Date of Dream: TUE 4 JUL - 2017 Dream No. 146 - Cortex Strikes Back I dreamt that I was the one fighting Dr. Neo Cortex from Crash Bandicoot and it happened in my own house. Cortex had set up an array of chainsaws in the garage that I had to disconnect from the power chords in order to turn them off... I had to do this five times before I could defeat him. The first two disconnections were easy. The third connection was challenging and I had to do some problem solving before touching the saws. Then the fourth time stepped up in difficulty again. There were saws crossed over each other and when two of them touched, running in the opposite direction, there was a massive spark and there was now a full on fire in the garage. I don't remember anything else that happened in this dream. Dream Trophies Achieved: - None
Date Of Dream: SAT 24 DEC - 2016 Dream No. 79 - Masters Of The Elements The dream started at my old house, in the sitting room. I was sitting on the yellow couch with a mobile phone in my hands and I would be receiving constant phonecalls from my friend JO. What was really annoying though was that every time we'd finish a conversation and hang up, she'll call back straight away! This kept happening quite a lot of times. Eventually, I saw that the analogue clock on the wall said 9:05 and I said to JO, “Please, try not to call back until at least 9:30”. I don't remember the events in that scene afterwards. I think the dream had skipped on to another part. So, here comes the more exciting part: It's in a building which has a blue vinyl floor, similar to the look of Lapis Lazuli in Minecraft. The main door of the room opens to show Mr B with a massive group of girls behind him. Now I don't exactly remember what he said but what I do know is that Ms A was already in the room and Mr B is saying something to her about his choir. So the girls went in to join Ms A and myself and Mr B left. There were these vendors in the room, almost like cordial or lolly dispencers. What was really happening was that Ms A and all the girls were filling up plastic cups with these random sugar-coated fruits. During that time, I approach one of the girls, a stranger that seems to have some weird energy about her. I can see yellow in her and so that's when I come to a conclusion about who she is. It is then that she lets out this giant burst of electricity... The room was now pitch black and she shot out these terrifying volts of light blue electricity, so that's when my conclusion was supported. Now the electricity she let out made loud zapping noises, as if she was letting out heaps of the element, unleashing her power. During the times she would let her electricity work, I was shaken with fear but then electricity was not a bad element as I knew she could only gain electricity through a life of happiness and zest. I decided it was time to tell her about the power she possessed and so I go to her, “It seems to me that you are Master of Electricity” and then I also explained further so she would know why. After I told her all this, she became astonished... Her face clearly expressing the new insight she had received. And then I go to her, “And look, I am Master of Ice”. I demonstrated the element to her by trying to deliberately exhale excessively. What came out was a streaming breath of cold air which was proof of the ice element. Once again, she was extremely surprised. I don't where I was after that... I know I was in the same complex but was just in a random area. There I bumped into Mr O'N but he did not have the same appearance as he does in waking life. In the dream, he had a slightly different figure and his hair was a lot greyer. There were people with him who I had guess to be his wife and then all daughters. There was talk that he was the owner of the temple but the problem arose that the temple could be sold to someone else for a low price which was not the wish of Mr O'N and his family. Next, I found myself outside the complex. It was a cold day, the sky was grey, the grounds were wet and it looked like it had just finished raining. I was standing in the “entrance” which was undercover. Approaching me was some Asian boy from a school called Beaconsfield High School. We talked but I don't remember what was talked about. Afterwards, JO made an appearance but for some strange reason, she was wearing Mazenod (an all boys school in real life) uniform... I don't really remember us talking about anything though. I then decided to take a walk and eventually, I came across this building that was a combination of a house and a commercial building. This was Mrs O'N's dwelling... Note that this one is not the wife of Mr O'N. Now there was all this tall grass overcrowding the place and so that gave me real clue as to what part she had to play in the dream. I had determined that this grass could only “be the work of Mrs O'N and her calm nature as well as her inner and outer beauty”. My next job was to actually find her so I congratulate her but for some reason, I could never seem to find her. It looks like this was going to be a quest for the remainder of my dream. I was then going back towards the original area of the complex but I was going a different way. Rather than going from the outside, I was walking fast through some corridor and in that corridor was a billboard, sitting on an a-frame. On the billboard was information regarding a performance from VCE soloist WB which was taking place on “3 June 2017”, hence in waking life she will be in year 12 in 2017. The background of the billboard was navy blue with plain white text. So then I was near the complex again but outside, I think this time just at the side of the temple... Although it didn't really look like a temple at all. As I am approachig that area, I see LB, the younger sister of WB, along with an Asian family, a mum, a little girl and a little boy. They are talking to LB but as I approach, LB turns to give me a look of displeasure which yet draws me to another conclusion in regards to the elements... I had just discovered the Master of the last element. And so I tell LB that she is Master of Fire and she can't believe it... But she is not surprised, she rather rolls her eyes at me like I am talking nonsense and I see this as living proof of the raging fire within her. But I decide to make my point known to LB and I eventually get her to breath out. As she breathes, she releases hot air which is also proof of her ownership of fire. At the point, she does acknowledge her pleasant surprise with another facial expression but then quickly goes back to her default frown. Currently, the electricity girl is also with us and I tell the girl that she can actually make the formation of a Christmas Tree with her electricity. When I say this, LB looks at me as If I'm a mental case but then I go to LB, “All you have to do is believe... Imagine!” and that's when the tree is made from the girl's electricity which is this time yellow electricity like the colour of her element... With the backdrop of the dream world becoming black again. I think I sub-consciously knew that the dream was coming to end because I made another comment that Mrs O'N was still nowhere to be found and then I woke up.

