I RC on clouds now (or strange colours during sunset), in elevators (got stuck in one last week, for half an hour ) and on some random occasions. But you're right, I should definitely RC on horses!

Hey Sara! I leave for a week and so much happens in your journal I can't possibly catch up. I'll have to start from this point on.

Sorry about your sad dream with your sister's horse dying. Those are tough dreams to have.

No problem, Raklet. I have had the same problem when I was away for several days. People here dream too much

Sorry about your sad dream with your sister's horse dying. Those are tough dreams to have.

Yeah, maybe I should look for a meaning behind this dream. Dying people in a dream is usually not related to death.

Haha, no, you're not But my ex is never really mean in dreams.

ah no that sounds like a very sad dream there hope that it didnt affect your day to much

No, luckily it didn't.
Since I've started journalling, those dreams seem to have less impact on me after waking. Plus, the recall of this night was pretty vague anyway

Dreams on 14 March 2008

Weird shop with stealing kids

I'm in a shop with many 'budget' items (it's called 'Action' in Holland, with cheap towels, toys, some food etc) Some racks are almost empty. I see a lot of open packages with a few chocolate eastern eggs left. I want to eat one, but don't dare to just take it. A little girl appears and she starts eating all the loose candies. (haha, I was like that when I was a 4 year old ) I try to stop her, cause she eats them all and doesn't leave any for me

Then, I go looking for a soft towel to bring to my grandma. (strange: a lot of towels in my dreams lately) But they all look old and used, or are very expensive (like € 35 for a towel).

back to school
I'm in a school class with young kids, age around 10. They are making some sort of test and I join them, for fun. But I do very bad at the test! I get a new test and there is a lot of tumult in the classroom. We start about an hour later and I complain that 2 hours is not enough to complete the test.
Suddenly, my table has turned into a small book shelf and it's collapsing. I frantically try to prevent things from falling. The teacher comes over to me and asks if everything is OK. I pretend like I can handle it, but actually I don't.

*scene shift*

I'm looking in an old cabinet which contains items from my past. Like very old books from my mother when she was young. Felt a bit melancholic.

WBTB semi-WILD: powerless

My boyfriend woke me up at 7:30 and I didn't have any appointments this morning, so I decided I could sleep another hour and see if I could get lucid.

And so I did I didn't feel myself falling asleep, so don't know if it counts for a real WILD. When I realise I'm dreaming, I'm very very tired. My body wants to go to sleep, but I manage to plug my nose and keep breathing which helps me stay awake. It takes some time before I get out of bed.

I enter the living room, which looks very similar to RL (same furniture, but on different places). I think 'hmm, I might as well look in the closets". There's many Donald Duck pockets (just like IRL) and a massive collection of old vinyl disks (dunno English name, we call them LPs). There's a door in the closet and I try to open it, but as I pull backwards, it slides away sideways, exposing only more vinyl disks.

My vision fades and in the dark, I start touching a table. I'm amazed by how real it feels and the vision comes back.

I walk over to the window (always a good place to exit) but when I look down, it's much higher than normal and I'm afraid to fly out. I see Parkman (from Heroes) walking towards my building. "Hey, Parkman! Matt!" I yell. He looks up, rather annoyed and see he's following some evil guy. They start shooting small fireworks from their hands. Tiny, golden missiles. 1 comes after me, but just misses me. As the fireworks explode in the air, they make very nice fractal-patterns. I don't know who the evil is (at least it wasn't sylar). I try to help Parkman by shooting from my hand, but nothing comes out

Back inside, my vision fades again. I start touching the wall, it feels a bit soft and lumpy and I see there are small golden foam pieces attached to it. As I rub them, they fall off and I'm standing in a golden rain.

Time to get outside. I leave the livingroom and find a woman on a bike with a girl on the backside. I recognise the girl, but not the woman, though she looks very familiar. I ask her 'who are you?'. The girl says "I'm Evi". "Yeah, I knew that, but you're a very young Evi", I say. (Evi is my nickname, but this girl is the only real Evi I know)
The woman says "I'm Marc-Marie". Noo, that can't be! He's a guy and he's very ugly IRL. You look more like my mum or my grandma when she was younger.

