Oneirin's Dreamworld

1. Figure On The Stairs (LD)
I’m aware as my body relaxes and imagery begins to form. I begin to see a staircase coming into vision and begin moving my dream body into the scene slowly. I see a figure at the top of the stairs come into view. It is difficult to determine the gender, but the figure is wearing what appears to be a black trench coat. There is a green hue pervading the scene. I make my way up the staircase slowly, feeling that the scene is a bit creepy, but drop any sense of fear, reflecting on the fact that it’s just a dream. I make my way quickly to the figure, imagining it zooming toward me and I skirt to the right. I get the thought to create a comical image and as I turn, the head of the figure turns into a goofy looking worm type character. I turn back around and feel as though I’m returning to my body.
*I’m aware as I’m laying in bed. I’m not sure if I’m awake or still in REM. I don’t want to move so I simply relax my body

2. Getting Cocoa (LD)
I’m aware that a dream has begun and I’m in the void. I’m begin encouraging imagery to begin, yet nothing happens. I go to move my dream body, and discover I can move about. I imagine a cabinet handle that I can grab and quickly find a set to my right. I feel that drinking cocoa will stabilize the dream! I reach to an upper cabinet and begin to imagine that a mug will be inside. I reach inside and find a mug with my hand, and grab the handle. I move farther to the right and begin to drink from it. Visuals begin to appear slightly and I grab a carafe of coffee with my other hand. I take a sip and it tastes just like coffee! I continue to walk across the room with both items and decide to smash the glass coffee carafe. I throw it against the ground and hear a dim shattering, and it gives an interesting impression that it’s coming from ‘within my mind’ rather than the dream scene. I head toward the far wall and phase through a window section. I begin to slowly drift into an area below which is essentially a large square room. There are white sofas positioned around the perimeter of the room. I begin to feel the dream fading a bit, so I drop down and begin rubbing the ground. I begin to wake up.

I look back at the group as my awareness begins to stir. This seems…dreamlike.
“I’m dreaming”. I take a few steps as my awareness raises more, and I’m lucid. I quickly phase through the blinds and window and pop out the other side, floating outside the second story window in the back of the main house in Meadow. It’s night time and I feel a sense of complete freedom.
This is why I lucid dream.
I hear a short clip of a peaceful, yet mysterious melody as I have this thought. I take in the scenery in the dim of night. Where should I explore? I look left and consider exploring a bit further into the unexplored fields area. I decide against it as I worry that it may cause the dream to fade currently. I turn around and begin to raise upward, gaining a view of the roof. I think back to a lucid many years ago in which I had a similar view. I decide not to fly over the house, and decide against heading into the neighbors yard as well. Suddenly, I enter a void state and hold my awareness. I do this for a short moment and suddenly appear back in the second story in my room in Meadow, facing the window. Visuals are still a bit poor, so I continue rubbing the walls as I head into the hallway. I end up in the void once again. I quickly visualize two palm trees, yet shift quickly to visualizing Nocturnia instead. I hold the visualization for a short while and suddenly appear on the second story next to a railing overlooking a lobby. The central area appears to be the lobby of an office building. It slightly resembles the shape of the main house in Meadow. The room is essentially square shaped with a vaulted ceiling as well as a central area that descends via a wide staircase to an area below. The staircase is bordered by a small stone wall on either side. I hear my boss chatting in the room below and to the back. She’s talking to another one of my co-workers. My boss is talking about getting someone in for a date or an interview. I do a slow fall from the balcony.
I decide this is a perfect time to cast invisibility. I snap my fingers on my right hand to cast it. I then do a shroud mudra to conceal myself from ‘dream character sense’, testing it. Next I cross my arms in a X in front of me, casting invincibility. I begin to descend the staircase. The dream character walks by me, and instead of picking up on the fact that I’m there, simply walks right by me. I continue to hear people chatting about business matters. I begin to turn to the left and notice an area that extend to the left as well as straight forward. There are many glass walls situated throughout the area, bending in wave-like patterns, leading in either direction. I get the sense that the area ahead is where the ‘leader’ of the building resides. There’s a stack of blue books in the area where both passageways meet. I look at the title and notice that it’s “The Davinci Code”. I continue farther into the hallways ahead, next to the wavy wall of glass. As I curve father to the right, the glass walls persist and fork once again to the left as well as the right. I see blue sofas in the area beyond and to the right behind the glass. I decide to do some full transformation. I go for dragon form, but decide against it a shift into bird form, raising into the air. The dream begins to fade and I begin to rub the walls next to me. I then decide to try to stabilize by drinking something. I’ll get some hot cocoa. I imagine hot cooca being on the floor in front of me and quickly feel a mug! I begin to sip and taste a sugary drink, yet closer to a marshmallow flavor than chocolate. I begin to imagine a chocolate bar, yet as I begin to reach, I feel that I’m beginning to wake up.

