Thread: Twoshadows' DV Member Dreams

5-30-2006


I finally had a dream about someone from this board. Hi Oneironaut... yes... sorry... it was you.

Okay...

At the beginning of this dream I was in a theatre--a nice one. I was alone and waiting for someone or something (don't remember). It was rather dark, and I was tired, so I decided to get comfortable and take a power nap. As I was starting to drift off to sleep, I decided that I wanted to WILD. I concentrated on the feeling of my body, and I felt the feeling like I had when I had my successful WILD-- of myself leaving my body. At that point I knew my WILD was a success and I took off flying like I always do when I become lucid. I don't know if I was actually lucid or not. I was telling myself I was at that moment. But my thoughts weren't as conscious as they often are when I am lucid. So I can't say for sure.

Anyway, I flew around but then started worrying about my body that was laying in the theatre. I then heard someone call my name and I woke up (in the dream...FA). I then realized that I had had a successful WILD, and I was excited. I wanted to tell someone.

I looked around and I saw Oneironaut. I ran up to him and said, "Hey, guess what? I just WILDed!!"

And he was happy for me. We hugged, and the next thing I knew we were no longer at the theatre, but at the Lake (Surprise, surprise...I'll forever dream about the Lake). It was night. I was suddenly thirsty and Oneironaut had a canteen with him so I asked if I could have a drink and he said "yes", so I took a drink. And then we just sat at a picnic table and talked.

I don't remember what we talked about really. But I think we were talking about religion and beliefs because I remember telling him that I didn't drink. After I said that, he looked at me and smiled and said, "Yes, you do."

And I said, "No...really...I don't".

And he started laughing and said, "Yes, you do." again.

Then I suddenly got it, and said, "Oh no...okay...what was in that canteen??"

And he told me. Don't remember what it was...something with alcohol. I then had the sudden need to defend myself and said, "But it didn't taste anything like anything alcoholic that I have ever smelled".

But it was cool, and we were both laughing.

Then out of nowhere three older people came and sat down at our picnic table and started eating and complaining about how bad their food was.

And it was at this point I woke up.

I'm trying to figure out where this dream came from. It makes sense that Oneironaut showed up as the person I shared my WILD with because he is the one here that I have talked to the most. And I enjoy talking to people that are both intelligent and funny.

The alcohol part..... I can only guess it is from the fact that I have always been really "good" in that I don't drink, smoke, use foul language, etc etc. And in high school I seemed to always be someone's project to see if they could get me to change. (They never could). And it still goes on many years later. I recently was talking to a friend (through email) about my beliefs, etc., and he wrote the following to me: "I have to teach you to swear...LOL. I'm going to get you to say "MO#$#R FU*&#&R before I die. (Which may be soon if I keep tempting the Lord)."


So I guess Oneironaut accidentally got me to do what no one else has ever been able to do...LOL

(I know...it's just a dream...).

Anyway, it felt good to have a successful WILD again...even though it was in a dream.

Another dream was there was going to be some kind of contest and Courtney (from this site) was going to be one of the judges. She was never actually in the dream, just mentioned. But I guess I could say that this was my second dream with a Dream Veiw member in it. That is all the detail I remember from the dream.<!-- / message -->

I had a "Dream View Members" dream. I think it was inspired by the fact that I read a Personal Message from a Dream View member and wrote one back before going to bed last night.

Dream:

I was was moving into a dorm or apartment with several Dream View members. When I got there with my stuff only one other person had gotten there, but they weren't there at the moment. I didn't know who they were yet.

There were two bedrooms. The smaller bedroom had bunk beds and the bigger bedroom had one big bed. I chose the one big bed and put my sheets on it and started making myself at home.

Then another DV member--a guy--comes in and also starts making himself at home in the big room. He is a nice guy and we are talking, and I don't seem to notice the problem that there is only one bed in that room, yet. Even though I know he is a DV member he doesn't seem to be anyone in particular (at least I don't remember a name). BUt he seems like someone I will be able to relate to and trust.

