    1. complete control

      by , 02-11-2011 at 06:47 AM
      Today after work i came home and ate a plate of spaghetti, then decided to take a nap. That's where it all started.... I noticed that i was in a dream after walking into my old apartment that i haven't been to in at least two years. I was with my fiancee and we were running from some little punk kids. I turned around to confront them and couldn't see their faces.... at that moment i realized i wasn't awake. so after a few personal tests in the dream (testing gravity and other laws of physics) i knew that i was in control. Just then a small pick-up truck drove by and stopped, i decided to see what all i could get away with (inspired by the movie "inception") I placed both hands on the hood of the truck and thought of the vehicle that i knew the best, my dads 99 gmc sierra, in the dream i closed my eyes and decided to "morph" the little pick-up into my dad's prized possession. IT WORKED!!! I watched the color change, the cab expand, and the grill guard grow out of the radiator. It was the most amazing feeling ever! So I tried to see how big i could go... Looking into the horizon i created a beautiful backdrop of the skyline of dallas. I watched in awe as skyscrapers grew at my command. I've done small scale things like fly up a couple dozen feet into the air but I've always had restrictions as to what i could do, (for example i always glide as compared to unlimited flying.) but not today, i had complete control. As i was exploring my dream world i started to notice when i was about to wake up, so i closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and just relaxed. It worked perfectly. I was able to stay asleep and in the same dream for what felt like at least an hour. I've never talked to anyone else who has been able to do this, which led me to do some research and is how i ultimately ended up on the website, which i immediately decided to register and become a member. Please if you read this leave a comment and let me know what you've been able to accomplish in your dreams, and any tips you may have. thanks...

    2. Backwash

      by , 02-11-2011 at 05:36 AM
      Back Wash
      Recall: 7/10
      Sleep: OK
      Sleep Position: Unknown
      I'm driving a car, with the seat tilted way back, almost laying down. A police officer waves me over and directs me to pull over in front of a road block on a bridge. I'm worried they will bust me for not wearing a seat belt, but maybe I'm sitting so low they won't notice. The police seem preoccupied anyway.

      Beyond the roadblock, the bridge is flooded with about a foot of water over the cement. As I imagine trying to drive through the water, the flood washes past the barrier and carries all the cars down hill. I'm being pushed backwards, and to either side of me are steep rocky ditches, small cliffs, rock faces, all manner of disasters should I go off the road. And the cars around me are doing just that.

      I'm luck I was in the middle lane, and I try to hit the brakes which do nothing. I can kind of steer a little which keeps me on the road. After a few minutes, I try the brakes again and my car comes to a halt.

      In the car with me is a chinese guy. We've stopped in front of an out of the way strip club, and I say to the chinese guy "After that, we need a beer!". We go in and all the strippers are really old. Don't recall much after that.

    3. Earth's Last Day

      by , 02-11-2011 at 05:03 AM
      I had this dream around 1988. It was very vivid but I was not lucid, if memory serves. I was standing outdoors somewhere with a guy I worked with, named Marc. There were asteroids, comets, nuclear missiles and UFOs flying wildly all over the sky, but mostly UFOs. As we all know, these are all speculated ways that the Earth may come to its demise. So in the dream I was thinking...'Wow, so this is it. All these things are happening at once.' Then suddenly this huge UFO, so big it almost completely blocked out the whole sky, comes down and lands right in front of us. It was your typical round UFO. It then proceeded to dig itself into the Earth until the roof of it was level with the ground. The whole thing was now underground! A huge round hatch (I know, so cliche) the opened up to reveal an entire fully functioning city inside! The tops of the skyscrapers were right at our feet. I wanted to climb down the side of a building and go check out this city. For some reason, I was not afraid but Marc was and he refused to go. I didn't go either but we both knew that this was the end of the world (as we know it) and that we were being taken over by aliens. I have two thoughts on this dream. The first one is that back when I had this dream, I did not believe aliens existed and had never seen a UFO. I never once considered that aliens would take us over. Also, I had never picked up a Bible and had no forethought about the New Jerusalem being brought down to Earth in Revelation. So my question is: Could this dream have been prophetic? Did I witness the New Jerusalem coming from the sky? Back in 1988, the only possible cause for the end of the world I'd ever contemplated was nuclear war, which may be why my mind threw the nuclear missiles into the air along with the UFOs and comets.

    4. Dream Warning

      by , 02-11-2011 at 05:00 AM
      a
      I have plenty of unimportant dreams then...