When I get to the stairs, I see 2 pairs of legs lying on the ground, just behind the door. I take a look, afraid of 2 dead bodies, but it's just my boyfriend and my friends boyfriend. They were sleeping together, cheek to cheek, holding arms around each other (lol, they sometimes make fun like that, acting a bit gay-ish )

I walk don the stairs, old, wooden stairs that spiral down. At some point, they are very narrow. I don't fly, I really walk down. At the bottom, there's a young boy. I want to impress him, saying 'I can float down the stairs'. But as I do, I fall on my back and just lay there, not floating anywhere

The front door is a few metres away. I try my TK power to open it, but all I get is a visual impression of a (my?) hand around the door knob which doesn't have any power. I feel too 'realistic' to have any powers in this dream.

Outside the weather is now beautiful! Sun is shining and the environment looks like an old French village. I walk on a covered sidewalk/terrace. At the end of the sidewalk, I see a famous horserider practising on a black horse (yeah, black horse again!)



I walk past a restaurant, they have tiny fountains on the table (the size of a large cup) and there's a larger fountain on the other side, near a pillar. The fountain has the shape of a horse-head (I like this detail ). On Lucid Crossroads I read that putting your hands in cold water felt really funny, so I stick my hands under the running water, but don't feel much. That's a disappointment. As I don't feel anything, the dream fades and I wake up

Oops, very long story I see now. Well, it lasted pretty long, I think about 10 minutes real time. And there were so much interesting details, couldn't leave them out Still, I feel a bit disappointed about my lack of powers. My task for next time: jump off a high building! (maybe backwards) and practise TK again.

Nice recall! It seems like you did a good job of being calm, walking around and observing things. I need to do that more often.

We call vinyl disks "LPs" too if they are the big ones ("45s" if they are the small ones), or just "records".

Jep, it's those big black disks. Haha, I thought LP stood for 'langspeel plaat' (longplay disk) but now I think maybe it just stands for LongPlay...

And yeah, I was really calm in that dream, no exciting action like Caradon normally has. I didn't have a real plan either. But it was nice to be able to re-stabilise my dream twice.

Sounds like the tv show "Are you smarter than a fifth grader?" Do you get that show in Holland?

Exactly what we call them - that or "records".

Ah you managed to get into a closet! nice one! do you have loads of LPs in real life? I have never seen one for years!

great details in this dream sara! Those fractal patterns sound like they were spectacular!

Shame about the lack of TK in that one although I laughed when you fell on your back ha ha!

oh and sara really try that jumping off something high! it really is the most incredible feeling!

That black horse does seem to be very significant to you.

Yeah, just jump. What's the worst that can happen?

Oh I missed that before--bummer about the elevator but definitely an RC time.

Yes it means Long Playing ? I think.

Something funny for the old people here in Sara's Journal (you know who you are); you know that noise when a needle scratches across a record, and they use it all the time like in ads, to indicate a sudden stop? They quizzed people in their 20's and younger to see if they knew what that sound was. They knew what it meant, but they didn't know where it came from or what it was. Isn't that funny?

lol yeah I know the one, it usually occurs in movies when there is a party or something going on and someone says something completely unfunny then there is that noise followed by silence

Yeah, we do. It's called 'are you smarter than a kid' (in Dutch). Haha, reminds me of the dumb blonde american:

Haha, I think it's typical for kids to do this stuff. Hard time for the parents to teach them

ah it looks like the stress of your exams finally came into your dreams eh?

I haven't had many exam dreams before. My mum tells me she has them so often... I hope I don't get them more often when I get older!

I hate that tired feeling! thats exactly how it is for me but only when I get lucid in my bed its so hard to do stuff isnt it, its like you have to force yourself to do stuff

Maybe it's cause you still ARE tired? I mean, you're sleeping, if you would wake up for real, you'd probably still feel tired, wouldn't you?

