OBE professor
I am talking with some 'professors' about OBE, one of them tells me that I need a certain type of rock, a 'pantocrat'. (This word has some interesting hits on Google some about a 'world ruler'). Apparently I will need a large piece, not a small piece of this rock. He says he might give it to me, I am wondering how much it would cost. He talks about the need to have focus. (I am not listening clearly, I am feeling underappreciated, not respected, prideful) I say I have been meditating for years. He says "you need to visualize a balloon rising up through your body". He also says you need certain meaningful objects near you. For some reason for him it is crayons. I will have to find what works for me. Also there was some talk about 'exit points'.

June 25
LD at 3:30 3 to 4 minutes long. Used tiger fishing dream with MILD because it was so vivid. Tried WILD, but fell asleep almost instantly.

Gravity is broken
I am inside a house. It is late at night. It is dark and grey, I can barely see. I want to go outside (maybe for fresh air). As I open door, I worry about some of family pets getting outside. I try to block the doorway. I feel one of the cats (a DC cat, doesn't really exist). It is very small and all white. I hold it with one hand. But then it gets past me outside, so I go out to catch it. I see some other animals, there is a little dog and a bigger cat. I almost pick up the dog (part of me thinks its ours, part of me realizes it is not). Then 2 boys come into the yard. I decide they are looking for their dog. Then another boy comes into the yard. Dream shifts into being like a story from a book that is being told or read to me. This boy was dropped off by his parents to go to camp. But then his parents don't come to get him. My parents have to take care of the boy. They think his parents are poor. But then they find out the parents have bought a new home somewhere close by. His parents have plenty of money. My parents can't get them to come and get their son. Then they figure out how to trick them - appeal to their greed! So they call them with some story about the boy winning money and needing their help to collect it. So the parents come to my parents home to get the boy.
Now I am back in the dream. I am in a room next to where my parents are in the room with the other parents. In the room I am in there are some DCs (I make up some dream identities for them). We can hear some of the discussion from the next room. I think I should go in and tell off these bad parents grrr
So I go into the next room, and my father is sitting there on a recliner chair. I start floating/flying. meditate I think gravity is broken, no I'm dreaming twirl I say to my father DC "hey look at me, hey gravity has stopped, hey see me fly!". But he just keeps ignoring me and reading the newspaper. Then I try telling him about lucid state "This is a dream". "No" he replies. I look around the room, there is a dog and a cat sleeping on a couch. Its a large room. But it seems confining. I decide I need to go somewhere else for more fun. grin
I go over to a large window. I can see that we are on the 30th floor (or maybe even higher). I feel some fear sadblauw but think, hey its a dream I can fly. I want to try going through the window. I push against it. It doesn't feel like glass, but it is pretty solid (slightly elastic). I think I can't go through the window. As I turn I feel my elbow passes easily 'through' the window sill. I think Aha! If I go backwards the window won't exist in my dream world. So I start to crawl backwards through the window passing through the wall. I feel a strong wind blowing. I am slightly worried, but remind myself that its a dream. I am now outside, I am upside down outside underneath the room I was in. The 'wind' is blowing very strongly. I think I guess flying in lucid dreams depends on good weather. not a high degree of lucidity, I had plan about interacting with father DC in a lucid, but when he kept ignoring me, I forgot my plans. Then when the 'wind' came up, I believed that it was real. and that I was really outside on some building. This caused me to lose lucidity, and I had a false awakening
I am in a bed in a fairly large room. The 'boy' comes into my room, although now he is in late teens or early 20s. He looks at my bed and says I should adjust it, its not lined up correctly. He says it should be moved, but with all the stuff in it, need a dolly or some equipment to move it. But then he starts pushing it. He wants to rotate it 90 degrees. By the time he's turned it about 50 degrees, I shout out 'stop it" grrr I didn't agree to moving my bed, "Why are you doing it? Did I say I want this". He says sorry. I say that's okay you are a 'surname' you're very impulsive. (So I made him part of my family now?) Then other DCs come into the room. One is attractive brunette in skimpy clothes. Dream ends

June 29
I used with MILD. LD at 7:00 duration 2 minutes.

so this is just a dream, part 2
I am with Fl. and C. we are having a conversation. We talk maybe about a course. We say it must have been a long time ago because it came on a videotape, not a CD or DVD. I am holding the videotape. F & C are talking about how they have learned how to buy nice presents for their family. I am somewhat bored by this. I turn around, and start to pull videotape, then I am pulling gum from my mouth (DS). I pull a lot, then I think
This is all a dream? Of course it is. I turn around, F &C are gone. I am on Yonge street. I start walking along. It is quite busy - I hear people talking, I hear traffic sounds. See cars driving, see large billboards. Dream seems unstable so I try large arm rotations (don't trust rub hands, don't remember spinning). Dream stabilizes briefly, then it fades and I am awake.

there were several dreams before I became lucid. I think that I again became lucid at very end of REM cycle, rather then at beginning or in middle.

