Thread: Caradon's Dream Journal

Night of 5-20-07

dry spell ended, at least I hope it is!

It starts out, that I am in my house, and it's just down pouring rain outside. I go to the window, and look out. I see that the heavy rain, is causing a flood. the water is already up to the edge of the window, and rising fast.
I feel the house actualy start to move. It's getting lifted from it's foundation,
and beginning to float. the flood water has a current, and is starting to push the house. The house starts to tilt on it's side, and I am on the side that is tilting into the air. The current gets stronger, and pushes the house into a roll. At the same time, I fall towards the lower part of the house, and begin to tumble around and bounce off the walls, as the house rolls a few times.

It's hard to describe what happens next, because I am a little disorientated.
I'm not sure if I went out a window, or what. but I distinctly remember entering the water, and the house falling away from me. The house is gone now all together, and I am getting pushed along at high speed. The momentum of the water is very powerfull. I am desperatly trying to twist and turn, to avoid getting slammed into things, like telephone poles and trees.
and what ever else may be in my path.

Now the current starts to form a wave. I am on the top of the wave as if surfing. but I am still partially submerged in the water. I am kind of stuck there, the water has a good grip on me. the wave starts out not real huge,
but it is growing as it washes forward. Until it becomes a massive wall of water, hundreds of feet high. It's just like in that movie impact, when the asteroid hits the ocean. And I am riding this monster thing! I can see lots of people running and screaming in terror, trying to get away. I am wondering, how I will manage to survive, once this thing comes crashing down.

Now I am having a hard time, comprehending the situation that I am in, and it starts to click that I am dreaming. At first it's just kind of wishful thinking.
But as I think about it a little bit, the full realization that I am dreaming washes over me. (I love that feeling) I see all the people running in terror,
and I feel bad for them. So I start yelling "this is a dream!" I yell it a few times. I want to let them know they don't have to be afraid.

I have gotten into the habbit, of pretending that my dream characters
are real people. but in my last half a dozen Lucid dreams, I have started doing it in an almost nonlucid way. so I think I will have to stop doing that.

I'm not sure what made me think, yelling this is a dream into a mob of panicked people, would make them feel better anyway. I give up on that and
look around. I see that the wave is very wide. And I can see a couple of other people caught the way I am. I decide I will try to get up, and walk across the top of the wave. I don't like being stuck in the water the way I am. I figure once I get myself free, I will get the situation under control.
and try for a Lucid task. Or talk to an animal. (Moonbeams Task) So I start
to pull myself up from the water, But as I am getting to my feet I wake up
This dream was pretty wild, and very vived. I have a lot a dreams about motion. But this Tidal wave thing was a new one.

Congratulations! Your lucids are back! I hope it is the first of many.

That was an exciting one, too. I often have crowds of people in my dreams; they don't usually listen to me either.

Good luck on doing the tasks! Still time this month!

Thanks Moonbeam, and thanks for replying. I'm not going to beat myself up to much, if I dont get a task this month. I was a little distracted, the Last
couple of days. hopefuly that does not slow down my progress too much.

There will be plenty of time for Lucid tasks, once I can get the Lucid ball rolling again. I may have to try and spend less time on the computer, until I can get them going.

In this journal, I am going to try and post some of my past Lucid dreams,
as well as new ones. hopefuly people will read them. That will make it more fun to take the extra time writing. I also keep a paper journal. So between working, taking the dog to the park, and writing dreams down. I dont get much free time for other things.

That's a good idea, to record your previous lucids. I'll read them for inspiration.

ok, cool

I used to have falling elevator dreams a lot. I never had a conscious fear of them. But, one time when I was kid, I got into an elevator alone. when I came to the floor I wanted, The doors would not open for me. I freaked out, and started banging on the doors yelling, until somebody came and got me out. this is the only explanation I can come up with for them. I started useing the elevator dream as a dream sign, and I would become Lucid every time it happened. But it didn't take to long before I stopped having the dream. This is one of the last times that it happened, and the only one that really stuck in my mind.

