I'm laying down in a dark area on the floor. There's a huge white tiger near me. It growls a bit and I started moving, and I felt it grab me by the neck and pull me backwards. The teeth didn't hurt at all. I think I was a cub or something. Another tiger was there and it was still learning how to use its claws.

Still searching....

Either DILD or WILD.

Transition was pretty clam. I felt myself sliding off my bed and then floating through the floor.

It's my house, but it's not. I headed outside and decided to look for Kaomea. I focused on making a black hope on the ground, and after several attempts, I was able too. I jumped in and it felt like I was melting in the ground. I focused on Koamea during my decent and arrived at a big house.

It had polished wooden floors and white walls. And thing were on the ground. Plates, dishes, decretive things made out of glass and crystal. I called out to her and she replied. I found her in another room. I'm still not sure if its her or not, but I'm trying right? We greeted eachother and said a few words...then she mentioned sex. I didn't know what to say at first, but then I was "might as well". And shit got akward....


Another attempt

Back in my room. I head outside, jump on my roof and call out to her. She's about a block away at the edge of my field. I started heading towards her, but something happened. I think someone was in trouble so I tried to help him and things got fuzzy


I ended up having at least two more lucids that night. It seemed like no matter what, I knew it was a dream.

I just had a long lucid dream that I hardly remember. I really hate when that happens.

I remember the part where I was doing something and thought, "Why am I bothering with this since this is a dream? I need to be accomplishing some lucid tasks."

I rembemer eating an apple with no flavor, and thinking that I needed to find something that actually tasted like something.

I remember flying around quite a bit.

I remember thinking about going to the moon, but I must have been to lazy to try.

I finally reember being bored so I took off my shirt and flew around topless like I seem to really enjoy doing in my dreams--I have no idea why.

Frog Insects (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I remember walking outside in the backyard of a random house. There's like a fancy deck with a nice shiny brown shine to it. There's some coverings on top in case of rain, and as I'm walking through this fairly wide and large deck, I see these mini-frogs that are upside down on the ceiling of this deck.

Most of them were green, along with red or black eyes (can't tell), and all of them were looking at me. It was creepy, but they didn't do anything to me but just look at me. It felt like it just rained in this environment, judging by the slight darkness in the sky.

I think I ask someone if these frogs are safe to be around with, and they said "No." They declared that they aren't frogs, they are Frog Insects.

Yeah, that's right, Frog Insects.....lol.

Nana and Empty Black Chairs (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I remember looking a small room, most of the walls are green, the flooring has a basic white/vanilla tile flooring to it, and there's two tables forming in a "L" shape. The whole room itself reminded me of the anime Nana that I just finished a few days ago watching. It felt like the apartment where both Nanas were at the initial part of of the series.

There's a long window that's maybe 10-15 feet away from me, and everything else is just blurry except for the black chairs and two tables aligned into a "L." There was bright light emitting from the window, and something tells me I've been before. I think when I came here the first time, I was wondering what this place is for.

Then I think there's dream shift where I hanged out with a few people, the most noticeable was Nana Osaki. She was wearing a short white shirt that would show her belly, along with a short black skirt with transparent black lingerie leggings. I only remember her opening her mouth with her eyes wide opened, kind of like when she was freaked out/shocked/disturbed/etc.

I tried moving the black chairs a little bit to get space to sit in, but one of the legs of one I tried to moved was resting on some small upper ledge on the floor. This made the chair feel awkward to sit on.

I can't remember much after that.

Bag must be destroyed (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

All I remember was trying to get this white bag I had in my hand to be destroyed. I didn't care how it was done, who destroyed, I just wanted it gone.

I remember it was thrown onto some greeny hillside, and someone made a fire around that area, but it didn't burn the bag at all.

I forget what I did next.

Hello there, and welcome to my dream journal!

I recently started keeping a written dream journal to record my dreams every morning after waking up. I've fallen behind on the task and have skipped more days than I would have liked. I'm going to ease myself back into it and keep working toward lucid dreaming. There is a dream that I had in the past month that I'd like to share with everyone here. What I had written down is short, but it is one that caught my interest.

