Semi Lucid; my subcon is explaining to me/ I am explaining to myself how every one of my dream characters is just an aspect of myself and/or my worldview that is distinct enough from myself that it becomes personified as a separate entity. My subcon is explaining that when one aspect completely owns the dream it can become something completely different depending upon what aspects of myself are present within the dream.

Marcus' Dream:

I am in a sort of spectator view mode; that will be the case for all of these dreams. I am only able to witness, never interact. Since only one aspect of myself is present the other dream characters cannot possibly be present either. There is a fleet of space warships situated in front of a blue swirling gas planet with rings. (Neptune) There are different classes with distinct roles; Carriers that carry both manned and unmanned bombers and interceptors; Missile cruisers that carry advanced fusion weapons; and Warships that carry massive railguns. The fleet is escorting various cargo and mining ships that are looking to mine the rings and moons of the planet for resources vital to the war effort.

An alien fleet appears farther out from the planet. While Marcus' ships are somewhat typical "Sci Fi Flying boxes" the alien ships are brightly colored and have organic forms. (They looked kind of like Covenant ships from Halo). He organized the entire fleet. The way he commands things feels like the movie Ender's Game. He creates formations of unmanned fighters to protect the vital fleet members and begins dividing the fleet off into smaller groups. Each one will use various gravitational interactions with the moons to attempt to strike the aliens from multiple angles.

The larger alien fleet begins moving in. They do not break apart like his did and simply advance straight for the flagship that Marcus is on, that has remained in its same orbit. Before long they are struck from all sides by surprise and the alien fleet falls into disarray. They attempt retaliation but Marcus' ships are protected by what he calls "Onion Shields", essentially instead of having one powerful shield generator his ships have multiple weaker generators creating layered shields for redundancy. Funnily enough, when struck, the shields will also glow bright blue and be the shape of an Onion, a product of how the magnetic fields of multiple shield generators interact.

The Aliens eventually begin to organize their fleet and form a counteroffensive, having vastly superior numbers. Marcus thinks how he anticipated this and took into account the rotation of nearby moons. We then see, from the point of view of the moon several huge laser cannons mounted on the surface with miles of solar panels powering them rotate into view. The cannons fire drive the alien fleet back. The remaining alien ships jump to lightspeed in retreat.

The dream then somehow transitions to another dream that overlapped it in some way. In the dream we were sneaking into an old building together and we came into a room where there were Lego Star Wars sets. (With there of course also being sets of the various spacecraft Marcus and the aliens had utilized in their battle.) The room had supposedly been locked since before the first star wars movie was even made but there were sets from all the movies there. I remarked how well planned out the story was for sets from all the movies to have been made this far in the past.

In some way the entire battle never really happened and what was happening was we were just playing with our Legos. I was for some reason very disappointed with that fact. The dream scene started changing to look more like Marcus' house just with a big pile of various Lego sets on the floor. Marcus wanted to read and I wanted to build my own ship but I complained that all of his Legos were gray and I couldn't put any color into my design.

One thing that I think was sort of funny was that he had a collection of globes that I never noticed before in a row on a shelf. Each of the globes was for a different planet, most of which were not part of our solar system, and they were all to scale so they were all different sizes depending upon the planet. Including a globe of a gas planet that we had been using during our play session with the ships.

Jack's Dream:

He is riding his motorcycle down a road in the desert. It looks like the American southwest with mesas and such. He comes into a town and that I suppose was a town for people who did cattle ranching and such because a lot of the people were wearing cowboy hats and stuff.

Then Chuck Norris, Lightning McQueen and the Monopoly guy (Okay... Interesting choice of characters. ) Lightning McQueen wanted Jack to drive him but because this was a talking car this was also meant to be sexual in some way. Jack didn't realize this and opened his door and Lighting McQueen's brain fell out but was still attached by the brainstem. Jack was trying to put it back inside and Chuck Norris (who was like the town sheriff) wrote him a ticket for improper treatment of a motor vehicle.

I don't remember any more specific chains of events but I do remember the general plot. The parts I remember were that Jack (like in the plot of Cars) had to fix up the town for committing a crime and was therefore stuck there. Meanwhile two girls were fighting over his attention. One of the girls was descended from the leader original settlers who came to the valley during the gold rush and the other girl was from a native American tribe who had been forced to share the land when the settlers arrived, so their feuding was amplified to the point that their families came into conflict and there was fear that the whole town would fall into a civil war.

