    1. Drunk Dream

      by , 10-05-2011 at 12:39 PM
      I was in a a party which was taking place in a large room which resembled the kitchen of my friend's house where we party in real life. The dream was fairly dark and dimly lit. In this dream I was also very drunk.

      There was a small cupboard with two compartments in the corner of the room where I was sat. For some reason I sat in the cupboard for a while. There was a bottle of alcohol in there which I drank. There were also some snakes and some toad-like creatures. They looked like Toads but they had sharp little beaks - almost like a turtle. The snakes and Toads were hunting one another. My friend, Fred, who was there, found them extremely interesting.

      When I was back in the main room I noticed that an old friend, Aiden, was sat just along from the cupboard. As I walked past, he threw something at me and I threatened him as a response. I sat down near him and noticed there were stacks of playing cards. I was shuffling through some. There were Legend of Zelda themed one's in there also. Aiden picked up some and threw them, one at a time, against the wall. They stuck in a sort of colarge way.

      I got up and walked around a bit. At this point I could feel myself sobering up. Someone who I thought was my partner came into the room and I asked her if there was any more alcohol. But it turned out to be someone I didn't know. My partner came in for real after that.

      Back in the main room, there was a guy asking where his alcohol, that he had hidden in the cupboard, had gone. I sat down and kept quiet. Then another friend, Eddie, asked the guy if he wanted some of his Toffee-Cider instead. I turned to Eddie and asked if I could have some.
    2. Snakes (8/26)

      by , 09-17-2011 at 02:34 PM
      I had a dream of snakes being everywhere. They were white and red on the inside but dull green on the outside. They were able to shed out of their skin. i was in the forest filled with those red and white snakes. i was actually near a forest. there were a number amount of snakes on the ground. I walked right in the middle of their den without noticing them. then i looked down and saw one. i started pacing away when i saw even more. i started daring, and even jumping over some of them, when my alarm clock woke me up.
    3. Bizarre Shows at DCA, Getting Lost, and Flying

      by , 09-11-2011 at 05:31 PM (The Lab Notebook)
      Non-lucid, Possibly lucid?, Lucid, [Commentary made while awake]

      I'm trying to drive to a destination, and I go through an intersection and end up on a winding road that leads down the side of a mountain to a lake. I recheck my directions and realize that I was supposed to turn right at that last intersection. I start retracing my route and going back up the hill.

      I'm at an outdoor amphitheater in Disney California Adventure. I'm way in the back of the amphitheater area, on some bleachers, watching a stage show. There is a bizarre structure on the horizon as you're looking at the stage; it looks like a pyramid with the points sticking out in a bunch of different directions, like what you would see if you put a normal pyramid in the center of a spherical structure with mirrors on all the inside surfaces. The show starts out with red fireworks that shoot out from the vicinity of this structure. The first round explodes in the sky above and to the right of the audience, the second arcs down to and explodes on the round, concrete slab of a second amphitheater behind and to the right of the audience, and the third explodes just above the audience's heads. I'm afraid that I'm going to catch on fire, but I don't.

      On stage, there's some sort of announcement from a villainous character in the show that we need to prepare to be tortured. He also says that all the women should stay in the main viewing area, while all the men should move to the building at the back of the theater with the indoor concession and souvenir stands. They all do so. Then, large snakes appear throughout the viewing area. One is close enough to me to touch me with the end of its tail, which I know is poisonous
      [um, what?]. It's very long and all coiled around on top of itself. I visually pick out its head and tail from among the mass, and try to avoid them as I pick it up and attempt to toss it away from me. This doesn't work. It wraps itself around my waist and legs, binding me in place. I'm scared, but I resign myself to it when I realize that I can't get it off and that it's just a part of the show anyway.

