    1. early night lucid again

      by , 10-15-2015 at 10:18 AM
      Got to bed at 22:30

      Woke up at 1:30 with a lucid. i was semi-lucid to lucid with low awareness. (no memory on goals for example)
      some gaps in recall and as i woke up i needed some seconds to realize that i had a lucid. normally i wake up and am clear minded and happy about the lucid.

      i sit at a chair somewhere outside. there are two or three other friends. we wait for something. a door opens and and some friends are coming. it seems that we waited for them and want to drive somewhere? i try not to stand up but to levitate with the chair. i start smiling and tell a friend that i just cant concentrate on two things like talking to him and levitate at the same time. i try to focus, look down and tense my body but it doesnt work. now there is a table and we sitting around it. R is sitting towards me. he has a block with paper. i burn page after page down and at the beginning he wonders but then he sees that its me and says "hey!". I smile and want to try to throw a fireball. instead i throwing again a ball. this time it is a dragonball or something similar. i see it and get alarmed. the guy on my right side noticed it to and we both jump over the table to get the ball. he screams "my preciousss...." we get it at the same time and start tear and to pull. we lay on the ground and i finally accomplish to get it. right next to us is something on the ground. a little portal or something shimmery? A older guy with authority stands over us and says we should stop with this bullshit. i put the ball into my pocket.
      recallgap
      i am in a kitchen. my brother stands at the stove and cooks something. i think i try to levitate/fly again but it doesnt work. i look at my hand and want to make it burn. this time i concentrate just at the thumb and imagine how it would look like and it starts burning blueish. the fire expands on the whole hand. i need to focus a bit that it stays and not stops. i show it a guy next to me and ask him if he can see it. he nods. i throw the fire over the table and it jumps and falls to the ground. ups i say and go around the table to see it on the ground. i now put both my hands together and want to do a bigger fire. i concentrate again and throw it on the stove in the gas flame. the fire gets bigger for a second and makes a splutter sound.
      small recallgap i think
      going to get something. i am in a hallway. i see my dreamjournal on the ground and i want to pick it up. i sit down on the ground and think again about the levitation thing. i get the idea that if i concentrate on the book in my hand and make it levitate like there is no gravity the rest of my body will follow. the book starts having no weight in my hands and rise up and my whole body starts levitating too. i am that high that i can stretch myself and am standing. nice i think and am happy that it worked. i get a little higher aware and do a long noseplug and a deeeep breath. it is a little clogged but not much. i want to go back to the living room. i see my DJ on the ground and want to take it with me i dont want to bend down so i try it with telekinesis. i let the DJ rise but it opens and there are some markers a pen and some notes. i see challenge and try to make it all levitate but there are to many items and so i cant lift a part of it (damn real life restriction... i will work on that ) i bend down to pick everything up. i move some steps but then the DJ falls down. i get annoyed shortly and pick the stuff up. i hear my roommate saying: "Food is ready". i say i will come and hear S and K saying "i just want to try." i go to the living room and sit on the couch. i have a bowl with food. i think its like french fries with calamaris and some dip maybe? i tell L that i finally managed to levitate again. i sit on the bowl and have the same approach like before and let the bowl levitate and so do i. at the beginning i lean with my back on the couch and so i cant levitate to high or i would fall down behind. i notice that and shift my mass center and now i can levitate just beneath the ceiling. L tells S to look and he is shortly impressed but then keeps talking. he talks about minicar drivers (cheap cabs we have here), that he called one to let him pick them up and that he knows a special number normally they just give to each other and not to customers and that he has some of them already and he might open a business with it and make himself independent.
      i see myself on a street and see a minicar... wake up

      i think its very good that i start to have lucids without WBTB´s. so my new daytime practice seems to work somehow but on the other hand i am not that aware in those early lucids like i am after a WBTB but nevertheless a very good progress. i got a little bit frustrated about the fact hat i can accomplish lucids with WBTB´s when everything works fine with early bed time and focus and and and but it costs some energy and i wanted to get "spontaneous" lucids and now that i changed my RC/awarenessthing it seems to work pretty neat. one step closer to regular lucid dreaming
    2. Dark Room with Girl; College-High School, Drunk, Stoned Orgy, and a Fight

      by , 09-16-2015 at 05:47 PM
      Dream 1

      I was with a girl in a really dark place. I was trying to type in the password to her computer, and I figured it out. Also there was a mansion somewhere, with a huge atrium. That's all I remember.

      Dream 2

      I was in college high school, where it was sort of like high school in that everything was in one building, but it was also like college in that everyone could choose to go to class at different times or not at all. I remember one of the people I went to high school with (he was also possibly a nazi, but he didn't really do much as one). After one of our classes together, he invited me to go smoke weed with him and his buddies. I said yeah. He gave me his number and said he would give me more details about it later. I then started walking to a town farther than my weed-buddy's condo (i think it was one). It was downtown of a town, and there were lots of stores and crap there. There was also a big tower that looked like the one in Seattle. Eventually, my weed-buddy texted me back to be there at five. I realized I had a class at that time and said I'd be there anyway.

      I remember it almost being five and walking back to his condo. I went in and found him in the lobby or something. There were a few girls with him (one of them from my college hall irl, I'll call her V). We all went up to our friend's place after talking a bit and started smoking weed and drinking a bit of alcohol (possibly). Later on, we all started talking about having sex (in an orgy). Soon, we did have an orgy, but I never took my pants off. I then started 69ing V, with my pants still not off.... Later, after the sex, we went to a party in a lounge, and I told someone I never had a girl touch me. Then a girl with glasses and a blonde ponytail said she would give me a handjob, and she did. It felt good.

