I get out of bed....everything is black as night. Okay, maybe it'll get better.....no, I'm back in reality. Lets try this again. I head to the living room, and I think about finding Kaomea, and I see her right at the door step, and the door is open. When I get to the door, she's not there....and I get this weird super creepy feeling...like something just scared the shit out of me. Everything turned to blackness as a soon as I stepped out of my house....wtf Okay, here we go. I'm at some club, the lights are flashing like that last lucid I had where I was looking for Kaomea in the club. I run across a couple of people I know...flirting ensues, and I move on. There this one girl who has her hair stuck in one of the buttons on my shirt. I take it off, and restructure her hair to make it look longer fuller and better. A piece falls out while she was dancing, but oh well. I started looking for HER....I came up to a blonde girl, but she had black bangs, and everything else was blonde. I asked her if she's ever seen me in any other dreams, and she said yes. Someone else tapped me on the shoulder, and I ignored her (probably was the real HER) and then I asked her for her name. She said it was Shyree. Then I woke the fuck up. Had some other dream where I had this carton of eggs that could move like a pull back race car.....WTF.
Some guy at this party was calling his teacher a N, only because he was black. I talked to the guy about it, and he said he felt sorry...started crying, and then started laughing and told me I fell for that shit. After that, I wore him out with everything I could, and headed to another area of the party.
Sanding a Pool Stick Someone was showing me how to sand a pool stick tat had been marred up and down the stick. The stick had these circular designs like stains or something. The guy used something that looked like a saxophone reed. He said something referring to the sanding tool like, "They are expensive, so they are strong, flexible, and ___________." He then sanded the stains and grooves out of the stick with this tool. I woke up at this point and remembered exactly what he said about the tool. I wanted to remember it because dream quotes are important to me, but I went back to sleep and forgot exactly what was said. Fight I was at some kind of party. Someone had a problem with something I said. I tried to explain to him that he didn't understand the context and to just not worry about what I do. He was acting like a prick, so I put my hands on him, pressing on a pressure point, and hoping to get him to decide not to fuck with me. He wanted to fight. I really didn't want to fight, so I told the guy I was going to tell someone at the party. I was hoping this would make the guy decide we really shouldn't fight, but the guy didn't care. I decided I would just fight the guy. I went out and was ready to kick the guys ass, and quickly found I wasn't very flexible. I had my jeans on over my sweats. I quickly took off my jeans without him attacking me. I then felt much better, but then we didn't fight anymore. I then went into some apartment or dorm. I think someone is going to be expecting me to be in it and steal something, or do something else wrong, so I hide behind a little wall. I can still see someone walking up some stairs, but suspicious, and looking for me. I can see their feet and so they see me, but then just walk up the stairs as though they hadn't, or they saw me and then the dream changed so that they actually didn't see me. The dream was vivid. I should be able to remember it in greater detail. The End.
12/27/12 Sleep Time:1:00 Waking Time:9:30 Supplements Mugwort (tea from my own pickings), Valerian (4g capsule) I had a lucid and a non-lucid dream last night. But my lucid dream faded away quite quickly. My non-lucid dream on the other hand, lasted a while but I can't remember all of it. Here's what I remember. Lucid Dream: My lucid dream starts, when I find myself in a long, rolling green field. The sun is shining, and the grass looks quite textured and soft. That's the cue that I'm dreaming since it's the dead of winter up here in the North-east, so I shift into lucidity. Unfortunately as soon as I do that, the dream begins to fade, and the scene blurs. I focus on my hands (Castaneda technique) and my other sensory perceptions, to try and ground myself in the dream. It's too late, I fade out. Non-Lucid Dream: This takes place in the apartment complex I was in, in my last dream, but in a different apartment. I'm alone this time, there's this girl I know, K, who is walking behind me. I stop at a friends door, and she stops there with me. I smile at her and say, "Seeing V too?". I knock on the door to my surprise, my friend W answers. I haven't seen in him in a while so I grab him in a big bear hug. He laughs, and invites me in. He's a great guitar player, and he's playing with some people right now in my dream (V and M). The rest of the dream is pretty mundane, I listen to them try to piece together a cover of a Jimi Hendrix song (can't remember which). I help out a bit, since I'm a musician, but I don't know the particulars of this song. The girl K sits on a couch, looking with sparkling eyes at all of us. I want to go talk to her, but I don't know what to say. The dream ends when I wake up and realize I've overslept =/, guess I'm paying for last nights sleep deprivation.
