Thread: Shared Dreams: See you on the Moon!

I decided to start a new journal thread dedicated to the shared dreams of Raven Knight and I. All these entries are simply posts to directly cut and pasted from our dream journals. If you are able to share dreams with us, and you post it in your DJ, I will cut and paste into this DJ if the entries are similar. (There is one of Man of Shred and I, but we were both non-lucid!)

I am only posting the similar entries.

Please only comments about the entries themselves. Any debates about the existence of shared lucid dreaming, please take elsewhere.

The purpose of this DJ is to showcase our shared dreams, and to encourage others to share dreams, by showing that it's possible. I want this to be available for everyone to learn. I don't want it to be a secret.

Of course, we could be making this whole thing up. But, what if we're not? What if shared dreaming is real?

I have not put Raven Knight's or my username in the title, because this DJ is for anyone that Raven or I share dreams with, as long as it's evidenced by two similar journal entries by two different people.

Settings:

The Moon Initially Raven Knight and I thought this would be a good place to meet, since there would be no other people there. For some reason, there are. After a missed attempt at trying to meet at Stonehenge (because I was unwittingly intercepted by Selene), we have been meeting on the moon ever since.

The Colloseum This is a training ground in what Raven Knight calls the Outer Lands, where people can battle without interference from others

The Void the void is a place of all white, no sound, no ground, no objects, no sky, nothing, in which I perceive myself as faintly flickering flame

Outer Space I have gotten into a few fights in the space between the moon and earth

The Temple of Nothing
The City of Nowhere
The Land of Nod
The Green Moon




Main entities:
Raven Knight - music based magic. Appearing as an assassin in white. Called a witch in dreams. She uses songs to create spells. Summoning lightning, launching fireballs. Healing spells also. Multiplying herself. Creating portals. Summoning horses. Summoning weapons. Teleportation. I am sure she has other tricks up her sleeve that I don't know of yet.
Weapons: variety of close combat weapons.
Armor: Witchblade Armor

Waking Nomad - Nature based magic. Morphing into Pan, god of nature, summoning beasts, morphing into mythical beasts, morphing into elementals. Element bending. Becoming giant. Appearing as a desert nomad in white. I am learning new skills from her all time such as teleportation and summoning weapons. I also have a secret magic taught to me by my dream guide.
Weapons: Variety of close combat weapons, also a white bow, and white arrows, energy gloves
Armor: Winged helmet to give holy protection, an energy belt which forms a force field, energy boots with which to walk on walls

Selene - also called a witch in dreams. Moon based magic. Her magic is silvery white moonlight. Extreme physical agility, speed, and leaping. Teleportation. She first appeared to me as a priestess of Artemis of the Ephesus.
Weapons: Meteor Hammer, daggers, throwing stars, short swords.
She is a lover of mine from past lives.

Spike - Like Spike on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Of course, this is not who he really is, but how Raven perceives him based on her personal archetypes. He is some sort of daywalking vampire, but I don't know much about him as of this writing.

Pixy

Other entities:

Morpheus - the god of dreams, Raven saw him but didn't know who he was

Cerebus - the three-headed dog guarding the entrance to the underworld. Raven perceived him as Fluffy

People on the moon- Raven and I have both perceived other people walking around the moon, but haven't had much communication with them

Q- Q from Star Trek. This is how Raven perceives him. I have had two dreams of him as of the date below. The first dream I did not perceive him, the second one, I heard his voice only.

I will be updating this first entry as our powers in the dream world grow, and we meet new entities on the dream plane.

Update: September 28, 2009

Entities:

Man of Shred: A user on DV. verified by one recalled shared dream, in which we were both non-lucid.

The Ravens

Lonewolf

Pixy

DJ Hope

DJ Mo'o

Stephanie

Sarnox

Tooth aka Gimpy: a disgusting "Nightstalker" who usually appears as a zombie. He makes it look like he is stealing your energy, as a secondary tactic in order to induce fear, and the illusion that he is stealing your energy (as far as I know)
Powers: shapeshifting, altering size, shooting tentacles out of his stomach, and being a generally disgusting thing in order to distract

tkdyos: Raven and I tried to make him lucid, but he was not dreaming at the time. After this experience I decided to hold off on trying to make people lucid.

Other people from the forums:
People that have tumbled out of a portal in a dream, I could not identify them.

The Cusp - his fighting style reminds me of myself. He is skilled at pulling focus
powers: shapeshifting, altering size

Mylynes - he was terrifyingly creepy, is skilled at inducing fear and a madness like confusion
powers: becoming strange shapes, eyes everywhere

one calling itself Shift-from-the-forums
I do not think it was her at all. It may have been one of these Nightstalker people. skilled at inducing pain
powers: aggressive physical attacks, morphing mouth into a snake's mouth

A little history

Raven and I had been on the forums just a few weeks. I PM'ed her after she made a post saying that she had done shared lucid dreaming, and did people think she was crazy. I told her I did not for I did it once myself, though the other person was not aware of me.

