    1. Evil presence - pushing away using power of thought

      by , 08-01-2011 at 04:42 PM (NBF's DJ)
      I haven't posted here in some time because of concerns about my being in the entertainment industry, where you're in danger of becoming well-enough known that any of your Internet postings are summarily outed. I was advised to stay off the Internet as NavyBlueFlower. I'm back on now, inspired by the immortal words of Dr. Emmett L. Brown: "Well, I figured, what the hell?"

      Background to the following dream segment: I'm a lifelong sufferer of OCD. It's been diagnosed, but never directly treated. I am approaching 50. My therapist believes I'm an early-arrival Indigo Child.

      Sounds about right to me.

      The dream segment: I wake up in a house in England. I don't know the area. It's the home of a friend of my sister's, probably in Wimbledon or thereabouts. I have no idea really where I am - I've just been shuttled over there. I wake up and it's just before sunrise - and I feel a malevolent, sickly-evil presence in this room! I can't see it - I can feel it as if it were an invisible oil slick creeping and hovering through the air about me - an oil slick made of thought. Terrified, I try to turn on a light - but the lights aren't working. I jump out of bed and tear through the house - none of the lights are working. It's pitch dark. I run out of the house and down the street - the sun's beginning to come up and the pre-dawn twilight is softening the world. Birds are chirping shyly. The presence stays in the house.

      The next thing I recall is being in the house next to the presence. It's about to enter me, but I muster all my thoughts and point them at the thing, and it balks. It rolls away. Victory.

      Trouble is, it enters into the head of my 93-year-old grandmother. (She was 93 when she passed away in 2003. She'd be 101, had she lived 'til today.) I can't prevent it from doing her harm.

      I know this dream has to do with my OCD. My OCD has to do with fear of loss of control, fear that things will hurt me and I can't do anything about it (except come up with childish "magical" rituals to prevent it), and "butterfly effect" anxiety that everything I do must be very specific or it may cause harm. This ties directly into fear that if I push evil away from me, it has to go somewhere, and it might harm someone I love. Which is directly related to the Christ-complex I had as a little child, that I'd be a good person if I took on as much evil as I could just to take it away from the world and save everybody else the pain. That, my toddler self felt sure, was a sure way to earn my ticket to heaven!

      This dream may have sprung from my recent re-examination of that old belief - and my tentative wonderings that I may not be responsible for others' happiness, and that I may DESERVE good things to come my way in this earthly life and they WON'T bar my way to heaven. Obviously there'd be a lot of fear associated with a change like that in one's thinking.

      Or... was there really a presence?....

    2. Dreams of August 1st

      by , 08-01-2011 at 04:26 PM
      Well I listened to my music all night. Didnt get too many dreams influenced by it though. But there was one, where Nathan had made a video for the end of the year at school, and I was watching it. It had fake trailers at the start like we used to make, but they were so well done, and hilarious. In one, there was Brandon F, who had really long hair, then there was Ryan and maybe Nathan too, there was someone else, and they were all laughing. The school, was like all white on the inside. Like there were tables and stuff, but the walls were all white, and I was wondering how he did that. the trailer opened with some sort of caption on a black screen. it was pretty cool. The song playing was "Faint of Heart" because that was on my mp3.

      I had another dream, which was weird. it was super long. So at one point it was nighttime and I was walking down the street, then this guy asked if I had any crack, and I just ran away as fast as I could, there was a street up ahead, and the lights were just changing, so the cars that were blocking me started moving, but I just kept running almost getting hit by a car. then I had to go somewhere, and there was this guy who thought that I was shady, so he kept lookin over his shoulder making sure I wasnt gonna rob him or something. then I went into a building. Later on my boss was driving a car somewhere. and then later on I was in this weird building that was my boss' I think, there was a sumo wrestler statue, and some other weird stuff. cant really remember the rest, but it was really weird.

    3. 13th shared dreaming attempt - ReachingfortheDream's dream

      by , 08-01-2011 at 04:21 PM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      ReachingfortheDream's dream

      I was at some sort of school camp thing. There was some sort of show that I had to perform in, a play or something. There was some big wooden building, but on the other side of it was a bunch of random wood planks forming the start of a bridge over a vast water body, and some sort of printmaking thing. At one point some friends were there and I had to help with printmaking. I remember flooding the shack thing with water, and I watched as a picture gradually formed onto a piece of watercolor paper.