      Later at this party, there were a shit ton of people. Everyone got drunk and we all started playing that game where the floor is hot lava, and we were jumping on couches and what-not. After the party was over the next morning, I needed to find my school stuff, and I asked a guy where it was. He responded with hostile remarks and said that "I wasn't good at 'floor-lava.'" I then became semi-lucid for a few seconds and said "die." I threw a couch at him, and he flew away from being hit by a couch. I was sucked back into the dream, forgetting it was a dream, and was transported to the principle's office. I was telling him about the incident. The end.
    3. Demonic Cult

      by , 09-05-2015 at 03:36 AM
      I was a boy and I had a brother. His name was Wes. Somehow we had joined a cult like group. It was evil. The pentagram was everywhere, being carved into people’s skin. It was dark and there were evil ogres everywhere. There were some male humans, they looked depressed and malnourished. There were rows of human heads, there was a hand with the fingers cut off nailed to the wall. Wes and I sat down trying to go unnoticed. We wanted out. I knew our father wouldn’t want us there. All this was Wes’s idea and he was realizing just how bad it was. I somehow got us out. Our father was an ogre, but of a nicer kind. At this point I was just an observer. The father was driving a van and Wes was sitting in the back. The other brother was out chopping weeds. He called for Wes but Wes didn’t want to go. The father said, “Maybe you’re more like me than you realize.” The father realized that he did belong in the cult, just not with his other brother. The father is a diplomat for the cult. He goes there and talks in front of the others on a podium in the day time. He’s trying to advocate for the women’s rights. They have an equal right to kill and torture. Some of them start complaining that his sons haven’t been contributing.

      I’m on a boat in the day time. I’m going out with a group and several other boats for commercial fishing. The water is clear and a captain is explaining stuff to us. He explains that when the rudders break he has to call an expert who knows what he’s talking about. The boats start going and one almost collides with a couple of people on a raft, which the captain is annoyed about. On our boat the captain sees a note from one of the crew members that they had an appointment and won’t be on the boat until later in the day. That simply means they got left behind for good. We go to clean out their room and there are a lot of protein shakes of a specific brand. It’s chocolate milk flavored. It’s supposed to last for 15 years and we all discuss how gross that is. There’s a room filled with animals. There’s a little poodle and several cats and kittens. We have fun playing with the animals and petting them. We set up a little area for the cats to keep them from escaping and give them access to food and water. At some point I jump off the boat and I keep going down, down, down. I never stop going down until I start forcing myself up. I’m worried about my ears. My ear drum is perforated in real life and I’m not supposed to get water in my ears. I realize I can breathe, albeit I still feel oxygen depleted and I realize that I’m sleeping so it doesn’t matter. But I start to worry that I can still get water in them while I sleep.

      D driving me somewhere and my mom posting Instagram pictures of her 3 yorkies lined up.

      Sarah’s son plays games like chitty chitty bang bang and has a british accent. Hailey occupies my old room at my mom’s house and I tell her to get dressed by throwing two shirts at her. “Oops, that one was supposed to be underwear.” She’s laying in the bed and I need her for something. I’m shopping for astrological books online and they’re all hundreds of dollars. I decide to go with the cheapest version, which is paperback. The amazon fire version was cheapest at $70 but I don’t have a fire. Then I realize the “cheap” paperback is way overpriced anyways so I don’t buy any at all. I want to see a show about a certain historical site turned into a museum but that’s also expensive. I go for the cheapest show which is in a small, curtained dressing room. The guy is doing some illusory tricks but he’s not very good at them. I steal his wallet, tip him $5 from it, and leave. I start feeling bad and turn around to return it. I feel like Nicki Minaj or something. I realize that D and I have more money than him anyway so there’s no point in stealing. I’m very resistant to returning it, though.

    4. Night 11: drunken driving and short semilucid

      by , 08-28-2015 at 02:36 PM
      i apparently was partying i am asleep and C is waking me up (i lay on the ground?) she tells me we need to go or she needs to be somewhere. i am there with a car so i need to drive. i stand up and go to the car its a small one. my trunk is open and my backpack stands inside. i take it and put it on the frontseat. C get inside. i feel drunk but try not to show it. C tells me ah here you can buy something to eat or we first drive there and there and you buy yourself something there. i start the car and have problems with accelerator and break. we drive a short distance and turn right. i stop next to a car and try to fit in a parking hole or just to stand parallel to the car? i dont manage it that good because i am to far away from the other car. Nevermind i think and and keep on driving a litte choppy. its a small traffic calmed street. i drive slowly so i have the feeling that not that much can happen even if i feel that weird. another car comes towards us. a young girl is sitting in it and she drives in the middle of the whole street. i feel uncomfy and try to drive as far right as possible and in the last moment she steer a little to her right. C is complaining about her. i turn left and try to relax and try not to make a accident.

      WBTB

      i am in a foreign apartment. L and other people are there. i go the stairs down and leave the house. [i think here my Alarm clock ringed. it seemed that i turn it on snooze and fall asleep again and in the same dream back (DEID without the L^^)] i go back to the building and in front at a corner there are two guys that are smoking. i know that they where with us and they know each other but somehow its seems that they ignore eachother. i keep on going and am at the entrance there are a lot of bells and i think about what the name of the guy is i want to go, i am not sure what i am doing here but the buzzer turns on and the door opens. i think ah there were so many people outside so its nothing special he saw me and opend the door. i go up the stairs but again dont know or dont find the apartment i´m heading. a guy opens the door. it seems that he is the one who opened the door downstairs. i tell him i dont want to him and he closes the door. i think again and move back some steps and suddenly i see that behind his door there is a floor and it clicks in my head "Ah i am on the opposite site of the appartment and just need to follow the floor because everything is now mirrored" while i go thru the floor in my head/narrator says that he did deep mindfullness breathing and thats the reason why. i start breathing deeper. my awarness is rising. i enter an apartment/room a naked guy is sitting there and looking at me. i dont look down and pass him. on the left site there are two other guys just sitting there nobody is talking. i look back at the naked man cross the room and go through a door. here i see L again and i am happy to find him. [i am semilucid now] i tell him Nightfeather is coming up and point at the stairs behind him. he smiles knowingly[yesterday i told him IWL that i can now summon just like that people and they appear near me] we both go to the stairs and look down and just like that a girl with red a little brighter than yesterdayruns up the stairs. L and i look at each other and need to laugh hard like NO WAY its works really. i am happy that i could show him what i ment but then think about it and know that he wont know it in the morning because its my dream and not his... i meet her we hug shortly and i ask her how she is. she says good and i tell her that first we need to finish here something and then we can go. but then i ask her if she want to go outside with me and we go down and are in a street. she needs to go somewhere and i am waiting. i approach a shop at a corner where two women are talking to each other. the shop has no windows so i just enter. i look what she is selling and there are leather cloth. i look closer and see that it is motorcylce cloth like the stuff bikegangs are wearing. i look again at the two women and one is sitting now on a little harley. i walk backwards out of the shop and suddenly sit on a bike to. i drive a little up the street but remember than that i want to take NF with me so i turn and drive back to the crossroad. i search for her but cant find her. i call her name and after some time someone is approaching me and i wake up because the Alarmclock is ringing again.

