    1. 01/30/11 Halls of Avalon

      by , 01-31-2011 at 03:43 AM (New Dream Adventures of Raven Knight)
      Note: For reference, I refer to the energy force that guides me to where I need to be as Avalon, which comes from the island of Avalon as depicted in the animated series Gargoyles. Here is a brief note on the characteristics of Avalon that seem to be seen in the force that guides my unplanned, sometimes non-lucid, dreams:

      Avalon cannot be found on a map of the world; it is reachable only by magic. Despite being part of the Earth, its true location is found at a rather large nexus of native Earth magic, and therefore is incapable of being reached in a three dimensional manner. The usual procedure for entering Avalon for mortals is to recite a Latin incantation while upon a body of water (which can range in size from the sea to a college swimming pool); Oberon's Children, on the other hand, can presumably come and go through their innate abilities, without needing water nearby. (Although I have always traveled with my version of Avalon without the aid of water or incantations, unless lying on a waterbed and snoring counts!) Leaving Avalon is somewhat trickier; it does not send you to where you wish to go, but to where you need to be. (It is this part about being sent where you need to be that usually results in me showing up exactly where and when I am needed to perform a dream task.)

      So lately I seem to be unable to travel with Avalon, or be lucid in any manner. And even though Avalon has always guided my non-lucids before, they have been getting more and more mundane over time, more dreams about work and school and less dreams about far off worlds and adventure. One of my main goals now is to find out what has happened with my ability to have Avalon send me where I need to be, and get it working again, or hopefully get it working again. There is also an issue going on with Asuka, MoSh has reason to believe there may be a demon of some kind inside her, that her symbiant is fighting it, but isn't able to force it all of the way out. If I am able to, helping with this is my second goal for the night.

      The Halls of Avalon
      I am in a strange place, I look around and see that I am in a long arched hallway that is illuminated by a dim blue light. The entire setting is very dark, but it is also very comforting there, I am getting a sense of peace. I look at the high vaulted ceilings and then begin making my way down the hallway, heading in the only way I can go since there is a locked door behind me. I haven't checked the door, but I am absolutely certain it is locked. My footsteps echo loudly in the wide halls, and after a while I meet up with another person there. I am surprised at that since I thought I was alone. There is a woman coming over to me, she smiles welcomingly, and says, "Welcome to the Halls of Avalon."

      "The Halls of Avalon?" I ask, "This is Avalon?"

      "This is only a small part of Avalon," she says, "The whole of Avalon is vast, but this is where you must enter from. You enter from here and then you will be able to go anywhere you need to at the time. I tell her I have always been able to do that before. She says if I have traveled through the Halls of Avalon in the past, then I have but to choose a hall, go to the door at the end, and find out where it takes me. I continue down the hall I am in, it goes on for a ways farther. I pass several other halls that branch off of the one I am following, though I decide to stay with the one passage for now. It finally comes to an end. There is a door there, so I go to open it up, but I find it is locked.

      Suddenly there is a man there with me, he is smiling at me and laughing, though he doesn't really seem unfriendly. He says I'm not going to get through it without unlocking it first… I keep trying to open it for a bit, then I look in my pockets, looking to see if I might have a key on me. The man chuckles again and says it looks like someone lost her key. I ask if he has a key. He says of course he does. I ask him to open the door, then. He says that won't help me any, if he opens the door, it will lead to a place he needs to be right now, not to where I need to be. He says I have to open it myself. I ask where my key is. He asks how he would know that when I'm the one who lost it. I pick up a couple of wires off the ground and make a lame attempt to pick the lock… epic fail. I try a Harry Potter spell, alohamora… epic fail. The man says I have about as much chance of getting through the door like that as I have of digging the Grand Canyon using a teaspoon. I ask him how I'm supposed to get through it, then? Break it down? He says I should use Avalon to find it. I say I can't use Avalon until I find the key, so how am I supposed to use Avalon to find the key? He shakes his head a bit and says I have clearly missed the point entirely. But I shouldn't worry, he has complete confidence that I will figure it out if I just manage to focus on it and think about it for a while.