I'm in a field and something begins to feel...dreamlike.
"This is a dream"...my awareness raises and I'm lucid. I see a large beautiful tree in the distance in the field and fly toward it. It's glowing with a slightly purple hue in the night. I raise up and begin imagining my dragon. I look down and see a red figure, a wild creature I recognize as the dragon. It makes a high pitched sound, a cross between a roar and a purr as it looks up at me. I wonder for a second if it may be hostile, and I cross my arms, causing invincibility. My worry about its hostility dissipates quickly. It begins to run across the field and I follow. It looks up again, doing it high pitched roar once more, followed by another period of running. I let it be, and head farther down the field toward a house in the distance. I notice two entry points: one to the right which appears to have many people celebrating inside and another directly in front of me, which has small door propped open. I head to the ajar door in front of me, light spilling out into the night, into what appears to be a vacant section of the home. I enter and decide to go invisible. I stick a finger up rather than snapping, yet it seems to work as a male dream character sitting in a seat simply looks right through me. I find it funny that this technique worked. I wind to the left and farther into the house. I notice two DCs up ahead and enter the room invisible. I enter the back room which is quite small and square, with wooden walls. Only one DC is inside, I turn around heading back from where I came and decide I don't need to be invisible. I raise up in the small adjoining room, toward the vaulted ceiling, lowering my invisibility. I head into another room and the two male DCs begin to notice me. It's a kitchen type area with an island counter in the middle. I see some small Halloween pumpkins on a low shelf on the far side of the room. I decide to start exploring and open cabinets as the DCs tag along. I open up on large cabinet to the right which is essentially a spice cabinet. I'm not interested. I turn around and open up some upper cabinets on the other side of the room. I find some large buns, appearing like trolly buns, in a box and remove two, beginning to eat one. It's really good! I then find some Chips Ahoy cookies as well Rice Crispies and I open the box of the latter. I begin talking to the DCs.
"What is it like to be a dream character here?" - meaning in the dream.
Boys: "Nothing special...we just do our own thing."
I begin to leave the room.
"What should I do next guys?"
I wake up.

1. Into The Water (LD)
My awareness begins to raise and I realize that a dream seems to be forming. I notice a faucet appearing in front of me and become lucid. A mirror soon appears behind it. I phase into the mirror, then step right back out. I begin to explore the neighboring area behind me and see that it’s essentially a long room, extending about ten meters to the left and twenty to the right. There’s a desk with some materials on the left side and a lounge are on the right. The room appears to be on the second or third level of a large building. I ignore this area and float outside through the window into the night. I descend onto a lower level walkway that’s situated on the edge of a body of water. Across the water, several small structures are situated, windows glowing orange in the dim light. I decide to fly across, yet as I start the dream drags me down into the water. I try to play around with the control by telling myself I can’t fly, curious as to the effects. The dream continues to keep me in the water. I swim a bit farther, then wake up.

2. Blowing Fire (LD)
I begin to re-enter the room with a bottle of rubbing alcohol and I suddenly realize I’m in a dream. I say “I’m in a lucid dream”. I enter the room, hold up a flame and spit the rubbing alcohol into the flame, showing the students in the room. There is a wispy white visual of flame. I head toward nearby cabinets and begin to rub to engage tactile sense. I say “this is a dream”. I leave this area and head to my bedroom in Meadow, running. I lose lucidity.

1. Chocolate Chips (LD)
I’m driving down the street in Meadow and suddenly realize I’m dreaming I jump out the window and begin flying upward a bit. I shout “Clarity now!” to increase dream vividness. I then begin humming the song “Sapient Dream” by Slushii. I fly a bit farther in instantly teleport to Syrano. I’m in the bedroom of the main house looking at my dreamcatcher. I head into the kitchen area and begin to shout “clarity now!” and feel my surroundings as the dream is a bit hazy. I make my way to the kitchen area and see if I can turn on a light to increase the lighting, it seems to work very slightly, but not as much as I’d hoped. I consider getting some chocolate to eat and go into the fridge. I don’t find any chocolate in the usual pull-out drawer, so I simply look in the main compartment and find a big bag of chocolate chips. I grab a big handful, pour a bunch in my mouth, and begin chewing – it tastes great! I feel that my mouth is super full and wonder if I’m picking up on anything from my waking body. I head to the main hallway and the dream feels a bit unstable. I continue to chew to see if that’ll stabilize further. I wake up.