Somehow the whole issue was resolved when Jack was caught by the families having a threesome with both the girls at the same time and it was supposed to be like Romeo and Juliet but I was just confused. This got the families to realize that they were not so different after all. Since the Monopoly guy who was also the mayor and was the most senior member of the settlers' family, he relieved him of his punishment for his crime and his dream ended he rode off on his motorcycle.

Manei's Dream:

It felt like the whole dream took place on this beach we stayed at for a couple days when we vacationed in Hawaii. Only the hotel was not there. (In fact any man-made structures were absent.) The dream was sort of like a more realistic version of Minecraft because there was a holographic menu that she could bring up that held items and options and her objective was to craft and create a suitable living environment. The dream environment had certain modifications that made it easier and faster to do things that would normally take a long time. The things I remember her doing (in no particular order since I can't remember)

~At one point she was carving in the side of a palm tree with an obsidian dagger. She carved her full name (Maneimonehi Qui Tarr) into the tree vertically. Her writing looked somewhat archaic and distorted but I could still make out the lettering. I'm not sure if the font is her way of writing or was a product of carving letters into a tree or an actual way of writing.

~At another point she needed to acquire food. Since she has had water manipulation powers she apparently can also hold her breath for extended periods of time, allowing her to swim deep into the ocean and spear fish to cook and eat.

~At yet another point she crafted a potion that would allow her to change her appearance using various plant ingredients on the island.

~The final thing was she built a house. This was the part that seemed the most like Minecraft. Only the concept of inventory did not apply. Henceforth she had to cut down several dozen trees and manually carry the logs and assemble the house herself. At some point I manifested into the dream again, still semi lucid.

I started building the roof onto the house to help her out. My character seemed to have some kind of inventory as I was simply able to project a beam out from my hand that created a thatched roof on the house. I went back and fourth in a lawnmower pattern until I was done. We went inside to decorate the interior together. The navigation of the menu was confusing. I tried placing and removing several items. This was the part that seemed the most like Minecraft. The only difference between our characters was that she apparently had to acquire her resources manually while I had unlimited access to everything through a menu.

She asked me for some gold and I gave her a big stack of gold bars. I then tried decorating again and managed to add a bunch of potted plants, rugs and paintings on the walls. I think most of the paintings were like ink paintings on parchment with Chinese calligraphy. I was having trouble placing things symmetrically, though I eventually got things to work. Manei then showed me she had made a golden safe and put iron bars inside.

She then used the potion that let her change her appearance. She said she was tired of having wavy hair because it was hard to brush. She kept making changes to herself. I remember at one point she changed her height to be much shorter and at another point she gave herself slightly lighter skin and freckles. But when she finished in the menu she pressed 'cancel' instead of 'save' by accident and reverted to how she normally looked.

We then went outside of the house and the house had been moved somewhere else. I was under attack by zombies and had to get back inside, but I fell into a hole and lost a lot of my health. When I went back inside, Manei was gone and the house was like a store. There was a guy with a tophat and steampunk goggles selling potions. I bought a whole bunch because I had unlimited money from having an infinite inventory, but for some reason couldn't just access the potions myself. I then saw a crossbow in the corner and decided to take it with me.

I went back outside and took a better look around. I also became fully lucid at this point and went outside with the expectation of seeing an interesting dream scene, but not before stabilizing by feeling the crossbow in my hand.

I went outside and the entire dream was different. The sky was night with green and purple auras dancing overhead. I was in a village of buildings, similarly styled to the house Manei had built. Some of them were built up on high, rickety looking wooden stilts. The ground was covered with snow-white coarse crystalline sand that I examined in my hand for additional stabilization.

The next thing I noticed was a female police officer yelling at a giant mushroom with a face who told the mushroom to stop 'sporeating' (apparently a term for releasing spores) because he was giving people in the village allergies. The mushroom took out a pipe and began smoking weed that made the policewoman even more mad.