    5. Lucid Dreaming Experiments

      by , 08-13-2015 at 05:27 PM
      Introduction

      I got up far too early this morning and decided to go back to sleep and lucid dream. It took me a while to fall asleep again after waking up. I used the usual MILD strategies - keep my body perfectly still until I experience sleep paralysis; focus on sleep; and maintain my lucid dreaming intentions. After an hour I so, I found myself in my first dream of several.

      The Dreams
      I was able to repeatedly induce a series of semi-lucid dreams, most of which I have already forgotten. I still remember a few of the dreams though. The first was a false awakening where I checked my hands. It was then that I realized that it was a false awakening - I had six fingers on each hand! Next, I squeezed my nose and realize that I could still breathe through it. That confirmed it - I was in a lucid dream! At this point, I was so excited that I was starting to wake up as I felt my hands on my bed (despite standing up in the dream). I tried to go back to sleep and lost consciousness. And so, I decided to "reboot" the dream.

      Take two. I held on to the previous dream in order to re-enter it. This time I found myself in the same dream bedroom I woke up in but instead of a false awakening, I was standing in the room. Just for fun, I did some experiments: I jumped and floated around. Then I waved my arms. Uh-oh...I was getting to excited again and my physical body was starting to wake again! I let go of lucidity and tried to "reboot" the dream again.

      Take three. Once again, I found myself in the same bedroom. I found my dad who was a dream character who behaved almost nothing like him in real life! I approached him with the intention of conversing with my subconscious. He seemed quite ... untalkative, providing with one word answers on everything I ask him. Nevertheless, the answers provided what I needed to move on. I was starting to wake up again from trying to be too lucid so I gave up lucidity again and rebooted into another dream.

      Final dream. I found myself at a lottery booth with lottery tickets scattered across a table. I tried to read the tickets for numbers and dates, hoping to see today's date and tonight's predicted winning numbers. But the numbers keep changing each time I glanced away. Instead of numbers, some of the tickets had words on them. For instance, one of them had "poop blossom" instead of lottery numbers. Hahaha...very funny, subconscious mind.

      Observations
      - Time/Duration: 7 AM - 9 AM / 2 hrs.
      - Dream control was poor in all of these dreams.
      - Dream vividness was also very poor - these felt more like daydreams than lucid dreams.
      - I was more "awake" in these lucid dreams than any I have had before (which were all DILD).
      - I was partly awake during the transitions between dreams.
      - Lucidity disappears if I become too "awake" in my dreams because then I can feel my physical body.
      - I was very "analytical" in these dreams, much like in waking life. I constantly tried to figure out what's "rational" and what's not in order to stay lucid. Maybe that's why I couldn't do many physics-defying tasks such as flying.
      - I was tired after waking up.

      Speculations
      - Having a series of lucid dreams reduces dream recall, analogous to having a series of regular dreams.
      - Vivid lucid dreams require me to be "less awake." DILD earlier in the morning may be best for that, based on prior experience.
      - Dream control requires less analytical thinking and more spontaneity. Stop thinking about physics!

      Planned Experiments
      - Try another MILD early in the morning but wake up after the first dream instead of "chaining" more dreams to it. Is dream recall improved? Am I less tired? How is dream vividness?
      - Dream control: Be more spontaneous in dreams. Stop being so analytical. (This is hard...)
    6. Creative Clouds and My House

      by , 05-04-2015 at 03:42 AM (One Up Seeker)
      1. I was walking down a street in a neighborhood with my family. This street lead to a huge open field. It was daytime and the sky was partially cloudy. As we approached the open field, I look up into the sky at the clouds. They are all pure white. Instantly I notice one cloud that is shaped perfectly like a Rubix cube. This rubix cube cloud looks exactly like the real thing, but in cloud form and all white. "Holy crap" I think to myself, "No way!". I pull out my phone and go on Snapchat. As I pull my camera view up to the clouds I notice that the rubix cube cloud is gone. "What in the world?" I think to myself.
      Instead, not too far to the right of where the rubix cube cloud was, I see another odd cloud. This cloud is in the shape of the eye of horus, perfectly. It too resembles the actual symbol exactly as one would see it anywhere else and is all white. "No way, what if thats a sign that the illuminati is real?" I ask myself(LOL). I am now in a semi lucid state(as usual) and I look around. The sun is no shining brightly as the cloud that was once covering it is no longer covering it anymore. I put my phone camera up to the eye of horus cloud and am about to take a picture. I take the picture, but as I do, I look at the picture I took and notice that the cloud is not in it. The cloud itself is still in the sky, but it is not present in the picture that I took. "That's odd" I think to myself.
      Just then, the entire sky goes dark and it is now nighttime. Stars are present everywhere in the night sky and the moon is shining brightly. Me and my family now walk along the outer edges of the huge field. As we take our first steps on the outsides of this field, I see a huge sculpture like symbol standing not to far ahead of us. This sculpture is so big, that the moonlight casts its shadow and its shadow is so big that it covers a big section of the field. The shadow looks like a perfect symbol oddly enough. There are multiple sculptures like this, and they are all large in their size.
      As we approach the first sculpture, a truck filled with construction workers comes speeding through the field and they come to a stop right in front of the sculpture. There is a yellow light siren on the top of their truck. I get the feeling that there is something wrong with the sculpture. All of the workers get out of their truck and run to the sculpture itself in a frantic run. As they get to the sculpture they start working on it at a quick pace. Suddenly the sculpture lights up and is now glowing in a bright blue and purple color. The ground surrounding the sculpture turns into a black hole/vortex type of thing and it too is emitting a mix of purple and blue colors. At this point I am at the verge of becoming fully lucid.
      I get out my phone and go to snapchat and start videoing what is going on in front of me. As I do so, all of the workers get sucked into the vortex and after that happens a small explosion occurs right in the middle of the it.

