So a few nights ago i sort if had a lucid dream... sort of. I reality checked and discovered i was dreaming but the dream was not vivid and it felt as if i were dreaming about becoming lucid. and before you say I was having a layer 0 lucid dream I can assure you that i wasn't because I was fully aware that I was dreaming and I had partial control over the dream but it was so unvivid and i had very little recall upon waking up.

had a dream mom got a chupacabra... i worked at a store like luckys... maggie evijan were all there oh and jordan n em... evijan touched me n i was like no. chupacabra kind of hated me n bit me a lot. but then we lost it at one point in bed... i realized it was snuggling right between my legs. it was tryna freak me out. it was pretty cute tho. i took lots of instagram pics bc it was so unique... we were on our way to some weird festival like EDC... i saw some ppl there, it was just chaotic. the festival was at the intersection where i had my car crash...

I am in a small commercial jet plane, with members of my family, and we are flying over norfolk, from west to east. It is a lovely summers day as we fly low over the shoreline.

I don't see any Seals in the water but i turn to my niece Nelly and say "look out for the Seals" at which point the sea then gets the occasional Dog swimming in it, sometimes with its owners, often without.

I then spot a hippopotamus in the water, then another, and another, of which i point out to my niece again. And then all of a sudden we see Polar Bears in the shallows, white to begin with, but then the colour degenerates to a dirty brown colour, but there are quite a few Polar Bears in the water.

Suddenly my niece shouts "look, Pigs!" and sure enough, in the shallows are pigs wallowing in the sea water, several of them. And their all dark brown pigs.

The place suddenly begins to bank left and plunges down towards the sea, but narrowly missing it as the plane rears back up again. As this happened i could feel my stomach being pulled backwards, like it does on a rollercoaster or, quite fittingly, on a place which is pulling some trick moves in mid air, the acceleration seemed tremendous.

I then wake up, no recollection at all, then halfway to walking to the bathroom this plane dream came flooding back to me, and shortly afterwards when i sat on my bed i breifly recallled another dream, less intense but still interesting to a degree.

It appears i am in Norwich on a shopping trip, nowt unusual, happens all the time.

Wherever i am i have a very good vantage point of the city, i can see over it for miles, but one building really stands out, a massive abstractly coloured red and black building, which is apparently TK Maxx, and for some reason i want to go there but i am unsure which roads to take. I can see quite a few roads leading off into teh distance but i am very unsure which one to take, but internally i decide to use my iphones satnav to guide me.

Interesting I say? well yes, because it appears i am viewing this dream through some kind of Instagram filter, X-Pro, giving my dream the feel of a cross processed look, which used to be a photography thing back in the day of 35mm film, we processed c41 film in E-6 chemicals, or vice versa, to make the colours a bit more funkier, now all you need to do to get that look is swipe a touchscreen on a mobile phone.

Interested if anyone else experiences colour shifts in dreams, this happens a fair bit to me, i sometimes even see monochrome in my colour dreams. As a side note, i have had a camera in my hand since the 80s so maybe thats why i dream like this?

Oh, and i never have and never will shop in tk maxx, i just dont like their stores, too cluttered and confusing.

1st part of dream i was at a resteraunt with daniel and my dad and damien. we had jus gotten of this pier where large waves were crashing in.

later in dream kyle told me we had a rugby game at 3 pm. then i waited a few hours for some reason, i guess i wanted jerry to go or something and by the time we got there i was with izayah and my family. i took some pig piece of this chew in my mouth adn walked onto the field realizing my game was long over. so we watched other people play and at hjalf time i ran out and played bsketball

i remember a b player complaining coach is making all the inexperienced player work on tackeling against other teams and stuff
the coach asked d o yo u think thats a bad thing
je was like nooo

I'm with my dog to the usual butcher's shop, buying the usual 5 kg of chicken.
As usual they ask me if I eat all of that chicken and I answer that it is for my dog who is intolerant to meat except for chicken.
I pay and, as usual, one of the assistants throws a piece of BEEF to my dog, who invariably swallows and I'm sure she will vomit everything in some hours!!
Of course I'm grateful they love my dog and always give her some delicacies, but for God's sake, I'm telling you that she is allergic and you give her that beef meat??
I woke up and I smile, as my dog is dead and I'm always happy when I can live some moment with her.
I'm in my bed thinking to have dreamed about my dog, but it's late and I need to prepare for work.
I have a breakfast and I go to my old job. I'm preparing documents for a visa.
I work all the day (the dream was long and boring), when it's almost time to go home, my boss comes and says we need to do a little job. It will take a little time, he says, but every time he says it, we are going to stay at least two hours, and they won't pay me for the overtime!
I'm angry but I keep working and I think it was better the dream about my dog and THEN I wake up!!

