    1. Father Room to Bath Room OST + DILD

      by , 08-11-2014 at 01:50 AM (Inner World حلم Gamma Waves)
      I wake up in Father room got up and went to the bathroom, I tried to turn on the lights but it didn't work, I tried again but it failed again. That's when I saw hand on the wall and it started making me question whether this is a dream or not that's when I made an attempt to look at myself in the mirror however since there was no lights it was hard to see through. I place my fingers on the mirror to test how many fingers I had, they came up to five fingers. I decided I guess I must be seeing things in till this pressure hits me and reminds me that no this is definitely a dream. That's when I realize I was dreaming but before I could move my whole entire dream body I froze and was unable to move. I tried to lift my arm but it was out my own control and started flapping around, that's when my lucidity backfire and logical reasoning decided it's impossible to be in a dream when it feels this real. I lost lucidity and join my Father and brother in the living room.



      Another dream I appear in a coffee shop and was looking n the mirror, I quickly realize that I was a different person and that the body I currently was having was not mine. That's when I prepare to leave the coffee shop to go outside as I make my way to the door this man who was hidden tried to elbow me in the face. However his aim was off and lost his balance once he miss he landed by a near side table. I look at him and realize he's trying to fight me because I took his body, after that I walk out the building running and my two subordinates were already waiting for me. As we run to the woods that wasn't far from where the coffee shop was located we all could sense that man in the coffee shop was coming at us at incredible speeds. He zoom pass me and slid on the muddy ground trying to lose momentum, once he regain balance I stare at him waiting to see what he'll do. He looks at me in anger and walks right pass me , one of my associates told me we should get him. I laugh and said this isn't worth our time and told him because he would never be willing to fight himself. We continue walking in the woods as it started raining but shortly after that I woke up. Lucidity Time 6 seconds.

    2. 8/9 & 8/10/14 WILD Ride & Flight From School - Sensei's Competition Nights 13 &14

      by , 08-10-2014 at 11:54 PM
      Upside: LD 2 nights in a row for final two nights and a memorable WILD, though somewhat short. Downside: not a whole lot of points and the one the next night even shorter.

      8/9/14* something sexual in party setting? / parameters of video recording / rental house white paint maybe painted in here looks nice in day..not bright at night. / guy being dragged behind boat as punishment. Acquaintance calls out for him to be freed. / While experimenting with visualizing and taking control of HH's, I fall into a wild. What I at first only saw as an advanced dreamlet that would likely dematerialize, became more as I interacted with it or already was more. I was apparently standing outside perhaps in front of a restaurant or similar area where people would gather in front of and there's this group of people including this sexy woman in a gorgeous dress. It was skin tight with white and earth tones in it with the different colors in blocks on a solid white base. Most of the earth tone colors were horizonal blocks around the midsection and bottom of the dress and there were two vertical blocks over the thighs that were see through revealing her beautiful thighs. Idecide to take action in what I think is a still a dreamlet. I say something complimentary about her and her dress.<<DC interact>> She takes my hand and urges me towards the town car that she apparently came in. As we both climb in the visuals become more ethereal with only flashes of light here and there as we have sex it feels like we are both in space floating weightless and moving together as one in a wonderful moment of ecstasy! This continues for a while until I wake up. Maybe 3-4 minutes total. Wow!!! 188

      8/10/14* narrator: gruesome scene but also surreal scene. He used a hammer. / keep paperwork? From time we went to hospital to show hardship. False memory. / thank you bro-law E..for picking me up? Giving me a ride? / normal sport not in normal position, not tired at all. Losing my normal position? At half-time go into school see sexy woman and think if dream I would take action (like I was thinking during wbtb visualization), wake / penises on TV, all different, wife sees and giggles, for some reason I worry during dream that wife may be imagining another man during sex. / on phone with MB, us as witness for lawyer for her divorce case / at school for event, auditorium doors open part way by themselves. I peek in and it is dark and ominous. I take off down hall...Should I Fly?!!! this is a dream! Go for Step3 to the TOTY (sleeping beauty who was also was going to be transformed to Scarlett for my personal goal but I didn't get far at all)...Look for exit...doors locked...I bust through like Superman. I fly super fast up toward "fantasyland" as imagined...maybe 25 seconds and I stop, thinking this is far enough. While deciding whether to step out or fall back,to get into fantasyland, I wake. 189 / JD from 90 minutes North of here brings a baby & small girl...just dropping them off can't stay (ex coming?) I carry baby...big! Pantsless so I go to bathroom find swim trunks. More people coming for a party...swim trunks are embarrassing. Day residue or like baby the other night, also big. Use baby for baby new year in parade. Baby teetering...falls but falls well so he's unhurt. I try to break his fall and miss - too late, and pick him up. Cute woman washing dishes and moving butt sexily (visualization residue for girl friday) I say don't do that...implying provocative. Camera. / I slept too long and still try an afternoon nap before end of competition to try to get more points knowing that the last two nights will not add up to a whole lot of points. Was able to get HH's and interact some but eventually just knock out for the nap.
    3. Bold Talk (Plus NLD Series)

      by , 08-10-2014 at 09:25 PM
      I've posted the lucid dream at the bottom of this entry but I'm going to start with some non-lucids. I don't usually post my non-lucids in the Dream Journal, but this was a cool series of four NLDs all from the same night as the lucid. All of the NLDs featured Dreamer as well as some other DV folks. The first dream about the magical fox was probably one of the funniest I've ever had.

