I couldn't remember my dream from yesterday, but from this night I could. I am having trouble to remember, but I am working on it.

I had two dreams fragments.

Fragment 1
This dream was about a series called W.I.T.C.H. (yes, I am watching this. I watch 'kid' series when I am stressed because it calms me down).
There was something about air or water powers and who's power is bigger/better/higher than the other. I see it as a triangle. But what is weird that I found/felt that the air and water powers are the greatest or the best, but I visualize a triangle were water and air power are at the bottom and not on top as I was feeling.
Here is an amazing homemade triangle that I visualized or also felt kind off =D, but I saw the words written in the elements (the letters are like water drops or vines from plants)

Fragment 2
I don't really remember a story (for me in dreams, I mostly dream like you are reading a book or watching a series. Like it is a story), this dream didn't have a story. I think I remember seeing myself or the dc character that represents me. I felt a strong desire for the movie or the name Peabody (movie Mr. Peabody & Sherman). What is weird that I don't know this movie (I watched the trailer like 4 moths ago), I have never seen this movie or had any strong desire to watch the movie.


I had also trouble writing down both fragments, because I was so tired that while repeating the dream in my head, before writing it down, I fell asleep again >.<

non-dream dream semi-lucid lucid false awakening

I'm attending my guru's teachings and a sequence of odd experiences happen. At some point he plays a drum in a certain beat pattern, without explaining its importance or decoding its meaning. Then he leaves his seat and a midle-aged lady student moves in to play the drum, trying to recreate the same sound. She thinks it's ike a mantra, that we can replicate to help our meditation. But she doesn't play it right. I feel some uncomfort, like knowing she shouldn't be doing it, but it's not my business to decide that, so wat I do is correct her and guide her to play the right beats. At this point I feel my guru's eyes on the back of my head. I turn around but he isn't there. I also leave.
Then I am with my guru, but the timeline is not linear. I left with him and a group of select people who will stay with him for the next hours as he meditates and eventually doozes off in a more private place. He sits in the middle and we sit around on mattresses. We will be there supposedly for 17 hours, meditating and sleeping. At this point the lady hasn't plaid the drum yet, but then we hear the sound. The guru is a bit upset. Not only it disrupts this quiet moment we're meant to have, but this drumming sound is a sacred sound that shouldn't be plaid by just anybody. From this place here he sticks his eyes into the back of my head on that room, knowing all too well that my good heart enabled that lady to play that drum.
So he closes his eyes, but he also gets out and personally ensures this lady is punished with temporary incarceration on a cave nearby. I just know all of this because I see it all happening in my mind. As soon as he leaves the cave (and during all that time he was just sitting straight, eyes closed in front of me), I sneak out from this room, to go see the lady. i feel guilty, because I encouraged her to play and taught her the right beats, so I should be incarcerated, not her. I sneak out of the room silently, everybody is meditating eyes closed or sleeping, so I assume no one seems me going.
I find a way to communicate with the lady inside the cave and to say I'm sorry for her torment.
I can feel the presence of my guru, of course he knows I'm there, the whole time we've been in more than one place at the time and our actions seem to be all interconnected. She is me and I am him and he is me and I am her. He is smiling from afar.

This dream is of me playing GTA and minecraft, I don't see myself in the dream, just the game.

So it starts off as a GTA dream, it appears to be a secluded area, there's no one around and it's quite an urban area. But then someone else is in the game, I try to get them to come to the Statue of Liberty with me in the game. I try sending them a message but the person just gets in some sort of plane and flies off and around this island. Then the dream changes, I'm still in the same place, but now I'm playing minecraft, I don't remember much about this dream, but I remember me mining into the wall next to me and I find a mob spawner, but it has every mob in the game in this tiny room. I notice I have no iron left, so I decide to go in a mine so I can get some.