I remember thinking "bring on the weird, I wanna see how weird this dream can get". A giant ostrich looking bird ran up to me and bowed down. I figured it was indicating for me to get on because it had a saddle and bags of supplies strapped to its side, so I got on and started riding it out of the town. The dream went into third person and I saw myself. I was wearing a long blue cloak and had all of the potions that I had previously purchased strapped onto my belt in order of color, making a rainbow of bottles. I saw the ringed planet from before hanging in the sky along with dozens of moons, only affirming the lucidity further. As I rode out of the village I saw I was on what seemed like a salt flat with giant crystalline structures jutting from the surface, and fungal bulbs growing freely in the place of grass.

I then saw a headless skeleton wearing gold armor that had a small group of zombies around it and it challenged me to a battle. The battle was turn based, like in an RPG where each side could only attack once, then had to afford the other side an option to attack.

The skeleton a magic spell that caused a bunch of shovels to appear and dug a hole that me and the ostrich fell into but the ostrich flapped its wings. I didn't seem capable of flight but it was able to fly just long enough to get out of the hole before the zombies could go in and attack us.

The ostrich then breathed green fire at the enemies but the made a magical shield and blocked it.

The skeleton took out a Yu-Gi-Oh card and played it down so small red dragon would appear. The dragon bit off and ate the ostrich's leg but it got replaced almost instantaneously with a holographic leg.

I then saw I had the option to attack and thought that I wanted to use the crossbow but it was now just a regular bow that was named "Bow of the Dodecagon". I knocked and drew an arrow and a dozen other bows appeared in the air above and beside me. When I fired all the arrows released and killed the dragon.

The skeleton then removed one of his arms and stuck it in his groin and pulled out a sword with that arm making some kind of phallic metaphor. He attacked the ostrich and did 838 damage.

The ostrich got mad because it was at low health and could do a special attack. Its holographic leg turned into a holographic machine gun and it fired and killed all of the zombie henchmen leaving only the skeleton. This caused the headless skeleton to surrender the battle. He pooped out a bag of in-game money.

Apparently during the battle you automatically used your potions to do special attacks and I was upset about this because the potions that I had bought were rare and I didn't get enough money back from the skeleton to buy all of them again. I tried to go back to the store anyway but it had been replaced with a 1950's style diner. Jack was there and we sat down and started talking and I lost the dream.

I attempted Advanced task 2,
basic task 1,
Bonus task,
Flying saucer ToTY

I failed basic task 1 and but completed the other 3.

My dream guide screwed me over, it was the opposite of fun. This is what happened.

I can't exactly remember what happened before this but I remember standing on a blank floor with no walls or anything in any direction. I remembered the task chain I memorized the night before and I got to work. I waved my hand and opened a rift above me where a flying saucer slowly descended out of. It looked like a sterotipical depiction of a flying saucer. After a walkway dropped, I entered. (At this point, I thought it was smooth sailing completing the rest)

The ship seemed to move using 4 different 6 sided dice with different numbers and fractions on each side of the dice. No idea how to use those, let's go manually. I imagined the ship starting up and it started acending and flying forward fast. Instead of flying through space, it appeared to travel through "flight gates" and one opened up infront of the ship. I passed through and ended up at the bioluminescent forest from avatar. (I was very confident at this point but still needed to complete the last task)

I get off the ship and look around but nothing. Nobody. I look around for a while and can't find anyone or anything. As I'm contemplating telling the glowing plants that I come in peace and asking them to teach me something, I hear a lightning bolt strike behind me and with a flash, my DG is there. She said: good luck completing the tasks without any aliens. I got a little pissed and told her sarcastically "Hello Olivia, I come in peace and want to learn your ways. Won't you out of the kindness of your own heart teach me something?" She frowned and locked an object in the sky that looked like a sun. I couldn't despawn it and it wouldn't move. The bioluminescent plants that were shining now dimmed. My DG said "you stayed up till midnight and now it's bright outside. Deal with it. I got a bit angry and she pulled the sun into the earth which sent myself and my ship flying. Fastforward a dream.

I have a dream that I'm in my house getting food and I hear a bang. I look outside and the flying saucer from the last dream is lodged into the side of my house like a frisbee. My internal dialogue at that moment was. "Jokes on you. That's a free LD for me. I spent the rest of that LD wandering down a spiral staircase with other DCs singing and playing songs.

*Edit* I remembered 2 extra lucid dreams from this night after I wrote this.

-fragment- I remember testing out the diferance in my ability to fly and fly inside a car

I remember myself wandering through my school and into one of the class. I notice friends who shouldn't be in that class and I realize I'm dreaming. This leads to me walking down an empty plaza at night.