      NLD#1: The Magical Fox

      Lots of people on DreamViews are in a big, active study group on advanced dream control. There are 40 or 50 of on this subforum and everyone’s got workbooks that they update regularly. Definite participants include me, Dreamer, Xanous, sivason, NyxCC, and Sensei.

      There’s tons of excitement and everyone’s improving rapidly. At some point, we come up with a strange plan to capture a rare, magical animal to use as a class pet. This will somehow improve everyone’s dream control even more. We come up with this awful plan to cut down all of these ancient trees in an old growth forest to drive the creature out of its habitat so that we can more easily capture it.

      I’m embarrassed to say that I and nearly everyone else in the class was totally for this plan, but Dreamer is dead-set against it. She objects, begging the study group not to do this and not to destroy this creature’s way of life just to improve our skills a little bit. But everybody’s too excited about the plan to listen.

      Dreamer puts a desperate plan into motion. She announces in her workbook that, “I just GASSED!” (Meaning “passed gas”.) And somehow this amazingly strong, room-clearing stench hits the nose of every DV member at same time that she makes this announcement. Everyone stops what they’re doing, horrified.

      Now that she has farted her way into everyone’s attention, Dreamer gives a rousing, moving speech about how what we’re about to do is wrong and that we have to change out ways. She says that this magical creature should be free and that it should serve as an inspiration for us out there in its natural home. We shouldn’t be destroying the place that it loves.

      She convinces everyone and we halt our plans to deforest the fox's home. Instead, the study group travels out to the forest to commune with the creature and learn advanced dream control this way. The dream ends with a scene of several people sitting down meditating and several others talking about how inspired we all were by Dreamer’s speech.

      NLD #2: The Dreamsign
      After Dreamer and I exchanged Skype messages during WBTB, I had the following dream (and a huge missed dreamsign):

      I look over to see that I’ve received a skype message from Dreamer. It says, “You did wind up falling asleep, right?” I feel guilty for still being “awake” and looking at the clock instead of trying harder to get into a dream. I fret about this for a bit before finally replying with something jokey.

      It never occurs to me that she was basically trying to tell me that I’m dreaming right now.

      NLD #3: The Watch
      This one’s a little hazy, but Dreamer and I have come into possession of a complex, advanced wristwatch that an elderly black woman constructed by hand.

      From the top of a parking garage, we get into a car and ride around in the back seat, me watching as Dreamer disassembles the watch into all of these tiny pieces. I worry a bit about how to keep the pieces from getting lost in the car.

      We go to some other building to do something important and possibly dangerous, but I can’t recall what was involved.

      NLD #4: Hot Street Fighter II
      This dream was a cross between skyping and exchanging DV forum posts, the conversation taking place entirely between me and Dreamer.

      Dreamer: “I had a dream where you had these super HOT scenes with ladies from Street Fighter II.”

      She goes on to mention that she was telling a couple of other DV friends (including KristaNicole07) about the dream. She asks, “I wanted to know if it was okay to tell them you don’t have a beard.”

      I ask why they’d need to know that and Dreamer responds: “It’s really relevant to what happened in this dream.” Whatever the reason is that this is relevant, it appears to be highly amusing to her.

      After I woke up from this one it occurred to me that there is only one female character in the original Street Fighter II. Maybe we can count Cammy of Super Street Fighter II. Because otherwise, the dream implied that I had a “hot” scene with Blanka or Ken or one of the rest of the crew.

      Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

      Lucid #230: Bold Talk

      I’m at home, walking through the master bathroom toward the gym. I’m clumsy, staggering around like I’m dizzy or drunk. Out of nowhere there’s a buzzing noise, electric and unbearably loud. It reminds me of the transition into a dream and I realize that I’m dreaming right now.

      I don’t feel stable right away but I furiously rub my hands together, immediately remembering my goal to try to gain total control and confidence in this dream.

      “This is my lucid dream!” I bark. “I can do anything!” The gym looks dark and I don’t want to double back. It doesn’t matter, I remember right away that the next thing I want to do is phase outside. I phase through an external wall, expecting to end up outdoors but end up in some new, relatively empty room. It looks like it belongs in my house but it’s not a room that I recognize. Fine. Again! I try another phase through the outer wall…

      And wind up in a larger, more bare version of my master bathroom. I’m a little annoyed but I figure that confidence will carry me through this in the end. I hit a nose pinch reality check, breathing in and out a couple of times to cement in my mind that this is a dream.