Ah you managed to get into a closet! nice one! do you have loads of LPs in real life? I have never seen one for years!

No, I don't have any, but my dad has loads of them

Shame about the lack of TK in that one although I laughed when you fell on your back ha ha!

so powerless... still need some practising I guess.

oh and sara really try that jumping off something high! it really is the most incredible feeling!

Well, french guys are a bit gay-ish after all

Were you jealous?

Nah, I'm used to them doing that As long as he's like that with a guy and not with a girl

That black horse does seem to be very significant to you.

True, and it gets more and more intruiging!
Especially since my own horses are white and brown, not black.

Hehe, still didn't get lucid in an elevator...

Hmmm, I don't know exactly what sound you are talking about, but when I hear it, I'll remember what you said MB!

Sorry, I'm not really in dream-reply-mood right now. Had a good weekend (friend visiting with her horse ).
Some interesting dreams and a very short lucid.

Friday night:

I was on a skate tour through my city. We were holding kitchen chairs (the ones with high legs) to hold our balance. I was skating uphill, around a 'valley' where a huge ship sailed. The hill was too steep at a certain point. I tried to climb up, pulling myself up on golf grips (I work with them, making horse training sticks and just ordered a bunch the night before) but they started rolling downhill.

Saturday night:

There was a fair, where I had a booth to sell my stuff. First, it was a very small space, but on a good location. Then, the place was taken by someone and I got mad at the organisation. I got a new place, which was HUGE and didn't have enough items to fill the place. There were several people helping to decorate my booth. I had a rack with clothing, nice light and darkblue shirts. All the time, I knew I had to go back home to pick up more items to sell.

The T-shirts on the rack were inspirational, I should have new T's to sell on my next fair. And I loved the colours, again!

I was helping a small girl with a big horse. She wanted to put a bridle on and then I refused to help her, cause I don't work with a bit. As I walked back to my booth, I saw my precious scissors lying in the mud. I was annoyed/angry (at myself?) Why were they there?? (lol, they cost me a fortune, but they are the perfect tool for working with polyester ropes)

Funniest dreamsign noticed and worst end of a lucid
Back in my booth, I was suddenly in a small room. As I walked outside, I yelled 'look, I can pull myself off the ground on my trousers' and as I did, I knew I was dreaming
I plugged my nose and took a deep breath, to stabilise the dream. (dunno why, but it works )

Then, I found myself in my parents house. I looked out of the window and was a few stories high (unlike IRL) I had the intention of flying out, but the windows were small. Then try the back door. On my way there, a pot of powdered sugar hoovered in the air. I focussed and TK moved it in my hand, where it turned into a bottle of Drambuie (french liquor).

The back door was locked, so I first tried to push myself through a small window, but it was too small for me. I tried to phase through, but it felt too solid. So, I turned back and took the key from a drawer. I remembered thingking "It's a good thing that the key is there in a dream as well" and I thought, "this must be about 3 minutes dream time, I wonder if it feels the same when I wake up. Just when I put the key in the lock, my alarm went off

Well, I'm glad I got lucid again and had a little TK power. The dream felt really REAL. The house looked exactly like IRL, except for it being higher above the ground. I have the feeling that stabilising my dream by plugging my nose and often touching objects, will help me to get longer lucids.


Sunday night:

Grandma in the car
I had stopped on the side of a highway and was looking on the map (Tobby was also in the car). My grandma was in another car, parked on a highway. I thought she wasn't able to drive anymore, but didn't feel like 'rescueing' her
4 uniformed ladies walked towards us, I got a little scared. They wore short skirts and looked like policewomen, but they were from the salvation army they told me I should quickly move on. I made an excuse for stopping there and drove away. I ended up in a strange, old looking town in Hungary.