      2. I am inside of my house and there are a ton of people over. It seems that there is a party being held at my house. My grandparents and my aunt are here as well as at least 30 of my friends. I walk through the back door of my house where my dad is grilling burgers and I walk into the kitchen. I am highly aware of my surroundings but only semi-lucid at the moment. I walk around into the foyer and I look up my stairs. I see all of my 30 or so friends walking down the stairs towards me. "There's no way, this is way to many people" I think to myself. I make my way up the stairs to see what is going on up there. As I do so, I decide to do a reality check. "This definitely requires me to see if I'm dreaming" I say to myself as I go up the stairs.
      However, as I continue upwards, I get distracted and lose my train of thought and walk into my room completely forgetting what I was about to do.

      3. I was at the beach with my friend Dylan. The sky was extremely cloudy and it was raining lightly. "Cory, we can do anything we want" he tells me. "I know, isn't it amazing" I reply. I then realize that we are both hovering about 50 feet in the sky. We had been flying around for quite some time, and now we came to a rest. I had the knowledge in this dream, that I could do anything(yet looking back at the dream I am not sure I was lucid). Suddenly, I hear a weird sound that I cannot explain, other than the fact that it sounded somewhat like a really deep horn. This sound echoed across the entire sky. As it did so, me and Dylan both see an orb descend from the clouds. This orb is clear but is glowing red in its center.
      The orb continues to descend and lands on the shore, right where the water meets the sand. Suddenly, Dylan is pulled somehow out of the air and straight to the orb. He is powerless against this creature, and it comes to me that he is somehow infected by this highly intelligent orb creature. Next thing I know I am then pulled with great force to the orb and rendered powerless. I am now laying on the beach sand on my side. I look around while still laying down, everything is blurring, but not the ordinary blurry. My vision was blurry like the type of blurry that one would see on a video camera when it is out of focus. Suddenly, what I think to be the orb, speaks to me. "You think you are all powerful, but you are nothing." it tells me.
      I black out and then wake up in a forest, and I am aware that this is still the same dream. Dylan is next to me. In front of us, there is a big concrete highway elevated at least 100 feet off of the ground. It is huge, and it strikes me odd that there is a freeway in the middle of a forest, which is also next to a beach. I notice a long ship that is docked under the freeway, and this ship is just sitting there. I walk up to it and think of how great an idea it is to hide ones space ship under the freeway. This ship was no ordinary ship. It looked like an extremely high tech alien ship that had just come from outer space.
      Suddenly the ship fires up its engines and is now on. It leaves its place from under the bridge and flies away.

    7. Time Travel , good workplace.

      by , 03-14-2015 at 06:41 PM (GDreamer's spaghetti)
      I become lucid, now I don't know where am I.
      It seems to be a park, some kind of broadwalk.
      There was a chair, I stand here thinking what should i do, I didnt seen far away, it was night.
      and there was only a few lamps ,but after 10-20 meters theres no lamps, only the void.
      Then seconds after I realize thats a dream , a classmate comes, I dont like him, he's not even my friend.
      So he came here and we start to talk about that its a dream.
      Then I float him up in the air with telekinesis so I prove him that its a dream.
      He says he knows, I continue , I plan to kill him.
      we laugh because its funny for some reason that I use telekinesis.
      Then he says "stop , or we wont be able to go".
      It seems he already knew that its a dream ,actually he never said that its not.
      I say "where?"
      And he says "back to the day it has all begun".
      Then I see a black screen in my vision.
      Then he asks where to go , and somehow I sense out the date of "the day when it has all begun"
      I was tipping around 2003 , 2004 then it becomes clearer.
      Its 2003 , september 9.
      "The first day I began school in x (in reality I wanted to say y but idk why I couldnt , I didnt even wanted to g o to 2003 but 2009 because consciously I thinked that it was the date).
      Here we go.
      the screens gone, me and my classmate's still in the same park , but now there are more lights, and actually a city outside the park.
      We walk out in short time, I realize its the city I live in .
      Then I realized that it would fuhkk siht' up if I meet with myself, which was obviously not possible because it was late night. Actually Idk if it was 1 am or around 10 pm.

      Then we were gone to some place, at this point my memory becomes foggy, so I skip now.

      After we did what we needed to do we gone into the future, I dont know the date , its around 10 years after I finished the school I am in now.
      I had some kind of office job and also a delivery job, I needed to handle out these documents, before the day ended , it was 11 pm. I had one hour to do this job.
      The rules was these: Office job is something I always have to do, but if I want extra money I can accept those "contracts" where I handle out documents to places ,peoples ,corporations and doing further operations with these documents or just simply giving it . But If I fail to handle out a contract like this before the end of the day then somebody else will get the job and I get no money for it.
      The place was nice, I was surrounded by nice people, they were friendly and there were wonderfull woman.
      According to this dream, we were working till midnight, and always before the day ended we grouped , sit down and speak about the day etc, while drinking some coffe. It felt wonderfull, just something I always wanted. A calm job.
      We sat down and started to speak ,I was speaking with a woman about the things I had to do in the day then she said that i have a contract and that I have only half an hour left .
      I was like "nevermind, I wouldn't run out like crazy just because a contract in this time of the day, it doesnt matter . I missed it , thats it."
      Then I remembered that the contracts destination was near . So I was thinking about should I do it or not.
      While this the workers ended our little groupie talk, and started to pick up things and go home, I saluted them, and then choosed to go.
      I was approaching my car when the dream ended.

