Dimension X

Tried to WILD+WBTB last night. Woke up 2 times before my alarm could go off. The second time was about 10 minutes before my alarm was set to go off. I tried to WILD after that, but with only minor success. The transition was sort of reached, but I panicked out of excitement... I need to learn to relax, but I have figured out a way to help with this technique that may work for others.

In order to relax and focus, I was constantly saying to myself in my mind: "Focus. Dismiss the thoughts. Relax." over and over. Not in that order but whatever. I visualized the words as well, and it seemed to work pretty well up to the transition.

I'll try again tonight. Hopefully with this new knowledge, I'll have some luck.

This is an old LD that I had around 8-10 months ago. It's still a lucid dream, so I figured I'd add it in now.

I don't quite remember how it began, but the general setting was a dark town set in a old spooky Prague style. It was night time, and the sky held a large moon. It felt so real. I could feel the cold air on my face as soon as I arrived. I could even smell rain. The small town itself was in a circle shape around a circle cobble road, with some sort of mausoleum in the centre. On the outside of the road between the road and the houses, there was a spire fence surrounding it all. I've drawn it below, in case my description is lacking detail:



That's what it all looked like. Nothing much happened, except I saw weird creatures, big and small, walking around and morphing into different shapes and other kinds of creatures. I remember trying to make someone appear to see if maybe they could help, but it wouldn't work.

I'm not sure what to make of that creepy town. It seems important somehow.

Any thoughts on this?

I was at some tall and loose looking building that seemed to really only be held together by metal walkways. Maybe a radio tower of some kind? There didn't seem to be any real parts that were solid and that had rooms, it just seemed to be all open. I was there with a friend, and it was his house, although his identity changed multiple times throughout the dream. His father and a friend his father had went up to the walkway where we were, which was about 30 feet off the ground. There was a door that led to nothing and his father went through it and fell all the way down, but he was fine. He apparently needed to do it in order to put the staircase in place. There was now a metal staircase outside the doorway he just jumped out of, which made it easier to get up to where we were. I don't remember what happened after this, but the next thing I know is that we're in an actual room now, even though his house seemed to have none. I was at the top of some staircase inside with my friend, and we were looking out the window and we saw my mom coming up to the house. She used the staircase that was put in place outside and came inside. Somehow, she was at the bottom of the staircase we were at the top of, and she was telling me how if I went back to school, I would need to "buckle down" and get better grades. This was pointless. We had an argument, and I reminded her about how I'm not going back to school because I graduated. She persisted anyway, and I was constantly compared to my friend next to me who got all B's. When I apparently only got C's. None of that is even true actually. This dream happened after I tried to do a WILD. I failed of course, but I did get close to the transition, so I'll try WBTB tonight.

Does anyone have any advice for someone trying to get back into WILD after like 2 years?

Tried to WILD last night with no success; too much on my mind.

No other dreams currently remembered... damn it.

I'll have to try harder tonight.

I literally JUST remembered that I did have a sort of lengthy dream last night, and it was long enough in general to have its own entry, so here we go.

I appear to be at a night time pool party outside of an expensive looking house. Only it doesn't really seem like a party. There aren't many people there, and there's no music or anything. But there were a bunch of lights aimed at the pool and I remembered coming out of the house and going near the pool but then I remembered I left my swimming trunks in the house so I had to go back in and get them. Once I was back out, I avoided swimming in the pool. In real life of course, it isn't that I can't swim, it's just that I don't like to. So even in the dream I refused to do it. It was almost pitch black outside, and there were like maybe 5 other random people that seemed around my age, but I didn't recognize them.

That's all I really remember about this one. I'm going to try and write down dreams here as soon as I wake up, so I won't forget them at all. Even if it's just for a few hours.

Nothing really happened last night that I can remember. Maybe a few small dreams that weren't memorable enough at all to write here. Tiny fragments of things I'm not able to recall.

Maybe I'll get something better tonight.

Not too much detail for this, but this one involved being in either a dark room or an alleyway, and I remember it could be an alley because there was a police car circling the area. Maybe police being in my dreams is a representation of guilt? But I don't feel guilty about anything super important, so that's strange.

