    1. up from the depths

      by , 01-10-2012 at 01:46 PM
      Good morning, everybody.

      Dream #1

      A voice saying, "Up from the depths." A view of a woman in some kind of white robes and head covering, carrying something and walking up a dark stairwell, up toward a lit doorway.
    2. Mind-Controlling Man

      by , 10-06-2011 at 08:39 AM
      I was in a dark room where people where being brainwashed into doing bad things. Me and my friend managed to escape and he dissapeared from the dream for a while.

      I was captured and was then taken back to the room, to be brainwashed. I resisted for as long as I could but in the end it got me. Basically there's a light that shines down from somewhere and a woman's voice says stuff. I left and bumped into someone, then I became semi-lucid, I started to fly around like Movie Ironman as thats the only way I can fly.

      Then I was chased by that man all around my area to the park.

    3. Omnio

      by , 09-20-2011 at 08:15 PM (Oneiric Mirror)
      I dreamed with Omnio. We were walking in the middle of a road at night in the woods.
      Above us and projected on the ground was a yellow light that came from the street lamps.
      We reached a place where there were large marble stairs. We climbed the stairs, and when we reach the end, it was day.
      At the end of the stairs was a computer store. We entered and I asked for information about two ram chips for my computer. The woman said that she had to order the chips. Omnio gave me two ships of ram and said he wanted to buy new ones. I handed the ships he gave me to the lady of the shop, and she said, "That´s sooo old"

    4. Train Climbing and A Station of Light

      by , 09-12-2011 at 09:38 PM (The Imaginarium)
      I’m on a train, but it’s the outside of a freight train. Either I had this dream another night, or I had it earlier this night. There were others with me on the outside, incl. (I think) Homer and Marge Simpson. We’re just powering through country in a wide, gravelled, multi-track rail path. At one point, Homer jumps off and into a bin (green recycle, and the lid closes on him). I tell Marge to do the same.
      I make my way along the train to the front – the engine seemed to be at the back. I don’t remember feeling wind, or fear for that matter. As I get there, someone cries “look out” and a brace myself for another tunnel (from earlier in the dream?). Actually it’s a very small looking station, and we stop at it. I remember seeing the orange, hanging board (what for?) past the traffic lights and trying not to hit it when we stop.



      As I get off the train, I fall and get entwined with a black/yellow striped pole. I don’t know where it came from or what it was for. Someone I knew helped me out of it. As I was leaving the platform, I saw an old friend cross in front of the entrance in official rail uniform. I saw another old friend and female looking down the tunnel so I veered off right. Ticket office? I may have asked where the toilet was, then went to the right passageway, maybe to the toilet. I came back and Lily (from HIMYM) was at another counter sorting out ‘papers’ for this other girl e.g. Passport, driver’s license, ID. I went somewhere and come out on the roof where she was standing, facing away from me.



      She was maybe wearing a fishing hat and some form of baggy dark trousers. Over them she had some sort of green and yellow baggy short shorts and her top was possibly one of those tank tops with straps. The view looked Tuscan, or Renaissance, partly reminiscent of Dubrovnik, but with towers and such. She turned round and maybe smiled at me. Not sure when, but probably at office with Lily: There was a flash when I said something about her dancing. It was all blue and monochrome – high angle, tight cropping – she may have been wearing aviators, and she was dancing. Then cut back to the rest of the dream, whatever it was.
    5. A Secret

      by , 09-09-2011 at 01:11 AM
      I was in a room which looked like a big warehouse. It was extremely bland. The walls were a light grey, as was the floor. From what I remember, the ceiling was very high. It was very well lit - almost too bright for such a room. With me in this room were my parents and my partner. There were others but I can't tell who they were. My partner and I were sat on the bare floor whereas everyone else was stood up around the space of the room - some in groups and others alone. My parents were stood together.

