      I was attempting a WILD and became the closest I've ever got. I felt like I was in full sleep paralysis but despite this wasn't seeing or hearing any hallucinations. (I'm beginning to think hallucinations just don't happen for me, each time I've been in sleep paralysis I've never had any. Or maybe I've just not been in complete sleep paralysis yet.) After I while I got the urge to roll over, but resisted and just tried to focus on the HI I was seeing. I got quite uncomfortable, finding it hard to breathe, noticing the heat and weight of the duvet on top of me. But then... I don't remember anything else.

      Next I know I'm in a dream, first thing I remember after attempting the WILD is being in this room where I'm checking my hands and fortifying the lucidity.

      I walk out of the room and see that I'm in a tropical rainforest, similar to the place I was previously incubating with HI. I walk around for a bit but the dream becomes unstable and incredibly blurry. I rub my hands together and feel all the texture of the world around me, managing to re-stabilise the dream.

      I walk into this open expanse. I'm still not fully conscious in the dream, but I guess the incubation I had of chinese dragons in the sky of this tropical rainforest enters my mind, as I take to the skies and try transforming into a chinese dragon. I see myself in the reflections of the waters and I am still in human form, but I am weaving effortlessly through the sky, just like a chinese dragon.


      I have a false awakening. I'm laying on the floor in this room, surrounded by people talking about lucid dreaming. I get the impression that I'm a sort of test subject, but I also don't want to be here. I attempt to DEILD while still laying on the floor while in this dream, but I think I woke up properly and DEILDed because the voices of the people disappeared and I vaguely remember the feeling of my bed for a few seconds before I entered the next dream.

      I'm instantly lucid in my kitchen. I decide to try turning the lights on and off, just to experiment with dream physics. They turn on, but I'm unable to turn them off again, so I just head outside.

      It's early morning, there's sporadic streaks of orange darted about the dark cloudy sky. I begin walking to the street when I hear footsteps coming up behind me. I turn around and my mum's there. She hands me this cup she has in her hands, but when I try to take it she resists me, similar to a lucid dream previously. My lucid DC version of her seems to be very aggressive, I've noticed.

      After a short while of struggling, I decide to try yelling commands at the dream, something I hadn't tried before. I yell "Let go of the cup!" and sure enough, she immediately stops. Almost robotically she yields the cup over to me. I wonder what else I could try with yelling commands, so to make sure my DC mum doesn't interfere with my lucidity as she has a tendency to be a pest in my lucids, I yell "Jump up and fly away!" she looks at me, somewhat confused, before leaping into the sky and flying away. I chuckle at how comically she flew away, and then take to the skies myself, flying in the opposite direction. I'm still holding on to the cup, using it as dream stabilisation by focusing on the solidity and texture of it. I decide I don't need it after a while and simply drop it.

      I hear a crash and a yell behind me and I assume my mum had crash landed, but I don't really pay it any attention. I'm more interested in the DC that's standing on the street, in awe at the fact that I'm flying. I land and for some reason electrocute them with my hands. There's no electricity graphical representation, but as I aim my hands at them they shake violently before collapsing onto the ground.

      I remember the Task of the Month, to find alien life and go on a date with one of them. I try conjuring a portal on the nearby wall, to no avail. I decide to use the door technique to change scenes with the door on the house nearby, but like every other time I've tried it I seem to not focus enough beforehand and simply walk through the door.

      I'm inside this house and close the door behind, struggling to get it to latch on. The house has a seemingly endless hallway with lots of tiny rooms with people doing various tasks in each of them. I was looking for another door to try the door technique but every room in this house was open-plan.


      Without warning, I have another false awakening. I'm back laying on the floor surrounded by these people. They've moved on to a different topic now but I still don't want to be here. I seem to get this pop-up in front of me, as if my eyes were a computer screen. It asks "Do you wish to leave the room?" To which I click "Yes."

      I end up in a different room, I have no clue where I am but don't have time to find out. The dream fades to black and I wake up in my bed, completely confused. I wonder if I should DEILD again but after the long stream of dreams I decide I'd be better off simply journalling them so I didn't forget any details.
    2. Huge Storm, Dude Where's My Car?, WILD *LUCID*

      Aids:1/8 tea peppermint oil before bed
      Methods:DEILD/WILD - FA
      Morning Suppliments:500mg L-Lysine, 500mg C, 595mg Potassium Gluconcate, 1 Super B-Complex
      Sleep Quality: Light, wakefulness, RLS

      Huge Storm 1:12 AM
      Huge storm coming. Riding with dad. I see storm shelter. I hear some song that reminds me of someone. And then another song. I remember an ex-girlfriend.
      "I say I hate all songs."
      I see Jeremy and Jess in the car with us.
      "What song? I say do tunes to what you want."

      Dude, Where's My Car? 3:15 AM ish

      I am at my parents sleeping in a recliner. It is dark and I can't sleep.
      I went to my parents with the kids. I am leaving. But I can't find my car. I see a white car that is stripped down. The kids think it's mine but I know better. We run down the street looking for it. I feel tired and weak and can't run well. I see white cars everywhere but none are mine. I don't want to call the police yet because I keep thinking that I remember that I parked in a strange place and I knew I would not remember. I tell the kids this.

      Now we are in some nursing home and wondering around. Not sure what happens here. Something about me not being a good enough Christian. How I let bad things into my life. Thats why bad things happen. Some old woman? I feel guilty for lucid dreaming like it is a sin.

