All DJ Entries

I was naughty and went to bed at 3am because I knew I could sleep in forever, so I really didn't deserve these 2 LDs, but here they are anyway

I WILDed probably around 8am. After the vibrations settled, I opened my eyes and was in my room and in bed, per pretty usual. I fought with many layers of blankets and finally got up, but then I woke up. I went back to sleep and ended up in a nonlucid in a grocery store. I was walking down the frozen aisle, when it hit me that I was JUST awake a few moments ago in my bed, trying to lucid dream. BOOM! I remembered the basic I task right away, so I looked for a dream character. My mom was in the frozen aisle too, looking through some frozen items. I said "Mom?" and she looked at me. "Can I have one of my Christmas presents early this year?" She said "Ok" as she started pushing her cart towards one of the registers. When we got in line, there were some floral arrangements on one of the endcaps. She picked one and gave it to me. It was a small, thin glass vase with 4 orchid blossoms in it. They were the most intense, hypercolored purple I'd ever seen. I said "Wow, thank you mom!!" And I was fiddling with them, kinda rearranging them. As I did that, 2 yellow gerbera daisies also appeared in the vase, then 3 roses too. I'm glad that happened, because it kinda snapped me back into the fact that I was dreaming, so I could do another task. I said "Ok by mom, I gotta go do some stuff," and I just set the vase in her cart.

When I got outside, it had snowed everywhere. ANd it looked like a tiny town in Montana or something, with mountains everywhere and everyone dressed like they were going to go ski. I took to flight, and just swam in the air. I tried to think of another task, and all I could think of was the snowman one (and how I kinda didn't really want to do it). As I was in the air, I saw AND heard wolves and bears in the mountains. I thought how much I really wanted to fly there and either battle or befriend them (wolf task HELLOOOOO... oh well). I promised myself I would after the task. I landed on a nice pile of snow across the street from the grocery store. It didn't seem like enough snow, so I willed it to snow (a skill I acquired from one of last year's tasks ). After a few inches accumulated, I got straight on my knees and started trying to form the traditional snowman from 2 big balls of snow. But they would morph a bit while I was making them, and the falling snow kept accumulating around him, basically forming him back into a big amorphic snow pile. I decided to go with it, and instead of sculpting a snowman, I decided to carve him out of the giant snow pile. I made him look a little cubic, with a weird mouth. Kind of like a cross between a robot and an Aztec god. I wasn't even using my hands, I just willed chunks of snow to fall away, leaving the relief of a snow-robot, partially embedded in the drift. I said "Ok, WALK," and when I did, he stepped out of the drift, and marched kinda robot soldier style. At this point, he wasn't even snow anymore, it was pure, clear ice somehow. Probably because I felt a bit like I was doing an ice sculpture rather than snow molding, if that makes any sense. Satisfied with my marching iceman, I thought about heading for the woods, but then I woke up.

earlier i drempt i was at damiens and i was brushing my teeth. as i was brushing i thought about nat and started crying. damien asked whhy and i explained in a roundabout way my sadness. he said lets go to get coffee
next thing i no

i dreampt i was at some hotel with damien and him and were sharing a room. he took off and i started wandering around. some girl asked if i wanted a hand job i was like sure. then we went back to my hotel room, and we started feeling on each other in the room. the girl had somehow transformed into natalie and i asked if she would be down to have sex and she was like yeah

the sex was not vivid so i don't really member if we did or not

than i was later in some random game of like paintball or some sort of competition and later went to the movie with some of the winners. i was eating this delicious candy and emmet kept asking for more and i shouted in the theater "no!! its my last one"

If only I had the same motivation to DJ - and even LD - in the morning, as I have it later in the day..
Didn´t dictate anything - and so there are again only fragments..


One had me with backpain - and getting an x-ray at a hospital, which showed, that I had an implant - a fixateur interne - like if I had broken a vertebra:



We were wondering, how it got there - me having no memory of such a surgery.


Another one was about me looking for a job, and wondering, if I had to take one of the earlier university exams once more.
It seemed I had to - and I was almost completely clueless, how to prepare for that in the short time, which was available.
Funnily - there were classmates from school, who also had to take this exam..
But I managed to organize the books, I had used back then - and made myself a learning-place in our old house´s garden - with sun-umbrella, table, stool and heaps of books and started learning.
But I felt, I couldn´t understand most of it - and got worried about the job.


