That Michael Myers dream was some something else. Lots of cannibalism. I like how he was going to eat your brain with a spoon!

I know that sucks, It happened last night too, but I lost that dream. It's ok though, because I got Lucid Later.

Maybe they're working together!

Yeah that is weird, I'll have to check that out when I get the chance.
I wish I could have remembered more of that dream. Maybe I would have known where they were from, or who they were.

Wasn't that insane, I woke up from that one feeling like I wanted a cigarette.
I think that was caused by REM rebound. Plus, watching that movie recently.

A Lucid Dream
Wednesday/January/6/2008
Lucid Dream # 10 of 2008
Spontaneous Lucidity
Interrogation attempt # 1

I think I'm playing a video game. I have this controller in my hand And I can control this DC with it. I'm not watching it on a screen, I'm in the same room as the character I'm controlling. There is actually more than one room. People are trying to attack my character. I'm making him run around, slide across the floor on his knees, pull out guns, and fire at his attackers. I'm also able to control his hand to hand fighting moves.

LOL, it's like I have a remote control DC! I make him walk into this room and I follow him. The room looks like a living room. The regular living room furnishings. There is a woman messing with a TV. I start making my DC throw stuff at her, when Lucidity spontaneously washes over me.

I immediately drop the controller. I Think sweet, I'm Lucid again! I take a moment to look around and appreciate my good fortune. The women, a bit heavy set, with red hair and a white shirt, finishes what she is doing then sits down on a couch. I then think of the interrogation task. I say "hey lady." As I walk over to her, and sit down next to her. I sit down next to her, and ask "What are you from?" She laughs and asks,"you mean, what does it matter?" She knows what I meant, and is being a smart ass. " I meant, Where are you from?" "You want to know Where I'm from?" she asks.
I say "yeah!" She gives me this knowing look, and says, " I'm from a place called Elete."

I get the impression,that" Elete" is some beautiful magical place that exists somewhere in dream land. I get this hard to describe feeling of fascination wonder and excitement. I look at her shirt, and I see she has a name tag. On the name tag are the letters Elit, written in beautiful hand writing. I'm Wondering if that's how your supposed to spell the name of the place she's from. Or if her name is Elit, from Elete.

I look around for something to write with, because I want to write this down so I don't forget. But, I realize that's a waste of time. I'm Lucid enough to remember I'm not going to wake up with the note in my hand. So I drop that idea. Then my alarm starts going off.

Comments
Well I got the question wrong, but I was happy with the experience. It was a good question, and I got a good response. I think I'm going to follow up on it, and see if any other DC's have heard of this place called Elete.

Wild attempt # 1
I enter a scene fully Lucid. I'm looking at a kid in a highchair. Probably my youngest nephew. I feel the scene trying to slip away, and I'm able to pull myself back into it by sheer force of will. Not sure how to describe it. Just focusing on the kid in the chair before me. And I'm using my mind somehow to pull myself back into it. It's a back and forth struggle for a little bit, and I finally lose.

Wilding into A nap
I enter a dream without Lucidity. I'm in a grocery store parking lot. Someone is with me and we are talking as we walk towards the store. Lucidity spontaneously washes over me. I think I'm about to have another good Lucid when I wake up. I had forgotten that I was even trying to WILD. I had thought I just got Lucid in a normal dream.

Had a cool adventure dream in my nap, but don't have time to write it.

That was short but sounded pretty fun to me. Controlling someone right in front of you than realizing you're in a dream. Thats a good question to ask im sure you're probly going to get different responses from different DC's. I think if i ever remember i'll ask as well. And nice attempt on the WILD

They tend to do that.

Cool; you starting on the DC questioning. This will be interesting.

Random reality check induced Lucidity

Had another Lucid dream last night.
I don't think I'm going to post it though, due to some personal emotional content.

Thanks, yeah that was fun. Well, I'll start asking if they ever heard of the place and see what happens.

Yeah, she didn't seem unfriendly about it though.
I'll try to remember to ask them. But there are so many things I want to do.

Thanks, I managed to get into that good spell. Lets see how long I can keep it going. A little distracted at work today, had a hard time focusing. Some annoying stuff was getting on my nerves. but I did remember to do reality checks.

Good probably isn't the best way to describe that last one. It felt good being Lucid, I enjoyed that. But, I ended up getting pretty upset. The only Lucid I can say I ever had that ended up a little disturbing. But not in a scary way.

Sorry to hear that, but maybe it served a purpose, I hope.