      We leave. I tell my kids we got to look some more before we call the cops. Deanna says that Dalynn already did. I asked her about that. It was when I was holding her and she blew into a strange balloon.
      She says, "Well that lady scared me. So I called the cops."
      We run outside but I feel overwhelmed and too tired to walk. I lay down in the grass and dirt. I curl up on a mound of dirt. I tell the kids I just want to close my eyes. My body relaxes and I wake up.

      WILD 3:30AM ish
      When I wake up I am in the recliner that I moved to because of my RLS. I don't move a muscle. I relax myself and I roll my eyes into the back of my head and focus on my skull. Sleep Paralysis almost immediately kicks in.

      I hear the familiar strong wind sound laced with rinings of the ears. I feel the familiar vibrations and windy sensations. I noticed this time that the sound and vibrations increased and decreased in intensity like waves on a beach. I make a quick note of this. I can feel my legs moving up. It feels like something has me by the ankles. I become afraid and I have to remind myself it is not real. I try to enter the dream but I get stuck in SP for longer than I wanted and because of the last dream I thought I was doing something evil. I keet telling myself that it was ok. And it wasn't real. You do this all the time and its always been fine. No good, the feeling was persistent.
      I try to ignore the thoughts and visualise anything to move on. I my mind wonder and my dream eyes see.

      I see a road. I am flying low and fast down a vivid and brightly lit road road hugged tightly by evergreen trees. I enjoy this but my eyes begin to opened and I see the dark living room with one eye and the road with the other.

      I go back into full SP. Still the same feeling of guilt. I think that this is getting no where and I want to go back to my bed. So I suddenly and forcibly make myself get up. I stumble back to my bedroom. I heard and felt my loud footsteps.

      I think how odd this is. I was feeling the vibrations like wind on my body. The loud sound of wind and ringing. Typical SP. Was it possible to not be truly paralyzed in sp?

      I now find myself tangled in my blanket. I am standing by my bed and I can't find my way out. I am unsure of what happened. I feel so confused and my mind feels numb.

      I say, "I'm dreaming. I'm dreaming." But my voice sounds odd. It is weak and unsure. Almost like I am asking a question. I am not convinced. Then I throw myself in the bed. Now I can find my way out. I feel half asleep and strange.

      All my actions have woke my wife up. My wife mocks me. And complains how this is not good what I'm doing. She is pissed I woke her. I feel embarrassed and say nothing. She gets up to go the bathroom. I close my eyes and relax. But instead of going to sleep I wake up still in the recliner. God dammed FA!

      I was so sure I was awake.

    3. 7.7.2012 - BEST LUCID DREAM EVER! & FA & weird dream within a dream.

      by , 07-08-2012 at 05:55 AM
      Date: 07/07/2012
      Place: My bed
      Time of getting into bed: 11.12pm


      Ok, first off, I slept as usual, then woke up in the night without remembering any dreams. I did this last night so just presumed my intention / auto suggestion to wake for a WBTB was waking me up in my NREM cycles. Anyway, I relaxed, tried to WILD but thought I fell asleep.