Another fragment had me searching for my shoes in a school-locker - there were lots of other people´s shoes in it - but not mine.
In every locker there were heaps of shoes - in the end I found one pair of mine, and took another one, which I liked...


And for the third time - I was at the house of another ex (not the one from the last two dream instances - where I wanted him back in the first - and got him back in the second one).
Like irl - we were just normal friends at that point in the dream.
His mother - bit of a bitchy person - was happy we had broken up (irl as well..) - and didn´t like it at all, that I was there in this dream.
Problematic was - I was seemingly going there as a sort of first shelter and place to get a shower and fresh clothes.
How it came, that I arrived totally freezing cold and almost naked in the winter - no idea.
I got myself sorted there anyway - small brother of my ex - and him - standing up for me.
We didn´t exactly get along perfectly back then - I remember being surprised about this brother´s support.
And - however this came to pass in the end: I got cookies and cake baked by this suddenly rather friendly mother - but she still was happy to see me getting out afterwards.


This has again:
School-mates
Exam
Old house of my youth - esp. garden
Shoes.. (?)
Taking something from somebody else
Searching/sorting stuff
Being freezing cold - and not enough clothes (just a sort of small blanket in this case..)
An ex of mine
This special ex´s parent´s house and being threatened to get thrown out.
Last two times I did get thrown out with the x-mas party first - and last time with my grandparents and their friends.

Seemingly again dreaming something once more, but with a more favourable course of events and outcome.

Being given a cat
I'm in my car, using my BlueTooth headset on a call with Mom and someone. I leave the car and start to walk towards the church. Now I'm in church. I realize that as I was walking in, I absentmindedly took the headset out of my ear, so there was a good minute of conversation I missed. I look at something on my tablet. There are tables scattered around the room; it looks like they're setting up for potluck. I happen to look at the plates, and see that instead of our usual divided styrofoam plates they ended up with paper plates with flower designs.

Now I'm looking at a nearby coat rack. It's low, at least as low as clothing racks in a store. Many oddly-colored suit jackets are hung on it. Now I'm standing with my friend PS in front of a large open cabinet near the coat rack. He's going to be giving me his cat along with supplies to care for it. Included in the list of supplies is a cricket box along with a few spare crickets. I've never heard of letting a cat play with a cricket in a box, but I'll be interested to see how it works out. Another item in the cabinet looks like a small fan with a plug jutting straight out of it. Somehow, it's supposed to help cats. I have a moment of confusion - how would that be useful for anything? - but then I remember that I'd seen these a while back and had really wanted one. I remember reading about someone decyphering the protocol using an HTTPS sniffer. It turns out they can scan a whole network using SNMP and report on the names and health of all the attached computers.

Now I'm near the cabinet, but we're outside looking over a railing. We seem to be on a deck raised a few feet off the ground, with a foot or two of water beneath us in some sort of ornamental pond. A dog has chased PS's cat into the water and is now holding it down. I'm concerned it's going to drown the cat, but as I'm about to jump over the railing to save the cat, the dog relents and helps the cat get to the edge of the pond.

Now I'm in a nearby room, using what looks like a tall, thin ATM; but it deals with some kind of artificial currently, not real money. As I start to use the machine, Mom goes into a nearby store, where I'll meet her after I'm done. PS has given me his card, and I use it to get money out of the machine. I don't think he has much on there, so I tell it to withdraw everything. It starts spitting a huge quantity of strange-looking coins into a hopper on the front. I realize I should have checked the balance before getting everything out. I decide to deposit most of the coins back into the machine, but I realize I don't know how. I have a second card used for deposits, but it's half the size of the normal card and has strange markings on the top. I realize a line has formed behind me, and I don't want to delay them any longer, so I dump all the coins into a Ziploc bag and go on my way. The man behind me in line thanks me for my consideration. I decide to go by my car first and leave half the coins in my backpack.