      There’s a mirror and I look over at it to see a more hulking, slightly angrier-looking version of myself. I decide to try to summon Dreamer. I say, “There’s a woman here, right behind!” There’s an uncertain stir in the mirror’s image. I remember to hurriedly add, “And it’s gonna be Dreamer!”

      This isn’t working and I don’t have a DC to repurpose as Dreamer. I turn away from the mirror, intending to switch to a handshake summon, but
      the dream ends.

      Absoultely nothing! - not even the feeling that I had dreams and cant get to them! I sometimes wonder if nights like that during REM my mind isn't putting together anything coherent and is just a jumble of images etc , if that makes sense ? - any thoughts.

      The only thing I had last night was as I was drifiting off, having a dreamlet where I tripped on a kerbstone and woke up with my whole body emulating the action - I'm sure everyones had these - is there a name for that kind of dream? (The most vivid one of these I had was a man smashing a hammer down on my head.)

    5. Tales from the Dream Realm

      by , 08-10-2014 at 08:32 PM
      8/10/2014

      Chapter I: Three Travelers
      I don’t remember the events preceding but somehow some friends and I had come across three hikers in the snow. We were in a forest in the middle of winter. The forest was somewhat thin. The hikers were injured critically and were suffering from hypothermia. They had amnesia and had no idea what had happened or where they even were. Somehow we were able to surmise that there had been an avalanche and they were caught in it. We got them back to my apartment and took care of them. I do not remember how the hikers looked but I do remember talking with one of them. A young woman (probably mid to late 20s). I think she and I had an engaging conversation. I have a feeling that she shared with me aspects of her life that were of importance to her. I remember feeling particularly bad for her because her injuries were much more severe. I left her wondering if we would get a chance to speak again…we didn’t. She died the next morning.

      Chapter II: Necromancy
      There once was a man who believed in ghosts
      “I know them, I hear them, I see them,” he’d boast
      I worked with this man, I knew him well
      How this came to be, I couldn’t tell
      He came one day and shouted, “Come look!”
      “Look what I have! A magical book!”
      “This book is special,” he said to me.
      “Open this book and ghosts you will see.”
      The book was black, a green skull on the front
      It looked rather trite if I could be blunt
      “How does it work?” I asked this guy
      “Open the book, it will blow your mind!”
      “There’s a portal! A portal! A portal inside!”
      “That allows you to meet those who have died!”
      So I opened the book and so there was
      A window inside to ghosts abuzz
      The ghosts were green and had red eyes
      Then I heard a voice, “Have you lost your minds??”
      I look and I see, a woman is there
      I don’t recall her looks, not even her hair.
      The woman came up and then she said.
      “What is your problem? Are you sick in the head?”
      “Now listen here and listen you,”
      “Those ghosts are hostile. They’ll rip you in two!”
      What happens next, I cannot recall.
      So our chapter ends here. That is all.



      Chapter III: Zero-G
      It was a normal work day in the backroom at Walmart. It was the latter part of my shift and by this time I was doing picks. I was going to speak with coworker, Sean, about something when suddenly I saw him lift off of the ground. Soon after, I was off the ground too. We, along with several others there, were floating towards the ceiling.
      “God damn it!” Sean exclaimed, “Some idiot turned off the gravity again!” Fuck ups were commonplace at the store I worked but until now I had no idea that there was gravity plating beneath the floors of the backroom. I questioned the need for such a thing in a place like this and who on earth would have been stupid enough to reverse the gravity plates (which we apparently have)? I began to consider the consequences of what would happen should I break though one of the skylights. I began to panic at the thought of floating out into space and being lost forever. Anxious, I began to claw at the shelving just beneath me. My fears were unfounded as the gravity plates were set right and we all floated back down. I was embarrassed for panicking the way I did.

      Chapter IV: Night Ride
      For some reason, my car was out of commission so I had no other alternative but to ride my bike to work. The moon shone brightly in the sky as I rode through the commercial district of one of the small towns. Before I knew it there was a whole line of bikes ahead of me and behind me along with a few cars. I loved riding in this makeshift convoy. But my bike was uncomfortable because the handle bars were low so I pulled over onto the median, making sure to stay out of the way of the other riders, and pulled the handle bars as high as I could. So I rode on but the handle bars were still too low for me and it was very uncomfortable to ride. At the next light, I lowered my seats and was very grateful to the people behind me for their patience as the light had turned green as I was adjusting. They were all very cool about it and didn’t say a word. So I rode on and now I was comfortable. I vaguely remember making friends with a girl who was riding with us but I don’t remember much of the details behind that.
      I got to work and was ready to start unloading the truck. My heart race when I thought I heard my supervisor say that we had a 7000 piece truck to unload. I asked him again and I was sure he had said 7046 this time! Which was odd because I could see inside the truck and it didn’t look like that much. I walked up to him and asked how much we had to unload that day and I clearly heard him say 1746. A sigh of relief left as we started to unload the truck. I had a good feeling about tonight. I had a feeling that this was going to be a good night.