      Dream 1 - non lucid / FA / lucid

      False awakening, I wake up (from a dream I don't remember or never had) in my bed, in the exact same room etc. I start complaining to my bf that I didn't have a lucid dream from my WILD, and he tells me he had many!! I'm pretty pissed off, but ask him how he did it. He says he'll help me, and tells me to hold his arm as we fall asleep. I do, and enter a dream. (Dream within a dream? wtf?) in this dream I am running around a town square, watching people running from giant shark heads that are attacking, but the shark heads barely move, and they have no bodies, they actually look a little like plastic. There is water gushing from them but they are on the street in the middle of the day? I wake up, into my bed. I then tell my bf that I wasn't lucid, and he tries to help me WILD - this part of the dream is really hazy, but I remember slipping in and out of the dream, WILDing and talking to him. Not sure what was a dream and what was real life at this point. Suddenly, I'm in a really vivid dream. I'm stood in a corridor, cream and pale brown walls. I plug my nose, and can breathe!!! Fuck I'm lucid!!! So I laugh like a maniac, super happy that my ADA and RCs during the day have paid off. I first, rub my hands and jesus, this is so convincingly real. I look above me, around me, try to take in as much as I can, thinking to myself 'Remember all of this for your DJ!' So it appears I am in a school, or college of some sort. There are a few people dotted around, classrooms and pictures / notices on the walls. A young girl, with ginger hair exits a classroom and sits on a chair or bench next to the wall, I think she had a book in her hand but can't remember. I want to talk to her but then I realise I recognise her from school all those years ago. She looks pretty pissed off, and I remember I never did like her in school. She glares at me, as if warning me not to speak to her, so I ignore her. I walk along a bit, enter a classroom and a girl sits with a few guys, they seem a bit stand-offish, but harmless. The girl is chewing gum in a really unattractive way, but I ask 'Where am I?' They look at me like I'm crazy. The girl finally answers 'This is a superschool.' I ask what it is called, and she hesitates, like she is unsure. She then stammers a bit, looking at her male friends for help. 'erm... it's.. it's called... Mkat, it's a superschool for boys.' but she sounds really unsure, and there is the same amount of boys as there is girls here. I thank her and leave. I presume when she said MKat she meant the drug? Weird. I leave and walk around for a few seconds, I'm so super happy this is a lucid dream, that I keep giggling and smiling to myself! I decide to rub my hands as a precautionary measure, and then stamp my feet as I remember this being mentioned. My legs wobble and I feel the muscles as I stamp, woah this is so real! I'm so impressed! A friendlier looking girl walks by and I say 'hey! Can you help me?' she smiles and tells me she will get her teacher. Seconds later, an older woman appears. She is friendly looking too, with full grey hair but only in her 50's, she has a name tag and wears a grey jumper over a lilac blouse with trousers. Her hair is shoulder length, she may have had glasses around her neck. She smiles to me, and asks me what she can do to help. I tell her I'm looking for a magic potion drink, remembering TOTM. She doesn't seem to know what I'm talking about, but agrees to help anyway. For a while I keep repeating 'magic potion, a magic drink, it's a potion, blah blah' just to get the message across. She tells me to follow her and walks off briskly, I follow her. As we walk, I notice paintings and drawings framed on the wall. I take a closer look at some, one is a watercolour of a young girl, not too bad but pretty novice painting. The next is something I can't remember, but it's a yellow and orange mess. I note the name underneath is one of my ex bf's names, but with a few letters different. As we walk, students pass us each direction, everyone seems about mid 20's and a little older, all quite engrossed in their college duties. The nice teacher asks me where I'm from, I think for a few seconds then say 'Superland.' I don't know why I said this, but I remember not wanting to say where I was really from for some reason. I think because I could say anything and it was my dream! She nods and smiles, then asks me why I want the magic potion, nosy lady! I tell her it's really important, and someone specifically left it here for me! She asks who, and ur, I sort of panic a little, I hold my face and try to remember the name of the DV member who does the TOTM thread, but I can only think of Gab, so that's what I say. She nods and smiles again, I'm not sure she believes me but she is too nice to say anything. I rub my hands again, still amazed at the real vividness of the dream and then say to the teacher, 'I'm dreaming you know!' I laugh after saying this, it sound's so crazy! And I feel like such a rebel (haha) and she totally doesn't believe me, in a really sarcastic voice she says 'oh, that's nice!' and I say, 'really, I am!' but I can't stop laughing and she kind of looks the other way. For a moment I think of attempting the advanced TOTM, but then I remember it involves jumping on a train or something, so I decide against it. (Doh, I forgot that was last months!!) Eventually we get to a room where some kids are hanging outside, she says 'I'll just go and check if the magic potion drink is in here, please come with me,' and she enters the room. I go to follow, but suddenly a stream of students starts leaving the room, and a loud bell goes off! I get pushed around a bit and fear I'm waking up, so I get out of the way and calm myself down. The students are all rushing out, there's HUNDREDS of them! I get annoyed with my brain for doing this to me, but then think 'hang on, this is my dream, I can get in that room any way I like!!!' I think about pushing through the wall, but don't feel confident enough. Then I think about flying... yes! My next task was to fly properly. So I point my arms above my head (like I'm diving,' and just... fly! It's so easy! Complete control, a bit slow, but it's fine for me. I fly over the heads of the students (they don't notice, or care) and towards the gap in the door above their heads, it's a tight squeeze, and I get a little stuck (got to lay off the sweets ) but I get through, the student's below feel me brushing over their heads and start complaining (Ow! / Get off! / Stop that!) I find this mildly amusing. I land on a grey sofa, and stand up. It's a regular classroom (except for the sofa) and the teacher is stood with 2 young, good looking girls smiling and waiting for me. I walk over, and YES!!!! THEY HAVE THE MAGIC DRINK!!!! Thankyou very much! They present it to me like a trophy, and I grab it, eager to drink! The bottle was bright purple, with a purple lable that had no text but purple colours and shapes. The cap was strange, a bit like a ring-pull, but plastic. The closest thing I can think of is like a plastic milk carton lid, or fruit juice lid, where you pull it off and it's a plastic circle with a line of plastic attached to it. I discard this and peer inside. The drink is a darker purple, with the consistency of fruit juice. I happily take a few big gulps, and shit, this is such an amazing experience. I can actually taste the drink! It's mega sweet, perhaps too sweet for some, but nice to me. It's fruity, and tastes like berries, but with a LOT of sugar. I like it so I drink more, trying to really remember the taste, it's almost MORE taste then real life, my mouth is watering so bad! The teacher and the girls just stand and watch with big smiles. I must look like an absolute looney. I stop drinking and wait to see if I feel any different. I don't feel anything, except - THE DREAM IS FADING! Oh no! I try to rub my hands, and it slows the fading down, but doesn't stop it. I try to spin, but AGAIN I find this impossible. I don't know why but I really can't spin in my dreams. I want to do something, but it's almost like I know this is the end. I wake up, wide awake, and pretty fucking happy. Maybe the magic potion was a dream-ending potion? HAHA.

      This was the best dream ever in my life ever. I was wide awake, stayed in bed and tried to sleep but my mind was racing, even shutting my eyes was difficult. After an hour I decide to stop trying and get up and have a cup of tea. I watched the birds playing in the veggies outside, and felt like I really appreciated life after that dream. It was so real, and I still remember that vivid, amazing taste of the drink. I feel like I need to say such a big thankyou to dreamviews, because without this site I would never have had that dream!