I'm at work (I work in a kindergarten). The gate between the playground and the road is open, and I can't seem to close it or stop the children from running out and across the road where there parents are congregated (children in danger = dream sign). There is a lot of commotion, apparently two of the children have got a new sibling and the parents have brought them along. I start getting confused, because only one mother that I know of is due to have a new baby. Suddenly one of the newborns comes walking towards me. I get even more confused, as newborns generally don't walk. As the straw to break the camel's back the parents now start dancing down the road - bollywood style! "This is crazy" I think, "I'm definitely dreaming!"
At this point I think I am lucid. The dream is fuzzy and the people look transluctant. I try to stabilize by kneeling down and touching the asphalt. It is warm from the sun and feels real. The dream comes into focus a little more, but is still fuzzy. I try to will the dancing parents away, but am unsuccesful. I turn around, try again, and when I turn back only one parent is left. I decide to be satisfied and start to think of what to do. I remember one member on DV who wrote about the Task of the Year Challenge, specifically Jack and the Beanstalk. I see a fuzzy male DC on the road and decide to transform him into a seed for the beanstalk. I compress him with my hands, and eventually he turns into a little pill-like brown seed. At this point I realise that trying to finish this challenge is overly ambitious. Instead I remember the Easter Egg challenge from TotM, and set out to look for one in the gardens at the side of the road. Frustratingly, every time I near a bush or flower bed they disapear! I see a lot of christmas decorations for some reason. Finally I spot a big cardboard egg, which I open. Inside there is a lot of tiny candy and half of a smaller cardboard egg. I get greedy, and go to look for more eggs! I suddenly lose vision. I know I'm about to wake up, and I do.




I'm not actually sure if this was a lucid dream. It occured very late in the morning, long past the time I usually wake up if I'm working. It kind of had the feel of one of those semi-dreams I sometimes have after waking up if I consciously try to make a fantasy story into a dream (which never succeeds). If it indeed was such a fantasy, it was very vivid and there was vision, which is unusual.

Tunnel trouble
I'm driving at night behind a relatively slow-moving truck. As we enter a tunnel, we're forced into the right lane due to construction in the left lane. A police officer in a light-colored wide-brimmed hat is walking on the left of the lane, next to the construction; I guess he's making sure people don't hit it. Now I'm in the middle of the tunnel. It's pitch-black, and I can't see a thing (oddly, I can't see the headlights or tail lights of any cars around me). I try all the knobs and levers around the steering wheel, but nothing helps. I'm in my wife's van, so I'm not surprised by the momentary lapse, but it still makes me very nervous: I don't want to run into the truck in front of me (I never think about the tunnel walls). I pull on the lever I know is the brights control, but still nothing happens. I see a flash of blue light in my rear-view mirror, but the curves of the tunnel quickly hid it. We finally come out and I can see again, though dimly, from headlights and brake lights of other cars. A few moments later the police car pops out of the tunnel with his lights flashing. I make one more effort to get my own lights on, but nothing works. He comes up right behind me, and I resign myself to being pulled over. I look for a good spot, but we're on a fairly narrow road with no shoulder at all, so I just slow down, put on my blinker, and hope he doesn't get mad with me.


Mom's purse
I'm at home (a childhood home) in the dining room on the top floor. I look out the sliding glass door and see my "wife's purse" on the ground below. I ask her about it, and she says it's not hers, it's my Mom's. She'd put it there so we'd remember to return it when we saw my parents earlier, but then plans changed and they didn't come over. She then asks me how flexible my schedule is today, and whether it would work to have my parents over in the middle of the day for whatever it was she had planned. I remind her of my mid-afternoon doctor's appointment, but she's not worried, saying her thing will be over before then.