      ---

      I was in some random forest, and I wanted to take some valerian to help me sleep again. I had the pills in my hand and took them. Then it ended.

      Fragment: Harp of Doom
      I come into possession of an angel's harp. When I pluck the strings towards me, drawing them like a bow, it kills people. Obviously very bad people want this harp for themselves. Waves of mafia guys come after me, but I decimate them with my death harp.

    7. Adventure in my school! Evil Villain, Lava, a poem and my little pony!

      by , 08-01-2011 at 03:25 PM (Shooting from the Sun: Solarflare)
      The dream started out with me talking to my dad about how i dont want to go to those 'help you learn' thingies like kumon . IRL, he never talks about kumon, but in the dream, he was telling me i should go. But i said no! The dream happened and i dont remember blah blah blah.... and......

      I was in a classroom writing a poem. I was with like 6 other people and the teacher, i dont know if she was there or not, she switched from going in the classroom and going out. She looked alot like a character that appears in one episode of a tv show i watched. I was writing the poem and soon i finished. I read it over and realized it was pretty dark and evil. It had a lot of swear words, like a LOTTTTTTTTTTT! And soon i was like to my friend:

      ''yo, my has so much sware words!''

      but he didnt reply. Soon the teacher opened the door to the hallway, went into the hallway and said ''TIME FOR ASSEMBLY!'' and slamed the door so hard!

      Soon we were in the assembly, but i realized , i could write the poem and fix up all the unnecessary swearing if i get it and write the poem while in the assembly. So i got the poem and i was sitting on it so the teacher who was near me couldnt see what it was. SOon i dont know what happened, but i was in the front of the crowd and the girl with the mic was talking about how good we did blah and to show us how good we did, she would show us a vid. A tv appeared near me an My Little Pony came on. The theme song was different so i was sad it wasnt the same show, but it was! ^^

      Twilght was confronting a human and fluttershy was behind her. Below them on another platform, was pinkie pie and some other pony (Rarity i think). And below them on another platform was 2 unnameable ponies, they were irrelevant to what i was doing in the dream, so i didnt bother to see what ponies they were. Twilight was yelling at the human and.......

      Stuff happened i dont remember and the human was controlling all the school. BUt the school looked nothing like the school. Ity looked totally different. It was more like an evil castle. We were trying to escape (me and one of the people i wrote the poem with) and the human was trying to stop us.

      I dont remember much of this part, but i know it had a story behind it that i dont remember. I will tell you what happened in fragments not in chronological order, because i dont remember all of it and i dont know the order it happened

      ____

      I was on a wooden platform and it was moving by itself. THere was lava below. We fell in and died

      We spawned back to life in the main room

      Now that i think about it, i dont remember anything that happened during the human took over everything

      But, after the human took over everything, we exited the school and said, that was the best game ever!

      the end :3

    8. Evil robots at TGI friday's

      by , 08-01-2011 at 03:24 PM (Alpha's dream journal)
      (non-lucid)

      I was at TGI fridays (I have never been to this restaurant before.) with a friend, and there were very few people there.

      (lapse in memory)

      There was something about a contest or raffle, and I remember a wooden box with a glass lid and a bunch of sheets of paper in it.

      (Another lapse in memory)

      There was aback room of the restaurant, and it was bigger inside than outside. My friend was gone, and there was an inventor there. The room looked like a pool with bleachers on all sides, and no door. Small robots came out of the water, and it turned dark purple. The robots were only in the water for now, but then some grew legs and came on land. We both panicked, and tried to escape. There was no door though.

      I somehow turned on Noclip (like on GMod) and flew out of the room. The robots blasted down the wall and came after me. They could fly, but not through walls.

      I knew I had to build something, so I flew inside of a column on the floor. The robots couldn't get me, but then I tripped and fell out of the column. I continued hiding inside of things for a few minuted, then I tried to go into the floor. I couldn't breathe, then I woke up.