      Interesting.
    8. 11 January 2015: Deadly (But illusion) Carnival Rides; Telling elderly woman the LORD's prayer...

      1: Earliest that I recall yet though there are more: I saw a roman city-like place and I think I was Rainbow Dash going around the place in circles to get away from something. Then I was skipping past some torture devices and someone by the name of Amy was in one, it was like the video-game Chiller (A nasty torture device based "game") and I don't think I activated the torture device but I got darn close to the lever at least; I did hear the name of the woman who was in it and her first name was Amy. (Note, I heard the last name too and I later came across two women by that name the following day in one way or another though not physically; One is from the Amy's foods and the other asked for prayers at AllDevotion.com.) Then after going past that and skipping over a little running water near the torture device I got close to another "Attraction" in the "carnival" but didn't go into it, it being sorcery or something, and then I got near another one and the whole place suddenly looked like a Home Depot to some extent while I was in front of another "Attraction" that put a cage of some sort around me. I didn't believe it was telling the truth, though; I just turned on the Xbox 360 Guide (Yeah, how does this even work? Do I need to know? Good thing it does though, YEEHAW!) and hit the Exit button and got out of it. The ride did it again, but with tape this time; I got out of it again.

      Note: here's another typed account of it:

      1 (Account 2) I just had a dream (I didn't post it in my DJ before posting this reply) where there were "Attractions" like carnival rides that were all deadly. (Go figure, right? You know how some people call working "The circus" or "This carnival ride" or whatever?) One of the rides "Trapped" me by putting a cage around me (or at least it looked that way) to give the illusion that the only way out was to go through it and be devoured, Which is absolutely bogus. (I don't know how it would devour, It just would.) I only ended up exiting it by "leaving the game" through the Xbox 360 guide button. (Dreams have to make sense to me on some level, so does the Xbox controller signify that I was playing around with the idea of being trapped and leaving it? It seems so at least.) Then, the ride tried to do the same thing again but with some sort of tape around me. I just cut the tape and left the "Trap zone" before finding another "Attraction" (Which I didn't see anyone going into; Come to think of it I didn't see anyone entering the other one either) which was also deadly and I felt was sorcery. It was quite asinine but that one didn't try to trap me.

      - Copied from here: http://www.dreamviews.com/dream-inte...-everyone.html

      2: Then I was in a department store of some sort; I was doing something else earlier, but at another point someone in a white tee shirt wanted to trade MLP: FIM cards with me. I told him I didn't have any, then I went to get some in a rack of clothing.* I was about to get one card that had a number of "21" on it, and then I heard someone coming so I left and went through some hallways and ended up going into some corner in a darkened room that appeared to be a small dining area with a 1950s or 1960s type fold-up table and some chairs. An elderly woman walked in with a walker and sat down. I said "Hello" because I didn't want to scare her as it was dark, though it was light enough for me to see her. We talked for a little bit, Then later she started talking to her son (Who is not me; Also, her son wasn't in the room or at least I don't think he was and I had the impression her son wasn't in the building) saying she wanted to tell him something before she died. Then, this other rather demeaning or slightly demonic-sounding voice (At least by my interpretation) came in (The voice was present but I didn't see anyone else in the room) and said something about the first B-52's music album and MLP: FIM, I think, and also someone who built workbenches and that I was influenced by him or all these things. I also had this sense that the woman was literally going to go up in flames by spontaneous human combustion if I didn't do something so I (Semi-lucid) brought up a Bible and a Bible verse, that one being the Lord's Prayer for her and recited it vocally. I felt pretty lightened (and I also do when I write this. It's nice.) as I woke up while still thinking of it a bit and while reciting it in-dream.

      * That clothing is interesting, What does it mean? People go get it and wear it.

      3: I was in an area near a beach and the water was rising. I saw a woman with blond hair and I ran pretty fast without fatigue up a steep hill to get away from the water. I eventually got to the top but the water kept rising, so I went and jumped over the slope where water was shooting out into a valley below. I then floated while the water drained out of the valley and then I landed in the valley after the water was all out. Then, I went to the left with some people and a dwarven type guy or garden gnome type guy (Point is, he was small compared to me) and found what I think was a dead body of his brother lying down on a sort of table. The dwarf commented on this and later I looked around and there was rusty junk that was once useful stuff nearby, then I think we left. There's more to it, I do believe.

      4: Later on I (or who I saw through the eyes of) put a car (a black one, to my recollection) at a high-rise building for it to be worked on. I then went to the fourth floor and later tried to not be detected as I attempted to leave the building. I thought of using a hook to lower myself down an elevator shaft after I put the elevator up some stories above me, (note that this building is somewhat based on the house I've been living in, in waking life and the elevator shaft would have been where a fireplace is in a kitchen in waking life) and while still on the fourth floor I hid myself from two women by staying on the top of a bookshelf. I eventually got to the ground floor of the building but was found in the pool area (which was the living room of my house too) by my father.