      Chapter V: The Machine
      There was a scientist who had managed to set up shop in the back rooms of Walmart. He was trying to work a machine that could open up portals to other worlds. His attempts were futile as the machine had never worked. But perhaps now it would. You see, this man had an ace up his sleeve. A young boy probably around thirteen or fourteen. This boy was his a assistant.
      He turned to this boy and said: “You there! You will be the one to power this machine! The power to make this work will come from you!” The man pulled out a small empty plastic box that was connected to the machine with a couple of wires. The boy stepped in and sat down in the box without saying a word. The man then activated the machine. Exact details of what happened next I cannot recall, I just vaguely remember sporadic bolts of electricity and the ultimate failure of his machine followed by curses from an angry scientist.
      “Damn! Damn! Damn!” He shouted, “Why didn’t it work!? Damn it, Boy! Why didn’t it work? Why didn’t my machine work!?” But the boy did not answer. He was dead.
    6. A Nap Time Dream, not much sleep last night

      by , 08-10-2014 at 08:27 PM (One Up Seeker)
      1.
      I was in my room(False Awakeing) and had just "gotten up" from my nap. I felt incredibly sick, and went to go look at myself in the mirror. As usual my lights were off and my whole room had that same blue tint to it that it always does when the lights are off. As I came in view of the mirror, I looked at myself. I looked really sick as well, my face was a little red and you could tell that I was extremely tired. I also could barely breath, through my nose and my mouth.
      It then occurred to me that because I was sick, I would get to skip workout day today, and this made me a little happy. I was so exhausted, and now I had to pee. I opened my door and walked into my restroom. Because of how tired I was, I just sat down on the toilet seat to take a pee. As I did, I rested my arm upon the ledge of my window directly to my left. I pulled down some of the blinds and looked outside into the afternoon sky. It looked rather dull and boring(which rarely happens in my dreams, I've only experienced dull and boring things about 3 or 4 times in dreams). Because of this, I didn't think that I was dreaming at all.
      After I finished my job on the toilet, I got up. I was too tired to lift my boxers back up, and for some reason, I had a shirt on. I started walking to my sink, but noticed that it wasn't there. It was completely gone. Instead, replacing where the 2 sinks in my restroom should be, was a huge window panel that stretched 10 feet wide. It was just like one of those sliding window screens that you can install in your house as an alternate entrance. I also saw a series of black panels, shoved to the side so that people could see through the windows.
      At this point, I looked at my hands and thought, "Am I dreaming?" Again, I didn't think so because of how dull the sky looked. I then got distracted from seeing people outside in my driveway. I looked down outside, and saw a lady and her baby in a stroller. She looked up through the windows and I'm sure she saw my dong. I quickly got behind the black panels and started spreading them out so no one could see inside of the restroom. For some reason, I didn't spread them completely.
      Suddenly, somehow my restroom extended and now there was another room attached to my restroom, directly in front of me(I know, kind of confusing). Now the lady and her baby in my driveway had turned into a cute teenage girl and her young sister. Now, I became semi-lucid, but still not fully lucid(I'm still not sure whether or not I became fully lucid). Anyways, I decided to stop hiding, and let my dong hang free in front of the teenage girl(no worries, we were about the same age). However, I kind of forgot that her sister was right next to her. :/
      The teenage girl came up into the extra room that had just appeared next to my restroom, but we were still blocked by a wall that separated the 2 rooms. Somehow I talked to her, and she told me to stick my hand out the window and touch her hand so we could become "ultra-best friends"(it didn't occur to me that I was being ultra-friendzoned at that same moment). I stuck my hand out of the window and touched hers in the next room. Somehow the wall that separated us disappeared and the rooms became one.
      I came into the room the girl was in and talked to her and her sister. They asked me if I could drive them around in my car, I said sure. With this, the teenage girls little sister gave me around 10 kisses on my right cheek. I then told the teenage girl, "Ooh , that's going to be hard to top.", in a way that made it sound like I favored the little girl more, just so I could get the teenage girl to do more. The teenage girl came up to me and gave me 3 kisses. I have no idea why, but this turned me on(lol) and my animal insticts became activated. I controlled myself.
      Later we went outside and in my driveway now was a random van. The teenage girl knew this van and so I got inside along with them. We drove away to who knows where, and I didn't even know who was driving. I just went with the flow. As I was relaxing and enjoying the ride, I told the teenage girl that she was a good kisser(joking around) and she looked at me weird as though I just freaked her out and then she moved as far as she could to the left side of the seat to be as far away from me as possible. I felt kind of awkward from here on and just sat there and chilled.

    7. Slight dry spell [10/08/14]

      by , 08-10-2014 at 07:30 PM (My lucid comeback!)
      I think I'm having a slight dry spell as DR is quiet bad lately, I've also lost a bit of motivation. Hopefully I will have another LD soon so I can gather some will again.

      Dreams weren't very interesting, I was trying to hit some nuts with a baseball bat but I couldn't hit them unless I swung the bat over my head.

    8. No DR [09/08/14]

      by , 08-10-2014 at 07:28 PM (My lucid comeback!)
      Last night I had some very vague fragments of dreams that weren't very interesting.

