My family and I were getting ready for the upcoming wedding of a family member (note: this wedding is upcoming IRL). My sister and I were trying to get dressed and pack our purses. I was in a state of stress because nothing was going well. I couldn't find my cell phone, my hair was unruly. For some reason, I was desperately scooping up potato chips and dip on the floor into a bag, as they were some kind of joke my sister had set up. I eventually found my phone, but it was low on power - how could I navigate to the venue without GPS in my car? Fortunately, a shared shuttle that looked like a cable car and contained some of my relatives stopped by, and we boarded.

Later in (I think) the same dream, I was in my grandparents' house in a room with many beds. This is the same house my cousins and I would stay in when we were little. As an adult in the dream, I was much too large for my "bed," which was little more than a doll's wooden rocking crib. I woke up (from one dream) in this bed, and realized I'd split it in two. My cousin's weren't impressed.

I stood up from the bed and realized I was dreaming. I hadn't performed a reality check of any sort. It just occurred to me that this wasn't reality. Once I realized it was a dream, the world spun and I did circles in place to stay asleep. It worked, and I continued with a few reality checks. First, I looked at my wedding band. It was there, and the metal wasn't shifting (my typical reality check), but I realized it was thinner in the dream than IRL. I wondered if it was actually a poor reality check after all and noted that I should think about it once awake.

Next, I decided to fly, since I'd been having trouble doing so. I used the advice in the forums and simply assumed I could take to the air. And I did - for a moment, but then had trouble and started merely hovering. Boo.

Some kind of demon or monster came up at this point and grabbed me. I told it to get lost, since this was a *lucid* dream, and if I couldn't even keep monsters at bay then I utterly sucked at lucid dreaming. The monster wasn't particularly scary, but he grabbed me and I was in a pool of water, so it was difficult to spin in place to keep the dream going. I managed to free myself and spin.

I started thinking about the artistic possibility of this lucid dream, and my thoughts became temporarily lost in books I'd read, like the Wheel of Time series. I was in a long building with a high ceiling, and suddenly looked up. A beautiful, animated lightshow was happening on the ceiling. The entire surface seemed pixelated - made of blueish metal squares. But in clumps and shapes, rainbow-colored groups of pixels were bulging and sliding like a bioluminescent mushroom, sending waves of color through the whole ceiling. I watched the show for a moment, wondering how "surprises" and new images are conjured up in a dream that I'm aware of.

After I'd looked long enough at the ceiling, I decided to try and improve my dream control. I decided to create the simplest of environments - a blue sky and black ground - to practice flying in. This environment started to come into view, but I struggled to sustain it, and eventually "woke up" into (I believe) another dream, in which I didn't realize was lucid and didn't remember.

I am with Jessica and we are at a baseball game looking for our seats, although it felt more like we were walking around inside of Costco. We are holding hands and walking with one another like we once did in waking life. We try to ask for help by showing our ticket to someone who works there, but it was no help. I try to bribe one of the workers to get us good seats by offering him a $20 bill. He is interested, but he could not deliver.

The scenery changes and I am somewhere in the outdoors, like in a clearing in a forest. Jessica is in the scene but away from me. There are also now many more people. We are arranged in a big circle like a carousel, and Jessica is directly across the circle from me with her friend (Ellen?). Though I am facing straight at her, she is in the furthest position from me. Every one in the circle has a rope/branch they are holding on to that reaches into the sky and and appears to converge in the center, but does not seem to be connected to anything. The circle begins to spin and we are lifted airborne by holding onto the branch. This is similar to one of those rides at the carnival that spin around in circles.

As we are spinning, my attention is focused on Jessica, who is directly across the circle from me. Directly next to me are some attractive girls. As we are spinning on this "ride" the girl next to me puts her legs around me and kisses my chest in a flirtatious kind of way. I enjoyed this but I notice that Jessica begins to get upset from seeing this. In this dream, she is still my girlfriend.

I felt the intimacy and protectiveness that I had not experienced in a long time. The dream gave me a sense of nostalgia and made me miss my ex girlfriend.