      Fly Me to the Mall
      I am in an airplane of some kind, I am the pilot, and this doesn't seem odd to me. I have complete control of the plane and I am having no trouble flying it, as if I have been doing it for years. There is someone there with me, though I'm not exactly sure who he is. He is saying something about us being too high, we need to lower altitude, so I go into a dive towards the ground. The man with me starts freaking out and yelling at me that we can't lose altitude that fast, we have to pull up, we're going to crash! I don't pay much attention to the man freaking out, I feel confident that we aren't even close to crashing. As we get close to the ground I finally pull up and fly parallel to the ground. The man with me is cursing loudly and telling me I must be stark raving mad. He says he wants off and he wants off now, land the plane now. He is getting annoying, so I finally land the plane in the parking lot of a mall, I'm not sure how I manage to do that, but I landed the plane without destroying anything, not even scratching the plane. The man ejects the hood off of the cockpit and jumps out, face plants on the ground, curses some more, and then runs away. Damn… he ejected the cockpit hood… now I can't even fly the damned plane!

      I get out of the plane and decide to go into the mall, where I strangely remember I wanted to get some clothing, though I don't want to go shopping for clothes now… I go into a store and buy a couple of items, then I pay for them and carry them out on hangers. There are now displays of clothing in the halls, all from one designer clothing store. I look around and see some shirts I really like, then I see the price on the tag… $128.99? Seriously? I put one of the items I have on one side of the item I want… then I pick up all three items and walk casually away from the display. I glance around and see there is no one watching me, that's good. Now to look for something cooler… video games. Maybe a Nintendo 3DS… maybe a new game for one of my other systems… I am trying to think about which game I might be interested in getting when I wake up.

    2. Crack dealing to cyborg Asuka

      by , 01-31-2011 at 03:37 AM (MoSh's DJ: The Best Dream Journal in The Universe.)
      FA

      I had an FA and heard the tenants upstairs moving around like they were having a party. Which is strange because the lady who rents upstairs is an old lady....

      Strange house

      Dreaming I was in a house like my one grandma use to live in. But I was thinking it was strange that in this one there was no basement. I forget the rest of the dream.

      Contemplating being a drug dealer.

      For some reason my dream self was walking around town worried about money problems and for a moment my dream self was thinking about becoming a drug dealer. I was all paranoid and would buy a gun. I wonder why my dream self would think this.

      perception off again.

      I was walking downtown with my brother and cousin Kari. We stopped to talk at some downtown monument by and office building, I was staring at my brother and thought it ws tstrange that he had long hair again. I saw that it was dyed black. and then the black color drained to blond. Then his hair was short. At some point kari left and then my brother.

      Everything became vivid and I was staring at some pavement. It kept shifting hues from grey to green and then purple. I was tripping out.

      For some reason I followed this blond guy into some house. We had blankets that stretched to infinity and we were using them to create a maze in the house. I started walking towards one part of the maze but looked left and saw a hallway covered in blanket as usual. I went up towards that hallway and in one room I saw it wasn't covered so the man I was with went in there and covered it in blanket... wtf dream for sure.

      Blankets = towers in the sky

      Very long dream that I sort of forgot. I was in this palace in the sky going through many rooms. For some reason we had to leave it. I was in a wooded area and I saw that the sky palace was just a blanket... so I summoned a blank it and made mine look like a palace. I went inside and the entire blanket covered me... but suddenly it was a huge palace... wtf.

      Asuka

      weird dream that Asuka was a cyborg. I looked into one of her eyes and it was like looking into a microscope that showed circuits in her brain...