    9. Noche de los Muertos

      by , 08-01-2011 at 02:54 PM
      Inception style dream happened to me last night and had me pretty hooked. It began with a false awakening, of course I took no note to the oddities of my room and left to my garage (the hangout in my house) to find several close friends, family members and acquaintances gathered there. I remember a couple of them, particularly my step mom Laura and her son Jeffree wanted me to stay but the majority of the crowd just told me to go back to bed. So I did. Upon doing so moments later I had another false awakening, once again taking no notice of the now even stranger room I was in, and left into what I thought would be my living room. I (gotta love dream logic) walk into a completely different house from my bedroom without noticing anything is amiss and find a few of the people who were in my garage the previous night. I begin telling them "Oh my gosh you guys, I totally had a pre-cognitive vibe about this. I saw you in my dream last night." A young chubby girl asks me what that means, and what I assume is her mother cuts her off and answers, "it's hard to explain." Which may simply be bad parenting. Anyway I think it was right about here I either realized I was dreaming and tried to wake myself or simply found myself in another false awakening, but I was now in my bed again. Unsure, if I was really awake I try holding my nose, "I'm still breathing!" I shout in my mind and try blowing really hard through my nose to jar myself awake. I knock myself off the bed and assume that it worked;it didn't.
      I left the bedroom and went into the living room and find now that several of my close friends, a couple family members, and even total strangers are having some kind of slumber party at my house. I go up to my friend Jon and excitedly start telling him about the dreams I'd just had. In my excitement I began speaking very loud and was shushed more than once. So I try pulling him into our garage which has a view of our neighborhood, as I open the door a large stranger of Mexican decent approaches and says something in regards to what I was telling my friend. His comment makes me realize the fact that I felt very much like I was on a psychedelic drug at the moment. So I get even more excited with what I was telling my friend. We get into the garage and I see a parade in the streets about to start. The people from my house tell me it's for the day of the dead and as it starts I completely forget about telling anyone anything and run like a madman, or a child, through the cars and the parade, and the fireworks. I forget how it happens but soon after that I awaken one last time. Thinking to myself, "I wonder if that day of the dead stuff last night was real." I check the street through my window and sure enough the decorations are still up, and my street is still a mess. but no one is outside this morning. I go to the bathroom, as per usual. And I notice my body is covered in strange bumps. This shakes me up quite a bit, so I finish up my business and go to ask my mom what she thinks of it. She sees only one at first and thinks it's nothing, but the notices that there are many, and a weird look comes up on her face. We begin talking about my upcoming doctors appointment and...that's all I remember.

      As a side note, there were more awakenings where I just stayed in my bed and tripped out on whether I was awake or not. One of which there was recording equipment near my bed playing some kind of message recorded by what I assume was the previous owner. In another I used the chance for visuals to play some Assassins creed, literally within my mind. Also throughout the course of the dream there was an eerie feeling of some kind, difficult to describe.
    10. 13th Shared Dreaming Attempt ~ Nephanim

      by , 08-01-2011 at 02:41 PM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Nephanim's Dreams

      Nothing related to Chichen-Itza today, either, but here are my dreams from last night.

      Cleaning for a Neighbor

      I was cleaning some stuff outside Autumn’s house. For some reason, I saw dirty furniture outside her neighbor’s house and decided to clean that, too. I dusted it off and wiped down all the surfaces. The woman who lived there saw us cleaning her things and approached us in shock. At first, she thought we were going to steal from her, but she was impressed by our good deed. She let us inside to continue cleaning. The woman had two puppies that she had just gotten as a present for her kids. The dogs still hadn’t learned not to eat things on the coffee table in the living room, so I had to follow them out of the room to retrieve these decorative figures they tried to devour. Once I got them back, we cleared everything off the table and cleaned that, too. The woman received a phone call and had to leave the house in our care. While she was gone, Autumn brought Cleo over. The cat started climbing all over the furniture, and whenever I tried to pick her up, she slashed at me with her claws. I watched her climb on the larger dog’s back and direct him by prodding him with her claws. It was disturbing how intelligently this cat enslaved the poor puppy.

