I'm back and more ready for Lucid Dreaming than ever before! I had great night a couple nights ago. A couple of awesome dreams that helped re-establish my passion. I have been lucid dreaming regularly during my absence, but I haven't really been striving to become lucid. My basic ADA practices, which are pretty much embedded into my brain, have kept me lucid even though I haven't been really trying. However, I now plan on rocking ADA in its fullest starting this very moment. I may journal some of the dreams during my absence if they happen to cross my mind, but I'm definitely going to be journaling my dreams from this point on. All lucids and some of the more interesting non-lucids. With that, I'll leave you the dreams that brought me back to the wonderful world of Dreamviews!

Since I enjoy keeping track of numbers and stats (its an OCD thing ), I'm going to guesstimate and start these lucid dreams at #500. I was at #244 when I took my leave and I pretty much go lucid every other night or more at this point. I probably have more than 500, but its all good.

These are both pretty damn long and very vivid, so I remember them very well.

Lucid Dream 500: The Power of the King
Series: The End of Days, Episode 4
DILD
Technique: ADA



I'm walking through a city with my friend, Diddy. I felt like I knew where I was going at the time, but looking back, I'm not familiar with where I was or where I was going. I see an attractive female a few yards up ahead. In the "classic romance comedy" style, a mugger takes her purse and starts hauling ass right at us. The lady screams for help and I immediately perform a "chop block" on the mugger.
A chop block is a blocking technique used in american football. It consists of waiting until the defender is within arms reach and then di
ving hard toward their knees. If performed correctly, the blocker strikes the defender in the knee caps with their shoulder on a downward angle. This causes the defender to, literally, flip over the blocker, landing on the ground in a "disarmed" manner. Aka, it fucks them up.

I the man flipped over me, landed on his ass, and Diddy ripped the purse from his hands and proceeded to rough him up a bit. The man, scrambled to his feet and took off running away. We let the bastard go. The female approached me and I noticed she looked like she was in really good shape and seemed to walk with a certain swagger about her. She told me and Diddy that we passed a test and have been chosen by the government. I sensed that she was telling the truth, so we followed her at her request.

We soon arrived at a somewhat hidden staircase in an alley between two trashy/abandoned looking buildings. She escorted us through the doorway, and to my amazement, the inside was marvelous. We were in a small lobby with a clerk standing behind a white counter. The floor was white marble, the walls were white, but appeared to be painted with some sort of high class substance. They looked like mirrors, but there was no reflection of the room. They were only reflecting the color white (if that makes any sense). Hard to explain, but it was awesome to look at. At this point, I'm right on the cusp of lucidity. It "faded" in and out while I examined the wall, but it never set-in. Back to complete non-lucidity now.

The man at the counter was my friend, P. He looked excited and said, "Zack! You came here?" I had a brief chat with him, but can't remember the details. Without being told, I knew this place was a secret government facility that ran tests and performed surgical procedures to give their patients superhuman abilities. She led us into a fancy elevator and three men wearing black suits, black sunglasses, and hardened spiffy hair-dos, (aka Shiny Spiffers) joined us. Suddenly, I was horrified by this elevator. There were now thick spider webs on all sides of the elevator and many spiders crawling throughout the webs. Me, being deathly afraid of spiders, started freaking out. I stayed in the middle as it descended and tucked my arms close to my sides. I freaked out a bit when I brushed against a spider web and the woman told me that this was part of my test. She said the elevator will not stop until I can fully calm myself and accept my surroundings. I took a deep breath and the spider webs slowly began to vanish. I focus on the webs and imagine them vanishing. It worked wonders and BAM! I struck lucidity as I was performing this task.

I didn't even bother to stabilize because this dream was CRAZY vivid. The elevator stopped and I proceeded to follow the lady. I figured this plot was interesting enough, so I figured I'd follow it until it got boring. We walked down a hallway that reminded me of a hospital. People were wearing those hospital gowns and appeared to be performing physical therapy-type exercises. In truth, they were getting used to their new abilities. I saw a guy who could run incredibly fast and another who could stretch his body like rubber (or Luffy from One Piece). The woman hooked me up to a machine in a room at the end of the hall. Diddy entered a different room. She told me that the "higher-ups" had chosen me for a unique ability. My hand was placed in a machine as she explained that I was being given the "Power of the King." I immediately thought of "Geass," but I've had this power before in dreams and I wanted something else. I focused on the lady and willed her not to say that my power was "Geass." It worked.