8/07/2012
non-lucid
I was a little girl who was trying to summon a magical rabbit. Someone was trying to show me how. We used a small black “milk” basket and set a yellow bunny toy inside. I was supposed to go down to the river, submerge the basket with the bunny toy, and drink from the river. Apparently the rabbit would magically appear and reach out of the water to kiss my nose. I remember when I was going down the hill to the river, a song was playing in the background. I specifically remember the part when I saw the sleeping bear and avoided it. For some reason I had swam to the other side of the river because someone was maybe chasing/following me.

I think that I'll only post the dreams that stand out to me here, and I'll keep the messy ones in my private journal. I will share more soon!

Clearness: Fairly clear.
Vividness: Fairly vivid.
Realism: Seemed real, but actually it was littered with physically impossible things.
Mood: Most good, but it had a certain grim part.
Lucid: Almost. Well, a little bit actually.
Oh, and... well uhh... I'd say, red text is lucid. Mmkay? I gotta think of a better color key sometime. >_>

In the first dream, I was playing an entirely fictional video game that I think was called... Syncron... or Cron... or Xion... or something in that fashion. Well, it ended on "-on" anyways. Lol.
The game looked a lot like Unreal Tournament '99, same kinda style, graphics, weapons etc, but there were a few twists. There was only one map that was like some sort of space station. It had 2 floors, the top red team floor and the bottom blue team floor. Each floor was a circular corridor with doors to identical small rooms, and an elevator. In every small room, there were 3 random "power ups", that looked like shining colored beads (it was a lot like the "materia" from FF7), stored in glass containers.
Oh, I know, let's quickly visualize it.



And there wasn't even very much shooting involved. The whole game was generally just more like tactical usage of powerups.
I remember the match was going equally well for both teams. At some point, only me, on red, was left, against only one more player from blue. We both realized that the map had pretty much run out of good powerups, so we were just running around, dodging each other. At some point, I found a yellow powerup, with the effect "Kill parents". This would kill the other player's parents..... yes, for real. And in order to use the only powerup left that could frag him ingame, I had to use this one first. All players purposefully agreed to never use that powerup, but I just had to do it, I had to win, I've never won this game before being the last man standing.
So I decided to use the powerup. Suddenly, I saw on the minimap that the other player stood still; probably because he realized his parents just died. I was about to use the powerup that'd let me win the game... but then I felt remorse, and I used the "Revive parents" powerup, which would undo what I've done. Then I disconnected from the game.
Well, that was kinda weird. I don't have dead parents, or friends with dead parents... nor have I ever killed anyone's parents. (^^;

Anyway... next dream.
The second dream was about waking up in the morning and going to school. I got on the bus (I don't even go by bus IRL), but inside the bus it didn't look like a bus at all. It looked more like a rather large rectangular room which had 3 stacked rows of seats. This area could impossibly be inside of a bus. Anyway, not that I cared, I just rode the bus, talking to some people a bit.
Then I got off the bus, and I realized that I was an hour too early, because someone told me I didn't have any class the first hour. So I was just spending that hour hanging around with school friends, visiting some people.
I particularly remember ringing my sister's ex-boyfriend's door (I've never visited his house IRL, but this was the dream version of his house). It didn't look like a spectacular house from the outside, but inside there was a large, luxurious room with a big indoor swimming pool. I talked with him a bit, and then I went off to school.
Then I realized... I actually DID have a class that hour. I was just hanging out with the guys from the other class, who happened to have a free hour, but I didn't. I also saw that the class was Statistics (which covers a span of 4 hours).
I decided I'd better just go home then, because it's very awkward if you arrive in class an hour too late, especially in statistics class (trust me, I've had it before IRL )

Then I arrived home and I turned on the computer, browsing the internet. I wasn't really paying attention to what sites I was browsing though.
Until... my mom came in the room, looked at my screen, and asked "Hey, what site are you browsing?". Then, I paid attention to the screen, and it was this site.
I wanted to say "dreamviews.com", but upon seeing the logo, I suddenly stopped to think.
Aaand yup, then I realized I was dreaming. Next thing I know, I was sitting in a completely blank room. However, instead of remembering to do any dream stabilization techniques, my mind was occupied with thinking about the anomalous things that happened before (the strange game, the bus, the house), and well... the dream just pretty much ended with the conscious realization "Indeed... this was all a dream".