July 2
LD at 6:00 am, duration 2 minutes.

Did some autosuggestion and a failed WILD. Lots of sensual HI. But couldn’t transition to dream, so tried count down with “I am dreaming”. Then just repeated I am dreaming.

What model is that?
Parents are setting up a new tv. I admire the picture quality.

I go to another room, and am in some type of beauty salon. I am supposedly working there. J.F. is in charge or is trying to instruct us. She wants us to practice how to greet someone wearing a bowler hat. How we should remove it from the client’s head.
I say “how the hell did I get into this profession?”
Then I am talking with a beautiful young woman. wiske I am trying to make small talk with her, and to flirt. She asks me if I was born in Canada. I admire her French accent. Ask her if she has done any modeling. I look away from her at one point, when I look back this DC has become a young man with a scruffy beard! I think wait a second, I was just attracted to this person, she was a woman – this must be a dream!I look around the environment. I see through a hallway a stairway that leads down to a large bay window through which I can see the street outside. I decide I should go explore outside. As I start to walk towards the window, I wonder how I will get through it. Decide I will be able to pass through it easily. Suddenly things get darker. I decide that I am wearing clip on sunglasses and remove them. (Also thinking strange for my dream to create this, but easy enough to get past). Then I think that I should remember some dream tasks…Oh yeah I should stabilize. Oh no dream is fading, look at my hands and wake up
have had DC s change sex before, but this time I caught it and became lucid

July 6
had a long ND series full of missed DS.Was awake around 5:00 pm, reviewed missed DS did some MILD.
LD at 7:00 duration 5 seconds. LD at 7:10 duration 20 seconds. LD at 7:35 duration 7 seconds.

Baseball brawl
Watching a baseball game (no dream ego DC). The players get into a fight, then into a brawl, it is very violent. I realize – this is a dream. However I have no DC, so am confused and awake. Not sure what to do in LD where there is no character that is me. Its like my consciousness was watching 3D tv.

Mirror Mirror
Looking into a mirror, and realize I am dreaming. I see myself in mirror. Become anxious about what I might see in the mirror. Image fades. Then I see it again. Its just me. Then dream starts to fade. I think I should spin. Too late. Dream fades to white. I stay still. At one point I see a large insect run past (spider/scorpion). This shocks me awake.

Number Two
I am in a department store. There is some social gathering. I see some people bowling (this gives me pause, but then I wonder if I want to bowl?) Then I hear someone call out “Are there more than 3 for poker (DS)? I think I want to play. I go over to the table where they are (I will be the fourth).
A guy there says, “look at that 2 on the wall. Its backwards like a dream”. I look at it at and think that its backwards (but it wasn’t). I’m confused. Then when I look its just a circle. I realize that I’m dreaming. What am I supposed to do? And wake
up

Many DS and helpful DCs, but I was confused.

July 8
lucid sex
LD at 3:00 am duration 20 seconds. Had done some meditation and brief MILD when falling asleep

there was a long ND which had various things happening. At the end I was having sex with blonde woman. During the experience there was some visual distortions which led me to realize that I am dreaming. I wonder what I should do with lucidity? Then considering my position, I decide I should continue Shortly I woke up, after an unsatisfying experience. During ND and LD the experience was not particularly realistic or pleasurable

July 12th - I am riding a bicycle near the border (US?). I come to a place and go in. There are a bunch of red necks there and ‘my enemy’. I know they have me cornered. S. is there. I say “go and get help”.
The enemy laughs cruelly. He grabs my right arm. But I feel strong. I am stronger than him. He wants to pull me. But I pull him to one side and then I punch him in the back with my left hand. I wake up punching my bed. partial failure of SP

July 13th after LONG prelucid - I keep walking. Come to an area that has 3 small washrooms next to each other with shower/baths. I go into one. I get some soap. Get some shampoo but wrong kind. I see that my abdomen is very slim and toned/muscular. I’ve been exercising but not that much. Turn water on in shower. Intercom/radio blares out Asclepius is Dreaming! Asclepius is Dreaming!
Wait this has all been a dream? Quick rub your hands

July 16 LD at 9:50 for 20 seconds.
long dream about being lost, then pre-lucid - Inside a large building with a number of people. We are going to play a game. Something like capture the flag. These people have special equipment. Some pieces are like sticky pads that can attach to walls. Others are short sticks which can either connect to the pads or use hooks to grapple the walls. The contestants start climbing walls in different directions. I am impressed by athleticism and acrobatics. Someone is also playing a videotape from a previous game. I see a girl dressed in green on the tape, and see her also ‘live’ swinging on wall. I go to point her out. DC has become male! (DS) am confused, maybe I misinterpreted long hair. I go outside to scout around. I walk down street and see different people who are playing the game. Many are hiding in trees in camouflage to be ‘snipers’. I see one player shoot another with a kind of blow dart – player who was hit must play dead. Some in trees are not very well hidden. I keep walking down street.
See a person holding small glass cylinders hanging from white threads in his hand. DC says “these are for national parachute competition”. “Good for you I say”. I start flying. I see other DC with same things in her hand. I am flying higher. Feel like I am ‘soaring’ rather than using mental powers. Have arms spread out, almost like wings. Realize this is all a dream. Soar for a while. But worry dream will end. Think dream is now fading. I start to spin. But it was too late.
I think maybe subconsciously DS of flying made me lucid, but didn't think I am flying - I am dreaming as I have sometimes before. I keep becoming lucid only at the end of very long dream segments. Would like to become lucid faster. Missed 2 dreamsigns in this ND above. But recall is better, and lucid moments more frequent!

