This was a fairly short little lucid, but I did get some phasing in and felt really happy throughout. And I guess I really like galantamine. LOL.

Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

Lucid #60: It's Just a Phase

I'm walking around in my childhood bedroom, practicing lucid dreaming skills. Somehow, though, I'm not actually lucid. (This was a strange feeling.) I'm trying to fly around the room but keep bouncing off of the walls and ceilings. I try shouting "L-dopa!!" like in my previous lucid dream, but even this doesn't do much.

After a while, I feel discouraged. I'm standing by the window wondering what to do when I realize that I wasn't really lucid yet, and everything that had gone before was just me robotically acting out some sort of pseudo-lucid script.

I'm suddenly on the bed again, and everything now feels really vivid. It feels like an OBE except that I'm getting up out of my childhood bed, not the one my physical body's actually occupying. I move to the window again and look out into the street.

The mini-blinds are partially closed but I decide to phase through both them and the glass, get outside, and go play. I push myself through the window, right hand first and pop out in the front yard. It's pretty dark out but when I look at my hands, they're clear and detailed. (Undistorted, too, just like the previous lucid dream.)

I start running, overcome with joy. As I race down the empty street, I gush without a hint of irony: "Galantamine, how I love you!" (That is so freakin embarrassing to type now! ) Darkness descends before I get very far, I don't properly prep for DEILD, and the dream ends.

What a morning of dreams!
It started off with me meeting up with a guy I really liked. He looked like Peter Schilling who sang "Major Tom" in the 80's - cute, but a little creepy. He seemed interested and asked if I could help him. He had a white tee shirt he wanted to decorate in a Monty Python style. He grabbed my right wrist and slit it vertically with a razor blade. It started bleeding profusely, so I wiped the blood on the shirt. Oh, I thought, this is the killer rabbit tee shirt! Then when the bleeding had all but stopped, this guy caught my left wrist and slit it! Again, I wiped the blood on the shirt. I was scared now because I didn't know who the razor blade had been used on previously, and I wondered if I was contracting HIV doing this. The guy kept fingering the razor blade and sticking his own fingers. I wondered if he was healthy. Not mentally, I assumed, but I still liked him. We went to a drug store and while in line at the pharmacy, I gave him a big hug. He winced and said I shouldn't do that, his ribs on his left side were very tender.

Next dream, I was back at my childhood home. I was getting it on with a young Chris Tucker in the living room. Then I went to my room and closed the door. Suddenly my family barged in wearing hoods. Kind of freaky. I had not put my turtleneck back on yet, and I wondered if my mother would figure out what I'd been up to in the living room. She didn't seem to notice though, and she didn't say anything.

Next dream, I left the house to go to the store. As I drove down the street, my car shrank so small I could barely fit in it. I made it to the store though and went inside. Everyone was really friendly, saying hello, good to see me etc, and then as I walked up to the counter in the back, I realized to my horror that I was not wearing any pants. I had my pants with me, so I took them out and tried to figure the most discreet way of putting them on. I sat down in the floor and then thought how dirty it probably was, and I was in my underwear! So I stood and leaned against the counter, slipped the pants over my feet, and finally got them up with much struggle. I wondered why no one had said anything about me wandering pantsless through the store.

Day1: 2nd lucid dream I ever had!!