I kinda noticed how, whenever I attempt to MILD, there is a person at the end of my dream who is giving me subtle hints that I'm dreaming. And this time I actually managed to catch the sign, too.
Technically, the mantra I chose did exactly what it said: "Next time I dream, I will realize that I'm dreaming". However, I very simply became overwhelmed by racing thoughts, and forgot to do the next step. Maybe next time then?

I'm in my apartment with Josh. He says he's planning on getting me something with sapphire in it for my birthday (like a sapphire picture frame?) and he wants to know whether my room is an appropriate color first. We go into my room and look at the walls; they are sky blue, and in places they are shot through with rugged veins of white and darker blue - like the room has been carved out of a strange rock face. Well, the room will obviously match something made of sapphire, but I'm wondering why Josh doesn't know that my birthstone is actually amethyst.

---

I'm in a hospital bathroom that would probably be fairly spacious in normal circumstances; however, there are four people in here, and we are fighting--myself and one other person against two men who I identify as gang members of some sort. We are throwing each other against the walls, which are plated with mirrors, and these mirrors begin to shatter under the continued impacts. They don't shatter like normal glass, though; instead they break into many tiny pieces, but stay on the wall for a time before gently falling away as though they were paper. I'm not experiencing any pain despite the violence, but I do know that there's no way I'm going to be able to make it out of the hospital without running into the police.

Then everyone else in the room is gone, and I leave the bathroom to head for the elevator. When I reach it, I notice the "up" button is flashing rapidly, as if to signal that the elevator is partially broken and I can't go up. That's OK, I want to go down… but when I enter the elevator door, there is actually a staircase there instead, richly carpeted in what might be velvet. I make my way down the stairs; I don't have to go far since I'm only on the second floor. I emerge in the hospital lobby. Outside it is late afternoon and overcast. I begin to walk quickly toward the exit. Before I get there, though, I notice a couch (with a late-middle-aged woman sitting on it) and a table, upon which is a chocolate cake. The cake is there for visitors to eat, and I think about taking a piece for myself, but decide against it.

Now I'm outside the hospital and walking down the street. As I go, I pass Mom walking in the other direction. She's wearing some kind of dark denim blouse and a flared skirt--not something I normally see her wearing. As we pass, she gives me a look of recognition but doesn't say anything. [skip] It's nighttime and it has rained recently, since the road is wet. I'm still walking along the street, trying to get to my car. I pass a large clump of parked cars (is there a church service or funeral being held nearby?) before coming across my own car--and a man crouching by the driver's side window. He's writing me a ticket. "You were parked on the wrong side of the road for too long," he says in a half-apologetic way, then walks away. I'm dimly aware that the other cars on the street have also received tickets, and I'm not really mad; it's my fault for parking incorrectly, after all.

I'm in the car with Mom and possibly Josh. As I back out of my spot, I look over at the opposite side of the wet road and see leaves lying there. They are a mix of brilliant red and yellow and look almost petal-like rather than like normal leaves. Whatever they are, they're gorgeous. I have a bigger problem, though… I'm backing up the car but can't seem to actually *stop* it. In fact, I'm slowly speeding up. "Watch out for traffic if you're going to do that," Mom says. Thankfully no cars are coming. As I roll down the road, I begin to understand that I'm not going to get the car to stop normally, so I pull off into a parking lot, begin to downshift the car gradually into first gear, then throw the parking brake. The car stops, but I can feel it sort of quivering--the second I take the parking brake off it's going to start moving again. I don't think Mom was worried about the situation at first, but as I slowed the car down it seemed to dawn on her that we were actually in danger. Now she speaks to me in a quiet, fearful voice. She says it's OK if I want to keep driving, but if I do I have to promise to get myself help because I have "issues." The car is sitting just off the road at the corner of a four-way intersection; as I watch the road I see three or four police cars pass. I'm not sure where I actually want to go.