      After the show, which felt like it had lasted about 50 minutes, I make my way down to the stage. One of my college girlfriends is getting married here at Disney California Adventure. Several of the other girls from our group are bridesmaids, and they're all wearing long, grayish-white dresses with Disney vacation scenes on them. Two of them are pregnant, including EB. I'm here to attend the wedding, too, but I don't talk to any of them. When the wedding party starts taking pictures, I walk back to the concession and souvenir building at the back of the amphitheater.

      My walk there takes me along a gently-curving grass path marked with steppingstones with the shapes of different Disney character heads on them. This path marks the edge of the amphitheater seating area. When I get into the concession and souvenir building, I talk to one of the men who was watching the show. He says the boys had their own torture: during the entire time the show was going on, they were all held in one area and none of them were allowed to pee. I tell him that the free T-shirts can be picked up at the Great American Icee stand, over there.

      The dream I've been having fades to black
      [it may have been the one above, or a different one, I'm not quite sure]. When it does, I realize exactly what's going on, close my eyes, and think, When I open my eyes, I will be back in another dream. I open them, and I'm back at the same amphitheater, but the scenario is different.

      [I'm not 100% sure I was lucid for this next part, though.] This time, there are a whole bunch of patriotic greeting cards in boxes at the back. Everyone there has been making them to send to the families of military members and people who died in the 9/11 attacks. Some people are still making them. I see that one lady in the back row has a plate full of lasagna, and take a bite with a fork. She tells me not to eat the lasagna, that it's for the people being honored.

      Another show starts in the amphitheater. As it starts, people in front of me stand up, which forces me to stand up, too. I talk with the family to my left. They ask me about a “magic wand” that can be used to uncover secrets and extra content in the park. I point out one that a Cast Member down on a walkway that we can see from our seats is using. It looks a lot like a big, black metal detector, with a bunch of black tubes on top that form a Mickey head shape in the center. It detects sensors embedded in the ground and plays a sound when it finds them. The family climbs up onto the roof of the pagoda structure covering the back of the stands to get a better view of the stage, which is easy to do. I say, “Hey! That's rude!” but follow them up there anyway.


      [Later, I had another dream in which I was definitely lucid, but I don't remember how it started or very many of the details. Here's what I do remember:]

      I'm in an indoor environment, just walking around and admiring the scenery. I know none of this is real and acknowledge that fact in my mind, but I deeply appreciate how the scenery and the daylight illuminating it look completely real.

      When I get to the top floor of the building I'm in, I attempt to fly through the ceiling, but it doesn't work. I just bump into the ceiling, which is completely solid to me. It's a stucco ceiling.

      I'm flying around above a city, observing it from the air. Another female dream character
      [no one I know in real life] is flying with me. I take it slow, finding that I have full control over my speed and direction, but not wanting to do any more than relax and take it all in. I increase my altitude, and the other girl follows. We talk while flying. [I don't remember about what.]

    5. 23rd Shared Dreaming Attempt - Vesterguard's Dream

      by , 08-27-2011 at 08:25 AM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Vesterguard's Dream(s)

      non-lucid - Notes - lucid

      27-08-11 Lying in a bed looking up seeing a completely black lizard crawling down towards me. I try and shake it away, but it lands in the back and I become a bit frightened. Not scared, more like you would fear a bee or wasp.

      Besides I don't want to crush it accidentally while lying in bed. I stand up and shake my bed sheets but I can't seem to find it. There are two pairs of socks lying in the bed and I wonder if it has gone in there.


      I am in a garden at a picnic table talking to some people. There are maybe 3-5 people there, one being a woman to my right I believe.

      The main part of the communication takes place between me and one of the twins across the table. He looks fairly young with a slight Hispanic look and with black curly hair to shoulder length or longer.

      We are talking about our dreams, I think I am talking about what happened in mine when he interrupts and says “It's all right she is not coming” to which I reply “Sorry, but that doesn't really mean anything to me”

      Note: I will here provide the details of previous dreams as this particular conversation actually led to recall of previous dreams that I had forgotten. I mean I have been awake and remembered nothing, but this conversation though only bringing up some parts of the other dreams made me remember them (weirdness!)