took: 0 dose of galantamine + choline (trying to alternate nights of galantamine) lucid dreaming: 3 lucid experiences note: - got to sleep at 12PM - lengthy WBTB up between 5:30AM to 7:50AM - string of LDs (low control) 7:50AM - 8:30AM, RC via watch theory: you can have an LD during any sleep stage, but any time LDing does not count as rest... the more you LD, the more sleep you need (Sorry no chart, technical difficulties)

Newbie here... Was not sure to skip the intro post and go right to Dream Experience forum. Please move if not correct(?). --Woke me at 3am 12-28-2012-- FREAKY FREAKY DREAM! I am calling it... "Obama trying to stump the White House Chef." Woke up with a sinking feeling and had the dream fading from my mind. Of course as dreams do, you lose some of it.. Here it is in a Nutshell... I am at the White House having dinner with the Obamas and Barrack asked me what I wanted for dinner "Anything", he said... "Something Cajun sounds good", I replied.. Thinking 'Mmm Catfish maybe.' He's on the phone to the chef and says.. "Can ya whip up some Cajun Veal" (gross I thought) and Michelle chimes in and says "Yeah, the kind he has to kill with a Bolt Gun RIGHT HERE" (poking her forehead), as she was turning to her kids and they all started laughing. I remember seeing a maniacal 'Evil' on that woman's face and the kids were like little demons. It was like sitting in a house from Hell. Evil poured through my soul. I woke up wrapping my Noodle around that one while making coffee and here I am... Found this site and thought I would share. Any dream experts out there care to put my dream into context? Leda
I'm forgetting how some of these dreams start. I can only remember a few. I'm inside a music shop, one that I thought of. The music store was filled with so many different types of musical instruments but the only instrument I was interested in was the piano. The piano was all I could play while living in my house. This store looked a lot like the one near the park where I used to walk whenever I found curiosity in the city. I imagined it while dreaming. This place was also seen as a dangerous part of town if you're walking alone. I never liked this place in real life or in this dream. But this music store was the only interest I had while dreaming and while I was dreaming of it, I thought of my beautiful piano. I never actually played one in the dream but I thought of it. As soon as I was done finishing up, I walked in to the back room of the store and begin making an exit towards the waking life. The next room I entered was very quiet, not for long though. I saw one of my favorite rappers who is obviously Eminem! Well, at the time he was only Slim Shady. I also saw one of his friends, I think it was Proof too. It is sort of hard to explain this next part. Eminem wanted to make a song about his father at the moment, a good song, and they were performing the song now. Proof was in the background while Eminem was moving his arms gangster style. This whole thing was all inside my head. I saw a screen of them both performing it but never saw it in that room. When the dream ended, I realized I was now in a paralyzed state. I noticed because I felt very sleepy at the time. I was laying in bed thinking it to be real until I found out I had no power to move my feet. I was in fear and it only got worse when I felt a sensation of an upcoming terror entering the room! I tried my whole best to get up from bed. My eyes begin to close and the more they tried to close, the harder it was to try and stay in the position I was. After this, I woke.
12/27/2012 3:30am All I can remember is rope being either braided or unwound.