This morning, I was determined to attempt some kind of wake-induced technique. I had told myself that, if I was able to not move upon waking, I would try a DEILD, if I did move, I would try a WILD. As I moved before I realised I was awake, I decided to try a WILD. Just before bed I had watched a quite detailed video on the "stop, drop and roll" technique to WILD, so I did it.

The switching of positions went well, I did them at the right time. Once I had rolled over on my right side, I spent a few minutes trying to fight back the urge to move my legs and I managed well, so it finally ceased. Then, I started feeling my body was very heavy and I waited for the HI and HA to start. But apparently, they didn't come. Instead, I had the feeling I lost consciousness during (I guess) a few seconds and suddenly I would find myself in a dream-like scenario. This would last around half a minute and then I would find myself again in my bed, feeling that heaviness. This happened at least three times. I don't remember the first two of these scenarios, but I do the third. I was with two friends in a girl's car (I met them yesterday and we were sitting in the same way) and we were going to Tarragona through the highway (I did that road yesterday). The girl who was driving pointed out there was fog, but it looked like it was stuck to the ground. All of a sudden, I felt a drop of saliva tickling down my cheek and I awoke again. I started thinking about the "dream" that seemed to have started and I had the feeling I wasn't aware that I was entering a dream. "Dammit, you're not doing all this to have a non-lucid, stay aware". From that point on I kept saying to myself "I am dreaming", waiting for the next dream scenario to form. I felt my body vibrating (and the arm and shoulder I was resting on started to really hurt) and every now and then I would see a scene flashing before my eyes and vanish within seconds. I can't really tell if those were thoughts of mine, but it seemed they came involuntarily. However, not once I was able to hold on to one and let the dream form. Finally, my arm was hurting so bad I couldn't stand it anymore and I gave in and rolled over the other side. After that, I was unable to sleep anymore.

I have no idea how long this whole thing took, because I didn't look at the clock before I started, but I think it must have been 45 to 60 minutes. I felt really frustrated because on so many occasions it seemed like I was amost there, but I'm glad that I was closer to success this time than I've been in the other few attempts I've done.

Note: This is the first dream in about 3 years in which I can feel 'touch'. Unlike 3 years ago, the sensation wasn't more intense than in wake life, it was pretty equal

Dream Summary:
(1) Yesterday I spent the whole day on DV, so of course I'm dreaming of DV. It was a house and there was a bunch of people doing sleep experiments and trying stuff. I decided I wanna do one of those experiments, so I went into a certain room. It looked a bit like a hospital, there were some beds and on the beds there were camels, huge camels, with some pillows on their backs. One has lost its pillow, so I gave it another one. Then I climbed on top of it. For some reason the whole room was underwater now. I had some glasses and decided to wear them, then I realized I can see very clearly underwater. Sadly one of those glasses broke and I couldn't see that well anymore. I kinda managed to destroy many glass in the room (unintentionally). People were angry at first, but then we all laughed about it. I think we were talking about the movie "Finding Nemo" then. That's my favorite movie for children.
Later when I wanted to go there was another group which tried this experiment. They were all sleeping and some of them were naked for some reason. I was curious, I wanted to feel the camel skin/hair, so I approached it and touched it. Then I've actually felt it. I guess I never feel in my normal dreams because I don't focus on touch so much. The reason I'm starting to feel in my dreams now might be Daytime awareness.
I also met someone who was surprisingly nice to me.

Morning of April 27, 2014. Sunday.



I am part of a Star-Trek-like team that is on a mission to a distant planet (which seems to have no oceans or larger bodies of water) where dessert recipes will be shared as a part of some sort of potential long-term truce between at least the two main groups that had been enemies. There does not seem to be any aliens, though, mostly people who live on other worlds under different laws and cultural foundations. The spaceships do not really seem like Star Trek spaceships, though. They have somewhat of an industrial look, reminding me more of the original “Battlestar Galactica” series (never saw any of the newer version).