Dreaming of Reality Checks, but not getting lucid

I was in someones bedroom and this guy was performing a reality check. He opened his closet (it was filled with clothes and had 4 shelves) then closed it and opened it again, now it had only 3 shelves and less clothes. I said 'well, for a good RC, the difference should be bigger. I looked in the next closed and saw it looked exactly like the first time the closed opened. I said "hmm, normally things aren't stable like this in dreams and you can't see the same thing twice" . I took a sweater from the closet, it fitted me well.

There was some scene in an old house (in this hungarian town) where I walked up the stairs, saw some handsome guy and started kissing him. Then I saw my boyfriend around the corner and quickly headed over to him. He showed me he had a sore throat, I told him this was because of smoking too much (which he doesn't). We went over to a next hall, that was like a theatre. Some more weird details here (like stocks of playing cards).

Bu has a "dreem maka". Sounds like you've got a "money maka" rolling around inside there! Hope the idea is a hot seller.

ha ha thats just bad luck! its funny cos I had something similar last night

Good job on those last couple of Lucids. Looks like things are coming back to you. They were fun to read.

Oh, did you really get stuck in an elevator for half an hour? Now that would have been scary.

Originally Posted by raklet

Good idea, too bad he wasn't around this time. I only had my skates on (the ones I use for horse-skating) and a stupid chair.

LOL, I had another great idea yesterday (didn't post the dream, dunno if it's still worth posting) which was really innovative. My mind is indeed creative lately.

Originally Posted by mark

I thank several people around here for getting more action into my dreams. It's defly induced by inspiring journals!

question though whats a golf grip?

A golf grip is this rubber thing that is on top of a golf club. I use them on other sticks, to make training sticks for the horses.

nice one on the lucid sara, it looks like your subconscious is being awkward with the hight thing almost like its teasing you by putting you up high yet denying you the ability to test or overcome the fear

Hehe, that's a nice way of putting it...
It could be partly from reality (I live on 11th floor) but every time in a lucid I'm several floors above ground level. It used to be an easy take off for flying, but I got scared of that after several 'crashes' and now I can't even get out to fly.

shame about the alarm! I bet that was annoying

Oh, it really was. I was angry with Tobby that morning, while I was half asleep. Sorry Tobby, I didn't want to make you feel bad about this

It was about time...
I did a lot of RCs lately and it looks like it's going to pay off.
Good to hear you liked them
I often think the dreams are too long to be a good read, but I don't want to forget details myself either.

Oh, did you really get stuck in an elevator for half an hour? Now that would have been scary.

Yep, luckily I wasn't alone in there!

Dreams on 19 March 2008

Full night of lucidity And I kissed Moonbeam
So, this is what it feels like to be a 'natural', I guess.
3 lengthy lucids in a row, almost an hour in total. And so much happened, I can never tell all things that happened, so I try to tell the funniest parts.

The night started with a failed WILD attempt (failed as in: Just turned to my side and fell asleep)

Elevator crash
It was early in the evening as I came back to my flat. Outside, on a small parking space next to the road, my 'boyfriend' was going to bed. I kissed him goodnight and told him 'hope to see you soon!'
I got into the elevator, a very narrow, claustrophobic elevator with light brown walls. Inside, I did a nose RC and was instantly lucid. Then the elevator started to drop! I didn't want to crash, so I thought "it's only in my mind, it's not going to crash, it must have a safety lock somewhere..." This worked and slowed it down. I couldn't get out yet, so I slowly let it down a bit, until we were halfway on a floor (hehe, defly PDP from the time I was stuck in the elevator). I got out and into a cosy room. First thought was 'get outside and fly' but as I saw all these people sitting around, I wanted to talk to them. I tried to convince them they were dreaming as well.

"Plug your nose and try to breath" I told them. They did, but asked "Now what, what's the fun of dreaming". Yeah, good question.... Well, we could stuff ourselves with M&M's without getting fat IRL I opened a yellow bag and took a big hand, but the M&M's were tasteless and disappeared inside my mouth. What a bummer, I'd have liked some chocolate.