So I was in the gymnasium at my old middle school, and a football game was taking place. But I wasn't participating, but rather I was flying around on a small, wooden chair. I specifically remember seeing one boy who apparently did not know the rules of football because he caught the ball, then stood there dazed and confused. So I basically spent my time weaving through the players and enjoying the flying chair. I learned to control it, but as I did, I noticed that I was having more and more difficulty flying. (I could control the chair by holding onto the side of the seat, pulling up on one side would cause me to bank and therefore turn. Pulling up on both sides would go up. Leaning forward would make me go forward) Early on, I was flying high above everyone's heads, near the ceiling of the gymnasium, but by this point I was only a few inches off the ground. I flew over into the corner and got off. There was an old woman there who requested to have a flying chair too. A second wooden chair appeared. At this point, I wanted to try and get into the air again, so I got onto my chair, and flew into the wall. But before I hit it, the chair tilted to the wall, so the bottom was facing the wall. I went straight up the side of the wall about ten feet, then flipped around and glided back down towards the floor. I tried to keep going higher, but the flying wooden chair seemed to be out of power because it could barely hover, and eventually the chair was scraping against the ground until I came to a stop in the middle of the gymnasium. I kept trying to get the flying chair to work some more, but it refused. I think that I woke myself up out of my frustration. I should try that chair in a lucid dream. Tonight, maybe. My next lucid dreaming experiment is to try to create a "dream base". I can remember reading somebody's forum post about the idea. The concept is to incubate a dream inside your base so you become lucid. I think that the intent of building a base with the knowledge that you would return may increase the number of lucid dreams.

The dream began long before i can recall what was going on in it. It started in a place I've dreamed of before i call Aeris. this wasn't the Aeris I've dreamt of before though, it was only "supposed to be" Aeris. It looked more cartoonie is the best way to describe it. Well, me and three other people were in it. For all intents and purposes I'll call them my dream wife, gatekeeper, and the other guy. Well from where i can remember me, my dream wife, and the gatekeeper are riding on the back of a ?hippo? (it was the size of an elephant though). The other guy was tied to a rope tied to one of the back feet flying behind. the hippo was hopping(gigantic hops) down a river. We were all trapped in Aeris trying to escape(except the hippo). I looked back at the other guy and wondered what it'd be like to be back there and we switched places. everytime the hippo landed i'd be submerged in the river till he jumped again(i almost drown once so being underwater in a dream is frightening to me). near the end of our journey the rope broke. they went ahead. i was trapped in a clam under the water. the clam had air but it was quickly filling up with water. i broke it open bracing for a rush of water but none came. once i broke the clam open i was in a giant rubber ball with a small circular ?door?. i opened that expecting the same as before but this time i was in a metal container with a similar circular door. i opened the door it spun open like the inside of a gun barrell at the beginning of a James bond movie(best way i can describe it). a series of these doors opened one right after the other and i was standing on a set of steps leading to a white gateway. the gatekeeper was dressed in white with a white top hat. this white gateway was the gateway from Aeris to Earth (or the "supposed" Aeris to my usual dreamscape). All four of us passed through and i told the gatekeeper i wanted to leave the gate open. i felt like it was great that the gate was opened and nothing or no one would ever be trapped in there again. He said no but that i could keep a key(it was a golden skeleton key). he closed the gate and then he(the gatekeeper) and the other guy went there separate ways. me and my dream wife just started walking and talking. it felt great like we never get to just walk and talk(although we do all the time in other dreams). we walked to a dojo/gym and went inside. the gatekeeper was there. it is almost like the dream ?skipped ahead a couple of years? (Im a security officer in real life) I was in my uniform and he was in a black gi (is that how you spell it?). so know he was in all black and the gym was padded in all black with a padded black obstacle course. he said officers (apparently he was a security officer too) had been coming by all day to sign up for his training senario but none had come back. he was mad and let down.(oh, without the top hat his hair was black too). We wished him the best and left. we started just walking and talking again(dont remember what we talked about but it was insignificant like just being able to talk to her was all i wanted). We walked into a McDonald's and there was the other guy behind the counter. his hair was long and he looked sloppy, disheveled and out of shape. Me and my dream wife asked him why he would choose such a mundane job after experiencing what we all had. he didn't answer. we jumped on one of the tables and jumped across all the tables to leave (maybe to show him we were more exciting than him? Although in real life i would never belittle someone for their job. a job's a job). We left McDonald's and started to walk and talk again but i somehow became lucid. she wasn't right beside me at the moment and I had to tell her "?I would never see her again?"( i'll probably see her tomorrow when i go to sleep). i walked up to the wrong girl at first and didn't realize it(probably because i was lucid and extremely anxious) the other girl was not as pretty as her but i figured maybe this is what she looks like in real life. I heard her voice "I'm over her dummy". I turned and saw her face just radiant and beautiful and clearer than its been in a long time (i can still remember exactly what she looks like right know)and her hair looked a lighter brown. I ran over to her and tried to tell her "I will never see you again" but i began crying uncontrollably. The love and the pain, the feelings were just so extremely intense. I really believed i would never see her again. all i could do was hold her and lay my head on her chest and cry, trying the whole time to tell her. She tried to console me and was saying something along the line of "whatever you're trying to tell me its ok." i heard the people too the side of us, the group the wrong girl was in, start to make fun of me for crying but i could care less about them. and while i was still trying to tell her i woke up. the things that seem the most significant after thinking about the dream are that the dream was once again about four people. their were also four gateways ( the clam, the ball, the metal container, and the door) and the fourth gateway was white as well as the keeper dressed in white. also the change from white to black for the gatekeeper, the moment i saw her face, and my sadness.