      My partner and I were smoking. I figured after all this time, my parents have already begun to realise that I smoked so I went ahead and carried on smoking my cigarette.

      in real life, my partner and I have been smoking a lot recently and I don't really want my parents to find this out
    6. Camping

      by , 09-07-2011 at 06:06 PM
      Myself and a bunch of my friends were in a field. It was a bright day and we had set up tents for the evening. One of my friends, Fred, had found out that someone had broken his glasses. He had picked them up and the arms had fallen off them.
    7. Message in Dream: You are a worthless human grave

      by , 08-31-2011 at 02:28 PM
      Right, so I remember several dreams nearly every night, and they are always fairly involved, a lot of imagery and breaking down the happenings of the day. A lot of them have concerned me, and of course I take them all seriously, but I don't want everyone I know to have to hear about another, so here is a nightmare of sorts that I had.
      (before sleeping i was insistent on keeping the kitchen light on in the apartment I live in, and slept on the sofa which is close to the kitchen light)
      The Dream:
      In my dream, I was in my old house which was recently sold. I lived there with my mother and father before their divorce, it was a very nice place, but sold as a result of the divorce. So a lot of karma and whatnot is related to it, plus, it is my quintessential home place.
      I was in my parents' bedroom, but i was on a futon with a white down comforter and sleeping with a fluffy cat that would fuss in the covers. I fell asleep, with this really bright light on to keep safe. But I woke up when this uber bright incandescent yellow tinted orb (golf ball sized) when into me, under my skin, and started speaking to me creepily, but it was mostly the sensation I felt which was like it was a dark message, a dark bulb/light, and it really disturbed the muscles in my side where it was lodged.
      I got up, and by the front door was my friend/ex-friend who was sleeping on the ground, and I lifted up my shirt from the area on my right abdomen where this orb thing was, (I felt like a message was carved) and he said something along the lines of "you should look at this in the mirror" and then my dad was there and he looked at it too and said "you should really take a look at this, it says ''you are (nothing more than) a worthless human grave" or something like that.
      (Then I woke up, turned off the kitchen light because it was a lot like light in my dream, went back to bed)
      Now in my next dream I was at the house my mother now lives/works at, sleeping on her couch (maybe parallel to fact I was sleeping on apartment couch) and it was dark, but not scary. Then, I got a picture text on my clunky cell phone of some (plastic/decorative/holiday) of some skulls from my old sold house, as if to reiterate the message of dying/grave/whatever.

      I also half remember seeing these two little girls that I know in real life, who have huge eyes, they have showed up in my dreams sometimes. I used to be/am still timid of them. they were in the kitchen in my mom's current residence

      My thoughts/information to reader: I have had a lot that I'm keeping secret lately, and had some bad eating habits and have just checked out socially. I've also been paranoid about my ears and neck. I've been feeling very emotionally dead in terms of happy feelings.
      I would like some help. What in the fuck could this mean? I think it has to do with me going uphill from my downhill lifestyle lately, or maybe I am just going down some more. (I've had full blown precognitive dreams before, or just intuitive/informational ones about people and places and what they are related to me. So maybe I am going to through something tough? Or through rebirth? or should i be concerned?)

      thank you
    8. Sing Dirty Nina

      by , 08-12-2011 at 02:27 AM
      I enter a lucid dream and I'm flying through darkness. I am determined to have an enjoyable experience so as I fly around I begin trying verbal commands like, "sun come up" or "daylight now". But none of them work, so I starting singing. I make up a cute little song and add in phrases involving sunrises and with feeling I sing, "let the sun come up". I'm basically just using verbal phrases in song form. My subconscious likes it. Perhaps he is grateful for my creative attempt, and the fact that I am asking, instead of forcing. Forcing never works with the sub.

      Now I'm flying in bright daylight over an icy ocean of arctic blue glacial waters. I change the song and start singing about warm Caribbean waters, and suddenly the glacier breaks apart and the sea froths and foams and dark debris flies everywhere. This was a scene from some horrible flood. But it was only a changeover. After a few seconds pass, the water is turquoise like the Caribbean and there are beaches formed from the glacial ice. It is so beautiful and amazing just flying through this scene and watching these transitions occur as I sing. My subconscious seems ready to give me anything I ask for. I sing for a beautiful lagoon, and immediately I watch as the sandstone is carved from a cliffside, the debris shooting straight into the air and into nonexistence. The water surges up and over the cliff, and when it recedes there is a beautiful lagoon with waterfalls flowing into it. Plants, trees, and flowers spring up around it. I just float in the air, and watch this amazing site, ready to plunge into the warm waters. But my alarm wakes me up. Snooze.