right now. I have about 5 minutes before I have to go so lemme hurrrrray up .
Recently, I haven't had lucid dreaming on my mind...or so I thought. So the last thing I expected was to wake up from a semi-lucid. I'll retrace my sleep last night.
I got in bed at 11:30. Back up and back down by 12:22 . I found myself tossing and turning, just trying to get to sleep. In my dream, I was in a stressful situation so I did the reality check, noseplug. It failed me, because I could breathe. But I expected to be able to. I was like oh damn! I am lucid and woke up. But really I was still in a dream. Then I went back to "sleep" and again, said I am in a lucid. In my dream, I ran around the school asking where lacrosse started. I was with sophomores and they had to show me where to go. I asked a teacher, he said he couldn't help me etc. I realized I was in another lucid. I don't remember after that but I love how I got closer to 100% awareness without thinking about it. #proud

I was in my living room with Henri (my cat) and Bugsy (my friend's rabbit, who I looked after for a couple weeks recently while she was away). Henri meowed, and Bugsy copied him. I thought it was really cool that a rabbit was able to mimic a cat. I looked back at Henri, but Oliver (my other cat) was there instead.

Dream - Lucid

For some reason, I decided to take a shower in my mom's shower instead of mine. Even in the dream, I wasn't exactly sure why I was doing it, but I didn't question it too much. Most of the dream was just me showering in my mom's shower.

I was in my house. Out the window, I noticed a glimpse of my brother mowing the lawn. He was wearing a red shirt.

Then, I was with my brother in the kitchen. I was messing with an egg. He then said "Oh wait!" and pulled a narrow-looking egg out of a cloth shopping bag. He gave it to me, and I noticed it felt very light and was dyed blue. I wondered it if was hard-boiled and if I could eat it, but decided not to when another thought came into my head: He probably did it for Easter.
"Dying eggs?" I asked.
"Yes!" he replied.

Alright, so I recalled a bit more. I didn't really do anything different, like I was gonna try Xanous's suggestion to write down the events of the day before I went to bed, but I forgot. I'll have to try that tonight.

[COLOR="royalblue"]Non-Aware (Dream)[/COLOR] - [COLOR="blue"]Partially Aware (Lucid Dream)[/COLOR] - [COLOR="navy"]Fully Aware and Vivid (Astral Projection(OOBE)[/COLOR]

I got home very late this night. I had been at an amusement park all day and I was very tired so I didn't thought I would remember any dreams, but I had some interesting experiences. =)

[COLOR="royalblue"]The first dream was kind of weird. Me and some friends had in some way got our hands of 180, 000, 000 $! I think those who had steal it accidentally gave us the wrong bag or something. I were not in my home country, I think I was in Yugoslavia, and I had all the money in my house. I hear the door bell and intuitively knew that it was the police, and when my mom opened the door I took the bag and hid in a closet. It was the police and I calmly talked to them and pretended that I had no idea what they were talking about when they mentioned the money.We wondered what we was going to do with the money and if we could use it at all. We was afraid that there might be fake money in it or something and that we would get caught if we used it, so I went to a bank with some money from the bag and told them I wanted it on my bank account. We were super nervous. But then the dream changed.

The next dream was also very weird, it was almost like it tired to teach me something.
I had a dream where I was a super loner and very geeky and I hang around with some of my friends.
Then I got superpowers for some reason and I didn't hide them, so I got super cool and super popular and got lots of new "cool" friends. All the super hot bimbos and all the cool popular guys. Then everything just rewind I am back where the dream began and only the true friends remained.

I then had some dream about me looking up into the night sky, and I suddenly see a light blue jellyfish looking object floating around in the sky. I think to myself "cool an alien ufo." and I look through some binoculars to get a better view.
But as I do lots of other shaped ships appear and they didn't looked manmade.
[COLOR="blue"]I realize that it is a dream and I think to myself "Ok now I am going to find Iapetos!" but then I for some stupid reason think that I will scream in my real life as well.. This thought have crossed my mind before while dreaming. And it's like a curse.. So I didn't screamed instead I lost my lucidity...[/COLOR]
People on the street now saw the ships and started to panic "Ahhhh it's an alien invasion." I just kept standing there calm as the ships crash-landed near me.
I then saw one of the aliens, but it didn't look as I expected "green with a big head." Instead it looked more predator type like, but not scary and not threatening and a different skin.