Dreamt Monday 1/9/12. I only remember fragments

I had a group of sea animals as friends. I could talk to them. But, somehow, someone stole my seal. He was a harp seal, speckled and fat. He was just an adolescent, shifting from a white fluffy infant into a slick, black adult. Someone wanted him for his pelt. I was panicked, trying to find him. I knew what demise he would meet if I couldn't save him.

--

I was in the ship with him-- my spirit, not my body. It was filled with ice to keep him comfortable. My other sea creature friends had found him. There was a large whale beneath the ship. He vowed to save my seal. He rammed the freighter with his powerful body. Part of the hull burst and water came crashing in. My seal just sat there, waiting for the ship to sink so he could escape. Somehow I could communicate telepathically with my sea creature friends and I told the whale to not let the ship sink completely, because I didn't know where they were. To bring the ship into port so I could save my seal.

I got into my car and drove to the nearest port. I "knew" it was Alaska or Canada-- the Northern area. I acted like I was waiting for a shipment. One of the port workers began to question me and I indicated I was waiting for an oil shipment.

My whale friend let me know he was close. In my mind, I saw my seal pup frolicking in the ship. I knew the whale was carrying the half-sunken ship on his back into the port. However, for some reason, I lost my connection with my friends at that moment. I frantically began to look around the port.

No ship came in. I was afraid. Worried. I couldn't contact my friends and I did not see the ship. The icy water was black and churning with malice. I could only imagine something had happened and my poor seal and his friends; downed by a loose wire or net on the sea floor by the port.

It had been quite awhile that I waited and I began to retreat to my vehicle. As I walked by a little docking section, I noticed some children laughing. I looked down and saw some adolescent seals playing in the water. I ran to the dock and searched the waters. I couldn't hear or call to my friend. Suddenly, I saw my seal. He was there!

I called out to him. He saw me and leapt up on to the dock. I began to sob uncontrollably as I hugged his icy, wet body. Most of his white fur had shed but he still had a thick, white line running diagonally across his forehead. This is how I recognized him. For some reason, I couldn't talk to him anymore telepathically, but that didn't matter. He was home.

Dreamt Saturday 1/7/12

It was morning. Still dark. It was cold. M and I were getting ready. The dogs were barking. I thought this was strange, since we lived on a dirt road. I saw headlights coming down the road. A car pulled in to our drive. There was a "Papa Johns" pizza sign on the car. I thought to myself, "They must be lost." I continued getting ready, curiously watching. M didn't seem concerned. I saw a man get out of the car (no more than a boy really) carrying a pizza bag. I held my breath and watched him walk to our front door. He didn't knock. He stood there. I was in the hall now, watching the door. I saw the knob turn. My stomach lurched. I whispered to M, "He's coming in..." In horror I slunk back in to the back room with M and we listened to the man creep into the house. I heard the car door open and shut and another set of feet on the gravel in the front.

It wasn't but 5 seconds until he found us, but it felt like an eternity of waiting. He had a maniacal grin on his face and he muttered to us, "You won't be leaving this house alive." Somehow I knew that the bag he held didn't contain a pizza pie, but instead tools to hack us to bits.

I immediately began searching for something to strike him with. I saw a younger woman enter the house as well. M had an axe in his hand and he began to fight with the man. I grabbed a lunge whip and hit the girl in the face. I was screaming at her; at them. When she went to scream back, I took the whip and shoved it in her mouth, then kept pushing until it was guided down her throat. She was choking and I was shoving her out of the house. M was closer to the door and I screamed for him. I ran out and started to climb up the side of the house toward the roof. The girl followed me. I turned around and rammed my right thumb into her eyeball. Blood spurt out and I just kept pushing as she screamed in a shrill voice of panic. I then kicked her down and started screaming for M to follow me.