She told me my power was to telepathically control metal, Aka Magneto, lol. First, though, I had to pass a test. This test cycled through my mind and could tell my history. She said, "As long as you aren't a normal person or have had an easy life, you will pass." Lol, no worries there. I pass both criteria with flying colors. I started playing around with the ability in that room. There was a clock with three "hands." I pointed my arm toward the clock (for focus assistance) and begin moving my fingers. I was able to control each "hand" of the clock using a separate finger. I was actually pretty amazed with the level of control I had over the "hands." I was moving each hand in the direction and speed that I wanted. I began stopping, changing directions, and changing speeds of each "hand" individually all in unison. I now noticed the lady looked horrified at my level of control. She said no one had ever grasped their ability this quickly. I could sense fear in her from my level of power. To my surprise, I really struggled to move anything that wasn't made of metal. In fact, I could really only get non-metal objects to quiver or move ever so slightly. I lost my lucidity at some point during this time.

The lady told me that they were keeping a device that monitored my ability and they could shut it down at any time. My first thought was, "Yeah, I'll be stealing that device." I then began to imagine the different ways I could use metal. I asked her to provide me with a large bag of metal in powder form. That way I could make any object movable. Beer Pong gave me this idea, lol. I imagined putting a little powder on the ball and making every shot as a result. Brandon entered the room and I told him my power and asked him what his power was. He acted strangely and said his power was top secret. He said he refused to ever tell me. I knew this was all a show and he was going to tell me as soon as we left. I found out that his power was directly linked to me and every other person with abilities. He had the ability to monitor my power, engage it, and shut it off at will. In fact, his ability trumped the device they kept in the lab. Not only could he do this to my ability, but to all people with abilities. I laughed after he told me. They had trusted one of my most faithful friends with this ability. I was 100% free from their control AND we could hunt down the rest of the people with abilities because he could monitor their usage. The world would soon be mine. We were planning the takeover amongst ourselves when my memory of the dream ends. I either lost the memory or woke up.

Lucid Dream 501: It has...BEGUN!!
Series: The End of Days, Episode 5
DILD
Technique: ADA



It was later that night when I had another dream. I was in a large warehouse with me Diddy, Mike, and Creed. There was some sort of faction holding up the warehouse and pointing guns at us. I made a smart-ass remark and one of the men put a gun to my head. He pulled the trigger and I felt the pressure pound the side of my head and I fell to the ground. He shot me over and over, about 10 times, as I laid there and timed my flinches with the gun blasts. I became lucid as I was getting shot on the ground.

I waited until he stopped shooting before acting. He turned to my friends and said, "Your level is pathetic. You thought you could take us on?" I jumped to my feet and threw out my hand. The guy froze and remembering elements from the dream earlier that night, I used the iron in his bones and blood to control his body. I raised him in the air and said, "You are very unlucky. Not only did you run into someone very powerful and not know it, but you actually ran into The King!" I twisted my hands and could hear all of his bones breaking within his body. He screamed, and fell completely limp before I tore his body apart with my mind/ability. The room was full of these men, aka Shiny Spiffers. It became a massacre as I proceeded to perform the same kill on them all. Bullets flew as Diddy, Mike, and Creed joined in on the battle. There were several civilians also in the warehouse and we finished off most of them as well. We can't have witnesses of course . A couple women were left and I raised them into the air. I said, "Congrats, you get to live. Never, speak of this incident or I WILL find you." I let them live as we exited the warehouse. I confirmed with Diddy that we had taken out the two warehouse workers with abilities when they noticed I was bleeding.

My face had a cut on it and was bleeding. Mike told me that they could find out I was there if they found my blood somewhere. I responded, "Then we torch the place." We entered the building again and we flew up to the balcony. I held out my hands and performed pyrokinesis. The building caught fire as I began to control the flames and made them dance around the warehouse. I hit some barrels and there was a large explosion. Suddenly, the warehouse doors busted open. A large black man wearing a preacher's outfit stormed in followed by a slew of Shiny Spiffers and one man who looked like a hobo/starving artist. I lost lucidity somewhere around here.