    3. Weirdest Dream I've Ever Had

      by , 01-31-2011 at 02:54 AM
      So I had a dream that I was inside of my own mouth (if you can fathom that). SO basically I had two bodies, the one I could control, and the one I was in (the mouth). I was plucking mushrooms from under my tongue, and every time I did so, I could feel it hurt in the bottom of my mouth (which I why I cam to the conclusion that I must have been in my own mouth). I vividly remember blue mushrooms everywhere, and bacteria growing along the walls of my mouth. It was like a giant cave infested with moss or something.

      WTF, I wish I knew what was going on in my subconscious. Have you had any freaky dreams like this?

      Death (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      A girl went to the seaside to capture a few photos of the eclipse. Somehow she got a wound in her neck and it was spraying blood all over the city. A doctor/detective and another girl went to help her. Soon the doctor was missing and it turned out he got killed in a car close to the bleeding girl. Another girl in something like a dorm got locked in a really long bathroom with a huge window in one end. The eclipse melted her. While I was going out of my room with another girl I didnt know, I met some guy who had something in common with both deaths. These deaths had turned into legends around the campus (since when do I live in a campus anyway?),so when we got in the elevator I asked him about them. Then I noticed that my girl was missing. We went back to my floor to pick her up and then she attacked us. I figured out It was going to turn into a nightmare failed to control my surroundings. I woke up and as I was thinking about the dream I fell asleep.
    5. Needy Old Lady & Waking Up at the Right Time

      by , 01-31-2011 at 01:43 AM
      a
      Dream 1 : Needy Old Lady
      Not waking lucid but dream lucid, I could remember past dreaming experiences and fully knew it was a dream.

      I was on the road behind my childhood home just walking along. I was not lucid but I knew this was a dream. I say some other people ever now and again. Towards the end of the road there was a young guy who looked something like a young Bob Saget, tall, lanky, very skinny, black hair combed over, he was flanked by an old woman who seemed to be annoying to him. She kept talking at him as if she wanted him to say something or understand her motives. I walked besides them. Then she saw a sitting area on the corner of the block where about 20 people were sitting in a circle waiting for something. I had seen this here before in the dream world, it was like an outdoor deck but this was round, on the corner of the homes property near the street and had seating benches in that circle for 2 levels of seats, with a railing around its perimeter. Strange but not too much, still I am not sure exactly the meaning of it or what it is supposed to do. People always sit in it like they are expecting something to happen. The annoying old lady saw it and abruptly broke away from her “victim” almost bumping into me. I stopped short and she turned to me and said “excuse me.”
      I saw her sit down up there and exhale like she was finally resting after much stress. “I am finished with life!” she said leaving me to believe that she was between lives instead of being a dreamer. “Freeing isn’t it?” I said, “Yes” she replied with a smile. I walked on up the bigger road to see what else was around. After a few seconds I felt her presence behind me, and to my left, and when I looked she was in the appearance of a Halloween rubber skeleton! I’ve seen stranger appearances but I had to roll my eyes at this one, this was a little weird. The old lady was blathering on about some inane trivial nonsense obviously trying to have my attention. I didn’t give it to her and just kept walking and looking ahead.
      She started to feel my legs like they were unnatural to her and my back and stomach a bit (These were all her height as a little skeleton woman). “Oh you’re so real!” she said as if expecting something unreal. “I am real” I said with conviction.
      Then the way she was talking changed a bit and when I looked back she was now a little pig woman, with the body of a pig but the face of a woman but with the snub nose. This had to be something she had perfected in her own time, it takes a bit of thinking and manipulations of feelings to get something like this to work. She was saying something about needing help so I picked her up. She sat up in my hand saying something, then I thought that her butt in on my palm, and though this is a dream, it is still disgusting. I shifted her to both hands in front of me so I could toss her out in front of me giving her a bit of a head start. I got a feel of her though and she didn’t feel like a pig instead she had an icky type of old-lady-skin where it is very thin and slips a lot right under the skin, almost how chicken skins slide around on the wet meat after being cooked. This creeped me out so I put her down almost tripping over her. The scenery turned into a home like setting, a long home where we could walk around it like one of those homes that are museums. She was still chattering away as we walked by people to each side of us who looked to be dressed in clothes from the 1700’s. She started to ask why I wasn’t attracted to her. Exasperated I said “I can’t have a relationship with a pig.” She protested a bit with some squealing.
      Then she changed into a cow-lady! Now she had a fake cow body like if you were wearing a cow costume, but only knee high to me, and her face was her full woman face with white cow coloring. So she was a tiny fake cow woman. I turned and looked at her and said “Udderly ridiculous” Then I motioned like “get it?”, she was not amused, I walked on. Then she talked about some things she had done to help people as if I would like her for these things she’s done, but by now I was beyond pretenses and was on to have as much fun out of this as I could, so in mock adoration I said, “That’s moo-tastic.” She just stood there exasperated as I walked off and hoped she would not follow. I watched a woman ironing with a hot flat iron in her 1700’s era kitchen as I walked away.

