I was a prisoner in this castle, the dream started with plotting an escape with another prisoner. We ran out of the castle and across these thin stone blocks suspended above a ravine, as we stepped on the thin stone blocks they began to crack so standing on them for too long wasn't an option. We ran across them as quickly as possible until we came to a more solid stone block where we planned what to do next.

Nearby there was this machine of sorts spinning at high speed consistently. We figured that if we managed to jump on this machine we could launch ourselves from it up and over the castle walls. Things turned slightly insane here. We leapt on the machine and propelled ourselves, one at a time, to try and get over the wall. With each failed attempt we seemed to reset back to the beginning and we were able to try again.

Soon enough, I managed to land on the castle walls and I thought it'd be a simple task of just hopping over the other side, but there was another wall preventing me from doing so on this end. To get to the other end of the castle wall involved trying to get through a blockade of heavy stones that were swinging relentlessly back and forth across it.

I jumped back over the edge of the wall and rappelled along the side. After almost getting hit by the swinging stones, I made it across to the other side. I was cheering at the prisoner who was with me, who was still failing at his attempts to get up here. Little did I know the side of the wall that I rappelled to was actually a guard tower.

I was re-captured and then I had a scene change. Next thing I know I'm again with the other prisoner who I was trying to escape with, performing kitchen duty. We apparently hadn't eaten for days and we were both starving so we sneakily stole some of the leftover food and took it back to our room. To our surprise, after finishing our shift the head of the kitchen staff praised us for our good work and handed us a huge plate of food as thanks. We rapidly tried to hide the stolen food as the guy brought the food into our room and we somehow got away with it.

Another scene change to after we finished eating, and I noticed that with the food we got given was a Christmas Cracker, despite it not being Christmas. I pulled it open regardless just to see what was inside. At this point my roommate left and the whole scene seemed to shift from the castle prison room area to a room in my house. I pulled out a pair of green sunglasses from the Christmas Cracker and decided I wanted to try them on.

I looked in a nearby mirror and took off my normal eyeglasses, then looked in the mirror again and I was completely confused when I could still see perfectly and the glasses were still on my face. I held my hand up and touched the area of my face where my glasses were supposed to be and felt nothing. I rubbed it a bit to make sure and when I took my hand away it looked as if I had "erased" an area of the glasses. I'm completely spun out and I have no idea what's happening.

I held my hands up and finally realised that it was a dream after seeing that I have short, stubby fingers. I recall going to sleep after attempting a WILD despite the ridiculously long dream that occurred before this. I walk into a nearby bedroom in my house, all of the bedsheets are on the floor and for some reason my friend is making the bed. The dream is ridiculously vivid here and I have to remind myself it's a dream.

I decide to talk to my friend, as conversations in my dreams are quite rare. I say "Hey", and without once looking at me my friend says "You know you aren't awake yet? I want to make your bed." -- This shocks me, but I continue the conversation with "I know, I'm in a lucid dream."

Some more conversation later that I don't really recall, only that my friend is really cold towards me and also seems to be incredibly witty, a personality that she doesn't share in real life. I'm interested by how different the dream personality is.

I decide to check out my bedroom, I thought that maybe I would be able to see myself sleeping if my dream character stated that I wasn't awake yet. I opened the door and sure enough, there I am laying there. It was really surreal and I wasn't quite sure what to make of it. The copy of me laying down in the bed opens his eyes and starts staring at me, before lifting himself up into a sitting position. We're both staring at each other now and I have no idea what's really happening, I don't completely understand how I could be in two places at once.

The dream starts to become fuzzy here, I think we start some brief conversation and I walk up to him but at one point I think I close my eyes for some reason and when I open them again I'm awake and laying in bed.

I lay still for a few minutes, trying to re-enter the dream with DEILD and while I feel the vibrations sweep over me I don't seem to be able to re-enter. I think because of my head being all over the place trying to figure out what just happened, or maybe because it was so late into my sleep cycle that I couldn't fall asleep again that easily.

This is a past dream i had long ago,
I was in a city, looked much like New York.
Everything was destroyed and smoking, a complete disaster, i see zombies feeding on people and what not.
After observing the place for a minute, i realize.. i have a gun in my hand, my clothes ripped up, dirty, tattered.. my arms scratched, no memory of how that happened.
A zombie sees me and tackles me but i grab him and throw him aside, then shoot him. Another zombie runs towards me, and i aim my gun at him, he quickly knocks it out of my hand and i fall down, the zombie gets on me and tries eating my face but i held him back like leonidas did to that big Persian in 300. As he tried biting my face off, i yelled and that was the end of the dream, VERY SHORT, SLIGHTLY BADASS, A BIT SCARY.

I was hanging with a friend, let's call them "M". For some reason there had been an event which caused M to lose all memories of the last few years, wiping all knowledge of who I and her other friends were.