We decided to try shared lucid dreaming, and it worked the first time. I was amazed, and it made me wake up. I decided to not be amazed, and the dreams have gotten longer and longer.

I do not know what she looks like in waking life, so that's not necessary. I sent her a video of me playing the didgeridoo, but we had shared lucid's before that. We have not known each other before this, but we were siblings in a past life.

Most of our communication is in dreams. We actually talk more in our dreams than in PM's sometimes. We have only talked on the phone once.

The people you have shared lucids with will probably be people you knew in past lives. You might as well be open to the possibility, because you are going to be reminded of those past lives anyway.

I hope to get as many LD'ers as I can to learn shared lucid dreaming as fast as they can, so I can LD with you, so I guess I kind of write this for selfish reasons.

People Raven and I have shared dreams with:

Man of Shred, mrdeano, majinaki, beachgirl, Warrior Tiger, tkdyo, Walms, mowglycdb, Silverwolf, Robo, Morrigan, King Yoshi



Raven Knight's Dream Travels

Nomad Chronicles

Man of Shred's New Dreams

As of humbling experiences of late, I feel I must post some things I have recently learned. I realize that this is controversial. That is fine if you disagree, but please post that elsewhere.

Shared dreaming is real. I dream of Raven Knight. She dreams of me. The DreamWorld is real. It is not some virtual playground where morality doesn't exist, like a video game where you can choose to be evil. There is more I want to say, but if you are interested in the things I have learned, send me a PM. I may post more in the Deep Dreaming forum.

Sweet dreams, dreamers. I hope to see all of you on the moon.

UPDATE: October 5, 2009

On Making You Lucid:

Recently a few people have sent me PM asking me to make them lucid. Raven Knight and I tried this once. We were successful in locating the person, tkdyos, but he wasn't even dreaming when we got there. Here is that dream. We tried to wake up his dream body, but for him it was an FA. He didn't realize he was dreaming, and he didn't even remember the dream.

After this experience, I decided I was not going to spend my precious dream time trying to make people lucid. Imagine if you had a date, and you drove to her house to pick her up for your fun plans that night, only to find that she was asleep.

I wish I could make people lucid easily. I would fly all over the world doing it all night.

Please read my tutorial. Go through the steps. Learn to make yourself lucid. From now on, when I receive a request to make someone lucid, I will simply ask them to read the tutorial, for nowhere do I say in that to ask me to make you lucid.

I believe people dream share in non-lucid dreams all the time. I did with Man of Shred once as of this writing. Many of those people never become lucid, and never remember their dreams. It's much more difficult to recognize others in dreams when you are not lucid.

First you must learn to increase your dream recall and occurrences of lucidity. There are no shortcuts to shared lucid dreaming. You may learn quickly or slowly.

Raven Knight had many shared lucid dreams before we ever met.
I spent a year of my life doing nothing but working, reading books, and practicing astral projection.

I appreciate excitement, enthusiasm and open-mindedness you have toward shared lucid dreaming. (You must, or you would not be reading this.)

It is a skill that takes time, dedication, and effort. I apologize if in my enthusiasm, I made it seem like such a simple effortless thing. In a way it is, you must learn to do nothing.

In another sense, it must be the only thing you do. I have a very focused mind. Call me obsessed. That's fine. When I am interested in something, it's all I can think about for hours a day for weeks, months, or even years on end.

You may go through pain to achieve your goal. Speaking from my own experience, I had to go through humiliation, confusion, and loneliness, but that is another story. I hope you do not have to go through what I went through. But, I will warn you, the dreamworld is another dimension. It is real. It is not a virtual playground where no one gets hurt.

If you think you are ready, you are not. If you know you are not ready, you are humble enough to learn, not from me, but from your dream guide.

SHARED DREAM PODCAST!

Dreamers (from this plane)
There are are a few main dreamers that I consistently dream with besides Raven Knight:

I am listing myself on here to list my Beast and Shadow Self:

Nomad:
Beast Self: Juargawn, were-jaguar or were-lion.
Shadow Self: Timelyst Knight, Lord of Knight an android in a symbiote suit

Raven Knight
Beast Self: were-jaguar
Shadow Self: Queen of Night, a witch all in black riding a winged black panther

Man of Shred aka MoSh MoSh and I have a lot of non-lucids together for some reason. I usually perceive us in Massachusetts where I used to live, at a couple houses I lived in there, or at bars I used to hang out at. Most of the dreams where I am drinking and smoking cigarettes, I am with him. I don't drink or smoke much now, though.
Beast Self: Roarga'an, a Naga, a great winged serpent
Shadow Self: Werewolf riding a cyborg dog-motorcycle.