      ***NOTEWORTHY***
      I went to college / University years ago
      FA, lucid, best dream ever!
      Realistic and the drink was amazing
      Super awake on waking, perhaps the B6???
      RC worked, as did rubbing hands
      Spinning never works for me.
    4. 04.07.2012 - lucid through WBTB / WILD, 2 x FAs and non lucid dreams

      by , 07-05-2012 at 10:58 AM
      Date: 04/07/2012
      Place: My own bed
      Time of getting into bed: 2.30am



      Dream 1 - non lucid 6.16 am

      I am a young boy again, possibly 13ish. My family are all farmers and we own some considerable land and wealth. My father has recently died in a freak accident, of which my Uncle thinks my Mother is responsible. My mother and Uncle fight, but he remains around the home, does most of the work on the farm and raises us. Soon my eldest brother dies in a freak accident somewhere on the farm. My mother, who appears a bit unstable, involves me in some illegal activity which includes me standing outside a school, and dealing with big wads of cash. I have to smuggle the cash into a building, as I enter some guards try to pat me down, I hide the cash in my pocket, and luckily they don't find it and I get through. Then my mother murders my other brother, by drowning him in mud at the farm. My Uncle is angry and tries to stop her, but she thinks he is after the money. They fight for a long time, until eventually he locks her in a tractor, and she sinks into the mud, drowning. When we recover the tractor, she has left an envelope with my name on it, and inside is all the money they were arguing over (it was £4000) my Uncle seems sad, and I agree that he should be entitled to some of the money, so tell him to come and sit with me while I work it out. He starts talking about how I should buy a house with my money, and that he has seen a nice one nearby for £4000.

      *There is a fragment of dream here, and I was pretty sure it was the same dream as above, although it doesn't fit anywhere.*

      I get a card, which says 'Nodon' on the envelope. I know this is from a certain friend, because their email address includes the word Nodon. The card has lots of glitter and decoration inside it, and the letters have been written in brown felt tip, very neatly. I suspect it was 'Nodon's' wife who wrote it. It is congratulating me on something, but is written in a very silly and childish way, with 'Ni ni ni ni ni' written all over the text. It also includes a picture of me, which was taken from facebook, and I think the picture is terrible. I tell myself that I really must not forget to say thankyou to Nodon.

      Dream 2 - non lucid 8.23 am

      I am in a room, with lots of rooms attached to it in which people are living / store their belongings. A bit like a ship. None of the rooms are locked, and everyone is out, we are the only people here. (We are myself, little sister, and unknown DC) My little sister steals some jewellry from one of the rooms, and I tell her off, and make her put it back. We pass the room of a tattooist, and suddenly we set lots of machines off. The 2 girls (my sister and the DC) make me turn the machines off because I am the man. I do so. I am carrying around a file with lots of bits of paper in it, I keep going through the paper, checking off boxes and lists. The paper had a bigger role to play in the dream but I forgot it. However I am now going to a music concert, and start getting ready. I put on a white shirt, and the girls make fun of me, telling me I look silly. I go to the gig, and there is another man with a similar white shirt on. I talk to him.

      Dream 3 - non lucid

      There is a young girl (10 yrs old?) blonde, and a bit chubby. She is advertising what looks like a bottle of cooking oil. She says; 'If your body is unique like mine (meaning fat) then you need this!'

      Dream 3 - WBTB / WILD & 2 x FAs 9.34am

      This is where it gets weird, I woke up, got up to drink a little water, then after writing the previous entries in my DJ, I tried to WILD. Several times I got very close, and had to re-try.

      The man I am sleeping with turns around and says 'Shall we get up and have some food?' I am annoyed because I was trying to WILD, but I tell him 'Yes, OK then.' It wasn't until after I got up for the day that I realise this never happened. Must have been dreaming.

      Suddenly I felt the familiar onset of SP. There was no noise this time (woohoo!) just a really bizarre all over body feeling which I have grown used to. I welcomed it, and a few times it came and went as my concentration wavered. However soon I felt it flood my senses, and at this point I 'willed' my body to move. I felt my body sitting up, and leaving my other body sleeping behind. I kept thinking 'so how do I go from here, into a dream?' this was more like an OBE, it felt so absolutely real. Suddenly I lost it, and I was awake lying in bed. I decided to do an RC, in case it was a false awakening. For some STUPID reason, I held my mouth, not my nose, but I did realise I was dreaming and became lucid. I shouted out, 'I am dreaming!' and then decided to try and calm down, however I must have got a bit too excited, because I suddenly woke up. I was annoyed, but happy the WILD worked, so I started writing in my DJ. I put the time as 1.17, but put 1.77 by accident. I scribbled it out, and put 1.17 then suddenly, I woke up for real. It was a FA!! The time was really 9.34 I was so sure that I had woken up, what an idiot!

    5. 25.06.2012 - Non lucid dreams and LUCID DREAM, plus FA???

      by , 06-26-2012 at 03:00 PM
      Date: 24/06/2012
      Place: Friend's sofa
      Time of getting into bed: 3.02am


      Dream 1 - Not sure weather lucid or not.....
      I am really unsure about this dream. Could anyone tell me weather it was lucid or not?