12.27.2012Green Lantern and Shotgun (Non-lucid) NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID I'm wielding a shotgun that looks like it's just a toy rather than the actual weapon. Green Lantern, the one from Justice League and Justice League Unlimited, is out to help me (I think) hunt after some older man. I don't know why I would be on a hunt for someone, but I had feelings of fear that if I had to reload, the old man might come out of the doors I'm going through and shoot me. Fortunately, that didn't happen, but there was one moment where I was very close to being shot at. I think Green Lantern was just flying around, can't recall much because I didn't really give much devotion to recalling dreams today.
Seems all I find in subcon lately are reminders of the crap going on in the real world, some obvious, and some symbolized. I've had 2 dreams about getting back together with my ex, and 2 where I've moved on and am with someone else, but in both cases things just never seemed to go right. Dreams about my teeth falling out, and snakes crawling up my sleeves in the symbolism department, and again, I'm sure it all goes back to the break up. Last night I even had the horror of being chased around by a girl a friend of mine had tried to set me up with prior to the girl that I just broke up with (thankfully that never went anywhere), although that is probably the most bizarre chase dream I've ever had, it definitely wasn't fun. The only thing I can remember dreaming about at all in the last couple of weeks that still has me scratching my head wondering what exactly was going on, was a dream about the wrestler HHH playing Dungeons and Dragons. I've tried forcing scene changes and all that ever seems to happen is I get a brand new scene that is just as unpleasant or worse. Got to get some real life things changes going I guess, these dreams have been horrible, probably the worst stretch of dreams I've ever had.

12/27/12 Hidden Poison I am in my Fire Valkyrie on my way to the moon. I realize many of my dreams will be starting like this since I am trying a different hypnosis program when I fall asleep which ironically enough involves a trip to the moon during the process of relaxation. So I am able to start this dream off lucid. I land on the moon and explore the craters briefly before deciding to open a portal to somewhere I might be needed. I trace out a circle in front of me which becomes a portal and I go through it. I enter into a garden of some kind which looks like the numerous small garden enclosures in Florence in Assassin's Creed II. It is night time and I am not sure why I have come here. I am looking at the garden when someone runs in looking quite frantic. He grabs me by my robes and says I have to save him, the person after him is going to kill him. The guy looks like he is about to piss his pants… smells like he already has. I ask who is trying to kill him, he says it is an Assassin. What is he, a Templar? He says he has no idea what a Templar is. He looks like he is lying. A man enters the garden and stops, looking at me strangely. He is dressed like an Assassin. The man who was running hides behind me, looking quite pathetic. The Assassin mocks him for hiding behind a girl. He then looks at my robes and says the man chose the wrong woman to try to hide behind. He says the coward behind me was trying to poison the city's water supply. The coward says the Assassin is lying. The Assassin says the poison is in a vial in the man's pouch. The man refuses to show me what is in his pouch. More people have arrived in the garden. A bunch of guards. The coward hiding behind me laughs and tells the guards to kill both the Assassin and me, since apparently we are working together. So a fight breaks out. I use my Witchblade sword, which seems to surprise everyone when it forms. The Assassin and I fight against what I estimate to be eight guards, until six of them are dead and two of them think better of continuing to fight and run away. The Assassin climbs up a wall and grabs hold of the fleeing man, the one who had originally hidden behind me, and kills him before throwing the body back into the enclosure. I still have my sword out, not sure if he's going to attack me, but he says we are on the same side here. So I put my sword away. When I get a better look at him I see it looks like he is Ezio Auditore. I