Best bubble-wrap ever
I'm in a gigantic room with only a few people and some scattered sofas and large planters. It's pretty bright. In one corner is someone I need to talk to to get something. I walk over and find her standing on a rug with a couple of nice sofas making a privacy barrier towards the rest of the room. I talk to her about whatever it is. Now I'm at home opening a package. The package isn't all that large, but the sheets of bubble-wrap coming out of it are amazing. Each bubble is head-sized, and it's a whole sheet of the stuff. I proclaim that this is the best bubble-wrap ever! Unfortunately, I'm not the one opening it; and whoever is opening it (female) is using a knife to slit the bubbles instead of popping them. I'm quite disappointed.


Another convenience store
I'm with Peter at a gas station convenience store. I'm talking to somebody (on the phone?), trying to give directions. Now we're walking across the parking lot towards our car. The lot is a big one, and hardly any cars are here. Now we're driving on an off-ramp. To my right is a sheer incline that's been reinforced; at the top of it I see the gas station parking lot. The Interstate is down a slope to my left, and we're approaching a road.

ugghhhh I finally managed to figure out how to get some sleep... I was somehow becoming convinced that actually getting deep, restful sleep was impossible, or that I needed to do something strange and bizarrely specific like only blanket my midriff and leave my legs/upper torso exposed, or idk it was very strange. Finally I started forcing myself to remember that falling asleep is not some kind of voodoo magic, which was apparently all I needed to get SOME sleep, though probably not enough. I'll sleep more after this.

buuuuuuut I had another lucid dream which is strange. no idea why being sick is making me a natural lucid dreamer for now. tbh i just have no idea what's going on and I wanna stop being sick so I can think clearly again :U

Lucid #10 - Lucid Roaming
so the dream started off with Mom and Ben and I going to some homeschooling thing in some mother's basement. thinking on it now, it was a lot like another dream I've had; sort of nostalgic. first we were walking along this forest road, then we got to the lady's house and headed into the basement, and saw how she had two kitchens (one on the first floor and one in the basement) and some dogs and junk.

We sat down on a couch in the basement, facing the kitchen, and I started wanting to talk and Ben started shushing me. This happened two or three times; I had the feeling I was definitely being the one in the wrong, and Ben was being the responsible one, but it still irked me enough that I got up off the couch and left. Seconds later, it became apparent that this was a dream, and I left the house feeling a sort of joyful mix of apology towards Ben for being so hard to handle, and un-repentance, since having a lucid dream was much more important.

I tried to remember what it was I wanted to do in a dream, and recalled that I wanted to try out a more efficient flying technique than repeated flapping. But I couldn't quite remember what technique I wanted to use instead and lifted into the air IronMan style, not realizing I was using the wrong technique. But it was still a lot of fun.

I started wandering, looking for something interesting, and came across a large house. It had an exposed second floor with baddies in it, and I spent some time trying to summon a gun, but my hand remained empty. Nevertheless, I flew up and attacked the three of em. I ended up pinning down this one punk girl and bein' kind of a creeper. Huh.

NOTES:

Had an interesting dream this afternoon after drinking a cup of coffee (instant cappuccino). I went to sleep meditating — focusing on breathing, but I let the playlist continue. I did not expect it will loop, so when I woke up hearing it, I just flowed into meditating again.
I set the alarm for 1 hour and 50 minutes. 90 minutes (1.5 hours) for the REM cycle, 14 minutes for the time it takes to fall asleep, and 6 minutes to set up the meditation sound, adjust bed, whatever.

DREAM:

I dreamed I was in a mental asylum for gifted children. I saw an adult patient trying to choke another with a pillow. It was dark or shadowy. Not night, but it's like the blinds are down. "I" ran, I think trying to escape.

I ended up in something like World of Warcraft location, facing a crossroad where skeletal beings and wraiths go back and forth on the road that goes towards and away from me, while on the road crossing it are cars speeding from right to left, seemingly unaware of the creatures. There's a hut a little to my right with some people in it. Once in a while, one creature would walk almost right to the hut, but only stay outside the window.