M was going slightly crazy, she was getting all the Christmas decorations out in May and setting them all up in her house, me and the other people there were practically yelling at her wondering why she was preparing for Christmas in May, but she didn't seem to care. All she questioned was who we were, what we were doing in her house and what business it was of ours.

We continually got frustrated while she was running around the house finding places for all these Christmas decorations, as more were placed we decided to go along with the Christmas in May idea, but request that she at leasts follows our traditions. She stops everything that she's doing and stares at us before saying, "You tell me you're my friends, yet there is no evidence of that... why should I follow traditions that I don't even know?"

One of my other friends, "E", gets upset. She runs out of the house and M huffs and gets back to putting up the Christmas decorations. Soon everyone else besides me leaves, trying to look for E and comfort her.

That's when the entire dream kind of... resets. It was almost like a false awakening but the dream just bounced right back to the beginning of where it started, only this time, it was just me and M. I start questioning the reality of the situation and before I know it, I'm lucid.

I hold my hand out and inspect the 8 fingers I have, before M turns around and starts laughing manically. At this point I don't think I truly had time to understand what it meant to be in a dream, I was maybe at Layer 2 lucidity. I panic because of how evil M is sounding and try to back away and walk through the wall to escape, only the wall remains solid.

M runs for me, leaping on top of me and a knife appears in her hand. I try my best to will her out of existence, or will myself to another place, but the best I can do it repel her off of me but she just runs back up with the knife in hand and starts stabbing my arm.

I give up on lucid powers and somehow manage to grab the knife from her hand and try stabbing her. She starts laughing again as I thrust the knife down but it just bends as if it was plastic, no damage was made to her at all. In my shock, she gets the knife back off me and starts stabbing again.

The pain shooting through my arm is so realistic and I can't seem to focus on anything. I close my eyes and will myself to be somewhere else.

The pain stops, I open my eyes and I'm back in the waking world.

I was at my school and i realised i was lucid, instantly i got excited i tried rubbing my hands together to calm me down this failed, so i ran it worked for about 10 seconds and i had to spin again, i ran downstairs and out of the building, two men with bald heads in black suits were chasing me, then i woke up.
Dream Duration: Aprrox 40 Seconds

Couldn't remember much. But here's what I got from last night.
I was in my house, lying on the couch where I fell asleep the night before (though of course, I didn't realize I was asleep). I sat up and looked around. Everything looked the same, except for a random dresser sitting over by the couch. I crawled over and peered over the side of the couch to the floor, only to see my friend Haley laying down there, mumbling something about her cousin knowing French. I said hello, and she murmured a hello back, only to continue rambling on about her cousin knowing French. I heard a noise and looked over towards the living room to see my uncle, aunt, and cousins all walk in. I didn't question why they were there. I just said, "Oh. Okay."
I got up and went to talk to them.
And sadly, I don't remember the rest, but I woke up shortly after. I'm really happy Spring Break will be here soon, as it'll give me plenty of days to improve my dream recall and lucidity.

This dream began in my old neighborhood in New Jersey.

It was extremely foggy but it was also daytime. I was standing in the street in front of my house. Suddenly, in the distance, I see a figure of someone riding a bike. So I yell "Julian?" The figure comes into focus and it is my friend, Julian, with one arm controlling the bike and the other outstretched away from him. He comes in fast and clothes-lines me.

I flinch and wake up.

I was lucid... I think, and I did something, but I can't remember. I'm pretty sure I woke up from excitement.

I figured I should get my DJ started now, as I had quite a few LD's last night (5 I think, but I only really remember two of them).

Here is the first one of them - my third LD after joining this site.

I was standing in front of a huge university-like building, it looked very old yet the architecture and the design were very well thought out.
I realized that it looked like something from a game I knew, and did a nose-plug RC, all this resulted in me becoming lucid.

I remembered about dream-stabilization (I forgot doing that in the first two LDs), so I looked around and saw a huge garden, in which I was standing, placed in front of the building.
I looked up at the building and examined it closer, it was sort of U-shaped, with a huge spire in the center. It had a large round window on the spire, which almost made it resemble that of a church.
I knelt down and felt the grass between my fingers, which still looking around at the garden and the sky. I remember being amazed at how real it all seemed - the vividness was so much better than my previous dreams.
After stabilizing, I figured I would try to summon up a DC, since I couldn't see anyone around.

I created a strong intent, that when I turned around a DC would be there. I was really happy when it succeeded, and I found an asian-looking girl behind me.
I asked how old she was, and she told me that she was five years old. I stood rather perplexed, as it was obvious she wasn't five. She was almost as tall as me.
I explained my confusion to her, and asked her how old she really was.
This time she said she was 23, which seemed very likely - she also explained that the previous answer was based on a joke, originally in Chinese but she had tried to transfer it to English.
I didn't really see how something like that would be funny in any language, but I started comparing it to the Japanese I know - which made me lose awareness of the surroundings and ultimately wake up.