      1: I start talking about my Jesus dream, where Jesus sort of becomes Moses and the entire “lead my people out of Egypt” gets an action revamp.

      First off Jesus gets a leash on, and he is sort of trapped and his entire people is down a well (a deep and wide one of the kind). Jesus doesn't give a crap about anything but hitting the bottom of that well, so he jumps, the audience left with a slither of hope that he has attained enough power to survive the fall, as he doesn't seem to have mastered flight yet!

      He hits a couple of steps of the ladder leading up the well (some particular hits look like they would shatter vertebra of normal mortal men), but Jesus doesn't seem to care.

      Montage ending, he has led his people out and is now building a tree house with two nature experts for his people while I hold him on a leash and talk to a woman on the bottom.

      2: A dream about my Aunt. She is cleaning my room, while I am lying in the bed trying to fall asleep. I tell her that I have recently cleaned the place though I am sure that I haven't been as thorough as she is.

      I push the bed a bit from the wall to look for... ehhhm... embarrassing tissues =P and realise that it won't be all that bad seeing, as I am not actually sleeping in my bed.

      I get out and help her and in particular I am interested in why she is cleaning the plants. She has one of those spray flasks for cleaning and she splashes it all over the plants, and I am sure they won't appreciate all the chemicals in it. So I reason it must be just water.

      I go and start spraying another plant that has a fine layer of white material over the dirt. She gets annoyed and explains that this is called “Sundt” (Healthy) and shouldn't be watered all that much.

      3: A voice that asks if my grandmother has had her milk yet, she has. I decide to then take a bottle of chocolate milk out of the fridge. I see a half full one and decide to take that. The first bottle out is new, so I figure the angle must have been changed and I look again for the half full one and find it.

      I open it and drink it and it tastes sour, a bit like I would imagine urine to taste like. Besides that when I look at the lid it has transformed into a lid resembling a Ben and Jerry's lid.

      The conversation leads on up until the point where I logically feel (sounds absurd I know) the best sentence to use next would be “She is not coming”.

      Now I am standing on a bridge and the twins are on the ground still looking at me.

      I turn around and think “What the fuck!?” (Did I actually just relay my previous dreams, in a dream and discover myself still in one, by retelling the opening sentence of the conversation? DUDE!?!?)

      I check my hand and sure enough there are 6 fingers. Sweet.

      I look around and are taken aback by the beauty of the garden. There is a little stream running through the middle of it and up on the right hand side there are flower beds with yellow/orange flowers in them.

      Above that I see some white houses with dark brown wooden roof tops in the distance. The light would indicate that it is noon and sunny.

      I walk around for a bit stunned by the vividness of the garden and the tranquil atmosphere. I see a grey haired woman walking along the path next to the stream and I shout out for her (thinking of it it may have been a soundless shout).

      I do that for a while without getting a response so I decide to walk up to her. I get to a point where I have to cross the water stream in order to get to her side. I do this by walking across a low hanging branch of one of the trees, that somehow seems made for walking on.

      As I am walking along on this log, I think to myself “stalking your prey, just like a predator” which in hindsight is probably the stupidest thing I have ever thought.

      I go Darkside (capital D intended).

      I remember the shape shifting experience from my dream yesterday (Would seem like I am now more or less fully proficient at this, though I have had severe issues in the past) and shift into the shape of a giant snake as I am walking on the log.

      I remind myself that I wouldn't feel my arms in this shape and they sort of merge with the functioning of my mouth.

      And I strike.

      The poor woman knows not what hit her. I clasp my jaws around her midsection and take her to the ground, though I can't really feel any part of my body besides the mouth area I have one thought.

      “CRSUH!”

      I look to my right to see if I can see the rest of my body, but it is only vaguely visible and thinner than it would be considering a snake of my size.