I had a short conversation with several DCs. Then some of them started doing hand-stand against the wall. They didn't know how exactly to perform this (the game kids play, stand against the wall with several kids, where the first one needs to spread her legs wide, so others can 'fill in) I knew how to do this, but didn't dare cause standing on my head would probably kill my dream. I observed them for a while, which was a pretty funny sight. These grown-ups who couldn't do handstands very well

Then, a girl asked me to do a somersault. I thought 'what the heck, I can't fall anyway' but I had the feeling it would kill my dream. And so it did (speaking of negative self expectation, which my mind is full of)

I woke up in my old bed, with Moonbeam next to me. "Ahhh, Moonbeam! Listen, I just had a great lucid!" I started telling her what I'd just done. I was really excited (btw, I spoke in English to her).
I looked up through the window (a 45 degree tilted window, in the roof) and saw a cat flying towards the room. It landed on the room and looked evil. I opened and closed the window (so it fell off?) but when I closed it, water poured in from the roof. It soaked my carpet and I felt sorry for my parents who had to clean it up

I continued talking to Moonbeam, but in Dutch now. Quickly realised my mistake and continued in English. I didn't know the word for salto ('somersault'), so MB finished my sentence. I was happy she understood me. And then I woke up for real. Wow, that was a disappointment!

It was 5:10 now. Time for more sleep

**
Kissing Moonbeam

Second dream, I was sitting in a bed, on the corner of a street. MB was again in the bed with me, as was a girl I dreamed about yesterday. I told her: "Hey, I dreamed about you." and then I saw Moonbeam and said "yeah, I dreamed about you too!". Then we had a short conversation. I said: "You look much younger then I expected" and she replied that she was 27 yo. Ohhh, that's not old at all, only 2 years older than me. MB looked very pretty, she had semi-long dark brown straight hair and a happy smile on her face.

Then I had the feeling something wasn't quite right about this situation. I plugged my nose and could breath. Instantly lucid again. I said "Moonbeam, look, this is a dream again! We can do whatever we want" and then I kissed her (don't ask why it was just a small kiss, no full blown lesbian acts, LOL). I wanted to fly away, but couldn't take off. So I pulled myself up via my pants and hovered just above the ground.

A man was following me and I wanted to get away from him. I jumped up to a bridge over the street, about 4 meters high and could barely hold on to the edge. I swung off, hoping to catch some air, but I landed on top of a rose tree. It stinged me and I had many cactus needles in my hand. It hurt when I pulled them out, but the pain disappeared when they were all out.

Suddenly, I was in a sort of club house. Everything looked very real and familiar. A friend was with me. We were walking around and I didn't have a good inspiration for things to do. I smashed some items (seems to be a lucid hobby for me). It was pretty dark inside, so I wanted to make it lighter. Shouting 'light, sunshine' didn't work, so I got creative took a lightbulb from the kitchen and streched it to the lenght of a TL tube. But this didn't increase it's brightness, so the big room was still dark

2 guys came in and were annoying us. I pushed them out of the door, realising it was my dream so I could be stronger than them. I liked one of them and told him "you look cute, you can kiss me if you like" but he didn't and fled outside (lesson learned: never tell a guy he looks cute, it destroys their feeling of manliness ) I locked the door, but the lock didn't really hold.

I had a discussion with the other girl, whether this was real or not and that we shouldn't destroy things in here. I said 'we can prove it's not real' so I smashed some more glasses and stuff The boys stormed in again, the bigger, ugly one tried to attack me and kick me, but I took his foot and twisted it so he fell on the ground. Then I squeezed his nuts, to hurt him even more. LOL, he had big respect for me after that Never felt powerful like that in a dream.

When we walked out, I realised I had forgotten to take advantage of 'eating all you can get' but the only food there was, were some dried plums. Well, they tasted much better than the M&Ms! All juicy and full of flavour.

I woke up again, it was ony 6:44 so I had half an hour of sleep left.