      Plot to Invade Planespace

      I watched over a large, hexagonal room as a white-haired man issued orders to his subordinates standing at the midpoint of each wall. The glowing, circular tiles beneath each person’s feet glowed the color of the portal to one of the six domains: Life, Death, Magic, Power, Order, and Chaos. I quickly grasped that this man was attempting to seize control of Planespace and then use the unparalleled military power that would supply him with to capture Nyre. Another jerk after world domination, I thought… I considered taking care of him myself, but then I noticed something strange about their intended leader of the underworld, Xii. He stood rigid, and his entire body was pale – lifeless. The white-haired leader addressed him, but instead of responding, he collapsed. Neluna stood behind him with her hand on her exposed thigh.

      “I hope you don’t mind,” she said in a sweet voice. “This man entered my territory without the proper procedures, so I took care of that for him.” She giggled.

      “Kill her!” the white-haired man ordered. Neluna disappeared into a black portal without delaying for a moment. It was probably fortunate that she did; an instant later, the man standing in the corner corresponding to the Plane of Magic sent a purple wind from his hand. The spell reached into the energies connecting Nyre to Planespace to prevent the use of all portals. It was an amazing spell. I was impressed that we hadn’t encountered this man before. Someone tried to enter the room via portal, but an iron gate appeared on the other side of it. I thrust out my disembodied arm and reversed the direction of the portal to prevent whoever made it from being crushed to bits coming through.

      “We’re going to invade the Plane of Death first,” the leader announced, scowling at his dead subordinate. “Find a replacement for him at once. If we can capture that demoness’ domain, we’ll all be immortal.” It amused me that he had the nerve to go after Neluna first… She would rip them to pieces and suck every drop of energy from their souls.

      Frictionless Sled and Making a Wish

      I was talking to Alexandra Hoeschen online. She seemed interested in playing on WMBRO with us – not immediately, but sometime in the future. I was really excited by the idea. If I could get Balex to play, maybe Joe Beaumont would also join us. I got distracted from our conversation when I looked in a mirror and saw my teeth. A strange half-tooth was growing on top of another one, and the middle portion looked as though it had rotted out. I didn’t realize it was an extra tooth at first, so I tried to push it back to my gum line. When it was clear that it wouldn’t fit anywhere, I pulled it out. My mouth started oozing blood.

      The dream jumped. I went with Autumn to my old high school in Texas. I brought some kind of frictionless sled. I hopped into it, giving it the initial momentum required to carry me wherever I pleased. We circled around to the huge parking lot beside the school. Autumn met with another girl, but I didn’t catch what they were talking about because I was too busy trying to direct my sled. I kept crashing into things. Eventually, Autumn started toward the other side of the school. I didn’t even notice as the environment changed into a grocery store. We went to the dairy aisle at the back of the store and raced from one end to the other. I wasn’t able to stop my sled, so I slammed hard into the wall. Autumn disappeared before I was able to recover. I went to the front of the building and exited. On my way out, I summoned a quarter into my pocket and got a gumball from one of those candy machines. I knew that any wish I made would come true – but I wondered if I was going to hurt the economy by creating money…

      I already had gum in my mouth somehow, so I continued chewing that while walking out to the car. The environment changed back into the high school. Most of the other cars were gone. I waited by the wrong car for Autumn. When she came back, the girl she talked to outside was with her. All three of us got in the car.

      Discovery of the Mist World

      I was investigating the murder of a friend in his mansion. While wandering the building, I accidentally slipped into a hole in the dreamscape and found myself in a world between that one and the next. It was a misty world of escaped demons and whatnot. As I entered, Apheri warned me that I was in a dangerous place.

      “You should probably head back soon,” she warned as the mist crawled up my arms. “If you stay here too long, you’re liable to lose your memory.” She snickered. “You’re not listening, are you?”

      “I’m going to see if there are any hints here. Maybe someone knows what happened to him.”

      “Suit yourself,” she said, brushing away the mist surrounding me for a moment. I wandered through a group of succubi who were watching me. They were clothed, but they might as well have been wearing nothing; their leather outfits covered their shoulders, stomachs, and legs, but the majority was completely bare. They proudly displayed themselves to me, expecting to easily convince me to open my soul to their advances. Having experienced this kind of thing with Neluna far too many times, I wasn’t impressed.

      “I’m looking for someone who knows about a murder,” I told them. Some of the succubi looked worried. One stepped in front of me, hands folded over her chest.