      At this point I start thinking “Python” though I am not sure my body is strong enough to crush her (she is not moving at all btw). So I decide that it doesn't matter as the venom from my bite will finish her. Though I know Python's aren't venomous I decide that I am, as it is my dream.

      The feeling of having achieved “the kill” is of primal vicious joy almost sexual in nature. Writing this actually brings back the emotion fairly strongly, though I am utterly ashamed of my actions.

      In front of me is a real python. I am amazed at the markings on it's body and of how real it looks. It is however looking directly at me and it is not looking friendly.

      I pull my body back a bit and it strikes at me, but I am out of range.

      This might be strange to explain, but I will give it a shot.

      In one fluent motion, I jerk backwards, shifting from the python shape back into human form. My arms separate from the mouth so I am now holding the woman in my right hand, with whom I make a sweeping motion like a reverse golf swing against the head of the python. This forces the python back a bit, which is what I needed. At the apex of my swing I let go of the woman, flinging her a bit to my right and upwards (to the left from the Python's perspective) while I jump backwards taking off into flight.

      (seriously the move is more amazing than it sounds, and I didn't think about it consciously, which is proper fucked! It just came natural)

      The Python reacts as expected keeping it's eyes on the prize. In fact it doesn't even wait till she has landed but strikes in the air, catching the woman like a dog would a Frisbee and starts devouring immediately.

      I feel ashamed.

      I turn around so I can see where I am flying. I am not that far off ground and I let my hand drag over some of the garden. The area is now somewhat barren and dry in stark contrast to the previous lush feeling.

      Dark clouds are gathering around me and all the while all I can think is “Oh my god, darkside, darkside, darkside” “Why did I do that”. At the same time I try and calm myself down reminding myself to embrace the darkside we all carry within, though this aint my proudest moment.

      I manage to find some sort of “rest” concerning my actions, though I am not at all happy with what I did.

      I fly onwards up to a square hole in a brick wall. Police officers are waiting on the other side. I fly through the hole tilted 90 degrees and am greeted by the officers.

      They ask me what is in my mouth, and I realise I am chewing on something with a bit of grass or salad as well. “Nothing” I lie.
    6. 15th Shared Dreaming Attempt - Burke's Dream

      by , 08-08-2011 at 12:09 AM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Burke's Dream

      (Didn't get lucid last night but i did have an interesting dream, though i was on vacation and forgot to bring a DJ so i forgot like the first hald )

      I was driving in a valley surrounded by two mountains but the grass was cut short and clean all the way to the bottom of the hills. I noticed the town i was driving through seemed deserted, no people, no animals, nothing. I pulled into a moderate sized house and looked inside. There was nobody there, and on the door was a note saying something about snakes. I noticed that there were signs about snakes everywhere. Apparently most, if not, all, of the town has been wiped out by these venemous snakes.

      I continued down the road and pulled into yet another house. I walked around the back and entered through the back door. I saw a man and what looked like his daughter sitting at the table. I walked up to him and asked him to tach me about forensics (lol?). He said yes, but only if i killed the snakes. So i agreed.

      I walked out and drove down to another neighborhood, but this one was extremely nice. I stopped on a slight hill and pulled up on the side of the road and noticed two skinny little things crawling on the ground which i figured were the snakes. I got out and grabbed a stick to try and catch the snake with. When i got close to them they seemed more like worms than snakes. They were very skinny (no more than a quarter of an inch thick) and only like a foot long.

      I walked up behind on and attempted to push it down with the stick, but i missed it by like 5 feet . Then the snakes turned at me and started chasing me! I back up as quick as i could toward the road but it seemed to always catch up to me. It was only like 1 foot long but i seemed to think it could reach like 5 feet. Once the snake was like 2 feet away from me it launched itself at me and I woke up .

