Coming back to SSILD. Felt the transition but stayed it in it for too long and lost lucidity.

Meditated: had a lucid where I just say outside and took everything in. I stared at the moon and watched it warp. Collapsed to the ground and had a false awakening. Continued the lucid dream to my backyard and looked into a pit of rocks and sticks. Then game over. Woke up and tried to meditate back into dream but instead had vivid non-lucid dreams of getting chased by huge monsters, post-apocalyptic water shortages, meeting a talking Zapdos , seeing old school chums.

Gotta work on that re-entry.

Did a mindfulness meditation this morning then went to bed. I felt the transition. I sort of got stuck where I felt the sleep paralysis but saw nothing so I out of fear of losing lucidity, I affirmed that "I am dreaming." This was after a sort of dry spell. Not really a dry spell because I didn't commit myself to meditating and becoming as deeply present as I possibly can. During the dream I attempted to become present again which made the dream seem more solid. Met people. The end.

Managed to get lucid twice this morning. They lasted each about 30 seconds a peace. In one lucid dream, I tried to go outside and split the clouds to get some sunshine going. Unfortunately, dream didn't like it and attempted to attack me with a tornado. Crisis averted. I don't remember how the second attempt went. I got the lucid dreams after doing a DEEP 45 minute meditation during a WBTB period. All I did afterwards was go to sleep and literally just sank into the dream. I felt the dream forming. I said "I am dreaming" to make the images stronger and I was fully immersed.

I don't know much about how dreams work but I now see the strong connection between the "Mind's Eye" and dreaming. This is huge for me considering I used to expect the dream to form behind my eye lids and thus focus for hours which no results. Could the next stage of mastery be me mastering the "Mind's Eye"? I am not big on woo spiritually like chakras but I might do some research between The Third Eye, The Mind's Eye and lucid dreaming.

And of course, find a way to STAY LUCID LONGER.

Dreamed I somehow became president of united states. Selected Bernie Sanders as my VP. Then opted to step down. Met my security detail. He was a young arab man who knew some martial arts. I also had a very incompetent and goofy secretary with green hair. Before then I had a lucid dream which I tried to stabilize yet ended in mere 10 seconds.

Had a WILD this morning. Successfully created, summoned and interacted with dream character. Onward to more adventures! The dream character was morphing though. I guess my brain was like, "Who is this person?!"

I am having lucid dreams so frequently now, I really don't know what to title these entries. Did mindfulness meditation(Here & Now) then went to sleep with mindful awareness. Had a DILD but lost lucidity somewhere in the beginning. Need to do a better job anchoring lucidity.

My longest lucid dream yet! It was so long and stable that I tried meditating and it was weird to say the least. It made the dream a bit more vivid for some reason. So much happened but one of the highlights of the dream was me using telekinesis to fight and blow up two alien spaceship things. Gosh the dream was so stable I was repeatedly testing my ability to summon a dream character. Couldn't find her. Maybe next time.