This dream was about 2 hours into my sleep, so it was pretty short, I was In battlefield 3, and my teamates and i are on top of a roof, theres abunch of helicopters etc. chasing us. One of the helicopters misses us and goes down into the water, at this point, things started getting wierd, and all my teamates were gone with the exception of one. He wanted to prove that he could fly the bike by himself, as there was a parked non-motor bicycle on the roof with us but he failed and left. I take the bike and start to pedal really fast and let myself gently off the roof, I started gliding down and in the next moment, I was in my neighbourhood gliding gently down on a bike, at this point I questioned the dream and thought "If I'm doing this with a bike, I don;t need it, I can just fly, I'm dreaming!! So I reach the ground and stabilize as well as reality check, I look around the neighbourhood and the dream wasn't super clear or stabilized, but I started running towards my school, and I see a guy jogging down the street and I yell at him, and start to fly but I only get a couple feet in the air, and the dream ended but I stayed still to DEILD but either it didn't work or I fell back into a non-lucid (pretty sure its the first one, cuz this was only 2 hours into my sleep)

Type: DILD

before i start, I wanted to make a dream journal that showed the earliest stages of LD, so that people who had succeeded once wouldn't give up, because it takes time to get good

This dream i had a lucky break. I dreamed I was reading about lucid dreaming on my iPad (). As I scrolled up and down the page, the words started to change. Perplexed, i stood up and preformed the breath through nose reality check. and it worked! as excited as I was, i forgot to stabilize the dream. i went to my window and noticed a garden that wasn't actually outside my real house. I closed the blinds and willed there to be a desert when I re-opened them. When I did, there was a different garden outside of my house. then i sneezed, and a gallon of snot came out of my nose, and I woke up.

It was in the time of ancient egypt (I'd never realy thought about that since 6th grade), there was a peasant and a pharaoh, I was watching from above, completely disembodied eyes. We were in a mud-brick hall, the ceiling raised about 40 feet. I could hear muffled talking going between the two, I moved closer. It was like a picture from a computer, as I zoomed in, there was less detail. The outlines got bigger and everything. I was suddenly on their side, at ground level. I could make out some words, but I forget most of them, then the peasant said:
"No, I cannot trust you with two hands full,"
(This of course made no sense and then I woke up)

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)

im in my room and i just took out my bag of weed. im getting ready to smoke when my dad knocks on the door so I hide my liter and hitter. he walks in and says something. hes about to leave when he gives me a stern look and looks at something behind me. I turn around to see that i left my bag of weed out on my bed. I put on my O face and then woke up.


notes: little bit high, took some melatonin and xanex

Last night (this morning) i had 3 different lucids, but each one lasted only like 5 seconds probably because i was stupid and did no stabilzation on 2 of them

Dream 1: I was sitting on my couch already lucid. I looked around, noticed i was in what seemed like my living room, but there were no doors. I noticed the TV was on, but before i could see what was on, I woke up.

Dream 2: I was laying in my bed, not really doing anything, and did a random reality check. I plugged my nose and tried to breath in.At first it seemed like i could breath, but when i tried it a second time, it didn't work. Then, i checked my hands. All fingers, no deformities, so i figured maybe i wasn't dreaming. Just to be 100% sure, i plugged my nose again and tried to breath. This time i was sure i was dreaming. However, my eyes started to close. I rubbed my hands to try to stabalize the dream, and it seemed to work. Then I tried to slowly open my eyes so that i wouldn't wake up, but unfortunately, it didn't work and i woke up.

Dream 3: I had just done a DEILD and was pretty sure i was in a dream. I plugged my nose, and i could breath! but before i could even think of what to do or even stablize the dream, it started to fade and I woke up. Damn, not having any luck today

Dream

I was walking home from school and see some of my friends I say "Hey" and he says "Sup" then I see a 2 girls from school one I just grab and hold. Which is wierd because I don't think she's attractive but by this point I'm not Lucid. Then my mate pops out of a car (another dream sign) that he can't drive. He was waering a jacket that looked like someone had painted on it.

Then some guy I saw from before was getting rude to me (like he used to in real life) he was saying some stuff that I didin't like he knows a lot of guys so I just walked off.

Then I was thinking as I walked down my street "Why am I coming from school if it's Saturday?" Now I'm Lucid, now I'm in buisiness. So the first thing I was look up and the sky was so clear it was unbelievable. The first thing I did was go back and find that boy and fight him. With Bo Staffs he had a friend there who is also my friend but he was just backing the other guy so I fought both of them.

I shot a red chidori (like a hadouken) from my hand and hit the other guy (I need to improve my LD control) then I start parrying and striking, it was really cool. It was like when Neo pulled out the post and fought all the Smiths in Matrix Reloaded. Anyway I keep fighting and the dream fades.