      ______

      You know what? I can't call these nightmares, exactly. Sure, there were nasty things (The deadly but fake, "forced" carnival ride for example) hinted at but I didn't go into them so I didn't suffer them! I do believe you can avoid them too, if you seek for the way and reject the illusions!
    9. The Sage's visit

      by , 12-25-2014 at 11:01 PM (GDreamer's spaghetti)
      I was walking home while my friends were fooling around on the street
      I walk through the way from the bustop.
      But then an old guy , grey hair, grey-white suit, appeared and flew up in the air.
      At this part the dream became foggy , the next I remember from now I'm in a big building.
      Actually an infinite building. The old man , lets call him the sage.
      He was full of wisdom he telled me big things about humans
      but I do not remember any of those.
      Then I continued my journey in this infinite house
      I was facing with different memories of my life , sometimes just conversations, I had.
      Then I entered a museum where there were no lamps ,but there were light.
      And the paintings were surreal as hell. It scared me a bit
      then I continued my way in the museum.
      I met with my friend in a sector where were vintage sofas and chairs
      we sat down ,He asked what do I'm doing here I answered that I'm on a journey.
      He said that he's on a trip.
      I was aware at this point that the museum was meshed up with this world I'm in for a purpose, and that he doesn't know this .
      Then he gave me a red tie "for the special events" and I put iit in my pocket.
      then he leaved , the sage showed up again.
      We spoke again I tried to find out why is he do this to me , he said he want me to learn something , or thats all I found out from his speech.
      Then a scene started on a vintage bed. In anime style.
      A girl tried to wake up his boy, but then it turned out it was not his brother but her dead self , blood all over her face ,eyes open stare stiff, horrifying.
      Then I seen another girls face in negative vision , anger was on her face , then my vision normalised and at this point I said "this is bullshit, I'M OUT" And I woke up.

      I think it was some kind of trial , but I aborted it.
      I never met with a dream character having this big power.

      Now I want to meet the sage , but now in lucid state.

    10. "Climbing the Tree" and "Battle of the Bulge(s)"

      by , 11-15-2014 at 06:18 PM (Threecat's Dreamtime)
      I wake around 4:30 and induce. I am with my father on his porch. Suddenly, a Winnebago pulls up to the porch, and some guys get out and begin stripping his tomato plants of fruit. Then then get into the camper and drive off. I run out into the driveway to record a tag number. The tag has been removed, but their "camper tag," which is as large as a billboard, has the tag number (can't remember it now). I run back and tell my dad I have the number. I recite it once incorrectly, then correct myself. We get into his truck and give chase.

      While driving, he is not paying attention. A woman's car, pulling a trailer behind her, is sitting in the road. My father smashes into her, knocking her little car out of the way. I think this is hilarious in the dream and laugh. My dad looks at me.

      "Do you remember who I am?" he ask.

      "Of course," I say. "You're my dad."

      He nods, as though he is satisfied. "Son, you're dreaming this dream."

      I turn around to look behind us at the wreckage, and realize that this is a very odd scenario to be in. I nose pinch. Can't breath entirely, but can breathe somewhat. Am worried about leaping from the vehicle if it really isn't a dream.
      Can't remember how I prove it to myself, but the next thing I know I am waving goodbye to my dad, telling him to be careful. I then leap from the vehicle. I try flying a bit, and can't, so I settle on climbing a tree near me. It is basically just a tall, bent over trunk, with no branches. I wrap my arms around it and lift myself into the air. It is hard work (harder than it should be!) but I am able to climb much better than in real life. I get a pretty good distance up befor dropping to the ground. The dream begins to fade, so I strip off my gloves (wtf) and begin rubbing my hands against the asphalt to stabilize. Oops, the dream is fading out anyway.

      I "wake up," and am reading FryingMan's DJ. It is interactive, and the POV (1st, 2nd, 3rd) begins changing to indicate whether or not he was lucid. For some reason, this makes me think that perhaps I have not woken up at all, but am still dreaming. I nose pinch.Lucid. However, something catches my eyeand I lose lucidity before finallywaking up.

      After a short WBTB with wife (it's about 7 when I get up), I induce and return to sleep. Long semi-lucid. A psychiatrist is talking to me about my dreams, and investigating my dream recall and lucidity. She slowly turns into a very cute psychiatrist wearing glasses. She is mostly naked, and is arching her back very provocatively. For some reason I don't jump on her, but the dream continues. Next thing I know, I am in a boat house and being assailed by faceless men with boners. Yep. I have a pole-axe type weapon, and am fending them off. However, during the dream I have the distinct impression that none of this is real at all. I jump around the building, avoiding the water in the center, and chopping people up as I go. Don't catch me, you dicks!

      I manage to climb outside onto the roof of the boathouse. The roof is flimsy and made of plastic, and I feel that I might collapse it easily, or that it might topple over as I move towards the edge. I know if I can just jump into this water, I'll be OK. I leap in. The water feels amazingly real, and but it is totally dark beneath. I suddenly think, "It's a dream!" and open my WL eyes.
      I can see the room barely, and can also see my sleep mask, so am satisfied. I close my eyes and lie still. Eventually, my dream hands and arms settle back beside me, and another dream begins: some stage curtain draws back to reveal a cartoon singing chicken. The chicken is singing to itself. I watch, waiting for the dream to fully settle. Unfortunately, something distracts me and I wake up.

    11. The Huge Kayak

      by , 10-29-2014 at 07:54 PM
      The start off to this dream is weird. I woke up at about 3:00 for a WBTB. I did a puzzle game, on an electronic (probably should have gone on an electronic, never doing that again on a WBTB). After about 1/2 hour, I went back to bed. I could not fall asleep, no matter what I tried. Eventually as I was watching my HI (but I couldn't fall asleep?) A scene appeared. It was a river sort of thing, like a lazy river at a water park. My brain puts somethings into the river for me. Remember, at this point, I am still awake, just imagining all this. Around this point, I drifted off to sleep, still sort of aware that I was dreaming. Like it was in the back of my mind and I didn't really care. I didn't go to sleep with the intention of having a lucid dream, just of being able to actually fall asleep. In the dream, I go over to a bend in the lazy river. There is a small alcove behind the wall. Inside of the alcove, is a small underwater sand castle. With me is a small hermit crab. He jumps into the alcove, but latches onto my finger so that I don't lose track of him. There are a lot of hermit crabs that look just like him at the bottom. I go back out into the lazy river. I ride the giant kayak that my brothers have alway to a huge wave pool/bay. The waves are too large so I take over the kayak from my brothers. My mom keeps telling me to stay on the lake. (She is on a different boat with my dad)I almost hit some other people that are on another kayak. I am sitting at the back of the kayak. Whenever a wave would come, the kayak would almost tip. The front end has purple on it. Eventually, I fall off. As the waves push me back to shore, I see my sister and my little brother in the water near the shore. Floating in the water near my brother are his glasses. He yells to me to pick them up as I go past. I try, but miss them. He starts getting mad at me. The dream ends.