Wind storm/Crocodile attack
Partial Lucidity

I'm walking on a trail, heading up into the mountains. I think about the fact that I don't have my dog with me, and I feel guilty about not bringing her. The wind starts to pick up It starts ripping through the trees so loud, it's deafening. I think if the wind is blowing this hard here, I wonder what it will be like higher up on the mountain.

The wind keeps picking up, and I start getting worried about trees getting blown over on me. There is a stream, and I'm watching the trees on the other side of the stream, getting bent over by the wind. There Is one tree with a really wide truck standing upright. But it suddenly gets snapped in half by the wind. The top part of the tree falls to the ground, and gets blown along like a giant tumble weed.

OK, I decide that's enough for me! Time to end my little hike. I turn around and start heading back the way I came. I see two women on their way up the trail, and I tell them about the tree I just saw get blown over by the wind, and that it's not the best day for a hike.

I continue on my way, until I come to a place on the trail that has been flooded with water.( I have no idea why I do this, I must have had partial Lucidity here.) I Jump into the air, then catch myself with my mind before I can hit the ground. I hover inches above the ground in a sitting position, with my legs pointing straight out in front of me.

I begin flying across the surface of the water at high velocity. Just barely skimming the surface. After a ways, I start to see crocodiles in the water. I'm not to worried at first, because I'm moving so fast I just fly right past them before they can react.

But I start to see more and more of them, and I'm starting to lose control of my hover flight. I'm slowing down, and beginning to sink into the water. Land is near, But the main concentration of crocodiles is right where I need to hit land. I see one spot, that is somewhat clear of them. A rocky area, that is covered snakes! I weigh my choices,
And I decide to take my chances with the snakes. I hit shore, and I land right on top of a writhing mass of snakes.

I try to pull myself, further from the edge of the water before any crocodiles can get to me. But I get that difficult to move, dream problem. I can move away fast enough. one of the crocodiles see it's chance for a meal, and begins moving my way to strike.

My perspective shifts, and I'm now behind the crocodile watching it go after me. But I actually have another body now, like I split into to people. I suddenly think, "What am I so worried about, it can't hurt me in a dream!" And I grab the crocodile by the tail, and swing it back over my head and into the water.

Next thing I know, I'm doing my little flying across the ground thing again. this time through town. I'm trying to make turns on the street. But I'm going so fast that I end up going wide, and into peoples yards. I just fly down the roads a little bit like that until I wake up.

Originally Posted by Moonbeam

Yeah, I understood the meaning of the dream.

Wholly crap though, are my DC's realistic!

I wrote here that I was going to post the dream. But I don't know, I'll have to think about it a little more.

It's really not that big a deal, I just generally don't like posting things too personal.

hey man! sorry I havent been in here a few days

nice one on those lucids! I laughed at the first one with the remote control DC thats just great ha ha

This part should be in blue, I think? Maybe it was just a single thought of lucidity, like I had the other night. (Now crocodiles! You're kind of like the anti-Steve Irwin. JK, I know animals like you IRL).

That's OK it's impossible to get every journal every day. I know I can't, especially on the weekend. I work so late and have to get up so early. that by the time I wake up from my nap, there is sometimes only like seven hours before I have to be back up for work lol. I barely have time to write any dreams.

Thanks about the Lucids. That was pretty funny. It's interesting, how I sometimes get Lucid, after first thinking it's a video game.

Sometimes I think it's a movie first.

Well, once I started flying across the ground again, I think I lost what Lucidity I had. But just for a second there I was almost fully Lucid. I had that feeling of relief wash over me, just before throwing the crocodile back into the water.

Yeah, I do have a history of crocodile attacks as well. those things scare me almost as much as bears do. Just glad there are none in the waters around here. Those things will eat you for sure if they got the chance.

So sad about Steve Irwin, I loved watching that guy, he was so cool.
I felt especially bad for his wife and young daughter.

Haunting
I only slept a couple hours last night, and lost most of what i was dreaming
I just remember a fragment of a scary dream about a haunted place.

There was a woman that lived in this place. I was there for some unknown reason. The entity was pissed off about me being there. There were glass plates being thrown around and busted. People were getting cut by broken pieces of glass. Close to Lucidity again, I'm thinking I'm watching a movie, and That I should have watched this one in October to induce the haunted house Lucid task. Because it was a lot scarier than the ones I actually watched for that.

A nap fragment
In a public bathroom. Some annoying kids playing around and getting on my nerves.
A lady I work with in the mens bathroom.