    7. Fragments for July 25 2011

      by , 07-27-2011 at 04:50 AM (Sailing the Noosphere)
      1. I find myself scuba diving with two attractive female archaeologists. As we explore a ruined site, I find a pot that appears to be made of intricately woven rattlesnake tails. I take out a green underwater Sharpie and label the artifact, adding the poetic tag "Here be dragons, the children of the gods." After I take the pot back up above water, my companions chide me for my extra writing.

      2. I go back to my high school over the summer to take a refresher course in Latin. My senior lounge has been moved to the basement and vastly upgraded, with plush seating and large flatscreen TVs. As I go to fetch my belongings from a locker, I find that they have been moved from where I left them; there's not enough locker capacity to go around, and I inadvertently took one from a freshman girl.

    9. 5/15/2011 - Lions, Disks, Snakes, and King

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

    10. Lucid Dream 214: The Land of Good and Evil

      by , 04-20-2011 at 11:28 PM (KingYoshi's Dream Journal...My World is Different)
      April 12, 2011
      Lucid Dream 214: The Land of Good and Evil
      Series: Land of Dreams, Episode 9
      WILD
      around 3:00am



      My cat woke me up by knocking a glass of my bedside table. I decided to attempt a WILD. I performed my technique and hit SP rather quickly. There was a wild rush of colors that swirled all around me. I felt my body start sliding all around my room. It soon stopped and I stood up in my dream.

      I walked over to the door, grabbed the handle, and immediately found myself in bed once again. I couldn't move at all and I knew it was only a false awakening. I finally managed to sit up a bit, but it felt like someone or something was hanging around my shoulders/neck. I heard it whispering, "UNC Tarheels.....UNC Tarheels...." I laughed and could hear my voice echoing as if it was through a microphone. I then said, "Hello" and it boomed and echoed as if I were announcer in a large stadium. I decided to not even fight the fact that I couldn't get out of bed and just try to have fun laying there.

      I started acting like an announcer and imagining the scene in front of me. I said, "He takes the inbounds pass...there are less than 20 seconds to go and UVA is down by 2 points...." Suddenly the scene formed in the place of my ceiling. My ceiling was like a large window to the basketball game. It didn't seem like a t.v. screen....it was much more real than that. It was really amazing actually. I kept commentating the game... "Zeglinski has it at the top of the key....he makes a move and blows by the defender....he kicks it out on the left wing to Evans....he pump fakes.....and passes out to Mike Scott at the top of the key....there are just seconds left and the big man pulls up...a three for the win...........its........GOOOOOOD, GOOOOOD!!!! MIKE SCOTT AT THE BUZZER TO KNOCK OFF NUMBER 1 NORTH CAROLINA!!!! WHAT AN AMAZING FINISH!!!!"

      It was awesome how the game played out exactly like I imagined and announced it. They weighted presence on my shoulders had apparently gotten angry and started jerking my upper body around a bit. I decided to fight back. While laying down, I started punching the air over my left shoulder and could feel my fist connecting with its face. It jerked and punched me in the side of the head, as I landed a few swift combos. I felt the presence's grip release from my shoulder and I began to float up into the air.

      I was now floating around in a very colorful cartoon-like void. The environment was anime/video game like and everything around me looked 2D. There was no footing below, just a dark sinister looking abyss. I continued to float around in this colorful world. I noticed that there were several objects floating in the distance. As I approached them, I noticed they were actually 2D people who were extremely bloated/inflated. They reminded me of King Dedede from the original Kirby's Adventures in the way they were bloated. They bounced up and down in rhythm and it was quite trippy. I could hear "Dango Daikazoku" playing in the background. It is the ending song from the anime, "Clannad." I floated around this colorful world for quite a long time. 2D rainbows would sprout up from the darkness below every now and then. The sun was completely 2D and seemed to twist back and forth in a playful manner. Every so often, a bouquet of balloons would float by me as well. The whole world look like it was a level out of Super Mario World 2.