      In my dream, I am counting my fingers as a RC. I have 5 fingers so figure it must be real, however I don't trust it, and keep counting, over and over. Eventually, I stare at my hands and an extra finger appears. Thinking 'I must be lucid' I then plug my nose and can breathe. However unlike LDs I have had before, I don't think I fully comprehend that I am dreaming. I am in my old bedroom in my mums house, but I think that this is normal, and it is my current bedroom. I climb out of bed and my mum's dog runs into the room, happy to see me. He jumps and licks me, very excited! I fuss him a little bit, give him some cuddles then take him out the room because I am worried he will wake my partner who is sleeping. Outside, I get on my knees and rub the carpet, trying to stabilize myself. The carpet is mint green. The dream has no danger of fading, but that's because it doesn't feel real, it feels like a dream. I now stand and think for a moment, I am unsure what I want to do now I am lucid. I decide to fly, as everyone raves about how good it is. I leap out of the window bravely, which is my old hallway window in my childhood house (long since been bricked up) I plummet towards the concrete floor below, but shut my eyes and say 'I can fly' and I sweep back into the sky just in time. I fly a bit, singing to myself, then dive down a chimney to see what I will find. I enter a 'Xmas' type themed area, with Xmas trees, presents, etc etc. I tell myself that was obvious, of couse I will associate Xmas with chimneys cos that's where santa goes. I started singing again and find my voice is perfect, although the song is cheesy and lame. I wake up, because my partner is moving in the bed next to me. Once I am awake, my partner offers me some cheese. I tell him about my LD and he tells me it's because I ate cheese before bed. I eat some more (it's got breadcrumbs on it) and my best friend is also in bed with us. We laugh for a while about my LD, and then I wake up for real because my friend's cat jumps on my head. Was this a FA?

      I actually doubt weather I really knew I was dreaming, or if I was dreaming about myself being lucid, and didn't really know I was not there. If that makes sense. It felt like a regular dream.

      Dream 2 - Non Lucid dream

      My notes are rather bad. They basically say:

      ''Water gun fight - fighting someone in a dream... drive by car and squirt?''

      I don't remember anything.

      Dream 3 - Non Lucid dream

      I am robin from Batman and Robin. I am watching something, or someone. Either training or as part of a job. I go through some sort of test / task, and get put to sleep. I am not struggling, but letting them put me to sleep. The person doing it is an older man, nice to me, although I get the feeling he is going to do something to me while I am asleep that he shouldn't. Possibly sexual. Later on I have awoken, and I am in plain clothes on the london underground tube. I may be part of a secret operation.

    6. 06/19/2012 and 06/20/2012 - "Pre-emptive Scare" and Fragments

      Dream Fragment One:

      I was in some large, cylindrical chamber, and had just 'acquired' a bad-ass, jet-black racing motorcycle. I spent a little while in this chamber, spinning the tires and riding up and down elevations in the architecture. Later, I had gotten the bike on the night road, and was riding along side some friend of mine, but don't remember the rest.


      Dream Fragment Two (I think):
      (I'm pretty sure this was a separate dream, but can't say that I'm certain.) I was with BR, T and maybe one or two other friends. We were riding BMX bikes and jumping some dirt ramps in the woods. At one point, BR jumped off a short ramp and didn't quite clear the gap, but was able to jump his feet off of the pedals with enough time to catch himself on the elevated platform, before falling back down into the gap. A short time afterward, I was going back the other way - jumping from the elevated platform, and using the short ramp as a catch ramp - and caught my front tire on the catch ramp, face-planting in the dirt. I remember getting up and wondering about how strange it was that it didn't hurt, though I wasn't aware enough to become lucid.

      Dream Fragment One:

      I was splitting two adjacent hotel rooms between myself and about 4 girls, some of whom I recognized - some I didn't. It was just all kinds of fun. Lol. I really don't remember all that much, besides all having a lot of laughs as we moved from room to room, and then sharing a bed with two of them, when it was time to crash. The next morning, something happened to where we found out that there were some people after us, and the 3 of us in the room I was in had to use some secret tunnel to take us from our room and (somehow) across the hall to the other room, so that we wouldn't be there when our pursuers busted in our door.


      Dream Two:
      "Pre-emptive Scare"


      One of those strange "in-between" dreams, where you can't tell if you're fully-awake, dreaming, or just having some hypnopompic hallucinations...)
      I was lying in bed with my eyes closed, facing the wall, when I heard my mom getting ready for work and talking to my daughter out in the hallway. I then heard someone messing with my doorknob, which is locked. Then, I heard CJ whispering to my mom to unlock the door, so she could come in and scare me while I was sleeping. Somewhat smiling at myself at this, I decided to play possum for a minute, to see if she would really try.

      The door quietly creaked open. I could hear it from behind me as I continue to face the wall with my eyes shut. I began wondering if this was really happening, because it was so out of the ordinary (my daughter would have never unlocked my door to come in my room), but the more I questioned it, the clearer I heard her feet softly shuffling across the carpet toward my bed. Still not really sure whether I was really awake or not, I turned really quickly and sort of half-shouted "raaah!" at where I knew she would be.

      But she wasn't there, and I was now fully-awake, and staring at an empty room, feeling a little foolish for having tried to scare someone who wasn't there.

      (As much as I'm fascinated by those 'threshold-of-waking' tricks that our minds play on us, they do have a way of making you feel stupid when you fall for them. Lol.)