      “If you’re here for that, you can talk to that woman over there,” she answered. She pointed in the direction of a blond woman sitting by herself on thin air. It looked like there should’ve been a ledge there, but she was just floating… I thanked the succubus and slipped out of their hungry group. A bunch of pale-faced beings with sunken eye sockets watched me in apparent agony as I walked by. One of them fell forward onto all fours and started slowly crawling after me. Even when I reached the blond-haired woman in armor, I glanced back over my shoulder and saw that he was still slowly making his way toward me. I hoped he wouldn’t catch me off-guard. I introduced myself to the armored woman. She held up a pike as she hopped down to my level. The mist began to surround us both.

      “We don’t usually get your kind here,” she laughed. “You can call me RPG. I guess you’re looking for information, right?”

      “Yeah – there was a murder in an adjacent world, and I think it has something to do with this place.”

      “Maybe.” Seeming to trail off on another topic entirely, she smiled up at me and asked, “Did you know that Timelyst Knight and the High Lord of Anguish are the same person?” When I admitted that I didn’t, she laughed again. “It’s all the governor’s fault. He’s the one you want.” RPG turned away from me, unwilling to divulge any more information. I whipped out my laptop and started looking up information on the governor connected to my deceased friend. Meanwhile, succubi gathered around me, whispering and cooing to one another. It took me a moment to realize that the one standing in front of me was Neluna.

      “What?” I asked her without really looking up.

      “This is an interesting place,” she said. “I’ve never been here before.”

      “That’s probably because it’s off the map. It shouldn’t even exist.”

      “Time’s running short…” Apheri warned. “Don’t stay much longer.” I put a hand on the hilt of my sword, putting her at ease. A surprisingly ordinary-looking man broke through the crowd of succubi, closed my web browser, and suggested that I come to dinner before it’s all gone. I stared in disbelief at the guy. He didn’t seem to realize that he’d wandered into a world overrun by demonic entities. At any rate, I decided I could come back here whenever I wanted, so I bid the succubi farewell and followed the man back to the mansion.

      The dream jumped. While I waited at a dining table, a chef explained that he had prepared special beverages for us. They were made of a dangerous chemical that could be used to create chloroform, however, so he needed us to sign a release form and present identification in order to pick one up. I wasn’t sure I liked the idea of drinking something so hazardous… At any rate, I was the fourth person in line, so I immediately began looking through sheets of names for mine. I found it just in time to present my card and cross it off the list. The chef went back into the kitchen to fetch my drink.

    11. 13th Shared Dreaming Attempt-Katsuno's Dream

      by , 08-01-2011 at 01:17 PM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Katsuno's Dream

      I dreamed of meeting my sports teacher in 2 different dreams last night. The first time I only remember talking to him and the second is a bit longer.

      1st: I was walking with 2 friends on a path. Suddenly my sports teacher came across and talked to us. He was driving a go-cart and seemed like he was just visiting this village. I woke up

      2nd: I was at the same spot again but this time I was alone. My teacher was talking to me and told me that he is here on vacation and he wants to know some places to visit. I told him that there aren't many places in my village and suddenly I looked towards the street and said my mantra for some reason. At first I said "I will lucid dream tonight" but then I said "I dream lucid all the time" (haha, how right I was -.-) but I didn't get lucid
      Then we went on until we reached my house and my teacher said something like "My pupils never listen to me, what should I do?" (they really don't listen to him IRL). I told him that he is a nice person but he is not strict enough for us to listen to him.
      I woke up

      As the dream started I became lucid instantly. I'm at my house, outside, then I try to fly. There is this big ramp, and then I start running onto it, with my skates (which magically came out of my shoes), but I just hover for a few seconds. Then this girl show up and orders some short, small clown to kill me.
      He comes after me, and I say "Oh really?". I unsheathe a katana out of my back. We start fighting, but he fight with a tennis racket somewhy. I don't remember much after that.

    15. Ship

      by , 08-01-2011 at 12:58 PM (Journal)
      I'm in a big ship, which somehow made me instantly lucid.
      It's very cold, and I didn't want to fly away because of that, and I didn't know where I was.
      I just look around the ship.
      I went to the bar and said to the man "Hey can you get me a martini for free? Because I'm dreaming". The man looked angry at me, then I felt a big impact. The ship had wrecked. Sadly I woke up.