    12. Getting Her Number, Almost Lucid

      by , 10-24-2014 at 11:23 AM (One Up Seeker)
      1. I was in the mall with a few friends and we were just chilling. As we walked into the food court and looked around for a good place to eat, I saw Naomi. She looked absolutely gorgeous, as always, and I knew from the night before that I told my friend I was going to get her number. I knew what I had to do now, so I walked over to Naomi. Once I got over to her I talked to her for a few minutes, and it was going good. She was with a few other people, but that didnt bother me. Once we really got into the conversation and I was about to get the digits she said, "I really don't like texting, its just stupid." There was a reason behind why she said it in the conversation, but I forgot what brought it up.
      Now I became aware of the fact that even when I did get her number, I would be calling her alot more than texting, and I was cool with that. Suddenly my parents texted me telling me that we were leaving(What? I wasn't even hanging with them). I knew I had to leave so I decided that it was now time to put in the work. "Hey Naomi, give me your number, I really like to talk to later" I told her. Of course though it sounded no where near as creepy as it does here. She told me something about how she couldn't or something along those lines. It wasn't a rejection but more of like she actually couldn't give me her cell.
      I then told her that I'd talk to her later and walked away, for now. I picked up a bite to eat while I was away from her and as I was going to get a seat in the seating area I saw her again, but I wanted to wait a bit before trying again, or for that fact at all. On the way walking to my seat, I saw my mom and dad sitting in a booth in the same area and they were telling me to go back to Naomi now and get her number. I motioned to them it wasn't a good time. At this, I sat down in my seat and stared to eat. I was eating I looked up from my table and saw my parents staring at Naomi from their seats, like a dead stare. It was as though they were stalking her or something.
      After I finished my food I got up, threw away my trash in the trashcan, and then went back to Naomi to see "What was up". When I saw her she was sitting by herself at a table, and she looked to be a bit sad. I went up to her and asked what was up(<<see what I did there). She told me why she was sad, I forgot most of the conversation though. I then told her, "Well hey, give me your number and we can talk about it later." I know this sounds pretty bad lol, but it sounded so much better in the dream, like not awkward at all. I pulled out my phone and Naomi gave me her number. "Yes! I finally got it!" I thought to myself.

      2. I was in my room and had just "woken up" and was now sitting up in my bed with my lights on. I picked up my phone which was to the right of me and turned it on. Immediately I looked at the time and saw that it was "1:83 a.m". When I saw this I was stunned, "What, that's impossible." I looked away from my phone and looked back. Now I saw "1:83 p.m". This made more sense to me, so I kind of didn't care anymore. But now I looked at my digital clock, and it matched the time on my phone. I would've became lucid if I realized that "1:83" wasn't a time at all.
    13. Mild (MILD?) Frustration

      by , 08-11-2014 at 06:03 PM (Threecat's Dreamtime)
      Last night felt distinctly lucid twice only to lose the dream upon reentry.

      In the first, I am in a bedroom, and having a discussion on lucid dreaming (while lucid).In hypnopomia, I even review the dream so as not to lose it (if I had had my shit together, I would have simply awoken and recorded the dream). Once fully awake, the dream memory vaporizes in front of me, more or less.

      Probably one of the first two dreams of the night, which historically are not great moments for dream recall for me. However, I think I have been lazy with recall per se, as I have been experiencing lots of day residue and "garbage" dreams that I have neglected to record in any great detail. Maybe this is the impetus I need to get back into recording my dreams in detail.

      Second dream: I am lucid and attempting to complete the tasks of the month, but don't remember scenery or whether or not I succeed at any of the tasks, or indeed even remember them correctly. Gab has developed software to assist dreamers while they are still dreaming, and to publish their attempts at the TotM. She publishes mine (in a tiny newspaper), describing my attempt.

      The dream drifts into a
      semi-lucid where I am running a foot race through an apartment complex (maybe my old digs) with a WL friend. He is extremely fast, and while I am able to manipulate the dream to make myself faster than I normally am, he is still beating me. We are running at night alongside a chainlink fence, and there are several hairpin turns in the grass. I epicly jump over the fence and into some undergrowth, but am still daunted by how fast my opponent is. I attribute this in dream to his long legs.

      Finally, I am able to use some of my minions (apparently I had minions) to help me cheat. One of them grabs my WL friend through the fence while I am able to take off and finish the race. However, my awareness stays with my friend and is in fact shifted into that of my minion. At the moment when I feel I must release him (as he's fighting me the whole time) another minion grabs him, my awareness shifts into that minion, and then I turn mine and his hands into stone (I am grabbing him by the wrists). During all of this I more or less feel that I am dreaming, but just don't "get" it.


      I tried a different method of MILD than what I am used to, and think I will continue the experiment tonight. I will keep you all updated

    14. "Dreamer teaches me her secrets"; "16 and lucid!"; "False awakenings and dream commentary!"

      by , 07-30-2014 at 08:43 PM (Threecat's Dreamtime)
      Fragment 1 ,12:33 AM: Dreamer is teaching me how to WILD. A neat SL where I am "aware" that I am in a NLD. Driving in a car, with brightly-colored backgrounds to the environment. Dreamer's main advice seems to be relax and have fun. Dog bark and shout in WL from the street wake me up and out of this. Believe Xanous here as well, but not sure.

