    1. Partial Solar eclipse - fragment ,semi lucid

      by , 01-04-2018 at 01:52 PM (Nef's dream journal)
      The dream is a messy mush , random things ,random images projections I see , a surreal pile of visions. Then It slowly starts to stabilize now I start to receive the dreamplot; soon there will be a partial solar eclipse, in about a few minutes, I am away in my car driving somewhere on a highway. My friends want me to come home and enjoy this eclipse with them but it's too late .
      Then suddenly I see a shadow break onto the athmosphere, all things are becoming darker, and I also hear a deep boom.
      I look to the left and somehow push onto the backside of the car and through the darkened glasses of of the car I see a giant sun and a giant moon crossing paths with the sun and covering one fourth of it , it was an amazing sight.
      I get semi lucid cuz the sun and the moon was so big it felt quite shocking to see.

      Dream fragment where I'm in my back yard from my old house in the woods. There's a tv there and I think I'm playing mario party with a few other people.

      I'm back in high school in the back of the school. There's a girl from my grade who I think is attractive. At some point I'm looking at her instagram and her pictures are very revealing. The back parking lot always has this weird upper platform on the left side next to the soccer field where people are standing on top, I think it's made of wood. I'm eating some sort of fruit roll up thing which I decide to hand off to someone else. I'm walking out of the parking lot towards the football stadium. That area is dark and my surroundings are getting very dark. A vehicle that seemed a little bit evil drove past me and it felt like someone riding in it was staring me down. I had a blanket or cloak around me so I wrap it tighter around my head and body.
    3. Dream - The Violent Hippo Encounter & A Change Of Heart & Family In America

      Date of Dream: THU 4 JAN - 2018



      Dream No. 257 - Separated Sections

      Dream 257 A - The Violent Hippo Encounter (Nightmare!)
      I don't remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, it was night time and I was in some area with low levels of water. I saw a raccoon in blue coming in from the distant black rooftops... It was Sly. When he was close enough to me, he hopped off a rooftop and scuttled towards me. He said hello to me and some other short sentence that I don't remember. Then I heard a thud behind me; I turned around to notice it was the fellow hippo Murray.

      At first, I thought it was just going to be a friendly encounter... I was wrong. At first, he looked normal but he started raising his voice at me. He said to get away from them and not hurt Sly. I actually tried reasoning with Murray but it didn't seem to work. He turned nasty and said he was going to kill me. Then the most awful thing happened, the dream distorted him and boy did he look ugly! His mask nearly fell off and his eyes went all wild and beady. In addition to that, his teeth turned into those as sharp as a shark and two teeth became millions.

      He was now just growling at me with all his new multiple teeth showing. I was in a panic now, constantly telling Murray to stop. No matter what I did, he was inching closer and closer to me. In the meantime, Sly walked past again lifting his blue hat off to me as a friendly gesture. The turtle Bentley was walking beside Sly and gave me a quick enthusiastic wave. While Murray was still tormenting me, Sly kept walking backwards and forwards, trying to offer friendly distractions. I get the idea that the gang really wanted to be friends with me but Murray was in paranoia mode and because I was a little girl to them, he thought that making me his dinner would really made sure I never went back for a second attempt.

      Back to the dream; I did see one instance of the police fox Carmelita patrolling the rooftops but it was very brief. Now things were getting bad and Murray was getting scarier and scarier. He was uncomfortably close and just as he was about to open his mouth to stuff me into it; I was forced to wake up.

      Dream 257 B - A Change Of Heart
      I started off in some unknown area but just like in Dream A, there was a very low level of water where I was; even if it was just a centimetre deep. I turned around and noticed Murray but didn't end up freaking out straight away; he was back to his normal figure. I noticed that he was significantly larger than me, approximately three times as big.

      Instead of being freaked out, I just stood there, waiting for him to say something. Eventually, he came up to me and said something like “Hey, I'm sorry about what happened in the last dream. But now that I'm back to normal, the dreams' gotta go back to normal too”. For a moment, I look confused but when I looked down at the water, I realised the place was going to flood and I started panicking. The water shot up so quickly but before I knew it, Murray had grabbed me and I was sitting on his arm, waiting for the dream to do what it was going to do next.

