Yesterdays dreams I forgot the content of the first dream, did not jot down while it was fresh. --- amazon warehouse I was in the states I think. I was inside a large building that looked like customs office. It was much larger though and as I explored it, I enter an elevator to the lowest level. When I left the elevator I found myself in an underground facility that was storing stuff. Stuff like products and this to me was an warehouse for storing merchandise. It gave me the impression that it was the warehouse of amazon. I do recall being with some friends here, we were here on a field trip or some sort of setting like that. I was in a room with boxes of what appeared to be opened merchandises. Basically returned items or damaged goods. A lady there sells me one of the things there for 22 dollars. I buy it but what do you know it was pretty damaged. I went to the bathroom at the end of the dream, or had a desire to do so within the dream. ---- blinking in univ building This was like a continuation of the last dream but not exactly the same location. I was in a massively rectangular building that was made up of brown bricks on the outside. It gave an impression that it was built a long ago. The building was to me what seemed to be like an education related place. I think it was probably an university or a scientific research center. I am the warden. I think I am warden because I played warcraft the previous night. I was exploring the building and something happens. I forgot exactly what, but I eventually get to a some sort of conference room or something. It was like a meetup of the professors and the star students. I felt out of place as they were dressed in formal attire but I was suited for battle haha. I leave the place. I feel like I'm being tailed by someone from behind to I decided to teleport. I teleport short distances this time. By looking at somewhere in the distance I pinpoint somewhere I want to teleport to then I blink, close my eyes then I am there immediately. I repeat this process about 10-12 times. I keep exploring the building and end up in a narrower section of the building. It's a single narrow hall/corridor with the left side that gave sight the outdoors via the large connected windows. I feel like I wanted to go bathroom around here so I do. It was a massive bathroom really. I think from what I could see, ther were enough stalls for 100-200 people to poop at the same time. I looked for an empty stall in somewhere quiet but there were people everywhere. So I decided to head deeper into the bathroom and it was like a maze. There's like a hoard of kids assembled like a train going through the bathroom. I can't get past them so I head towards the direction they were going, in front of them. I see someone and a kid, I forget maybe the adult here was his mom or something. But this child is blocking the way and I'm almost about to give up going through this path when he leaves. I go past the narrow space he was blocking. At this point I gave up on pooing. I am outside the bathroom and keep walking down the hall. I meet some chubby girl who was a fan. I hanged out with her for a bit as I kept forward the direction I was heading. I was getting close to the other side of the building when her friends show up. They were kind of mean to her so I help her out. In a moment a buff sweaty black guy shows up. I forget why he showed up but apparently he was an enemy. I didn't feel like dealing with him because he was so sweaty but he came at me regardless. I decided to stop him before he landed his attack and I decided to do this with an ice magic. He becomes white with ice outside in, and becomes frozen solid. We leave him be. We finally left the building. I think the total walking distance was maybe 2km? 4km? maybe even 8? I'm not really sure, but it was pretty long regardless. Outside of the building there's a small building far into the distance. It's like a souvenir shop and I decided to go with the people- the girl and her friends from earlier. I look around and there's some pretty interesting clothes there. I'm not sure exactly what it's called but it's that thing Wim Hof wares that's like a thick sheet with a hole in the middle for your head; like that old fashioned thing that you wrap around and you wear in the old west movies or old fashioned mexican cape that goes all around you. But anyways this cape was dark green and dark blue. It looked very cool. 22$ they said. I decided to get it and I wear it. --- Forgotten dream, did not write --- game overheating phone I was playing a game on the phone. It was in 3d? But the phone was overheating and stuff like it was real. I thought maybe it would look better projected on a VR headset or something. So it was projected on a monitor/TV. -- failed/short ap I was awake on the bed and I had an uneasy feeling. I thought I'd deal with the uneasy feeling rather than letting the feeling take control. I just told myself that "you like this" feeling and tried to play it positively. I did so and just relax and I start to get the vibrations. It gets stronger and I wasn't really prepared but thought about rolling while I focused on the vibe. I rolled out and my vision was black fuzz and static, like TV static but all black/grey without the white dots. I managed to roll out but of the bed but I was pulled back. Notes: I helped a stranger out and they randomly decided to give me some pot today. Legal here so I thought why not. Still recalled dreams. Perhaps slightly harder to focus but that was overcome with meditation. Did help me relax and sleep I guess. Thought about goals in life. --- Today's counting I was trying out WILD counting technique. I