      I don't really remember the beginning of my dream, but it began with me, and the characters from an anime expediting on something. I don't really remember. I was tired, so I went to sleep. I subsided into my dreamscape and I knew I was dreaming off the bat, because I began flying all of a sudden. I didn't do much in that dream, except explore, I was lucid. Then I woke up, told the characters that I had a lucid dream. That dream wasn't lucid. Some people died due to causes, such as falling down a really long ladder, drowning, etc. I went to sleep again, and it was also lucid. I woke up, and tried to breathe whilst holding my nose. I was dreaming. I was outside of a house. I went inside and it was a mess. There was a woman there. I guess she was supposed to be my 'mom' in the dream. She got mad at me. There were chairs broken, windows cracked. The reason for this was that there were four girls in there, at the time I wasn't lucid dreaming, who got mad at me. I stormed out of the house and didn't return until that time. I waved my arms. "CLEAN UP!" I shouted, all the mess disappeared. This part I had trouble with. Our neighbor was selling his car for $500. I didn't have $500. I went back inside and tried to spawn $500. No luck. I was waving my hand at a table, shouting "500 DOLLARS!" and it didn't work. I tried to focus, and think very hard. "Spawn 500 dollars." Didn't work. I think after that I woke up. Wait! I woke up again? I had a false awakening. I got up, walked out into the living room, and woke up again. This time, I was awake for sure.

    8. 28th May 2012 - Fourth Lucid Dream [Most Vivid Yet]

      by , 05-28-2012 at 04:30 PM
      Italic Text = Personal Thoughts
      Normal Text = Non-Lucid Segment
      Purple Text = Lucid Segment

      I had initially slipped out of a dream and into a false awakening, which I managed to pick up on and immediately woke after realising it was a dream. I wanted to get up anyway and write down the dream I just had as this night I had only recalled one dream, but I decided to take a chance, sacrifice remembering that dream and DEILDed back into the false awakening.

      I was initially sure I wasn't in a dream as I didn't feel myself fall asleep from the DEILD, but I performed a reality check anyway and realised that I was in fact dreaming!

      I pulled myself up from the bed and everything was blurry and spinning around me. This time though, unlike my other lucid dreams, I remembered to perform stabilisation techniques. I rubbed my hands together and spun around but it didn't seem to be working at first. It felt like I was looking at the world through a fisheye lens that was incredibly zoomed out. It was really disorientating.

      I blinked after performing a lot of stabilisation, and after the blink things became the most vivid they have been in any of my lucid dreams. I walked out of my door and to my stairs, where my Dad was standing at the bottom. He begins walking up the stairs as I'm walking down them, and I decide to just push him back off the stairs so I can get by, just to see his reaction. He kind of stumbles, looks at me funny, and then walks away.

      I walk into the living room, it's dark in here but I walk through into my kitchen area. I get annoyed at the darkness so I try to use powers to turn on the light, but nothing seems to be happen. I flick the light switch and the light starts flickering dimly but I still can't get it to turn on.

      I decide to walk outside, when I open the door I notice that it's actually daytime outside, roughly mid-morning. As I'm walking I notice that I don't have any shoes or socks on and get worried that the discomfort of walking on the rough ground with bare feet would wake me up. I look away from my feet and conjure some shoes and I become excited when it actually works as this was my first conjuration. Though, despite this, I'm still feeling the rough ground as if I was bare foot.

      I remember that I could just fly into the air, I jump up and still don't seem to have full control over flying as I can't sustain it for long and land back down on the grass. I try again and this time manage to float up to about as high as the roof of my house and stop briefly to decide what to do next. I decide I want to go exploring and when I fly up to get a view of my surroundings I seemingly uncontrollably begin shooting up into the sky at high speed until I'm above the clouds. I look around and notice an interesting looking area, with bright red roads and tall buildings. I fly down to it and look around the area, it seemed to be a school of magic or something, there were students inside the buildings brewing potions and practicing spells. Still not having full control over flying, I'm kind of "drifting" as I turn corners and can't quite get the hang of stopping when I want to. I stop briefly to try and find to find a balance before flying back over this school building and to my house.

      Upon landing, I remember my dream objectives list and the top one being to try some dream food. I hold my hands out and look away, trying to conjure a plate with a sandwich on, only I don't get the sandwich and just end up with a plate. As I continue trying to conjure the sandwich onto this plate, the plate seems to develop a life of its own and it's jumping out of my hands and gradually growing in size with each attempt I make.

      I turn around and see my mum glaring at me, I'm kind of disturbed because of how aggressive she looked. I walk up to her and she immediately lashes out, grabbing the plate and trying to pull it from my hands. I resist for some reason, and then think "If I can't conjure myself a sandwich, maybe I should just ask a dream character to make it for me?". I asked her and her aggressive attitude immediately changes to a smile as she says "Sure!". I let her have the plate and she begins walking back into the house and I'm following her, when the dream quickly fades to black. I try stabilisation techniques but it's too late and I woke up.


      Funnily, I awoke precisely 3 minutes before my alarm would be going off. It never ceases to amaze me how precise the body clock can be.
    9. I Feel Asleep 4 Times in 1 Expericence

      by , 05-27-2012 at 12:54 PM
      Sunday, May 27th. I woke up at 11:44 a.m and decided that I probably could sleep a little more. So I tried to get a lucid dream (without an alarm). So I got into the dream without knowing it, I was sitting with my mom and a bunch of other ppl, I can't remember who. I decided in my dream that I wanted to get lucid. So I woke up again but my RC failed, so I woke up in the dream and decided to try again.
      This time I woke up in the same room, there was an hallway and I went to check it out, but no one was in there, even though it was supposed to be a babys room. I wanted to go outside, but before I did a cat and another animal started walking beside me, so the I RC'ed and it worked. Suddenly I was stading outside on a road that I kinda knew, with my good friend who also does lucid dreams, so he guided me through the dream. While standing on the pavement a blue car drove by but stopped, Sebastian quickly told me to stabilize the dream, and the car started driving again, I wanted to jump in front of it, for the lulz, but I was too afraid..
    10. Reality Bug (false awakening)