      Dream 2: Airport
      Still dream-lucid

      I was in an airport parking lot and while looking for something interesting to see came to a 18 wheeler being loaded by 3 young adults. I gave it a look and walked in. They paid me no attention. I came to the back of the truck where boxes were piled high, bored and a bit angry at this place, I laid down on the trucks floor. If they thought I worked there maybe someone would get angry and give the place some life! A young woman who held herself like she was in some kind of charge of this work asked the guy in there looking at his clipboard about me “Is this guy working?” “Yea he’s working” the guy said surprising me a bit but I decided to play along for a bit. I got up and followed her to the pile of boxes in the middle of the trucks trailer that had to be sorted “They have to have the info down” she said refereeing to the mailing address info on the boxes. She turned to go back into the truck more and tell me something but I realized this was my chance to freak her out, I could wake up, pulling myself out of the dream area with no apparent way to have left. I willed my real eyes open and could still see her portly self in her red hoody as an after image.
    6. 0/1 Sat: Fragments from a long dream

      by , 01-31-2011 at 01:42 AM (One Must Imagine Sisyphus Happy)
      Irregular sleeping patterns for me lately. I sleep about 5-6 hours at a time in an irregular patterns the persists for several days. So as best as I can guess, I sometimes am getting a lot of REM sleep and sometimes seemingly none at all. Anyway, this dream below might have been two or more dreams but it was a blur when I woke up.

      Going to McDonald's three times in one day. In the drive-thru in car with sister and father. No one asks what I wanted and that makes me upset.

      Then at home, in a bedroom with two sets of bunk beds. Two coworkers fighting over some. One jumps from one bunk to the other and it almost falls. That makes me upset and I say something sarcastic and scolding. Then he threatens me with a hammer. Really? I start to walk any in disgust. Now he has a giant sledge hammer and he starts to swing it at me. I don't finch because I know he won't hit me. He stops the swing, surprised that I didn't move. Now I seem to be in the office. I walk away, letting the coworker get caught in the act of his aggression. I'm still upset but remain calm.

      Prisoners (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Me and two friends were in the men's locker room. We were in the middle of a fight. We had to kill someone. Suddenly people started coming in. We tried to push them away but they were too much and they caught us. They sent us to the police-station. I was with my bike so I rest it next to a wall. We stood in a hall for a while, and then they sent is into a big living room like cell (kinda looked like my living room ). They gave us a macbook, an iphone and an ipod nano. I think there was only one more guy left in the room. (probably the third guy got sent somewhere else) Soon they sent us on some weird vacation, next to something like a miniature version of the grand cannon. I started climbing on it. There was music playing in the backround and i said it sounded like SRV. (Stevie Ray Vaughn) Somehow I ended up with a psp in my hands and an umd disk. I tried inserting the disk into the psp but something was wrong.

