Oneirin's Dreamworld

I’m in M Street, between the kitchen and downstairs hallway and I’m instantly lucid. My hand comes out in front of me as usual right at the onset of the dream. I say “I’m Lucid” and a feeling of happiness comes over me as I realize that I ended the three day streak of non-lucidity. It is very dark in the downstairs area of M Street and I decide to make my way to the front. I glide to the front and through the front doors without paying attention to the solidity. I reflect on dream goals and immediately think of asking the dream what my dharma is. I’m standing in the front of the house and take in the view of the bush in front of me as well as the several story tall tree with dark leaves. The scene is in the dead of night. I ask the dream, “what is my dharma”? …No response. I ask yet again, but there is no response. I decide to adjust to an English phraseology and ask “what is my life purpose” to the dream, yet no response is given yet again. I ignore this goal for the time being and begin to reflect on another. I consider heading to the dream sanctuary and begin thinking of the best method, which I believe would be via the purple crystal from the last lucid dream. I imagine it on the edge of the thornbush to my left, but nothing appears. I ignore this and turn to my right to view the glacé doors in the front of M Street. I want to get out of the darkness to stabilize the dream and avoid collapse and decide to head forward. To increase vividness and focus I shout, “focus!” with intensity while ramping up my awareness. The dream becomes slightly more vivid as I look through the glass doors at the orange hue of the light in the main entrance beyond. I make my way to the glass doors and begin making my ways through. I stop early on however thinking back to the initiL stages of dream yoga and decide to pass my hand through the solid glass door. I push my hand through slowly and watch how the fingers, then the palm slowly make their way through this translucent ‘membrane’. I smile with amusement and intrigue. I then think back to the competition and decide to phase my whole body through the solid object (glass door). I slowly make my way through and take in the dim orange glow of the room behind along with the sitting area in the far back. There are a couple of small lounge-style sofas in front of me and several more in the back of the room along with a small plant between the two areas. I consider to try to transform the plant for practice with dream yoga stages, but decide against it for the time being. I feel one of my eyelids shut and consider re-opening it but feel it may interfere with my waking body. I reflect on how vision through one dream eye seems more vivid for now and just forgot about it. I turn to my left and see a long hallway extending roughly 30 feet. It is quite sparse, however a machine which appears to be an espresso maker sits at the far end upon a small table. It appears that a small hallway opens to the left at the end of the hallway. I begin to head down the hallway, but quickly return to my waking body.

Non-lucid
I Enter a large bathroom which looks like a steam room of sorts. It closely resembles the bathroom in Serrano. one or two figures are in the shower-and I approach cautiously with Hanna. The Dream phases to forest area. There are Massive treant characters with top portions of their heads appearing like flat lava pools. They’re in pain. Their heads are essentially super Massive trunks- probably 15 feet in diameter. They open their mouths and there’s and intense redness and grimace of pain. Remnants of one is shown melted into ground leaving lava pool behind. Another approaches showing red gaping teeth and slowly melts into ground leaving lava pool. A DC jumps in and is slowly morphed by the heat of the lava into what almost appears like an avocado with a pit at the center which slowly changes in color, finally ending in brown.The Dream fades.

I’m in what appears to be Serrano and Brandon- then Hanna are interfering with WBTB and lucidity I feel. I tell them not to interfere. I go to the bathroom - looks like Ms old house- toilet - vivid and needs to be flushed! I do so then turn to the sink.
I end up in the M street kitchen and I’m talking to Brandon. I think back to a mushroom I just picked out of the yard and ate. I wonder if it’s poisoned! I ask b.