Morning of January 30, 2017. Monday. All the members of the Waltons family each have singular kiosks set up along the roadside in a straight line, adjacent to an old warehouse. It is a back road in an unknown region (but is probably meant to be Walton’s mountain). Each of the Waltons is selling something different. Mother Walton is selling handmade potholders and oven mitts. Grandma Walton is selling preserves in jars. (She is at the last kiosk on the left.) John Boy Walton is apparently attempting to sell the books of his he once had printed from a subsidy publisher he was victimized by. I am not sure what the others are selling (though Jim Bob is seemingly with slingshots). It is nighttime eventually, and rather dark out. No one else but me (other than the Waltons) had been in the area. A very small meteor comes down and hits mother Walton’s kiosk but does not seem to do much damage. Another one just misses Grandma Walton’s stand. I tell them that the meteors are coming down in a particular pattern. They do not at all seem to be concerned about the falling meteors even with the two close calls. I predict where the next one will hit and I am correct. I go and put the contents of the small meteorite in a large transparent glass container. Looking closely into the container, holding it up, I see a few bits of rock. I also see a curious orange glow on the right side of the container. Near the center of the container is an odd structure that looks cylindrical and constructed of green glowing glass shards that are long and thin but also resemble a burning cigarette (other than the embers being green). After a short time, there are two oversized beetles in the container, bigger than my hands. One is a golden Christmas beetle, the other resembling a green weevil mixed with a rhino beetle. I am thinking of how they came from another planet and somehow survived within the meteor (even though they seemed to rapidly grow from out of the embers), though I consider how there is only one of each (though each is beautiful in its own way). I am also thinking that they are too different to reproduce since they are seemingly different species. No sooner do I hold that thought for a moment when they start to mate. The shiny green beetle climbs atop the golden one and they remain mating until my dream ends. The Waltons, especially Grandma and John Boy (who are standing the closest to me) stare at the event, not speaking.
i think this one was a WILD but i am not 100 % sure because i didnt initiated a WILD so maybe it was a DEILD from a nonlucid. i lay in my bed and imagine how i run down a street. at the beginning my movement is way off and i cant see anything but after some time it feels more and more like real running and i start to have visuals. i find myself in a street that where on my way back from school in those days i went to school. while running i rub my hands too. i smash against something that gives a boost in stability. after turning right i have the feeling that the dream is stable enough. i have good visuals and bodycontrol. i approach a flower and look in detail. it moves a bit and it looks pretty nice. i turn around and i see a cherry tree that seem to be in the phase it normally is in springtime. i see small pink flowers. i fly up and look at it. then i land again and think about what to do. "okay Three step task no 1: phasing." i move to a garage and think to just phase thru but i decide different and draw a portal on it. the drawing is white like made of dust. hm so how to open it. i push but i already know it wont work. "it would be to small anyways." i draw a bigger one and this time i pull at a little edge. it moves and i see pure blackness behind. i say out loud: "to pandora". i even turn around and repeat it another time but again my expectation is not too high plus i didnt imagine anything while saying pandora so fair enough i jump into the void of pure blackness. i find it funny and start making somersaults by flapping my arms in circles. i can feel the movement distinct. visuals come back and i find myself in a apartment. "okay three step task now." i phase thru the kitchen wall forth and back. then i move into a room that looks like a workroom with a lot of books stapled everywhere. "Mass TK." in my foggy lucid head i think for Mass TK i need more then 10 things simultaneously in the air. i wave my hands around and some books start to levitate. i manage to make 2 times 4-5 books in small groups fly around but its difficult to count if its actually 10 items so i decide to do it differently. i jump phase out of the window and accelerate down to the ground. i dont mind slowing down and smash feet first on the ground. "so Mass TK is also things bigger than human. a car should do." i choose which one i want to lift. not too big but not a small one neither. i start to concentrate on it and at the beginning nothing happens. "ah right i need to imagine how it starts float and not just stare strained on it." and the car starts floating. first the front then the whole car. i cant control it too good where it floats. it turns and crashes into the ground. i lift it again and again it smashes. "good enough now step three. element manipulation." without thinking to much i start throwing my arms around like throwing fireballs on the car. the car btw changed and is now a way smaller car of the size of a child. it is on the ground and instead of throwing fireballs it seems like i throw very small pieces of i dont know Bolognese? i concentrate a little more pull my hand back wait and focus some energy in it until i see it starts burning and i throw a big fireball into a passing car. nothing happens even tho i thought maybe it explodes? suddenly a coworker and friend approaches me with some stuff in his hands. we start talking but there is the voice of our boss thru some speakers out of a building. he says something like "K are you coming? how long do i have to wait, this is working time" we stop our convo and he pushes me the things he carry into my hands and hurrys away. i walk back into the apartment with the stuff in my hands. i reconsider to not drift away: "i dont need that stuff its random and i have better things to do." i get the idea that i want to throw this stuff into the wall. i throw the first pieces but they just smash against the wall and fall down. okay i want it to stack in the wall like darts in cork. i throw again and they go half thru and into the wall and stuck there. i am satisfied and push myself thru the wall and out of the house again. i float a small round thinking what to do. "ah next to the three step tasks there are personal tasks. i could summon my cat." i kneel down next to a pickup truck and move my fingers like i would have something in it and call my cat like i would in WL. not a second and i see a cat approaching me from under the truck. "thats not my cat!" i keep looking around and 2 more cats from the left side are coming. not my cat neither. i call him again and look up front where he just appears and approaches me. he looks slightly different but it is him. i pet him shortly. i really wanted to do this longer and soak in some details but suddenly my mother appears telling me something like "you guys are old enough so that i can leave for half a year and work in swizerland for a catering company. i need to talk to the guy whos doing this blabla." for some reason it makes me feel not good and i loose lucidty and visuals like when i cant be sure if i still dream or am awake and hear my mum talking. i decide to just stand up and walk around. i also rub my hands and it works. the dream gets more clearly again and i can assure myself that i am still in control. "okay what else can i do? it dont make sense to do another personal goal... what would give some more points? ah i could try to get invisible." i cant to this so far so i tell my girlfriend that seem to morphed out of my mum that i want to get invisible but i want to put on a ring that helps. i start looking in my pockets and ask her to look into hers. i find something that feels like a ring in my right backpocket. i get it out and it looks different then it felt in my pocket. it is black and looks similar to a knucks. i try to put it on but i need to find out the right orientation. after putting it on i ask her if i am invisible but i can see myself still clearly and she shakes her head. shortly after i feel like waking up and decide it is time to write all that down.

