Thread: Caradon's Dream Journal

Cool lucids man...I laughed at the bit when you pinched your nose in the first one and couldnt breath! That would have thrown me totally. It is mad that you were actually doing it in real life, I wounder sometimes if we do that and if it could be dangerous at all.

That second one is nice, I love to marvel at the beauty dreams can creat sometimes

Oh sorry I cant comment on the clover field one, I have not seen the film yet and im trying not to spoil it

That's the way to handle mean DC's! Too bad your "proof" failed!

I never did see the monster just the destruction it was creating.
That would be cool though.

Thanks, yeah dream images are so amazing. I'm glad I was able to recognize that it was too good to be real.

Well, sleep walking could be dangerous. I've actually done that a couple times in my life. But, I don't think you have to worry about any danger in pinching your nose. If you were really starting to suffocate, you would wake up pretty quick and stop doing it. It woke me up pretty quick anyway.

I didn't' really say much to spoil the movie I don't think. If you see it, you should see it in the theater. Because it really needs the intense theater sound to make it cool. Though the visual stuff was cool too.

Yeah, always got to be doing the acrobatics lol.

I was in to good a mood to let her get me down. It was funny giving her a hug.
That was pretty confusing when I couldn't breath. I'm glad I didn't let it fake me into losing Lucidity. It did end up waking me up though.

Don't remember to much from last night.

I had partial Lucidity two different times in my nap though.

Once during some strange star trek dream. Don't remember the details to well. But I remember being aware it wasn't real. And getting into some sexual stuff. But i know I wasn't fully Lucid.

I remember even less about the second one. But I remember being a little bit aware I was dreaming, and thinking about reality checks. Not sure if I did one though.

I will take your advice on the movie theater...I dont think it comes out here for a while but I cant wait for it!

Shame about the lack of recall, did you see they are making a new star trek movie? the teaser looks great!

Oh, I didn't know it wasn't out where you live yet. It's an interesting movie. not much of a story, but very cool monster, and destruction.

Yeah, they showed the star trek teaser. That puts a new meaning to the word teaser lol. All they showed was the Enterprise in a space dock getting ready to launch. the camera pans around it a Little, and they play the star trek music, thats it! Just the way it looked though was amazing. I can hardly wait to see it. I hope they make it as good as it could be though.

House of the giants/A T-Rex attack
I can't remember the first part of the dream. But I'm in this house made for giants. the giants let this T-Rex loose in the house. It's some kind of game, to try and survive being hunted by the thing. I can hear the T-Rex running through the house looking for prey. Terrified, I look for a place to hide. I find this closet, and I climb up onto a shelf inside it.

I can hear the T-Rex outside the closet. I'm so afraid, I sit there frozen trying not move or even breath. I'm just hoping the T-Rex can't smell where I am. After a moment it moves on. Now, my shelf in the closet, is no longer in the closet. But I'm high up on a wall. over looking a big room. I can see two giants, they have strange looking faces. kind of misshapen, and lumpy.

One of them sees me. I'm not sure if they are friendly or not. They walk over to me, I'm still to frightened to even move. I just sit there absolutely frozen, trying to make myself invisible. The giant says something like,"I've never seen one look so life like before." he is talking about me, I realize he thinks I'm some kind of doll or something.
He pokes at me with a finger as large I am.

He then picks me up, and caries me to another closet. he then sets me on a shelf in that closet. and closes the door. The giants are leaving, and I'm left alone with the hunting T-Rex. There are many huge coats and stuff in the closet. I burrow down underneath them, trying to hide even better.

I now notice there is a door leading outside, from the inside of the closet. I exit, and close the door. I'm standing behind the building. the front is surrounded by glass window like walls. It's late evening. There are shops around in the area, like strip malls. I think about going to one of them. I feel like it will be safe there. I walk around the side of the building, And I can see the T-Rex inside through the glass. It is looking right at me!

Now I've done it, given myself away! I make a run for it, trying to find some place with solid walls. As I run away, I can hear the T-Rex slamming into the glass wall behind me.Trying to get out and come after me. I run to the nearest building but the door is locked! All the shops have shut down for the night. I run, desperately trying to find an open door. But everything is locked. I pass people by as I run. And I can hear screaming as the T-Rex is attacking them behind me. I run and run, I find an open hallway leading inside. I'm running through the inside of a mall, and the T-Rex is still coming.
I can hear more screaming as it attacks the mall workers that are cleaning up for the night. I keep running in terror, trying one locked door after another. I wake up after not to much longer.

Comments
This one was truly a nightmare, I haven't been this scared in a dream in a long long time.
I'm surprised I didn't get Lucid. I probably would have, if the T-Rex had actually caught me.

Last nights Wild attempt
I enter a scene without Lucidity. I'm in my car, pulling into the parking lot of my work.
I park my car and get out. I do a completely random reality check. I always do reality checks between my car and the building. So I did it in the dream, And I can breath! But it startles me from my fragile stage of sleep.