      I looked down into the darkness below and I could see red eyes watching me. Every now and then I would see a hooded figure emerge from and submerge back down into the darkness. I noticed several red eyed wolf-like beasts below as well. They were looking up at me and snapping their vicious jaws. I had been using my arms to guide me around and decided to try and fall into the darkness below. I put my arms tight to my side and started to fall rapidly. The music changed to something much more sinister. I could hear violins hissing as the music intensified. I could now see skeletons, snakes, wolves, and dementor/reaper like creatures moving around in the darkness below. I spread my arms just before falling into the darkness and I stopped in mid-air. The wolves began snapping violently at my feet. They were just barely out of reach. I unzipped my pants and began pissing on all of the creatures below. They seemed to get angry and started snapping, grabbing, and throwing sharp objects at me (like scythes and sickles). I just dodged and kept pissing on them all. I suddenly became worried that I was pissing in real life. The dream became unstable and I allowed myself to wake up. Luckily, I was completely dry .


      Series Details
      In the dream series, "The Land of Dreams," I explore the depths of my subconscious. With no real goals in mind, I explore the creative lands and characters that come before me. Who will I meet?

    11. Less than great recall

      by , 03-01-2011 at 07:18 PM
      1. I'm looking into a terrarium full of all different creatures. I remember seeing snakes and hedgehogs, but there were lots more than that.

      2. I'm in a large warehouse, and I'm stealing something important. It's printed on a large piece of paper. I put it onto another large piece of paper and roll it into a tube. A man sees me do this, and chases me as I try to run for it. He tackles me and I struggle like crazy to get away.

      3. I'm in a hallway somewhere, and all these sexy thin models are wandering around in bathing suits. I look at my own substandard body and feel incredibly jealous.
    12. Snakes

      I remember jumping off a cliff, starting to fall, and then stopping myself by flying. I had been trying to get away from someone but I don’t remember who or what it was.

      The part that I remember most was where I was in a forest. I noticed that something was moving in the grass by the trees; I knew it was a snake. I followed it and saw that it was a big long snake. I automatically presumed that it was a garter snake even though it didn’t look like one. As I walked on I saw another snake which I think was black. This snake ended up wrapping around me but I got away and then I think I rode it on the water.

    13. August 3, 2010

      I took a CnG (http://lucidallnight.wordpress.com/2...oline-a-guide/) to jump start August and as usual, it worked well. Although my recall is still a little spotty, I remained pretty lucid and there were moments of hyper realism. So a pretty good one.

      Snakes. Why'd it have to be snakes? (dild)

      Don't remember the beginning too well. I remember my hands having more fingers than normal and I'm lucid.

      It is dark and I am in the alley. I see the moon and I throw my hands out, palm down and try to lower it and raise a sun. The moon begins to fall but it turns into a fireball. Sort of a sun but it just returns to a normal moon when I stop focusing on it. I try to throw fireballs/energy balls but it doesn't work. The dream is quite stable so I try for at least 2 minutes. I try vocal commands and focuses on the feeling of my hands but nothing happens.

      I fly around my neighborhood a little bit and it is sort of snowing a little. Nothing really catches my attention so I go into my neighbors house. There isn't even room to move. It is just sort of enclosed space. I lose vision but remain in the dream using tactile sensations.

      I am back in the alley and again I lose vision. I drop to the floor and feel the gravel. I re-enter the dream.

      I got into my neighbors house. NOT the normal neighbors' but a different house. I lose vision but I start destroying the place. Tossing chairs and tipping a dresser until the dream reforms and I am back in the alley.

      I fly up and see basement swing doors in my neighbors yard.



      I open them and climb down the ladder. It is sort of like a warehouse/old dusty tomb. There is dirt and some vines too. I see a snake coiled up and decide to go the other direction. More snakes. I sort of lose lucidity, just running through this place, stomping and killing any snakes in my way. I get bit at from the side by a snake and it feels just like a light bee sting. No big deal.