A past Lucid Dream: Date unknown.

I step into the elevator, and the doors slide closed. There is another guy in the elevator with me. I am not sure if I pushed any buttons, but the elevator starts going down. I start to hear some strange sounds, then the elevator starts jerking around violently, then bigins falling fast. Instantly I realize I am dreaming. I calmly sit down, with my back against the back wall, and my legs crossed. The other guy with me, is starting to freak out really bad. I say to him," relax this is a dream, we wont hit the ground, because there is no ground" then I tell him, that he should reach out with his thoughts, and he will be able to feel that it's a dream. Then he says to me," you know I think your right." I say, "I know I am right!" Then, I am sitting there for awhile just enjoying the falling. And I am making sure that we don't hit any ground, in a way that I don't know how to describe. then something odd happens. The walls of the elevator become transparent, like glass. And without noticing any change in motion, we are no longer falling, but flying across an amazing landscape, in a glass box. And I am controlling our flight. After flying for awhile I set us down. we get out, and I am about to go find some other adventure, when I wake up.

I wish this dream would still happen.

haha you say disorientated instead of disoriented like bear grylls!

Thanks Moonbeam, I won't stay away, I love Dream Views. I just really want to get back to Lucid dreaming the way I was at the end of january. Dry spell not quite broken yet. But I have been getting pretty close. Even last night I almost became Lucid twice. Once while Talking to my dead grandmother. I was really confused, because in the dream, I knew she was dead. And I didn't understand how she could be there talking to me. I was just on the edge of getting it. when my grandma turned into my aunt instead. And I realised I was mistaken.

And in the next one, I had this really strange dream, that a lamp fell over in my house. I was trying to pick it up, but there was something wrong with my body. every time I tried to pick up the Lamp, my hands would just pass right through it. As if I was a ghost or something. Then for some reason, I thought I would try levitating myself. I levitated myself up to the ceiling the same way I would if I was Lucid. But I didn't quite become fully Lucid. I woke up soon. I'm about to take a nap and and see what dreams I get.

Luv2dream Thanks for replying. I don't know many people here yet, so I don't get a lot of replies. so far Moonbeam is my only dream views bud, But she is a good one to have. Well I could probably count Clairity as well.

As far as my disoriented spelling I was not sure how to spell it, so I looked it up, and thats how I found it in my dictionary. I knew it was wrong but just decided to leave it that way. I need to down load the spell checker. to save me some time looking stuff up, because my spelling sucks.

Just trying to get spell checker working. It does not seem to be. I can't delete this post either. I will try again later.
I went on the iespell web site and it said thank you for downloading. But if it actualy did, I guess I don't know how to make it work.
When I click on the abc deal at the top right of this page. It still tells me I should go to iespell.com and download the spell checker.

You are not such a bad speller. I wouldn't worry about it.

(Knew you couldn't stay away......you've got to try the tasks this month!)

Yeah, there seems to be some kind of force, that keeps pulling me towards the computer. I will try to limit my time on it though. Thats the main reason I want the spell checker. It doesn't seem like my spelling is so bad, because I spend so much time looking up words I'm not sure if I'm spelling right. I am getting better though. I did just go back, and I got it downloaded, even though my computer warned me that I should not use it. It said it may not be safe to use. I decided that Dream Views, would not suggest I use something that is not safe for my computer. Hope I don't regret it! Oh cool, it works now. It tells me that towards is not in dictionary and I should use to wards. But that does not seem right to me? Oh well maybe it is.


I will try the tasks if I can. My first Lucid task of the month is to get Lucid!
But when I do, I guess I will be looking for you. I promise to be the gentleman Maybe we'll go flying or something. I don't have much practice summoning stuff. we'll see how it goes.

I am going to try and get back into my books. For some reason, reading fiction novels really helps me to become Lucid. I think it's because it gets me into a certain frame of mind thats good for Lucidity.

A lady I work with, has a friend that had just crossed it and it fell behind her.