I'm in another world with dragons, samurai and some form of magic. Many heroes are looking for a hidden treasure, but fail to find it. A small, bald old man stands on the edge of a jungle, on a cliff. In front of him about five kilometers away there is a massive chasm in the side of a mountain. I can see a cavern full of treasure inside the chasm. The piles of gold are massive. The old man flies down to the treasure. A bit later a boy dressed like a warrior follows him. He rides a massive dragon made of water. A magic spell he knows, I assume. He also has two small dragons following him. The boy enters the cavern full of gold and confronts the old man. I'm there with my brother as well. The boy is angry that the old man has been hiding the treasure all this time. The old man tries to calm him down by saying it was for a good reason. I look around and spot a huge egg. It's the size of a house. There's a metallic serpent coiled around the egg that looks like a colorful jewel. It looks quite pretty. "You have a dragon egg here?!" I ask, but before he can say anything, an adult red dragon enters the cavern. We all spread out and get ready to fight. The small dragons that followed the boy try to attack the red dragon with fire. It does nothing. The red dragon rears it's head, preparing to turn us to ash. Just before the flames reach me, the scene ends. I'm in an ancient Japanese city. My brother was killed by the dragon. There is a statue of my brother in the middle of the town. There's writing carved all over the statue, memorable things my brother said. People have a large brush and paint over the carvings with ink, like writing them again. It's my turn, but my hands shake too much to use the brush. I dip my hand in the ink and swipe over the word "No". I walk away and fail to hold back tears. I bawl and collapse into a little ball against a wall.
I woke up in my room. It was completely dark all around. I left it and thought that this may be a dream. I made a nose plug RC and it succeeded. I was lucid. I thought "Lights on" and light turned on in most of rooms, however some of them remained dark. I recalled a ToTM basic task about igniting a house. I went to my kitchen and flied into a window, phasing outisde through the glass. It was early morning, still dark. I flied towards neighbor's house, trying to set it on fire mid-air with a gesture, but it didn't worked. I landed on the road and started rubbing my hands while focusing on some potted flowers. They instantly set ablaze. With more rubbing and focusing I set some trees around the house on fire and watched as it spread on the house. Then I moved along the road, trying to fly again but for some reason I couldn't do it. I recalled an advanced task with car lifting. There was another house with a garage. I phased through fence and it's walls and found an old Fiat 126p car. I lifted it up and phased back to the road. Then I placed it one the road and entered it, turned the engine on and drove. I drove along a completely ruined road with huge holes in it. I lost lucidity. I drove to my school, entered a classroom and sat by a table. Again I thought that this might be a dream and made the RC. I became lucid again. Teacher - a redhead woman in late forties asked me "What makes you think this might be unreal?" I didn't responded, instead I tried to phase out through the wall. I doubted that I might be able to do that and failed, then lost lucidity again. I found myself back in my home village. There was some big ceremony coming. I was wearing a black suit. I left my old school and moved to a bus stop. There was a huge bus, my friend went out of it and I greeted him.