Old Faithfull - completely lucid dream

The next dream I entered fully lucid, I lay in my bed, pinching my nose and kept breathing. I realised I had already fallen asleep, but I was soooo tired. I forced myself to get up and then the scenery changed. I was in USA, near the 'Old Faithfull' with my familiy. We were in the information room, it was pretty crowded. I looked forward to see the Old Faithfull and talked about it with a girl. I said "you know, it goes up to 70 metres high." "Nooo, only 69 metres," she replied (argh!) "well, that's ALLMOST 70 metres then."

We headed to a wall with a very small tap. It had water from the Old Faithfull which you could drink. Around the tap were video screens with information. On a brass plate was written that you should make a donation of $ 2,49 after drinking the water. I thought 'well, with the cheap dollar, it's not a big amount in Euros'.

I didn't get to see the Old Faithfull, cause I was distracted by a rumour there were goat and donkey rides outside. I went there and saw a very skinny brown goat. He looked sad and sort of telepathically spoke to me. I looked down and saw his legs were chopped off just below the knee, YUCK! I looked for the owner, who looked rather ignorant/disinterested about the goat. I got angry at him, but then he threw an axe at me. It landed in the bonnet? of a fancy blue car (hehe, more damage!) I wanted to pull it out and swing it back at him, but it got really stuck in the car.

I escaped inside (back in the information room) where my mum told me we had to leave. What? Leave now? "Yeah, we need to get some sleep", she told me. "Hell no, I'm dreaming now, so I'm already asleep. I'm not going home with you." I was more 'aware' of my lucidity now, where in the previous part I was more 'going with the flow'.

Shooting electricity from my hands
I left through a corridor and started practicing shooting electricity from my fingertips. Instead of pointing at something, I decide to start small: holding my index fingers close together and make a small blue spark appear between them. I can gradually hold them further apart, till about 50 cm. (1,5 foot) 2 people are following me now, they look a bit like Maya and her brother (Heroes season 2) but I don't recognise them as such.

The guy is impressed by my ability and asks me how I do that. "Oh, I've learned that from Elle," I say, "just by watching her on TV". I wonder what else I can do with the sparks. I hold a hand on each side of the boys head and think/say "you will be my follower". It works, he follows me and starts saying 'ohh, my baby, my darling'. The girl is not happy with this at all, I stole her boyfriend and I feel uncomfortable about the situation. I make a new spark and say a new spell "you'll follow HER now". And so he fell in love with her

I leave them and find myself on the exit of a train station, on top of the stairs. The weather is really bad, it's raining cats and dogs and there's a strong wind. Wow, nice, I get wet by the rain. That's a first. And the wind is ideal for flying! I think of an advice I read on DV and let myself be picked up by the strong wind. I fly with both arms in front and gain some altitude. As I fly through the city, I see a big brown bear at the banks of a river. Nice to see some reminder of Caradon around here

And then it's finally time to wake up for real at 7:15.
OMFG, this was my longest night ever, I've done so much, it felt like several days. But I was very well rested. So, ehm, I can understand if you don't read all of it. And now I just feel stupid for not even attempting one of Nothin7's tasks

crap sara you are a legend!

Did it really hurt when you fell into that tree? thats not nice. It appears you confidence in these dreams seem to be down. You seem to have alot of trouble flying rescently, its probably best not to think to much about doing it and just do it kind of like that quote from the matrix "dont think you are, know you are"


he he I am beginning to find you destrustion ofthe dream environment massivly amusing ha ha . lol at the cute comment and brilliant you managed to kick some arse in your dream

Why do we always try that?

That's a good idea! But maybe in a dream I could understand.

And I did!

I love you, you can kiss me anytime.

We can do whatever we want" and then I kissed her (don't ask why it was just a small kiss, no full blown lesbian acts, LOL).

I don't hold you responsible for any dreams that you have about me, especially when you dream how pretty and young I am.

When we walked out, I realised I had forgotten to take advantage of 'eating all you can get' but the only food there was, were some dried plums. Well, they tasted much better than the M&Ms! All juicy and full of flavour. [/quote[

Prunes...better than M&M's....

That's still a lot for a drink of water!

No wonder that poor goat had his legs cut off, with such a violent owner.