      1. Viva las Vegas

      I'm somewhere up high in a penthouse and I can look over a bright city somewhere in the desert that I call 'Las Vegas'. I tell my mother that even though it looks very nice, it's just another city.

    9. Two lucids!

      by , 08-10-2014 at 05:53 PM
      First Dream

      I woke up in the hallway of my house,in a dream, and remember seeing my nan talking to someone else, and I was irritated that they woke me up so I can't lucid dream. I checked the time; 8:20am. I then went back to sleep, remember hearing buzzing and feeling water in my ears and entering another dream - I thought I had successfully WILD'ed, but later on of course realized it was just an FA and then a DILD.I was lucid. I appeared in my room and the lamps were on, I ran outside my room to the living room. It was night time outside. Both my siblings were on the couch, and I told them that I was lucid dreaming. My brother said, "cooool" skeptically. I went up to the door of my living room which opens onto the garden and looked up at the sky. There I saw the Moon, so I thought it'd be cool to change the time to day, so I held up my right hand and pushed the moon down across the sky, and then once the Sun appeared on the horizon I pushed it up to about noon. It became day and sunny. Pleased with myself, I ran outside and tried to summon Ani, this girl I had created in my imagination, because I wanted to do it as a kind of experiment if I could design people and bring them into my dreams. I held out my hand behind me and imagined her and willed her to appear like with Justin Bieber the other night, but instead my girlfriend appeared.
      Still, I wasn't complaining. It wasn't exactly what I wanted but since I haven't seen my girlfriend for about a month and won't see her for another few weeks because I'm on holiday, I thought it could be a fun dream anyway. We made out in front of my house in the sunshine, laughing all the way. It was a beautiful experience. Then I stood up, not wanting to use my whole dream up on kissing, said my goodbye and walked onto the road. I then proceeded to walk to our local shop, the shelves of which were very unusually empty and there were people everywhere all holding the same item, which I can't remember what it was but I think big cartons of apple juice. They were all arguing and complaining, and then I remember seeing my dad start touching up some random guy, so I without further ado I got out of there. Outside I tried to materialize an apple pie in my right hand but it wouldn't appear, though I did feel some tingling.
      I then saw a massive chair factory to my left, and decided that my siblings and I should try to rob it. We ran over there and my brother and I started loading chairs into this forklift-like vehicle.
      The chairs were all flatpacked, and I broke one accidentally when I dropped it. The people at the factory soon noticed, but there was also another gang of furniture thieves who occupied their attention. I think that by that point I had lost most of my lucidity, because why the hell would I be stealing chairs in a lucid dream?
      In any case, then someone intervened and said that we'd play a game of cops and robbers of sorts, and the chair thieves would be in teams and be given a head start and then we'd get chased down. But in the end it came down to me sprinting away from the factory and these people trying to chase me down. When I came out of the factory grounds, I saw my old physics teacher coming the opposite direction and he said, "On my start" and I stopped and said I had already started. He winked and told me that he was trying to help me. So I kept running. But I was running my fastest when this girl caught up to me and tapped my back, like it was a game of It. I stopped, knowing that I'd lost. But then sprayed a deck of cards in her face, for which I got criticised by my physics teacher. Yeah, no lucidity at all by that point.
      I woke up and looked at my phone: 7:58am.

      Second Dream

      A few friends and I were at some kind of airport, waiting for someone's auntie. When she came I decided she was definitely a MILF. Then we were walking down a street close to my house and BAM, lucidity. I broke away from the group and decided to go have sex with someone, since I sensed that the dream was really shallow anyway and would end quite soon. There were numerous girls on bicycles but they were quite fast, so I telekinetically made their bikes break down and stop. But I was way too picky damnit. After stopping one or two girls I saw another one pass me, and she was very fit. So I waved my hand, imagining the front wheel of the bike coming off. It did, but the bike turned into a car. It spun out on the hard shoulder of the road. I went up to the car. A man also did, opened the door and sat inside, talking to the woman. They were husband and wife. I opened the door, grabbed the man's head and threw it out of the car, the body vanished. She looked at me horrified as I sat next to her.
      She said, "You just threw a human head out of the car!"
      Me: "Nonono, it was just a piece of dust." - just wanting to get the talking over with.
      Her: "No, it was definitely a human head."
      Me: "No it wasn't! It was just some dust!" And I sidled over to her, admiring her body. And then the dream dissolved too quickly for me to do anything in the way of stabilization, and vanished. I woke up.

    10. (August 10, 2014) Abandoned building of fear

      by , 08-10-2014 at 05:52 PM
      I fell back asleep after remembering these dreams so bear with me

      my rating 4/5

      +First dream is on a foggy day, i am driving in my truck to a camping location. i have friends and family following behind me in another vehicle. we drive through a strange trail of twists, turns and bridges. we see other people camping as we drive by. the grass has some gravel in the tire marks of old tracks so we know where to go. otherwise it is not maintained, the grass is tall. we come over to a bridge, very narrow but the vehicles drop down a few inches once off it because the bridge drops abruptly. we drive off to the campsite. I dont remember much about the actual site itself, i remember walking around observing the landscape. eventually we decide to drive back, and we get as far as the bridge but the vehicles cant drive back over it because of the drop off,so i get out and decide to cross the little water way under the bridge. it is very short but i find out it gets super deep. its also cloudy water. i am handed a heavy pack and it almost sinks to the bottom so i grab it and get out and search for a new way over.