We immediately darted into a small room in the rafters. Diddy, Mike, and Creed were freaked out. Their eyes were solid black (like demons from the show Supernatural). They said, "The Reverend saw us!" I knew he hadn't saw me, which was the most important, so I told them we had to flee immediately. We flew in separate away from the warehouse. My dream now entered a strange sequence where I was flying around in a slow down like motion as music played in the background. It was soft atmospheric music and everywhere I flew, the hobo-looking guy was investigating. I did my best to avoid him, but he kept showing up everywhere I flew. he never spotted me. It was almost like a symbolic sequence within the dream. I was flying in a landscape that changed over and over, and he was popping out of nowhere in every direction. I decided to just land and casually walk by him, because he didn't know who I was. This worked perfectly. He smiled and nodded at me as I walked by and I did the same. I I knew he just looked at me as another random citizen walking by.

Later in the dream, I'm in a supermarket. I'm buying milk at a register that is in the back end of the store. Right next to the milk section. By protocol, the cashier had me stair into a camera and take a picture before purchasing the milk. I smiled in my picture.

At this point in the dream, its several months or maybe even years into the future from the earlier portion of my dream. The pictures were taken to identify demons. Their eyes showed up in the special film. A biblical type apocalypse was in full motion in this dream.

After the picture, I looked into the soul of the cashier. He was a despicable low-level demon. I was able to manipulate his perception and he began freaking out. He pulled out a shotgun and began blasting everyone around the area. I walked away laughing at the mayhem when I noticed the hobo-guy from before rounding the corner. I immediately turned into acting-mode. I acted as if I was fleeing in panic. The hobo-guy shouted as he ran passed me, "Hurry up and get out of here!! I'm an exorcist, I'll take care of it." I immediately knew that this man was the most famous and most powerful of all exorcists. I hustled out of the store. Outside, I acted like a normal concerned citizen and a lady spoke to me. She said, "You have something about you. I'm not quite sure, but I haven't noticed such a beautiful person before. You are just like those two I met at the bar last night. Their names were Diddy and Mike. Do you know them?" I told her I didn't and took my leave thinking, "Out of hiding already? Stupid move..."

Next thing I remember, I'm at a huge party/club. Its in a real nice, futuristic type building. Its a demon club (I've been watching a lot of Supernatural lately, if you haven't noticed already, lol), so the people there are mostly demons or those who associate with demons. Less than half are unsuspecting humans. I meet up with Diddy and Mike there. I also run into several of my other "friends" who are all actually demons. We are talking in a glass hallway in the back of the club when we see (through the glass) the police pull up outside the club. Suddenly, the doors lock all around us. My other "friends" have locked me, Diddy, and Mike in the hallway. It was a set-up. They had made a deal with the cops to hand over Me, Diddy, and Mike to the cops and exorcists. I regain my lucidity at this point.

I grab the nearest door handle and began a fake panic on it. I secretly use my abilities to unlock the door and exclaim, "Wow, I'm lucky the door lock is broke!" I then grab one of my "friends" by the chest and slam him against the wall. I focus on his mind and change his perception of my eyes. He now sees that my eyes are black (even though they actually aren't). He says, "Please, we had to. They have a demon that has changed sides and is working for the exorcists." I let them live because we had no time to deal with them. I knew I had to get Diddy and Mike out of there quickly, so I turned the glass into liquid for a moment as they flew out. I then changed it back to glass and entered the main area of the club.

I was curious to see what was happening so I submitted to the police. They had us all sitting on the floor and lined us up. The hobo-guy exorcist went down the line, checking for demons. I was first in line. He looked at me and I immediately knew he remembered me from the street and market before. He checked my eyes with his exorcist abilities and, of course, I passed. The guy next to me had been talking to me when we were first lining up. He told me that they didn't have any high level exorcists, so we could hide easily. I knew, however, that the hobo-man was the highest of the high levels, but had been "in the shadows" his whole career. This was how I continued to set-up the dream plot in my head. The hobo-man performed a pretty brutal looking exorcism on the guy beside me after easily detecting he was a demon. He proceeded to wipe out half the line. Some ran, but were killed immediately.