There is a lot of focus on two large containers, which are a bit lake mason jars but fairly big. Each jar is full of apricot and pineapple jelly - with chunks of each in each mix. Both jars look like they are holding the same recipe end results even though they supposedly came from completely different cultures with different tastes and ideas about food. The pineapple pieces are about one-fifth of a circular slice. I have some of it from (I think) a different container (for “testing”) and it tastes nice. This is rather odd, as my wife and I had just had a discussion in real life about how we have hardly ever had dreams of eating anything, and even so, how the taste usually seems “off” or different somehow. In this case, though, it tastes exactly as it should (which means there is a first time for everything as my mother used to say).

Over time, there seems to be confusion about why the two desserts taste so similar. There is not any anger at that point, though, just a sort of tentative suspicion, mostly on the part of the team who has landed on the planet (the other, more seemingly militant group, remaining in orbit, it seems). However, the last scene involves the “other side”, which is a man that appears to be Chinese, who suddenly grabs both jars and stands with his team members who are now assuming an aggressive stance. They appear to be standing on a narrower wooden bridge, perpendicular to where the other group’s smaller spaceships (possibly shuttles) are “parked”.

“I fight!” he calls out as his final words of whatever their conversation was about, and still holding the two jars, planning to take both back to his world.

Suddenly, realizing that he had been deceived, the leader of the other group gives orders to shoot them down. Lasers flash out in several beams at the other group from the small spacecrafts as they rise in the air at the same time (some of the men still standing about, though, including the leader), but the members of the other group are already being beamed away safely as the lasers go through them (or rather, through their residual after-image left as the transporting is being completed) with no threat to their well-being. The other leader looks extremely annoyed and disappointed at having lost both containers of apricot and pineapple jelly and also looks worried about the intensifying war on the horizon.

Shitty situation/ nightmare that turns into an LD:

I was drinking beer with some friends at a restaurant when they take off right when my food arrives. I get a to go box, wrap my food up and go to the front to check out. I had two beers and one plate of food and this lady tries to charge me $70. I look at the bill and I get charged for my order, one of my friends order, and a separate charge for insulting the waiter (I really did). I tell her that's bullshit and I'm not paying. I try to walk out and she attempts to shut the front door and lock me in. I grab the door as she's shutting it and dip out. I start running because I thought she was calling the cops. After running a block or so I was thinking, ok this is ridiculous. This isn't real. I don't even do an RC, I just take off flying forward.

I'm flying insanely fast in between these rows of telephone poles which seem to never end. I try to fly out from in between these poles but I fear slamming into them. I remember that they're not even really there so I crash into one on my left and phase through it and notice the white light shining to show I was phasing through it (Any time I phase through something it shines white light). As I continue to fly I arrive in an empty city made of glass buildings. There are no streets or anything else on the ground except grass. I wanted to practice shooting lightning out of my hands so I land on top of of one of the buildings. The top of the building is something like a 5 by 5 perfect square divided by individual squares. The glass square I land on starts to shatter so I jump, and it's like a 50 or 60 foot drop. When I land there's no impact which I was pretty happy about. I see an opening in one of the buildings and walk inside. After going down a ramp I end up in an office surrounded by individual rooms with all the doors and walls being glass. A portly man with glasses is working in a room so I try to shoot him with lightning. Nothing happens. I look at my right hand and flex my forearm. A blue light materializes in my palm and I extend my arm and push out about a yards worth of lightning out. After doing this with both hands multiple times I can't extend the length or width of the lightning. All of the sudden a monk walks down the ramp into the office, like bald head, orange robe, the whole nine. He shoots lightning out of his hand about the same distance I can (I should have tripped since a DC had powers, something I'm really concerned about and should've been more concerned about), but just more condensed. I should have asked him what he was or what he represented but I just kept trying to get my lightning blast bigger. Out of nowhere this iguana comes down the ramp into the office and gets on this monks shoulder. For no reason the scene transports me to a computer and I slip into non-lucidity and like this fucking iguana's post on Facebook then wake up. These LDs are getting ridiculous.