was getting hypnogogics after a bit and went up to around 330. Around 330 or so I began to enter into a dream. I saw my right arm reaching out and there was like a snake that tried to go for my arm. It startled me and I moved my arm upwards and this moved my arm and I awoke. ---- undercover I was a kind of undercover in what felt like a story about an undercover/killer movie. There were some questioning going on just like a mystery movie. --- dinner party I went to a dinner party or sort just to eat. Perhaps this dream is initiated by thoughts regarding it. --- superhot perhaps continueing the previous dream, I am in that menu area of superhot VR. I see two floppy disks and I read one of them labelled "endless" --- Sleeping Inosuke I was inside a classroom. We were studying a sort of advanced mathematics and I recall that I didn't enjoy the class. I think perhaps this is a residual memory of geometry. I remember that I excelled in calculus and algebra but geometry was my weakness. I leave the classroom to play hooky. I head into the classroom to the right. Now that I visualize the scene back then it does indeed feel like it's structured like the japanese school, so maybe it's there. I think it's the second floor, near the stairs to the right side. The classroom here is empty and it's like a science room here but it's mostly empty and cleared out in the middle. I find a cartoon character Inosuke and a girl there, not sure who she was though. So the 3 of us decided to nap in this room since it was empty. I tell the other 2 to grab the sheets and cuddle up to we can be warmer. We do that and just sleep together on the ground all huddled up. -I think I was tired so I also wanted to sleep inside the dream too. We slept, awoke and slept a few more times. Until some students began to swarm inside the building. My 2 sleep-friends leave immediately but I had some stuff I needed to pack up into my backpack. This gives me a feeling of frustration, likely bled out from previous memory. The class is about to begin and they began chemistry class. The teacher there looked like my mom. I think she looked slightly different? ---- treasure quiz It was a quiz show where you'd answer questions it would reveal a location to a secret treasure. Aye matey! I recall there being divination and fortune telling being used to locate treasures. --- Notes: Things I think are important: -DJ -MILD -shadow work -ADA/Mindful -Nutrition (2eggs+olive oil) I did not WBTB today. I awoke but I just felt like I wanted to get some good rest. Maybe could have focused on DEILD here. I do think that the counting would have continued into a WILD if I didn't get startled by the snake. I felt like it was going to coil around my arm, kind of like the wheel armlet from before, a living lucid accesory - LLA! I wrote down some goals and actions I could take. I just wrote stuff for a bit. One of the goals, omnilucid, after exploring my thoughts, narrowed down to the 5 stuff above as what I felt as most critical I guess.
After about a long dry spell, I had a lucid dream this morning AND I found my dream character. We embraced because I just couldn't believe it actually worked after so long a dry spell. I used MILD. The key to it that there needs to be a strong link between the mnemonic and the thing I want to remember. In this case, I noticed that school is recurring setting in my dreams. Thus, I spent a good portion of yesterday creating a very strong link between school and my intention to find my dream character. It's not the mantra or visualization that causes a lucid dream. It's the prospective memory and the link between the intention and the mnemonic. Visualization + mantra is only to strengthen that link such that it will even work while in unconscious REM sleep.
I am with Melissa at Burning Man. I’m sure it is Burning Man, but it doesn’t really feel all that far away from anything. In fact, we seem to be right by a freeway overpass. It seems like we are among the first here. We are filtering into a small building or canvas tent with couch like seating. I watch everyone arrive, all in the same, generic Burning Man garb. I do notice a shorter guy with thick and curly brown hair wearing a Grateful Dead shirt. I think it’s brown or brown tie dye with a large print of ‘Bertha’ on it. I think that he might possibly be interesting to talk to or that it could just be a fashion statement. I then realize that no one is really doing anything except sitting around just like they could anywhere else. I wonder if this is it - to just come here to sit and watch everyone else do the same. We are now trying to leave; there are a few exits, but they are all also being used as entrances for a mass of people heading this way. We try to go against the grain bt it proves impossible so we submit to it and veer off to our left. This brings us much closer to the overpass. There are crowds everywhere, but I notice a bunch of arms sticking up in the crowd under the overpass, waving, beckoning us to go over there, as if they see us fighting the flow of people. So we oblige and go over there. Over there, the space between the ground and the overpass is much smaller, probably only big enough for a kid. In fact, that is who is under there. There are different sections, each with school aged kids (mostly girls?) sitting in a circle or just along the wall. In the middle of each group is an adult laying on their back, eyes closed. They are conducting some ‘alien experience’? and beckoning us to come try it. I’m uneasy from my first glance at it; it looks creepy and I don’t like it. I make a comment to Melissa about how creepy it is and how we’re not doing that.