The Dream Timer; Tribal Elixirs; Purple Portal to the Dream Sanctuary
The Dream Timer
I begin to see light through the back of a car window appear. I’m aware as images start to form in the slight bluish light. There appears to be some kind of machine to the left which looks like a box of some sort – possibly a microwave. The shapes then becomes two cars. I get excited as I recognize that a dream is beginning to form and calm myself slightly so as not to make the dream fade. I begin to gently move my dream body ensuring that my physical body won’t be affected. I begin to make my way out of the back window and realize that I’m good to go! I’m struck by the sheer vividness of the dream. I exit the back window of the car and begin to slide down a small metal bronze platform on the back of the car. I consider dream goals and think back to the summer competition. I don’t want to puruse the dream sanctuary due to risk of having the dream collapse; I want it to last a while. I then remember that eating/drinking something was one of my personal tasks. I anticipate a chocolate bar being in my left hand as I raise it, yet nothing appears when I do. I slide a bit further and there is a glass with what appears to be a small amount of red wine and I have some, yet there isn’t any taste. I float farther down the dream scene, down an area of what appears to be a wide alleyway with rooftops converging two stories overhead to shelter the area from the sun. It appears to be a bazaar of sorts with muted brown colors and some reds and greens that pop out. There are a few female dream characters on the fringes as I glide down the alleyway. I shout “Aware!” as I want to raise the vividness and clarity. I think back to a podcast and continue to move my eyes around the dream scene so as not to fixate in one area and collapse the dream. The alleyway converges into a large square forum area of sorts with additional colors and the presence of some foliage. I begin to hear a ticking from behind me and interpret this to be a timer of sorts counting down to the end of the dream. I attempt to counter this my counting backward from ten, progressively more slowly, in order to dilate dream time. I make my way down from ten, yet the dream goes black.
I begin spinning within the dark scene, along with streaks of gray, motivated to hold awareness. I begin seeing a bluish scene form, but decide I don’t want a blue dream scene, and attempt to change it to green.
Tribal Elixirs
I emerge into a dream scene roughly 20-30 feet in the air. It’s an exilerating feeling an upbeat song begins to play within my mind, reflecting my excitement. I consider the dream goal of consuming a magic elixir. I look below and view a very vivid body of water resembling the pool in M street. Small red-tinged plants are growing out of the water which resemble plants in Serrano. I turn in the air to my right and notice a very tall narrow wooden pole, almost like a tree trunk, ascending into the air. The surface is covered within intricate white and yellow flowers, somewhat resembling orchinds. I begin to ascend the ‘totem’ in search of an elixir. At the top I find a very small thimble of sorts, but decide this won’t suffice as the elixir. I turn to my left and take in the view of a simple village consisting of huts, some with roofs, some without. There don’t appear to be any DCs at this time. To the far right appears to be a area strewn with several mats for sitting with a somewhat elaborate color schemes and adornments. I decide this must be the dwelling place of the tribal leader and the perfect place to look for the magical elixir. I approach the center of the area and a tray has several glasses and a goblet – two of the glass have liquid in them: one with wine and one with appears to be a champagne of sorts. I drink the one with the lighter liquid and it has a very bland taste – it’s not the elixir. I continue to fly in the heart of the village toward structure with simply a wide wooden base yet no roof. I female DC character is laying in this area and appears to be very life-like. I look at the DC briefly, taking in the detail, but quickly move on in order to move farther into the village. I make my way in a bit farther, but the dream begins to fade.
I am once again in a dark void with swirls of gray. I insistent on maintaining my awareness as I swirl.
Purple Portal to the Dream Sanctuary
A scene rapidly appears, yet appears to be very cartoon-like. There are orcish/penguin looking figures adorned with spiked armor in an area which appears to resemble the foyer to the castle in Mario 64 mixed with the design theme of Orgrimmar. I begin to focus intently in order for the dream to become more vivid and life-like, and have a degree of success; the scene becomes slightly more realistic. The area maintains it’s orcish theme, and I float to the upper level of a walkway to the side of the main area. I turn and notice that behind a wall with large opening lays the heart of the city – a central area to the orcish stronghold which resembles the central gathering area of Orgrimmar. I fly into this area and notice two large structures. I decide not to stay in this dream scene and begin to consider finding a portal to go through. I find my way to a nearby wall and start to phase through. My vision begins to go black as my head enter the wall and I realize I may lose the dream. I re-emerge from the wall hoping that the dream will sustain – it does. I move forward a bit and notice a small half-sphere of what appears to be purple crystal, with fragmented portions containing dream scenes inside. I reflect that this would be the perfect way to find the dream sanctuary. I begin to phase into the center of one of the fragments and the scene expands into a small clearing with an earthen tunnel at the end. Inside the tunnel sits what appears to be a hut in the forest. I enter the tunnel and suddenly find myself within the hut structure. It is an earth-hewn cavernous room which extends down in a sort of tunnel-like shape. The area to the left begins to rise up to a sort of half-story area. I want a meditation area, so I imagine one around the alcove approaching on the left. I also want it to be more adorned and ‘homey’. I enter the alcove and notice a large stone tablet protruding form the well with roughly seven circular stone button in an arch. Each circular stone button is correlated with a symbol, two of which I remember as a moon and a crystal. I decide I want the sanctuary to morph into the ‘moon’ phase. I press the button and sense that the dream reacts. At this point the dream fades and I wake up.