      +This dream was kind of creepy. I was with someone, in an old abandoned house in a old style town, like almost colonial times. the house was barren of almost everything, at least in the main areas like the foyer and the hallways, was just dirt and dust everywhere as if wind had blown it around over things. we had to leave because we were going to be found so we went back into this dark room full of candles, a few tables, and a skull, and had to blow out all the candles, making the room pitch black. while i was leaving i walked by a pool of water that must have been from leaking roof or pipes, it was in a little pocket in the dirt. a man and two woman appeared and started talking to me,i walked over till my feet were ankle deep in the water, the man and one of the woman disappeared, and the third woman tried pulling me under water but i broke free from her grip and got out of there. i was then out at some old place that looked like my grandfather's liquor store with a friend. it was the dark of night and the only light was out front. we walked out back where there was a crowd of pale creepy looking people staring at me. i stopped for a moment and i think my friend left. one guy with a shaven head and a jailbird outfit came over and started to attack me, saying something about leaving the house. i had no choice but to fight back. i pulled out my smith and wesson swat folding knife and retaliated. he said "nice try but i can just close this" not knowing the lock was engaged holding it open and i cut his hand, the then tried something that was very painful, like wow couldn't believe how real that felt for a dream, and my stomach hurt like crazy but i told my self keep calm, the military wont need someone who will break under pressure, and i used the knife, (leaving out details here), and killed him. another person tried attacking me but i just threw him far. then the dream ended.

      +I got back up and fell back asleep and had another dream. first, i was in an old house know i have been in before. and was trying to explore all its room but i was limited trying to keep my younger brothers away from going so they wouldn't be lost or hurt. so i never got to the room i wanted to. i saw part of it and knew ive seen it before, and don't know why i did not become aware of it. i eventually ended up at a colorful museum and play place type thing where i climbed colorful stairwells into other rooms where i found a box, but i had to climb up ropes to get it, which i did. the feeling of climbing the rope felt pretty real. i eventually got the box but never looked inside.

      i have seen this type of building before many time in dreams, the one directly above. or at least, the color scheme is put on a lot of buildings. i also saw an old house i have not seen in a long time in my dreams. both are not real places but memories of places i created in dreams.
    11. A short lucid, but fulfilled a dream goal!

      Dream

      I was travelling with two people - a guy and a girl. I remember having a camp somewhere snowy, blizzardy even, and I remember that we were getting chased by this monster thing. Soon I was in my house, with the guy and girl nowhere to be seen, but there were guards patrolling outside the house, protecting me. I had some kind of electric superpower, so because I was bored I pointed my hands towards the window and charged my power, just in time for one of the guards to walk past my window. I couldn't stop myself and electrocuted him. He fell down, pale as dead people are. Another guard quickly ran over and inspected the body, trying to wake him up. The eyes jolted open and the guard started. The eyes then closed. I knew what was going on - the bad magic that was following us was turning the guard into a zombie.
      I ran out of my room into the corridor and then the living room, hearing a scream from the guard and an exclamation along the lines of, "He bit me!" and then he entered through the front door. I asked if he'd been bitten. He showed me his arm, with a nasty, swelled up bite on his forearm. I knew there was no hope for him so I was gonna kill him, but then realised he can still fight and killing him would turn him into a zombie anyway. Meanwhile, the other guard, now turned into a ghostly white, toddler-sized monster with a relatively big head, small torso and spider-like arms and legs ran into the room and burrowed into the wall.
      There were by now other people in the room, trying to see where the monster thing went. Cracks started appearing in the walls and ceiling before it re-emerged from the wall, ran a bit along it. I electrocuted it but it recovered quickly. Turns out, these things were notoriously difficult to kill. People were trying to hack it with swords, there appeared more monsters, it turned into a battle. I was electrocuting every nonhuman thing I could find. In amidst the chaos there was what looked like a young woman with completely black eyes (as in, no whites could be seen) and black hair. She was actually pretty hot even though her eyes were so strange. She turned out to be some vampire-like being, only without fangs, and she was commandeering the monsters. She grabbed my hand and bit it, but not in a vicious way at all, more like seductively. I looked at my hand and saw what looked essentially like a lovebite. I felt myself getting worried that I'd turn into a zombie, but then I thought, "wait, this is a dream, I won't turn into a zombie".
      I became lucid.
      I thought it was tempting to have sex with this woman...but then I remembered my LD goals and how I've wanted to punch Justin Bieber for ages and how I recently read about a summoning DC technique that might work. I ran outside through my front door and fell onto the grass, stabilizing the dream.Just in front of my house I put my hand behind me, imagined Justin Bieber and willed him to take my hand. Once he did, I led him around to in front of me. He was grinning like an idiot and didn't have a hat that I imagined him with, but it was Bieber nonetheless. I proceeded to make a solid punch across his face. He spun around on the spot and toppled onto the floor. Mission accomplished. The dream was destabilizing so I threw myself down onto the grass again, but the dream dissolved and I woke up.