I am in the world of Warcraft playing a new character. I am trying to get added to a guild but realise the guild leader will not recognise this character. The area looks like the centre of stormwind but the character is a Tauren (Horde) shaman called 9ig (pig)?

Then the game forces me out. I am sitting at a computer desk with a small shuttle pc in front of me. I consider buying the latest Warcraft expanions to resume playing.

Nearby there is a stone pillar and a large statue of a fish. It wiggles its eyebrows at me! Must be a dream right? I laugh and try to count my fingers.... eventually realising there are at least six fingers on each hand. This is a dream. In the distance there are red fireworks going off. They look like a hundred hands of red smoke reaching up into the sky then disappating. Wow.

Remembering the bonus Totm I spin and try to teleport to Pandora. I arrive in an animated environment. There are people standing around tables set at the edge of a large room. Like an old banquet hall from a castle. Some of those animated women are kinda hot, but I stay focused on the task.

I walk around the edge. Must get to the forest. Where is it? In a roo. Off the main hall a little child holding a floating glowing flower. Bioluminescence. Wow what's that? Where did you get it?
"From the portal." The kid replies.

I head back and see a set of steps leading down and then a window. Through the window a magical battle is taking place. I dive and phase through the window and start to chase the combatants. There are a group of them. One who is possibly the leader gets away.

One guy is trying to steal a motorbike. Oh no you don't. I punch and kick him repeatedly. Then a kung fu panda shows up! The giant panda is spinning and doing impressive kicks. Not to be out-done while lucid, I do some back and do a full 360 spin kick that knocks the panda flying. Then I steal the motorbike and chase after the leader. I have some trouble with the bike so have to fake it.... making the noise to get it to move.

Then the path leads to a scrapyard. There is a main office, one of those temporary buildings. I see the leader inside. He spots me and points through cracked glass windows.

A forest with weird ice cream cone like portals are hanging in the air. They are plant like structures of red, white and pink plant fibres spun/grown together like candy floss. I phase through the glass into the forest to get a closer look and see hundreds of these glowing tree portals light up through the forest. It looks stunning. But then I wake up.

1. I was at an amusement park we went to from work and it was to keep us healthy. We had to use all of our tickets. There was fun houses, swings that went around in circles, teacups, slides, bounce houses and on and on but all fun stuff. I went through the fun house and almost peed myself from laughing so hard with all of the funny mirrors and all, then was jumping around in bounce houses, we were all acting so silly but it felt awesome. I even ate cotton candy and it tasted even better in the dream.
2. I was a unicorn and a big huge white horse walked up next to me and smacked me in the side of my face with his side of his face?
3. I was sitting across from an Indian Chief who was smoking a long pipe.
4. I was flying past several planets trying to find the one I wanted to go to.

Happy 2017! So, I've just been focusing on getting lucid. After Caiocontieri talked about wanting space dreams on IRC, I decided to incubate some too.
Autosuggestion worked nicely.

1.1

Crash Landing in another Universe
I am the commander of my own space station, just like I visualized before bed. The station is massive and capable of travelling from a universe to another.
We are orbiting a new planet with alien life. I want to be part of the first party to land on it. I take two crew members with me to a spaceship with three seats.
The ship looks like a bit like the one in Star Wars. The ship Luke flew when taking down the AT-AT. We get in and the ship is slowly being lifted out of the hangar.
We are on a ramp and we see space, the planet and part of the station in front of us. The locking mechanism is malfunctioning and our ship starts sliding down the ramp.
"Oh fuck!" I yell as I look at the part of our station we are falling towards. It's at least 1km until we hit the station and several kilometers below that is another level that we might hit.

We hit the station and start spinning out of control as we fall towards the planet. We are still picking up speed. This is going to hurt.
I try to calmly put on my seat belt, which is difficult thanks to the ship spinning. After I get the seat belt, all I can do is wait and hope for a miracle.
Maybe we land in an ocean or something.

The ship softly stops just before hitting the ground. A large red alien man with tentacles used telekinesis to stop our ship. We are in an alien city.
The atmosphere is denser and deep blue. It's also toxic to humans. We hold our breath. A lot of humanoid aliens rush to help us.
I try to communicate that we need air. My crewmate tries to draw this on a piece of paper in a way they could understand.
I also tell them that we came from another universe. I take a few breaths as a test. Breathing doesn't hurt, but I still believe it's toxic.