*After review of the dream journal, entry to the 'Moon Phase' of the dream sanctuary is something I'm eagerly working toward. This will be essentially a hub where I will work on Dream Yoga stages. I hope to have a mediation area, a portal area which shows locations I may venture to (using the crystal phasing technique used in the 3rd portion of this trilogy so as not to collapse the dream), as well as a precipice to ask questions directly to the dream (subconscious mind).

I remember another dream fragment in which I'm speaking to my mom about going into enforcement. We then find ourselves in a car and there's a screen in front of the center console depicting an officer. I have my work radio attached to me.

I find myself in an apartment on what I believe to be the second floor. I suddenly realize I’m in a dream without any prompt. I reach a low level of lucidity and take in the dim room, which appears to have a bed in the middle and a DC standing toward the edge of the room. I make my way to the DC to start a conversation. I lose lucidity and slip into a normal dream.

I find myself continuing to rise rapidly in flight next to a massive structure in broad daylight. My awareness raises and I suddenly realize that I’m dreaming. My right hand comes out in front of me during this realization, but doesn’t cause lucidity in and of itself. I take in the beautiful vivid surroundings. It’s mid day and I see the edges of the forest far in the distance, wrapping around in all directions. I ‘m in a large clearing of roughly several hundred acres, and there are several structures. Behind me sits a massive, narrow building with four sides of pure glass/mirror. The top is sharp and slanted. I consider going in this direction, but figure that it may not be very interesting and look slightly more to the right. The clearing extends very far in this directions, with quite a bit of grassland. I turn farther to the right, and there is a large shrine with what appears to be shining black scales covering the top portion. It’s a mix of what looks like dragon scale or carapace of sorts. I think of dream goals and consider finding my dream sanctuary. I then then of time dilation – an unofficial goal – and get interested in doing this as I really want to extend the dream. I think to myself that I’d like it to last a solid half-hour. The dream is very stable and vivid and my awareness is stables as well – I feel it’s a definite possibility. I look farther to the right and the terrain slopes down and leads to a body of water. Slightly more to the right is a long structure with a very large rectangular pool of water toward the nearest side. In the back right sits a one to two story structure butting up against the pool portion, with squared off sides. The structure is a bronze/brownish color with slight luminosity. I consider going in this area, but get back to my dream goals. First, I count backward from ten to try to dilate time. I make sure to go a bit slower this time than last. Next, I try to imagine ahead of time that my wrist will have a watch when I pull it up. I raise my arm and I have a button-down shirt sleeve on. The imagination pulled through as there is a slight bulge by the wrist. I pull it back to reveal what looks like my watch in real life, however, it has an extra dial resembling those I saw in the mall the day prior in waking life. The hands are a bit blurry but I quickly find the second hand and attempt to gradually slow it. It continues ticking on at what appears to be one tick per second. The dream becomes quite blurry and unstable. I find myself awake in real life.