Camping weirdness
I'm at a camp site, setting up the tent. The footprint of the tent is huge - probably 50' x 50'. Somehow, it's suspended a couple of feet off the ground. I'm on my back under it, working with a very long strap and some shorter Velcro straps. Later, we're shaken because something really bad almost happened to us (no idea what). We'd been planning to pack up and drive to the next campsite, but we decide to stay an extra night here. My wife hopes she'll be able to get to sleep and won't be too bothered by whatever it was.

Now it's morning. The tent is already packed up. All over the ground, I see regular square holes - probably 4" x 4" x 6" - from where the legs of the tent depressed the ground. Now we're driving on a major road. I pull off onto the shoulder, deciding this would be a good place to set up the tent for tonight. Looking behind the car, I see the tent as a large canvas trailer behind us. Looking beyond the tent, I see a car veer off the road heading straight for us, getting back on the road only just in time to not hit us. As soon as he's back on the road, another car does the same thing. I decide this is a terrible place to camp, and we get back on the road. I take a nearby exit, hoping that being away from the road will be a safer place for us to camp. At the end of the exit ramp is a large welcome archway proclaiming that there's plenty of free land nearby. Now my awareness is split: I'm driving the car, excited about the prospect of getting a good camp site for the night; but I'm also watching myself as if in a movie while hearing an ominous voiceover saying that not everything is as it seems, that there's something unnatural about this place.

Dream 1 :[COLOR="#800080"]I run from someone that chases me. I get into a train station and when I try to cross it I see a train(A grey one) that comes. I keep jumping around there and wait for the train to go away.The train comes and it is HUUUUGE. Then an earthquake happens and that's all I remember. [/COLOR]
Dream 2 : [COLOR="#800080"]Something about a girl saying that I don't know what couple took I don't know what pills and that they're working hard to make a baby now.[/COLOR]
Dream 3 : [COLOR="#800080"]Just me getting ready for school. I see new socks in the drawer so I wonder how they got there and then I was like : Probably I bought them yesterday and I forgot.[/COLOR]

I'm sitting on the couch trying to work on my laptop. My little sister is trying to by cute by bonking me on the shoulder with the handle of a hack saw. I try to be calm and tell her I'm not enjoying it. She persists, and I get angry and yell at her, take my laptop and storm off. I almost trip over her infant son on my way through the door into the kitchen. My father is in the kitchen. He's heard the whole thing and tries to tell me that I need to be more calm because my nephew is growing up fast and I need to have a good relationship with him. I don't want to hear it and I start up the stairs to my room.

Getting to my room is tricky. I get to the stop of the second flight of stairs and get to a large window. Outside it's dark and rainy. I have to open the window and step over a gap to get to the room. I do this. No memory of getting wet or the room entry. As I enter my room, I absently try to flip on the switch to listen to some music, but I miss the switch. I look back and get it the second time. I remember "music" but don't recall actually hearing any sound. I put my laptop on my desk and walk around the room.

Now my friend B is here. He and someone else want me to come with them to play around in the university courtyard. Now we're there. I'm in some kind of brick tunnel that runs under one of the campus buildings. I'm walking through it towards the courtyard. I pass by two people in the tunnel. Now I'm in a large loft area with B and someone else. We're talking about what we're going to do in the courtyard. B has a set of stage wires and hooks me into them. I'm not sure how I'm going to control them. I'm back in the courtyard. There's a hill in the middle with a cobblestone sidewalk going all the way around it, joining the tunnel at one side and increasing in elevation on the opposite side. Parts of the hill have a retaining wall between the grass and the cobblestone. No one can see the wires. I'm on the middle of the hill when someone in the tunnel calls to me. I start walking down the hill towards her, and then the wires catch and I pretend to be walking on an invisible platform jutting out of the hill. She's surprised and then we laugh about it. I continue with the wires playfully as she talks. Apparently she was one of the people in the tunnel that I had passed earlier. She's doing a psychology experiment where she films people's reactions when a stranger walks up to you and says... something. We talk briefly about the experiment as we walk around one side of the hill.

Now it's gotten later. We're still talking and seem to have become friends. Other people have gathered around. Apparently there are going to be fireworks. James Marsters is part of our conversation, and perhaps another person. I look up into the sky to see B's face projected there like the Matrix. He asks if I want to come watch The Matrix with them and I say no to the sky. People around chuckle. I ask James if he remembers doing a monologue during Buffy, or actually it was Angel. He was looking down on Angel and random girl Angel had just saved and was making fun of them. James remembers and does an imitation of Angel on the spot.