Dream #NYMC53

Morning of January 1, 2017. Sunday.

Reading time: 50 sec. Readability score: 80.



I first focus on a big eagle when I am within a tunnel in a cavern, looking out through the entrance when farther inside. It seems to be an influence from making an image from a 1968 dream that had a giant bird that resembles an eagle. It seems to fly towards the entrance yet the distance does not seem to change.

I see a clear pool of water. Something that looks like a snake is swimming in the water, but it soon seems to be a belt somehow moving on its own. Eventually, there seem to be at least a dozen identical venomous serpents that I have no concern about in my lucidity. They are like small coral snakes. They slither in and out of porous rocks. I am eventually aware of Zsuzsanna.

There is a scene where I see an unknown young girl in a plaid dress (yellows and greens). Down past her knees, she seems to be growing out of another girl, and that girl, in turn, grew out of another, and still another. The fourth girl is lying on the cavern floor. They all seem cheerful. This “human tree” reminds me vaguely of a scene from George Harrison’s “When We Was Fab” music video from 1987.

Dream #NYMB53.

Morning of January 1, 2017. Sunday.

Reading time: 1 min 28 sec. Readability score: 68.



My dream starts out with a typical water induction state (the most common beginning since early childhood as water symbolizes sleep and its dynamics in real time) and eventually becomes an area near a boat dock. It is in an unknown area near the ocean and seems to be late morning. I walk around as if perhaps looking for a boat to buy. Most are small motorboats. I look more closely at one near the outer wall of a commercial building.

Someone says “seven thousand dollars” loudly and clearly, but I think he might be talking to someone else who is looking around at the boats (though this is not certain).

I am sitting in a tavern. A person is sitting near me, and he or she turns to look at me. They are wearing a baggy cloth cat mask that covers their head. It is a pale yellowish cream color and almost seems like finer burlap in texture. It does not look quite right as if their head may be too small or perhaps slightly misshapen. I do not perceive any threat or sense of danger. I consider making an amusingly rude remark, but I do not. There is a sudden clear sound seemingly about five feet away that may be a bottle falling off a shelf.

---

It was part of a sequence of about twenty different scenes, but these are the clearer and stabler parts. It stems from the kind where I watch hundreds of settings rapidly change like a slideshow, eventually slowing down and stabilizing. Sometimes I deliberately step into a setting. Other times I let it expand around me, and I am within my illusory dream body.

---

A cat, though not a real cat here, is a witness to the dream state and a factor of circadian rhythms (associated with night). Being only a cat mask implies my dream is losing cohesion, but it is also a coalescence factor of the emerging consciousness that the color yellow also represents. It is also reminiscent of a scarecrow, a dynamic of physicality being inactive as is one when sleeping. It is also like having a pillowcase over one’s head. The bottle falling was the waking prompt.

31/12/16
Dream 1: ! get caught going through red light, end up losing license for 6 months, to make it worse mum buys me a birthday present of all the wrong books, I get pretty mad.

715am wake from first LD; 925am wake from 2nd for late morning LD. I recalled that heavy visualizations were important for late morning LDs and it worked.

* I am on a road driving and people are changing lanes strategically to get around people turning left and to keep moving somewhere in a hurry and at some point I am riding a bike instead and I realize I'm dreaming and I start to fly from the bike but then I noticed the dream visuals lessening a bit so I decided to land. I remember the 3 task of the month goals I had planned on doing first but this didn't seem like the right time to try the alien spaceship one. Even before bed while awake and doing some brief planning I somehow forgot about the translucent forest of Pandora, even though that sounds terrific if somewhat difficult. Anyway, I think of the pencil talk and I reach into my front right pocket with my left hand and my back right pocket with my right hand and they are big and loose and empty and I notice the visuals starting to fade again. I look down to the ground and I say but I think I see a forgotten Christmas present and it forms on the ground in front of my feet. It is wrapped in a wrapping paper more like cellophane and it's a blue color between blue and turquoise on the lighter end of the color scale. I start to open it where the paper comes together and I see that there is another layer underneath and I remove that also to see another layer. I start to realize this could continue forever and I confidently summon a pair of scissors in my hand instantly and surprisingly easily and I start to cut through the wrapping material to reveal a nice hard covered sturdy cardboard box with a lid. When I open the lid the first thing on top or a couple of gel inserts clear and the size of the heel of your foot maybe a bit smaller. Under that is a receipt and I'm thinking during the dream that it would be interesting to report to everyone on DV what the receipt said so I looked at it closely but all I recall is that the price was 89 dollars and with tax it was 95 something. Under some packaging paper in the box eventually uncovering the rest of the item which is a very fancy pair of leather slippers perhaps house slippers. They are a shiny brown leather in a thick leather that reminds me of thick rubber and squishy and they have clean stylish black soles. They seem like a very nice pair of slippers even though slippers are not something I would typically look forward to opening for a Christmas present. I wake and try to DEILD. I get only dreamlets, aware I'm dreaming but not full dreams and they kept dissipating so not counting a 2nd LD here, included: picking up string of lit Christmas lights, chips on big plastic storage container lid eating them, me with a santa bag carrying it, big goblet full of perfectly frozen ice cream sharing with nephew, sled and sled tracks in the snow, thick green shiny and partially translucent rectangular plate. Again each of the above dissipating before the next dreamlet appears.