2. Mass Telekinesis Fun (LD)
I’m at the counter in Syrano looking at my gym bag. This feels…dreamlike…I turn around and I’m lucid. I shout “clarity” as I feel that I have something over my eyes and the dream feels dim. I make my way to the lanai, heading through the glass and begin feeling the walls and nearby ledge to stabilize – it feels extremely realistic. The dream goes to void for a moment and I decide to visualize some palm trees. I instantly appear in a vivd parking lot with two palm trees in front of me. There are several cars and SUVs parked in the spaces in front of me. There are many large buildings behind them, comprising what appears to be a condo and apartment building complex.I begin considering what I want to do and fly upward transforming into a bird. I fly around the area, carving to the left a bit. I land and decide to practice some telekinesis. At first it doesn’t seem like the large building I’m attempting to raise goes up at all, but then I notice it budge. I remind myself it’s all my mind. I stick out my hand and move it up greatly. I then stick out my arm at various large buildings, flicking them many meters into the air with ease. I go down the row of buildings of various sizes, tossing them into the air and laughing. I head farther down the street and think of other dream control. I begin imagining conjuring a fireball between my hands at my side and casting a fireball. I try this a couple of times along with fire blast, yet only get faint red visuals at the door of a distant house. I head around a curve to the left and clamp my hands to freeze time. It feels as though it worked on the dream scene, but there are no DCs to verify. I wake up.

I'm downstairs Syrano in the dark. I scan the room and see dad in the far left. It just doesn’t make sense – I’m lucid. I consider what to do and think of practicing some control I float up a few feet, then transform into a bird. I notice myself shrinking and I slowly lower to the ground. I lose lucidity.

1. Sliding Into Syrano II
I'm aware as I lay in bed, realizing I'm dreaming and that I may be able to enter the scene. I relax and begin encouraging my dream body to slide as Daniel Love's advice from a talk comes to my mind. I continue to slide and begin to mentally encourage my dream body to stand up and begin walking into the scene. I'm in the bedroom in the Syrano main house and it's a very accurate recreation of my room in waking life. I approach the nearby table and study the contents, one item of which is a small travel mug like in waking life. I rub the table a bit to stabilize. I leave the room and enter the main room, which once again is recreated very accurately. I look ahead and want the dream to be more vivid, so I shout "Claritiy Now!" The dream becomes slightly more vivid, but as I walk forward I get the sensation that I'm waking up.

*False Awakening
2. Zen Garden in Orchid (LD)
I'm laying in bed, thinking that I just woke up. I begin to look around critically. This doesn't make sense...this isn't my room... I'm lucid. I get out of bed in the dark room. and walk of the small platform. I sink into what appears to be dense black goo. I sink further but eventually will myself to float up and ascend above. I see some lamp on a small ledge in the distance. I use telekinesis to move one of the small lamps and it floats to the wall to the right. Another lamp remains behind it - an afterimage of sorts. I turn around and float toward the wall which has a window. I think back to some of Sivason's advice on summoning. I imagine a few items I'd like to find. I then imagine the scene I'd like to find, encouraging the scene to have an orange hue. Suddenly a burst of orange light emanates from the window. I phase through the window and enter a beautiful scene in twilight which appears to be a zen garden. Large white rocks are sitting in the center of a small courtyard with dirt underneath. A one story white building, somewhat resembling a zen monastery wraps around the zen garden (1). I look for cocoa for a moment, but don't find any. I look to my right and see a massive structure which appears to be living quarters of sorts - I recognize the area from a past dream. I wonder if the area on the first floor ahead is the room of storms. I float forward, imagining there will be a shop in that area as well and want to explore in the first floor area ahead, but decide to curve to the right to explore the area to the right which feels like a cross between a cave and a parking structure. I enter the area and begin to reflect on the quality of my awareness, increasing my focus. I curve right and begin exploring the cave area further, looking for a dream character to ask about the area. I continue to curve around in a circle which progress inward toward the center. Once I make my way fully around, I see that there's a bit of an opening into a room and I get the sense that there are several dream characters managing something in the area beyond. As I enter, I feel that I'm waking up.