I am with Melissa in what seems like a mountainous area. We are in a cabin type building that feels like it’s on the edge of a gorge or some precipice. There is some event going on just outside the other doors that I think we’re a little late to. There is a cabinet for us to put our phones in, I think because there are no photos allowed. I place mine among the others, all screen up, as well as my glasses case? I feel my keys in my pocket, but decide they’re fine since they’re clipped to a belt loop with a carabiner. We step outside now and there are quite a few people, maybe our age or younger, sitting around on the rocky and uneven ground. They are all wearing puffy grey/blue coats that seem to be uniform, possibly with the same logo or team name. I realize that this is some sort of outdoor survival challenge and that I am wildly unprepared and they obviously are not. Melissa is in regular clothes and I am in a tie dye Grateful Dead shirt. It now starts, I think with a race.
I am at the lake (Tahoe, I’m pretty sure) with some family, I think Granny and Mom and maybe Makayla. We are at a beach that is not sandy, but more rocks and pine needles. There is also a fair amount of trees coming down all the way to the waterline. I have some clothes that I think have just been washed, because they are still damp. I am looking for a clothesline or even a string, but I don’t find anything. Now I’m at work with either Melissa or Laynie, still looking for a clothesline. We can’t find one anywhere, until we ask Carolina. She takes us to a stockroom, it being the only place she can think of that would have one. Sure enough, we look to the right and I see some green lines hanging from a hook near the ceiling. I tug on one, not sure how to get it down. I flick it a bit, and it comes off the hook. They look somewhat surprised, and I joke about not knowing how I just did that. Though the line had reached near the top of the high ceiling, it is barely even a foot long as I am holding it up I’m just slightly disappointed. I guess I’ve settled though, as I’m back on the beach. I’m walking back to our spot and noticing towels and clothes simply draped over the lower tree branches. I think it occurs to me that I could’ve just done this, but I seem pretty set on the clothesline.
I am at work when I notice about three pre-teen/teen kids run out of one of the doors (*it looks like the kids doors at work). They all have merchandise and are wearing backpacks. I think I am seeing this on video, so I am able to zoom in really quick. After I decide that it does look bad, I hurry out there. I step outside and think I see them get into a bus or school bus. They are not really in a hurry and neither is the bus it seems. After a few moments, I head back inside and sit back down. Charmi is here, sitting down at the cameras also (it doesn’t really look like we’re in a camera room, but more out in the open). She’s talking about what just happened, suggesting that it could have been prevented if we were watching. I say that we were watching but that we can’t be seeing everything at all times. She just seems adamant and repeats herself. Scott now shows up and nonchalantly starts talking to me (and Laynie might be here?). Charmi looks up, sees him, looks a little shocked, but doesn’t say anything. Scott just pretends like she’s not here. Scott and I are now walking somewhere in the store - upstairs, I think. He is wearing a blue beret tilted slightly downwards and something else he wouldn’t usually wear. I notice him walking through the racks of clothes instead of on the main aisles. I wonder why for a second but then realize he’s trying not to be seen by associates.i get it, but also think it’s a little much.