So I had been dreaming A LOT of things and the dreams were very vivid. Somewhere along one of my dreams I was sitting in a chair in a modern villa with those big open windows and it was snowing and I could really see the snow hitting the window from the outside , it was just so super-realistic! But anyways, now on to the lucid dream.
So after about 5 hours of sleep my alarm went of, I went to the bathroom and then returned and layed down. I tried SSILD, but somehow it didn't seem to work. I just could not focus enough on the visual part of the technique and after about 20 minutes I gave up on it. I thought that if that didn't work maybe I could WILD. But that didn't work either and I quickly after I fell asleep. I then woke up 2 hours later and recorded the dreams that I had, cause I was worried that I wouldn't remember them. I then again fell asleep and this is where I had my second lucid!!
I was flying over a city and it was (again as in my first lucid) very dark. The city also wasn't much detailed at all, the buildings were just blocks and cubics. I also (again) had the feeling that something scary was going to happen because of the darkness. So I thought to myself "I want to go somewhere sunny", and closed my eyes. When I opened them I saw that nothing had changed (I thought!). I was hovering above the city and there was also a big sea to the left. Suddenly the sun set and it was really beautiful. First it was orange as it gently appeard on the horizon. I could see the shimmering on the water and then moments later it was fully shining. The city itself was a little 'hazy' and not that clear, but I didn't focus on it anyway. Alright, so the darkness had dissapeard and the first thing that crossed my mind was to look for some details, things to look at. I wanted to see something vivid and clear. I flew a little bit further and saw a little boat next to te shore. I flew down and saw 4 people sitting on there knees in the middle of the boat. They were trying to break the floor with their shovels. As I wanted to see 'details' I went closer and looked at the floor. First the floor cracked and came out, but like just in 1 piece. I was dissapointed at how shalow that had been. But then someone slammed his shovel into the floor and I could see little cracks appearing and was glad it was so realistic (I know, not very interesting, but still :p )
Then suddenly I had an eagle vision from above and saw another boat coming in really fast. Back on the boat I was standing at the beginning of the boat and was not looking at the direction from which the other boat approached. Then "BAM" I heared the other boat crash into the back of our boat and saw the 4 people panicking and screaming. 2 managed to escape but a man and a woman didn't and ran to the very beginning of the boat to run away from the other boat, who already had pierced into our boat and literally split it. Because of the crash the woman fell over the railing, but the man reaches out to her and pulls her back on, but she dies. And then suddenly the man gets brutaly pierced by a spear. After that I get to watch a cutscene from some monsters who come from behind the corner and come running towards me. (It are monsters from a game I played before going to bed :p ) The cutscene ends and suddenly I'm playing this character behind my pc in my room. So I know I'm lucid and can do everything I want, so I go into the settings and set every power to the max. Back in game and superpowerfull I begin clicking on my left mouse button, but it doesn't seem to work because my character doesn't attack. I realise that I must have changed the controls in the settings :p I remember that it had changed to a key on my keyboard so I press it. It works and my character slices one monster and he dies immediately. (I don't actually see myself sitting at my computer, it's like I have a full view of the game, but like in the background I feel myself sitting and clicking)
Here's where it becomes interesting
Suddenly the view changes and I actually see myself sitting there and I hear my brother coming into my room behind me. As I am lucid and don't want him to interrupt and end my dream (I actually thought at that moment that I was awake, but it's wierd because on the other hand know I am lucid...It seems like my lucidity and knowing that it's a dream rappidly changes back and forth, because when I think back on it now, in the part with the boat and the crash I was not lucid and simply looking at what happened. It's not really clear to me...could it be that I'm dreaming I'm lucid in a dream?)
So as my brother is coming in (still looking at my computer) I begin shouting and cursing at him for knowing he will 'break' the lucidity. At that moment I'm starting to doubt myself and I'm thinking that maybe I'm still dreaming...(I know It's really confusing that at one moment I am lucid, and then the other moment I think I'm awake, but still thinking I'm lucid in my dream and PFFFF sorry if this is really hard to follow) So as I doubt that I'm actually dreaming and NOT awake, I open my curtain and become supershocked to see that my street is completely different from what it is in real life. I now realise that I am still dreaming and nothing of this is real (because it was very realistic and everything felt very real). I also realise that this brother wasn't my real brother and tried to decieve me (to believe he WAS real) . So I turn around and look at him (for the first time because he now had entered) and I rush towards him. I begin punching him because I was just really scared that I actually believed he was real. I was really shocked of knowing that all of this was not real and had been created to deceive me. I drag my 'brother' to the window and hysterically shout that this is not the street we actually live in and I feel scared. I grab my brother's both arms and we struggle and trie to reach the upper hand on one another. I felt so betrayed that I wanted to actually kill him. Of anger I began squeezing his wrists and wanted to hurt him. But then suddenly everything fades away and, still feeling myself squeezing his wrists, I realize that I'm actually squeezing my own wrist as I lay in my bed.

So yeah that was dream; I hope it wasn't thàt confusing to read...Is it possible that like Lucidity and non-lucidity change rappidly? Because I have the feeling that might be the case with me. But still day 1 and having my second lucid dream I'm proud of it!

