Hotel California...

I get a false awakening, I'm so tired I start to fall asleep standing up - I then think that this is a bit strange and do an RC,my usual method I can't do because it is too dark to see anything so I try holding my nose - but find I CAN'T breath, although I decide that this is really not a true way of doing an RC (for me) because it has failed many times in the past, but then I sorta just know that it's a dream and walk out of the bedroom. In the hallway it is still very dark (the dreams are only just beginning to form) so I shout 'luminos' to try and brighten the place up - all I get is a sputter of light and then darkness. So I walk downstairs and out of the front door into...

What looks like a hotel (a mostly dark brown wooden interior), I know I need to get to Chichen Itza but forget what the best method to do so would be. I find the skeleton key in my pocket (which I found last week in my dream) and walk around trying to find a closed door to open (with the skeleton key) and use as a portal to get to Chichen Itza - I'm walking around what looks like the outside of the hotel - I expect to see a door - and do, lots of them - but all of them have windows in them so that I can see what's on the other side - and if I can see what's on the other side I can't get it to work like a portal (damn dream - I ve done this to myself before - or is it me, I don't know) SO then I decide to get out of the hotel and hotel grounds and fly to Chichen Itza. So I walk through the hotel, trying to search for the entrance, I walk past a woman behind a desk (I think she is wearing blue and is the receptionist) and walk into a revolving door - but the compatment to go into is very small and tight and just goes round and round and round and doesn't let you go out - DAMN! Then I wake

(so the hotel wasn't in California but much like THE hotel California from the song!)

Build it and they will come

I'm falling asleep but very aware, this turns into a DIELD. I can see a whole mountain range scenary, I'm thinking about Chichen Itza and how I need to see that, and then decide to CHANGE it into Chichen Itza, I see my hand - a giant ghost like hand hovering over the scenery - I find that I am able to move it - shaping and forming the scenery. So first of all I decide to try and make the central mountain range into a pyramid shape - but find this much more tricky than I first thought, then the dream starts to take control and I decide on using a pyramid shape from zbrush computer program as a good basis, and then it fades and changes or I wake.

Wake up!
I'm aware that I'm dreaming (3rd time in the night - woot!) and am with my wife - I try to tell her that she is too, I pull and extreme face, first of all I pull my cheeks far apart with my fingers, and then I pull my jaw back, breaking it and pulling it into my chest - all so that she would remember the dream when she woke. The weird thing is that as I'm pulling these faces I see myself in the third person - behind my head - so I have no idea what these faces look like (though I was trying to go for that part in the film Beetlejuice when the two main characters pull there faces into ghoulish shapes)
I then decide that I need to get to Chichen Itza - so I fly up into the sky. The scenery is amazing, I am so high and travelling so fast, I can see so much countryside and forest beneath me, hills and rivers and trees- it looks so beautiful - but before I get anywhere I wake. ARGH!!

I was at my grandparents house. We have some cousins from Ireland over. One of the cousins made a bunch of deserts. One of them was this blueberry cheescake. While we were having them my dad was calling me names and putting me down. So now Im walking home. I'm on the side of the road and next to me there is an empty lot. It is full of weeds and stuff. I don't know what exactly triggered it but I did a nose reality check. I could breathe. So I decided to fly but I fell. I felt in my pocket for this blue sticker that gives me flying
powers. It was in my pocket. I put it on but it fell
off. I could fly though! I flew to my school to try to find my friends. I land in the back of my school. The whole layout is different. I decide to walk around to the front. So as I'm walking I'm rubbing my hands together stabilising the dream. As I walk by this one could from school last year was walking by and started laughing at what I was doing. I walk up to the door of the cafeteria. There are two of them. I opened the door thinking this room will be loud. I open the door and it is dead silent. Everyone in there is looking at me. I start to run to the other side of the cafeteria just because of how creepy it was. I get to the front of the school. I see one of my friends there. She is alone. I start to hang out with her then some more of my friends come by. It's Payton and some other guy. I tell them I can make them fly. Payton said it reminded him of some other dream he had a while back, which made me think of dream sharing. He said it was cool.