*False Awakening
3. Nocturnia (LD)
I'm laying in bed and think about recording my previous lucids. I see a co-worker and she asks me do do something. This...doesn't make sense... Nose plug - I'm lucid. I turn to face the corner of the room and think about casting a fireball. I hold my hands to the side and get a sense that there's energy being generated between my hands, that fire is churning. I extend my hand anticipating the fireball. I see my hand extend and wisps of faint wisps of smoke against the far wall. I approach the window and once again will that a scene with an orange glow lay beyond. As I go to phase through widow, I encounter a mesh screen of sorts that bends and prevents me me from phasing thorough it. I eventually phase thorough an see a beautiful, otherworldly city beginning to form from a slightly blurred visual. It becomes very clear and I begin descend into the scene, cast under the night sky. There are several massive structures appearing as cathedrals of sorts, each with a an emblem containing a crescent moon and several small stars in the center. I get the mental impression the place is named Nocturnia and I want the area to become persistent. I feel a sense of awe and wonder. I head toward the largest structure which is straight ahead. I consider which floor to enter into and decide on the first floor. Once I enter I have the option to go left, yet continue into the main area straight ahead - a circular room with a massive vaulted ceiling and a round sitting area in the center in which a counsel seems to be gathered. I make my way inside to introduce myself and take in the faces, many of which appears to be middle aged. They are men and there's one boy among them. I introduce myself, yet they don't seem interested. I seem one of the men to my left has a sweater with a circular logo in the center with several colorful legos within - I find it strange. They seem to be a bit annoyed. I float outward, then feel that I'm bound by invisible shackles on ankles. I unable to move any farther and get pulled back slightly. I can't escape the area. I use strength to pry the left one off, then stand up and imagine cutting through the right one with an invisible blade. It doesn't work on the first attempt, but on the second I'm freed. I float to the side room and two DCs follow me. One DC is holding two guns and holds a gun to my head, then another approaches carrying another gun which I grab. I begin laughing at the DC holding the gun to me and look at him calmly.
"I'm in my dream body... you can't do anything" I say while I continue to laugh. I wake up.


Notes:
(1) I believe this area is Orchid, but need to explore it a bit more.

1. Dark Woods Entry (LD)
My awareness rises rapidly and I’m lucid, floating next to the pool of the main house in Meadow. I feel a sense of freedom and say I’m dreaming” as I begin gliding in an arc around the pool, not in a hurry to do anything in particular. I feel appreciation for getting lucid and say “thank you” in Bisaya, respectfully, to the dream, with a bit of humor. As I approach the far end of the pool and rise up a bit higher, I start thinking about where I want to explore next. I weight out a few options: the main house, the Dark Woods, or the fields I haven’t been to. I decide on the Dark Woods and float over the fence. I decide to stabilize and begin rubbing the sleeve of my jacket. I feel the sensations of cotton as I rub it. The area isn’t very dark currently, and the trees don’t have any leaves. I fly farther and notice a fairly normal two story house structure. I notice that it looks slightly different than the entrance to the wizard’s home. I also notice a community behind this area. I fly a bit closer, then wake up.

2. Dual Wielding Trees (LD)
I look back from the screen, reflecting on how the candle images appear dreamlike. I notice dream-glow as I look across the table at my co-worker. My awareness raises rapidly and I become lucid saying “I’m in a lucid dream”. I turn back toward the screen and phase into it. I enter the dream scene, yet it feels a bit creepy – almost like a haunted mansion type setting. I move backward, phasing out of the screen, and return toward the table area. I quickly leave the area, flying forward in the dark of the night. There’s a wall to my left that appears to be made of dark brick. To my right there’s a row of tall trees. I begin to think about practicing some dream control and go for dragon transformation. My form changes a bit, but it doesn’t feel accurate, so I switch to crow form. As I shrink, drop to the floor and near full transformation, I quickly switch to cat form and begin running forward. I reverting to humanoid form, thinking about invisibility, yet realize there’s no way to test it. I turn right and head into an area with trees, thinking about basic summoning some cocoa. I look on the ground behind a dirt mound, then a short brick wall structure as I make my way forward, yet don’t find cocoa behind either. I look toward the far end of the field and notice a dark structure, yet decide not to head toward it; it looks a bit creepy. I decide to use some super strength, and rip to trees out of the ground and start swinging them like swords. I then approach back toward the trail I came from, dropping the trees and begin smashing through the row of trees with my fist. I get back on the trail, yet I feel as though the dream is fading. I slip into a FA in which I’m voice recording the lucid.

I’m laying down in a dream and trying to WILD. I relax and find myself in a room and realize a dream is forming. My awareness begins to raise and I walk over to a wall, sticking half of my body inside – I’m lucid. I exit the wall and begin thinking about what I want to do. The dream is still a bit dim, so I want to focus on making in more clear. I begin shouting, “Clarity!”. I make my way down the hallway, phase through a wall and enter another area. It’s still a bit dim. I walk around a bit more, then I shout for clarity once again. The dream fades.