I haven't really heard much about it for a while. I don't watch regular TV to much. Only DVDs. But yeah, I heard there were bridges all over the country that are being looked at now.

its scary when you are there just before something happens, I bet the lady you work with has a phobia of bridges now! dam thats scary about your sister....I bet she was a little freaked by it

I remember the 7/7 bombing in london I was meant to go for a job interview that day but It got rearranged at the last minute.

hey thanks man

Sometimes I can be completely exhausted. And if I let my mind keep wandering I still won't fall asleep. But after I've been asleep a while I don't have a problem with waking up and falling back to sleep. At least most of the time that is.

insomnia eh? lol I wouldnt want to mess with that its well bad! I know the feelling when your mind races I hate that so much!


oh and your dream about the office that must have been class to work ith a multi personality wonder what its like!

Yeah, I guess that was kind of like the borg. But it didn't have that kind of feeling to it.

Pretty scary you were almost in that bombing Mark! Glad you were not!

Hmm, probably right about the DV shirts and bumper stickers. Wouldn't be a bad way For Asher to make some extra cash though. And promote the web site, and Lucid Dreaming. unless nobody bought them I guess. I would
though. Blue and white shirt with the mountains could be kind of nice. probably wouldn't be to hard either, for someone who knows how to do it.

Slightly longer WILD
I wasn't really even trying to WILD. I had less than three hours before having to get up for work, and I was just trying to force myself to fall asleep as fast as possible.

I enter a work dream scene, with partial Lucidity. There are three old fashioned revolver pistols laying out in my work area. I'm thinking that it isn't a good idea to leave those guns laying out. But I remember it's a dream and it does not matter. as I watch, a coworker comes by and picks up one of the guns. He is messing around with it, then looks at me and tells me that he isn't going to give it back to me. I tell him that I don't care what he does with it, because it's just a dream gun. then I slide back awake.

Partial Lucidity
Then I have some skiing dream. don't remember a lot about it. But, at some point I am on the side of a road, at the bottom of a steep hill. I don't remember why, but I start sliding up the hill on my rear end. I come to a cross road, and I hop into the air to jump the road. I'm afraid I will come a little short, and painfully hit my ass on the curb on the other side of the road. I will myself to make it across, and I am aware I was able to do so because it was a dream. And I remember telling somebody about how I was able to do that because I was dreaming.

A past Star Trek Wild
I thought I would share this because of Mark's journal.

After watching a voyager DVD, I lay down for a nap. I was just laying there looking at the blackness. Not letting any thought at all enter my mind. The blackness becomes some kind of sheet, or barrier of some kind. And it begins to stretch like I am pushing through it. the blackness is almost rubbery. It stretches tighter and tighter, until I kind of pop through it. I then land on my feet Fully Lucid, on the bridge of the star ship Voyager! I stood there just stunned in wonder. every thing looked exactly like it does on the show. The officers were rushing around doing their thing. I just looked around in amazement for a moment before waking up again.

That would have been cool, If I could have introduced myself as the Q.

I had a scary dream about the Q this summer at the cabin. I never got around to writing it down. He had complete control of my dream world. And he was terrorizing a group of us. Not only did he have Complete control of the dream. But he could also read my mind. So he knew exactly what I was going to do before I could do it.
but in the end, he turned out to be not such a bad guy. And was just trying to bring out the best in us in a twisted kind of way. sort of like the way he was in the show.

I'm just laughing at that! I kind of forgot about the Q.

TK Tornadoes
Friday/April/30/2010

I'm in a house, can't remembernow what was going on before this point. There was a storm going on outside. There are some people in the room with me. We are looking out a large window.
We spot a tornado, then another and another. I'm not really afraid even though I'm not considering myself Lucid, the situation feels familiar. I'm getting used to these tornado dreams. I'm also a little aware that I created these tornadoes. One tornado is getting real close, sweeping back and forth just across the street. It seems as if it is about to come at the house. I then remember that I know telekinesis. I reach out with my mind locking onto the tornado. The tornado freezes. It is no longer moving, or spinning. The tornado then shrinks to the size of a couple of feet tall. I use TK to pull the frozen tornado towards the house. I pull it into the window, the glass breaks as I pull the tornado through it. I move the miniature tornado around the room for a few moments before waking up.