I remember that my last dream ended while I was typing on a black t-shirt "Trust me!", then I woke up. [/COLOR]

I'm in a hotel. I go over in another building for some reason (also like a hotel). I have red swim shorts on and a towel wrapped around me. I go up to the 6th floor in an elevator. I'm in like the "main room", there are a lot of things there. I think there was like some mail service, and there was a shower. I go back to my hotel, and back to the other building. My mom comes with me to the 7th floor looking for the main room, but I forgot it was on the 6th. There are like 13 floors. My mom isn't with me anymore. I press ground floor I think, and someone else in the elevator presses 13. It goes up really fast, and down really fast. Scarily fast, as if there was something wrong.

Sometime later.

I have to open something with a hotel key. I don't have mine, or even one for this building. I wave my hand over the top, and it shows green but doesn't open. I do it again, and it does open.

I'm back in the elevator with Michael and some other mom. She tells us that her boys will be getting on soon, so we need to find the best place to hide when they get in there (?) There is no where. It's just an elevator. I look up and there are like water pipes, except they look really fragile. Michael jumps, as if to climb up there. The water turns on =.= Woke up.

I was sneaking up behind an argonian male who was dragging an alligator to the sewers. The argonian went through a door, let the alligator stay on the other side of the door and then locked the door with two locks. When I knew he was gone, I opened the door so that the alligator should go in there and eat him. But the alligator was more interested in following me, so I walked away.

I did it again. I had another full LD. A bit of good news too. In this LD, I remembered to try what some people on DV suggested. Um... I tried to imagine myself in a grass field, but it didn't work... More of a good thing though, My physical strength increased in the dream a bit. I was able to lift my arm completely off the bed. I don't know why I did it, but who cares, it worked. LOL Still progress. I think I'm getting physically stronger in my LD's now. (And I looked up the LD terms, and the LD's that I've been having are WILDs) o.o

Ok now about the actual dream... I was in a bedroom again... only this time, it actually kinda did look like my bedroom, except everything in the room was rearranged. The windows, the TV, the stereo. All of them were in different locations, and it was actually kinda bright in the room this time too.

I'm getting better at these already

Something odd happened last night. I don't know whether it counted as a 'ludic' or not, mainly because it happened the second I fell asleep. I remember tossing and turning a lot because it was a hot night, but once I settled down, this dream popped into my brain immediately.

I was standing on a cliff overlooking some sort of tropical forest, and I saw a few creatures in front of me.

I immediately recognised them as Leavanny, and I became certain that I was dreaming. Sure enough, I actually tried the poke-through-the-palm and it went straight through with no pain or sensation at all!
The Pokemon started attaching large leaves onto their forearms and jumping off the cliff, using them as wings (incidentally, this is not something that Leavanny can normally do!) I decided that I wanted to try doing this too, so I grabbed a pair of enormous leaves and held them...somehow...to my arms.

I think I jumped off the cliff, I'm not sure. In any case, I didn't get the chance to see if I could fly. The dream crashed and I sunk into a relatively dreamless and completely non-lucid sleep for the rest of the night.

Alright..Here we go about a little nightmare-ish dream I had a few days ago.(As I said, it was a few days ago, so it is a little patchy, bear with me)