1. Café (LD)
I’m outdoors in a quiet city area. This place feels…dreamlike. I suddenly become lucid. I begin shouting:
“This is a dream” to reinforce it within my mind. I walk forward a bit and notice that people are sitting outside at small square metallic tables outside what appears to be a café. I begin considering practicing some dream control. I begin to head up to one younger man at a table. I snap my finger and go invisible. I then wave my hand directly under his field of view as he’s looking down. He look right through my hand and remains oblivious that I’m there. I then float up and transform into dragon form. I feel and hear my wings beating against the air, however the transformation doesn’t feel very strong. I land, shrink down, and go into cat form. I feel my body go into quadrupedal from, and begin to climb up toward the top of a table. I look at a dream character’s laptop screen and notice a cat on the top left, finding it amusing. I shout “This is a dream” a couple more times, having fun with the process. I continue toward the back of the café area and the area opens up to a larger area. I quickly decide to start searching for genie lamp behind some small walls as the dream begins to feel a bit unstable. I transition into a non-lucid.

2. Harbor in Syrano (LD)
I continue to walk forward in the center of the Syrano main house, and something feels strange. I get the strange sense that I’m actually asleep. I notice dream glow and become lucid. I say “I’m lucid in this place”. I float toward the lanai area and head outside. The room appears to be made of a light colored concrete and appears to be elevated. I begin to think about dream control. I go into crow form, shrinking down massively, feeling my head shrink and compress toward the center, my wings extend and my body pitches forward as my legs retract into crow legs. I walk across the table in crow form, feeling my weight shifting with the crow’s gait. I take fly and begin to glide, feeling an awesome sense of chill freedom. I then think of competition and decide to mess around with other dream control. I head toward the concrete wall toward the edge of the room. There’s a view of a massive body of water many stories below to the right of the wall. I phase right through the wall an emerge on the other side, many meters above the body of water below, gliding. I shout, “Clairty!” seeking to maintain the dream. I consider what to do next, yet the dream fades.

3. Genie Lamps (LD)
I find myself laying in bed. I wish I had another lucid…what if I just relax back into a dream…maybe imagine myself drifting off the bed…I find my dream body moving and I stand up. I’m lucid as a scene of a room beyond begins to form as I gaze through the doorway. I begin to walk through the doorway and the scene solidifies. I continue to walk through a house with white walls and a a tight hallway leading to various rooms. I explore for a bit, then consider where to head, and make my way right into a yard area. As I head out, I see that the yard, with dense grass, extends far to the right. I shout “Clairty!” and float to the back of the yard area. I approach the back section which has many sections which appear to be mini gardening areas with small fences and an area that extends to the left. I remember my goals of finding a genie lamp, rubbing it, and interacting with the genie. I don’t find the lamp around the first fence, however I search a bit more and notice one dark brown one with an interesting shape. I then notice another light gold one with an elegant shape…then another! I wonder which one I should choose. I make my way around, pick up a lamp and rub it…nothing happens. I release the lamp then head farther down, thinking about my goal of finding a dragon companion. I notice to my left in my periphery what appears to be a small green dragon shape, yet head toward the large golden dragon statue in the back of the yard area. I ask it:
“ Can you grant me a dragon companion?” I then ask, “Help me to become lucid more often”.
I leave the area and make my way back to the fence. I reflect on how long the dream feels and how this is what it must feel like for Hufik most night. I scale the fence, then think of flight. I imagine being propelled by jetpacks for fun and rush backward over the yard once again. I then decide to control flight by imagining wings beating. I float back toward the fence and fly downward into the next area which appears to have large buildings. I enter a large structure to the right and go into dragon form. The structure is massive, yet empty and has dense concrete walls. I feel and hear my wings beating as I ascend higher and higher. The ceiling on raises more and more with each beat of my wings. Soon I’m in the interior of a hollow concrete structure roughly sixty stories tall. I decide to ignore phasing through the ceiling and simply phase through the wall.
--The scene goes black, yet I simply wait, knowing a scene will form. I hold my awareness in the void for about a minute…--
I then find myself in a small apartment style room and Bran is standing in front of me.
“I’m gonna get some cocoa then go explore some lucids man!”
I approach the counter where I saw a hot water heater, yet go for the black thermos instead. I notice green tea powder next to it.
“Is this any good?”
He says it is, but I decide not to have it and just grab the cocoa, drinking a bit. I head toward the window.
“Is Uburu Migu in that direction?” I ask pointing diagonally.
Bran: “Yes”
“What’s this place called?”
Bran: “Arowai”
“That’s a strange name…”
I head through the window and fly far down to the left. I enter a large area which appears like somewhat of a mall area that you’d find in a massive airport. There are many people gathered in the central area, massive vaulted ceiling overhead. I head into a room in the right and see many dream characters sitting down, gathered together. I study how real all of their faces look, amazed by it, then leave the area. The dream feels a bit unstable, so I begin rubbing the ground vigorously. The dream stabilized. I fly forward a bit more then head to the right and into another building. As I enter, I decide to practice more dream control. Telekinesis! I see a small ball – somewhat of a children’s toy – with many colorful dots on it. I extend my hand and begin to move it around. It feels like I’m a jedi I think with amusement. I do this for a bit, then use TK to begin move a metallic lever. I head to the right and see Bran going into a fridge. There are a wide variety of drinks in the fridge, all lined up in different colored bottles. I use TK to squirt some liquid from one bottle into the air in an arc, directly into my mouth. It tases great! I then do another…then another! I turn to Bran
“Check out this jedi stuff!” I say laughing
I wake up.