      Vampire and a murderer (Non-lucid)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      Somebody had murdered a friend's daughter. That friend was really interested in finding some photos of her taken moments before her death. Me and some girl were in a place which looked like a grocery store or a bank. Two guys attacked us with some sprays and i had to kill them. I killed one with a wooden stick which i later broke into pieces and threw in a recycle bin (so they dont catch me). I realised i was a vampire. I was immortal. My mission was to protect the girl. We went outside and got through an underpass. We were probably heading to a cinema. Later on I was close to my appartment building with the same girl. Something happened. Probably I killed someone or someone attacked us and ran away. My girl was soaking with blood/water. I offered her to come to my appartment and take a bath. Somewhere on the way she kissed me. Passionately. Later when I got into my appartment with her, I put my hand on her shoulder, but she moved it away and complained about something. I needed her so badly, but i couldn't have her. Never.
      Got woken up by my first alarm but didnt manage to wild (fell asleep).

    9. A strange machine, The man with invincible teeth, the sexy zombie and more.

      by , 01-30-2011 at 11:37 PM
      This entire dream was in black and white, so, yeah.

      I'm in a small two room building. I don't know where the building is, but it appears to be a street outside. In the first room ( the lobby), there are several chairs in a circular shape, and filing cabinets line the walls. At one end is the entrance, a glass door. At the other, the door to the second room. Three people go into the third room, one at a time.
      Inside, it is very dim. The only thing in the room is some sort of press (not printing). Two man and a women go in and use the press. The first man gets invincible teeth. the second is simply invincible. The third, the woman, is turned into some sort of zombie. ( She didn't appear to be decaying, like most zombies, so maybe she was just the sexiest cannibal I've ever seen) The dream ends as I'm talking to the woman.

    10. Strange currency.

      by , 01-30-2011 at 11:19 PM (Various adventures of WK)
      I remember being in some kind of arena or something similar sitting in the stands watching whatever was going on. After a while I followed some DCs down a hole into this underground tunnle complex underneath the arena. We were all standing around in the tunnel talking when I saw a piece of paper on the ground about 20 feet away. I ran over to it and picked it up and it was a hudred dollar bill. I stuffed it in my wallet next to the 20 I already have and I walked on. A little bit later I found two more 20s. I was thinking that I had the luckiest day ever. A little bit later the dream changed and I was telling some people about the money I found. I pulled my wallet out to look at the money. I had three 20s like I was supposed to but the 100 had turned into something else. It looked like it was supposed to be money but it didnt look like anything I had ever seen before. It was shaped kinda like a 5 euro but in the top left it said 10 and in the bottom right it said 100 and it had a large picture on it that reminded me of burger king but wasnt exactly burger king.

      Thats all I remember of the dream and I never became lucid

    11. Weird Guy and Kitty Cats

      by , 01-30-2011 at 10:44 PM (Krista's Dream Journal)
      Dream - Lucid

      I was at my house in the front yard. There was a guy there that looked like my ex from high school, but he also kinda looked like another one of my ex's from the beginning of college. I knew he wasn't really the guy from high school, but for the life of me, I couldn't figure out who he was. He said some really weird things to me, and they didn't even really make that much sense in the dream. I can't remember exactly what was said though. I know that he liked me and wanted to be with me, but I didn't want to be with him, because I was with Ryan.

      At some point, there was a white cat with multicolored pastel spots on her back. I named her Sparkles.

      Then, I was trying to handle my real life cat, Belle. I would pick her up and she would scratch the shit out of me. I took her to the vet and had to put her down on the ground because of this. She ran around the lobby of the vet's office. Then, something about the guy from earlier, weed, and my laptop, and these little clip thingies that could come on and off of the lapop.

      Again, I took Belle to the vet. I got in my mom's car, and was holding Belle in my arms, because her carrier was too small. We got to the vet, which was, in the dream, located in the area that my dad's office is in waking life. She was fighting me again, so I let go of her, and she took off running out of the car and down the street. My friend Katie was there with me, and she took off after Belle. She didn't catch her, and Belle was nowhere to be seen. I was very upset. Then, I saw a group of dogs of all different kinds outside the vet's office. I started to hear birds singing, which jarred me awake.