      I ended up by myself in some school environment, where all the teachers and fellow classmates had American accents. I don't completely remember what happened in those scenes but I was very confused and gave the teachers and students lessons of my own knowledge. That's all I can remember about that dream.

      Dream 257 C - Family In America
      I was in some shop with my parents that resembled David Jones but then mention was made that we were in America. In this dream, I seemed to be impressed with all the stock at these shops and I said something like how there isn't near as much on sale in Australia. This scene was very short and soon, we were walked around other shops in this big mall. I was marvelling at all the colourful jewellery I saw through store windows.

      The next scene showed that we were on a bus. I forgot the conversation overall but I can remember that it was something about going to another hotel. There was this American woman on the bus that was in our conversation as well. I was relieved that we were staying in a low floor hotel which didn't require the use of lifts. My mum said that we're going to this place called the Grand Hotel and this made me freak out. In the dream, I thought that the Grand Hotel would have gazillions of floors which meant regular use of lifts. That's all I can remember about this dream.

    4. My Not So Impressive 200th Dream Entry

      by , 01-03-2018 at 11:46 PM (Hopeless Wanderings)
      Just a fragment and some short dreams but really trying to work on dream recall!

      -in the mountains, beautiful mountains

      -I was at a Taylor Swift concert, I got front row. TW was singing and, at one point, held onto my shoulder and sang to me. I was sooo happy and was thinking, "if only I could have gotten a picture with her, but oh well, just this memory is enough!" and then she went back on the stage and started singing a song by another artist.

      -there was a group of kids and a male swimming instructor. All the kids were black girls and had matching hair and bathing suits. The swim instructor told them to do front flips into the water, and one by one they did, except for one kid who wanted to show off. She got a running start and jumped so far she ended up reaching the ledge on the other side of the pool and crashing into it.

    5. Pumping more Meditation time in Waking Life

      by , 01-03-2018 at 10:29 PM
      It has been recommended to (1) increase awareness, (2) critical assessment to waking life, and (3) memory capacity. One of the ways to increase awareness is through meditation, something I am familiar with since I have been working on lucidity. In collaboration with meditation, knowing dreamsigns that occur in dreams and in waking life also increase awareness.

      What I shall dedicate myself to for more lucidity is the following:
      (1) 10 minutes of varying meditation (either breathing or the [LINK_TO_ANCHOR]Dream Yoga awareness meditation suggested by Sivason[/LINK_TO_ANCHOR])
      (2) Reality checking a recurring dreamsign

      Number (1) is impressive as there are meditative methods, before Western science has its eyes on lucidity, to practice in waking life for preparation of lucidity. While this is obvious to many people, I find dream yoga to be a unifying theory of diverse meditative methods for lucidity. It is more critical for me to have a paradigm to work with rather than a splitter of ideas to work from.

      Number (2) is important because I notice that in my dreams I don't have my pesonal monologue. In my waking life, I like to think to myself and play with ideas when being idle. In dreams, I don't have my essential psychological process from waking life, and I noticed this during my second lucid dream & my meditation. Therefore, I need to do a reality check when I notice I am not talking to myself.

      This is a lot of stuff to work for lucidity, but I always find this stuff rewarding as even if I don't have a lucid dream at the end of the day I still have wonderful dreams to work from.

    6. Escaping the Underground Facility

      by , 01-03-2018 at 08:39 PM
      I was in some underground facility with a lot of other people. The whole place resembled the ISS space station on the inside, but we weren't in space. My dream is a bit hazy due to me waking up and falling asleep back into the same dream, so the story is split into two parts.