      I wake up an hour before I need to and have some resolve to change dreams up a bit.
      I am visiting a former work place to tell them about how great my new career path is. Before I see anyone I see Scott my old manager and work buddy. He looks at me harshly and I see that he has died his head and face hair blond! He looks so strange now! He glares at me while working his crummy job and I walk off to think about why this is not how I planned it. I was supposed to come back and tell them how great my life was and they were supposed to gush with happiness! Now I saw this blond Scott again and he gave me a very angry look as if to tell me I was not wanted here.
      This seems like a warning dream. Strangely I did think going back I would be greeted by gushing happiness but now after this dream I can see no way! That job sucked on an epic level, so much you tend to hate life and even happiness. There is no way that they would be truly happy to see me. I have worked there and been the one working in hell and watching others comer back and prance around in happiness and I felt like strangling them. How could I have been so consciously blind? Thanks dreams for putting me on the straight path. BTW the job from hell was WalMart.

    5. Meeting Dreamer

      Meeting Dreamer (DILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I was in some sort of fighting tournament. The tournament was playoff based, with only one fight per round. All the DC I saw were random and appeared very strong. Also, there was a female DC.
      It was my turn to fight and I entered the arena, I was a little afraid but I had to embrace. The battle ended pretty fast making me a victor. It was also my turn to fight again and I felt I did not rest from the previous fight. I was walking around the resting area a little worried. The resting area was made like a Colosseum. The walls and the floors were made of big squares of dark gray stones and some dirt. I had to fight a huge guy, but for some reason, I saw a book in the battle arena. I opened the book and realized it was that guy's Akashic Records. I started to mess up with them until he went bananas and defeated himself.

      I exited the area waiting for quarter finals. I had to face this female DC and she told me, "Do not even thing in messing up my Akashic Records. I am a psychic and if you try, you will get confused and defeating you will be easy."

      While I was planning what to do, I asked to myself, "What the hell I am doing in a battle arena? I do not fight! I am a spiritual person, not a fighter. I turned lucid and wondered where the that weird dream came from.

      I exited the Colosseum and saw a dirt road. I decided to fly to make my dream stable. The sky was very blue, not even one cloud. I could feel the warmth from the sun on my face. I felt great. Dreamer came to my mind and the warm feeling arrived. I saw mountains on my way and flew faster, hopping to find Dreamer.

      The mountains were very high but I could fly over them. I landed in a green and beautiful field. The field was surrounded by mountains and the sky was still very blue. The ground, was all dark green grass. I saw Dreamer meditating in the middle of the field. I flew towards her and I sat in front of her. I had a very intense warm feeling, bigger than ever and I was very happy. All I wanted to do was to stay with Dreamer. She opened her eyes and she hugged me. I felt joy. The dream started to fade and I really wanted to stay more time with Dreamer. I started to move my eyes and the dream quality increased.

      Dreamer told me, "I am very happy to see you. I feel very connected with you. It is so great we are dreaming of each other all the time." I realized that due our time zone, she was not dreaming yet, so I figured she might have been thinking about me or a piece of her consciousness traveled to my dream. Dreamer did not act nor had the same energy as a regular DC.

      Dreamer decided to lie down in the grass. I also did. We were looking at each other eyes. It was a continuous, permanent and without distraction eye contact. I knew I was going to ruin my REM, but I did not care. It was the perfect moment. Dreamer and I were looking into each other's eyes and after a while, the dream started to fade. I allowed it to end and woke up with a perfect image of Dreamer face, eyes and smile.

    6. February 10, 2011- Tapeworms

      by , 02-11-2011 at 03:55 AM
      This is arguably the most disgusting dream I've ever had. I had tapeworms- bad- to the point where they wouldn't be contained in my digestive tract and hung in a mass in me undies. They were squishy and gross and I was supposed to pull them out but that sounded even grosser so I just left them there. And then I woke up and spent the first half hour of waking life convinced that I still had them.

    7. Using Powers

      by , 02-11-2011 at 03:43 AM
      I was riding in the back of a car looking out the opposite window of where I was sitting, and I saw a huge wolf looking in right at me. I was so scared at this sight that I became lucid in the process of coping with the fear. I then proceeded to close my eyes, imagine changing the wolf into something else, and reopen my eyes. The head of the wolf started to take on the form on an old bearded man and all the color in the dream reverse (kind of like the negative of a photograph). I felt myself coming out of the dream, so I tried a technique I had heard of to keep a dream going.. I shut my eyes and spun my dream body and reopened my eyes. I didn't end up in a new landscape like I pictured I would. Rather I ended up in a geometric world full of lines and shapes that seemed to be caving in on itself and the color was still negative. I awoke soon after, the dream couldn't have lasted more than a minute or two, but it was very cool to actually be able to harness some powers in my dream state that are impossible to achieve in real life like changing the form of another creature and jumping to a new place without tradition means of transportation.