I'm in a car, thinking about how I really wanted to have had an LD at night. Something doesn't seem quite right. I look at my hand instinctively. The hand didn't quite trigger lucidity - it was simply due to awareness raising - but I suddenly realize - this is a dream! I look around and everything looks extremely vivid and realistic. think to myself that this looks more real than waking life. I look at my mom and she's wearing a light green outfit, but her eyes look different and she's staring blankly forward. I make my way to the back seat and my dad is sitting there with a typical horizontal-striped blue polo. There is a child who I don't get a good look at sitting in the back seat. I tap my dad on my way flying out the back window and say "see you later". I fly out of the car and there is a beautiful sunrise. I see a metropolis in the distance and it looks almost like there's a desert stretching toward it. I consider my dream goals and the dream sanctuary comes to mind. I then think of an informal dream goal that I get excited for: time dilation! I imagine a watch on my arm as I draw it up in front of me. There's only faint outlines and I don't quite see hands. I ignore this method and simply count down from down, going increasingly slowly. I then have the thought that I want the dream to last at least 30 minutes in perception. I then begin to fly toward the city, and soon notice a large sand colored pyramidal structure in the back left. I think that the sanctuary may be in that direction. I may my way through several alleys looking at DCs and takin in their realistic faces. I make my way into a building and down a staircase - it appears to be somewhat like a mini factory area. I decide to fly through the basement window. I take in a lumberyard scene with a green and red machines and don't quite like this scene as much so I backtrack, wondering if the dream will materialize the same scene. It remains very similar although I need to squeeze past three small DCs with disgruntled munchkin faces coming down the stairs. I end up in a playground area and consider my dream goals. I look up and see four massive swirling, vivid tornados far in the distance and think the sanctuary may be in that direction. I feel weight on my back and notice I have a bookbag on which I take off as I feel this may slow me down. I figure it may have useful dream items I could use later on. I decide to hold off moving forward for a second and try to throw a few fireballs, doing a pullback motion with my arm. I try twice, however the visuals are not very clear and appear stencil-like. I consider in the dream messaging Sivason for advice when I wake up. I move forward quickly scaling a net on the playground and then burst into flight. The dream fades and I wake.

I find myself looking at a one story purple structure and instantly know I’m dreaming. I turn to my right and notice another one story structure with the front wall missing as well as a pointed roof. There’s a DC sleeping inside of it. I want to increase my awareness as well as dream vividness so I emphatically say “focus” while ramping up my awareness with intensity. I look at the ground and engage awareness – the dream becomes a bit more vivid. I decide to sit for a moment and meditate, keeping my gaze on the floor. I get up after a few seconds and head toward the second structure. I decide to ignore it and leave the sleeping DC alone. I fly down the area between the two structures. There is a bit of light in the scene, resembling the period jut before dawn. I consider finding other DCs but I feel this would dbe a distraction and resolve to continue with dream goals. I fly upward and ahead toward a three to four story darker structure and reflect on how much better my control of flying has gotten over the years. I think back to flying being one of the phases of dream yoga. I fly toward a top tory window, but don’t go through. I see an area to my left that opens into a field. There appears to be a fence approaching, somewhat resembling an apartment complex I used to live in. I continue to fly over the fence and the dream begins darker and I am concerned about losing lucidity. I consider turning around. As the vision fades, I resolve to hold onto awareness, and I’m feeling confident. I reflect on a dream from several days ago where during this phase I imagined swimming through clouds. I start doing swimming motions with my arms, yet with very wide swings and I think back to an LD article discussing these wide swings for awareness. The dream begins to fade. Then there is a massive explosion of white bright light with an incredibly loud noise going along which is more high pithed than low. I wonder what it is with amazement and wonder if it has to do with the clear light mind. The dream then dissolves into a void state, and I maintain awareness for a moment. I find myself awake some time after.