This actually happened a long time ago when I was really interested in Astral Projection and tried to do it myself. I tried WILD for the most part, but usually failed (fell asleep, got distracted etc.)
So this one night I was sleeping and felt myself rising up in the air. So I thought to myself, 'This is it! I did it!' I looked down and saw myself in bed sleeping with my eyes open. At that point I had a thought 'What if my folks come in my room and see me not moving in my bed with my eyes open. They'll think I'm dead or in a coma or something.' So I rolled my physical body over and covered it with a blanket. At this point I should have realized that this is clearly not an OBE.
After that was taken care of I started thinking what to do now. First thing I wanted to do was learn to fly. So I just went all 'F#@k it!' and jumped out of my 3rd floor bedroom window. I did not fly however, but instead fell face first to the ground.
A bit disappointed I went to school, which is like 200m across from my house. There the fun began. I noticed no one could see me and I somehow finally learned to fly. I used these abilities to see what can I do while astral projecting. I found it a bit weird that i could touch some things and others I would just go right through. In one of my experiments I saw my gym teacher walking down the school hall, so I just started to fly towards her full speed ahead just to see what happens. What happened was I rammed into her. I bounced back as I saw my teacher clench her abdomen in pain and fall down. Oops!
Next you can probably imagine what a 17 y.o high school student would do in a school full of girls, so I won't go into detail about what happened next.
Only after I woke up I came to the conclusion that what I just experienced was not an OBE. It felt realistic for the most part, but when thinking about it it was all fake. Like, why would I still be in bed when the school has already started. Duh! Instead it was a Lucid dream, I didn't realize was a Lucid dream, since I controlled my actions, questioned my surroundings. The error was that I got LD mixed up with an OBE.
At least that is what I think, any outside opinions are much appreciated!

...but I didn't write it down. Shame on me. I vaguely recall that it felt like I was repeating a previous dream. In the lucid dream, I was explaining to a DC that I had had this dream before and I knew what would happen next. That went on for a while. Then I took control, changed the scene and had some dream sex. It felt like at least 45 minutes total. When the dream finally ended, I was left in SP for several minutes. It wasn't uncomfortable. It felt interesting.

This morning after 7h of sleep, i got lucid when i understood a shift in location.
i said to DC ( btw he also transmutated) that i was dreaming and he said that we were all dreaming ! Fine, i thought. wihtout any consideration for stabilization i imediately started flying , and i got my pay -off my dream faded.

its really important to learn about stabilization tecnhiques, so you dont waste your oportunities !!

I don't remember much of this one.
The whole city cast in gray, but not that weird purple gray from the Saja dream. Still, it feels familiar. Bare. Like everything is covered in a thin shell of concrete. I'm standing in front of a two foot wide lamp post. Sitting by my feet is a hat box with no lid, also gray. Inside is a crown. It is tarnished gold with a laced pattern, but thick and heavy. I'm supposed to hold it until the angel comes.
I see the angel a ways down the street, he's a blurry and indistinct figure dressed in a black trench coat and tie. I blink and he's 10 feet closer. I stifle a stab of fear and raise my hand in greeting.
When I turn around there's a tall brown haired man standing behind me. He's wearing a sleeveless leather jerkin and no shirt underneath. He puts me on edge, he feels like a threat.
"You waitin' for someone, darlin'?"
"What makes you think I'm waiting for someone?"
He looks amused.
When I glance around the back of the lamp post, checking to see if he's alone, I find a man there dressed all in black and gray. I know he's an honorable man, I know he isn't here with the thief
"Well?" He asks.
"Who would I be waiting for, my husband?" I say this, knowing I'm trying to imply I'm married even though I'm not, just in case he gets the wrong idea. He grins at me, understanding perfectly. He's pretending not to notice the box on the ground. He saunters past it, and I almost miss the motion...he does some sort of fancy trick with his leg. It's quick, and far more stealthy than if he had leaned down to pick up the crown. Still, the motion draws my attention and when I catch a glimpse of the box, the crown is gone.
"Hey, you can't take that!"
He has his body turned to face the sidewalk, so the arm holding the crown like an over-sized bracelet is hidden from view. I reach past him and grab it. He catches a hold of it and we both tug on it for a minute. He lets go when the damn thing becomes warped from the pulling. I look at it, feeling sick. What did he do? Will the angel still take it? Where IS the angel, anyway?
"Fine, you can have the bloody thing. I'm not gonna wrestle a girl over a fake artifact."
"What do you mean? It's not fake..."

I've been a little dry since Saturday so every little bit helps. By the way, I am not adding this to my count.