      Something happened to where the whole place was about to blow up, and everyone had to evacuate the area as soon as possible. I could hear explosions everywhere as we all ran, and people everywhere were scrambling to the exit. Something happened to where me and some other guy who looked to be in his 50s couldn't make it to the exit in time, and the air-tight giant doors were sealed shut. The guy told me to follow him so we could find another way out. We eventually found two washing machines in what seemed to be a laundry room and the middle-aged man opened the door to one of them. There was a piece of aluminum taped onto the back wall of the inside of the washing machine, and he ripped it off without hesitation. A small hole was revealed with a tunnel leading to somewhere and the 50-year old man jumped in feet first. I did the same, and we both crawled our way through the cylinder shaped ducts. I remember how cold it was in there, it was almost freezing (possibly due to how cold it was in the real world)! We eventually found a way out and barely made it just in time before the people who escaped earlier were about to close the second door. That was when we heard a giant explosion, but the place didn't come down yet. We then got word that two more people were down there. The man and I decided to go back and save them, but that's when I temporarily woke up.
      After instantly going back to sleep into the same dream, I found myself back down in the area that was about to bow up. The middle-aged man and I found the two other men, and together we all ran towards the laundry room with the washing machines. We quickly told them what to do, and told them to follow our lead. For some reason, we all had on black coats this time around, and I assumed it was for the cold air ducts. As soon as I ripped off the aluminum foil and jumped in, I kind of got stuck due to my big coat. I eventually squeezed in, but when the second person jumped in behind me, it suddenly became very crowded and hot. Me being claustrophobic and all, quickly began unzipping my coat and used all my power to squirm out of it. Unfortunately, that's when my dream ended.
      (Found out that I had too many covers on top of me.)

      I do remember watching the movie, Armageddon for the first time a few nights before I had this dream.
    7. February 28, 2015 (L) | Bike, Tornado, Airborne

      by , 01-03-2018 at 03:45 PM (Fantastical Adventures)
      -1-I spawned on a bike, saw an F5 tornado centered on the church building, and tried to bike to safety after walking with C to the southeast. Then, the tornado started chasing me. I continued to bike in a straight line on the same road until I had to stop for some reason. When I got going again, it was in the wrong direction, towards the tornado. I was like, “I’m such an idiot.” Somehow, I biked to an area with a Skyrim campfire, shack, and house. I biked to the house and entered it just as the tornado hit me. Now, the house was trash, and I was airborne. Next the tornado and a guy in a small shuttle thing spawned near the end of the same road. We were nearing the coast, and suddenly a giant plastic had pushed the shuttle thing towards the water with a good speed.
      -2-C, some others, and I spawned in new york. We crossed a bridge to do something, then crossed back over. Later, both the Brooklyn Bridge and the concrete bridge we were on were closed.
      -3-There were these buses that me and one other person were in. A giant alien was tearing the silver one to try to get to me. It was moving, and it had my scent, so I jumped off and ran back to the stationary, yellow one. Suddenly, young link spawned with Majora’s Mask. Later Young Link and I (who is now Samus) entered the first room of a space station filled with hostile aliens. I shot them all down easily. Link had only 5% health left somehow, so when I shot the container next to him, he died. I then loaded a state to before the aliens were killed, and I killed them all again, this time leaving Link with a lot more health than last time. At the far corner, there was a door that said “Warrior Room”. I decided to avoid that room.
      [New (L) Scene]
      I was in the kitchen, trying to change my leg structure unsuccessfully.

    9. A Nimbin Man with Balloons

      by , 01-03-2018 at 12:04 PM
      Morning of January 3, 2018. Wednesday.



      My dream begins in an undefined setting. I do not possess any conscious self threads other than a vague association with Nimbin and Tuntable Falls (which I had written about in a recent entry). I am outside, though there are ambiguous shifts where I am also inside at the same time at certain points.

      An unfamiliar male of about thirty is present. Apparently, the police are following him, believing him to be carrying drugs. He has a large backpack and some sort of oversized balloon. Eventually, the balloon grows larger and proves to be that of a dinosaur, a tyrannosaurus (though there is no implied threat as it is just a balloon).

      Until the last segment, I am not implied to be a direct part of the scenario. However, I am curiously linked to the dynamics of the balloon. When it expands and grows taller, it seems my dream self is also growing larger and taller, though not implied to be seen by the other dream characters.

      Somehow, another balloon is present and expands. I believe it is meant to be a rabbit, though there is not that much focus on it.

      A third balloon begins to fill with air and grow large and tall, but this time it is a reindeer, somewhat anthropomorphic. Again, I am linked to the balloon, feeling myself growing larger and even hitting my head on the ceiling (though it is not painful) as I watch the reindeer’s head bump the ceiling to my left, even though we are also implied to be outside.