    12. The Note

      by , 08-10-2014 at 05:47 PM
      Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

      Lucid #229: The Note

      I’m sitting in a restaurant and something feels off to me. I stand up to find Wife standing here beside me and I realize that a lucid dream has started. “Do you want to come along?” I ask Wife.

      “Sure, okay!” she responds rather happily. This is a nice change because she’s normally more involved in the dream plot and not as cooperative.

      I walk outside of the restaurant with Wife, opening the glass door to walk through. Oops, I’d meant to do a phase for the competition! I try to quickly phase through it while it’s open. I phase my arm through the door and then start moving the rest of my body through, Wife giving me a very strange look. The door becomes flimsy in the middle of the attempt and starts folding in on itself. I gyrate my hips, trying to hurry through before it collapses, and I’m very conscious that it totally looks like I’m humping it.

      The door becomes completely unmanageable and the scene comes apart as I fall into the void. I hand-rub for a bit to wait this out but sense that something is close to my face, something that I can chew on. I bite down on it and it tastes like a soft, very mild licorice. I usually hate licorice but there’s something about this that makes it a little more bearable, sort of like it’s been crossed with bubble gum somehow.

      I keep chewing and chewing, walking forward through the void. I eat fast, consuming yards of the stuff as I walk forward. After a while, it just feels like it’s been too long in the void and that I need to do something about it. For some reason I raise both of my arms over my head before calling out, “Dreamer, pull me out!” I don’t feel any physical contact, but almost immediately find myself standing in my darkened master bedroom, no longer in the void.

      There’s a piece of paper stuck on the opposite wall covered with large, handwritten letters. I interpret this as being a note that Dreamer has left for me. It looks like gibberish, so I move forward, trying to get a better look. It rearranges itself, but it’s still unreadable. Then the letters rearrange into:

      “Sorry couldn’t read reply, check the”

      I interpret this as meaning there’s something I’m meant to read, but I don’t know what. This is relevant for later… see the end of this entry!

      I wander out into the hall, which is lit up like it’s morning. I remember my intent to phase and try to phase through my youngest child R’s door. Unfortunately the door just comes open instead of letting me phase and I see R beginning to stir around in bed. This sounds like a good way to get wrapped up in a dream plot, so I back away into the hall.

      I fly down the stairs to the kitchen area to see that the breakfast table has been moved far to the side and that almost the entire area is covered with Lego pieces. The coolest part is that most of them have been assembled into these amazing, moving models of roads, freeways, machines, amusement park carousels, and all kinds of other things. It’s really vivid, so much so that it’s hard to shake the feeling that I’m viewing a scene from waking life. I think that in this scenario, Wife must have stayed up all night building this.

      I leave through the back door, finding myself in a park walking along a red dirt path dotted with autumn leaves. I follow the path into a building with large plate glass windows all around its walls. I look back at the park through the window, marveling at how realistic it looks when I shift my perspective. I feel excited and happy to see this, saying, “I can’t believe my mind generated all of this.”

      I remember again that I’d meant to phase, so I walk toward one of the plate glass windows, anticipating an easy phase. Unfortunately, before I get there,
      the dream ends.

      Notes: Here’s something cool. Immediately upon waking up, I removed my sleep mask and looked over at the clock. Just as I was looking at it, my iPod’s screen came on with a notification. I popped it open and just at that moment I’d received a Skype message from Dreamer.

      This was really exciting to me because of what the note had said earlier (“Sorry couldn’t read reply, check the”), and the timing was perfect. I guess that the end of the message would have been “check the iPod”. Pretty cool!

    13. Competition Entry # 14

      by , 08-10-2014 at 05:41 PM
      What a shame, the comp is over now - it was such great fun!! I can only hope, that I'll keep up the journalling further on...


      Going for a final effort I wanted to achieve my first WILD per WBTB - nope, again not, I gave up after 25 min., rolled over and got a DILD in the following dream.

      LD #1: I become lucid in a car-park - again I can't say, what did it, just like that. Nose-plug - yepp. I want to have a stable dream, before I do something, so I walk about doing as if nothing was, like I had before. Taking care not to interact with anything too closely, hehehe... Okay - next thing planned is my personal task, teleportation to an alien planet with meet and greet with the inhabitants. I do it by spinning very fast and imagining exotic landscape.
      When I stop, I am indeed somewhere else and have really fine optics, but it's not exotic at all - I'm on a beautiful endless field of hip-high grass, but looks very much like earth, and nobody around. So I think - okay - this is another planet, because I say so, and proof will be the alien, I will summon. There's nothing, from behind which I could have her come around, so I try this thing with hand behind my back for the first time. But nothing happens, I try for a while and wake up then...