      I re-enter a lucid dream, but it's different. I'm in some sort of mall, but this mall has the most beautiful interior decorating I've ever seen. Each store has displays set up that are so intricately beautiful. They use color and light to make the customer's eye dance around the store. I had barely a moment to state in awe at this scene, when...again alarm goes off...snooze.

      I wanted so badly to get back to that store in the mall to take a mental picture of the gorgeous display, but instead I'm in a different place. Or a different time. It's a mall...but there's only western stuff...and it looks like the old west. I'm dressed up as a cowboy, my hair is hidden and tucked up under my hat. The people tending the store in this mall don't look too pleased to see me so I say, "I'll see you boys later," then I make a bull sound, and go charging off toward a wooden wall, head first. Apparently I don't make a very good bull, because I just hit the wall hard and fall to the ground.

      My head is aching but I'm alright, I'm more bothered that my boots got all dusty, so I wipe 'em off a bit. Two large men walk over to me, I see they're carrying rifles. The light is behind them so their faces are in shadow but I can see one has long greasy hair and the other is bald. "Howdy," I say, "I'm Dirty Nina." and I take off my hat and let my hair fall down. "You boys are mighty good looking," I say, trying to hide the sarcasm. The bald man walks closer and leans toward me. I can see that he has bandages over his eyes and he's looking really angry..."Well that's just fine little missy, but we got a debt to settle." He smiles, and I see a nasty toothless grin. The dust begins to settle and I need a plan, I see the spurs on my boots glinting out of the corner of my eye...but just then...my alarm goes off. And I have to get up or I'll be late for work.

      Very frustrating, this dream was going to be mighty awesome.
    9. Jellyfish Fireworks and Tentacles

      by , 07-14-2011 at 12:10 AM
      Type: Regular dream.
      Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
      Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

      It was nighttime and I was inside my house. More specifically, I was in the living room. Our living room is fairly spacious, being about 30x20 feet, and this held true in the dream. I was only looking at one specific part in the living room, but I could sense the airy space around me. One of the longer walls (this room was rectangular) had the front door to our house in it, near the end of the wall. On the short wall adjacent to this one, was a beige loveseat and a burgundy, modern-looking leather chair. There was a maroon rug with tan accents that would change to gold if light shone on them in the middle of the room, taking up a good quarter of the space, and on the same wall as the door, in the middle, was a fireplace consisting of tan bricks. The opening was lined with silver. In between the fireplace and the door, but closer to the fireplace, was a tall window.

      The room was not lit very well. However, some pale (almost bordering on sickly) darker yellow light was coming in from the window, landing on the edge of the carpet and a bit of the fireplace. The rest of the room was very, very dark though. To add to the surreality of the room, there was no actual floor! The bottom of the fireplace and walls faded out into a blurry black abyss below, where you couldn't see anything but black. I was floating in a cross-legged sitting position (along with the rug, which was also floating) in front of the fireplace.

      I was floating there for a few seconds, and then my sister walked up behind me, also suspended like I was. I looked to the side a bit and saw her sit down. In her arms, she was carrying a normal cardboard box. She tilted it out of her grip and let it fall down into the blackness. Right after it disappeared, a few packages of unlit fireworks came floating up and stopped right at floor level, as if they'd hit an invisible barrier beneath us. They just floated there, not moving at all. One package was shaped like a circular balloon weight with shiny purple foil around it, and another was a simple cylindrical shape that was aqua blue in colour. It was very close to the size of one of those mega-sized Smarties or Mentos tubes.

      I took the aqua cylinder and it resisted my grasp a bit, not wanting to move, but I still got it rather easily. I then squeezed it right in the middle and it crumpled in this area, almost like one of the twists on a New Years cracker. The cylinder then (forcefully) flew out of my hand, and stopped three or four feet in front of me, not going higher into the air but just staying near 'ground' level. It let out a small explosion that was self-contained, not coming out more than a foot. The light created by it was light was dim, not bright, even during the initial explosion. It blew out into a sphere of dim sparks and light, then flew off on an arc, the remaining particles spreading out and dissipating.