I was scanning the policemans minds carefully as to not to draw attention from the hobo-man. I was searching for the demon in disguise and I found her. I made a point to finish her off after she left the building, but the hobo man had a similar plan. He darted toward her after finishing the line in an attempt to finish her off. She used her demon powers to throw an officer in front of her as a shield and she took off toward the door. From that power display, she seemed to be a pretty high-level. She rampaged toward the door, killing many citizens as she exited. I took off after her, as did the hobo exorcist. I wanted to finish her, but knew I couldn't with the hobo man in sight. Suddenly, Mike, Diddy, and the two animal shelter stoners from the show Parks and Recreation, pulled up in a SUV. I faced the direction of the demon chick and telepathically grabbed her attention. She turned in my direction and I gave her a death stare. She looked scared as I jumped in the SUV and we drove off.


Now having lost lucidity again, I talked to Diddy and Mike about what happened. I said, "They actually tried to set us up. They think I'm just a low level demon. They would shit their pants if they actually knew." We laughed and Mike said, "Well, you can't blame them for not knowing really. The only ones who know the truth are those you WANT to know the truth." We talked a bit more about our next course of action, but I can't remember the specifics now. I woke up shortly after.

This is one of my
Five-Star Lucids

Type: DILD.
Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Notes:
I remembered two dreams last night, one of which is this entry. (I'll finish typing up the other one in the morning.) This dream was another cool lucid, if not a low-level one. I did some more stabilization, including looking closely at an incredibly detailed flower, and I teleported to an airport reminiscent of the brief shot from Fight Club where the narrator runs up to a window. I kinda lost my lucidity, and the dream, after that though. It was still worth it.

I started out in my bedroom. There was just a slight amount of moonlight coming in through the window blinds, but other than that, it was very dark - so dark, in fact, that as I was walking around, I had my hands out in front of me. I could barely see the outlines of objects in my room! According to the preexisting plot of this dream, I had just finished a WILD attempt, and I had entered this dream moments earlier. I was 'lucid' - but not actually. I was only pretending to be lucid as part of the dream plot, when in reality I wasn't lucid at all. I remember being slightly nervous because the area was so dark, and I wanted to get out as soon as I could. I was initially standing near the foot of my bed, but then I started following an invisible ball of energy, which was floating not two feet in front of me, at around shoulder level. It gave off a distinguishable presence, even though I couldn't see it, and I knew that this ball of energy was KingYoshi. He had been waiting for me to enter the dream, and was now going to show me where to go (what...?!). It started moving towards the window, and I slowly walked after it.

I arrived at the window and forgot all about the "KingYoshi" ball. When I walked up to the window, the lighting coming through the blinds became a bit brighter and more aqua in color, as if an alien spaceship had just come down and hovered in front of it. I grabbed the right side of the blinds, bunching a few of them up with my hand and pulling them down with a slight amount of effort. I sensed there was a dark hand above the blinds, trying to prevent me from pulling them down and onto the floor. Anyways, I was now looking out a window without the actual windowpane in place; it was just an open area now. I don't know if there was a windowpane to begin with, but did it matter?

I looked out the window and down towards the ground (my room is on the second floor of the house) and I saw the front driveway of my house. This was a little 'off', because the window to my bedroom in real life is looking out over the backyard, not the front area of the house. But this didn't matter. In real life, the driveway of my house is a big square area that consists of many neatly-arranged, reddish stones with a connecting driveway to the street. It was the same in the dream, except instead of there being a 2-lane residential road, there was a pressed gravel road. On the other side of this road, instead of houses, there were lots of pine trees. There was also a large pine tree on the right side of the driveway, right next to some smaller shrubs and greenery.

Back to myself, I was still in the house, overlooking this area. Like in my previous recorded dream, I made a lazy jump out the window. However, even though the distance from my second-story bedroom to the ground seemed pretty far from the window, as I jumped, the distance seamlessly became next to nothing. There was next to no impact when I landed. I only recoiled slightly, which wasn't very noticeable. The atmosphere and time of day was still nighttime, but it was more well-lit outside because of the moon (which I knew was out, even though I didn't actually see it in the sky). I started to walk down the driveway, away from the house, and I became lucid once I got about halfway there. I did the nose-plug RC, and I could breathe, so I knew I was dreaming. I rubbed my hands together and looked at them, counting five fingers on each hand. If something was weird about them, I never noticed.