He and the man were out in the yard. M held the axe, waiting for the stranger to take the first step. I started crying for help. "PLEASE! HELP US! WE'RE BEING ATTACKED! PLEASE HELP US!!!" Dawn was breaking and I looked at the neighbors' homes. They were quiet; peaceful. They looked like no one was home. I continued to panic. M finally knocked the strange man down with the axe, then clambered up on the roof beside me and we held off the would-be invaders from getting up on the roof.

--

Next thing I remember is the police pushing the two attackers into a police car. The neighbors were around us, asking if we were okay. I was dazed and confused. Uncle Les was there- he was telling me something. I can't remember what.

Last night was another variety of dreams. I first dreamed that it was a post apocolyptic world i think there were people hunting us. It kind of fluttered back and forth from that atmosphere to me being a bystandard in Star Wars Return of the Jedi.lol Dreams are gettting more memorable though, I am realizing that i almost always dream of things that i see during the previous day in extreme passing view. Nothing that i take more than a second to think about. only things that i happen to encounter and barely remember..hmm

I had barely any recollection of my dream when I woke up. All i remember was I was on campus at my school, and a new kid in 10th grade, TJ was there and he had crutches. I stole the crutches and started to hobble away through campus with them. I saw my friend Paul and looked over to see my friends Knox and Jake laughing at my crutches and then I woke up.

so i lay in bed listening to meditation sounds last night for around an hour, the when i turned off my MP3 player i began some WILD techniques and fell into a lucid even though this was a wild i did not notice i was dreaming as my dream began exactly where i hut SP. when i opened my eyes i was under the covers so i tried to pull these off my head but there was no end, i attempted the finger RC while i was lying there and just as i done it my fingers sprung away from each other. i kept changing the side i was lying on and got a bit fed up. as i started to think about waking up i also started thinking of spiders (i hate them) so i started paniking as i though "the more i think of them the chances are they will apear) so at this point i had a really big urge to wake up but couldnt. i knew i was lying in bed with my arm round my fiancee so i though i needed to shut my eyes shout her name and move frantically to get her attemtion, while i was moving the dream became really intense and i done the nose RC which worked, and i kept shouting her name, then i herd "Kev" so i shouted wake me up! she said kev again and my eyes opened. turns out i was lying in bed wrigling and moaning and she was woried so woke me up lol.

I am working at an industrial workstation in a large warehouse. There are pallet racks along the walls and each work station has some industrial shelving for storing supplies. I am working with another guy on some wireless electronics. One of the devices has an FM transmitter, but I find that I don’t have a radio at my work station to test it with. I walk over a couple of work stations to see if I can borrow a radio from one of the other guys.

Two workstations away, there are 3 guys cutting some large PVC pipe into short sections. I ask if I can borrow their radio, and one of the guys reaches to the shelf and hands me a small radio. As I am walking back to my work station a large forklift drives by, carrying a load of pickle jars. I step out of the way so he can turn the corner, then return to my work station. The other guy messes around with the radio for a bit, but it doesn’t seem to be working.

I leave my work station once again and go back to where the guys were cutting the pipe. Once I arrive, I find that they are trying to bolt a divider wall between two work stations, but the bolts are too short to reach through the metal and into the concrete anchor in the floor. I pick up a bolt and hold it beside the bracket to see that it is just a little short. I grab the bolt by the head in one hand. And grab the tip of the threaded end in the other hand. I pull at the bolt for a bit, trying to make it longer, but it refuses to increase in length.

(Note: I think that I may have achieved a low level of lucidity at the point where I attempted to stretch the bolt. I watched the bolt intently, waiting for the metal to stretch, but it never did. If I would have seen the smallest amount of change in the bolt, it is likely that I would have become fully lucid.)

I am walking into a large parking garage, trying to find my friend. I walk in from the street level, and then take the stairs down to the lower level. I find nothing on that level, not even a car. I walk up the stairs and check each level, walking over to the elevator shaft in the center, but the entire garage is empty. I go back to the lower level and sit on the steps and wait. After a moment, I lean against the railing and fall asleep.

Goals: Went to sleep wanting to have some continuity with the demon slaying dream I had, or see Kaomea. I spent most of yesterday thinking about my dreaming life more than my waking.

