Practicing more daytime awareness may help you catch those FAs. Don't try to force anything. Just tell yourself with conviction what you want and repeat it as mantra. Happy dreams

I had this really intense dream where I was able to alter time with a bunch of people and give ourselves a lot of money. I came up with the plan and told a couple of people and we executed it perfectly. Near the end some bad people found out how and they were chasing me for the three orbs which allowed you to do so. I kept trying to fly but I couldn't get up that high then I remembered I had to will myself to fly. I thought really hard that I want to fly and something strange happened. I kind of jumped in the air and had a really quick vision of something I can't remember which had something to do with me trying to fly. I jumped and ended up waking up somehow.. I can't believe I didn't realize I was dreaming...

Yeah, those dreams when you should have realized, happen often. But it sounds like you were able to make decisions. To me that happens only since I started lucid dreaming, so I take it as a good sign of improvement. Nothing can subsitute daytime awareness training - that's what will get you lucid. Did you check out the WILD class lessons? There is a bunch of great info about RCs, mantras, awareness and other. Happy dreams

I woke up in the morning and went back to sleep. I had a strange dream. I was sitting on a bench connected to the wall in a house. I don't know where I was. I was in the middle, a girl was next to me, and someone on my right. We were talking and the girl said something. I said that she had the power of persuasion. She had black hair and was pretty. I looked into her eyes for a bit and she said let me see your right hand. I obliged. As I let her see my palms I was awaken by my dad yelling at my brother. There is something special about this dream, I don't know what. Maybe she would have told me something very important.

Too bad you coudn't finish this dream. You can try incubating it - as you falling asleep, keep thinking about the dream and try to recall all the sensations from it. Think about wanting to dream with that girl again. Good luck

Okay, so I don't know why but when I go to sleep and wake up in the morning there is this dull pain at the right side of my back in either the bottom of my trapezius or my latissimus dorsi. I can't tell which one but it annoys the hell out of me and won't allow me to go to sleep. This happens almost every morning and prohibits me from sleeping. Anyways, the pain is there in any position I try to sleep in. On my back I can feel it, on my left side I can feel it but if I sleep on the right side of my body it won't happen. I woke up at 9 AM and I knew that I would be able to fall asleep one more time so I moved from the left side of my body to my right. I fell asleep with the intention of just falling asleep once more because I was still sleepy. Next thing I know, I am laying in my bed and I knew that I was dreaming. I didn't make any sudden movements because I felt that I would wake up. I was laying there for a little bit then I got up. I didn't stand up but I got up and sat on my bottom. I looked at my hands and arms. My left hand was glowing green and my arm and hand was missing. I already knew that I was dreaming but I said to myself that I was dreaming so I wouldn't lose control and wake up. I stood up, glanced around for a little and I saw missing textures like this



I knew that my dream wasn't stable so I was about to scream clarify but then I decided to say stabilize first. I tried and it was weird to talk at first but then I was able to my next try. Then I said clarify and everything was like as if I was dreaming. I knew because I was dreaming and it was 9 AM I would wake up soon because either I will wake up by myself or someone from the outside will make me up because this is what happens every day.. After doing the 2 things I instantly dropped to the ground and started touching everything because I remembered that last time I didn't and ended up making up. Everything was so life like I couldn't tell the difference. I walked into my brother's room and the picture of my little brother was in their. It was staring at me and creeping me out. I think it was alive but I just kept changing the scene until I couldn't see it. I somehow intentionally made the room just dark enough so I couldn't see the pictures staring at me. At one point though, before I changed the brightness of the room the pictures were on a mechanical thing with a platform that made it move closed to me.. I eventually woke up.

This may not be your case, but I used to wake up with back pain every day, until I got a better mattress.

And congrats on your lucid. You remembered to stabilize - it is indeed funny to hear your voice in a lucid dream. Good job on changing the scene and brightness of the room. Keep it up

Today, I was quite sleepy in the afternoon so I went to sleep and took a good nap. I was awoken many times by my family because I can never get any sleep without being distracted. I had classical music on and my limbs felt extremely heavy yet I knew I could move because if I am awake trying to go to sleep it will take my a very long while to fall asleep straight into a dream from my waking state. Next thing I know I am in a dream trying to lucid dream in my dream.. Inside my dream I woke up moved to my couch and was laying down. I would open my eyes occasionally inside the dream and each time I did I felt closer and closer to being in a dream even thought I was already in one. The next thing I know, my grandma decides to start screaming my name and wake me up :/. I was so close to yet another lucid dream but sadly nope. I'm not mad at her though because she is going to die in 3 months, her cancer has spread too far. The damn surgery didn't work. She said she was daydreaming and supposedly accidentally called out my name multiple times. It was more of screaming it than anything and woke me right up. I was soooooooooo close I remember the same exact thing process happening the last time I had a lucid and if I had 1 more minute to myself I'd be inside a dream by now.