      The firecracker shaped like the shiny purple balloon weight had vanished, and I couldn't see it anywhere once the first firework had gone away. My dream self thought this was normal, and I was expecting another firework to go off in a minute.

      Not five seconds later, another firework went off. First it created a small, bright white light where the last one went off, and then blew up outwards, changing from white to a thin, transparent purple and blue bag-like blob, exactly like a jellyfish! The shape was smooth and circular, slightly flattened out like a normal jellyfish, and even cooler was that it had very thin, tapering pale purple tentacles that were almost glowing with a dim pink light.

      My sister passively warned me to "stay back". Still in a cross-legged position, I shambled backwards a few inches without getting up. Then, I saw a bunch of the same type of tentacles appear around me, as if I was a jellyfish. It was an effect of the firework; I looked at my sister and she too had a radius of tentacles coming out from around her, fading to nothing as they got to her midsection. I remember being fascinated by this, and then I woke up.

    10. Vivid and semi-lucid dreams. My attempt to dream share.

      by , 06-28-2011 at 04:28 PM
      So last night was one of the first nights a few of us decided to try and dream share. The goal was to meet at the top of The Empire State Building in NY and set of a beacon of light so others who were looking to do the same thing might be able to meet with another dreamer.
      To prepare for the night I did some light meditation and mantra to focus on completing the main task at hand. I also watched youtube videos of the Empire State Building as well as NY at night in order to gain detail about the surroundings themselves.

      Well last night I attempted such a task and here are my dream results.

      My first dream (or the one I could remember) happened between the hours of 12am to about 4:53am EST. The setting was not NY however but a sort of bayou (sp?) that you would expect to find maybe down south in Louisiana. I did not achieve any sort of lucidity in this dream but it was quite vivid. I was at this particular location because I was supposed to get an interview for a local newspaper. I was supposed to interview the owner of this sort of mansion style home that was located right on top of a swamp. The setting for this dream was at night, and I remember hearing crickets surrounding the area. The trouble was that a tornado (I know, weird in the south right?) was predicted to just tear right through this home. I was also with another woman, maybe my partner on this particular article. She was taller than me, maybe about 5'8" and had curly brown hair and glasses. We were afraid for our lives because of the more dangerous weather but the owner of the home did not seem as concerned, as if he dealt with this sort of thing on a daily basis. The winds started to pick up, and that is when I awoke to reality.

      I immediately wrote down in my dream journal, not really a summary but key words as it was dark and I did not want to forget anything. I got a glass of orange juice, knowing that it may help with my recall. I remember that people who had successfully achieved a WILD would wake up in the middle of the night and try to jump back into a lucid dream, I figured now would be as good a time as ever to try it. (Personally I am a light sleeper so getting up even the slightest amount keeps me up a while) So, after returning to bed just 5 min after I originally awoke I found it hard to get back to sleep and it took me about an hour to finally fall back to sleep. (which was not easy because at this time bird were beginning to sing).

      My second dream was about the same as far as vividness but I believe I might have been semi lucid....I remember actually being inside the Empire State Building. I had made it to the target destination. I had gone to the top to find dozens of people up there. It was night and it seemed like the reason that they were up there was because of some sort of death match between two human opponents. They were fighting on platforms that were suspended in mid air just beyond the ledge of the building. (I assume the loser of the match would fall to his death). I remembered that I needed to create a beacon of some sort but I couldn't remember why I needed it. Basically I did not achieve enough lucidity to actually dream share. I manifested the yellow light and pushed it up in the air, I also made the beacon kind of pulsate light. The beacon was set and I was at the top of the building, but as I said I couldn't remember where to go from there. That didn't matter anyways because as soon as I set the beacon the dozens of DC on the roof all went completely ape shit and began to fight and gang up on one another intent on killing each other. I helped those that were about to get beat or tortured. It seemed like the people doing the beating were intent on cutting their prey with box cutters and razor blades. The ones I saved I made sure got to the elevator ok. Then I remember reloading the box cutters with new blades and saying to the attackers. "If anyone attacks me I cut your throat, got it?" Needless to say the DC stayed away from me. Then I saw my ex inside the building. I was concerned for her safety so I tried to follow her and get her out of the building. Then my dream kind of shifted to me going after my ex and the people with her in my dad's mini van. I had finally caught up with them and come to find out that the girl I thought was my ex was really just a disguise, a ruse to get me out of the building. Unfortunately I was unable to get back to the building because I soon woke up after my discovery.