I climbed on the roof and watched while a couple of creatures attacked, telling one person/kid on the ground to go around the hut, not realizing until then that there were two creatures attacking.

We climbed up the building nearby with exterior ladders and ended up in a large dorm room for the gifted. "I" (because it's more like I was looking through the kid's eyes) tried talking to them that night when they're asleep because I was too shy.

We "escaped". It seems like it was an experiment, and the guy who tried to kill another was an actor. I met him outside the "walls" but I still felt the shock. I moved on eventually, with me and a friend taking a huge 10-wheeler-like truck, but with 4 huge tires (reaches up to the roof of the truck) instead of 10 small tires. We crossed a bridge.

Just forget it. Sleep will never be an option for me, so there's no point in keeping a dream journal.

Relic bats and horses (dislike horses) are telling me about a music festival......im there, music is everyware but im struggling to hear it.
im told to find your own music and theme.......everyone must WORK down the tunnel themselves to find their own ways.....


Ive started taking some B6 and MELATONIN

dreams are still short as is recall but details are starting to be more precise,im starting to remember facial details etc

It's the big day. I'm marrying friend B's sister H today. A bunch of people stayed over at my parent's house last night, including most of her and my families. This morning I'm putting on my tux in the downstairs half bathroom. I'm trying to straighten my tie and attach some kind of self-tightening battery thing around my neck at the same time, but I end up loosening one as I tighten the other. Around my waist I've got a sash thing that has carrots and tomatoes in it. Finally I decide I look presentable enough and walk out to the kitchen. I wave to all of the family people sitting in the living room and thank them for coming. My mother and several others are cooking breakfast in the kitchen, and I decide to give them the carrots but not the tomatoes.

Now I'm at the climbing gym where the wedding is going to be. It's the climbing gym I always go to IRL, but the layout is completely wrong. I avoid the seating area where all the final preparations are occurring and instead walk around near the wall. A mother is teaching her son how to use an autobelay. I decide to go around them and go into the bathroom. The urinal is 5 feet wide and has an opening that goes through the wall into the loading dock area. When I come out, B is standing nearby holding a clipboard. He asks me if I want to help save the arcade cabinet games section, and I can't tell if he's joking or not. I reply that no, I'm going to go marry his sister instead. He just stares blankly at me.

I cannot believe it: a second lucid in one night! However this one was embarrassing and gross. My awareness and control were low.

I was in a hotel room with coworkers, and one of my coworkers was lounging on a bed with me - yikes. My boss was saying how he now gets 2 weeks off because of Obama, and while it does not apply to us contractors yet, but the rule may change, and we may even get all of December off.

Suddenly I realized I had made number two in my pants earlier without realizing it. And then I farted vehemently. Then farted a second time. Thoroughly embarrassed, I appologized to my coworker without looking at him. I thought "This can't be happening!" And that's when I realized that thankfully this is a dream.

However my awareness was so low that I still thought I had to dispose of my number two in a bathroom somewhere before doing anything else in this dream. I had wrapped it in a napkin. Luckily it was small and dry.

I thought, since this is a dream, I just need to walk into any door and expect there to be a bathroom on the other side. I picked a swinging door that was like a closet door sort of. It swung inward to reveal another door. And then another. An endless set of doors. I was a few doors in when I realized it was just door after door, so I turned around but even in the other direction it was just door after door. Luckily, I remembered that it is a dream, so I went into fast forward speed and quickly went through all the doors to escape this place.

I was in a resort of sort, still looking for the bathroom to dispose of my awkward package. The next door was labeled Gasthoff in German for a hotel with restaurant. I did not want to go into the restaurant for some reason (low awareness). I overheard someone say that there used to be more people in this resort but they disappeared under mysterious circumstances.

I decided to get out of here, and finally decided to fly. I was flying over the pool, when I realized I still was holding my package, and since this was a dream and no consequences and I really should not be carrying this around in a lucid dream, I just let it go. I listened for it and heard the sploosh as it went into the pool. It was a much bigger sploosh than a small package like this should cause. I was embarrassed again. The pool made me want to swim, so I swam in the air above the pool, but then thought that even though I had thrown it into the pool this was the air above the pool and thus still contaminated by association.