I read my 'dream journal' and it says: 'I had a chain of 10 lucids.' No I didn't...that doesn't make sense Nose plug...I'm' lucid. Suddenly I find myself in darkness. I see the faint outline of a door to my right. I open it by turning the knob and move through. I figure a dream scene will materialize soon, but I set to stabilizing the dream. I continue to shout: "Clarity!" and begin rubbing the walls next to me. I continue to rub vigorously for some time and sense a very dim bit of light coming from a curved window to my left. It seems as though I'm on a walkway on a second floor. Maybe this is Meadow... I begin rubbing the carpeting beneath me, moving my dream body a great deal, waiting for a scene to form. I feel myself waking up.

Meditation By The City Rails (LD)
I’m floating in a city area above what to be train tracks. I notice dream glow, and something starts to feel familiar. This place looks…dreamlike…I feel like I’ve been here before….I’m dreaming! I feel a burst of excitement and shout:
“I’m lucid! Whooooo!
as I continue to float about ten feet above the rails, rotating in the air as I take in the sites. The scene is very colorful and appears to be on the outskirts of a city (1). There are a few small buildings and what appears to be construction equipment around. The path heads down to the left where slightly larger buildings are situated. I float down this area and a clip from an earlier non-lucid pops into my head (2). I start to imagine some chill music, similar to lofi. I turn around and head back where I came and quickly find myself in a large outdoor courtyard area of sorts after I make a quick right. I look ahead at the large building in the distance and appreciate how solid the dream feels, and how crisp the visuals are. I tell the dream that it’s going to last for an hour. I consider what I want to do an meditation comes to mind. I sit in the corner of the courtyard, do a gyaan mudra and quickly float up about twenty feet holding concentration. I then switch to cosmic mudra. After a moment, I break the meditation as I want to make sure the dream stays solid. I focus my awareness taking in the scene in the distance once again, which remains quite vivid. I shout for clarity as I come out of meditation, and the scene becomes a bit clearer as my eyes fully open. I turn my attention from the building to the courtyard area to my right. There is set of three long elevated platforms sitting about thirty feet in the air running down the length of the right side of the courtyard. The surfaces appear to be made of dark wood. I float to the first, then run across all the surfaces, focusing on the sensation on my dream feet. I turn from the platforms and fly to the main building, heading inside. I soon find a large rectangular wooden sign which seems to be depicting a name for the town as well as what appears to be a rough illustration of city limits in the background. I begin to read it, and it seems like it’s saying something like: Diaphos. It then changes to something similar to Tetharis. I continue to try to determine an accurate name. I quickly wake up.

1. Midnight Cars (LD)
I roll over in bed and it feels…dreamlike. This could always be a dream. Nose plug. I’m lucid darkness and stand up in what seems to be a bedroom. I move my dream body around although I can’t quite see around the room. I shout “Clarity now!”. I begin to see some bits of light and walk in that direction, soon noticing a square window starting to appear with dim bluish light pouring though. I phase through and float outside. The scene outside is very vivid and I see a few mint sports cars parked in a wide driveway situated between three large houses which seem to be four stories tall, and in excellent condition with a dark sheen to the outside. The scene reminds me of a previous lucid scene. I consider taking one of the sports cars for a drive, but decide against it. I decide to start levitating upward in meditation position, and remain there for a moment taking in a view of the surroundings. I begin to think of dream goals, then decide to explore a bit. I fly up into the tall structure in front of me and phase though a window. I find myself in an upscale office area of sorts. I think of the chocolate shop dream goal and begin to search in various rooms within the office area, expecting a chocolate shop, yet the rooms each have sparse décor. I continue exploring for a bit, entering many different rooms within the structure, yet the dream fades.