I am with Mom in what looks like a small, one main road mountain town. Across the street, I notice a large group of skiers, apparently waiting for a bus. The bus appears but then passes them by. Confused, they try to flag it down. I survey their winter clothes, thinking they’re wearing too much. It doesn’t feel cold at all to me, but I guess it makes sense for when they’re actually skiing. I think about how it’s only the first day of September, so this has to be the very first snowfall and/or day of the season. We’re in one of these wooden cabin type buildings that looks pretty empty when I feel the ground shake softly but consistently. I’m certain it’s an earthquake and wait for it to happen again. It happens again, this time more intensely, so I make my way outside. I notice others coming outside, some looking panicked. Mom mentions how of course we’re in Portland, guiding my attention to the snow-covered mountain right above us. I see some watching the mountain to see if it’ll avalanche. I wonder what we would do if it did.
I fell asleep with a bit of tension in my mind . I became lucid at this oddly constructed bus . I was sitting there looking out a window and then suddenly I realized that a woman was sitting tightly behind me with her kid. I cursed at her with a scottish accent (thank you limmy) then I asked the dream to transport me where I should be then I suddenly woke up. Or I thought so. To my suprise my cousin was standing by my bed watching me menacingly, he was saying something I didn't understand, then my vision gut blurry and all, I was in sleep paralysis so i felt like I could barely move or move my face but i stumbled out of bed partially paralyzed. I knew it was not him, I thought I'm being burglarized by someone who I hallucinated to be my cousin. He then went out and I heard noises like if things are being packed . I tried to stand up and look at him while repeatedly asking who he is... Aand then I woke up for real, realizing none of it was real.
Life of stars --- advanced fights, people shooting and dying. Bodies got fused together. Demon women were feeding on humans. -- In Japanese style castle renovated as a mall. Top floor had a small casino. I played the slots and won. Went to covert token to cash. Stopped by a lady with glasses. She thought I cheated. Claimed some prize for now. I head towards a different place with books. Finds a girl who was reading there and we talk and get along. She also had troubles with the lady prior. We were talking the the previous woman throws something us at an incredible speed. I reflexively blocked it with something in my hand. It was about 3 ninja stars. They were black, steal or iron. Likely tempered at low Temps to reduce cracking while sacrificing hardness. The stars I held in my hand to block with were all bent sideways around the triangle blades. What she threw at me was something like a thick knife. It was silver in color and 1 or 2 inches wide. What massive strength. Our attacker was trying to stop us from digging further about the establishment and was trying to kill us. I tell the book girl to run. She does so to my left. We cover a small distance before she was hit with the silver throwing knife and it struck her in the abdomen, creating a sizable hole that was moist and spreading with scarlet liquid. Immediately carry her and jump down the balcony. The building was Square and the whole outer square was surrounded by a balcony on each layer. So I jump down one floor to the one below and ran towards the inside of the building and we were still chased. I jump down another floor and do the same. Around the third time I think that it would use good to jump multiple floors now as I've put a small pattern in her head that though we were jumping then running around. I jumped down all the floors one by one until I got to the bottom. On the asphalt ground now I fled with the girl. I wanted her to live. I must! I ran but we were now chased by a miniature racing car that had the attacker from earlier now she had transformed into full demon. I attack the round glass drivers window before we crashed. There was now an ambulance here and I rode it with the girl, hoping she'd be saved. -- We changed the scenes but the plot continued. I was by my lonesome now and I was in an open field with tents. It was some kind of outdoor event like a concert or hippie festival. Now I was out to crush the organization behind the previous dream. They were a cult that were up to no good and their eyes were everywhere. Even here. A couple of them follows me and I notices this. I head into one of the larger tents with a store or something inside. They were also there. X was there, he was one of the members as well. He said that they would get me and began to attack me. I jumped on top of him and he aimed his fingers at my eyes. Before he could reach me I gouged both his eyes, a distinct muffled popping sound. He still was laughing and said that he would kill me as long as he was alive and as he went to attack, I grabbed the gun on his waist and popped the 2 shots into both of the family jewels. I noticed the cult members surrounding me so I head out the tent to the left entrance. There were other cultists outside still... I morphed my body and my gender and they lost track of me. I morphed likened upon a small plant, imps were aroud me describing my current features. Notes: I was running. Am I running from my dreams? Is that what the nightmare is telling me? I'm scared. But what am I really afraid of? I did some digging. It was I guess.. Fear of feeling being not good enough.