i sit on a street with a good friend of mine. we talk and for some reason she is very mean to me. i hug her and she asks why i do this. i tell her i know she dont like it too much but its nice. she says its more than a little... i get lucid and do a nosepinch. she asks/ wants something from me. i remember to play tic tac toe and ask her if she mind to play a round with me. she agrees annoyed and i throw paper and she stone. i win. i tell her we need to play until one of us has three. she roles her eyes and continue playing halfhearted. its difficult to see if she does paper or scissors because she nearly dont move her hand at all... she wins in the end. i notice we sit in the middle of the street and cars are coming so we start walking. i look over a bridge to the cloads and make them move faster and faster. it looks pretty cool. we continue walking and i walk thru a bench and a pole. now i focus on my right hand because i want to do a decent fireball. i focus on the feeling of energy in my hand and at the beginning my back of my hand shows up. then when i feel the energy i turn my hand around and open it a little. i see a small and weak fluid blue flame. i feel that i convulse some fingers and i relax them. i focus on the little flame and make it levitate (never accomplished a floating fireball so far). the flame rises and i make it bigger. it has the size of an grapefruit. it is yellow and orange and turns around and has a little pattern. cool. we are under the bridge now and there are two guys. i think they talk about me or the fireball? i throw the ball on the head of one guy. a splutter is to hear and his hair burns shortly but it seems not to hurt and he smiles. we keep walking and i try one more time. now i see my friend before me and i approach her and want to show her my new ability. i summon a fireball and this time concentrate to expand it. the ball gets big as scooter or something similar and very compact. one can hear how much energy is focused on this small area. i throw it on a car and you can hear a loud crackle and spit. some raindrops that where on the car evaporate but the car itself dont burn. she seems not impressed and i approach her while she talks to someone and intimate him that i want to talk to her alone. i ask her what her problem with me is and i get an answer but as far as i know it was nothing specific. we move by a sea and there are a lot of pigeons swimming there like ducks (). i count some of them that are in a row. i stop by ten and make them all float via TK. some time after i make some float again and make them turn to the side and then duck them into the water (). i notice that my brother is walking infront of me. he looks very young. maybe 10. i see that he makes one pigeon levitate. i do a handgesture and around 15 more start to levitate next to his. he looks to me and i smile and he smiles too. i go to him and we walk together. i tell him "you know this is a dream right? you sleep in your bed and me in mine. this is my dream and nobody except maybe you knows what you are dreaming." he smiles and we keep on walking until i wake up
several scenes that started in my room/false awakenings. i found those interesting and like them good recall with long detailed dreams. i fly without a body over a beautiful scenery with hills and beautiful clouds and sunset. i get lucid by the fact that i am flying and manage to do a nosepinch. i ask the dream to fly me in the direction of the sun because it looks so beautiful. at first there is no reaction but then my inner self seem to relent and my direction changes. i fly over a hill and the sun goes down/disappears and a wave of darkness comes into being. i wonder why and whats up with my inner self and see a train moving over some rails into a mountain. i expect it to crash with the mountain and wait for the explosion but nothing happens. i feel that i have a body now and can direct the way i fly. i see a small and abandoned filling station and decide to land there. i accelerate strongly and smash into the ground terminator style but without damaging the ground. i start moving and see a snake and a basketball. i make them levitate but i want to mass TK so i see another basketball and some more snakes and in the end i make 6 items consisting of several basketballs and snakes are levitating in the air but pushed a little together so the snakes entangle around each other and the balls. i let them drop and keep moving. i start running very fast and the stony ground changes into sandy ground. i find myself in a park and see some ducks. i want to make a fireball and remember obfusc8´s hint to feel the heat in my hands. i do so and throw the fireball at one duck and indeed a fireball is flowing over and lightening the duck. it starts flying hysterically and lands on a three. while flying the fire goes on and of two times. for some reason the surrounding gets a little hostile and i feel like leaving. i get followed by some birds? i reach the edge of the park and for what ever reason the ninja turtles approach me. i shortly think about to throw a fireball at them but decide that its better to have them as friends so i approach them and say hi. one of them see´s the birds and says something like "no wonder they act like this what would you/we say if someone would come into our territory" sounds reasonable. nevertheless i try another fireball but this time i have a basketball in my hands and try to make it inflame and throw it but there is no fire and just throw a stupid basketball... [dont ask me where als the basketballs are coming from] and we turn around and walk away. they morphed into a group of friends of some kind and we walk down a street. i see one is wearing a watch and i pick up his arm looking at it several times and amuse myself about the fact that the time is always a different one. a car stops right in front of me on the pavement and i stop next to it. there is a woman and a man sitting inside. i start to knock hardly against the front window and try to smash it but it feels a little like plastic and it dont want to break. i dont accept that and so i squad down put my hands underneath the car and just turn it on the head. the passengers try to leave the car but i push it against the wall so the door they try to leave is blocked. good enough i think and keep on moving. my group is turning right and i am a little behind thinking about how to score some more points because i haven´t prepped any specific goals. i think "ah i could phase thru something" and see a construction site with a lot of framework. and i just move right thru it. a SUV stops at the crossroad and i run there and jumpphase inside the car. i push the driver outside and he hangs outside but still holds the wheel so i push a little harder and kick the accelerator. i drive down the street that is one big construction side. the street is broken at some places and there are a lot of scaffolding. so far i always tried to drive a car the right way but this time i think why not phase with the car and just keep on driving straight thru several scaffolds past some shops. cool i think. and while driving i think about whats next and remember my personal goal to change a banana into an apple [the wrong way btw]. i hit the handbrake, yank the wheel to the side and phase out of the car. the car turns to the side and starts to roll over several times and crashes into a shop with a moving staircase and moves down the stairs. i dont mind and think about a banana. i imagine how a banana looks and want to reach into my pocket but i get a little nervous and the dream starts to fade and instead of trying to stabilize or deild i just wake up...