[SIZE="2"] I know I'm missing a ton of details but this is all I remember pretty much [/COLOR]

had an unexpected lucid dream(DILD).

I was in my hometown talking to my brother. as I walked across the street I saw a white car driving by. I started to run across the street to hurry and get out of the way. after crossing I noticed the white car was trying to chase me. I didnt know why but the two guys inside were mad at me. they were about to drive onto the sidewalk when they got out and chased me by foot. I turned the corner and noticed a good hiding spot. I hid behind a pillar and was inside the display stand for one of the stores. my brother followed me and stood infront of the display looking for me. the 2 people chasing me also stopped and couldn't find me. as I got anxious I realized i was just in a dream. but I wasn't as enthusiastic as usual when I realize im dreaming. I was more concerned with taking control. so i told myself the 2 people would leave(and they did). I stepped out of the display and walked back around the corner. as I turned the corner, i was teleported to a house(supposedly mine, but much different). my 2 brothers were there and I saaw my mom in the kitchen. I tried using my voice to command people. I said something to my brother and he left. I asked my mom to leave and buy me something, but she said she had a headache. I sighed and got impatient and looked her in the eyes and said "you feel better now". she was healed and left. I walked away into the house ready to think up something fun to do while lucid, but awoke.


notes:
very good control
short
not creative(not enough time)

On this date, September 29, 2011, I had a Lucid Dream!

The dream began with I and my mother standing near the front door in our apartment. It was late at night and somebody had knocked at the door, (in real life my mother would NEVER open the door to a stranger past sundown), but in the dream she swung it open! I thought to myself, "That's weird, why is she opening the door?" Standing on the other side was a carbon copy of my mother! Only this one was angry and zombie-monster like. It ran toward me and to defend myself I grabbed it's neck and squeezed hard. It seemed to disappear, but it wasn't attacking me anymore. I looked at the door and there was another zombie mom coming in. I looked outside into the hallway and there were more zombie mothers. Another dozen, at least! Lumbering up the steps toward us. I said to myself in the dream, "Oh my god, this is a dream!". The moment I realized I was dreaming, I got a funny feeling like something was going to happen and I remembered what this site said. If I get too excited I'll loose the lucidity. So, I stopped took a second to relax and decided to explore this new environment!

Since the front door was being invaded by zombie like carbon copies of my mother, I decided to go out the balcony and down our fire escape to get outside. I said again, "This is a dream" and my mother (the actual one!) replied with "Oh course it's a dream. Everything is a dream." Now, when I heard that I thought she meant everything in reality was a dream (later when I woke up I figured she meant everything I was seeing then was a dream). It gave me slight pause, but not enough to stop me from seeing and exploring some dream world. I walked out the glass door to our balcony and was ready to climb down the ladder to the ground, but before I did I lowered down a second ladder to prop against the fire escape ladder. I have no idea why I did this. (I remember thinking of DV again and remembering something I read the night before about jumping off of balconies to fly, but was afraid if I fell, I'd wake up) So, perhaps in my lucid mind, the ladder was safer and two was even better! I crawled down the ladders and got to the ground outside. Someone was walking down the sidewalk and it was Alton Brown from Food Network (I know WTF?!) He went and told the office I was using the fire escape so I decided to put the second ladder on the balcony. I was going to ride my bicycle around dream land (which in real life would have been locked to the base of the fire escape, but I decided to walk and take it slow) my bicycle wasn't there anyway. The dreamscape shifted and I was at my old apartment complex, but still outside. I looked up to the sky as I walked down the parking lot and saw this awesome sky of night, but not a normal night sky. It was black with shades of blue and gray. Like a painting. The trees almost fluorescent green. The contrast mystical. The breeze was picking up and I could FEEL the breeze. The scenery was clear and panoramic. I spread my arms out and said, "This is great, I'm in a dream!". I looked around and decided to see if I could fly. I was a little apprehensive because I didn't want to blow it. I started moving my arms around and lifted my feet off the ground. I was floating! I got about as high as the roof line of a near by pick-up truck. The feeling inside is not explainable. I came back down gracefully. I was looking around for something to do or someone to talk to (I had at least two separate thoughts to find a women to have sex with, but I was more interested in exploring the scene) but there were no people around. The scene transitioned again and I was back in our apartment, back where I started. Consciousness and clarity seemingly gone. I was standing in front of the glass door, looking out on the balcony at a bowl of apples blowing around, thinking they were to heavy to move like that from the wind. My mother was sitting nearby and I was talking to her. I believe I had just turned on the computer to get on DV and was waiting for the computer to gear-up.