Jamie This dream was a little turn from how she's usually been lately. Just a dream at her house where I am trying to talk to her but she's painfully pretending I don't exist... What did I do now? Pennywise After Seeing "It," in theatres and taking to the audio books I had two related dreams... first is seeing a big white wall Pennywise is there with big red balloons which I don't really find scary. Two days later it's the same dream but he's taunting me about Jamie... implying he may have captured her dream self or something, Which I don't particularly believe... Other non lucids I had some vivid ones but they are fading... First is of being in a room and cuddling some girl in bed, but she's a character from 13 reasons why... We both realize that we don't really like eachother and I leave. Which leads to a scene of her me and a bunch of other kids jumping into a lake from a high water fall. some dream with my brother in it. He takes me to some homosexual bathhouse... I'm disturbed and don't want to go. He tells me to buy a locker or something and i see a guy with a big beard at the desk. I'm still grossed out so I leave the place.
Morning of October 6, 2019. Sunday. Dream #: 19,284-04. Reading time: 1 min 40 sec. Induction: I am sitting in an armchair wearing headphones in an unknown residence. The room is not well-lit. I listen to various vocal sounds on a tape playing in a cassette deck to my left, some that are partial affirmations related to dreaming, though there is the usual gibberish. I do not maintain full dream state awareness (though my perception remains instinctual, as the processes are the same, lucid or not). I see many maidenhair ferns in small plant pots. It is a beautiful tranquil sight. I feel I am where I should be. I notice it now seems to be late morning. Wall mediation with a vestibular precursor: I see a shadow at the glass-paneled door. It seems to be an uninvited ninja who has a crowbar that soon emerges between the door and door frame. I suspect this may relate to the cassette I am listening to, so I pull the jack from the cassette deck and remove my headphones. As I do, the door makes a light shutting sound, and there is no ninja. (Pulling a jack from a stereo is the opposite of what I typically do in dreams to vivify and sustain cortical arousal. In addition to a typical preconscious personification, the ninja is a vestibular simulacrum, which transitions into flight autosymbolism in the next scene.) More wall mediation and vestibular processing: I turn about to see a winter forest setting beyond an open wall. I enjoy the beauty of the scene as the snowflakes strike my face. The time has changed again, and it now seems early evening. A jet flies overhead (unrealistically slow). I see its shadow rise on the trunk of a tree, and I lift my arms to mimic the shape. I am unsure if they are searching for the ninja or me. I decide to take to the sky and become one with the jet to gain control of the whole region. (I fly vertically straight up.) The tree with the rising shadow of the jet is a process whereby the tree is a representation of how my physical body does not move while I am sleeping. The flight association is the precursor to vestibular arousal. Rather than the drop, I fly up and out of my dream as I have many times since childhood. Vehicles of any kind (including aircraft) are typically a result of the imaginary physicality of the dream state, each having specific nuances and associations with different levels of muscularity and anticipation of the drop.
Frusterating warcraft I forget the earlier part of the dream I feel like I was in an apartment , the in downtown with a pool. It was around 4-5pm and I was bored in the dream. I had some time to kill so I decided to play some warcraft 3. I was playing elf against an orc. What was special about this time was that it was more vivid and realistic than before. As the other times it was more of me watching, this time I was playing it and I felt the frustrations while playing the game. It was the old fashioned orc style with Bm. I was pretty annoyed as he sniped my wisps and stuff. I had a DH first and warden second. Sh, she died but the DH did manage to kill the BM in the end and he got level 5!. Maybe I had a chance after all as I skilled the evasion level 3. I think I dreamt about this because I haven't played this game in a while. I wanted to play it the night before a little but the game just wouldn't boot. Lucid, meditations I was in some sort of an open space. Like an office or something. It was more of an open concept place rather than closed off. And the environment was pretty bright. I was lucid and remembered that I wanted to meditate for the whole dream if possible. I began to sit and meditate and closed my eyes... I was somewhere else when I opened my eyes. But wheer? Don't know, just meditate I awoke again in the dream and I was in something like a party, it looked like a wedding or similar since everyone was in formal wear. I was lucid so I sat and meditated again. I repeated this for about 5-6 times. Meditated in an apartment building once. I think maybe it was the same building as the previous dream. FA omnilucid class, THE KEY I FA into a classroom after I closed my eyes from meditation from last time. I am feeling the pressure to follow the dream plot or feeling a peer pressure sort of feeling and lose my lucidity. I was going around and looking for a piece of paper. A big white piece of paper. Perhaps I wanted it for writing down DJ, or perhaps it was for the school project we were working on. I