*Over two hours later I have my second full LD. My earliest recall from this dream was a feeling of boldness to take off flying, realizing I'm dreaming! I am in a beautiful mountainous landscape not very different from where I was IWL this very day before going to bed. It was some of the most fun flying in a long time staying low to the ground flying over green grass and hills and punching the air in Superman flying posture to speed up. After a while, I approach two gigantic trees probably Oak trees or at least shaped like huge majestic Oak trees and the branches and foliage are so thick that it seems to be blocking my path to the mountains I saw on the other side and was heading to before getting caught up trying to get around these tree branches. Perhaps I should have spent some time under the trees, perhaps something to learn, as I do love trees. Instead I turn around and fly behind me planning on looping around but I am now in a neighborhood block scene, still a nice sunny day. I see a woman sitting in a car as I pass the end of the block and when I swing back around the car is gone so I start looking into windows of some 2 story houses and I'm not seeing much so I decide to land and go inside one of the houses which is actually a single-story house. I find the door unlocked and I open the door and peek in. It looks like an old person's house with an old couch multi-colored but mostly tan woven fabric where the colors are woven tightly together and blend in, until you look up close. It is along the wall on the far side of the living room and I see a bed physical through a bedroom door and a recliner chair to my left. This reminds me of my Grandmother's home. There's that distinct smell I've smelled somewhere before that reminds me of old peoples houses, but not my Grandmother's. I decide to go elsewhere and look back as I leave and I seem to see a big colorful face through the curtains, perhaps inspired by the mardi gras figure in the movie "Self/less" seen the day before. I wonder if someone might indeed be home and sure enough an older lady somewhat stocky and shorter comes to the front and I say I'm sorry I came in your home, but this is just a dream. She seems like she wants to talk and this reminds me I have some things I wanted to ask in a dream. I ask her about f she knows how to have very long lucid dreams. In a very thick Eastern European accent she says "you have to remember that in about 4 hours you will be ready to go back to sleep again and when you feel that sadness coming on..." The visuals and her voice starts to fade. Sadness? Seems like a gibberish answer. Also, I won't be ready to sleep again in 4 hours.

I am with my wife, son and daughter. We are trying to decide where to go on vacation. My wife says, "We'll just turn right at Alvarado" (Alvarado is a small town in Texas where the junction of I35W and 67 is located). The weather outside is bright and sunny. The dream suddenly fades and transitions to us all being at a train depot. We are now deciding which train to take. A train pulls up and opens it doors. As we are still deciding, my son enters into the train. Before I can get him out, the doors close and the train departs. In the dream I do not feel a sense of panic (I would totally freak out were this to happen in WL). As I am pondering my son no longer being with us, my wife pushes a button on the wall which causes all the trains in the system to stop and reverse.