I find myself on a balcony in what appears to be a city and I’m lucid instantly. I take in the view. It’s nighttime in a dim twilight type area. There’s a rail to my right running down the edge of a walkway, with a drop of roughly 10 feet on the other side. I’m a bit excited, but quickly temper the emotion with relative ease. I’m feeling happy about getting lucid The dream is not as stable and vivid as I would like, so I increase my resolve to strengthen stability and vividness. I shout “focus” to myself and raise my awareness, staring at the rails. I remember back to a dream yoga book, and decide to stare at a smaller area with less visuals. I direct my awareness to the ground and ramp up my awareness. The vividness increases as well as my awareness and the walkway comes into view along the with porous surface and rough, rock-hewn texture. There I a green tinge to it. I look up and begin walking down the walkway to my left. I end up in a dene forested area after the walkway descends a bit. The dream loses a bit of vividness I think to dream goals and reflect on finding my dream sanctuary. I begin carving through the forest and soon discover a cave forward and to my right. There’s a waterfall blocking it and all of a sudden I feel like the dream may fade. I make an attempt to increase awareness and it continues. I push through this waterfall area and end up in a cave which extends quite far and is lit well. In the back theres several columns of tikis with an intense blue glow around the eyes, mouths, and general carvings around them as well. I decide to sit and meditate for a moment to increase vividness. After only a few seconds I get up and decide this doesn’t feel quite like the sanctuary, although I incubated torches at one point and possibly tikis. I fly down into the cave and make a right. I enter what appears to be almost a mix of a recording studio and a classroom area. There’s a bird perched recording something into a mic- it has a silly playful feel to it. I ask where I can find my dream sanctuary, and if it’s possible to establish one above. The brid directs me above. I enter to another area to the right which looks very industrial with the option of two metal doors. I feel the left is the correct one but decide to go right as it was more natural movement wise. I second guess before going through and head through the left. I end up in a metropolis of sorts with what appear to be apartment buildings in the night raising roughly 10-15 stories with a slope to the outside. I wonder if this may become a persistent dream realm. I figure my sanctuary may be set up above me. I notice a mountain side and figure a cave may be above it. I reflect on a possible interpretation: that the dream aspect is somewhat more important than the material, thus located ‘above’ the metropolis. I fly above the building and end up in an area which is enclosed by a large net before reaching the mountain side. I eventually cut through and reach the cave entrance. The dream starts to fade and right as I make my way toward a cave high on the mountainside, I wake up.

I find myself on a couch and get the feeling I may be in a dream. I will myself to move over to the edge and begin sliding. I say “I’m lucid” several time and find myself standing up easily. I’m in what appears to be a hotel room at night. There’s a long dreser to the left and a very large bed to the right with ruffled covers which are pulled back slightly and large ruffled pillows as well. I take a few steps, considering finding a DC, but decide not to get distracted and instead focus on dream goals. I consider finding my dream sanctuary. I look up attempting to raise my awareness and say “focus” several times. I think to a Trevor Hall song, but decide to ignore it as it brings up a silly frame of mind with the lyrics. I reflect on my dream sanctuary goal. I look up and notice a large amalgamation of blankets which looks almost like a throne. There’s a conical top that appears almost like a canopy portion. The dream soon fades.

I'm on the couch where I slept. I'm on my belly and I'm wondering if it's real life or a dream, in a half-coherent sort of manner. I continue to slide forward off the pillow and over the back edge of the couch. I figure I'll test if I'll go forward more, and if I do, I must be dreaming. I reach halfway, then two-thirds, and I become lucid. I'm start going diagonally down, then stand up. I find myself in Serrano, next to the cabinet against the wall. I walk over toward the kitchen area and consider some dream goals. I decide to search for my guardian angel. I look in front of me with some expectation, imagining with some visualization what it would look like. Nothing happens. I head toward the fridge and decide to get some chocolate! I find some dark chocolate in the usual spot in the drawer. I once again try to imagine finding my guardian angel to speak to, yet nothing materializes. I figure if I head to the front and possibly outside, the dream will reveal it. I begin heading in that direction, but the dream soon fades.