A young man wanted to get back into boxing, but decided to wait when he found out he would know the people he would fight because he wanted to fight strangers only.

1) in a very cluttered (asian) Indian store. There are many cash registers each with a very dark-skinned Indian (or African perhaps) woman. I'm approaching one register and I realize the woman there is chanting something, I hear it, I do not want her to think that her chant has power over me to bring me to her register to I turn away and head towards another register. At the registers are boxes of shallots and garlic, I go to a closed register (no one is there) against a wall, I pick up 3 big shallots and want to buy them, a woman from another register comes over, I look into her face, and I say "open? Can I buy these here at this register?" I think she probably doesn't understand.

I am aware while waking up, it feels like I'm entering a dream lucidly but instead I'm leaving the dream. If I had stayed asleep I probably would have gotten lucid.

Lots of thoughts about WL stuff interfering with going to sleep. Wife snoring in the morning. No earplugs because my ears are irritated from wearing them all night every night so I'm taking a break from them. Actually slept most of the night fine without them.

1) controlled flying dream. Walking down a wide street, a building about 4 floors high and long like an apt building is on the left, a bunch of people are on the roof. Trees line the street. I want to fly up there, I start flying towards the roof, I'm going slowly, I decide to fly faster, so I do a zoom-move I look at a point on the roof and I imagine my vision zooming in to that place, then I imagine that I'm there, and I'm there up on the roof. There are a lot of young people on the roof. I practice zoom vision on a spot of concrete on the roof, it kind of works.
I'm down on the other side of the building away from the street with a group of people, my older son is there current age, his gf is there, too. We're talking about traditions. There's a certain leaf that when you buy it as gift, it's required that on a certain day you must buy another kind of leaf to go as a tribute to go with the first leaf. My son gave to his gf the first kind of leaf, but didn't give the 2nd time. I'm "tsking" that he did this mistake. He claims that he didn't know. I *know* that I told him specifically about this tradition, but he was not paying attention. There is a VERY loud crack of thunder, we're all started by this. I think this may be punishment from God.
We duck down to the ground, We enter the building, climbing inside, the interior is dark/wet, water dripping everywhere, derelict rooms. A young teenage man is there, he is sitting with his back towards us with water dripping down from the ceiling onto his back, he's wearing a shirt. He's forlornly sitting, I see a glimpse of his face, I think this is the abandoned son of Bill Gates, I think it's very sad.
Back on the first street, I'm with and older man with a young child, I'm leading him down the road and I'm looking at the weather and I'm noticing the storm, we reach an intersection and we turn to the right. We're concerned about the weather so I fly up into the sky, doing a zoom-fly-move to get altitude quickly into the clouds up above, and there I float turning to look in each compass direction. All around are dark grey and stormy clouds except to the East, which is in the direction we're moving in along this street I see light on the horizon. We continue in that direction, the trees are approaching from the left. We enter hills made from rough dirt, the path bends up and to the right, it quickly turns into what I believe is a rich neighborhood fully of movie stars.
I see a black man talking animatedly to a dirty but wealthy man standing in his driveway just off the path, I know the dirty man is Larry David. I tell the guy behind me that this is the neighborhood of rich people where there are all kinds of funny things happening, if you pay attention. This area has very windy roads with tall trees, I think if I have to I will fly up above the trees to get our bearings and I'll be able to continue guiding us.
Going further along the path past the rich homes into the hills, past the Larry David house, I see on the ground by the sidewalk of the next home two small baking dishes with puppies sitting inside (statues?). Seems like an eery joke.
F1) guy entering a virtual reality cage, closing himself inside, he will control something from there.
2) troubled latina teenager girl sitting working as a cashier sitting behind a plain desk outside in a remote neighborhood out in the middle of nowhere theer are a few small houses around, a poor neighborhood. It's nighttime. I talk to her, I ask if the field across the highway is where they shoot their guns, then I imagine that couldn't be true because then the highway patrol would see them.
05:41 BTB
07:09