confirm that it is Ezio, he says we need to get somewhere safe before the body is found. He turns to leave, apparently expecting me to follow, but he will soon find there is no one there because it is here that I wake up. Bullies I am climbing around on the roofs of Florence in a full virtual reality version of Assassin's Creed II. But I am not playing as Ezio… I am playing as a female Assassin. It is awesome. I wonder how come I didn't get this virtual reality system sooner. I am collecting eagle feathers from the roofs of the buildings, looking to find the last of the feathers in Florence. I jump from one roof to another to grab a feather. I wonder how hard it will be to climb to the highest places in virtual reality when the possibility of falling looks so real. I look down to determine if the heights will bother me. I have never been afraid of heights in my waking life, and I am not afraid of heights now. I see some assholes down below me. Four sizeable guys are pushing one woman around, I hear them talking about taking turns at her. One of them says they should go somewhere more private. Another says he knows where they won't be bothered. Being unafraid of heights, I jump down off of the roof and land right behind one of the assholes. I tell them to leave the woman alone or there's going to be trouble. Three of the four men laugh. The fourth one looks scared, which I had expected laughter from all of them. One of the laughing men said two women means twice as much fun. The scared person is repeating the word 'ass' over and over again. One of the men grabs my arm and says if I relax maybe I'll have some fun, too. The scared guy finally yells that I am an Assassin and turns and runs out into the street, he runs flat into a guard. The guard starts pushing him around and he keeps pointing and yelling that there is an Assassin over there. I comment that one of them has a brain… let go of me and leave the woman alone, last chance. He tries to pull me with him, still laughing. I nail him with my hidden blade. Another says no bitch is going to take him out. He charges at me and practically skewers himself on my other hidden blade. The fourth one runs away in the same direction the first one went. I notice that the guards don't seem to be taking their claims of an Assassin seriously. They are mocking the two men. The woman thanks me for saving her life. I see the two men get hot headed with the guards, they start throwing insults and get themselves arrested. The woman thanks me again and then hurries off down the street, seeming in a hurry to get somewhere. I climb back up the wall of the building. It seems harder to climb than I had expected it to be. Is it because it's virtual reality? Maybe… As I am climbing the wall I feel like I am going to fall, but I fall into my bed as I wake up.
So at work (where else) I came up with a brilliant idea to fix my flying problems. You see, I often have no trouble taking off, but end up losing altitude; or find myself unable to move from vertical to horizontal flight without losing too much altitude. It's a mental issue, I know. I can't "unfeel" gravity 100%, so it continues to exist a little. So if I can't cancel it, I can at least beat it! I was in a dream a few nights ago, and found myself flying. When I remembered the trick I invented, I tried it. I pretended my hands and feet were thrusters, like on Iron Man's suit. It worked. I took off vertically, and went high. Higher than what I usually manage. And I went fast. Very fast. This experiment was a success, and I'll use that trick every time from here on out.

I realize Im dreaming. I remember what my intention was. (I decide what to try in my next lucid dream before I hit it) This time, my intention was to try and meet another dream character and ask it weather it also was dreaming, or if it was in my dream. So I meet someone. It is an older male figure. I feel he knows stuff. I ask him, "are you dreaming right now too?" He says nothing. So I ask another question, "Are you in my dream?" Still quiet... Then I ask him, "is this all just a giant dream, in which both you and I co-exist kinda like just being here..?" Then he looks at me, with a nice big smile on his face, as if I'm on to something. I remember feeling excited, getting the chills. That old feeling of me loosing control over the dream hits me. Then I wake up.