I'm in a car with family and something feels off. I climb into the back seat, and they're stating emphatically for me to stay put. I glimpse at my hand and catch four...possibly five fingers... but don't really scrutinize as I get the sense something isn't right. I'm dreaming! With the realization I ignore the DCs and step out of the car. I take in the scene - we're situated on a rocky landscape with gray rocks surfacing the area we're on. I see a structure out in the distance on what appears to be a cliffside. The dream soon fades and I wake.

I'm in the central area of serrano and hearing the running of what sounds like a motor (probably a chiller in real life). Out of the corner of my eye I imagine a glass container - almost like a fish tank of sorts - on a table in the corner. When I turn, it's in fact a printer as well as a sewing machine, which resembles my mom's sewing machine in NJ, on the table in the corner. I keep my gaze on this table and scrutinize the two machines. It doesn't make sense that the sewing machine would be in the corner. I feel like a hear my cold plunge, and this should be my cold plunge...right?. This doesn't make sense. I begin to pull my hand in front of me, but without even needing to really observe it, I realize: oh - It's a dream! I become lucid and take in the scenery of this central area of my home in the dream. The dream isn't fully clear and stable, and at this moment I'm truly wanting a clear and stable dream. I really push my awareness hard, tapping into a state as though I was pushing my awareness hard in a session of zazen. I continue to ramp up my awareness with focus, and say "aware". The dream buildings in vividness and stability. I get the feeling that there's somehting messy on my hand. I realize I don't need to wash my hand since it's a dream, but it kind of annoys me (like it would in waking life!) and figure hey, why not wash it off quick. I head to the sink which looks strikingly similar to how it would look in real life. Even the layout of the kitchen is almost identical. I wash my hands and then dry them with the cloth on the drainboard - almost identical to real life. I then think to work on some dream goals! First, I want to ask the dream what my spiritual path is. I ask, yet no answer once again. I then decide to try to head to my dream sanctuary. I spontaneously get the idea to pull out my laptop and go on google chrome and see what happens if I search it. But first, I see the fridge a think about grabbing a piece of dark chocolate while I work on this. I expect to find some in the area where I keep it in waking life, and sure enough, I find the same exact double-sealed plastic bag of ChocZero that I had there a couple days prior. I don't feel like meticulously unzipping the bag, so I try to just rip it open and poor the chips into my hands while loading the computer - no luck. I start typing "dream sanctuary" into the google search, yet the letters keep getting scrambled as I type. I try to produce the words accurately and keep needing to backspace and retype. I eventually come pretty close, and the computer loads the image of what appears to be woods. I turn to my right and notice a dark bunched up figure at the top of the stairs, almost like a bunched up blanket but I can't tell 100%. It sparks a bit of fear- in a nightmarish type of way- but I get intense with my approach to it. I stick out my hand with courage and intensity and do somewhat of a 'force pull' - however it doesn't work. I then do a 'force-crush' instinctively, yet it doesn't seem to have much of an effect. I return to glance at the screen and decide to head outside to try to find this area. I turn to my right and see the same figure and once again try both techniques in a 'force' type of way, yet no effect. I begin to hear voices of roughly two people in the house and they seem to be approaching the room. I want to avoid it, so I head to the front entrance, which opens in both directions just before the main door, and I head outside. The front of the house looks almost like a manor, which a red brick staircase leading downward. I fly down this area and the red brick continues onto the front walkway. I make my way into a wooded area as the sunlight streams through. I take in the beautiful sight of the tress and continue my flight forward. I soon see a tall fence with two guard just on the other side. I fly into the fence and scale up it. I then fly over and take in the view of a large field with a large brick building which appears to be a school behind it. A bunch of students are playing some sort of sport which seems like it may be soccer. I spot a teen picking on a much younger student, and suddenly get the impulse to protect the young student. I punch the older one if the face, then in the body, then proceed to throw him about one hundred hard and into the side of the building. I immediately get the thought/feeling that I shouldn't have done that. Although it's a dream, it's still going to have some kind of karmic trace (thinking back to a podcast I'd heard the day prior). I immediately fly to the DC dropping down from the wall, catch him, and do a sort of 'lay-on-hands' to fully heal him. I then guide him down to the ground. I begin flying away and the dream begins to fade. I then wake up.