Another fragment of a dream from last night is where I seemed to be in a dark building's entrance, passing by my parents, and going out into a big bright room with other people I know. ...This one ended up getting a little sexual, but that's not the point. It appears that the sexual portion was a result of mild lucidity, so that's a good sign I suppose.

Both dreams from last night weren't very memorable and were small, but I need to write them down here regardless.~

I literally haven't updated in 2 years. Wow. I'm going to try Lucid Dreaming once again, now that I no longer have school to worry about. So I have a few recent dreams I'd like to go through first... I don't remember too many details of course, but it's better than writing nothing. It's also better than writing each one separately, given how short they are.

1. I was in some sort of small warehouse room being held at gunpoint by some dude in a trench coat. For some reason, we swapped jackets, but he forgot he left another gun in his, so I took it out and shot him dead.

2. Multiple violent dreams of being in fights with random people.

3. Many dreams lately about spending time with my sort of gf. (Long story, don't ask.) Probably having these because I miss her a lot.

4. In my school looking for gf constantly, she turns a corner as I'm running towards her and she's gone completely. I spend the rest of the dream frantically searching for her.

5. A bunch of different dreams involving my old houses I used to live in, talking to my parents about various things.

That's all I remember recently.

I'll continue to update regularly from now on. It's good to be back!

This one was pretty awesome... I remember it starting at my house, in my bedroom. I had just woken up from bed in the dream. I went down to a train station or something to look for clues, and I didn’t have a gun either, which apparently, I guess I was supposed to. I remember meeting a girl down there and she gave me this message from my girlfriend saying “help”, and that’s how I knew I had to go save her. So me and another one of my friends, who also happened to be a girl (haha), went to this random big building on a street corner. Inside there was a big white room but nobody was in it. There was a doorway at the other end of the room though and after that, there was a huge room filled with people who looked like soldiers, plus a few guys dressed in suits. This is probably the highest number of dream characters I have ever seen at one time. I obviously wasn’t supposed to be caught by them, but they didn’t care so far. I remember going into the doorway and shouting at them like I was staff there at the building. Stuff like “Hey, how you guys doin’?” or “You got everything ya need?” things like that. They all approved of me and didn’t suspect anything. After that, I went into a room next to this one, and oddly enough, there was bowls of Cheetos everywhere on tables, although they were darker than Cheetos should be, but not that much darker. I remember picking up a Sub Machine Gun of some sort, and then sneaking it out of the building and giving it to my friend, who had stayed outside. She said “Oh, sweet, you got it?” or something like that. So part of the mission was to get a gun, and then to rescue my girlfriend. This was so cool too, I want there to be a second part...

This one was really cool. It started out in front of a run-down looking house. I was sitting in a car. Kinda felt like I was Dean from Supernatural. Anyway, there was some other guy beside me in the car, but it wasn't Sam. We both went inside and explored it. Apparently we were supposed to obtain a password for a certain door in the house. Some guy was inside and I guess we had to fight it out of him. There was a relatively big chamber before the door. "Sam" and I went behind a big piece of concrete (Probably a fallen wall) to wait for the man so we could jump out and fight him. "Sam" was noticed before me though, and the man threw something at Sam's neck and he fell on the ground. I remember them as being... Well, you know wind up toys? It was a handle to wind something up, only it had a really sharp point. Then I stood up to fight the man. He was wearing ragged clothes and he looked kind of old... Maybe in his 30's to 40's. The man threw a wind up handle at me but I dodged it. I don't really remember parts of the fight here though. But all I know is that I was doing kinda bad until I learned how to avoid the wind up handles entirely. He threw another one at me and got it in my neck, but I pulled it out and punched him in the face. He stumbled and fell onto the ground. Another wind up handle was thrown but I blocked my neck and it didn't hit me. Then I started punching him over and over and over. Left, right, left, right left, right left, right left, right left, right left, right... Until finally he looked dead, and I picked him up and threw him out a window. "Sam" woke up and pulled the wind up handle from his neck. Then he asked me if I got the password from the guy. Of course I didn't though, because I just punched the crap out of him and threw him out a window. I felt kind of guilty at that too. But yeah that's what I remember. It was pretty neat, especially the part where I kicked ass.