I remember being at some area and seeing BJ...it was the first time in forever. I don't think I've seen the guy since elementary, but we caught up briefly, and he was asking about what I was doing now a days and whens the last time I've seen x, y, and z. Then he asked me when was he going to get seen in the back.

I told him if we skipped him our doctor would probably get fired, and our rules is to bump anyone with an emergency up before the non-emergent people....ugh...freaking ER dreams.


I'm with D and we're at some warehouse...I remember walking barefoot all around this place. The area had water all over the ground and I was trying to avoid it. I don't know why I didn't have any shoes on, but there was a splattered rat on the ground that I wasn't sure if I stepped on or not. It also had tape worms in it.....ugh.


Now we're at some store, and we need two huge bags of pineapples and one case of them. I have no idea what for. We take them, and I end up talking to some kids in the gaming section. There's this one game that's compatible with a remote control race care. And someone tells me there's a tournament that's going to be held there. I told them I might make it, and left. D was contemplating filling up his car with reserve fuel he had strapped underneath his car. I told him to go ahead, because the stuff that's out now at the moment is higher. The other D didn't want him to do it.

I'm in a field...then I'm traveling around my block. I see some shrubs with onions growing on it. The people who live there have long moved out, but I tell myself not to grab them at the last second.

I'm at my house with D and J...we're talking about ownership of a pool table. I tell them a false memory that this one girl who I dated left it there for me...so it was technically mine. We started playing this fighting game. One character had something about "rainbows" on her shirt, and she was supposed to be a grappler with easier moves. I know she had a suplex, and some move where she removed the entrails out of the character. But everything was looking real cartoony.

As i'm already poor at recalling dreams (i literally remember one a month, since before starting lucid dreaming) i really want to change that and acheive this, I am putting all my effort into it and have researched the matter for some while now.

I have gained a lot of valuable information not only through this site but through others including videos on YouTube and sites similar to this.

I have my dream journal at my bedside with a pen, I have dream written on my hand. I have notes on my phone that go off every hour that say dream. I'm doing everything in my power to conquer this feat.

I'm hoping that by using this website it will allow me to continue to think about lucid dreaming which will in-turn, help me to lucid dream.

I don't know if i'm doing it right in all honesty, but this morning, i woke up (keeping my eyes shut and staying in my usual sleeping position, as instructed) and all i could think about was dragging a dead baby out of a bin or something along them lines. Weird, i know. But meh, i was happy to have at least have something on my mind whilst awakening. So i wrote it down.

After waiting a few minutes i left my bed and trundled down stairs. Then i remembered even more, words can't describe how happy i was to have actually remembered something. But all i remember was a lot of weed (marijuana) on the floor, all ground up. I can't remember any emotions, but it's almost like i'd dropped a load and it was on the floor, maybe at the bottom of some stairs.

Thinking about this, who's to say i didn't just make it up? The dead baby thing? When i woke up just to give myself some sort of satisfaction that i'm making progress. Either way, i'm quite happy with this. going from probably 2% dream recall to having one straight after i started teaching myself to lucid dream. It makes me excited to continue and i hope i accomplish what i've set out to do.

Lucid Dream Dream Non Dream

Good morning, everybody.

Dream #1

A voice saying, "Up from the depths." A view of a woman in some kind of white robes and head covering, carrying something and walking up a dark stairwell, up toward a lit doorway.

There were about 5-6 people around me. All of them were young and we were all good friends. I seemed to have a strong connection with a blonde guy. They were all talking about random unimportant stuff while the guy was staring at me. I liked the way he looked at me.

Suddenly, a girl ran around, trying to find something (long, brown hair, skinny). She said something about bleeding. A second later, her water broke.
She didn't know she was pregnant. I told her that it's possible to be pregnant without looking like your pregnant.
I walked away from them and wrote down my dream with green marker on transparent paper (without becoming lucid)
I returned to the group. They were now sitting at a long, white table. I saw the pregnant girl crying. I wanted to comfort her so I rubbed her back. I could feel her pain when I touched her.