am wandering around the classroom and meandering among the desks where classmates sat. I was initially at the back of the room, to the left. I was in that block of desks that clumped together to form a kind of a group for a group project. I walked up towards to the front of the class to the front left. I think I find my paper here. Someone in the class had lost their wallet and I was going around the class to help him find it. I looked at my wallet and it was green, and just like my wallet. I asked for others' wallets and theirs were also the same wallet. Perhaps this could help gotten me lucid. I found a wallet somewhere and find the brown guy who lost his wallet to the front right of the class. I gave him the wallet, he thanked me and I went back to my desk, the one to the front and left from earlier. I notice something in my hand. It was a KEY. A golden key. It was wide and metallic and I felt the heft of it in my hands. I thought "was this the key to omnilucidity?" as I caressed the key in my hands. Maybe this was a chance to get lucid. Anyways the teacher for this class shows and she beings playing a youtube video on the projector for us to watch. This video was a guide on omnilucidity lol. In the video a guy and 3 girls in a jacuzzi or a small pool. As the man spoke things like "become short" or something, the girls became short, and whatever he said would happen/manifest accordingly. The other tip according to the video was to swim every other day. The last tip was to wear an armlet that coiled around your arms. They said it would make you lucid. They looked like elongated wheels that coiled around your arms. I change my focal point and notice that I was already wearing these wheel armlets on each arm! Youtube Working out Now the dream was about a youtube reality show. It was about a guy who was changing his ways. He was doing weight lifting and working out and stuff. It was pretty interesting and I began to get attached to his character. One scene was like the pool in the house. The video became third person when I watched them. But the channel I was watching the show on ran out of episodes and the rest of the shows were segmented throughout different channels. Anji - demon guide A demon lady stood in front of me. She said she was a guide to help me and her name was Anji. Notes: The key: I felt something important about the key. I know it was related to lucidity but there was something else that kind of pieced together as I reflected upon it. There was a reoccurring lucid nightmare if you will, about a large old metal door. It was very heavy and very large. It would not budge an inch when I tried to push it, and it lacked a handle. I tried to go through it many times on different days but it didn't let me pass. Each time I was there it was pitch dark and I was scared, it instilled enormous fear inside me each time. Perhaps the key from today is the key to this door. What could be behind the door? Should probably find a better way to draw methinks.

The dream scene was this giant crowd of people looking at a stage and cheering. I look at the stage to see my buddy Moo up there and he's about to perform a cover performance of Logic, but before he starts he gets out this little ring box, gets on one knee, and proposes to his girlfriend. She flicks the ring up in the air and it lands on her finger and then they kiss as the crowd cheers. Then Moo starts rapping a song. The crowd is now a bunch of rows of seats on a plane but you can't really see the roof or the wings, it's just the seats and we're flying through the air low to the ground. I'm running up and down the aisles talking to various people. At some point there's an old lady on the plane that we think is psychic who sort of mutters to herself that the plane is going down. People catch wind so everyone goes back to their seats and buckles up. We look in the distance and we see this massive explosion going off. We're in the mountains now on some highway system and our plane tips over and is now this 18 wheeler turned on its side sliding down the highway. We're now in this factory and someone is explaining out loud that this is a gang in another country where you can come and go as you please. 1/5 of the time you're doing legal work and the rest is illegal stuff. The factory shifts and now it's some sort of water slide attraction but you can also put skewers of meet in the water slide and it'll go through to be cooked. I see my Dad going through the slide and he tells me to get in. I'm leaning over the stream of water trying to grab some skewers to throw them in with us but keep missing. The skewers hit this little catch thing hanging down that let the skewers in systematically. I see some other people riding through the system. At some point I'm on a beach with my buddy thomas. The idea is that we're at a festival walking somewhere. We see this girl who we think is a porn star. Thomas decides he wants to get a picture with her so he asks this random person to take a picture of them. The person takes the picture tells me to go stand with them too so I go to the other side of the girl and smile for the picture. Thomas is doing some quick movements jumping around the camera. I throw up a peace sign and the porn star does this weird symbol with her hands like she puts her wrists together and her fingers jut out diagonally. We get the picture and start walking away. We see some attractions and we notice there's this row of computer workers all dressed in bathing suits like it was some perk of the job that they could tan and work there.