2. Dancing Shiva Statue (LD)
I’m talking to an older lady on the second story of a building. She’s explaining that she’s teaching lucid dreaming. I ask her when she had her first, and she said tonight. That makes no sense.
I’m lucid and quickly fly through the wall to the left. I take in the scene under the bright sun as I curve to the left. I see a building to my right extending into what appears to be the clouds; I’m unable to see the ground. On the roof of the structure is a large, dark brown Hindu statue of the dancing Shiva. I find the statue extremely interesting and I feel a strong sense of wonder. I fly past the roof top and curve farther to the right. I see a roof top area beyond a very tall glass wall. I phase through and see many dark skinned people, possibly of Indian descent, lounging on beach chairs. I fly past the first few, which are all different ages, then study the face of the last which is quite vivid – she’s an older lady. I leave this area and phase into the building via the wall in front of me. The area is quite dark and I make my way to the back of what appears to be a kitchen area. I begin to hear co-workers chatting about a project that needs to be done. I snap to go invisible and head to the back. I see a few co-workers behind me, but they don’t seem to notice that I’m there. They continue talking about setting up the kitchen for a gathering that’s approaching
I then hear my boss:
“We can have E do it.” Crap
I instinctively raise my arm and free time. All the DCs freeze in place. I begin grabbing a bunch of glasses and plates and throwing them toward the table, each landing neatly. This is nonsense…why am I wasting time doing this? I can do whatever I want. I leave and fly through the door at the end of the room. And begin to explore another office building type area. I make my way from room to room I make my way farther down, then phase through a wall in the back in the dim light. I find myself in a large warehouse type area with gray walls which is several stories tall. I begin to float downward. I imagine myself going into dragon from and feel myself extending and my wings beating against the air. I then catch my reflection and notice myself in humanoid form. I shouldn’t have looked at the reflection. I explore the room for a bit, yet he dream soon fades

3. Shrine Top in Meadow (LD)
I’m in the basement in meadow, in the pantry area. Something just…don’t make sense…why am I here…this looks off. Nose plug…breathe…hmmm. Nose plug…breathe….no way, is this really a dream…am I pinching right? I alter my pinching…breathe. . It really is a dream! I head toward the stairs and face the wall. Everything is still very dark. I begin to press my arm into the wall and feel a bit of resistance before my arm sinks in followed by a portion of my body. I leave the wall and head upstairs, very slowly, taking in the experience. I hear voices at the kitchen table. I snap to go invisible as I don’t feel like interacting with DCs. Mom looks in my direction, yet right through me, and I head in the direction and make a left without the group seeing me. I realize I don’t have pants. Man…I know it doesn’t matter…but I feel like I should get pants before flying around…this feels awkward. I can feel the cool air against my legs. I make my way into the side room and turn to view what’s on the countertop. I see some of cookies that mom makes on the counter, amidst a lot of clutter. Everything looks so real...I wouldn’t eat this in waking life, but I’ll try it. I take a sugar cookie and bite. It taste good and the taste is accurate! I see a chocolate chip finger cookie next to it and begin to head out the door, continuing to chew. I hear my parent in the background talking about my dad’s uncle. I go through the open door, chocolate chip cookie in hand, and close the door quietly to not stir the DCs. The edge of a large garbage back gets caught in the door and makes some noise. My dad calls to have me take out the trash…nope.
I fly upward continuing to chew on the sugar cookie. My mouth feels really full. This is what it always starts to feel like when I eat in dreams. I wonder what’s going on with my mouth in my real body. Maybe I can imagine spitting it out. I start to feel less contents in my mouth. I fly farther upward and take in the view of the roof of the neighboring structure, which I’ve never seen. There appears to be a pool on the roof, with a strong shimmer to the water. The roof appears to be beyond a thin wall of glass. This dream feel stable, and like it’ll continue for a while. May be I can explore that area of meadow as I look into the far distance. I fly a bit farther then wake up (1).

Notes:
It’s interesting that I woke up at my exact usual time, although I set my alarm clock ahead a few minutes.

1. Conjuring the Tsunami (LD)
I continue to fly away from the large group, and head into an area of a forest, in a brightly lit autumn scene. I feel like I was close to getting in that last dream. Maybe I…this is a dream! I’m lucid as I continue to fly through the bright, beautiful autumn colors displayed by the massive trees on either side of the forest path I’m heading down. The dirt pathway is quite detailed and I feel a sense of freedom as I curve my way left into a clearing. I begin to consider dream control I see a large tree approach with a thick branch extending far to the left, high in the air. I fly right through it. I head toward w walkway between two large brick buildings and see two kids walking below, taking a moment to glance back at me. I fly past them and slightly down an asphalt pathway toward a beach area. There are quite a few people on the stretch of sand and I see small waves churning in the distance. I land on the beach and element manipulation comes to mind. Water…the last of the four elements I need to work with. I extend my arms and start a churning, conjuring motion. I focus my attention on making the waves increase in size. The next wave becomes far larger than the ones before. The next, larger yet again, followed by the next. I then set my mind to creating a tsunami. A massive wave, probably 40 stories tall begins to gradually form, white foam beginning to form at the top. All the water begins to get sucked from the lower section of sand as the top of the wave begins to crash down to the shore. I should have moved. The waves come crashing down hard and I feel my dream body smash into the sand. My vision goes black and I feel that I’m spinning. The lack of vision may cause the dream to fade…I end up in a non-lucid.