I'm in an inside area which resembles the central area of Serrano. My awareness begins to raise on it's own and I begin to realize I'm in a dream and become lucid. I float toward the glass doors in front of me and float outside. There's an area outside with a lot of plants/foliage around and a body of water in the middle which a appears to be a pool with another section adjoined to it. I have the thought of raising awareness and consider asking the dream to ramp up clarity. I decide against this and resolve to simply use my own ability to increase awareness. I take in the scene and float around a bit. I make my way back inside after 30 seconds or so and take in the visuals of the inside area. There's what appears to be a kitchen with a larger island in the middle which is lighter in color. There is a another room connected in an open concept. The dream soon fades.

I'm in the front of the house in M street and get a sense that something is a bit off - that it's not quite waking reality. I begin to jump a few times and eventually lift off and become lucid. I fly toward the front of the house and head outside and take in the snowy scene. I fly up a bit higher and notice three younger males walking to the right, toward the neighbor's house. I turn around toward the house and head to the second story. I see a figure of my mom's face peer through a window. I avoid it and fly to the right of the house. I sense that my brother is inside the room in front of me, yet continue to fly around the corner. I make my way to the side of the house and descend. The ground then carves out to reveal the entire side of the house with the basement section revealed. I dip down into this area, yet ascend once again, raiding to the second story. I see a charicature version of my dream self in this area. I see the figure through the large window against revealing the bedroom which takes up the majority of the side wall. The 'dream me' appears to be sleeping yet with eyes mostly open. He/Me then points to an area behind me, then points again emphatically with eyes going wider. I ask if I should head in that direction and it appears to be affirmed by the figure's gesture. I turn and fly in that direction, assuming the dream goal of my dream sanctuary may be found in that direction. I notice that there is foliage, mostly just bushes which are all very light in color - almost white. I head fly in this direction and the dream begins to lose a bit of its stability. As the dream becomes whiter, it appears almost as though I'm flying through clouds. Figuring that the dream may fade, I imagine that I'm flying through clouds to the sanctuary and make close to swimming movements with my arms. Gradually I come back to waking reality.

I have a dream where I'm draving down a three lane highway and I'm about to crash. I have a false awakening on my couch and I'm super grateful that I'm alive and it was jus a dream. Then I realize I'm dreaming! With the realization I shoot out of my dream body in another body which is glowing with light. I am up about 7 feet in the air and a loud celestial song of sorts plays. I lower back to the floor, standing, and my dream eyes are closed. I feel that if I open them too rapidly, it'll stir me awake in real life. I take a few steps forward, then begin opening them slowly and see the blinds covering the windows. I then feel as though I am waking, and have a false awakening. The dream then transitions to a period of a dream in the same room.

I'm sitting on the couch facing the TV and wall unit and suddenly realize I should actually be sleeping and it doesn't make sense that I'm sitting upright. I look at my hands, notice I have 6 fingers, and realize that I'm dreaming. I try to get up and move but my body is immobile and I can't move. I take in the my surroundings and try again. As I try to relax, the dream fades, and I come back to waking.