July 17
LD at 6:50 duration 90 to 120 seconds.
walking in winter
Walking in winter outdoors. Get into race with another guy sliding over the snow/ice quite fast round a curve and over a hill. Acrobatic feeling (DS).
---jump---
In a field. I pull a tape recorder out of water put it next to me (I use digital recorder to record dreams at night rather than hand writing notes). Look around. Think I’ve been here before. (don’t have waking memory of this place, perhaps I have dreamed of location before or maybe FM). This is a dream. I look around. It is nice day, blue sky. I start walking. There are quite a few DCs around. I say hi to a few. But none captures my interest. (Also no memory of dream tasks). I keep walking and come to a road. I see some cars driving. I think about DV dream task – stop cars. Seems boring. Think about what would it be like to be hit by a dream car. Probably not a great experience. Start walking out onto road. One of the car goes into a slide and spins around 360 degrees before driving straight again. I get to other side of road and start to walk down a hill. Very interested in different dream buildings. There is some snow on the hill, I start ‘sliding’ on the snow moving forward. I go by a large building. See a car pull in and 3 guys get out of car. I think they are volunteer fireman going into fire hall. Keep sliding forward. Think maybe I should fly, but don’t get off ground. Keep sliding. Dream seems to be fading. I stay still, loose lucidity. Dream episode of 2 guys coming out of a house. One is a minor celebrity who is going to play in a town vs town hockey game. There is an older guy with him who maybe part of a radio station.
once I started 'sliding' I kept moving in dream, seems in many LDs I can't stay still. In some I am running around. Need to try and slow down via breathing. Interesting dream has winter setting as its hottest days of year here!

July 18
Mirror, Mirror, WOLF!
I realize I am dreaming. There is a mirror. I decide to look in it and I see a wolf!

This shocks me awake. Not sure if I was inspired by PasQuale's lucid transformation. But wasn't lucid enough to avoid looking in mirror! So far I DON'T like dream mirrors.

LD at 7:20 duration maybe 30 seconds.
In pub there is a large woman. We start to make out. She says something about her eyes and about scars. This makes me lucid. I remember some info from LaBerge about not focussing too much on clothing or else there will be layers and layers. But not too lucid. Some minor dream control. Get excited and awake. This experience was more fun than previous lucid sex although still ultimately unsatisfying.

July 22
LD – 6:30 duration 30 seconds.

At a fast food place. Order chicken sticks. Chinese cashier asks me if I want combo, I say no. He says its $1.21. I give a $5 bill to him. When he takes it, money changes into Canadian Tire money. I say sorry I gave you the wrong money. He hands it back as a $1 bill. Then when I take it, money becomes “Blue Jays” money. missed DS several times of object changing
Then I am walking across an area that has been set up with chairs, possibly for a wedding. I see a large number of Indian people. I think they are making a movie about India.

I start flying. Realize I am dreaming. I fly down and pick up an African woman. We fly briefly together, then we land and start dancing together. I tell her “I’m dreaming”. She says “I’m dreaming too, but I have something more important to tell you.” I am shocked by this statement into a FA I know I just had a lucid dream, but think that it happened while I was awake, and that I am awake again. I fear I am mentally unstable. I am on the phone to talk to AW. I get someone else, tell him I want to talk to AW. He says “Is this Joe Schmo from Idaho?” I say yes it is. He puts AW on line, but now I really wake up.

July 27
LD – 6:40 duration 2 minutes. This was not a WILD or a DILD. It arose during sleep! Maybe a SPILD - Sleep Paralysis Induced lucid dream?
I am asleep realize I am asleep. Imagine I start walking around. Then I open my dream eyes. See a room with a bed and a blanket on the bed. Pattern on the blanket. And a mirror on the wall. I see I am wearing a suit, a coloured shirt, and a tie. Don’t like mirrors in LDs, so I go into another room. But there is also a mirror on the wall. I leave and start to go downstairs. Go down several flights of stairs. Realize this could be a loop. Decide that I will come to a door and go through it. On other side of door will be beautiful woman. Instead there are 2 ordinary DCs. I keep walking. On next area there is a blonde woman with curly hair. Explicit Content - too excited and dream fades. I stay still, enter an ND in a coffee shop, that is sold out of regular coffee? Wake up.
new way of becoming lucid for me.