I continued walking down the driveway and, since I was only semi-lucid, I didn't think of teleporting at the moment. Instead, I involuntarily decided to turn right down the gravel road and walk in the moonlight. Right before I turned the corner, I saw a few green dandelion weeds (minus the yellow dandelion part) at the foot of the large pine tree next to the driveway. These weeds were accompanied by a few white daisies, and a small clump of lilacs. The flowers all looked normal; realistic - the daisies had white petals with a yellow center, and the lilacs were lavender in color, just like they are in real life. I knelt down and smelled the air around the flowers, and I could actually pick up the scent of lilacs! It was awesome!

I turned my attention towards the daisies. I picked one up; it didn't put up a fight and resist being pulled up from the soil at all, as if it was just floating in air. As I brought it towards my face and looked at it closely, I realized that the white petals now had a huge amount of tiny, pint-sized holes in them; these holes were more abundant towards the outer regions of the petal, and a few of these petals looked like they were eaten a bit around the edges. I saw the slight bending of the petals as they connected to the center, which now looked like the middle of a sunflower with all the seeds, except this was a solid yellow. The amount of detail was stunning; I'd never seen details as crystal clear and sharp before, regardless of the fact that I was only semi-lucid. The flower was so sharp, in fact, one could easily have thought there was aliasing around the edges. My gaze was fixed on this flower for a good minute or so, just observing all the details.

"Wow, this is amazing!" I gasped sometime during the observation, completely astonished.

I could make this entry a five-star one just from that moment alone.

After I finished looking at the flower, I got up onto my feet again and dropped it to the ground. Then I continued walking down the gravel road, surrounded on both sides by large, dense pine trees. I observed that the trees on the right side of the road were a bit thinner and shorter than the ones on the left, looking back and forth a few times and chuckling because of that strange layout. After two or three minutes of just walking along, I got to a clearing. It was like one of those half-circle campsites you see along the side of the road, except at least five times the size, and there was one of these on both sides of the gravel road. The ground was all gravel now, with the exception of the grassy terrain that started on the edges of these 'campsites', where the pine trees were clustered, bordering the area. The place made a big circular clearing that must have been a good two hundred feet wide and long.

On either sides of the circle were some pretty strange setups, though. On the right side of the clearing, there were two thicker, square glass panels that were propped up on their sides, about thirty feet from one another. They were at a good ten feet high and wide. On top of them, going from one panel to the other, was a longer glass panel of the same thickness. In between the two square glass pieces, and sheltered by the long one on top, was a big bed. It looked like something from a game; the bed was very smooth (like plastic) and basically consisted of a solid, wood-colored rectangle with another, pale red-purple rectangle with smoothed edges on top and coming over the sides like a bedsheet. I saw a low headboard made from the same wood-colored piece as the rest of the bed. There was a white rectangle, again with smoothed edges, for a pillow on top of the covers near the end.

I was losing my lucidity; by now I was probably only at a 3/10, but I kept going in regards to dream control. I turned to the left and saw a small, beaten-up wooden house. I walked over to it and opened the door, entering into a bedroom. This bedroom was about 15x15 feet with smooth, medium-tone hardwood floors, beige wallpaper, and brown wooden paneling along the floor (I'm tired; I can't remember what it's called at the moment). There was a closet in the middle of one wall; it took up a good chunk of the wallspace and was made of two smooth, sliding wooden doors with no handles. I went over to this closet, dug my nails into the wood of the left door, and pulled it over to the right, expecting an airport terminal to be on the other side. I needed there to be a large glass window and viewing area - I'm surprised I managed to teleport like this, let alone to the proper area, with such a low level of lucidity. The door opened to practically an exact replica of the airport briefly seen in Fight Club, near the end of the film. It's that place the narrator is in when he's got himself smushed against the window, frantically looking outside. I could see down the terminal and saw a regular seating area, but the place was all empty. There were no people whatsoever.

I'd completely lost my lucidity at that point, and the dream not ten seconds later.