Also, while going to sleep I think I fell asleep multiple times as I imagined myself to move at least 4 to 5 times yet I hadn't moved at all. For example, I was really sleep and my brother took my iPod at around 3 and interrupted my sleep. He gave it back and it had classical on but it was on the other side of my pillow so I couldn't hear it. I kept wanting to move and get it and imagined myself doing so. As soon as I did, I noticed that I had not even moved at all and it was an illusion. When that happens I snap back to reality and I need to try to fall asleep again. Eventually I made it to the couch where I was about to notice that I was dreaming because I had the intent to inside my dream but then I was distracted again..

I just had my 6th lucid and this is copied from my dream journal.

Dream 1:
So my first dream started off inside a bathroom in a school. I don't know what school it was but I was minding my own business and some kids walked inside the bathroom. I knew they had a bad intent for some reason and their "leader" said something to me. I said I don't want any trouble and all the kids laughed. I walk around for a bit and don't remember what happens but then the school principal walks in. One of the kids says it's the principal and at this moment for some reason rage overwhelmed me and I tried to attack their group leader. One kid pulled me back but I proceeded and the next thing I know I blacked out. All I can see is black and I regain slight consciousness. This had happened a lot and I read that sometimes, the dream scene will change so I told myself next time this happens I will switch dreams instead of waking up.

Dream 2:
The dream skips and I am outside my old elementary school. I knew I was dreaming right away and there was this weird hole in this ground with just debris sticking out of it. I guess that somehow triggered my lucid as I screamed out stabilize and I ended up on the other side of the school without noticing. Then I tried flying but I remembered I should spin to stabilize the dream first. It was already so vivid. I spun around and the more I spun the more wind I felt on my skin. I spun for about 2 seconds then a strong force pushed me forward and up. I was flying and I could feel the wind on my skin. I was going extremely fast and it was weird at first. I landed for a split second jumped back up again and went straight up into the sky at breaking speeds. It was so amazing how life-like this dream was. I went up and up until I was near the clouds. I woke up . I think I woke up because the dream scene just changed and there wasn't enough time for my brain to make up something beyond the earth's atmosphere.

This was an amazing experience and happened two days after my other semi-lucid where someone woke me up. The day after my semi-lucid I didn't have one dream because I had problems trying to fall asleep.

I had multiple dreams after this but I can't remember 2 of them and my 5th dream is too confusing to write down but I will try anyways. I was with a friend and there was this bad guy. He tried killing us and had a really big gun on his arm. I felt like I was doing no damage at all to him and we were able to hurt him by amputating his arm and leg. This all happened inside my room which seemed a lot bigger at the time and he sat on my bed. I go to the girl and she is sitting their tired. We had ripped off the wrong arm and he pulls out the big gun. My first reaction is to run and the girl is in wide open. He didn't seem to notice her and kept aiming at me but I was hiding behind a drawer. I was hoping he wouldn't notice the girl and he didn't. I was sitting there waiting for him to make his move when he takes his gun and kills himself. I scream out no and try to get him to stop but I don't move. He fires and I wake up.

I decided to take a nap because I was tired at around 12. It took me a while to fall asleep, and I was neither awake nor asleep for a while. I started off by counting down from 100 and at around 30 I started to get some imagery and so I tried to relax further. I reached 0 and started back at 50. Each time I counted down I said let go. At 20 I started to hear voices. I kept counting down further. One more time then I stopped because it was getting annoying and I was completely relaxed. I was stuck in a day dream and would snap back to reality at random intervals. It took a while but eventually I snapped back to reality one more time and then all of the sudden these vibrations came. As they were happening I felt as if my body was changing to a certain position, this is the second time this has happened but I have never gone into a dream because it was too exciting. I felt and heard the vibrations and as fast as they came they stopped. I opened my eyes and uncovered myself from my blanket. I looked at my right arm. There was nothing there at all. I tried to get up right away but I felt really dizzy and I saw blackness in front of me for a bit so I decided to lay back down. I thought to myself stabilize and clarify but I knew my dream wouldn't be stable from just saying those two. I sat on my bed wondering what was the last thing I needed to do. I sat there for around 30 seconds before I woke up...... Then I remembered I had to spin in the dream and try to interact with my dream world. Damn . This is my second lucid in a row and I now know that sleep paralysis does happen to me. I have experienced sleep paralysis a couple times before this but I never went into my dream. I either started trying to fall asleep at 11 AM or 12 PM. It's 1:25 now so it took me 1 to 2 hours to fall asleep.