As the train comes back to our station, and although I am still on the platform, my dream eyes are suddenly teleported into the cabin to look at all the passengers' surprise. I can also see all the monitors in the operating office at the depot showing the trains reversing. I see the operation technicians getting up from their chairs, alarmed that someone has interfered with the system. They are wearing sunglasses and uniforms. As I continue to watch them, it begins to dawn on me that they are actually terrorists -- and they are not inside depot offices but inside the actual train my son is in! As they start to hijack the train, I hear shouts and gunfire. The shouts are in a foreign language. I hear a word resembling the sound of "skinjib" and, for some reason, come to the determination they speaking Albanian. Dreamt 12/14/2016

Feeling gravity
I'm in the bathroom at work. I've finished washing my hands and am about to leave when I decide to check my phone to see if someone's sent me the information I need. I don't have any new messages, so I'm about to head out, but something reminds me that I should do an RC. I do a nose-pinch, fully expecting it'll show reality, but I find that I can breathe. I'm completely convinced that this is reality, so I must have done it wrong. I do it again, breathing in, then out, and I can still breathe. I'm having a really hard time believing I'm dreaming, but I clearly am. I rub my hands, then reach out and feel a screw in the side of a stall. I'm amazed at how accurate everything looks and feels. I realize I'm doing the "move really slowly so I don't pop the dream" thing and make an effort to move normally from this point on. I grab a paper towel and wad it up, again amazed at how real it all feels.

I remember my goal of increased awareness and run my senses over my body, immediately noticing that the gravity is wrong: I feel much too light, and there's hardly any pressure on my feet. For a moment my balance goes funny, but I get it back quickly. I jump into the air, then slowly float down, enjoying the feeling. I leave the bathroom and walk down a hallway trying to decide what to do. I'm going to try to get outside to fly again. I see a T intersection coming up and stop, trying to think what to imagine that would get me outside most easily; but I wake up.

My daughter keeps getting apocalyptic dreams, I said I don't , so as a result I did.

I was with a group of others, hiding atop a ridge of square concrete blocks. Hardly moving as a load of infected people went by, on both sides, unable to run for fear of being spotted.
Met up with Rob and friends who had been infected, he was pissed that I hadn't been. He had a bleeding arm with a big bit of metal sticking out, so he gave me a bear hug and stuck it into my arm to infect me. It stung like hell. Thanks Rob, lol.

1. At the Aunt's house of my ex husband with my daughter when she was small. It was a party of some type and lots of children there. They were eating sausage with peppers and onions amongst other foods. I was looking for a restroom and found one but it looked like a storage closet with a sink and toilet. I washed my hands and when I went to leave I noticed peppers and onions all over the place and in the garbage. I chuckled because I too was thinking that was a strange meal for children lol. I am guessing someone didn't want to hurt their feelings.

2. I was supposed to pick my granddaughter up at a birthday party at her friends house and I went in their house and there were kids everywhere no sign of my Granddaughter. Everyone was running around calling her name, she is 2. I went outside and started running all over looking franticly for her, when I saw a screen door open and a pool inside and ran over and saw her floating on her back with a big smile on her face hi grandma!
OMG I thought she drowned but I wouldn't allow myself to think that (my grandson drowned at his daycare center so this is still an issue for me).

3. My granddaughter had a field trip to the beach and my daughter couldn't go because of the situation with her son so I went to pick her up at the beach. My daughter said she just couldn't handle her going and I needed to go get her. I show up at the beach and I am looking at the chaos and I am glad I came to get her. There are children on boogie boards and toys all over with no adult supervision except at the pavilion. I ask where she is and people were looking around shrugging like they didn't know who she was. So I again frantically was looking for her when I saw a toddler under the water and pulled her up. It was not my granddaughter but brought the crying girl up to the pavilion and scolded them for not watching closely. Then went back looking when I saw my granddaughter playing with a little boy about 4 in the small waves. They were holding hands and jumping and falling on their tooshes. Whew. (These dreams could have gone so wrong so I guess I am doing much better, however all non lucid which is very unusual for me. They seemed so real and I had no clue any of these were dreams)