      From here, I am annoyed by the presence of RAS (the police) via the preconscious. What started out as the usual return flight waking symbolism (as a flying reindeer is a flight symbol, which truncated the rabbit symbolism of which symbolizes being deeper in sleep) to vestibular system symbolism, triggers an odd level of semi-lucidity to where I am ready to shoot everyone (which symbolizes real-time RAS mediation of the dream state). Bumping my head on the ceiling means a part of my mind is holding me in the dream state, though as I am only semi-lucid, I am unsure of my waking space status and physical orientation. Still, I shoot about six officers in the forehead. They are ducking behind some cover (some sort of flat vertical structure), but I get them one at a time in my semi-lucid waking space. (As I have written in past entries, the association with the man possibly carrying illicit drugs is a dream state potential reinduction factor, as they relate to altering the level of consciousness or unconsciousness.)

    10. Dream - Grandpa Returns

      Date of Dream: WED 3 JAN - 2018



      Dream No. 256 - Grandpa Returns
      Nightmare!

      The dream started at my old house when I was planning to go on a bike ride by myself. I envisaged riding all the way to Cranbourne and I would stop part way there to pull out Dreamy WB on the phone and have a lengthy chat with her. I then went to my mum who was in the kitchen. I told her that before officially going on the bike ride; I would check my phone to make sure it was fully charged. I then set off on the bike to grandma's house which is also my current house. I saw my grandma but forgot what she was doing.

      I then went into the backyard and saw my dad doing some paving work with a radio playing in the background. We spoke briefly and then he came up with me to the laundry. He kept nagging me to bring these snacks with me called “Fix-its”. I said to him “Dad, the more times you say something; the less likely I am to do it”. Then I walked off into the dining room when I peered my head into the front room and saw my first unusual sight of the dream.

      I saw an old man with white hair standing near the heater, facing the wall. Slowly, he turns around and starts approaching me into the area where I was. As soon as he enters the dining room, he just stood there; a smile slowly bending into a creepy shape. When his smile had reached the widest point, he says in a muffled tone, “how are you?”. I was completely paralysed, thinking to myself; “how the **** are you still alive?”. This dream felt so real, I didn't even think of calling for help. Rather, I gave the loudest, most high pitched screams until I was forced to wake up.

    11. Meeting another dreamer ?

      by , 01-02-2018 at 10:05 PM (Nef's dream journal)
      In an american like city in winter I've been walking around , I met a guy, he looked like the chubby average gamer guy , then we made eye contact and started to walk in circles like if we are about to fight. I asked who is he to which he said that he wont let me know who he is ,and ran away, he threw objects mostly clothes at me as a distraction , I tried to chase him but he got away. He got me inside this weird little room full of rugs and other objects, I tried to break out of it using the force, I concentrated, thing started to float around me , but it didnt work . I lost my lucidity then shortly after that I woke up.

      He was pretty swift, knew how to use telekinesis and summoning objects.
      When he answered my question , it was like a mix of speech and thoughts. It felt so weird like if someone says something into your head and you can sense it ,hear it.

    12. Dreaming - Meditation = Bad Recall

      by , 01-02-2018 at 08:45 PM
      After learning some dream yoga meditations, I wanted to give my brain some time to wrap its head around these meditations before I started doing them. I learned some meditation methods, such as mindful breathing, and I used them before January 2018 for me to have quality dream recall.

      On January 1, 2018, I decided not to use any meditation before sleeping. The dreams were too blurry for my taste, thus concluding that meditations are necessary for lucidity.

    13. Dream - A Clash Of Company

      by , 01-02-2018 at 11:18 AM
      Date of Dream: TUE 2 JAN - 2018



      Dream No. 255 - A Clash Of Company

      I don't remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was only my way to some cinema complex with a mixture of Killester and past Camelot, high school students. On the way there, just before the entrance, I came past WB who seemed annoyed at me like usual. This time, I tried going up to her and talking to her... I forgot what I specifically said though. Whatever I said worked as she sighed and kept me company for the remainder of the dream.