3) driving on a road, maybe in white honda, driving through the R wilderness on a country road by myself, I see a swamp open body of algae-covered water to the right and I think that's a place I remembered, driving kind of fast, the roads are muddy, I think I should slow down or I'll skid, I make it through without skidding, I think I'm going up to the top of some high place and will stop at a vista point to see the beautiful view, then I decide that's too high/too far to go on my own in this lonely place, I take a small turnoff to the left, the ground there is very muddy but has been groomed to be even, I think I should just return back not even go to the vista point. It's not a good idea to be out in the middle of R alone like this, there are crushed up trees in the muddy ground.
A weird animal, a yellow "Zog" appears in front of me in between my car and the road, it's walking slowly, it looks like a large yellow stick-animal made from huge arm-thick yellow pipe cleaners. Another car drives by at the same time I'm concerned about this other car, I see a building in this area up and to the left.
I'm back on the road returning back the way I came, I'm in my car but I'm also exposed like I'm not in my car, I feel like I'm running away from the Zog, I know I can't outrun it, I imagine the Zog puts its long snout into my face and I bite the end of it with my teeth to discourage it, a hard bite. I think what am I doing I'm in a car so I hit the gas so I accelerate away from it. Someone says that "in a 2-stroke car with you reach (some metric) you can double your power."
4) University football scene. "HIs feet are on the edge!" The wide receiver faked one way then turned another way. He was given the instruction to lose the defender in the crowd. It was a pass touchdown. The QB was a young man with short dirty blond hair plain face, I zoom in on his shirt, he's wearing not a uniform but a bunch of different layered shirts, I try to count how many shirts he's wearing. At least 4 layers. The QB tells coach he must return to campus for (the dentist?) he wants to drink milk. From the point of view of the bottom of a cup I see milk pouring down into the cup, it's like a milk advertisement. The QB is sick of the gatorade at the football field.
09:18
5) pursued by a wolf on EU avenue. It's dark/night, I'm trying to run into my car. I turn to face the wolf at my car, I imagine bringing out a lightsaber and slicing the wolf in half and someone discovering the two parts of the wolf on the street. There is a statement that "in the Soviet Union they were slow but they weren't stupid."
6) Walking along a street in the daytime (GZ Blv?) past rich houses they're holding lounge sales / garden furniture recliners. Some are painted. They're stacked in big piles in the driveways of the houses. Someone has painted a white chair glittery/shiny pink/red.
7) Selling lumber, EmKlg from work is coming and scratching up the wood to discover what kind of wood it is, he decides it's oak, he decides to buy some planks so he marks off the sizes he wants from the huge chunk of wood, then other people appear and also want to buy some planks, I'm getting alot of orders. I'm going to have to get ready for it and cut up all the wood ahead of time.
alot more detail was in there but I was woken unexpected by an alarm.
11:17
8) On UL favorite lake with parents. Someone is canoing right next to us. They're going in circles about to hit another boat with people in it right on the shore. I tell my folks my dad that canoing on the lake is great I'm trying to get him to go, he's concerned about sunburn, put on a sun shirt I tell him, walking around a bit, I think hey is that R island, are there any people camping there? There is a huge tree there very tall, I look up in it and see a tent or some streamers, conclude someone is staying there. Walking further around the shore I see a huge human made structure with large glass walls melding into the rocks, I'm curious about it, I decide it's a conference center that I've "remembered" that they built. There are people standing in the corridors, may be guards. I imagine going up to the walkway, walking into the center, pretending I belong, going down the elevator to the dock where there is a free shuttle boat back to the city.
9) driving through town with some guy in a car. He's a teacher, I'm in the back seat, I'm getting out it's night it's getting late, I have to go to class, I don't know how I'm going to get to class in the other city, I'll have to take a bus but then I don't know how to go where the class it. I think I shouldn't have gotten out of the teacher's car he's probably going to go right to where I need to go. I should have gone there with him. He has a chinese name, I see a subject of a talk something to do with dolls. There's a bus with people driving by, should I get on that bus to get downtown? But then I'd have to pay, and I have no money.
10) I'm riding a metro/subway, I see the stops going by, I get off, I realize I went to the wrong end of the line, I have to go back, but I have absolutely no money not even a coin. I wonder what I'm going to do. I think I may as well look for some lunch, for some tacos. There's a restaurant nearby looking in to see what it is what food is there, I think it is some sort of taco place there is a menu board, the choices are: some sort of taco meat, ground bbq pork, and something else, I put in the order , there are shredded salads / vegetables.