      So like I said, not really lucid but I think its great progress seeing as I actually got to the location and was able to manifest the beacon. My hopes for tonight is that I will become lucid and clear the roof of the building of any pesky DC and just wait to see if I make contact with another dreamer.

      I took the kids to school and decided to try the Drop and roll technique or whatever its called lol

      I'm in a house, there is a Jamaican lad there, i am waiting with my eldest daughter for my hubby to come home, he came home at one point but then he went again , i ask her where he went and she says she doesn't know, anyway another man comes in , he has a dark complection and long blonde hair, i look at him and for a minute i think he is my hubby, i say "what you done to your hair" ((didn't even mention his skin colour had changed)) he says "its always been like it" then i realise he's not my hubby!! This man was like a king or something in Jamaica and he was throwing a party, i went to the door and lots of people all came into the house, i say "look there all coming to see you" they go outside and i follow them, there is lots of food on tables, i look and see small pieces of bread and can see ham on it i'm hungry and take some and eat it, it was nice, i said "heres some ham ones" i look at the others, its like cracker stuff with black stuff on it, maybe fish or something and something else mixed with it, i try some and it tastes bloody awfull. I go back inside and i say to my eldest "there is a party outside you coming" she says "it's not our party were not allowed" I take a gulp of horror and feel bad and sit down. The king bloke stands infront of me and says something, i chuckle at him as he is funny and say something back, a woman by him says to another woman "fancy talking like that to someone as important as him" by this time he is now bald, i look and think "knackers to ya" he walks past and sings and i chuckle again, i get the feeling he likes me and doesnt mind how i speak as he himself is down to earth. We are now in the garden and i see some dogs, a large white one, a large blacky-brown one, and 5 small white puppies, i walk to them and try and stroke a pup but the brownish one , the male, snarls at me and bites my hand, it didn't hurt but scared me. I back off and he keeps snarling so i move away.
      ((DREAM SKIP))
      I am in bed, my eldest is trying to wake me up and suddenly i see her under the duvet with me i jump and say "what you doing here" quite amazed she got in without me knowing, she giggled and says "i don't know" ((DREAM SKIP))
      I am back in the house and there are some more puppies, they are black and i pick them up and hold them, i feel very safe with them, they are very loving and enjoy the attention, the big black one comes along ((the mother i suppose)) reminds me of my Ellie ((our dog that died a few weeks ago)) she cuddles me and she feels just like her and i give her a big cuddle and stroke her and give her pups back to her. ((DREAM SKIP))
      I'm lying in my bed and have my eyes closed, i could hear crunching noises mixed with some other odd noises and i thought i was still awake trying to get into SP, ((not sure if i actually woke for a few seconds or was still in a dream)) i felt a spinning sensation and twisting, i then remember what i have read on DV about rolling out of your body into your dream body, or rock forward and backward, not to physically do it but imagine yourself doing it ((only read about that last night)) anyway, i imagine rocking back and fourth, i could hear real crunching noises as i tried, very odd noise, i then stop, open my eyes and sit up, I hold my nose and try to breathe and TADAHHHH!!! I can breath, it is the weirdest feeling ever. I can hear like pots etc. claniging about downstairs ((i now feel my body in bed and quickly divert my mind onto my dream so i don't get pulled out..very odd feeling lol)) I get up and make my way down, i pass my daughters room, i see a small purple coat hanging from a blind in her doorway, i touch it as I pass, i can really feel the material. I turn and make my way down the stairs , i look down and can see beautiful crafted wooden frames at the bottom, they are all around the ceiling area, like small wooden windows, the detail is amazing i can also see the sun rays through the glass making it shine.. I remember thinking "maybe this is what it will look like in years to come" I carry on down and get to the bottom, I look around, it is alot bigger than my house, not like it atall. I need the loo so i make my way to look for the toilet, my eldest came out of a room to my right , it looked to me like the kitchen area, she looked at me and begins to yell out "ohh my god, its my cousin" i giggled inside and thought "yeah, sure i'll go along with being your cousin" I really did think this was soo funny. she hugs me and i say "look i need a wee" she looks at me with a serious face and says " you can't go" i then think to myeslf "shit to what you say, its my dream and i'll go where i like" I look at her and say "ahh, thats ok, i'll just fly up into the sky and take a piss there, no one will know" She opens the door and i walk outside. It's night time, and it's raining, i look up to the dark sky and put my arms up like superman and push myself off the ground, up i go, it's amazing, i had my wee and chuckled to myself about it I then land on a path, i look to my right and see 2 ponies, a white one and a brown one, one was a little bigger than the other ((these were in a few dreams i have had now and have spoken to me before)) they were standing on a corner just watching. I look up again and see lights, big blue ones hanging from a piece of wire, i decide to take a swing on one, i fly up to it a little and hop on..i begin to swing and get aroused from the feeling of it between my legs, i thought "i'mnot waisting my lucid having an orgasm" so i jump off and land on the ground. I decide to take a walk, i'm a little chilly and wet from the rain but i don't care ((never thought to change the scene..dohhhh!)) I decide to fly again but this time don't get very far, it is like a crash landing!!! lol, I decide to keep to my legs for now. I'm walking along a wide path and pass a few houses, the dream is very clear but for the hell of it i rub my hands together and call out "CLARITY NOW" The dream stays as it is but my voice is echoing, i don't like it and don't know how to stop it so i randomly call out "STOP ECHOING NOW" lmao then i say "echo" and it is still echoing, i then was back in bed, i can hear the crunching noises again and feel the spinning sensation, i concentrate on it but it goes then i wake up. Not sure if this was a WILD or a DILD anyone????
    12. Clown and Tanks