this night my recall was way better. a lot of wakenings a lot of dreams and frags and way easier recalling. again SSILD this time i fall asleep on my back while i tried halfhearted to WILD. woke up not so long later with a short dream i dont recall because i decided to turn on my side and try to fall asleep while doing some ssild again. dont remember exactly how the dream started but it was fast-paced and hectic dream. but no nightmarish or scary. i see (myself?) my brother in front of a bigger door. it is closed and he tries to enter. he knocks and smashes against it but the door is to heavy i realize i am dreaming but i have no body so i say to my brother to phase thru the door. after some seconds he does so and is inside of the medieval building. he is on the run because he/we get followed by some people. i see how he runs thru different corridors and makes himself invisible (so he gets transparent) and uses another dreamcontrol i cant remember. i find myself next to him in a body and we run together. i instantly remember my three step task (finally!) but first we need to get away. we phase thru a lot of doors then walls into different rooms and thru darkness [probably because phasing thru several different thick walls without expectation] where we head to the light. we end up outside and jump into some bushes/woods. he tells me to make myself invisible but i cant [never could so far...]. we hide behind some bushes and we see the opponents down the hill. while i stay behind a tree he moves on and we get sighted. he runs away but i stay in my hide and think about how to attack them. i remember my second three step and look around. i see some smaller campfires and i try to move the fire via TK. it wont work and the fire goes out. i try to move the firewood near me but i have some problems with it. when i manage to do it i get sighted and i jump up and run away. i jump out of the bushes on a yard and jump high up on some roofs. i jump from roof to roof till i feel save a little. i try to decelerate the dream and not think about the opponents. i sit there and again try to make some fire between my hands. i hold t hem together and while pulling them apart the skin sticks together for a short period of time. the flames that appear are very weak. i look down and see right under the roof where i am sitting a guard. i throw the "shadow of a ball of fire" down at him but miss him two times. i try it with some lightning but it doesnt work at all. i squeez some water out of my hand but that has obviously no function at all expect that i get noticed by the guard. i keep on moving on the roof and see the guard coming up a ladder. i kick him down but he comes up again. i take him with TK and smash him down on the ground and lift a car that stands around and park it on him and then throw a refrigerator on top of it but it wedge in the narrow alley [i incubated to stack up some cars and then adv. morph it into a building/tower but it didnt play out that way] i rub my hands together, calm down and raise my awareness. i decide to change the scenery to get off this stupid theme of getting followed and attacked. i jump of the roof and approach and phase thru a wall. i find myself in darkness again [feels similar to the void but after a second thought it felt different because there was gravity and not nothingness] still running. while running i say to me "a calm nice place... a calm nice place.... a calm nice place..." and again i see a light at the end of the "room" after moving thru the light i see some palms and feel that i managed to change the dreamscene. sadly shortly after i wake up. after a waking without journaling and a short non lucid i find myself in same scenery like in previous lucid shortly after we phased thru all the walls and before we jumped into the woods. i pass by a door with three different writings on it. one says "exit" while still approach the woods again i get lucid and decide to not do this villain thing again so i turn around and approach the door with the exit sign. i do a nosepinch and remind myself that this is a dream again. trying not to think about the guards. but since it works the opposite i hear behind me: "wait who there!!" i shout "your mama" start running and phase thru the door. i turn left and jump high several plains. there are fields and houses. i look down and see that it is pretty high. to score some easy points i jump down alle the way to the ground just to turn around and jump up again. i sit on a roof and feel the dream fading. i try to stabilize but since i dont have a real plan for the lucid i let go and wake up... [lazy me...]
I was sitting on a bed, and was making out with a girl. Which was fun. She laid on her back, and we started having sex in missionary, but not really. Oddly, we were still wearing underwear, and I was just kind of rubbing against her. I noticed some guys I used to know from school where around. Stig, one of them, looked at me with that "what do you know, he's finally done it" expression (I used to a pariah in school, and everybody knew I would never get laid - they were right). I was in a room, and I think the curtains caught fire. We put it out (there were a few of us), but the fire kept burning inside the window frame (it has hollow?) making it impossible to put out. My grandfather was there (on mother's side), possibly grandmother as well. I was flying a jet over ocean, but it didn't feel like I was inside the jet, it felt more like I was seeing the jet in third person, and I was desperately hanging onto it while still being in control. It was hard to stay in control, and at one point the altimeter went under zero, which should be impossible (a few meters under sea level). Regardless of my troubles, I engaged several airborne enemies using the jet's miniguns.
