch with the date and a nice reminder for some of us to be more mindful!

      Yes, this zoom/distance shortening happens often in my nlds. Hopefully, as my mind is comfortable using this schema, I will be able to do it more during lds too.

      Congrats on the lucidity Nyx! Perhaps you can make the zoom and the walking on all fours dream signs to ramp up lucidity in those "nlds" that may be semi-lucids..? Very cool!

      Thanks, fogelbise! Indeed, I think that as one practices more of these nld things in lds and vice versa, at some point the barrier between the two "worlds" begins to thin out and one might start catching more of these moments turning them into lds.
