Jamal's 2nd Life

**Jamal** · 10-29-2007 04:09 PM

I have decided to start a lucid dream journal.

Normal Dream
Lucid Dream
Dream Sign
Re-occurring Dream

To all the noobs out there:
FA = False awakening
LD = Lucid Dream
WILD = Wake Initiated Lucid Dream
DILD = Dream Initiated Lucid Dream

Peace, Jamal

EDIT: I've decided to change to a lucid only dream journal for various reasons.

I attempted a WILD this morning with amazing results! Last night I just knew I'd have an LD. I got new covers and sheets for my bed and it was so comfortable. In the morning I woke with bad recall of a cruddy dream where I gave an old skateboard away to my friend. I was disappointed but it was still early. So i decided to try the WILD. As I was going to sleep I was picturing a scene of these pirates on a boat. Soon I could hear them chanting HO HO HO etc. Then suddenly I felt sleep paralysis come over me!! I woke up in excitement. "DAMN IT better try again." So I pictured the boat again and before I knew it SP WOOT
So this time I didn't panic... I thought hmmm picture a scene. So I pictured this scene with a road and some grass of each side. There were people on the grass with booths set up.. And there were fires on the ground (it was night time) I rolled my self into this dream and BAM I was there... I didn't reality check right away because it was just obvious I was dreaming. I walked over to the trees and appreciated how real they were than looked at the ground. DAMN The dream started fading already... NO! I thought.... "clarity now" I shouted and nothing happened. But in the next couple seconds wow did it ever get clear!! I now appreciated everything so much more... The fires were so real and the trees.. I remembered billybobs post which said for more clarity kneel to the ground and use all 5 senses. I felt the rough gravel on the ground, And listened to the people in the booths. I heard one conversation which went something like "OMG I am so grounded!!" Then I stopped listening. I then looked at my hands and noticed on both hands my middle and ring fingers were glued together... I forgot to check the rest of my senses and got up. I then decided... hmm time to fly!! So I remembered about passive control and thought... Didn't it say on the news it's possible to fly now due to a shift in gravity? So I jumped up and started to flap my arms like a bird. It wasn't really working... I would just about 10 feet up, hover for a bit, than fall hard on the bottoms of my feet. I tried a couple times than thought forget about it. I then saw this really cool red tree I wanted to feel. The problem is there was a small river and a clothes line in the way. In order to get to the tree I would have to practice my flying! So I ran and flew over the river and clothes line with ease and landed straight on the tree. At this point the dream was fading. I thought to myself... Awesome.. It really worked

Wow am I ever happy!

Last night I had a boring Non lucid where my dog ran away. Eventually I woke up in the morrow and decided to try the WILD method. I felt SP and woke up.... So i tried again... Once again I felt SP (the most intense SP I've ever felt) This was quite the experience... I heard screaming screeching and felt the craziest violent sensations... I wasn't scared at all... Actually i was quite amazed!! Next thing I know I felt a hand grabbing my hand and i heard voices saying get up. I was being pulled up to my feet by a crowd of gangsters. They were treating me like their ring leader and immediately I knew I was dreaming. I tried the hand RC but I was being held by two gangsters (I was seeing in 3rd person) than I realized the guy I was looking at wasn't even me so I raised my own hand and looked at it. I had about 12 fingers and half my hand was purple... I clearly knew I was dreaming so I once again (like always) started admiring the realism of this dream.. But then OH NO it started fading. I yelled "clarity now"
but not loud enough!! I woke up and my brother and sister were on a brand new computer in my room. I was like "When did we get this" and they were like this morning man... So I'm like guys I had another LD!! and my sister is like "How are you sure you not still dreaming?" then BAM I woke up for real.... I HATE FALSE AWAKENINGS!! lol... but hey another WILD YAY!!

Wow.. did you have all the sensations of a WILD! But what was great was that you KNEW what was happening, you didn't freak out and actually rode the experience into lucidity!

Bravo! :bravo:

**Jamal** · 10-31-2007 03:28 PM

Thanks a lot...