2. Partial Phase (LD)
I’m in a dark room and see H in the corner. Something doesn’t feel right….Nose plug. I’m able to breathe very slightly. My nose feels a bit strange. I adjust my fingers – nose plug. Wait this is probably… a dream! I look at my hands. It looks like I have five fingers but they’re very thick and the dream glow is there! I’m lucid! I begin to phase through the wall behind me, but as I’m partially inside I see H and decide to head over to her. I give her a hug. The dream begins to fade and I slip into a non-lucid.

I turn over and see a wooden table and wonder if I need to get up for work. I notice dream glow and become lucid. I can probably just stand up and enter the dream… I stand up and I’m in a bedroom which resembles one in Syrano. The dream is a bit dim, so I shout “Clarity Now!” and begin rubbing the carpet. I think of a way to exit and consider the wall, yet decide on the curtains since I can see outside first by pulling them back. I pull the curtains back and notice the thick glass behind them as well as the daylight and yard beyond. I phase through the thick glass and find myself in the backyard of the main house in Meadow. I head down the concrete walkway a bit a think of some dream control. I notice my left eye is shut a bit and figure it’s my sleeping body. I shout for clarity, drop down and rub the floor, stand back up, and the vision issue is resolved. I then try element manipulation. As I look up, I see a massive crescent moon in the sky slightly to my left. I begin to think of conjuring tornados but decide to try fireballs a different way. I begin conjuring at my side and go to hurl one, yet just see wisps of smoke approach the fence. I turn to my right and see a vivid stop sign descending from above (1). I see a large gnarled tree to my right and I begin climbing. I actually feel my lats straining hard as I pull my dream body up. I take in the sights around, then float back down to the steps behind the main house. A group of young kids is sitting on the concrete steps leading into the house, eating from a large big bucket of chicken wings. They offer me some, and I have a bite. They’re extra gooey and taste really good! There’s a lot of thick sauce on them. I head away from this area and back toward the fence, beginning to think about transformation. I look at my shadow and see my dream body elongating vertically into what appears to be an insectoid shape. I don’t quite like the idea and begin to think of other ideas as I head through the gate and feel my body extending from front to back into a massive shape. I look in my shadow and notice the shape of a massive scorpion. I curve left toward the driveway and imagine a giant stinger coming down in front of me and crushing into the driveway surface – only faint wisps appear. I continue to head down the driveway, reverting to my humanoid dream body. Once on the driveway, I think of levitation meditation. I cross my legs and float up in meditation. I reflect on how my control in the dreamworld is increasing and I’m happy about it. I land, walk a bit farther down and see a yellow car coming down the street from the left. I immediately think: mass telekinesis! I focus my attention and remind myself that everything is simply…my mind. This is all my mind. I imagine the car moving and guide it with my mind to swerve and lift off the ground a bit and it hits into the house. Yes! I float down toward the car and into the Village section of Meadow. The houses are gray and have a very ‘boxy’ shape to them. There’s a bit of light glowing from the windows of many of the homes. I see a few DCs pass by and a couple enter the house. I tell one that I’m going to head in with them. I make my way into the house which is slightly gray, heading toward the back. I climb some stairs and snap my fingers to go invisible, avoiding a DC’s gaze. She seems to hear something a moment later and begins looking for me. I phase partially into the wall to avoid her, then realize I’m wasting my time hear. I phase out and leave the house. The dream begins to fade a bit, so I begin to rub the street vigorously. I say:
“I’m dreaming…I’m dreaming… I’m dreaming”
I reappear in a second story room and head toward the next room. I think of element manipulation for a moment, but ignore it for the time being. I phase through a window and toward an alleyway situated in an elevated area against a building. I seem quite a few pipes and head farther down this area, and brick walls comprising the outsides of all the nearby buildings I use telekinesis on a small metalic object, then try to use super speed to speed to head farther down into the industrial area to the right. It doesn’t quite work, as I try to alter my visual perception. I rise upward and begin to fly far to the left and get a memory of Hufik’s dream journal. The dream begins to fade a bit, but I hold awareness and begin to fly back a bit. I reappear in a factory type setting which somewhat resembles the equipment from the previous room. I walk a bit farther and notice a massive square piece of machinery made of solid metal. It’s colored yellow and blue. I set my mind to use mass TK and move it over and into the gap ahead. Music from the autumn competition video begins to play! I continue to fly to the left, but soon wake up.