Angel Angel is my girlfriend. She doesn't keep a dream journal online, but she remembers a lot of our shared dreams. She believed in shared dreams before I met her. The very first night we met I asked her if she wanted to share dreams, and she said yes. Angel is not her birth name, but, I call her that in dreams most of the time.
Beast Self: Phoenix
Shadow Self: Queen of Twilight, goddess of Dusk and Dawn, a witch wearing black and white riding a winged snow leopard.

Mowglycdb aka Pablo - Pablo often appears as a fox. Anytime you see a fox and a rabbit in one of Raven's dreams, I am the white rabbit.
Beast Self: Fox

Warrior Tiger aka Allison - She is Raven's friend from video game design school. She often appears as a werewolf.
Beast Self: Wolf

Silverwolf aka Jen - I miss this sweet lady. She's Allison's girlfriend. She often appears as a little witch in a cottage or as a werewolf. She mixes up a lot of great magical things to eat and drink.
Beast Self: Wolf

Dreamscape Descriptions:

The Tower
The Tower is a dark obsidian tower rising from the surface of the Moon sitting at the rear of the Biodome. Inside of it is a sick bay, and a control room run but a sentient AI. A telescope sits atop the Tower. The AI is in charge of all the Biodome defenses. There is a spraypainted sign in yellow at the base of the tower that says: Welcome to the Moon! There is a stage in below the sign.

The Biodome
The Biodome is surrounded by a wall of obsidian with Tesla coils spaced at intervals. The Tesla coils create a dome of electricity. At the gate there are two statue golems guarding it. There is a sign that says in multicolored LED's : "Welcome to the Biodome!", and "You are Dreaming!" simultaneously.
Inside the Biodome there are many plants and animals.

Koi Pond- There is a koi pond with a park bench and a large mirror with which Raven can contact me when I am in my Temple.

Living House- I have a house made of a banyan tree, an amazing type of tree with roots that grow down from branches and become trunks when they hit the ground. Inside is a living room, a bedroom, a meditation room, and a greenhouse full of cannabis plants. The meditation room has a small shrine with figurines of different guides of mine, and a mirror which I gaze into.

Temple of Gawn- I, Nomad, perceive this as a dark Gothic cathedral. Inside are pews, and a table with elements. There is a huge stone statue of Gawn, the Dream Warrior Master, holding a mirror.

Mountain- There is a great mountain inside the Biodome with many climates on its vary elevations.

Ocean- There is an ocean at the bottom of part of the mountain.

Hot Springs- There are volcanic hot springs for healing and relaxation.

Glen of Healing- There is a glen in a forest, for healing. When people like down on the soft grass, the grass pushes you up, and you feel like you are floating.

The Land of Nod
On the other side of the Moon, is the Land of Nod, a land covered by lush tropical jungle growing out toward the horizon. It is a wild and dangerous place.

The City of Nowhere- The City of Nowhere rests in the Land of Nod. A stone wall surrounds it, with Easter Island megaliths placed at intervals with lasers that shoot out of their eyes. Hawaiian warriors paddle in a canoe through the sky, and alert against intruders with a conch shell. There is a statue of the god of Nothing that guards the gate.

The Free Market- There is a Free Market where you can buy whatever you want, but, you have to pay with nothing.

The Temple of Nothing- The Temple of Nothing was originally created to be a Temple for me, Juargawn, the jaguar god, the god of Nothing, as a joke, and to show people that anyone can create permanent dreamscapes. It's a great ziggurat. Inside is a scrying bowl and a throne. There is a mirror which is linked to the one by the koi pond in the Biodome. I have since given my DC worshippers sentience, and handed control over to Guargawn, a sentient clone of my Juargawn self.

The Dream Temples- There is a night dream temple to fall asleep in in dreams, and a day dream temple to practice astral projection in dreams. They are both pyramids.

The Combat Pyramid- The combat pyramid is a place to practice combat where no one can get hurt.

The Blacksmith Shop- This is a shop where I create on magical armor and weapons.

The Dark Castle- The Dark Castle lies outside the City of Nowhere, on a mountain in the Land of Nod. It is where I reside as Soulkyst, the vampire.

Q10 Q10 is an asteroid where I have my steampunk shop where I work on electro-magical devices.

This thread is for anyone on DV who has shared dreams, not just Raven Knight and I.

That's about it.