Yeah for some reason it feels like I got WILD's pretty good... I've attempted 3 and succeeded each time... And I actually enjoy the SP experience... When it comes over me I know how to slip into a dream well... I can even craft the scene

(Well i did once)

Another extremely short LD

This morning I attempted the WILD with my best WILD success yet!!! I felt a very brief wave and therefore thought it didn't work... But eventually I found my self in my grandparents house somehow non lucid with Ryan and Neville(best friends). I don't know how but I suddenly became lucid.

It just clicked and I was like "hey guys this is a dream!!" And Ryan was like wait... "so we're all dreaming right now!??!" I'm like "I don't know if you are but I sure am!!" so they told me to show me something... There was an annoying guy in the room and I thought I'd try to shoot him... So I yelled gun asuming a gun would appear in my hand.... no success....louder... GUN!!.... no success.....GUN!!!! wasn't working so I decided to shoot the guy with my bare hand... Bang I shot him dead... I heard the police were on their way so I proposed an epic shootout to my friends... they agreed. Since the forced control didn't work I thought this time I'd try some passive... So I open a cupboard expecting guns to be in there... But there was only cap guns!! So I'm just like forget about it.. The cops are coming.. And time to make this thing the clearest it's ever been!! So I started to feel a table... Right away the visuals became infinitely clearer!! I then saw a box of honey bunches of oats cereal... I decided to smell it to further increase the lucidity.. WOW DID THIS THING EVER SMELL REALISTIC!!! The dream then faded into a FA

But hey!!! Another WILD!! and another LD in general!!!!!!!!!!!
Btw... I have been in active for the last couple days due to a friend be terminal.... Just telling you I'm not quitting!

Did you say that your friend is terminal? If so, I'm so sorry!

**b12** · 11-11-2007 02:34 AM

I'm so envious of you! Nice work on becoming lucid!

**Jamal** · 11-12-2007 04:10 AM

Thanks everyone (and yes clairity... It's a family friend

)

Again I'm so sorry.. and I wish you both peace.

**The Cusp** · 11-13-2007 01:13 AM

Greeting fellow Ontarian!

I like how you were feeling the table and smelling the cereal to maintain lucidity. Seriously, those are both good techniques. I usually just resort to the feeling of movement, but the more elements you focus on the better. I'm going to have to remember to try those next time!

I had a lucid dream yesterday morning Via WILD... The reason I'm recording it now is because I was at Stevie Wonder concert all day!!! Anywho here it goes

Felt Sp and all the sudden I was looking at my hands outside on a beautiful sunny day. I looked up at the sky... It had the perfect amount of clouds and was simply breathtaking. There was only problem with this dream... There was no audio!! I couldn't find a way to fix it... Anyways.. I started floating which lead to my best flying experience so far!!! It was amazing I flew high and far then landed gently... The dream slowly faded into an FA (like always)

I was satisfied!!

Had another 2 WILDS today!!! Although they were pretty weak with not much control... It was still (as always) extremely fun!! Here goes

1st one: After all the usual sensations I found my self looking at my hands... I was lucid!! One thing I found funny is my hands and arms (and presumably my whole body) was white. In real life I'm half black so I laughed out loud and clearly did not need to reality check. I started to walk around and look at the sky (for some reason I do that a lot now) I wasn't paying any attention to my surroundings... Only to the sky. I started to float up and I woke.

2nd: I found myself in my bedroom from my old house... Considering it's demolished I didn't need to RC again. I decided to try out some telekinesis skills, so I found an interesting object on the ground. It was a cardboard box with writing all over it. The first thing I did was throw it up into the air and told myself it would stop in mid air, at which point I would start to turn it rapidly. It worked!! Well half worked... It stopped in mid air for about 2 seconds than fell on my head! I then looked over at a pair of dirty socks on my floor. I stretched my hand out in their direction and imagined pulling them toward me. It worked!! Except when they got to me they had turned into an empty KFC box... All of the sudden I felt my eyes opening and I couldn't fight it... I woke up... (FA) and I thought dang it... Well w/e I had another WILD!! Than I woke up for real.

Why do I always fall for FA's!!! AHH! Anyway YAY 2 more WILDS!!!!!!!!