Pre-Bed 5MG Melatonin
WBTB 3:30 (Missed alarm so I just got up at 4:00 long enough to take LDS)
100MG Caffeine
200MG B6

Unfortunately, I was able to finally confirm that taking melatonin pre-bed seems to cause WBTB insomnia. I didn't fall back to sleep until 5:30-5:40

I am driving in a mini-van. I begin to take notice of my visual awareness. (I have been hitting ADA pretty hard this week. I think it was sinking in) I noticed in great detail the road and the turns. I begin to ask why am I here, What was I just doing, and most importantly why am I driving a mini-van? I hate mini-vans. My mind begins to wonder on those questions and my attention slips from my driving. (distracted driving HA!) I found myself on the wrong side of the guard rails on some mountain road. Ding! The light comes on. I don't have to verbalize that I am dreaming. I am just lucid. I instantly know that I can just fly away and have total freedom. I am not in a vehicle anymore and as I begin to float up into a vivid clear blue sky...I wake up just before the alarm. Must be that internal alarm clock thing. Dammit!

Sleep position: Left Side

I was walking near the river and moved to a town, understood that its a dream and flew away thinking about TOTY with Sphinx. I found myself near the piramids, but around them was big town with multistory buildings! I was walking looking for the sphinx. I found him, but he was not big - like an elephant and painted like chineese dragon. I thought about reparing his nose, but he has already had the nose. I thought about making him vivid, but he already was alive and began to fight with me. I thought that i had no chanse to climb with him on the piramid and woke up.

The last dream, at the end of which I was very briefly lucid.

In the dream, I was in sort of a version of the Classic World of Darkness role playing game. The Technocratic Union was ruling the USSR and later Russia ever since the communist revolution, while the Traditions were mostly based in western Europe. There was something about vampires there too, that arrived to a Technocratic Union base or something... And they died, and the Union wanted to use their remains for something? To track someone down? It's so vague I'm not wholly sure what I'm remembering and what I'm making up as I go.

Anyway, I "woke up" and started typing the dream down. Then I remembered the previous FAs that night. I layed back on the bed with my eyes closed, and pinched my nose.

Yep, it was a dream allright. I pinched my nose again and again, to make absolutely sure this was a dream. Then I discovered I can't really open my eyes without destabilizing. I lay there for a few seconds, but couldn't do much and the dream was gone. I woke up.

Dream 2

A much more vague dream, something about watching a documentary about the military (Artillery corps?) with my sister. And me telling her and wanting to show her a funny video someone made about George W. Bush. What the hell?

Anyway, I had a false awakening in which I wrote in the laptop about my dream. Might've even had a second one, after I realized the first one was a dream, and "waking" up again to write the dream yet again, before truly waking up, and truly writing it down.

I wasn't smart enough to use the FAs to my advantage at this point yet.

Dream 3

Something about cars, I wanted to buy a car, and there was a special "car day" or something in which various companies competed and tried to sell most cars, and smeared each other on ads similar to how politicians do it before elections. This strange competition was even in the news. I vaguely recall going around and visiting places when they sold cars and had conventions on cars, headquarters of car companies etc.

I then remember riding with a friend of mine from university, he was driving and he was giving me some very strange driving tips, mostly about how to bob and weave quickly through traffic, and I think he used his feet to turn the car more quickly? We were riding in a Mazda, which in real life he had, but no longer have for a long time now.

At some point he wasn't even at the steering wheel anymore, he was sitting in the passenger seat, I was sitting in the middle somehow, and there was a pile of old clothes on the driver's seat, as if nobody sat on it for a while and people just dropped there their coats when they got into the car... He was still somehow "driving" the car.

It's amusing, since we often talk about technology eventually allowing self-driving cars (like that Google prototype) when he drives me to university.

Then the dream changed tone a bit, another friend of mine whom I rarely see was in it. He had sort of an argument with another guy, who was somehow sending him messages through his dreams... something like that. I barely remember it, and I wrote only one line on this part of the dream in the notepad.

--------------------------------------------
I might have had another false awakening, yet again writing on the laptop, either here or at the end of the next dream.
--------------------------------------------

Dream 4

Me, my mother and possibly the rest of the family were in a hotel. My cat was there too, even though we never allow him outside the house. Me and my mother were conspiring somehow against the rest of the family?

Anyway, I remember the cat jumping out of the window. It was a very long way down. First he hung onto the rail of the balcony right below me, but then the idiot jumped down again, going all the way.

After he landed he was lying on his side mewling and moving his legs. I was in a state of near panic, I love my cat. Throughtout the ordeal my mother was strangely unconcerned even though I shouted her to help me, and was preparing to run downstairs to help the poor animal.

Anyway, he not only got up again after a few seconds, he actually climbed up all the way to the window somehow!

Well, I'm back to trying out LDing after years of neglect, during which I experienced only natural LDs at a deteriorating rate. My recall is not as good as it was nowadays either.