I was watching a documentary or show on Navy sailors committing suicide by drowning themselves when the ship would start to sink. They would tie themselves down to something and wait for the water to rise. I was suddenly on a ship while there was a thunderstorm going on. There were people shooting at us and a teammate was trying to save a downed man. I was crouching behind cover yelling at the guy to run. There were enemies above us on a catwalk. I shot at a few of them while my teammate tried saving the other guy.

Dream
Lucidity

I had gone back to the prison to get or do something. I went to Master Control and C. Sanchez was working there. A few officers were escorting an inmate and he kicks on of them so I jump in to take him down but everyone jumps in also so I can't really do much.The inmate gets up and then starts talking reckless to me so I was about to beat him up but officers start defending him and I even have to slam a black officer to the ground cus he was so aggressive. I leave A building and I'm in the parking lot. I try looking for my car but can't find it. I try not to run because of my shin injuries but do it anyways and nothing hurts. I get past traffic and I'm walking down the street. A girl passes me and I ask for a ride but she says no so I keep walking back to my house. I think I might be dreaming and count my fingers.
Everything starts feeling more real and I count 10 fingers on one hand. I start running and, remembering a hint to increase lucidity a guy on the forums gave me, slap my hands together. I then rub them and yell "Increase lucidity!" and everything becomes more clear. As I walked I looked at the ground and thought of what to do. I thought maybe explore the dream but didn't.
I lose lucidity and keep walking. I was in Venezuela now and walking on Avenida Victoria. I remember seeing my multitool on the floor by some trashbins and picking it up.

Journal Entry Lucid #30 Dream,Lucid, (Comments)
Background:I meditated before going to sleep. I told myself I could have a LD but it is ok if I don't have one just as long as I could remember my dream. I wasn't as confident since I have slacked for a couple of days.

Dream fragment 2 time 2:05am-3:32am"":
I was in my school next to Biological place. I see Elvis as I talk to an old man about the devil. I then see another Elvis.

I realized it was a dream. I started rubbing my hands and it went to the VIOD again! I said not this time. I started to swing my arms back and forth and I started to will a scene. I didn't know what I was going to get though. I then lifted my hands with rage and I see a rainbow screen like the one you get on stations that are not working temporarily. I am in my room. I thought I might have woken up, before emotions could get to me I did a quick RC. Noseplug and kept on going. My television was turned on. It was as though my eyes were looking through a 90s camera. I see me as a kid and my sister. We were picture perfect. She was wearing a jacket that she once loved. (When I brought it up in real life she remembered the jacket) . I have a camera on my hands. I see me and my sister not caring about the world enjoying life. I envied myself. I then woke up in the dream and lost lucidity. I didn't wake up right away after that so I forgot some details.

Journal Entry Lucid #29 Dream,Lucid, (Comments)
Background: I watched X-men first class, ate some food then I meditated before going to sleep. I told myself I could have a LD but it is ok if I don't have one just as long as I could remember my dream. I wasn't as confident since I have slacked for a couple of days.

Dream fragment 2 time 5:15am-6:40am"":
Dream was about being in the desert and I am magneto running from Sebastian Shaw. Shaw is having his fun making nukes in the desert. Since dream is long I will shorten it up just for the lucid. So I was in a bar when I was informed that Sebastian has sent some men to go after me. I flew out and levitated next to a car junk yard. I looked down realized that I am flying and concluded

it was a dream. His gang came in convertibles. I see a car beneath me. I levitated up and I toss it at the convertibles. This was the first time I levitated a car but since I didn't think about how difficult it would have been it felt easy. I then started throwing car after car. I then thought why am I wasting my time throwing cars. I landed and got inside a sports car. I looked around environment changed a bit. I am now in the heart of the desert, no other cars around me but one. I didn't care, it looked cool when I drove off. I didn't need keys for the car to go too. It started up and I went as fast as I can. I look at back mirror and I see the trial of dust I am leaving. I kept on driving. I looked down for maybe a second looking at the car seating. I get out and I am inside my neighborhood. I decide to fly again. I realized that the environment was getting too bright. The clouds were shining and the sun was half the sky. I started to fly fast around neighborhood. I see the objects as elongated images before I reach them. It was trippy. Environment still getting brighter, I though I might wake up. I then charged at the sun as a challenge. I thought you can't wake me up. I flew faster and faster and everything started getting blurry and I woke up. I guess that is what I get.