I lost a couple dreams because of being to lazy to take notes, and thinking I would remember. Sometimes I can remember them without taking notes, sometimes not. This time not.

Your dream dinos are much scarier than mine!

That's awesome. I've always been fascinated by tornadoes, and have even experienced a few. I wonder why I don't have too many dreams of them.

Wow...that's just plain intense. Crazy dream, man.

@ the tornado dream

I don't know if I could let a tornado overtake me like that, even in the lucid state. I usually am overcome by the urge to 'kill' them and then bask in my mastery over lucid dream mother nature.

If I can remember to I am going to let a tornado snag me up just to see what happens.

I hope it doesn't rip my clothes off.

wow that T Rex dream is insane! It sounds like it would have been scary.

Sorry but what is a strip mall...all I can think of is dancing naked ladies

a strip mall is basically a mall but without being inside. A bunch of different stores surrounding one parking lot.

You experienced tornado's before! Now thats scary! I've had a couple close calls. but have been lucky so far.

Yeah, that would be great fun being in that cloverfield scene fully Lucid.

Yeah, that T-Rex dream was nuts.

Thanks Vex Kitten.
I have a thing about facing danger in Lucids. I enjoy playing with the indestructibility of my dream body. I like defeating threats by proving that nothing can harm me. and just taking what ever is dished out.

That actually felt really cool when my shirt got pulled off. And the wind on my skin felt great.

Yeah, that T-Rex was scary this time.

Like shin said, a strip mall is like a baby mall. The shops are usually on the outside. One long building, with a bunch of stores built into it. Like a strip of stores.

Last couple nights My recall really spiked. In vividness duration and intensity.
And I had some pretty fun adventures. But I've been working to late. And have not had the time to post anything.

Hopefully it keeps up tonight, even though I don't have time to write last nights dreams at all! Hope subconscious mind wont take offense, and keep my dreams from me tonight.

Congrats on those strong dreams. It will be fun to read them when you get a chance to write some of them down. Good luck on keeping it up!

Thanks, I have a hard time getting caught up when I get behind though. Had pretty intense dreams last night.

My subconscious gets like that though.

A Lucid Dream

Lucid Dream # 9 of 2008
Flying dreamsign noticed
No reality check needed
Basic Lucid Task Completed

I don't remember the beginning of it that well. What I do remember of the beginning is kind of confusing. I end up in a house with some people. I randomly levitate up to the ceiling. No idea why, I just know I can, so I do. Once up by the ceiling I become aware that I'm dreaming. It's one of those smooth transitions, not much of a surprise at all. I'm levitating around near the ceiling for a while, just having fun. I think to myself, cool, I'm Having my ninth Lucid of the year. For a moment I think of trying to have sex with someone. But, I then remember the Lucid Task.

I land. I'm in an upstairs hall, so I run down stairs and enter a room. It's a bed room and someone is just laying down to go to sleep. it's dark so I reach to flip the light switch. I have a hard time reaching it at first. I think about how switches are not supposed to work in dreams anyway. But,I flip it, and the light comes on.

I sit down on the edge of the bed. There is a teenage boy laying there. "Can I ask you a question?" I ask. He says, "You want to know something about yourself that you don't already know." Surprised that he already knows what I was going to ask, I'm also a little disappointed because I don't know if it will count if I didn't ask it. I say "Yeah tell me."

He starts rambling something, I don't remember what it was, but it wasn't about me.
I say, "No, I need you to tell me something about myself that I don't already know!"
Satisfied now that I asked the question myself. Task Completed.

The kid looks me in the eyes. his eyes are brown. "Well dad, I was trying to avoid telling you." ( he called me dad!) I'm pretty surprised by that. His eyes are starting to fill with tears. And he says, 'I absolutely hated the way you used to make me stay up all night playing marbles"

Then he starts going on about all the things I did while he was growing up that he didn't like. I can't remember everything he said. but with each statement he gets angrier and angrier. Until he finally picks up this cup next to the bed. and throws it at me. It's filled with something white, like Milk. And I'm covered with it.

I then grab the edge of the bed and flip it into the air. he goes flying across the room and slams into the wall. he falls to the floor with the bed laying upside down on top of him. He then begins laughing no longer angry, this is just some game. I start laughing as well. Still fully Lucid I realize how funny this all is. I wake up laughing.

Note: I don't have any kids and never plan to have any!
decided to just post it now. Be back for more dreams later.

That is pretty funny. Big mean dad making his kid stay up all night to play marbles.

That's hilarious! Do you really stay up all night playing marbles? I like how it ends with you both laughing together.

(I can't believe you have enough presence of mind to remember that it is your ninth lucid of the year! That's pretty impressive; my brain never functions that well.)

Hmmmmm maybe its an unknown future of yours

Oh my god. I had me a good laugh at the marbles thing. I would have to do it again to make myself accept it. Then again, it's hard to do lucid tasks. I think you need to get your head checked