Unusual Factors

-I've set up my laptop with notepad open and ready to rumble on the edge of my bed, so I can write in my dream the moment I open my eyes. That's how tonight I've recorded no less than FIVE dreams (woke up a lot and immediately typed it in every time). The entries I bring here are refined versions, since the writings themselves are very disjointed, I wrote them in a half-sleeping, very groggy state after all.

-My dream quality might have been negatively affected by the beer I had a couple hours before going to bed

-Through most of the night, there was a storm outside

-I slept fully clothed.

Dream #1

It started with some sort of war, or apocalypse. It was night, there were police and ambulances around, and there was some prophecy or something like that about very strict and specific instructions on how to stop this apocalypse... The memory is very vague. I vaguely remember Christian undertones. There was a cocoon of some sort, made of cloth or metal, and a person meeting specific parametrs (possibly a specific individual?) needed to be abducted, put into it and brought to a certain place. I vaguely remember about some crazy dude tricking us (who are "us"? Who was there with me?) into putting him into the cocoon, even though he wasn't the right person. I think we eventually realized the prophecy isn't working, or is irrelevant, or something...

At some point this dream flowed into a bit different vein... I was in a large house of some sort, with a pool, arguing with someone else (I think he was supposed to be my relative?) about something. A very heated argument, and I think there were some clues or something that we were angry with each other for reasons not wholly natural, like demonic possession? It's also entirely possible that we knew that we had some sort of super powers?

I wasn't my real life self in that dream. We shouted and argued back and forth, and at some point he admitted he was a serial killer. I showed him a collection of knives stained with old dried blood, and so we've admitted to each other that we were killers without the other knowing it - he was a clean killer in call blood, I was a much messier slasher. The whole thing had VERY Dexter undertones.

At that point we were afraid that something - our shouting? - has attracted the attention of the authorities or some other people. A third person, a friend of some sort that was suddenly present, told me to ditch the knives quickly, as they were obvious evidence against me. The house was a mess, furniture overturned etc, but I opened a drawer on some cabinet and temporarily shoved the knives into it, hoping nobody would find them by the time we get lost.

The three of us got out of the house. It was still night. We needed to get to a certain place for some reason. There were security guards in blue uniforms and caps (didn't look like police though) on patrol outside. They authorized our going to wherever we intended to go (it was very close, possibly even across the street). Was there a curfew because of the apocalypse?

While the two started walking, I climbed the wall of a nearby building. I wasn't lucid, but not far from that. Like I often get in dreams, I instinctively felt that I have powers. I also think me and the other killer's "powers" had been the reason we were shouting. Maybe. Dreams are annoyingly hard to remember even a second after waking from them.

So, I climbed, spiderman style, to the top of a nearby building. It was only a few meters up, the building was a low one, most of all reminding me of a big shed I think. The other killer and the third guy were all hissing at me to get down, and asking what the hell am I doing. I think I did it to try to take a shortcut and reach our destination before them. I didn't fully trust them.

Anyway, I couldn't get up on the roof because there was a lot of barbed wire on top of it. From my vantage point on the wall near the roof I could see the blue-uniformed guards on the roofs of neighbouring buildings (I don't remember if I saw them anywhere else, actually, like on the street. But they were definitely on the roofs).

I got down from the wall to join my two companions (they said that I shouldn't use my powers in public), and... dream became blurry. I awoke.

I become The Mask (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was in a hospital with my wife. Apparently, she was there to do some sort of internship and I was going to wait for her.

We were in a narrow aisle that had benches on both sides of it. Sometimes nurses ran through this aisle, some of them with terminal patients.

Suddenly I saw on the floor the mask from The Mask movie







I knew right away what it was for. I told my wife (now she was with me) about it, but she warned me to not to use it. I found it was going to be very funny to do so and become The Mask, so I did put it on. I started to spin and I had the mask on me. I felt very excited and tricked my wife. She told me I should not put it on.

I did a few funny things with it but I cannot recall it.

I recall a fragment of going into the restrooms by the ER. One toiled had vomit all around and other one had blood. I found it very disgusting and moved away.

I could lie down, count to 3 and levitate. My brother was there. Strange house.

Eye of Buddha (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

This was not a funny dream. I am moving out from the store where I give psychic readings (Eye of Buddha) due some problems in addition of going to have my own office.

I went to the Eye of Buddha because I had an appointment with a client to give a reading. I found a few cats as well as other reader in the store. Speaking with the other reader he said I needed to talk with the owner, that he wanted to talk with me.

I told him I had an appointment at five, but I would when I was done.

I thought in the dream about the stuff that I needed to talk with him.