      by , 05-21-2012 at 01:05 AM
      I remember "waking up" with my intention focused on writing my recalled dream. Which i could recall at the time and wrote it down easily. A day later I looked back in my dream journal to read the dreams I have recorded. To my surprise i could not find my recalled dream from the night a day ago. The dream I had written down was gone.. strange.. i didnt even know false awakenings were as vivid as they are..
    11. Dream Character Awareness

      by , 05-13-2012 at 10:43 PM (Meanwhile In My Dreams...)
      My cousin and I are driving around a town just north of where my grandma lives. It's a fairly large town and were racing through the streets. Eventually we park at the mall but decide to just walk around, we start walking past the fairgrounds and the factory areas when a girl runs past us and toward some warehouse. I start chasing her but she jumps on top of the building. 'whoa I think I'm Dreaming' I do one reality check and try to fly, but I can't. The girl gets away, and when I turn around there is some guy standing there staring at me. Come with me he says and starts walking down the road. my cousin is nowhere to be seen and I can't shake the feeling that I'm dreaming. He leads me into some theatre but we don't leave the front concession room. He pulls out a suitcase and when he opens it up there is something on it that says telepathy. He explains to me that what is in the syringe will make us able to talk to each other telepathically. He sticks a needle in his arm, then mine. As we start talking without speaking I notice that he knows a lot about me. I become fully lucid suddenly and Know I am dreaming. The Unrealness of the whole situation makes me aware. I then ask the guy what it feels like to know your in someone else's dream but he starts to ignore me. I ask again and he looks at me and replies, "How does it feel to Know that this is not your real body and that your real body is laying in bed somewhere? Can you Feel your Body?" I then Start to feel my real body laying in a cool bed with my face on the down pillows. I wake Up in my bed at my grandmas house and have a strange feeling. I go and open the door and my grams on the other side and she scares me because I was not expecting it at all. She asks if I want breakfast and I say sure and follow her to the dining room. Hashbrowns Eggs, and Bacon are laid out and I sit across from my Gram and start to fill my plate. We eat in silence for awhile thinking. A strange thought crosses my mind and I think I should have stuck with doug so I could have caught a ride back home.That thought breaks the illusion and I realise I am dreaming. My gram is gone but I'm still siting in the dining room.I start to hear a noise and can't tell what it is. I suddenly recognise the noise and am sleeping on the couch, My dog freaking out wanting to go outside.
    12. WBTB Fail

      by , 05-11-2012 at 08:11 AM (My Dream Journal; Mentis est Infinata)
      Last night, I had a FA. I was in bed. I was thinking about doing a WBTB. Unfortunately, my thoughts were too sluggish (Because it was a dream) and I thought WBTB required you to not move at all after waking up. Should have done a reality check. Note to self: Do a reality check whenever I even think about lucid dreaming.

    13. First Post, Second Successful LD

      by , 05-10-2012 at 12:10 AM
      Posting this late, but last night I had my second successful LD, after having read a lot on this site several hours before.

      On both of my lucid dreams that I've had, (WILD) I start to float around my bedroom, then do a few checks to make sure I'm dreaming.

      Last night after I checked the light switch, I opened my window and floated around outside, and decided to fly, and immediately rocketed up into the night, which promptly caused me to plunge into darkness and forget what I was doing and why. I immediately ended up in the mudroom of my house, and had somewhat of a false awakening. I wasn't sure if I was still dreaming, and then my dad came up to me and started talking about my finances. Because I had mentioned to him previously that I have been attempting lucid dreaming, and he seemed to think the idea strange, I decided not to discuss that I had just been flying around outside in a lucid dream.

      Despite the fact that I could remember being outside flying just before I was speaking to him, for some reason I lost my lucidity and I remember thinking this is real, I'm awake. Shortly after, I came around, back in my bed, obviously, and realized that I probably could have kept things going had I used better tactics and dream stabilization.

      Maybe I'll fare better tonight. Or rather right now . . .
    14. 4th May 2012 - First Lucid Dream

      by , 05-08-2012 at 09:23 PM
      I was in a foggy, snowy environment. I believe there were mountains in the distance but the fog was so dense that I couldn't be sure. Out of the fog a white fox came pacing towards me. I got the feeling the fox knew me and that I knew it, it continued to pace towards me without unlocking its gaze from me. I become suspicious of my environment and perform a reality check by looking at my hands. I had an extra finger! The dream dissolves, becoming more and more foggy, before I seemingly awake.

      Although, I hadn't awoken. I was laying in bed but still something felt very odd, I checked the time twice, and the time had changed. I checked my hands to make sure and I now had 7 fingers. I realised I was still dreaming and got excited, the dream faded again and I actually awoke.

      I was still in a daze, unsure of what happened, but I attempted going back to sleep. I was laying in my bed with eyes closed when all of a sudden my body just felt weightless, like a feather. I gradually opened my eyes and checked my hands, I again had 7 fingers and knew I was dreaming, but I checked the clock to make sure, it was changing times.