      Then, I woke up, and realized that my alarm hadn't gone off for work. I had heard the birds in my dream, which triggered me to freak out and wake up, because birds should not be singing when I have to get up for work. Fortunately, I made it on time, but I realized I had set my alarm for 5:30pm instead of am...whoops.

    12. Lucid at last!

      Date: 31/1/11
      Lucid
      Non-Lucid
      ----------
      I was walking through our auditorium when I looked through one of the classroom windows and saw all these people dancing. They were doing some butterfly dance. I stood there for a while peering through the windows, I was jealous of them. I couldn't dance nearly half as well as they could. The teacher was our old art teacher. There were two otherpeople also gazing through the windows. Eventually I walked away.

      Suddenly I was a few metres ahead of where I had last been. The sky was a different colour and I had the feeling that time had passed. I checked my watch and the date was the 2nd of February. I was sort of frightened. I pulled out my mobile phone and called my mum. "It happened again," I said. She told me just to go home and lie down. I wnet to my classroom to tell my teacbher but instead of my normal teacher it was my violin teacher. She was wearing a regal blue dress. I felt guilty because we had a concert coming up and I didn't want to disappoint her so I went inside.

      I forgot the rest I think there was something about a pool though...
      ----------
      Method: DILD
      I was in our old house. My mum was talking to me as we walked down the stairs. I felt sure I was in reality but I did and RC check just in case. I pinched my nose and I could still breathe. I did it again just to double check. That's when I realised I was in a dream. I had always wanted to see what the finger through hand RC looked like in a dream so I did that and my finger went through my hand. I was not getting over excited and everything was really clear but I rubbed my hand just in case. I walked into the kitchen and spun around in circles a few times to see what it did - nothing really changed. Everything was so clear it was an exact replica of my old house. I was worried about how my dream recall would be and I didn't want to wake myself up.

      My dad walked into his room and I laughed because he was wearing those one-piece baby pajamas. They were blue and had flying pigs on them. I remembered that my goal was to find my dreamguide. My mum called out, "She's always in the pantry," and my dad laughed. I walked over to the pantry and looked inside. It was exactly how a pantry should look. Then I closed the door and opened it again - but she was still not there. I gave up on that and decided to try flying. I put my arms in the air superman style and jumped. I shot up into the air and I suddenly wasn't in my house anymore. I then became conscious of my sleeping body and tried to stay in the dream but it didn't seem as real anymore.

      I woke up and had to turn off my alarm clock (first time I've ever had one but my parents are making me). Wish I could have been lucid longer, but still really happy that I got my second lucid!!!

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I was in a city walking along with J when I saw T. She wanted to go to the disco. There was a long line to enter but they let T in first, then J and finally me, but when it was my turn the bouncer asked me who I was with and criticized my shoes. The disco was large and had a rectangular shape. There were quite a few people but not so many that you couln't confortably move between places. There was a huge ball pit and J went down a slide to enter. When I did I saw T hanging on a bar above the entrance of the ball pit and she let go after I had landed among all the balls, which I realized had the shape of bell peppers. I tried to swim across to the exit but it was hard, everyone was doing it faster than me.

      my dream was interesting last night, albit if it was non-lucid. what happened was i was at a school dance, i went with someone, but then they left (maybe to do with me watching napoleon dynamite before i fell asleep) so i was alone. then a girl who im friends with and quite 'like' said she would be my date. i then went outside to see my friend jake, who was worried ecause he killed his pokemon requasa (dont know how to spell it) and this guy came up to us, and gave us head gear which, wait for it, lets you simulate lucid dreams. we used it to make another pokemon, which jake caught, but i still thought it was reality, annoyingly. there was then this massive battle, but i woke up.

      wanna know the best thing about the dream world?

      A huge dragon was before me.

      -Dream Skip- Hahah.

      A bunch of monsters or creatures with power attacked at once when someone ordered it and the dragon turned a very dingy color and looked as if it had been mummified.