      I stop running and stabilize. I kick up sort dirt and just watch it swirl around. I pick up a stick and hit this bucket on a rope and watch it swing around as gravity takes its toll and it slows. That was cool.

      Then out of nowhere there is a naked women. No doubt inspired by a recent entry in Xel's journal. Things heat up and the dream is real vivid. It segues somehow into something else. I remember continuing through the warehouse place until I found Bruce Willis, who is mumbling about something that happens when we can no longer dream and we lose our hair. I ask “But what about death and God and all that?” and I wake up.

      I think there was more but don't remember. Anyways, I got to go.


      Frags:

      1. My grandfather has a computer that is held together by duct tape at a party. Kyle Gass is on drums. I eat a red snow cone and it is really good.

    14. The corn snake and giant lizards

      by , 02-07-2009 at 06:00 AM (Visions in the Dark)
      This is the first of two dreams I had on February 7th, 2009.


      I am following a narrow dirt path that goes down a steep hill. The path leads into a temperate forest that gets thicker the farther down the hill I go. I have to be careful and keep my balance otherwise I will lose my footing and fall forward. I cannot see the end of the path because it is so deep in the forest. I pass by some animals and birds, but I can no longer remember what kind of creatures they were, though I was able to recognize them in the dream.

      The path branches out several times to the left but I can neither see where those paths lead, nor seem to be able to voluntarily break off from the path I am on and follow one of those left leading path. My head, as I go down this steep forest hill, is always turned to the left. I am not afraid of anything, nor particularily curious, but I cannot stop and the farther down the hill I go an image of a snake I fear running into starts to appear in my mind. In the dream I keep refering to it as a "corn snake" and feel that I would be in great danger if I came across one.

      The farther down the hill I go and the deeper into the forest, I know the likely hood of coming across a "corn snake" increases. The path going downhill abrubtly comes to an end and turns suddenly to the left. A narrow clearing allows sunlight to hit the path through the trees. I can see a large light brown and grey snake slithering across the path on the egde of the clearing and I while I know that it was not a "corn sanke" I decide that I have had enough forest exploration and turn back. I can now freely move about and am no longer compelled to move in only one direction. When I reach the part of the path that starts back up the steep hill, a long dark brown snake with beige oval patterns on its back slithers out of the bush right behind me. This is the "corn snake" that I have been trying to avoid.

      Going back up the steep hill is much harder and takes much longer then going down, but I move as fast as I can to stay ahead of the "corn snake". I am full of anxiety and am sweating from the fear and the workout and in the dream I do not notice that the snake makes no threatening moves towards me. It stays just behind me and keeps up with my pace and acts like it doesn't even notice my presence.

      I make it to the top of the hill and out of the forest and look back to see that the "corn snake" has disappeared. I walk along the path, which widens to the size of a country road, and walk away from the forest. The landscape is not flat and there are many hills, but none so steep as the hill that went down into the forest. There are giant lizards, glowing orange and red and snorting fire balls exvery time they exhale, walking to and fro along the path and into the plains. They are about the size of horses and do not look friendly. I do want I can to avoid being seen by them which is to no avail because there is nothing to hide behind.

      Two of the giant lizards start towards me and I begin running. The lizards give chase, but they are cumbersome and slow and I am able to stay ahead of their flaming spit balls. I come to a crossroads, near which I find two rings. One is silver and is icy to the touch and the other is gold and has an oval design which is set with an orange stone. I put the rings on and instictively become aware that wearing the gold ring makes me invisible to the giant lizards, and wearing the silver ring gives me the power to freeze things. The left path circles round and follows along the edge of a thick deciduious forest which has recently had snowfall, and the right side path goes on into the hilly plains where many giant lizards have gathered.

      I start along the right path, thinking that I can just walk past the giant lizards unseen but the two that were following me start circling the crossroads, knowing that I am still there, even if they can't see me. The dream is blurry. Something about trying to freeze one of the lizard's breath or the lizard itself. Something else about making a run for the snowy deciduous forest? Attracting the attention several lizards? I eventually figure out I am temporarily visible when I am trying to use the ice ring and I know so because the orange gem in the gold ring glows while I'm visible?