Then suddenly I notice that there is someone else there. It is Aquanina, and she is sitting at a desk in the big room and is on the computer. I notice that she is writing a post on DreamViews. I introduce myself and mention that it will be cool to all be DV members--that we all have that in common. She is also very nice and friendly, and I'm feeling glad that I have ended up with such nice roommates.

Then another guy comes in. He is a young guy--maybe 16 years old-- with blond curly hair. He is very outgoing and funny (again, I don't remember a name but he is supposedly someone on the board). Anyway we realize that there is a problem with having enough places to sleep. Aquanina tells me that she is in the smaller bedroom with the bunkbed, and that I can come and use the top bunk. So I gather my things and go in there. But the person who used that bed last left it a mess. There are dirty ripped sheets with blood stains on the bed, and it totally grosses me out. I take them off and am thinking that I need to find a way to disinfect the mattress before I put my sheets on.

And that's all I remember.

You (Oneironaut) were in one of my dreams again last night. Unfortunately my recall wasn't really good. But we were in some sort of build building, like a library--and there was this large male lion roaming around. It was making me very nervous. I remember going into this room and trying to shut the door, but the door wouldn't close because there was no door knob, and suddenly the lion was right there by the door. I don't remember what happened, but I do remember walking out of the building with you. That's all.

Dream 2:

Another Dream View Member dream. There wasn't a lot to it. But I remember talking to CoLd BlooDed about Lucid dreaming. And I believe that is what triggered my next dream since I remember seeing a picture that CoLd BlooDed posted of himself sitting on top of a volcano.

Dream 3:

In this dream I remember standing at my house and seeing this volcano. I must have had binoculars because I looked near the top and I could see these beautiful flowers. I was concerned if they were getting enough water. They were so beautiful that I didn't want them to die. So I figured I had to go up there to see if I needed to water them.

This was one of those wonderful dreams where you find yourself moving through space super fast. I think I was running. Running fast and never tiring. Before I knew it I was up at the top of this volcano. I checked on the flowers. I may have watered them (with what, I don't know). When I was satisfied, I took in the beautiful view and then sped down the volcano and back home before anyone even knew I was gone. For some reason I found that whole dream very exhilerating and magic.<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

Well, CoLd BlooDed... guess what?

One of the last things I did before bed last night was to read this last post of yours. I was going to respond, but I suddenly felt too tired, and decided to reply in the morning. But instead.... I responded in my sleep. How funny is that?

So.....

Dream 1:

I was talking to CoLd BlooDed about flowers. Amaranth, to be specific. This year I have some very beautiful Amaranth in my garden. But oddly, in the dream I decided I didn't want any Amaranth in my garden, and CoLd BlooDed was helping me pull up all the little Amaranth starts. I find that very strange. I rarely pull out any flowers. If they grow in the wrong place, I will transplant them to another. Especially something as wonderful as my Amaranth.

9-16-06




All right....

Well, I decided that I would give it a try. Seeing if I could get you (CoLd BlooDed) to show up again and use you as a dream sign. So I went to bed saying "When Cold BlooDed shows up, I will become lucid....When CoLd BlooDed shows up I will become lucid...."

Sooooo....did it work?? Did my mind remember that when I started dreaming?

Answer: Sort of.

Dream 1:

I remember waiting. I remembered that I was waiting for CoLd BlooDed. I remembered that that was supposed to be something good. In fact, I had gotten together this large barrel, and in the barrel were all these pencil boxes. When Cold BlooDed came, we would celebrate by passing out the pencil boxes to everyone present. These were very special pencil boxes that were even filled with.......pencils.

But I waited...and waited....but CoLd BlooDed never came. No one received the wonderful gift of....pencil boxes. It was very sad.

Dream 1:

One was talking to dream View member Ranma187 about "hands" in dreams. I had started reading his dream journal and had remembered that there was something significant about hands that I was supposed to remember when I was asleep. Unfortunaltely, this didn't trigger lucidity.

10-14-06

Dream 1:

There is no detail, unfortunately, but I remember I was talking to Ranma187 and we were looking through the eye of a needle. Don't ask, I have no idea what that was about.

10-25-06

Dream 1:

Oh this was a cool one. It had CoLd BlooDed in it again. I always like having DV member dreams.