Dog I was in the house that looked like #25. I had a dog and I was just hanging out with the dog for a while. I went up to the bedroom to lay down after a while and the dog tried to get on the bed. It had a generous amount of dirt and mud on it and I was a bit worried about the bed getting dirty. But I thought oh well and let it climb on the bed. Maybe A hint of awareness. Anyways the dog gets on the bed and it wasn't dirty any more. I just stay there for a bit and was there someone else on the bed? Maybe. After a while I decided to get off and the dog follows me. There's some kind of animal in a box and it's a rat! Or a mouse, a bit worried that the house is infested by rats. game center -> mma I was in some sort of an arcade mall. It had about 4 floors or something and the main entrance was one of those where there were no floors and the ceiling went way to the top. Not sure what to call that. Anyways I am going around it looking for people to play with. There were 2 black haired girls there and we began playing something. I got bored of it and went elsewhere. I went up the escalator to one of the upper floors and was transported to Japan. I think there was a desire to go there. A desire to eat! I met an old Japanese man with short white hair. He looked like a typical okinawan with very tan skin. He was running a food stall with many different kind of foods. He calls me over and hands me what he says is the best stuff at the moment - Seafood, that's in season. It was a large shrimp. Very large, almost lobster sized. It was shrimp sashimi basically and it had a lovely plump texture with slight sweetness of shrimp. I was in ecstasy, a foodgasm for sure. The perspective of the dream beings to shift now though. I begin to see it in a third person. I see a young man who was entering fights. Not sure exactly what kind. I'll just say it was MMA, because it was boxing at times, and wrestling at other times. I think it had mostly wrestling feel. He was winning his fights and things seems to be progressing smoothly. But then the girls from the previous arcade shows up. They wanted to sabotage him and his fighting conquest. They put him under sleep with anesthesia and took him to some back-alley surgeon. They operated him an gave him a plastic surgery. It was a breast augmentation or a pectoral muscle surgery. Just the chest looked bigger. He went into the next fight and still won though. This frustrated the chubby girl though. Notes: things to focus on while wake -be active -have/remember a goal -be aware (of actions) -eat stuff (2 eggs) Do this: Stop, listen, focus(breathe), remember.
Morning of October 5, 2019. Saturday. Dream #: 19,283-02. Reading time: 1 min 15 sec. I am in an unknown ambiguous setting with the common factor of indoor-outdoor ambiguity. The area is not well-lit. While it is implied to be outside, I also sense it is inside a big building with a high ceiling. The floor/ground is smooth. I am pulling a rope from a horizontally-oriented reel on a buckboard wagon. I vividly feel the movements and sensations in my arms as I pull the rope. The wooden vehicle is at least six feet away (facing away), and the reel, its width nearly that of the wagon, is under the seat. The rope is coming from up and behind the reel. I am guiding the rope at about waist-level to an unfamiliar man who is standing about six feet beyond a cattle fence. He, in turn, is guiding the rope to an unseen man farther away (whom I sense may be sitting or lying down). I am unaware of a backstory that might explain why I am here. Eventually, the end of the rope prevents farther pulling as it is attached to the reel. The unseen man is my potential emerging consciousness. The man I am guiding the rope to is my preconscious (the personification of my reticular activating system and vestibular cortex) though here as a subliminally summoned vestibular witness (for correlation and potential coalescence). The buckboard wagon is autosymbolism for my physicality while in the dream state (as all single vehicles often are). The rope, attached to the reel/“real” ends because my dream self’s fictitious mental model cannot move my real physical body. In this case, the fence is autosymbolism for the virtual division between subliminal and liminal space, though typically the division between subliminal or liminal space and wakefulness. The reel is under the seat of the wagon as an association with being able to get up. (In this case, there is no drop or anticipation of one.)