      I cannot remember anything more from this dream.

    15. Rosso and the snakes.

      by , 10-14-2008 at 05:00 AM (Visions in the Dark)
      I am Rosso the Crimson and I am in some sort of army. For some reason a small group of soldiers including Shelke Rui, Vincent Valentine and I, defect and flee from the main army, which is situated in a sparse and barren, temperate forest. The rest of the soldiers in our group seem to be young adults and children.

      Vincent and I have the responsibility to lead the children away from that place but our ideas and ways of doing things are often at odds and we fall into verbal conflict, though most of the time I conceed to Vincent's way of doing things. I am kind of annoyed at first, but ultimately trust that he will not lead us astray. As we leave the main camp, and out of the forest, it begins to snow and our first night is tryng to find shelter where we can sleep. There are several large gaps underneath logs or holes in the ground large enough for humans to crawl into, but Vincent says to stay away from them because dangerous wild animals, like bears and foxes, might live there.

      We crest a hill and come across a children's playground where someone has thrown a blue tarp over some of the equipment, and while we could all easily fit under it, Vincent insists that we are not far enough away from the main army yet and we must continue. At this point in the dream, Vincent suddenly disappears and in his place is my brother Ryan.

      We do not have to walk far to discover that we are on an island or something and must turn back. We return to the playground and I lay down on the ground to sleep, with Shelke beside me, and hope the man who I still expect to be Vincent to lay down on my other side. Instead the man lays down on the other side of Shelke and I am shocked and angry to see that it is Ryan not Vincent.

      Despite being very tired I refuse to sleep and insist that Shelke switches spots with me because I am afraid that Ryan is going to sexually molest her. One of the other children soldiers cannot sleep and wanders around and finds a radio which he immediately turns on very loudly. I want the young boy to turn the radio off because I think it will give our position away but Ryan says it is fine and mocks my obvious apprehension. I convince the boy to turn the music down and everyone goes to sleep eventually, except for me.

      Suddenly I sit up because I have an overwhelming urge to find Vincent, without whom I do not feel secure. I walk around the playground area and see that while it is still cold, most of the snow has disappeared. I turn off the radio as I pass it by. All of the defected soldiers except for Shelke and Ryan follow me.

      One little girl freaks out because there is a tiny brown snake in the sand. I pick it up and throw it as far away as I can but quickly find another, and another and then many more. There is a reddish brown snake with a yellow rattle on its tail near the playground and the children flee because I positively identify it as a rattlesnake. Suddenly all of the snakes I can see are of the poisionous variety and as I walk back to my sleeping bag I am bitten several times, though I do not seem immediately affected by the poison, which feels hot and firely, almost electrical, coursing through my veins.

      I cannot wake Shelke and since I refused to leave her there I lay back down on my roll to sleep. More and more snakes appear, each is bigger than the last and they are increasingly a variety of bright colours. Soon there are so many of them that I cannot move without touching several of them and they turn and bite me, again with that fiery, electrical feeling shooting through my body. I feel myself becoming increasingly weak and disoriented, but I do not know if it is because I am exhausted or because of the poison.

      I sit up and notice that Shelke and Ryan are gone. Still hoping for Vincent to return I cry out to him to save me. When Ryan appears instead I am very upset, still wanting/expecting Vincent, and fall silent in anger and frustration. I sit crosslegged and completely still and the hundreds of snakes surround me and almost bury me in their mass and I find that I would rather be crushed or poisioned to death (though at this point I notice they have stopped biting me) by the snakes than to have Ryan come near me or save me, the very thought of which makes me feel sick.

      The last image of the dream is looking at the mass of snakes in my lap and taking note of a rather large, bright red one with intricate oriental inspired patterns down its back that are coloured a bright yellow or gold.