I was looking out a window from a second story and looked down and saw CB standing around with some of his friends. Then somehow I was down there too so I could hear the conversation. CB was talking about this girl he knew--someone with the username of "16dreams". Aparrently this girl had recently died and CB and his friends were mourning her death. I remember the part where they were especially sad because today she would have been celebrating her sixteenth birthday.

Ahhhh this is great!! I think it's sort of adorable that so many of us have dreams about DV.

Edit: HEY.. maybe we can start a thread or something where people post their DV dreams. I'd like to hear everyone's!

[uh oh--I think I missed some. My numbers aren't matching up]


10-30-06


Oh yeah, I never wrote down the dream that I had that Jess was in. I think I had the dream two nights ago--but I'm not sure. The whole past week just kind of blends together.

Anyway, it's just a short dream--and now that I am thinking about it, I don't remember much. I was sitting in a chair by a computer and Jess was either sitting by me or standing next to me, and we were working on writing something on the computer. If I ever remembered what it was, it is forgotten now...

But still....it had Jess in it!


I need to make a new tally of DV member dreams before they become so numerous that I have to go back and count. Anyone can correct me if I'm off, because I may be since this is by memory.

CB....4

Ranma...3

Oneironaut...2

Jess...2

Aquanina....1

Pyrox (?)....1

Courtney....1

A lot of repeats...because these are the people/friends who talk to me in my journal.

There is a thread. But I don't think many people actually use it. I've only posted a few there.

Dream 1:

I almost hesitate to write this one.

I was being stalked by a DV member. He is actually a real Member here on the board--but I won't mention his name. I don't know why it was this person as I have never had any sort of conversation with him, nor have I even read many of his posts. But I did read one of his posts yesterday--that's the only reason I can think of that his name came up.

So in the dream I knew he was following me. I was surprised that he had tracked me down. And when he crashed through the door of my house, I woke with a start.

Dream 1:

This one was about this DV board. But for some reason it was quite unpleasant. There were all kinds of problems and people were losing their posts and I was trying to fix it for everyone but I really didn't know what I was doing. Stressful dream.

This dream seemed to go on for a long time. it was the first dream of the night so I don't have very many details.

11-19-06

I had a night full of dreams...Including one with Oneironaut

Dream 1 :

Since this was one of the early in the night dreams I don't have the details I wish I had.

I was going to a meeting and I was running late, but right as I got to the building I needed to go to, I met Oneironaut. We started talking. And I really wish I remembered what we were talking about because I do remember at one point taking off the boot I was wearing, and we were both looking at my bare foot.

Then I remembered the meeting. I told O that we needed to hurry. So we walked into the already started meeting and sat in the back. I was thinking that somehow just being with O would show that I had an excuse for being late.

And that's all I can remember. So all I can think of when it comes to the foot, is that recently O and I had been talking about what happens to our hands in LDs. And that in one of my fairly recent LDs I also decided to look at my foot. So I suppose that there is a possibility that we were looking to see if my foot was doing anything weird in this dream. But shouldn't that have triggered lucidity??

But if that wasn't the reason, then I would certainly be interested to know what the real reason was.

11-21-06


Dream 2:


Then there was another dream about a DV member (but not a real one) Her name had the word "Kittie" in it. Anyway she was inviting me to go to something.

Dream 1:

Since it is the first dream of the night I don't remember the details. But it was a very unusual dream, and it drives me crazy in retrospect that it didn't make me lucid.

Anyway, I was hanging out with Tsen. We were in this car that was hovering high in the sky. And we were taking turns jumping out of the car and trying to fall through these certain grey patches in the clouds. These grey patches apparently had the ability to make you lucid in a dream...so of course that was our goal.

So we'd fall and then fly up to the car to try again. I'm really thinking I must have missed the grey patches entirely.

It seems like at one point one of Tsen's friends was there too. But that's about all the detail I remember.

I do know that I really wanted to write this dream down so I didn't forget it...and I did that nicely.... in the dream.

11-29-06

I just had my longest Lucid Dream</SPAN> ever.