The first thing I see is this normal living room, in a nice house, in the country. The room was cool, had large front windows, except one thing: It was empty. I was standing in the middle of what I can already sense was a real old, huge house. I start hearing conversations with my mom about the house being a beautiful house, that we obviously just moved in, there were some stuff there left by the previous owner(whatever happened to them, I am scared to know...), the house was welcoming, but it didn't sit right with me. As I go looking about the home(Which was not but 3 rooms that I saw), I got more and more story about that house. The stories were unintelligible, I couldn't make out/remember what was being said, but I thought I heard a rumor about a haunting in it, maybe that's where I got the creepy feeling. Next thing I remember is it skipped a few days, and I ended up in this giant room upstairs that looks like a catholic cathedral. The issue with this room, was it was almost 100% dark, no lights. The only lights in here were light seeping in from nearby bedrooms and dim light from other invisible sources. It was enough to see barely forward, but it was pitch black at the roof.
The cathedral was beautiful, but so empty, it felt sad instead of joyful. In the center was a sink(Probably supposed to be an alter, now that I think about it) with about 3 really old china, that needed a wash. I was elected to clean them, and I was pretty much alone anyway at this point. I didn't feel threatened per se, but it was definitely creepy, as it was dark. The realtor told me as she left the room that there were these two figurines on the sink, to the right. She said if these ever, EVER look away from each other, that it would be very bad.
I stare at them the whole time I wash the dishes, and I feel more and more creeped out by them. I guess they reminded me of Weeping Angels from Doctor Who as if you stop looking at them, they move. I finished the dishes, looked away for a sec at the doorway(there were two, one went to bedroom(s), the other I have no clue), when I looked back I tripped, when I got back up the statues were looking toward me at an angle, not in a threatening way, they had no expression, but I knew I was in deep trouble. I must have bumped the sink platform thing as I tripped.
I get so filled with fear that something might happen that I start walking out, but just then, I fall over crippled with a full body numbness(I assume sleep paralysis in real life?). It lasts a few seconds, then I get over it. I run out of that cathedral, and fall in the hallway outside that had two bedrooms there. I hear the loudest, creepiest sound from the bedroom, and I can't get back up. I anticipate the worst. What comes out is this wind-up toy(You know like the little robots?) that looked like a train with a demon/dragon(couldn't tell) face on it. It reminded me of a bug as it slithered toward me, but I run down the stairs, and straight into the living room. Here I tell mom about what happened, just as another comes behind me. I stomp on it and throw it out the window, but another one is on the window. Now I fear it is a full-blown infestation. We somehow skip the night, and I go outside, screw this creepy as hell house.
What I see outside is a fresh, August, Saturday morning. What does it look like? Hundreds of tall thin trees with no leaves. It appears to be the fall season, late August maybe, and makes me even more creeped out. I ask how we leave, and I am told by helicopter. I am thinking "Okay, then we will just call them to take us away from here!". Yeah right..It is a Saturday, they refuse to fly to us on the weekends. We are trapped here. I hear a river, and I decide "Lets go to it." I forgot to mention, my bro was there with my mom in the living room the whole time in the dream. Now as we are all outside this house, the house feels like it was never there. It was a bad memory, but I never look back to see if it was still there. We find the river, and here is the sight: There is a canoe, overturned, by some boulders to the left, across the embankment(it was about 40 feet across, from where we were, to the other side), there was an American flag to the right on our side, and to me that was a good sign, at least we are in America. I climb a tree, well lets be honest, I found myself atop a tree after making the decision to be up it, and saw we were trapped on a remote island. There was no other island in sight, we were on a pretty big island, with obviously the only thing on it what I already described. I figured the canoe was our only option to do at least something. (I am now on the ground, next to mom and bro)I say "Hey, I can levitate, I will fly to the other side, get the canoe, and bring it back. I will get it to you, and we can all ride in it."
I jump into the air, and get about 5 feet until I start getting blown by the winds. I am going higher higher, lower, left, right, any direction. The wind came out of nowhere, affected only me, and I was hopeless. I finally will myself to be near the flag, I grab onto it, pull myself closer to the pole, then force myself down, shimmying to the ground. I touch ground and say, "I am never doing that again, I guess we are trapped."
The dream promptly ended.

Well, that's about it for my first dream here, I have had a few in the past, but I thought I'd share this one. It was entirely non-lucid, not entirely vivid(I couldn't feel anything aside from the flag(barely), and the numbness in the cathedral room.) but it was pretty memorable, I gotta say. This happened about a week ago, and has been on my mind ever since. It was not a nightmare, but was pretty freaky/creepy. I never had sweats, shaking, fast heartbeat, or quick awakening when I woke up.
By the way, the floating thing is a recurring theme in my dreams, which I hope to turn into a dream sign. When it happens, it happens in almost all my dreams, it is usually as I leave a building or van, I just levitate into the air, sometimes I can control it, most of the time I cannot. I try going upside down, sideways, doing different hand motions, etc to get back down..It can be scary, as I turn upside-down trying to grab a hand or roof or something to grab onto, but I am too slow and drift into the sky. Perhaps one day I can make it to automatically signal lucidity.