I am also adding in my second dream because I only remember a little of the dream.

The Lucid
I was running inside this hotel area for awhile before I heard my mom's voice, confused I looked around only to find nothing, but after awhile I realized that she was trying to wake my brother up for school so I became lucid from that fact alone. So after becoming lucid I ran around for a bit to be stopped in my tracks
because the dream was fading and then I said out loud "No you don't!" and the dream went back to normal and it happened a few times but I stopped the dream from ending. Before long I was lying in a big pile of trash, I'm pretty sure I fell out of a window to get there, I also felt like I was dying so I thought to myself
"I need a 1-UP." And what do you know a 1-UP falls from the sky and lands in my hand so I quickly ate it,
It tasted like a dense marshmallow and looked like a fat cookie. After eating the 1-UP I promptly got up from the trash and saw Dr.Octopus staring me down like I was his arch-nemeses so we charge to each other and we both fired barrages of attacks, he use his metal arms and I used my tails which I don't know how I got but I was rolling with it, we then traded blows with each other and then he abruptly left and the dream ended.

I guess my lucid was basically an EILD which I didn't plan

The Non-Lucid Fragment
This dream was set in the attack on titan universe and the soldiers were setting up a program which had civilians sub for injured soldiers so I was subbing for this girl named Pampus and it was about time that she should have been all healed up and me and some of the other soldiers were looking for her then all of a my view shifted to where Pampus was and she was eating ice cream with a friend the dream ended immediately after that.

Oh and by the way I'm back to Dreamviews now http://www.dreamviews.com/images/smilies/smiley.gif

hum i just kinda shifted from dream to dream. then i shifted to working in some store at the mall that had those lil waffle things that you made at eggers. i kind was fuken around day 1 just learning to ropes. also it was weird some manager asked one of the employees two coffee, however it was reall clever how he did it.

then later i dreamt i was at a funeral for matt jajeh's dad's mark. i was in like the back row and shelly got up at the end and took donations from everyone but she was like shit and fuck, and then laughed and was like oh can you swear in church? then afterword we had some dummy of marks body and they all took pictures with it. i took it on a really nice camera that my grandpa gave me.

I went to bed late last night and did not remember one single fragment of a dream upon waking up.