-Playing hockey on roller blades. The puck is actually a small red ball.

-I'm at Dairy Queen getting a coffee ice cream drink. They are selling scratch off games too. I decide to play one and I win something. But it is unclear as to how much the ticket is worth. I doubt it's anything substantial.

-I'm at a mall and stop at some weird fancy restaurant that is by reservation only. I guess I had reservations because I get in. I sit with some people I know and talk with them a little.

-I'm in my Colorado apartment trying to sleep on the floor in front of the big window. I look out the window and see some big truck pull into the parking lot. There is writing on the side that says something weird. I don't really remember what it said, or even seeing it. I just remember thinking about it.

-Something about reading a post in Marks journal.

Some dream
At the house with an old friend. Friend tells me a story about a drunk guy and a bike. Don't remember much about that. Something about the drunk guy giving him a ride on the back of the bike. I want to go outside for some reason, to get something. The something I want to get is across the street, I don't remember what it is. I'm thinking more about the storm. There is a lot of lightning and I'm worried about being struck. I notice some really wispy clouds hanging very low. Fascinated by the clouds I step outside. The cloud forms a funnel and touches down to the ground. It looks kind of like a very narrow tornado, but it's not really a tornado. Just some spinning cloud. I walk right through it, then pass my arm back and forth through it. Then the funnel starts moving away and I watch it go. I wonder if it will end up forming into full fledged tornado.

Events change. Not show how. Back in the house there are many people. It's some kind of gang and I'm joining the gang. I have to be initiated in. The initiation ritual is that I have to be brutally whipped. My bare back is being whipped, the skin id being torn from my back. I stead of freaking out, I decide to freak them out. I start laughing maniacally and pretend to be really enjoying the beating." More, more!" I cry. In truth it doesn't hurt at all, and I'm having fun playing the part of the psycho.

Somehow this scene alters. It's no longer a gang scene. Now I'm in ancient Rome, and I'm a slave.(Spartacus influence here.) There is a female slave I'm having a relationship with. I have strong feelings for this girl. I end up having to watch as the man who owns us abuses her. I nearly attack him, but then hold back, understanding the dire and futile situation. Fuming inside, I decide to bide my time and plot a brutal revenge.

Green stuff
There is a truck with an open flat trailer. The driver is on the back of the trailer as the truck goes down the road. He is trying to keep the precious cargo from falling off the truck. The man seems very desperate and begins pleading for help. The contents of the cargo are in sacks and beginning to tip dangerously. Apparently the sacks contain two kinds of material. I hear the driving saying that he should have never been carrying the two things together.

It's too late. A couple of the sacks fall from the truck. The sacks break open and the contents mix together. There is some kind of chemical reaction and this green blob thing begins to grow and grow.

I'm now in a weird spot. It's like inside a house, on a landing of a stairwell, between floors. The green blob stuff is growing fast and filling the stairwell, both form above, and below. I back into a corner as I fear the stuff will fill every space, and I will be suffocated by it. But just before I get buried beneath the stuff, it stops expanding.

Relieved, I find a way to climb up the wall and out of the predicament. Then there is some stuff about telling someone about what had just happened.

Fragment
Some barely recalled stuff about walking outside, possibly to a restaurant. There is some group of people.

Earlier
A bunch of intense action stuff that slipped away as soon as I woke up. It was right there but couldn't quite bring it back.

Lack of naps for a few days making it that much more difficult to remember anything. Got a pretty short nap in today before being awoken by some extremely inconsiderate people. Maybe I'll get more recall tonight. Not planning to sleep in though. It's so nice out, I'm going out to the park for a long walk with the rising sun.