My eyes popped open and I was awake. I laid there for a moment to gather my thoughts and didn't move. I didn't notice I was coming out of SP. I counted my fingers and tried to push my finger through my palm and concluded I was actually awake. At no time during the dream did I perform a RC. I rolled over to get my journal and looked at the clock. It was about 4:45am. I had gone to bed a little before 11:00pm. I wrote down my dream and remembered the one I had before the LD. My LD seemed to last much longer than a regular dream.

I didn't fall asleep until about 7:00am. I kept tossing and turning and at least twice I felt like I was entering another dream which was waking me up. The time that passed felt more like 30 minutes than two hours. It seemed to slow. I had two more dreams before getting up at 8:00am.

It was a very active night. All inside my head

I become Zeus within a dream and went Trick or Treat (WILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I was going with Ana in a car trip. She was going to drive as I felt very tired. It was getting dark, so I got comfortable in my car and tried to fall asleep.

I found myself in a small town and realized that since I went to sleep in the car, I was dreaming (funny, accepting the reality of a dream, but not realized I went to sleep in a dream) I was in front of a big mountain. Such mountain was filled by houses and stores. I took a small flight to make my dream crystal clear and immediately recalled the ToTM.

I thought about transforming again into God Phoenix, but I realized that was a Roman God and not a Greek one. I decided to aim for Zeus. I started to visualize lighting bolts sparkling within my hands. Soon, I started to grow. My arms and chest became very muscular and I grew up in size. I suddenly had a huge lighting bolt in my hand. A voice told me I was Zeus and I owned the Master Bolt.








I figured with the basic done, I needed a costumer, but again, as it was a dream, I really did not care about it. I flew to one of the homes on the mountain and knocked the door requested trick or treat.
A kid opened the door and gave me a small purple ball. I tasted it. It was like strawberries.

With both task done, I decided to try to project, but suddenly I felt my dream body moving abruptly.

I woke up in the car. We had an accident and the dream turned third person. My parents where there and they were talking with my wife. She was freaking out due the accident. I tried to ask her what happened, but she was too nervous to talk.
A little after, I woke up for real.

Date: 29/10/11
Time: ~9am
Memory Clarity: 8/10
My IRL friend, Dean and I were just finished inflitrating some kind of compound. We came out of the vents of the building into the main interior, which was a school. There were students there, packing up the chairs and tables as it was the end of the year. I observe this happening, when suddenly I feel myself begin to wake up - I was beginning to feel my real-life body. I focused extremely hard on maintaining the dream and lo and behold, it worked! The dream resumed, with the exact same scene, except because of the almost awakening I was now lucid.

I was fairly excited, and turned to Dean to tell him but he wasn't there, so I made him walk through the doorway and told him 'Hey Dean, we're in a lucid dream!' Dean replies 'A history dream!?' and runs off somewhere. I simply looked around the area, and saw a DC who I'm pretty sure was a substitute teacher from my school. She and another student approached me, and we made small talk about dreams, which I can't remember exactly, but the teacher said, 'If you're in a dream, why aren't you doing more crazy things,' to which I replied 'I just feel like relaxing.' And it was relaxing - I observed the surroundings and noticed how real it seemed. Soon after the dream collapsed.


I'm fairly proud of this; it's been a while since my last lucid. This is the first time I've ever been able to retain the dream when about to awake, which was cool too. I suppose that makes it a DEILD?