had a lot of fragments with some wakings over the night but didnt write anything down till morning. after GF left the house i did SSILD and felt asleep again even though it was already 8:30 and i had around 9h of sleep... cant do this every day but yea... earned a decent lucid with not too much access to memory.. i cross a street with my brother. i think about jumping up a pretty high wall, some lucidity streams in. i see two pretty ugly women, fat and with a stupid look in their face hearing music thru earphones. one of them has one in her ear and one in her nose. all this results in me being lucid. i sing a song about how stupid those two are and continue to move with my bother. i dont do any RC... but i jump up the wall i saw. my brother continues to walk on the pavement. i jump down where a gap in the wall is and smash down pretty hart on something loose on the ground. i smile to my brother and repeat it one more time. i jump next to him and start using TK. with a simple hand gesture i let a parking truck behind me levitate. i wonder shortly that its so easy but i keep going and "throw" it some meters in front of me on the pavement on a cat/dog of an owner... i instantly feel a little bad. but we keep moving and the car and the "accident" disappeared. i let a older chubby man float around and turn him in air. but i dont want to do any harm so i try to let him down softly on his feet but he has problems to stop turning around and so it needs some more seconds and mange to set him down save. we continue walking and i think about how to make some points... for some reason i just dont remember my 3 step task or any of my incubated goals what so ever. so i decide to make some fire in my hands. as some of you know this is not a specialty of mine. while walking i imagine energy flow into my right hand and visualize a fire but its not working. to concentrate better i stop moving. and use both my hands. i hold them like i would hide a ball in between them and slowly pull them apart. i have a small flame in my right hand but i cant expand it and it turns off fast. i repeat it and my palm is burning a litte but again cant do anything with it. i concenrate a little more and now i have a small ball of fire in between my hands and while i pull them apart the fire is expanding. i hear a background noise that says something similar like " Plz dont do any fire here (so nothing starts burning) and nevertheless the pro guy who do flames is in town so there is nothing to win here" ignoring the voice i feel satisfied so far with my fire bending and i continue walking with my brother. i tell him i want to hear some set of Sigil. while we approach a house (of a previous dream i think) i ask him if he could ask out loud for some music by sigil. he asks and as we enter the house i hear some music. we approach a girl and i ask her if we can turn on sigil and she answers "this is sigil already" i am not sure but go with it and listen a little. i ask loud what to do now. i think about my personal goals thinking if i already did one by coincidence but i cant remember any and remember to summon my cat. i know cant say what was first. the idea of summon my cat or the black cat that sits next to the door. i see it now and think yea that is not my cat. i want to make mine appear right infront of me. i make a wipe around with my hand and blur the background a little and try to see my cat. i see some patterns but not really a cat. i stop and see my cat sitting right next to ne black one. nice i call him and he comes to me. i pet him a little and decide to wake up what i do so far not so satisfied with my commitment and outcome of the competition but i will try do to some decent daywork and incubate some cooler stuff. tomorrow i have to get up early so probably no lucid again... :/

Catching up on my DV dream journals, posting one LD for now instead of getting hampered trying to do one huge post compiling everything up to date. Sat, 30 Jul 2016: ~~!! Late a.m. !! Using GF incubation MILD, what I'd do got my mind thinking dreamy possibilities: Another later morning success around 7am!~~ There is this 2 part flying spaceship-like craft, I realize after first thinking it was two separate ships, one smaller with 2 pilots and a large one with many crew and passengers perhaps. The smaller part is trying to pilot the craft out of danger and I'm down below on a platform in a giant rectangular water reservoir of some kind like an enormous swimming pool. Someone is flooding it with a ton of water all of the sudden and my platform is being swung around wildly in the water. I call up to the people in the ship what is being done and that's when I see it is 2 parts connected and I see lots of crew/people in the larger section below the smaller section. The platform I'm on is pushed against a rocky wall with vines hanging down and I start thinking I should climb out and then get the more dreamy idea that it will be easy, and then heck I can just fly up out of here. I climb with ease and then fly andI am very joyful I have been liberated from a dire situation into a lucid dream!!! I am just away from the edge and don't hesitate to jump out over the turbulent pool and think about how wow I'm really sure I can fly over it and not fall in and then I suppress some emerging doubt (Sivason's lesson: http://www.dreamviews.com/dream-yoga/139475-advanced-skill-1-suppressing-emerging-thoughts.html ) that could drop me down and make me lose lucidity, and I move on with confidence! I fly up to a few smaller buildings and then up to a larger building to see what's going on inside. Nothing interesting to see really. I start to get a few dreamscene fades where the whole scene is dropping out but I use the seeding ideas based on Sivason's but the opposite effect, flowering them instead of suppressing them - there is a time for each... and the ideas from Daniel Love about seeing patterns in things and I stabilized. I am getting very good at bringing back the same building or a building that looks a lot like the building that just faded away. I'm thinking about this while I do it and I am amazed at how well it is working and how clear my thinking is. Perhaps this is one benefit to late morning when you are closer to getting up for the day your head is more clear but the dreams tend to be more wispy so we need to incubate them and to feed them and keep them going with seeds of thoughts like "oh that didn't fade I see a tree emerging I see it for me…here!" and "that pattern over there even if that pattern is not there yet I create it and it grows." Before long my scene is stabilized. I am floating down a residential street with large 2 and 3 story properties and I see an old guy walking and I have a slight thought regarding messing around with him in some way but I decided instead to talk to him and see if he seems like an intelligent DC. I greet him and he says his name something like John Clare. I asked him what he represents and even think as I'm saying it in the dream, I think to myself that the question is not very clear if you're trying to ask something about your subconscious. The answer was he was an astronaut. I think about the astronaut reference recently in waking life and figure that's where this answer must have come from. It was an astronaut speaking on TV. I look up at this large two-story apartment house it seems it has a fairly large flame and smoke coming out the back right corner. I think I can be a hero in my dream and I fly down to see what's going on. The room next to it and the one before it look completely unfazed and I knock on the windows and tell the occupants there's a fire in the next room and I start heading down toward the fire. When I get to the window with the fire I can't see anything so I fly down to the entrance and go in the house and tell the mother of the house that they have a fire up in one of the rooms and I flew up their staircase and up to the room and lead a few other younger folks out from upstairs and down. The mother comes up and I see a tampon pad and say someone must have lit it but it looks like it's under control now. The mother says some of these birds were already here. We all head downstairs and as I'm about to leave I tell her "sure you can show your appreciation Spoiler for sexual content: by giving me a nice blow job." There is another beauty across the way and she gets my attention. The mother, good looking in a "girl next door" kind of way starts Spoiler for sexual content: going at my ahem as if to bring my thoughts back to her. I tell the other one she can jump on, in a moment, but the scene starts fading and I seed the thought that she has walked over to me and hopped on and I can feel it a bit before I fade completely back to bed smiling big! The day after I noted in my dream journal: "Try heavy visualization and incubation again for late morning chance…"