I had awakened at exactly 6:00. It was a sleep-in day, so I got up did a few little things, took a B6, then lay back on my bed and listened to U2 for about a half hour, then turned off the music and thought about what I wanted to LD about. I came up with a few ideas, but decided I might just go with the flow when the LD started. At exactly 7:00 I laid back down to go to sleep.

I started dreaming. The first part that stands out was I was at my friends' house. They had moved and were building their own house. The house was like a big castle--but painted white with red trim. There was a tunnel though the house, and I could see a large train engine sitting there.

I told them, "Wow...I see you are actually making your dream house. It's so cool!"

I talked to them for a bit about the house. Then I got distracted. I had this ball of rolled up chain that I was holding. I realized that I could make it float, and if I hung on real tight I could come up off the ground a few feet.

I'm pretty sure it was that that triggered lucidity. This was such a long dream that I don't feel that I can get it all in order. But I don't feel that for this type of dream order will make a huge difference.

I believe the first thing I did was to fly. I don't think I went far before I decided I needed to try some things out. So I landed.

I looked at my hands. I wanted to get as much detail as I could. The fingers this time were all normal. There were a few purple ink smudges on my hand (in the dream I blamed them for some I had gotten in real life, but I actually didn't have any IRL). The spots would come and go, kind of like when you look at a bright light and for the next minute you see a spot of color in front of your eyes that moves around as you move your eyes.

I could also see the ridges and finger prints on my hand and fingers. I felt satisfied at the detail I was seeing.

I looked at my clothes. I was wearing my long sleeve brown shirt (again) and my blue Levis... and blue flip flops (which I don't own in real life).

I flew around again and did December's Basic Lucid Task...which I just wanted to try and see if I could. I guess I have to leave out the details here, until the Tasks are made public. I was surprised how easy it was and knew that if I became lucid in December it would be no problem to repeat.

Then things get fuzzy.

I think I flew around some more until I came to two guys. I thought, "I'm wasting this LD. I need to do something interesting". I looked at the guys again. They were both old-ish. I looked at the younger of the two. He was in his late forties, balding and had crooked teeth. And he didn't look to happy to see me hovering in front of him and staring at him like that.

But I thought, "What the heck." So I came close to him and thought I would give him a little kiss. But instead, our teeth clanked and he pushed me away.

I thought , "Okay, that was a bad idea." and flew again.

I eneded up in this large castle like building. I can't remember details, but I remember walking out of a room and out on a balcony. I looked over the edge. I was up many stories. There were rocky fields below. I thought about letting myself fall off backwards like I had done before--because it is really a test of courage to just fall back like that.

But instead I took this moment to stop and think. I thought back on this LD and was afraid I would never remember all I did. I thought about finding a paper to write it down, thinking that maybe the review in my mind might help when I woke up. But I decided not to because I thought that might take too long.

So I looked back off the balcony again. And that's when I remembered I owed CoLd BlooDed a flight. I looked around and hoped he would just show up there on the balcony with me. When he didn't I stared at the stone wall and concentrated on making him materialize out of nowhere. That also didn't work.

Frustrated, I looked back down at the ground and focused on a rock. I then picked it up with my mind and threw it as far as I could.

I did that to a second rock...and a third. I was rather impressed with myself because I had never remembered being able to do that in a dream. I thought about other powers I might want to try. I thought about how Oneironaut gathered all this energy in him and did something cool with it...but I couldn't remember exactly what he had done (decided I would read about it again when I woke up).

I think I just decided to fly again. I realized that there was music playing. It was a lot like Handel's Hallelujah Chrous--but not quite.

I decided I just wanted to fly fast and high. I sometimes have trouble going either fast or high. So I did what I read about on this website about picturing rockets coming out of my feet. As soon as I thought that I heard a low roar and left myselt surge forward a bit. But then it slowed again.

And it was somewhere around here that I woke up. And when I looked at the clock it said 8:04.

My first dream of the night, though, was a DV member dream. No details. But I remember talking to both CB and Ranma . About what, I don't remember.

12-8-06

Dream 1:

Hey-- A Dream View Member Dream! And this one was about....Vex Kitten.

I am going to apologize in advance--this is somewhat a non eventful dream, very unlike the dreams VK is used to.