Wow, some awesome lucids and SP experiences. Really nice. Good job. Do you like the vibrations and when you feel your position changed? I really like those. Keep it up

The vibrations happen as I feel like my body is changing into this strange position and I forgot to mention it feels my entire body is weightless and I am floating to my left. I actually do kind of like the vibrations but they are strange at first. It feels kind of like electricity flowing through my body.

You know, it kinda sounds like OBE - when you float out of your body and look at your hand and see nothing. Next time, try to look at the bed if you see yourself sleeping there. Many people believe, that OBE and LD is the same, so you have to decide on your own. Happy dreams.

That sound's pretty interesting next time I attempt WILD I will try and looking at my bed. The only problem I have with WILD is that it takes quite a while for me to begin getting the vibrations. Instead of seeing myself floating to the left, I'll see if I can try to visualize the elevator again and see if that induces an OBE.

Sounds like a plan

Well, I have had a dry spell for a while until this morning. I had a very long lucid and it was just amazing! I don't know how I became lucid in the dream but I remember being in a fight with a butchers knife in the beginning. I was in battle with this entity and we were in a small, dark house. I was trying to fall asleep and I sensed an evil presence. I remember having trouble fighting him off with the butcher's knife or similar knife. I did a really fast 360 to gain momentum and I used that to take the knife and give the evil monster a little gift . I spun and stuck it right into his jugular and I almost decapitated him but I didn't go all the way through his neck. Only most of it and I looked at the evil monster as he dropped to his knees and was gagging. I felt so relieved and walked back to the room I was in. It is a really small room and rectangular in shape. I remember seeing another evil entity try to get into my room and I stopped it somehow. Usually after something like this I would wake up but to my surprise I was still in the dream. I walked outside to a dead end to the left of the place I just left. I instantly knew I was dreaming for some reason and just sat there for a minute trying to fight the urge to fall asleep. I remember my vision becoming blurry and I felt drowsy and dizzy and I had to put a great amount of effort not to fall asleep. I might have woken up or ended up in another dream and would have lost my chance for lucidity. I dropped onto the ground on my chest and started trying to move around. I instantly lost the urge to fall asleep and just to be safe I screamed out Clarify and Stabilize which I don't think helped that much but I did anyways. I remember my friend coming to me and saying he became lucid too. I remember going back into the house and pointing my finger at a small gnat. I tried to control it but I could barely do it. I moved my finger down and it didn't move. I moved my finger up and it moved towards me and down again and it moved away. I got bored of doing that and went outside. I ended up on a highway and I remember trying a lot of things but I don't remember what. I remember running and wanting to run faster and gaining a huge boost in speed. In the end of my dream I tried flying which ended the lucid dream and I woke up.. I'm still quite happy about my dream which lasted about 20-30 minutes.

Whoa, that's a long lucid. Congrats! And good job stabilizing it. Shouting, even if it didn't work for you by a command, it may have helped by you hearing your voice. That's another sense engaged (on top of your tactile sense when you moved around on the ground).

Sorry for the long absence. I have not been attempting lucid dreaming at all because of the fact I rarely have dreams anymore. Any dreams I do have are really short and the quality is very dull. By dull I mean in the dream, I only focus on one thing and I see nothing else. I just wanted to tell you about what I experience right before waking up that was pretty scary. I was in a dark void. All I saw was this one "point" in the nothingness and I for some reason did not want to see the "point". After about 3 seconds of trying to push away this "point" I was unable to anymore. Then all of the sudden, my fears as a whole just materialized in this void. It was everything I was scared of and I saw some pretty scary stuff, I was just baffled.. After about a second of me seeing this "point" I woke up probably because of the fact I was just overwhelmed with all my fears. This all happens in about a couple of seconds before waking up. I had no dreams before this. I was wondering if this was a dream or maybe it was HI?

Wow, that's intense!

But can't realy tell, if it was HH or a dream, but leaning towards dream, since you were not WILDing. I feel for you. I have some things that I for sure would not want to see in my dream.

Let me tell you something what happened to me, maybe it will help you. There is this animal that I really don't like and I'm scared of. It is often in my dreams. And just a few nights ago, I had a dream where someone told me I have to catch it. I saw it peeking out from underneath some furniture and although it did look like my nemesis, for some reason I though to myself "It looks like something else". And I watched it turning into a cute, hedgehog like creature. This was in non-lucid.

What I'm trying to say, that if you change your mindeset and you start to believe, that what you think of is what you dream of, your dreams may start to change. You control your dreams. If you had thought - "Oh, that point is a beutifull sun", it would have changed into that. And you would be able to change it even in non=lucid, just because you think of your powers and you believe in that. Not sure if this makes sense, but I have noticed, tha more you think about something, more you believe in it, it will start happening even if you have no direct control over your dreams. Hope this helps.

And about your recall - do you keep a DJ?

Yes I have a dream journal next to my bed with a pen. I have 20 dreams I recorded.