      My very first teleportation ever!! Should have just put that as personal task - typical over-ambition biting me in the butt! But I'm very excited about it - there will be a lot of lucid spinning coming up!!


      Dream #1: I'm back at the house - it gets on my nerves, in hindsight, but I'm always happy about finding it in the dream. Somebody else lived in the bungalow, and that was what we might get back, even while people have bought it. They made a hole in the front wall for a big door to the garden, behind it they had created a room, which you could use as a winter-garden. Whatever. The grass in the garden was over knee-high, and I wanted to get out the scythe for cutting it, but then came from the neighbouring house a guy on a mowing machine, sitting on it, driving it, and he did the job for me. When he was through, there were tons of dandelion plants, just the green stuff, and I went at them with some digging tool. Then a girl comes around, says hi - wants to play darts with me - well - of course!! But we don't have a board, we have some weird plastic thing, lying on the floor, and throw at that.

      Dream #2: Theoretically I am at university, but turns out, I can't understand the stuff, and have to go back to school. I first think, this will be repeating the last class, but turns out they put me in 8th grade, and tried to not tell me about it. Well - yeah - not much worth of describing - it's about maths, what I didn't understand, and I tried to get books for that, and didn't help. I meet a friend from school, who does some boring job at the reception of a hostel, and think, naa - you got to go through with it, not to end up in a job like hers, but it's humiliating to be with the kids in a class. Yeah - last scene - I miss the bus despite running all out...

      Dream #3: It has elements from the book I started at the moment 'The Bohr Maker' by Nagata Linda - great science fiction. It's about a nano-technologically modified guy, illegally so, and he tries to be allowed to be left living. He has something, which helps him breathe back his own oxygen continuously by using a sort of collar, which covers up his mouth and nose and ears, too. He's hiding in our flat from the police, and my husband comes up with the idea of feeding him into his computer, and then manifesting him as a cartoon-figure, which jumps off from the screen, looking like Super Mario, and maybe 15 cm of height. He's doing all these sounds and pirouettes and things, like in the video game. For some reason, this is allowed, and he's very happy.

      Fragment #1: I said not long ago, I wouldn't dream of posting - since then, I do! Yeah - about the dangers of lucidity - I forgot, what somebody saw as a problem, and who all posted replies to that...

      Fragment #2: On my way home, and again, there's another way, which I am sure, I saw before in another dream, but which doesn't exist.

    14. "The Doctor"

      by , 08-10-2014 at 05:04 PM (Threecat's Dreamtime)
      Ah, but not that doctor, sorry.

      I am driving over a bridge with my wife. I make some mistake and suddenly our car is flying through the air. I ask my wife what I should do, but then decide not to land in the water (as I once heard that landing a plane in the water is a terrible idea). I realize, as the ground is rushing up to meet us, that I've made an error. I apologize to my wife before impact, as I believe we are about to die. She tells me to try to land the car as best I can. We hit the ground and crash hard.

      Lawrence Fishburne appears in an EMT outfit. I tell him to rescue my wife and he does. Later, I am asking him how I could have possibly survived the crash. He says the "doctor" . . . "cleaned my kidneys!" In dream I think this is amazing, as I only thought kidneys could be removed. He said "the doctor" considered taking them, but then just decided to clean them out. Lucky me! I ask about my wife. He says there is fluid in her lungs and "the doctor" is still working on her.

      But perhaps . . . perhaps it was The Doctor?


      Otherwise, a few more day residue and job-related dreams. In one of them, I am furious at my wife for making me lose at a board game. She drew a "betrayal" card from the stack, which allowed her to tell everyone what my hand was! Also a bit of a fragment here of a dog turning over and over and over against a closed door.

      Really wishing I had pulled an LD out of that one!

    15. Some fragments...

      by , 08-10-2014 at 04:14 PM (4th DJ-Attempt)
      .../It was night and I was about to finish my job when an old guy gets in the scene and attacks me. He doesn't look sober, and it seems he has some mental disorder. He's in sandals, wearing shorts and an unbuttoned Hawaiian shirt. He tries to kick the package I have in hand, which I wasn't able to deliver because of there were something wrong with all the delivery stuff. He starts saying things in German, and it seems he's insulting me because of his face expression. I try to answer and realize that I'm not that good in this language and I cannot translate what I want to tell him. I babble a couple of words trying to tell him he's sort of coward faggot, but it doesn't seem to hurt him because of he answers something like "That's right!". Then I try to tell him, "Then go and fuck your self with a pretty long stick into your ass!!", to what he replies with something like "I've already done that!" while going away/...

      * Wake up frustrated...

      .../I'm with my foster mother, telling her some recent stories I lived which includes some anecdotes that include my biological mother's origins, when I realize she doesn't like to hear it/...

      .../We are gathering in my wife's friend's house. I go out with her to show where we are living now, it's a seventh floor, and I have to count the floors to point our apartment window/...

      * It's nice that I finally saw more details about that apartment.