4. I was driving with my daughter to go pick up my granddaughter again from a party (must be something about parties with New Years or something) when I pulled off the main road which is 50 mph and took a very sharp turn where my tire went a tiny bit off the pavement when a man dressed in blue shorts and white t shirt wearing a security guard badge, who was sitting on a little green plastic chair started screaming at the top of his lungs every word you can imagine and then continued with he is going to kill me. He was terrifying! I was so confused because my tire barely came off the edge? I rolled my window a tad as he walked toward my car. My daughter was so nervous and yelling at me not to open the window. The man was spitting at me he was so mad. He said he just put sidewalk in and pointed over...I looked and it was brown sidewalk that matched his brown grass lol. I said I never saw brown sidewalk before but it is camouflaged by his grass. That made him more mad. Then I said what did I do so wrong? I didn't touch the sidewalk. He said I went off the road like everyone does and he is monitoring the situation and will make a report. I was so confused how someone could be so mad I told him is this a dream? There is no way that you can be this mad! He said oh Miss I assure you this is not a dream and you are a bad driver! I explained to him my situation and that I really needed to find my granddaughter and then I started to cry...I was so hurt that he could be so mean to me for barely riding off the edge of the road. His tone changed a bit but still yelling and screaming. I opened my car door with my daughter screaming and pulling at me and I stepped out of the car and said will you please give me a hug? I have had such a bad day! Hahaha The guy actually gave me a hug and then he was actually nice to me. He said he felt bad and he had a bad day too because everyone is hitting his new sidewalk. Then he let me go.

5. I was reading a sentence on a piece of paper and it said something about Jon Lassiter. No idea who that is or why that name came up.

Dream 1: A party, eating dinner, tons of food

Dream 2: Collecting together a bunch of relatives, friends and random people to form football team, play a game, people disappear at 3 quarter time but everyone comes back and we start again. Some people talking about high school

bed @ 00:00
natural WBTB @ 4:40

Non-lucid Dream 1:
I was at a new apartment me and a long time friend (Johnny) bought and we were just moving in, It was a true dream (ba dum tsss) ap, there were 2 rooms, each with it's own bathroom, and the kitches was so small and gorgeous it had me in complete joy just looking at it. After looking around, I went off on my own exploring the surrounding area on the terrace and it looked like the building had just been built. I look outside and there were two youtubers: Filthy frank and iDubbbz. They apparently also were invited to our new apartment greeting pizza buffet we had going. I remember having to deal with an annoying wasp that was desperately trying to sting me, and after a few tries I managed to get it killed (a couple dozen of shoe smashes later). Also there was this random DC girl that I didn't invite to the party and was pissed off about it, she wanted to take a whole garlic pizza once I decided to kick her out, and as expected she didn't respond well, which made me slap her across the face with the back of my hand.. and theeeeen

BAM!

I then woke up to my natural WBTB cycle and didn't bother staying up for long. I went straight back into the same dream and..

Non-lucid Dream 2:
This time the front door had Johnny's mother ringing the bell way too loudly. I went there to say greet her and she was there because of her concern about my well being, because apparently I had a cold and almost at the same time I've heard this I went from a my normal voice to a flu/cold voice. At the time I was completely soaked in warm water that she noticed once she touched my arm, and so she asked about it and at the time I had a justification that I don't quite remember but made total sense to me (?). We decided then to walk along the giant walls that surrounded the apartment complex, and at the peak of the highest level of the ground we could actually see what was behind once face of this giant wall (trump much?):It reminded me of another dream I had some days ago, there were stages to some kind of hunger games type of thing.

Back again the dream ended and I woke up to the sound of my father turning off the alarms of my house and decided to try Naiya's Simple MILD tech. (let's say it went dandy.)
I had my intentions and started to picture this last dream I just had, I made sure to really think the details thoroughly and to remember to RC + stabilize once I was in.
My recall is somewhat shitty about this event but I will try to describe it as best as possible.

Lucid Dream 1:
There I was at the same exact dream I just had, looking along the sides of the big walls, I remember looking at the DC (Johnny's mother) and saying I was dreaming and that her dialogue didn't quite matter to me any longer, I looked at my hands to RC and there it was, I had 11 fingers which had me like:"OH SHIT, OH SHIT, OH SHIT, OH SHIT!"
I decided to take off in flight and as I was rising up the gray skies started to become a mesmerizing light blue with different touches of orange just like in a sunset. And then as I got excited it all just went black.
Next thing I know I'm at my workplace and my father and another unknown DC were talking. I'm always respectful towards others, specially if they are finishing off something they are saying, so once they were done I was saying to myself:"WTF am I even listening to you both? I'm still in a dream.". And the dream started to fade away.


I then woke up and didn't quite know if it was a dream or only my visualization on Naiya's technique, but now i'm certain it was a dream. The thing that tripped me out so much is that it was way too weird to feel myself laying in bed breathing and have 2 perceptual bodies. But I gotta say i'm way too happy to be right on track to having LDs