      by , 06-18-2011 at 05:32 PM (The Dream Magic Experiment)
      I recall seeing a clown with us, while I was with friends, in a gazebo or "umbrella" area, which is dark like night, but I can see with some white light coming from a lamp post. The shadows still make it hard to see. I felt a sense of rejection, and reminds me of our old dormitory.

      We were traveling on a boat/barge; old ones, made out of wood, not metal. We were in a war of sorts. I think there were fewer of us left. I see a formation of tanks, the size of blocks, and I vaguely recall staring at them as they transform, trying to figure out if it was a dream, but then it all became hazy. A friend is commanding the small tanks.

      I recall seeing a restaurant, and a cruise.

    13. 06/16/11 The Lost Caverns of Pennywise

      by , 06-17-2011 at 07:50 AM (New Dream Adventures of Raven Knight)
      The Lost Caverns of Pennywise
      I am in a forest with MoSh and Asuka. I look around to see where we are, but I don't recognize the place. MoSh asks where this lost cavern of… um… this lost cavern of whatever is. I say it's not far off, and I start looking for a cave entrance. We are at the base of a mountain, so I figure it will be easy to find a cave entrance here. When I finally find it I am surprised to see it looks like it is the appropriate size for a hobbit maybe… it is a tiny hole.

      To go through it there would be no choice but to get down and crawl through, maybe even wiggle through on my belly. I point at the hole and tell MoSh I thought the entrance was bigger, but maybe it collapsed. MoSh suggests blasting through, but that would destroy too much, might cause more cave-ins. I said it couldn't be that small for far, the caverns themselves are huge. So it must just be for a short way. I crawl into the hole and down the narrow passage. It doesn't seem very short, of course I am unable to move very quickly on my belly. MoSh is behind me, and Asuka is behind him. The hole we are crawling through is lined with mud. It is getting us filthy, but at least there's no chance of getting stuck. I come to a dead end. Shit! We have to back out?! No… there's a stone blocking the passage. I give it a shove and it falls away, dropping about ten feet down to water. We have reached the caverns. I tell MoSh to jump out of the small passage, there's water below. By the rock landing I could tell the water was deep. We jump into the water with a splash and grope blindly until we find the shore.