I'm in my apartment. It's day outside and sunlight is coming through the windows and lighting the whole room I'm in. I don't quite remember what I was doing; the computer wasn't on and I was probably doing my homeworks. Over the flow of the dream, I wonder if I'm awake or dreaming - eventually, at that point, I notice that the hand I had on the desk didn't have the ring-finger and the little finger (or, even better, most of the finger was amputated).
"Is it a dream? ...Yes, it is" - I get up and take a look around: I can feel the different feeling of the landscape, it isn't anything like the physical plane. It also feels a lot different from the other lucid dreams because, this time, I was holding complete control over the dream...
I think that I should try something that I planned to do: a shared dream. I focus my energies on the wardrobe, expecting to create a portal through it. I wait a few seconds before opening the wardrobe door, but there's nothing in it but some clothes. So I think that I should do something else than creating a portal: I try to summon my personal weapon, a green electric whip, but I don't even succeed in that. I try to summon fire to burn the floor, and still nothing.

I head out by the main door and all I see around me is unknown buildings. "I'm not supposed to be here, where am I? This isn't my city." - Indeed, the city looked a lot like Chinatown. There were very narrow streets, extending between shops and poor apartments. It's night. The shop signs are the only source of lighting.
I turn left to the first alley, then the world changes around me again.

It's still night. My level of awareness is slowly dropping. I'm in an arena, it looks quite ancient and arcane. There are demons approaching from every direction. They have got purple skin and an armor covering their heads, shoulders and legs. They're led by a bigger, flying demon. It's got a dark armor covering its whole body and it's got devil horns.
As they surround me and they're about to attack me, I jump high in air and fly away. The landscape is very big: it's an huge dark purple wasteland with a purple sky and purple lightnings.

I don't recall anything else.

First Day of SAT: (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

My recall is still poor, so I don't remember the start of this dream.

I'm walking with my friends in the lobby of my school. I stop walking, then suddenly realize that everything is kind of blurry. I think "Wait, who the hell were those people? I don't even know them...". I think that I am dreaming, so I quickly do the nose plug test, but I do it too quickly to actually tell if it worked. Just to make sure I am actually dreaming, I stare at my left hand, then try to force my right through. My hand slips right through it and I get extremely excited.

I wake up because I was too excited. I am so surprised that this happened. I only read about SAT for the first time yesterday- then only practiced it 3-5 times. Well, looks like I found myself a new method (I just have to work on dream control and controlling my excitement.

It was on a cold and misty morning. I can see a few people in my kitchen talking and enjoying their conversations. Though, I had no clue who these people were. I walked in front of them cautiously and then I see something coming from behind one of the girls. It was a person wearing a white mask of a cursed ghost. I remember the fear but I can also remember being lucid. And because of that, I looked at the person under the mask with courage. Now, I walk outside to search for things that could interest me. It was messy in the backyard and I saw a few people hanging around a tree in the back. But for some strange reason, I felt depressed. I then walked over to the right of the house and stood there for a minute. I performed a few actions. First, I tried to see if I had any special combat moves. Second, I jumped up to see if I was able to fly away from my current location. I couldn't. Now, as I proceeded further towards the front of the house to the left, I pinched my nose to see if I was indeed lucid. At this point, I was amazed that I was lucid and didn't escape the dream as soon as I become lucid. But there was one thing I've always wanted to do in my dreams. That is, kiss the girl of my dreams and being able to hold her in my arms. As I have done before, I tried to summon her around a corner by putting my deep faith in believing she would be around the corner. But when I turned to a corner, I would see her, but only for a couple seconds. But those couple of seconds delighted me. She appeared to be vivid and I wanted to try and summon her around a corner again but I always failed.

So I was trying to fall asleep last night at like 2AM after an emotional night with my girlfriend. But I couldn't. So I tried doing the visualization and mantras from Naiya's MILD Technique (great technique by the way, check it out) and I imagined myself with my girlfriend and just let my subconscious take it from there.
Bold Represents pieces of the dream I actively controlled
So me and my girlfriend are at a fancy dinner party with my friend and his girlfriend. Him and I are in sportcoats and the girls are both in tight pink dresses (my subconscious is a dirty little thing ) when suddenly someone walked in to the party who I can only describe as the antagonist to his life and mine. And he walked in with a girl who could be described the same one. We'll call him Rob and my friend Andy. Rob pulls a glock out and starts shooting at Andy and I. Everyone else flees the room except our girlfriends, let's call mine Kayla and his Gina, who hide under a table. Andy and I, of course, are strapped with heat (note: I don't actually carry a gun around and neither does he) and we fire back. Rob's girl, we'll call her Amy, pulls out a gun too and fires at Andy and I. The room is full of bullets and it's a miracle no one's dead. When suddenly, Rob shot at Kayla. Enraged, I tackled him and fired 1, 2, 3 times in to his head. Because I was lucid, he died from this. Amy was still shooting at Andy, who she managed to hit and he fell. Gina rushed to him, and Amy shot her too. They were pretty hurt. I had a good shot, so I shot at Amy, and she fell. Kayla and I rushed to help Gina and Andy. Rob and Amy, however, were dead.