I woke up soon after, and realized that this was barely a lucid given how low my awareness was that I could not even make it pleasant and stuck to the gross theme.

The main redeeming factor of this lucid was the fast forward speed to escape the endless doors płace.

Wow, this was a long lucid dream. Unfortunately my dream recall is not the best right now, and I know I forgot a lot of this dream, including how it started. I do not remember how I became lucid. It was definitely a DILD not a WILD though, and a WBTB because I got up and drank a milk at night.

What I do remember:

I remember at some point while lucid remembering that I should fly and so I from that point on went everywhere by flying, not far off the ground by flying nonetheless.

I rember being indoors and wanting to go outdoors and there was a large balcony window and it was closed, and I decided to go through the solid glass with my eyes open. The sensation is hard to describe: kind of like passing through water but totally different, perhaps more like molted plastic but room temperature but not sticky?

Outside I was with my older son and I was telling him this is a dream, but could not get him excited or doing anything.

I remembered two of my goals: my goal to make chocolate appear in my pocket and taste it, and my goal to go to the Taj Mahal. I did not pursue the Taj Mahal out of some reason. I checked my pocket for chocolate, but it was not there! My pocket was empty. I tried to imagine I was eating a non-existant chocolate anyway, but failed to convince myself.

I tried to recall the DV tasks of the month, but all I recalled was that one of them was Easter related somehow, but did not recall more.

I remember I a couple of times at least almost lost lucidity or briefly lost it. Once I found myself washing dishes, but then remembered it is a dream, so why am I doing dishes? Then at another time I think I had a false awakening: I was in bed, but then realized I was still dreaming an levitated.

I remember at some point trying to operate or look at my iPhone, but all it did was emit a slightly ominous sound and show what looked like a heartbeat or something. I but it down face down to not look at it anymore.

I also recall at some point being bothered by not enough vividness, and saying "Clarity now!" Out loud. And one of my eye's vision got more vivid, but not the other one yet. So I wiped my other eye, and that cleared my vision to very vivid, but only briefly - most of this dream was only so so vividness.

I also remember a part of my dream where I was exploring my dream home while holding my younger son while I was flying. He was about doll sized and only marginally more interactive than a doll though. I tried to get his interest in stuff. Among other things my dream home had this gorgeous grandfather clock that I got over to for us to check out, and parts of it seemed to be made of gold. In general my home was nothing like my real home.

I also do not quite remember what happened just before I woke up, and I have the feeling my husband and perhaps my parents may have been in this dream at some point, but not sure. In general this dream seemed to go on for a very long time, and I was lucid for much/most of it. I remember worrying inside the dream already that I might not manage to recall all of it upon waking up!

My favorite part was flying through the solid glass. Oh and I think but not sure that I actually did that another time later in the dream because I liked it so much.

I am surprised that I had this lucid now. I have not been good at reality checking, my awareness and recall have been low, my memory is not good now. And still a lucid! I'll take it. So glad to have one, and to not just wake up right away as well. Yay

I'm standing what seems dead center of this endless crowd. I see an old Victorian looking street lamp about 5 feet to the left of me possibly indicating I'm near a side walk. There's just too many people to tell. I see this girl walking through the crowd, when she makes eye contact with me she gets this look of fear or worry in her eyes, then puts her head down and tries to hurry past me. Seeing this, I become paranoid. I wonder why she reacted this way to me, I become compelled and consumed into her and what she's thinking that I whip around to see how far she's passed me and I chase after her. She only runs a little ways, more like speed walks with a slouch. I grab her shoulders then tell her I'm going to take her some where tranquil so I can ask her why she seemed to fear me, but then all of the entire surrounding crowd becomes overwhelmingly quiet and focus their attention on me with anger and suspicion. I know, I can feel it that they think I'm kidnapping her, so I tell them "I'm not going to trapezoid her in a prism", and then the entire crowd makes noises of disappointment, like a boxing match without a knockout. I was some what disappointed that that was all it took to get a crowd to submit. Then I woke up.