We all teleported to a big cage. We sat on the ground. The blonde guy was smiling at me. I felt like leaning closer to him so I did. We almost kissed. Instead, he turned his head a little and breathed out in my mouth. It felt really good.
Someone opened the gate of the cage from the outside. He looked like a combination of a cowboy and a policeman.
He told us we had to follow him. I stepped out of the cage with the others and saw a machine coming our way. Something didn't feel right.
One of the guys yelled "It's a trap! Go back!". So we did. I thought there was a bomb outside of the cage but I wasn't sure. We ran to the back of the cage and the fear woke me up.

I have the single most lucid dream of my last 5 years,

I all starts i am seated in a foyer of a small cinema waiting for something but i didnt know what, i turn to my left and one of my work mates is sitting there but says nothing then out of the cinema itself walks another of my work mates but his father is with him, his father offers me a cigarette from a pouch but when i reach into the pouch its full of cannabis, next thing i know im walking into the cinema and i notice that the back two rows of seats are separated from the front by a red old-fashioned carpeted slope that is pretty steep.

At the edge of the back row nearest to me are two twenty something women in wheeled office chairs in my way, when i move toward them they part and let me through as i proceed down the slope i know at this point i am looking for someone but i dont know who or why, then i see her she is a blonde woman with blue eyes who turns and sees me the smile she greets me with stops me in my tracks cold, i felt a great warmth in my midriff and a tingling like just before you start on the first drop on a rollercoaster, its mesmerizing, it made me feel so happy to see her that i smile too, and we stand there like this for a short while, then i turn and try to climb up the slope but notice my feet have no purchase on the carpet.

It turns out i am wearing white socks and it is tough trying to get up the slope so i dig in with my fingers trying to haul my weight up this bloody slope all the while i still feel that inner warmth from her, who is she, is she some cliche from the depths of my imagination or was that stirring i felt so strongly for her real in some way, she was named gwen (not stefani (cliche)) as i am typing this i can still feel that gut sensation and its strong indeed, i dont know who she is but somewhere deep within my mind there is an atavistic knowledge that she is known powerfully by my being but how.

This is kinda weird if anyone cares to share similar themes of their unconscious weirdness

Relaxation, breathing, mantras. The following are probably the most out of the ordinary dreams I've had since I started this journal.

1. Can't remember this one. But I'm positive I remembered it at some point, since I tried to recall both the first and the second dream.

2. Me, some girl and some boy are getting on our horses to get a Coca-Cola in a saloon on the hill. We're still small children (I'm 18 now and never ridden a big horse either).
So we arrive at the saloon and the barkeep starts pouring the first Coke for my friend, I really feel like drinking one too. But I realise I didn't bring (enough) money. So they're looking at me, sipping their drinks. I decide to go back and fetch my money. But my friends tell me not to, since there are a couple of evil men on their horses outside, waiting to rob children riding solo through the land. Across the street I see a beer brewery, it has a sign with the name on it. There's a man and a woman. The man says something about getting something fixed, so he can start his brew again. He has the first batch in a glass already: a yellowish, troubly drink with a tiny foam layer on top. I really feel like trying one.

3. I'm standing on top of a skate ramp with someone else (maybe my brother - it's someone small, that I feel I need to protect so they're standing behind me). The ramp is a mix between a half pipe and curved slide. I believe at some point it even seemed to have that red glossy look. Some person (who seems to be my buddy) is going back and forth on the ramp trying to make speed. Every time he turns in the corners, it makes a squeeky sound. I see we are surrounded by woods, so I tell him to do whatever he wants faster, before some animal shows up. After I mention this, sure enough, a little deer shows up. He is poking his head through the bushes along the side of the ramp. My friend says he will "fix it" and he goes into the woods. He comes back with a bear , the deer gets scared and starts to charge towards me. It's trying to hit me with it's goatlike horns while I try to grab them.

Really fun dreams actually. The scenery was much stronger than usual and I'm on my way to remembering 2+ dreams! Let's hope it keeps evolving like this.