That was the first dream, and I was drifting in and out of lucidity the whole time. In the second one, I was much more in control.
So me and Kayla were walking home from a party, dressed in the same things, me in my sportcoat her in her tight little pink dress. I puffed up her features a little, I mean come on, I'm just a guy! When suddenly, Rob came around the corner and shot at us. I jumped in front of her now voluptuous body, trying to take my focus off of making her hotter. (I mean come on.) Finally I broke free and DC'd up a glock for myself and shot back. I managed to hit him in the shoulder, but I was still hurt as well.
Meanwhile, on another street (it looked like 42nd Street in Midtown), Amy shot at Gina and Andy, who were together. Andy did not protect Gina, but thankfully Amy did not hit them. Andy pulled out his gun and leaped for cover with Gina, and they leaped and crawled to Rockefeller Plaza, which me and Kayla had somehow gotten to. Amy and an injured Rob had followed us there, and a massive shootout ensued. Before anyone could get a good hit out, a helicopter landed carrying President Obama and Jay-Z. The shooting stopped. But they just walked away. I shot at Rob and took his head clean off. Amy shot back at me, and in a sudden lucid decision, I dodged it. I shot back at Amy and hit her. Before I finished her, Kayla grabbed my arm. "Let [Andy] do this." I looked at her funny, but before I could protest, she kissed me passionately. Well forget the other thing.
Andy shot up Amy for a good 10 minutes. Gina praised him as a hero, and he took her in his arms. Me and Kayla looked on, smiling.

This dream was low clarity, but was very easy to manipulate. I enjoyed it very much. Again, Naiya's MILD technique is amazing.

Morph into the God Phoenix! (MILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I woke up in the early morning and told myself I wanted to have a nice lucid dream.

I was walking in a big field. I was away from home and from the busy civilization.

I turned lucid spontaneously. The dream went crystal clear. As usual, I took a flight to make sure the dream was stable. It was a very hot day and the sky was dark blue. Not one single cloud. I could feel the heat from the sun beams in my face... I really enjoyed this flight until I saw a young dark haired female DC.

She approached at me and asked me to take a flight with her. We did take a flight, and suddenly, we appeared right in front of a castle. The castle looked medieval, so I figured we could have time traveled.

As we approached the castle, the sky got darker, until it was night. The entrance of the castle had a regular door, instead of the huge hatches castles have. When we entered, I saw a big bazaar. There was a lot of stuff to sale, the aisles were very tight. But I did not focus on this. There was a battle going on within the gardens of the castle.

I wanted to join the fight, but not in human form. I thought it would be cool if I morphed into a phoenix. I realized that morphing is not my big thing in a dream, and turning into a whole phoenix could be kind of hard.

I visualized flames around me and wings. Suddenly, I saw myself as a phoenix. I was flying over the gardens. These had a big pool in the very middle and I could see my reflection.







I then visualized fire coming out from my body into the soldiers. I saw right away all the soldiers runing in dispair. I could see they were in flames. I also saw how the gardens were burning down and even, some flames were in the pool, still burning.

After a few minutes, I found myself running out of fire, but I could lit myself up again.

A while later, when no more soldiers were running around, I found myself in my regular body.

After that, I had some plot with a lady and trying to have sex, without lucidity, and with little recall from here.