I rate this dream 4/5 awesome dances.

I had a sixth lucid dream last week, but forgot to write it here... (Whoops)

But yes, I finally had control! It wasn't much, but it's a start. All I remember is being in this weird building, and there was a clock high up on the wall, and rather than the clock moving by itself, I appeared to be controlling where the hands were going, with my mind.

Fairly short lucid... there was probably more, but like I said, I had this dream a week ago, so I guess I don't remember...
Maybe it isn't so hard to control them as I thought it would be...

...No rating this time, lol.

Ok so after 2 months or so, I finally have another lucid dream. Since after summer, I've been busy with high school so it's even tougher to have LD's now because I have to wake up early for school. It was weird that I had this one... Anyways, like the title says, it's really short. I remember literally just a few seconds. You know how clocks don't work in a lucid dream? Well that happened here. I've had a few LD's a long time ago where the clocks didn't work, but they weren't digital, they had hands. I had really always wondered how a digital clock would be in a LD considering that I never saw one in a LD before. Well, I found my answer here. I remember just tilting my head up in the LD to look at my digital clock, which, oddly enough, was on the opposite side of where it should be, like my whole room was mirrored. The clock didn't have any legible time on it. To give you an idea of what it looked like... It did have numbers on it, where every number on a digital clock should be. Except... All of the numbers were changing at a really high speed. They were just... scrambling, I guess.

So after about a month or so, I decide to add another entry...

This one isn't that long but was the weirdest one I've had in a few weeks... I was in some sort of colosseum, and there was a large amount of people in it but I was almost at the top, and nowhere near the seats. And I was coming to the edge when I realized I was casting a large shadow over the colosseum. It was just a normal shadow, except that it had angel wings. Apparently I had angel wings, but I couldn't feel them at all. Then I just remember running away from the edge into some sort of dark room... Like my wings weren't supposed to be seen.

Wow... It's started happening again... My bed randomly floating around and flying and whatnot... (Explained here -> http://www.dreamviews.com/blogs/sup3...ays-fun-36861/ )

So it happened again... Only this time, it was a bit worse. It kept occurring multiple times as opposed to just one, which used to be what it was like. My bed randomly floating off the ground, not being able to see it happen generally, but I could feel it as usual. It happened 2 or 3 times, then it stopped and I was awake. I woke up multiple times. Almost every time I tried to go to sleep, I would get that sinking feeling. I couldn't go to sleep for a while, Maybe about 2 hours. Keep in mind that this was at about 4:30 AM already.

There is a good side to this though. I was able to see things happen, only once however. I looked up and saw that I was floating. I didn't see my bed floating, but for some reason I could still feel it beneath me. I floated up a bit and was then launched at my wall. Then it went black for a fraction of a second and I was back in bed laying down. Eventually, I was able to get to sleep. This was terrifying, but in the dream, I knew I was dreaming... I'm now starting to think that these dreams are maybe a weird type of Lucid Dream... And if they are, then that's good because they're pretty easily accessible to me.

Just woke up from this dream, so here it is... I was outside in like a forest type place with my dad, and I'm not sure what I was doing entirely but I remember that I did cut a pine tree down with sandpaper. lol... My dad said he was looking for metal, and he told me to help him find some. So I started looking around outside, but strangely found nothing. There was garbage, including plastic and maybe some metal on the ground almost everywhere. And there was even kind of a warehouse outside too. It was like half outside, half inside. I went inside a room in there, and saw stacks of thick metal plates, so I brought one to my dad. He said "This isn't metal." And then I looked at it and realized that it was not metal, but rather a porcelain plate (Not an actual dinner plate lol) that when I first picked it up, it shone in a bright silver, which made it look like metal. But when I showed it to my dad, it looked rather orange. Then I remember saying "It looked like metal at first, ok?!" I still wonder what my dad could have been looking for metal for... Odd...