I Challenge You to a Game of Ping-Pong!....After We Clean This Table (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I love how I wanted to play ping-pong instead of trying to extract some information from my mind for something to apply to waking life. But nope, spent the whole dream trying to clean a table to play ping-pong, only for someone to intervene and stop the whole endeavor.

I believe I’m wearing a yellow sweater with black horizontal stripes that were probably 2-3 inches tall, and probably had a white dress shirt underneath the sweater since there was a white collar popping out and folded around my neck. I’m also wearing basic blue jeans, and probably brown lace-less shoes as well.

I’m inside a classroom, and it seems there’s going to be quite some time before class starts, and I’m sitting down by a large rectangular desk that seems to be formatted like a mini Ping-Pong table, but there was a few items that cluttered the area. I challenged someone to play Ping-Pong, and I believe he looked like a classmate I had for Geography Pre-AP/K-level in High School; let’s nickname him “S.”
“S” accepts the challenge, but we have to clean the table first. I’m frantically trying to remove anything on the table, even if it’s just thrown to the floor. From black backpacks to binders and other small items, we managed to clear the table. Then the next thing was to find some paddles and a few Ping-Pong balls, and as I’m turning to the right side of what’s behind me, I find some paddles and a few Ping-Pong balls near me. I think the balls were levitating, conveniently within my reach, and the same probably goes for the paddles as well.

I never bothered to question the logic of how they just somehow magically appeared, I just had an insane urge to play Ping-Pong. Unfortunately, just as I was about to initiate a game, it seems an individual that looks like a teacher for the class intervenes, and we immediately stopped what we were doing.

Parody About a Commander (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I’m inside a house that’s similar to one I’ve been in waking life, and this dream was probably correlated with the one with Lucy Liu. For some reason, the landlords who were Asian in waking life just seemed coincidental that I would be in this particular house, and have the other dream come at some point.

I can see the house in full detail, and had a little trouble at times distinguishing if this really is a dream, or waking life. I start getting weird moments where I’m in a different environment talking to a girl wearing a red shirt, and blue jeans. She’s wearing glasses, has blonde hair, and looks a lot like one of the workers I used to interact with. Then I see a 3D model of some old man wearing your generic commander uniform, and he looks a bit like George W. Bush in some way.

There’s some text scrolling down, and it was some kind of parody for someone, most likely the commander in the still image that the text was on top of. Even though I can’t recall the text word for word, I do know it was very funny to me.

Trying to Give Lucy Liu the World (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I’m watching two people swimming underwater, and they seem to be looking for something under the massive pile of debris. I seem to have mostly viewed this dream in a spectator point of view through first person perspective looking at two people interacting with each other.

Sometimes I feel as if there’s a fluctuation in one of the dream character’s form: It’s either the form of Slade from Teen Titans, or myself wearing a red long sleeved shirt with khaki pants.

The other individual looks like Lucy Liu with her hair tied back, and the male is following her, I guess. There’s not much going on other than them continuing to swim, but then there’s a moment where the male tries to go up to the lady, braces his chest against her back, and starts hugging her while declaring:

“I can give you the world.”

She gets herself away from him, and they both continue swimming. I believe at this point, or maybe throughout the dream, I started to crack bad jokes at this Lucy Liu dream character, and I had a strange feeling that I did it to cope with the possibility that we may very well be the only people in existence within the dream; kind of like a post-apocalyptic implication, I guess.