1) Low lucidity LD involving staring into this girls eyes (i thought she was a member at DV)

2) I was in my hometown and there was a big religious parade. The leader of the parade was glorifying himself as a messenger of jesus christ in a way i found offensive to life itself. so, i took the piss out of him.
can't remember what i actually said but at one point he cracked and yelled:

"YOU! stop saying funny things and then i will find them amusing"

Me: "but you admit you find them funny"

the crowd laughed and the dream faded.''

3) Me and my flatmate had a scooter race. felt like i was going like 200km. A corner came up and he turned but i lost control and was thrown off. when this happened i left my body and saw myself crashing in front of me.

whiterains dream

short lucid last night. it was something like there was a ball dispenser like a bubble gum machine but big on the side of a road. it was sending out messages in balls and ideas and seemed to represent some part of the brain or something. i think it was also sending out trigger messages to be lucid and i think i ignored it briefly then suddenly caught on. it seemed like a good idea to somehow release the balls and charge the machine up. i held a ball and chaged it up somehow then smashed it into the machine to send more of these messages out. i remember looking at one of the balls and saying to my bro/mate as we left "see look at them all, some of them are ideas that we havent even had yet"

I was on my couch with my brother and this annoying girl from my english class. I am sitting there and she asks if she can move to the other side of me. I say "go for it" and ahe moved. Also the couch is moved Right in front of the fireplace. There is no fire going on. Then randomly she jumps on me and kisses me. I get up pissed off and say this cant be real. I then do the nose reality check. I could breathe even with it closed. It felt weird but awesome. So i did it a couple of times. It stablized the dream unintentionally. So after becoming lucid i walk around my house. I want to go outside but it's dark and I don't want to get trapped in a black void. I ask my mom what time it was, she said "it's monday morning you can't make new memories". I looked at the clock it said 10:24. I walked to the sliding door in the back of my house and saw one of
those painted glass windows there instead. I see my
dad walking around looking out the windows and getting ready for work. I walked up to the frontdoor to see if it got any lighter but it didn't. I turned around and saw my pc. It had a mac snow leopard background and was moving. I turned around it had turned lighter out. Just like your everyday morning.i open the door and walk out. It was crystal clear. I saw my neighbors houses and even the grass looked realistic. I saw some brownish goldish thing on the ground. I thought it was a mushroom, I was going to eat it and trip in this dream. But when i got there it turned out to be leaves. I started walking to the side of my house. The whole neighborhood seemed a little emptier house wise. Upon turning i saw a mushroom on the ground. I kicked it and a crickett jumped away from it. I kept walking and had the idea to fly. I jumped up and then fell right on the ground. I then thought that there might be something i could use as an archetype to fly in my pocket. I reached in my pocket and pulled out a donut stick and two twinkies. I also pulled out a clarity pill, but i decided not to take it. (i wish i did.) i kept walking and found a mushroom. I ate it. It didn't really taste that good. It tasted rather stale. There were no effects from it. Soon i saw behind my neighbors shed a whole group of people picking mushrooms. I saw a bunch of them but decided not to pick any even though someone said they were good for you. I kept walking and saw a road and some bleachers on the road. I went up to the bleachers and saw this girl michelle I know. So I went up to her and we had sex. I saw my brother and sister while i was fucking her but they didnt come up to say anything. After i was done michelle left and went into the woods with my sister behind the bleachers. My brother was talking to some freshman who accidently texted him, he made some joke and i was brought into the convo. The dream ended.

Im insidde some halo map Ive never seen before, killing some people with weapons from dead space, I throw a bunch of nades and my brothers in there with me. I ran around for a bit and then I saw an arbiter with a energy sword chasing me, he was running fast and I couldn’t really stop him with my magnum pistol and few grenades, so I sprinting away from him and went up stairs as far as I could. I saw him kill some other people. Then I’m on the top floor and the whole map changes. my bros there with me and he keeps telling me to chop off his head with the dead space saw gun and I keep doing it but it regrows back each time. He tells me to do it again and I am about to but then I realize something is weird about all of this, I say im not gonna chop of your head and that there is much more useful things I can do with this tool and I look around and see a bunch of wooden objects I can cut. Immediately I become lucid noticing that I can’t really chop his head off and expect it to regrow back. I try stabilizing and I look around, I focus on the hair on his head and touch the wall but the dream fades anyway