    8. First Lucid Dream

      by , 02-11-2011 at 03:15 AM
      This was the first lucid dream I've ever had:

      So I was in another dream, and I awoke into my bed and remembered to think "next time I'm dreaming, I'll realize I'm dreaming." Then I was floating in pure whiteness and said that thought out loud to myself. Instantly upon doing so I was hit with a full body rush similar to intense shivers and tingling throughout all my extremities and I burst through the clouds and began my descent down towards the ground, fully lucid. Not having any previous flying experience I decided to experiment how exactly flying is done. I would describe the sensation to swimming, where treading with your arms will direct you in the path you want to go. This was the happiest I have ever been as i felt the wind whipping through my hair and could see the ground rushing underneath me.

      Then I saw a large pack of wild animals, some wolfs, deer, moose, and others all charging in a heard below me. I stuck both hand out in front of my face and directed the momentum and path of the herd to my exact liking and laughed out loud while doing so (I've never felt so empowered and free in my life). I continued to fly after the herd had disappeared out of sight and flew up just about a tree line. There I saw a random telephone pole and perched right on top, out of breath. I remember thinking to myself, "gee, I've never free fallen before.." and then I put my arms straight out to the side and fell backwards off the telephone pole all the way down to my bed where I awoke THRILLED at what I had just achieved. I would classify this as a life changing dream/event.

      There is some PlayStation game that I am playing and I am remembering watching my
      brother play it. I forget what game it is. I get to a point where I had stopped watching him
      and I go through this entire part until I get to the part where I came back in and continued.

      I'm not sure if this memory is real or if it is a footprint.
      I am at a circular bazaar type place and there are men in black suits looking for me. I go
      around the bazaar and see this lady selling some music stuff. I ask her if she has a Clarinet
      or Alto Saxophone mouthpiece. It had a name, something not real, which I forget. I then talk
      to another lady and she gives me a valuable piece of information which I forget. I go around
      the circular bazaar and up some steps off the side up to a fountain. There is a naked woman
      there who walks toward me. I hug her and find myself naked as well and start... you know.
      The dream snaps to my room at home. The woman is still there. Then she disappears and I
      am fully clothed and forget about her. A bunch of other people are in my room with me, my
      brother and some girl I do not know. We are planning something to do with the information
      that lady had given me. I get a phone call from my crush and she tells me to meet her. The
      dream snaps to a road in the woods with some gravel offshoots to what looks like a park or
      something. I see my crush and she tells me that the lady who gave me the information was
      taken by the men who were looking for me.
      The dream ends.

      One of my strangest ever
      I was kind of hesitant to write the explicit part in my dream journal...

      I am in a convenience store looking around and I see all the isles, I see chips and candy.
      I get to the refrigerated isle and I see milk and ice cream, etc... I am still cautiously keeping
      an eye out for the people who were chasing me in the last dream. I can hear a radio playing
      on the store's speakers in the background. It is an interview. I go up to the corner of the store
      and there is a bar there. My dad is standing there along with one of my instructors from
      marching band. The instructor has some sort of blue gel that he is rubbing on these sores he
      has. As he rubs in the gel it turns a white soapy color, kind of like vicks vapor rub. He complains
      about the sores getting worse. I hear a song on the radio and say thats ( I don't remember )
      by From Autumn to Ashes. There is more talking on the radio then I hear Long To Go by the
      same group. I say "Thats Long To Go by From Autumn To Ashes". I then realize that the radio
      is playing a documentary on the group which is pretty interesting.
      The dream ends.

      Interesting backstory or this dream. Every night, I get my shower, dress in my clothes for
      the next day and go to bed in those clothes. From Autumn To Ashes ( FATA ) is one of my favorite
      bands and I have a t-shirt of them. It is that t-shirt that I decided to wear for the next day.

      This dream scared me a little.
      I am in the entryway to a building. The entryway looks quite similar to that of the music
      building at my university but the rest of it is like some convenience store. I am holding one
      of those Nesquick chocolate milk mix containers and it is filled with homemade nitroglycerin.

      I think that came from watching Fight Club two nights ago...
      Anyway, I set the container down on a bench-like part of the wall that juts out near the floor.
      There are some subtle electronics on the top of the lid. I leave, lapse in memory, and come back.
      I notice the container is gone. I make another one and think "It should have clued me in when the
      building was still here". Suddenly I see a couple people and I hide. I try to avoid them while setting
      the other container. I get ready to leave and they spot me. They start chasing me and I run. The
      dream snaps to my best friend's driveway. The people are still there but further off. My best friends
      sister comes up from behind and says we need to get out of here. She pulls up an ATV and we ride
      away on a trail.
      The dream ends.