      I lifted myself from bed, kind of unsteadily and was shocked by how realistic my room felt, yet it was still kind of dreamy. There were slight differences to real life though, I noticed something pulled out from under my bed, and the drawer in my desk was open.

      I decide I want to try flying, I walk up to my wall/window and imagine myself phasing through it, I put my hand on it and it just slips through the wall. I edge the rest of my body through and it feels like my entire body is being squashed as I pass through, it was a really strange sensation. As I reach the outside world, my weightless body floats down into the garden.

      I am again in awe at how realistic the dream is, I could feel the grass between my toes and the cool air. I assume it was early morning as the dream was dimly lit, I want extra light so I try to brighten the dream but it only gets washed out and blinding, so I tone it back down.

      I then try to fly, I leap up into the air but I am unable to sustain the flight, and instead simply leap over the back fence into a small garden, nothing but grass surrounded by fence. I try to leap into the air again, only this time I shoot right up, flying higher and higher and eventually into the clouds. I can see all the houses and gardens below me and I am beginning to see the curvature of the Earth.

      I begin flying, it was a surreal feeling. I am in a superman pose although I notice I am quite bad at turning. I move my legs and just about manage to perform a turn. As I'm flying by this building, I attempt to smash the windows in it with telekinetic powers, but fail.

      I come across this zoo-like area, there's only one cage with animals in it and they were polar bears. They are fighting it out. I wonder why the zoo is closed, but notice a sign that mentioned it was Saturday but that the theme park was still open.

      I fly down a bit more and see queues of people and roller-coasters, all tightly packed together. I fly up into the inner-workings of the roller-coasters, a small dimly lit box where all the roller-coaster tracks passed through. I am almost hit by the coasters several times, and make sure I can pass through the roller-coaster tracks like I did with my wall so I know I am not going to be hit.

      I cannot find a way out of this room, but notice in the distance a group of kids swinging down on ropes and watching the coasters zoom by. I hover up to them and grab onto one of their ropes as they pull me up.

      I begin to lose lucidity, I walk down a flight of stairs and become lost in this house. I ask a woman if she knew the way out, but she seemed to be kind of lost too, there were lots of false doorways with nothing but brick walls behind them. Eventually we go down this tiny flight of stairs and have to duck under a low roof with a tiny door at the end.

      Things blur here and I lose a lot of vividness and all my lucidity.

      Non-lucid segment:
      I find myself in town. I am an earth-bender and somebody else is a fire-bender. We decide to combine out elements to make a lava-element. It gets out of control and lava is spewing up from the ground and lava golems are rising out and attacking.

      I try to control it by restricting my earth element but fail. I go get the fire-bender back, who was just driving away in his fancy car. I get in the driver's seat of his car and drive it back down to where the chaos is happening, smashing his car into another parked outside a store, and then we stop the lava.

      I realise in the intensity of performing lava abilities that my earth-bending has become much more powerful, I am able to move people underground, effectively teleporting them, just by surrounding them in earth. Everyone is fascinated with my new power and we do a bunch of experimenting with it, before I wake up.
    15. Old Entries 5 False Awakening Leads To Lucidity

      by , 04-29-2012 at 05:21 AM (Meanwhile In My Dreams...)
      We're Drinking and it is me ashton mike myles charlie and JP Mike Myles Charlie JP decide to go somewhere and Mike asks me to watch his dog. I'm walking into the apartments with it when some guy yells hey thats my dog. He runs up and my mom and albert come out of the apartment to see what all the racket is about. The guy starts to go into a story of how he lost his dog and all this and I know I have to give him his dog. The guy decides to kick it for a bit and this just makes me more mad. Eventually I have ashton kick him out. as were walking with him from the kitchen to the door I notice he is paying albert for the dog and i say that the money should be mine. I wake up in bed. relieved that the whole dog incident had been a dream I look around the room and see myles is waking up as is zach. We are in some house in jette and Its a house I lived in at one point but is not mine right now. Seemed like a mix between my grams and moms house. we go into the living room and get charlie and JP and some other kid that reminds me of maxwell. We go back to the room, which is located where my grams and ashtons bedroom is. just then some step mom of sorts or like just married in something like that, steps into the room and tells us we have to leave. When she leaves we complain about her, then myles and I say were just gonna jump out the windows to get to the whip. then I remember something and ask chuck to front me some money l till tomorrow, he says of course and unzips his back pack. myles jumps out the window on the wall parallel to the door and I wait for chuck before I jump out of the window on the other wall. Myles Is already in the car when I hop in the seat behind him and JP in front and chuck in back with me. We start to drive back to poison from jette when myles pulls out some bottles, one of smirnoff and one bud lite, which he gives me and I down. After finishing it I notice the car in front of us is a cop and JP was chugging the bottle. The cop then pulls over a bit like he wants us to pass him. myles doesn't and he turns on his lights and another on comes pulling up and blocks the other half the road while the first cop pulls all the way over. Myles just drives between the to and up over the hill before swanness .we see one more cop at three dog down and then when we start going over the bridge some metal barricade of sorts, that looks like something out of a playstation tony hawk game, is blocking most the road. myles barely makes it between the barricade and the rails. when I see this barricade I get Deja Vu because it was in the dream I just had about Isis. I look at chuck, is this a dream i think, and I lash out telekineticly with my mind to test it. Right when I do I realise it is a dream and some laughing comes from the front of the seat. everything goes black. I'm not scared I know i'm just inside my head. Then I open my eyes awake.