Morning of September 14, 2016. Wednesday. I am using a notebook computer as well as accessing the Internet in an unfamiliar residence which is apparently where my family and I live. Our oldest daughter is present at one point and she is also using her computer. The large room does not have much furniture and I am seated on the floor, my daughter also seated on the floor on the other side of the room. The common distortion of somehow “using the Internet” in an actual notepaper notebook occurs (where images sometimes move on the paper, though not in every such dream, and in this case, actual type appears rather than handwriting). I try to search for the term “Ghost Riders in the Sky”. I seem to have forgotten how to perform a search, at least in a more feasible manner. I type “Ghost Riders in the Sky” with a small keyboard so that it appears on the notebook paper. I then move the computer mouse across the notebook paper to near the top of the page and watch the image of the print move in line with the mouse. I seem to remember that by doing this, it activates the search. However, nothing happens. I then reason that one has to move the computer mouse more quickly so that it creates a sort of “momentum” as the print on the paper is then somehow “flung” into a virtual but unseen search engine box on the surface of the paper. I cannot seem to do it correctly. I reason that there must be a virtual impetus setting (for the computer mouse) of plus or minus and in a context menu but I cannot remember where it is. I ask my daughter if she can get the search function to work on her computer. She seems to discover that the search function is offline and informs me of this. Still, I decide to try a different computer, which I recall is in a different room off to my right. There is a very large rectangular wooden table that holds six computer workstations (the narrower end of the table parallel to the doorway), both towers and desktops, each with a large CRT monitor, which are arranged as three facing outward on each side. I decide to use the middle workstation on one side of the table; the side where the doorway is then to my left. The search still does not seem to be working after I type in the phrase “Ghost Riders in the Sky”. I notice that the USB cable that is required for the search function to work is at an angle, halfway out of the electrical outlet (which is a white upright surge protector power board with three outlets), but tipped to the left (which is based on two absurd notions; one, that a USB cable needs to be plugged in somewhere for an Internet search to work and two, that a USB cable would fit in an electrical outlet). I adjust the USB cable to push it down fully into the outlet which is on my right. It is in the outlet between where the desktop computer is plugged in (left side) and where the CRT monitor is plugged in (right side). Soon, there is a sizzling sound. I am not sure what is going on. I see an orange glow coming from the monitor without paying much attention to the side of the monitor looking more like a vent with equidistant horizontal louvers. Soon, there are sparks flying out of the outlet along with a bit of fire and more sizzling from the other workstations. I soon realize that I had better turn off and unplug everything. First, I turn off the switch on the power board, but the noise and fiery glow seems to grow and spread and I wonder if I had turned it on instead of turning it off (which is illogical as I had just been using the computer). I go around the table attempting to turn everything off. There is even a power board with three outlets hanging to the left of the doorway at about chest-level, which I also turn off and pull plugs out of. My wife Zsuzsanna comes in. Our youngest son and daughter come in and playfully walk clockwise around the table cheerfully and I tell them that they should leave. Although the fire becomes brighter and the sizzling louder, it does not really spread that far. Each fire mostly remains inside the perimeter of each computer workstation, which is looking more and more like an arrangement of tall vents with equidistant louvers that I mostly watch the fire through. There is hardly any smoke. Soon, the crackling and sizzling becomes a very strange metallic music. It is firstly an instrumental version of “Ghost Riders in the Sky”. The metal of the burning workstations “plucks” the song, though is not that loud. The gremlins (from the 1984 movie “Gremlins”), though remaining unseen, are “singing” - though not the actual lyrics, just “ya ya ya ya, ya ya ya ya” to the melody, though for the chorus, they sing “yippee-yi-ay, yippee-yi-o, ghost riders in the sky…” the title being mostly muttered and somewhat indistinct as they go back into the “ya ya ya ya” verse. As I stand in the doorway, I marvel at what seems a “frozen moment” of perfection (even though I know it will cost a lot of money to replace the computers). The thin metallic plucking of the melody sounds very distinct as each louver of the vents snaps, though the workstations (and vents) still appear as complete and undamaged through the fire. (The equidistant horizontal lines of light have appeared in previous dreams, akin to venetian blinds and relating to the nature of liminal space, including with the potential of greater clarity or lucidity, between dreaming and waking.) Although I consider this a beautiful and unique dream (analogous to the dream-self identity as the phoenix), it carries the same core meaning (and sleeping, dreaming, and waking components and inherent symbols) as the majority of my dreams since early childhood. Firstly, my unconscious dream self seeks to return to whole consciousness (which is often the primary goal of most dream-self incarnations though in many cases the dream self attempts to “escape” from the “interference” of whole consciousness, or does not want to wake yet) through use of computer technology (as only the conscious mind has viable thinking skills or a stable system of logic). The common “return flight” aspect is here, but in this case as the “ghost riders in the sky” (the sky often being symbolic of the conscious mind as being “above” the dream self), where fire is mentioned in the actual song, fire of which represents emergent (waking) awareness (or if one prefers, the emerging sun or light of day). Orange is also a factor of sentience (and the need to wake up) between yellow and red (which also represent states of consciousness when dominant, yellow or gold being the “softer” phase and red often indicating more of a need to wake, in my case, often after sleeping a little too long, relative to circadian rhythms). The color red increases the pulse and heart rate, and raises your blood pressure in preparation for waking. Red, orange, or yellow are typically the final dominant colors in my dreams (depending on the type), where blue typically serves as the opposite, that is, dream induction itself (or the calming of consciousness which transmutes as the “sky” but focuses via the “sun”).