Welcome to my world. Here you will read things that will make you smile, laugh, cringe, fist pump the air, ask yourself what the fuck you just read, and generally leave you wondering how this could come out of a sane person's mind , lol. I have had a lot of experience with lucid dreaming and have made my way back to the site after a 8 month hiatus. Check out my signature for all my old journal entries. I will start out by transporting many of them here (the significant ones & my favorites). Hope I can entertain you all as you take a trip into my mind. Peace! Stay High!

Lucid Dream 1: The Master of Dreams
around 3:00am
DILD

Category - Exploration

For some reason I was having false awakenings all night. With each false awakening I forgot the previous dream, but then it finally happened. The first part of the dream I remember is that I was a video game designer and I was creating a role playing game (RPG). After a few short moments the scene changed and I was in a Hotel at the beach with a couple of friends.

I noticed the hotel was the one from my game and I knew I could alter the elements around me (I'm not Lucid yet, but close) I pulled out a palm pilot and began placing monster in the hotel. I set up 2 poisonous plants in the lobby, but I didn't tell my friends what I was doing I just told them to run as the plants grew out of the floor. As we were running I used a palm pilot to create Skeletons with pirate swords chasing after us. We ran outside and down to the beach, where I stopped and said to myself, "I wonder if I can control them and make them play a game of touch football with us." (I'm still not Lucid. I didn't think I was dreaming I just thought the palm pilot controlled the skeletons). So we began all playing touch football.

I can't remember many details of the game, but I know my team won and we were celebrating, when it happened! I jumped in the air to celebrate and performed a back flip. After landing I thought, "Wait a minute. I can't do a backflip!" So I tried it again, but with no success. I then attempted to fly. I tried to hover but it didn't work. I even tried the invisible ladder technique, but it didn't work either. I was about to lose hope when I remembered I had just played a game of football with skeletons.

I was Lucid. I wasn't sure what to do so I ran at superhuman speed up the road. I badly wanted to run up a mountain and jump off like I had read about on this site, but for some reason I couldn't get enough speed to do it. Instead I decided to run into a nearby house. It was like 4:00am dreamtime and everyone in the house was asleep. I thought about waking them up and scaring them, but I decided not to. I paused and tried to think of what to do when I came up with an awsome idea. I wanted to fly to Japan and compete in ninja warrior. I had to get out of that house first though. I was looking for a way out when I started to feel like I was about to wake up, so I started spinning in circles and to my astonishment IT WORKED!!! I just sat there for a while in amazement that I could remember things from the real world here in the dream world. After running through the house for a bit, I saw that every window was a stained glass with paintings of angels on them. I must have lost some Lucidty as I started to worry if I could even get out of the house, then I remembered I was dreaming so I just jumped into them and they popped out completely intact. It made a loud noise and it woke up the residents. I hid on the roof and watched as they walked outside. I saw a large shadow come up behind them and then out of the shadow came a large three headed dog and a man who resembled Merlin. The great beast walked toward the three people. Each head devoured a person and Merlin raised his staff and summoned me towards him. I couldn't control my body it just floated toward him. After landing I attempted to fight him, but as i swung my fist, he punched my fist with his fist and caused me to collapse. I thought he was gonna kill me but instead he told me to follow him. While following him, he explained the world of Lucid dreams and told me I would soon use dreams as my playground. I came to the realization that this guy is the most powerful Lucid Dreamer alive, He was the master of dreams. (Anyone else have a character in their dreams who is all powerful? I found this to be weird in my dream. I suppose I just lost some Lucidity)

He took me to a cook-out of all places. It was a cookout for Lucid Dreamers in a clearing, with a pond, surrounded by woods. I saw a guy hovering around and I asked him why I couldn't fly. He said "You can't fly yet? You must be new." We talked for a while, but I can't remember what we said. He then told me to focus on a branch that was hanging over the water and pull myself to it with my mind. It worked the first time. So I kept doing it. My accuracy wasn't very good though I kept missing the branches and falling into the pond lol. I had trouble with long distances as well. I came to the conclusion that flying is hard, so I decided to ask Merlin to teach me. When I began to wake up. I tried to hold on, but I was so excited to write this in a journal that I kind of just let myself wake up. I'm so excited this worked and even though I couldn't fly yet I plan on mastering that tonight or whenever I have my next Lucid dream.