So in the dream I am reading the DV board and see that VK has posted a link to some music. I go to the link and find that is is some of the most beautiful tener sax music I have ever heard. I am very interested in knowing if that is her playing the sax. I try to PM her to ask her about it, but it doesn't seem to work.

So I spend the rest of the dream talking to other DV members (though no one I can specifically remember) about VK's music and all speculating whether it is actually her playing.

12-15=06


All right. I had a dream last night that I am somewhat reluctant to post here. It is one of those dreams that makes me out to be as "ridiculous" and "nerdy" as I could possibly be. But I am thinking that maybe it would be a good thing to write. I know there are several people here that have this mistaken view that I am rather "cool". And maybe I am finding it hard to have to live up to that expectation...and maybe that is where this dream came from.

Anyway....it is also a DV member dream....with Oneironaut...again.

The phone rings and it is one of Oneironaut's friends. I talk to him for a while, but I don't remember what we were talking about-- except that I think he was trying to talk me into coming and seeing O in person.

Then I was with a group of noisy people, and I was having trouble hearing. I was outside, so I walked over in front of my neighbors' house so I could hear better. I was still having to talk loud. Suddenly the front door of that house opens and it is O's friend that I am on the phone with. He had heard me talking loudly and knew I was outside his door.

I thought, "How could I have forgotten that O and his friends lived next door??"

I walked to the door with the friend. He went in to call for O to come out and meet me.

So I am standing there and I suddenly reach up and touch my hair. I realize that I have five very messy lopsided ponytails in my hair that not only look like a child put them in, but they are ratty like I had slept on them for several days.

I also suddenly realize that my eye make-up is smeared halfway down my cheeks.

And if that wasn't bad enough, I notice that I am wearing pants about 10 sizes too big, and that I am having to hold them up.

I thought, "There is no way I am going to meet O looking like this." I hear O coming down the hall. So I turned and started running back toward my house. But the pants are so big that I can only go a couple of steps before I have to stop to pull them back up.

I hear O calling for me to come back. But I am so humiliated so I keep trying to run and pull up my pants.

I get to my house and realize that now O knows that I live next door and that sooner or later I will have to face him.





Oh my gosh....could a dream be any worse.....LOL......

This dream totally exposed me for the nerd that I am.....<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

Tuesday night:

I had another DV member dream. And yes, Oneironaut, it was you.....again. See what you get for being the first person to befriend me on this site. And actually I think it was the fact that I went to bed quite soon after your PM-- you must have still been on my mind. I am surprised at how much I remember for it being the first dream of the night.

Dream 1:

I was sitting and talking to Oneironaut. In this dream he was a really talented drummer. We were talking about music and what he had been doing on the drums. He then showed me a new drumset he had just gotten. One of the drums was a very large and unusual looking. It was more oval in shape, tapering down to the bottom. It was also very ornate--lots of color and designs on the sides.

The dream suddenly makes a drastic jump. O and I are getting on what looks like large pirate ship (like the Black Pearl). O is one of the Captains (along with Jack Sparrow, who unfortunately I never did see). We set sail....and are out on the open sea.

Suddenly the ship lurches to a halt. I've seen the movie. I know what this means. I try to stay calm. I tell everyone that our only hope of survival is to abandon ship. That it is going to be attacked by a huge monster....but that it won't attack us if we leave the ship.


I remember jumping into the water. The next thing I remember is hanging onto some of the debris from the now destroyed ship. I have no idea who is left alive.

(Sorry, O--I don't know if you made it )

12-29-06

Dream 1:

On the verge of being Lucid...

I don't remember anything but the very end. It was also a very very short DV member dream.....about pj--who I really don't know except that his dream journal is always up there with mine.

All I remember is holding some kind of electronic "thing" It looked a little like a cell phone, but wasn't. It belonged to pj. Suddenly I spilled something on it and totally ruined it. I was horrified at what I had done.

But then I thought, "Wait a minute. This is a dream. I don't have to deal with this." So I woke myself up.

Duh!!

It all happened so instantaneously that I didn't have time to realize what I was doing.

This is what I used to do in my youth. I think that's why I was able to pick up on LDing so fast in my adulthood.