      When me and her entered the cinema, we unfortunately parted ways because she wanted to sit with her “legit” friends being BT, EL, etc. I panicked when I realised she was going far away from me and I reminded her to 'keep her word'. WB ended up sitting in a seat third from the aisle. Just as I was about to claim the second seat from the aisle, JSe randomly comes up an hogs that spot. At the start, I don't mind as I end up talking to both WB and JSe. As movie previews are playing, JSe is awkwardly cuddling up to me.

      It's when the movie started that I tried to get them to be quiet but I couldn't. They were talking loudly whereas I was only whispering; but I observed that JSe was the primary distraction. One of the teachers, Ms Du., had noticed as she came to separate us. I started panicking again and I asserted to her “But I've been trying to tell them to be quiet this whole time!”. She answered, “And that's why you get to keep your seat; they have to move”.

      I let the dream world know that I was 'upset'. I said to myself, “I've become upset and so I have to go to sleep”. I shut my eyes in the dream and envision Dreamy WB coming to try and make the situation right. No matter how hard I tried to visualise, it was still all black like I was only in a light sleep. I then entered this odd scene where I picked up a gun in a shape of a barrel and JSe was standing beside me... I did not look happy towards him. I told him, “I'm trying to get my dream guide!”. I then picked up this gun and weird hypnotic shapes of pink and green lasers were firing out of it. Nothing happened in respect to summoning my dream guide but something had fixed JSe.

      He wasn't in the dream anymore and I went over to where WB was sitting and I sat next to her. We only lightly chatted now and no teacher came up to us. The dream scene then changed to my house in the dining room where WB was still there in the same outfit that she was wearing at the movies, which was the Killester Winter Uniform with the high bun hairstyle. She asked me if I knew any places in Croatia and I told her “I know a place called Bjelovar/Osijek as those are the places my parents were born; do you know any?”. She said she only knew one place but I forgotten the name she gave. That's all I can remember about this dream.

    15. Desire is a Compassion Burned Fire

      by , 01-01-2018 at 09:11 PM (Hopeless Wanderings)
      Happy New Year!! I got a great start to mine - a nice solid lucid!
      For the past week I have been working hard to try to lucid dream and remember my dreams. It's starting to pay off! though my dream recall still SUCKS.

      early dreams:

      I was in the mountains. It was so incredibly beautiful and I wanted to move there but things kept holding me back and I was so sad about it. I wanted to stay in those snow covered towering high mountains forever.

      I was in caves.
      I was lucid and and excited. It seemed to last awhile and I let the dream take me wherever, part of which I remember crawling through caves. Eventually though, I lost the lucidity and the caves became scary.

      My boyfriend woke me and said goodbye and went off to work. I knew I had to try to fall asleep so I could get a lucid in!

      I was in my old house with my parents, sister, and grandpa. It was painted all white and empty except furniture. Everyone was sad and stressed for some reason. My sister was eating something like trail mix, she started choking and I said, "are you ok??" and she says, "no" but I realize she is fake choking. My dad says something like, "she just wanted you to practice your emotions." WTF. I was angry. I stormed off to my old room and there I find my mom, smoking a cigarrette, and my grandpa on the floor with his eyes closed, he looked dead but wasn't. I say, "hey, I need a cigarette!(neither of us smoke IRL) and take it from her and take a huff. Then my sis comes in and joins.

      I am in my bed, which is kind of like a bunk bed, and start going to sleep. This is a dream itself though, and my mom is walking around. I try to block her out, close my eyes. I get warped into a
      new dream, I am standing in the living room. It's night time and I'm staring at the giant window that's decorated in xmas decorations and a bunch of lights. I focus on one to stabilize the dream, and it works. I don't know what to do, but I don't want to stay inside so I go out into the night. I notice a few things, like the tree in the front yard by the driveway, a giant blow up snow globe santa thing, and on the street two cars are parked. Standing by the cars are two girls, around my age. I walk up and see they are digging through stuff in their cars. I stand in front of one of the girls. She has blond straight hair, with smokey makeup and long earrings. We start dancing and a song blares in the background, it sounds to be a young but seasoned singer and I try to remember the lyrics. "Desire is a compassion burned fire" We dance and it's amazing and then we KISS and it's fire. I decide to wake up after this because I thought my mom had been waiting for me to wake up, even though that part was just a dream. I wake up in my real bed.