      It is pitch black down here. I use the spell 'lumos' from Harry Potter, somehow without a wand, and the cavern lights up. It is a huge cavern, I see the hole we entered through on a low area of roof over the water. There's definitely no way to go back the way we came! There are several passages exiting the cavern, and since we have no set destination, we just take the closest one. The cave walls are lined with strange drawings and strange writings, images that clearly depict a war going on until it starts raining and then the rain seems to bring peace somehow. A strange creature is blocking our path. It has huge bulbous eyes that seem to glow with a faint white light, he doesn't seem to like the light I am creating, but he also doesn't seem to know where the light is from. The creature looks mean, like a form of mutant goblin, and it snarls at us to prepare to die. I tell him he can't be serious… if he values his own life, he had better back off. We aren't here to kill anyone, but if you force it… The goblin retreats into the darkness. We explore some more, Asuka finds some flowers growing in a small wet area, the flowers glow in the dark. They are quite beautiful. The goblin also returns with several friends and he repeats his threat. I repeat my warning. He attacks. I summon my Witchblade sword and cut him down easily. This gives the other goblins pause, and they retreat quickly into the darkness.

      We find the end of the passage blocked by an ornate looking door, a heavy looking wooden door… seems odd… It takes some effort to open the door, as it seems to be on old hinges that don't work too well any more. As the door slides open the ruins of an amazing city are revealed. It looks like something out of ancient Rome or Greece, and I realize my light is no longer needed. The walls and the ceiling of the cavern, as well as much of the floor, are all covered with those glowing flowers. The door, which opened with difficulty, now slams closed behind us all by itself. We set off to explore the place. I am wishing I could somehow get photos of this place back to my waking life… that would be cool. Maybe I can model something like this… but that will take forever! We keep looking around and we soon find a temple in the center of the city. The temple is mostly intact. We go inside and find there is a woman there and the room is full of treasure. She says we should go ahead and take a share of treasure if we wish… but only the worthy will be able to get across the water. There is a pool of water around the platform with the treasure. The pool is radiating pure light energy. MoSh and Asuka go over to look at the treasure.

      I am about to join them when I notice laughter, rather disturbing sounding laughter. No one else seems to hear that. I look around for the source of the sound but I don't see anything. The laughter gets louder and sounds creepy. I look towards a dark arch and see glowing silver eyes through it. A clown emerges, the clown looks like Pennywise from the book It by Stephen King. What is he doing here? He disappears through the arch, I follow him, I don't think it is a good idea for Pennywise to be wandering around here. On the other side of the arch is an abandoned carnival, the carnival has a creepy evil atmosphere around it. Pennywise is standing next to one of those wheels where they tie a person to it and another person throws daggers at it, getting the blades as close to the person as possible without cutting them, to demonstrate the thrower's skill and the courage and trust of the person on the wheel.

      There is a man tied to the wheel, Pennywise has cut his stomach open and is pulling out the man's intestines and twirling them around a fork like spaghetti. The man is screaming in pain. Pennywise says I should come over and eat some… YUCK! I call my Witchblade sword back and I slice Pennywise in half down the middle. The scene around me melts and I find myself submerged in the strange fluid formed as the scene melts. It is a thick and viscous fluid, impossible to swim in, like mud. I sink underneath the crap but that shouldn't be a problem, I'm dreaming. But I can't breathe… I can't move and I can't breathe. What the fuck?! I decide the only way to get out of there is to go ahead and wake up.
    14. 5/15/2011 - Lions, Disks, Snakes, and King