I was riding on a school bus with H and maybe C. H had an Ipad or some kind of tablet device and we were watching videos. While the bus was filled with this golden light.
We eventually arrived at the east entrance to my school, by the bus loop, sort of in the back of the school. There was a banner set up and a bunch of people partying, as though we had been gone a long time. There were maybe about a hundred people there.
I got out of the bus, and began enjoying the party. I noticed a lot of people had balloons. Then, out of nowhere, everyone's balloons started popping and people began running and screaming. I noticed there were darts flying through the air from somewhere behind me and breaking up the party.
I looked over my shoulder, and maybe fifty feet behind me was a guy on a machine gun turret, built up on some boxes. But instead of bullets, the gun was firing darts into the crowd. I tried to run toward the guy, but party-goers kept running into me and tripping me up. I tripped over a small child and fell onto the ground. I felt two or three darts hit me in the leg. (ouch.)
I crawled the rest of the way to this guy, then lunged up and tackled him. I must have knocked him out or killed him.
And, because of dream logic, afterwards, everyone just went back to enjoying the party. I overheard some dream character saying that people had brought shotguns to the party.
Someone came up behind me and blasted me with a shotgun. But it was at this point that I learned that this was a weird new kind of pyrotechnic toy that used gunpowder but fired no actual bullets, so when you got shot with it, it would just blast you with air. I don't know exactly how it worked. But it still made a loud noise that scared me.
A mother was watching a pair of very small kids, both of them were carrying these shotguns. They both ran over and blasted me. Agian, it didn't hurt, but the loud noise scared me.
I decided I wanted my own harmless shotgun, so that I could blast some other people. I found a box that was apparently a kit to make one. In fact the box contained dozens of kits inside cardboard tubes. I didn't want to be greedy so I took one cardboard tube and stepped out of the party crowd for a minute while I assembled mine.
It turned out to be very complex. When I opened the tube, there were hundreds of parts including mostly small screws and wires. There was a large flexible computer board with lights on it. The instructions stated that the first part of building your harmless shotgun was to select the color of three different lights on the circuit board. You could pick from five colors. Red,Green,Yellow,Blue, and Brown. I asked a man (Marcus) for help.
He looked at the circuit board and the dream changed from the party outside my school to this very high tech looking reactor room.
The room had a huge glass vial of liquid in the center, surrounded by dark metal supports. On the top and bottom of the room there were jet turbine fans spinning very slowly. The liquid was changing between Red,Green,Yellow,Blue, and Brown. There were four panels on the wall, like vertical plasma screens. Red,Green,Yellow,Blue, and Brown. But they weren't in sync. The vial and the four screens always changed so that every color was always displayed. We were on a catwalk above the lower turbine fan as to not fall in.
(I have to say, it was a cool sci-fi type room.)
Marcus opened a door between two of the plasma screens into another square room. This room also looked very cool and high-tech. We both walked into there. There were dispensers on the wall that dispensed liquids in each of the five colors I mentioned.
Marucs explained that each of the colors represents a different element. Red=Fire, Blue=Water, Green=Earth, Yellow=Air, Brown=Metal. There was a large L-Shaped tank of blue liquid in one corner of the room. He used the dispenser to fill a cup with red liquid and poured it into the tank. For a moment, the liquid in the L shaped tank went red, then changed back to blue.
While he walked over to the dispenser to get some brown liquid, he explained that mixing two of the elements creates an inert and largely useless mixture. But it's when you mix three that things start to get interesting.
He poured some brown liquid into the tank, and glass dividers came up dividing the tank into three sections, kindof like this. (Dividers in blue.)

Each portion of the tank drained of liquid, to reveal they had become something different. One became a sort of desert area with these light green spiky plants. Another became a crystal garden with green crystals growing out of dark grey. I forget the contents of the third tank. It may have been a clear quartz crystal garden.
The tank lifted up and separated each of the divided parts into a display case parts. Marcus was trying to convince me of how amazing it was when you mixed three of these elements, the possibility were almost limitless. I found it hard to be interested because the crystal garden looked dirty and fake.
I actually became mildly lucid at this point, but I'm just going to say I was non-lucid. I was looking at the crystals and thinking about how these crystals looked so ugly... This seems like something I would dream about...
Nope, I'm awake.

running with knives

I don't know where I am. Hiding in a bush.

Someone tosses me two knives. Silver. Sharp. Curved, for killing.



Execution he whispers. I peer from my bush. Everyone has knives. Knives 3 feet long, metallic swords for battle. Not for battle. For death. Knives for only one purpose.

I look at the two knives in my hand - I see I am at a disadvantage. My knives are only the size of butcher knives. Sinisterly curved and sharp. The curvature beckons me to fight, I resist.

He looks back down at me. You must flee before you're found, he says. I look up from my bush at their knives. They wave them around fast like ceiling fans. Spinning and chopping. Whirring and buzzing. Aerodynamic.

I spring from my bush and run past the executioners with knives. I run through the town, the knives in my own hands zipping through the air, begging to puncture skin. I'm no longer running from the executioners, but from myself. The knives pleading.

I run into a tattoo parlor. A man stands up, smiles, and says, "you, the girl with knives."

12/04/13 I really did have a fully non-lucid and was shocked. I have really had basically no bad dreams in years, due to always being semi-lucid. This was very uncomfortable. I am in a house and my sister is telling my wife about things that make me so angry. The things she is talking about did happen to my father and his sister, but in the dream they happened to us, and I want it kept a secret. My father had kept it secret his whole life, and his sister just recently told my sister the details. I got so angry that I told my sister I would beat her up if she were a man. My wife said what happened to me as a child did not in any way hurt how she felt about me. I grabbed the sprayer on the sink and sprayed it full into my sisters face, but even then she kept talking about it.

Well, I asked for some truly vivid fully non-lucids, so I guess I got that. I am not used to this, and it makes me cringe a little. I am not sure what to make out of it.