Brakes Don't Work, Met a Dinosaur, High School Pep Rally (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I’m driving around, and things seem to go just fine for a bit. The usual traffic, stopping and going. Then after a while, I have trouble trying to use the brakes, and I already seemed to have past two red traffic lights. I noticed that there were a few police vehicles dormant in random areas, almost as if they’re trying to meet their quota or something.

However, despite of being close to them, they didn’t use their sirens at all. Maybe how I perceived what should’ve been a sensation of a vehicle stopping via brakes was messed up, or the cars themselves didn’t really have anyone inside to try and get me for driving past several red traffic lights. The environment seemed to be a fairly dark afternoon, with the clouds covering whatever bright lighting there is above.

I decided to let go of the gas pedal, and just do whatever was necessary to avoid colliding with other vehicles, which wasn’t a problem at all. I stopped, got out of the vehicle, and the dream seems to have shifted to where I’m not inside a fairly enclosed hallway. It feels like walking through a museum that’s trying to emulate a tropical rainforest setting.

I see there’s some people looking around, gazing at whatever features this section has. I noticed there’s a huge, and live dinosaur to the right of me. I was shocked for a few seconds, only to have the feeling subside when people seem to be petting it as if it’s no harm at all. It had light brown skin, and seemed to be very long laterally. It had a weird head shape, and I can’t remember the specific name of this kind of dinosaur.

After passing through this section, I go through an open door with a bright white light, and I’m shifted into an environment that looks like a High School pep rally. I look for some seats by the bleachers inside, and I felt apathetic about being here in the first place. Everything just seemed so pretentious, just like how most pep rallies were conceptualized to me in school in general.

I can’t really recall what happens next, and I don’t really mind not knowing.

Writing a title for someone (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Too lazy to elaborate on this dream:
>Sitting down at a higher section of a school building
>Someone tells me I don’t have a title for something
>They request I come up with a title for them
>”Avalanche” “Raging” and some other words I somehow tried to intertwine are used

Navigating Faron Woods with someone (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I’m in an environment that resembles Faron Woods in TLOZ: Twilight Princess, most specifically the area where Wolf Link and Midna go inside the house where the guy who sells lamp oil resides (except the dream wasn’t the dark, twilight version of the area).

There’s someone that seems to pitch in my navigation through these woods, and it seems he materializes himself somehow, or just came out of nowhere from mid-air, and lands on the floor. He’s wearing a dark gray shirt along with a light gray hoodie, and faded black jeans that has a few chalky areas. He’s has a light brown complexion, and he seems like he knows where we, or at least he needs to go.

Looking for Phil from Hey Arnold (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I’m looking at a series of buildings, and I presume the environment has a New York City kind of setting to it. I see a vehicle pass by, and immediately stops at a building that seems to be open. There’s a sepia tone overlay in the dream in the initial stages until there’s a dream shift.

I’m looking at things from first person perspective, and I’m walking with a female that’s my relative in waking life. This looks like a store that sells all sorts of things, and the overall color scheme is kind of dull, and doesn’t really highlight any major features of the store. It seems kind of run down in a few areas, and before we turn right, I glanced over to the area in front of me that looks like where the cashier would be located.

I see a few items that are levitating, and the first one that attracts me is one that looks like a vanilla milkshake with cherry on top. I believe the female relative was discussing something with me, but I didn’t bother to pay too much attention to her, or maybe what she declared was to prompt me to go to another area of the store.

We navigating through the area, and I noticed several dream characters that looked like individuals in waking life where I worked. One was a Hispanic man with a black mustache wearing a hair net, and he seems to be operating near a seafood section. The flooring seems to have some subtle leaks of water, and other unknown liquids as well, and there’s pipes that seem to be disconnected, and very loose as well.

It seems our objective is to find if Phil from Hey Arnold! is still operating this store. I seem to be really into this occurring, and continued to watch the mental projection of myself searching for this individual.

Our trip abruptly is finished when the female relative told me that he doesn’t seem to be here at all, and even added that he probably died.