      by , 05-16-2011 at 04:39 AM (TheNinja's Dream Journal)
      Dream 1:
      A group of 3 lions and I attack a group of 6 or 7 lionesses. They don't put up much of a fight, and so now we are the leaders of their pack. All of the lions go on ahead to somewhere and leave me, a lioness, and another lion behind. The other lion goes somewhere and the lioness and I realize that we knew each other as cubs. We sneak off after the other lions, which are far far away now, and at some point we think we hear 2 lion cubs mewing, but instead I see a deadly looking scorpion. Suddenly, from behind the scorpion, a strange kind of animal that doesn't exist in RL leapt at me in slow-mo from where. It had 3 parts, two circular spiked disks attached by what looked like a snake's body without the head or tail (something like this: 0~0 ). Then, as if the scorpion and other creature were working together, the scorpion leapt at me as the creature landed. I managed to kill the scorpion in midair by slashing it with my paw, and it exploded into dust. Then the creature split into 3 parts (two disks and one full size snake with a head and a tail), and the disks started spinning. I swiped at the snake and it exploded into dust. Then one of the disks, now spinning extremely fast, launched into the air at my chest level. On instinct, I dropped to the ground, and a spray of needlelike bones shot out of the disk where my head just was. Before the other could do the same, I stomped on the now empty disk, and killed the other. The lioness had gone ahead after the rest of the pack, so I followed their trail into a tunnel. At this point in time, everyone has now morphed into red or blue disk type things (black disks whose circumference had a band of light encircling it. The lions that had taken over had blue bands, and the lionesses and I had red ones. The disks travel by rolling.) As I roll farther into the tunnel (and I'm rolling about as fast as a race car) the tunnel becomes more and more man made looking, going from clay walls to finally steel with fluorescent lighting. After I almost catch up to the lioness and the rest of the lion pack, the lion who stayed behind with me (now a disk also) saw me, realized that I had joined the lionesses' side, and somehow forcibly changed my color back to blue. It went along ahead. As I neared the final bend that would bring me out of the tunnel and into full view of the entire pack, my colors started flickering out, more and more frequently, until they went out altogether. Suddenly, they turned back on, now back to my previous red color, except brighter this time. I rounded the bend and entered a room that was some sort of arena (note: I am now just a regular human). The lioness snow also in human form. She tells me that we've been taken captive and the only way that they'll let us live is to perform for the audience our "epic hoverdisk skillz". The arena is filled with ramps and other types of things, and is encased in heavy duty black netting to keep us from escaping. The only entrance is a viewing balcony about 50 meters above us. [dream skip] We are about to try to escape by hitting a ramp at full speed to catapult us into the viewing balcony. I mount my hoverdisk and my friend does the same (the lioness). The hoverdisks are just like the disk I had previously been, except I stood on top of it and it was parallel to the ground this time, not perpendicular. We hit the ramp and almost make it, but drop just short. The security guards rush out and punish us. [Dream skip] were trying to escape again, but this time aim at the netting. We hit the netting ten feet below the balcony and start to climb. The guards start to shoot at us with arrows and yell at us to halt, but instead we climb faster. We enter the balcony and a guy who looks like prince Humperdinck's dad from The Princess Bride enters the room. He's wearing a crown, and when he sees us he runs away shouting "Guards! Guards!". We run down a different hallway that's walls are pink and there are strange portraits on the walls. It looked like what a palace might look like if it was from Alice In Wonderland. The guards are chasing us, and suddenly we realize we are in a corridor that dead ends at a maintenance closet. We sprint towards it, get inside, and lock it from the inside. The guards start to try to break the door down, and we climb up into an air-conditioning vent in the ceiling. We pick up some heavy candlesticks and then the guards break the door down. Both of us swing the candlesticks as hard as we can at the first person we see that enters the door. We hear a clatter and a scream, and then we shut the vent. I look through the grilles and all I see is a pool of blood and a golden crown. I crawl as fast as I can back to my friend, and five seconds later we hear a mournful cry from the maintenance room: "The king is dead! The king is dead!"
      At some point in this dream, I woke up, but it was so cool that instead of re-entering the dream lucidly, I decided to reenter it nonlucidly to not interrupt it's plot. I know this post is pretty much impossible to understand, but that's just because the dream itself was impossible to understand. The dream time for this was probably around 2.5 hours.

    15. Special Relativity Exam

      by , 05-14-2011 at 07:58 PM
      For some reason I was doing my special relativity exam that I did in school a week ago. The question I was working on was about how much the astronauts inside a rocket bounded for Alpha Centauri from Earth at v=0.95c aged during the journey.
      I remember doing some calculations on the paper in front of me. I used a blue pen but the ink came out in all sorts of colours.


      After I woke up I reflected upon that dream and I was actually pretty amazed. I was able to read quite a large chunk of text in my dream without the words going fuzzy, had some precise figures (ie. velocity=0.95c), and did some time dilation calculations that actually made some sense.
      Of course I didn't expect to work out the answer to that question because once I woke up I realised that it was actually incomplete. In the actual exam, I was told that the distance from Earth to Alpha Centauri is 4.3 light years. Without this information I couldn't have worked it out.
      On the whole it was a great and memorable dream!