      I am in some sort of store that sells video games. I look at a shelf and there are
      all the major systems. I look through these for a while and run into my friend Kyle.
      I say hi and suddenly a bunch of other kids our age start throwing rubber balls at us
      and we start playing dodgeball. After a short game, the dream snaps to my yard by
      our shed. Kyle is still with me and my Dad is there as well. I look up into the woods
      and see an Antman from Dungeon Master Java.

      I look down on the ground and see its spiked club. I pick it up and throw it at the
      monster.
      The dream ends before it hits.

    13. Shes always in my dreams

      by , 02-11-2011 at 02:06 AM (The Vault)
      On two separate occasions in my dream tonight she kissed me. I can vividly remember her face and her pretty blonde hair during the whole time, which is unsual for my dreams. Not going into names on the off chance that somebody I know reads this. It was a thoroughly enjoyable dream. At one point during the second part I actually realized I was dreaming for just a moment, because I realized it was too good to be true. Some reality check. I was actually upset to go lucid and let myself fall back into normal dreaming. The first time it happened we had been playing some game and the place we were in turned into a locker block where it was just her and I. We flirted for a bit and it finally happened.

      Second was in the elevator after we had gone to the gym with a group of people. I remember the walk back but that pales in comparison to the way she was all over me in the elevator, crazy about me. I remember not being able to get my lips wet enough for a good kiss though. This is because my mouth often dries out while I'm sleeping. This may have been the sign that made me realize I was dreaming.

    14. Entry Seven - 2nd Lucid (sort of)

      by , 02-11-2011 at 01:45 AM
      [I]Last night I believe I had a mixture of lucid dreaming and normal dreaming in one dream, but I only remember parts and from the lucid parts I remember, I don't remember having much control, but read on...[/I]

      [I]Anyways, I decided to try FILD last night and I believe it worked, as this is the first lucid I've had in around a week, trying every night with WBTB. Since I can't remember the beginning of the dream, its hard to say whether it was the result of FILD or not, I really need to improve my dream recall.[/I]

      Anyways, the first part I remember seems to be non lucid, as I was in my garage and two of my friends were there and I was telling them about the FILD technique. My theory is that it worked and I was ecstatic, and in the process of moving from my bed (FILD almost always starts as a seeming failure/FA) throughout my house, I lost lucidity, but my dream continued to be about FILD as it was on my mind.

      [COLOR="green"]Next, I remember being in my kitchen to tell my sister about FILD also, but she was screaming at me for something. It was hectic and I tried to make her disappear by swiping my hand horizontally across in the air and saying "Go away" or "Disappear" or something, which failed.[/COLOR] I don't remember much more than this, but I believe for this part I was lucid or I probably wouldn't be trying to make my sister just disappear :P

      [I]Not too sure if this all was the result of FILD or not, like I said. But I have a pretty good feeling it was, but its just my dream recall that is failing me. Ill need to work on it, I've heard a banana aids vividness and recall ability, so I'll try that tonight. I'll also be trying FILD again. LDing is really exciting![/I]

      *~*

      Ugh I have the most horrible time remembering dreams when they're not full blown nightmares. Need to work on that, especially considering my last one was rather pleasant up until the the end. Oh well I'll write down everything I can recall, which isn't much.

      I know that I was in a strange house with a group of people that I knew in the dream, but have no memory of ever meeting in the waking world. I was in an attic that was nothing more then the wooden skeleton of the house. No carpet, or color on the walls. There were boxes packed with stuff shoved off to the side and it was really bright. Much brighter then an attack should have been though i don't remember seeing any lights. It was almost like it was natural sunlight though there were no windows.

      I was running. I think it was some sort of race that I was determined to win. So determined that when my cat Dahlia stepped out in front of me I didn't bother to stop. I simply jumped to try and jump over her, but I failed and ended up stomping on her. At first I didn't feel bad about it until I stopped to pick her up and look her over. She was badly hurt with scratches on her chin and face, but the worst of it was her front leg. The skin and muscle had been completely torn away leaving bloody exposed bone. The skin was just dangling from her with her entire paw hanging off of it. She wasn't acting like she was in any pain, but just had this really angry pissed off look, though deep down I knew that she was dying. I was so upset that I actually ended up waking up from it.

      I then proceeded to hunt down my cat and snuggle with her under the covers for the rest of the night, much to her annoyance.