Plenty of bathroom dreamsigns in this one, I wonder when I'll ever get Lucid from that. I always watch for strange or annoying things happening when I'm in
bathrooms. It happens every time in dreams. Maybe writing this here will help me to remember to notice it.

Should, get some good REM rebound soon. I'm a little sleep deprived.

How does the REM rebound work? Whenever I'm sleep deprived, I just fall into a deep sleep and don't notice a thing.

I know... I dreamed about him several times after he died. I couldn't believe he died in such a stupid way. I really liked that guy.

yeah that was shocking about irwin like, of all the creatures to die by it had to be a sting ray they kill like 2 people a year or something!....its a real shame.

Its cool you had such good recall for only a few hours sleep mate, I hope the rebound works out for ya

Yeah, I know what you mean, that's why It's so hard for me to remember dreams in my naps. But my nap usually takes care of the deep sleep, and works like a long WBTB.

I don't know all the scientifics of it. But, basically you need a certain amount of REM sleep, as surly as you need food and water. And after several days of not getting The REM you need, it kind of gets backed up. Then, when you finally get the sleep you need, it can hit you all at once. And you can get a ton of really intense vivid dreams. In my case sometimes horrific ones.

Yeah, I think I remember a dream I read in your journal about him, when I first joined the forum.

Something about getting KY jelly from some plant in the wild lol.

Thanks mark.
Yeah, that's so insane. It's hard to believe that could have happened.

Oh yea... I haven't gotten up to that one yet in my back-up.

Busted
I'm with my friend Iron Train. (User name of an old friend of mine who is a DV member now. But is having problems logging in with the computer he uses.) We are outside on a street smoking a joint. There is a high speed police chase. Cops all over the place with sirens blaring. A car pulls up next to us, and I realize it's some kind of under cover cop.

Iron Train and I make a run for it. I'm thinking this is stupid, we are just going to get into more trouble. Crap, I remember I have more joints in my pocket, and I'm afraid to get busted with them. I run around the side of a building, and I see some landscaping rocks on the ground. I pick one up and put a couple of the joints under the rock and put it back real quick because I see a cop come running around the side of the building. I don't what him to know I put anything there.

He catches up to me, and slams me up against a wall. He acts like, he thinks I will
resist. But I say" hey, relax I'm not stupid enough to fight a cop. (Don't want to get assaulting an officer, as well as resisting arrest! And over a couple of stupid joints.)

he chills out, and we walk calmly back to an area where there are more police, and Iron train is already captured as well. These police are not real police though. It's like the "Dog The Bounty Hunter" show, that I've watched parts of a couple times.

There is a family of them, and they are having some kind of discussion about the situation. I'm standing near a fence, and when I think no one is looking my way, I throw the last couple of joints I have over the fence. Nobody seems to notice.

They drive us in a car back to some police station that really does not look much like a police station. I wake up shortly after getting there.

Fear
I'm hanging out with somebody, and watching MTV's show called "fear." (Cool show, I wish I could find it on DVD. I only watched a few episodes of it.) Don't really remember much about the dream besides that. There were more people in the room, and stuff was going on besides the show being on. Don't really remember the details.

Reality check timer
after my alarm went off I hit snooz. I went into a dream(don't remember the setting.)
I dreamed of my watch timer going off. Was just reaching up to do the reality check when I woke up.

Nap dreams
Took a three hour nap when I got home, was just exhausted. didn't remember much until the last hour. though early in my nap I think I had a Lucid. I have a vague memory of doing hand springs, and having a false awakening where I wrote that I had a Lucid Dream in my note book.

Lucid House
I was watching the TV show "House."(Don't really watch the show, but I've seen parts of it a few times.) In the middle of the show, House just stops, and says" This is all a dream!" he looks around amazed like somebody who just becomes Lucid. I think, Cool! House is having a Lucid Dream on the show! I then decide it's a good time for me to do a reality check as well. I pinch my nose, and just as I'm starting to become fully Lucid I wake up.

Laundry day
I immediately fall back to sleep. I have a load of cloths, and I'm trying to put them in the dryer. But It's a pay dryer, and for some reason it doesn't work. I have the quarters in my hand. Somebody comes by and jokes about me using the quarters to play video games, since I can't use them on the dryer. That leads into a discussion about Lucid Dreaming.

Walking the dog
I'm walking the dog on a park trail. And for once nothing extraordinary happens.
No attacking bulls or bears or anything. No storms, are flooded trails. Just walking along with my dog until I wake up lol.

Sorry at all the missed lucid opportunities. Shame you kept waking up. And the discusison of Lucid Dreaming, how did you miss that one?