Killer Whales and a Forest Fire I was with three friends on the shore of some large lake or an ocean. It was probably an ocean, considering there was four killer whales wandering close to the shore, almost like they were waiting for us to get in the water. (I have dream of killer whales a lot. Well, I've seen them in like 7 dreams in the past 3 years.) My mind is not focused. My thoughts wander, trying to make sense of the scene and for a moment the dream becomes a mess. The gist of it was that I was in a movie. I saw really short scenes of people going into the water getting away from the orcas. I think flying was involved. I focus and the burst of disjointed scenes end. I continue walking with my friends. We climb a hill and sit down to talk and enjoy the view. The friends I'm with were some of my oldest, but one of them was a girl I met on 7th grade. I didn't like her that much in school, but in the dream we enjoyed each others company. We continue up the hill, away from the water, and enter a pine forest. My friends start to run. I notice that I have no shoes, but I still run after them. Then suddenly some bushes near me catch on fire. The fire is small enough that we could probably put it out. We look for branches that we could cover the fire with and remove oxygen from the equation, I guess. The fire dies down on it's own. Some other DCs wander around in the forest and talk about some new type of paper being problematic. Another Monster I'm outside, playing a game similar to capture the flag. The twist here is that the flag is an orange glowing cube partly inside the player who has it... and the enemy team has a monster as a player. He's a big, long armed loosely humanoid monster with glowing eyes and sharp claws. He has no mouth, ears or anything like that, just glowing eyes. His body is completely black, it absorbed all light. The monster is fast. I take the cube from him and try to run, while my teammates try to buy me some time. I have the ability to boost, but it takes a second to start and I have to stop to start it. The monster is right behind me so that's not an option. The monster catches me.
Morning of August 24, 2016. Wednesday. Dream #: 18,146-05. Reading time (optimized): 3 min. I am with my family in an unknown location near a small oval pond of an area of about ten feet by six feet, seemingly late at night. There are no other discernible environmental features. Zsuzsanna is off to my left, our two youngest sons closer to me on my left, our youngest the closest. Our youngest son is fishing, but I eventually help him reel in a fish. It turns out to be a small pale bluegill (even though I had considered that there were no fish in the pond) with the hook stuck on the outside of his mouth on its right side, which is difficult to pull out. The tangibility and sense of movement and weight of catching a fish are amazingly realistic. When I throw it to my right instead of putting it on a stringer, I see a second pond, about the same size as the first, perpendicular to it and about two feet away from it. The water is only inches deep. There is a pile of bluegill about three or four high, almost covering the far half of the side of the pond, most caught within the last day or two. About a third are alive. I wonder which fish came from which body of water, but the second one is not deep enough to fish in now. Later, we walk near a ravine in an unknown location (where there is only part of a guardrail) near an urban area. It seems to be late afternoon. The scene is clear and detailed, with plenty of light to see at a distance. I see puddles far below and three big parallel fish on their stomachs about five feet apart, facing away from us. They are about four feet long and still alive. I tell Zsuzsanna two are sturgeons, but one is an alligator gar, but the imagery changes to feature the opposite. The scene is ambiguous, as they are similar in appearance. We teleport to the area near the fish far below. I warn our youngest son not to put his hand near the mouth of a gar, but he does after patting its back, seemingly preparing to take it home with us to eat. He appears to have cut his fingers. However, this is not the case, and he seems cheerful. We walk through a long but narrow park, adjacent to the road. It is late at night again. There are about five other people around (of questionable repute), and they are setting up an overnight camp in the closed park. They gather under a park shelter nearby. An unknown male in his forties, who may be lighting a cigarette, throws a lit match into the river close to where he is. As a result (and as I vaguely anticipate), the river’s surface somehow catches fire with a bright flash and tall flames, and they are startled but unharmed. Not wanting trouble from the park rangers, Zsuzsanna and our children, under my lead, turn to go back in the opposite direction with a steady gait, though not as if fleeing, but assertively. I am aware that there may be a game warden or two near the boat ramp directly opposite the entrance (where we first came in), but this is uncertain. Now we are going home. It seems to be around the same time as the previous scene. We reach the perimeter of a parking lot, about one-fifth the size of a city block, adjacent to the sidewalk. We may walk through it diagonally from here (off to its right) rather than go around at the intersection. However, the declivity might be too challenging for us to traverse, especially for Zsuzsanna to manage the pram. We walk through a high school instead. Even though it is late at night, students are walking on the grounds. (At least one is wearing an American football uniform.) We use the entrance and the exit but go back around and up to a fence that blocks our way. We walk around it and continue from here as I wake. Dream signature: Water induction, seeking correlation of dream state awareness (fishing), water lowering (melatonin mediation), vestibular system adaptation (walking near ravine), water reinduction (river), lit match and river on fire (precursory consciousness initiation; choice to “go home”; wake), liminal space entry (parking lot), vestibular system correlation (anticipation of walking through declivity; wariness of waking process as potential falling sensation), emerging thinking skills (going through high school), wall mediation (fence).