      Fragments 2, 5:28 AM: Dreamer is teaching the whole DV community how to WBTB and incubate dreams. At some point I am nervous about my dream practice, but then decide that whatever I am doing is probably OK. More here but C/R.

      Lucid, 8:45 AM: I am walking between classes back in high school. I am outside, and walking along a sidewalk outside. I glance at my wristwatch and realize it is 6:40 pm. I am confused, as I am not sure how it can be 6:40 at night while I am at school. I nose pinch and can breathe. I become lucid, but do not fully understand what is going on. I am under the impression that my WL body is asleep somewhere on campus (maybe I took a nap somewhere?) and that I will be late for class if I don't wake up. I try to wake up a few times (by "opening my eyes") and fail. I am surprised, b/c this has not failed me in the past.

      Before I try to wake up, though, I decide to enjoy the dream a bit. I attempt to fly, and C/R whether or not I manage to do so. However, I do climb up a metal radio tower of sorts, and consciously make my body lighter in order to pull myself through the air and not damage the thing, fragile pieces of tower. In dream, I think I am adjusting gravity, lol. I try very hard to remember where I have fallen asleep, or what waking life looks like at the moment, but cannot.


      FA: I "awake" from this dream into a world more populated with DCs, but same landscape. I am no longer a student at the school but am now a teacher (wtf?). I hear a PA announcement telling me to come to the dean's office. I follow, and am met by someone who demands to know where I have been. I explain that I fell asleep "up in some damned tower" and am told my picture needs to be taken. A ceremony is going on, and I am asked to partake in it. A special, heavy jacket is placed on my shoulders. However, the people involved soon find out I am not a Christian and take the jacket back! I don't care though and just wander off. Another announcement comes over the PA and says employees cannot leave until 4:30 pm.

      Fragment 3: My stepfather taking family out to eat. My mom narrates this dream, explaining how he has exerted control over us using his wealth and influence (). He says something nasty to me, but I do not respond, as I am conscious of eating the roast beef dinner he has just paid for.

      Fragment 4: A man is teaching children to LD. He explains that a good reality check for children to do is to stop breathing, and wait for a superhero to rescue them. He advises parents to keep a good watch on their child though, as sometimes a superhero will not arrive and the child may die. He demonstrates by saving a child who is currently not breathing (and obviously not being rescued via dream!).

    15. 9th of June 2014.

      by , 06-09-2014 at 06:44 PM
      Bedtime: 12.PM Waketime: 11:AM.

      Preparation: The normal (see DJ entry 1)

      Dream 1:Me and my little brother were in some kind of large house, and i had recently been given a cat. The reason for this was because i for some reason had to prove my responsibility, and that i could take care of things. I think me and my little brother then walk to a different house, or most likely a different part of the large house. My little brother brings the cat, and we stay there for some time playing with the cat. After we leave the house, i ask my brother where the cat is. Darn, he forgot. I rage at him for a little while and there my memory cuts.

      Dream 2: In a large amazon-like environment, me and and ome my friends find a snowscooter and race down a snow-clad hill that we somehow found. We take turns being the steerer, as there is no brake or engine. We drive past a crowded area in the snow where children and people are playing. Accidentially we drive off a cliff. I cant remember if i woke up here, or if i actually didn't fall, but just went off the tracks.

      Dream 3: This was the clearest dream out of the three, and the only one where i very faintly seem to remember i was lucid. In the same environement as the first dream, my brother (could have been a different DC) seems to be having a bit off a fight with some random people chillig inside a crashed plane of the mountains. He cuffs his arm to mine, and asks me if i dare to dangle off the side of the mountain. There is a little cut here where i dont remember anything.
      I then encounter one of my other friends, he is injured and needs blood. This is where i realize i'm in a game, because i try to find out what bloodtype i am by using the menu. What i did most in this dream however, was being a smite/dota-like character running around and killing mobs to level up with my friend (we didn't kill many however as i woke up soon after).

      Other things i did, but can't remember when/which of the dreams it happened in is:
      -Shoot a bazooka at a tanks that was FAR away, missed every shot.
      Climb around the beautiful mountain inspired by the norwegian place, engevika. I was very far up, and there was a vertical drop of a few hundred feet down. I know i was lucid in this scene because i remember myself thinking:''This is a dream, i can survive this fall''. For some reason (maybe i lost lucidity) i didn't jump.
      -Stared at a fabolous ass (sorry Linn)
      -Go through a type of ''gear up'' corridor where we prepared for battle?
      -Traversed the jungle with my friends (seem to remember it was a part of a game, much like capture the flag in f.eks battlefield).
      -Saw one of my female friends fail at parachuting down the mountainside.


      Explanations/descriptions: Mountain: The mountain was absoloutely beautiful, and was had a long, vertical drop if you were to run straight ahead. If you went left or right however, you could get down to the jungle. It was inspired i think by engevika and hvaler in norway, just much larger. It seems there was a base inside the mountain where you could gear up fpr battle in the jungle below. There was also a plane (could be car) that was crashed into the mountain, you could go inside. The mountains were also shaped like a ton of squares forced together, making it hard and interesting to climb around on.

      Jungle: Here me and my friend farmed a few mobs to level up our dota/smite characters. It was lush, green and head vines that snirkled over the forestground. It had broad pathways through it, making it easy to traverse. There seemed to also be some temples of sort, that me and my friends explored. It had tall trees, and many ups and downs.Very fun to explore.

      The house: In dream one; It was large, and i think it had white walls. My father was on here, and though i think he was the one that gave me the cat, i'm not sure. The other part of the house, where i lost the cat definately had white walls, and some chars. The walls were also strangely deformed, i think.

      The snowy place/hill: Very basic, had extreme drops downwards, not fit for anyone to go down (even though kids were playing at the bottom of the hill. It was nice, and went down for a VERY long time. At the bottom i think i saw lake, there were few trees that were covered in snow as well.
