Update: Accessing old dream memories and creating a portal. - Dream Journals - Dreamviews Lucid Dreaming Community & Resource
Short version:
I "remembered" how to create portals to places far away.
I also remembered where "she" most likely is.
However the place was too far away, my current energy level was insufficient to open a portal safely.
I did however feel like I was supposed to visit her this time, not the other way around, and if I recover some more energy, I should be able to open the portal easily...

I have a quick question: Why do you think distance exists in your dream? If a dream is even more subjective than physical reality, and as far as I'm concerned the DC/SG/whatever you want to call it/her is not in the material world, why should you, in your own mind, be limited by distance? Rather, I'm confused why you associate the "consumption of energy" (I personally don't believe in it and am very materialistic/hard-core athiest, but I have some years of experience with the occult/New Age stuff) with physical distance. At least for me, the notion of "distance" doesn't exist in my dreams; it's only used so that I, the dreamer, will not become utterly confused by the dream's apparent added complexity.Quote:
I want to open a portal but I suddenly realize the place is too far away, I don't have enough energy, at least not right now.
The planet is in the Andromeda galaxy... it is very far away.
I'm curious. Therefore I am not attacking you, Hyu, so don't take my response directly at heart. As aforesaid, I'm just curious on what exactly your beliefs associated with "energy" are.
I have summoned countless number of things in my dreams, have changed my dream-scape a multiple amount of times, morphed my own body for personal reasons (:)), with some other actions I can't think of at the moment. I've never felt tired in my dreams; do you think your perceived feeling of mental fatigue is really just a self-placed illusion?
I'm aware I am offering anecdotal evidence, therefore you are free to disagree.
This reminds me of the famous Morpheus quote: "Do you think that's air you're breathing now?" (from The Matrix)Quote:

I'm writing down all my DJ entries the way I experience the dreams, not the way I rationalize them after waking up.
So, if in my dream, I feel like I can't overcome a distance, I will write down that I couldn't.
This doesn't mean that I think the distance should have played a role after I wake up.
I'm not sure why you relate energy consumption to religions or the occult.
I am an atheist myself, and I don't really know anything about the occult/New Age stuff you've mentioned.
It's just what I experience in my dreams, this is the only way I know how to describe it.
On a side note, the whole concept of being able to fully control my dreams is quite new to me.
Yes, I have had lucid dreams all my life, but I've only read about it like 4 months ago.
Before that, I've never talked to anyone about my dreams.
Ah...The Matrix :)
I just wanted to avoid a flame war. Nasty little things.
No, I understand perfectly what you mean. I used to have a couple of dreams where my vision was frozen in one spot. Didn't make sense whatsoever since I'm only a floating identity in my dreams, but nevertheless I was convinced my eyes were glued. It was only after some reflection and trying out some methods that the symptom went away. Cheers for dreams.
The concept of energy has a high possibility of being supernatural, since for the last century or so there hasn't been evidence of an energy that humans can tap into with their mind. Therefore the concept of energy, its types, usage, et cetera has mostly been explored by the occult/New Age stuff. Usually there's a religious belief attached to the supposed energy practice, so I stay on the safe side by stating I'm an atheist; people start to understand I really am a guy who only has experience, but is not planning to make any new ones with New Age-y stuff. However, you have stated that your view of energy only lies in your dreams; therefore you can disregard my particular comment concerning energy. I wasn't sure you were referring to the New Age definition of energy :P
I know what you mean. The only place I was able to find people who were willing to talk about lucid dreams was when I was 13 (internet). I started lucid dreaming when I was 5, so for the 8 years of ignorance about lucid dreaming I just honed my skills. Of course, my level of control quickly escalated when I researched about lucid dreaming, read some of LaBerge work, and other things of the sort. Good luck on your journey to hone your skills :P Assuming you want to.
Ah yes, I see why you'd make the connection to the occult/New Age stuff then.
I wasn't aware there were such similarities.
It's good to hear I'm not the only one who was ignorant and confused about lucid dreams for that long.
I only heard about it at the age of 24. :/
Yikes! Well, it's better to start somewhere than no where. Can't wait for your next update :)Quote:

I think this is one of the more interesting threads and I credit it with some new and interesting dream activity that I have had. So thanks Hyu
and keep us posted on any developments
and get better soon!
I've done it!!! I'm so happy!
This was SO intense.
Thank you DV, for making me able to dream again, and thank you WakingNomad.
Your DJ is so inspiring, and it gave me the confidence not to doubt everything I experience in my dreams.
Congratulations! Read all of it.
That must be the most wonderful experience I've ever read or heard from anyone. Just incredible, plus it motivates into getting lucids!
Super awesome.
hmm... wierd. kind of confusing actually... makes it sound like Teraluna is pretty cool. i might wanna go there sometime. maybe bring sonic and race him. :) just gotta learn chaos control. another reason to track down shadow!!! so... how do you know this entity?
congrats!!!
Holy shit! That was an amazing read. Maybe she is more than just a DC. If that conversation you posted was true, it sounds as if she is too intelligent to be just a DC. From what I've heard from other people and from what I've experienced, DCs usually don't make sense and you normally can't remember conversations in such detail. I think the things she said were very interesting, this sounds like something we can't even understand. She has access to your memories! If this is something more than just a DC, than I would be little creeped out.
I remember her from childhood dreams. She was a recurring character back then, in a fantasy world I used to visit a lot in my dreams.Quote:

I've read this quite a few times now, that DC's usually don't make sense.Quote:

I feel like they can't solve complex problems though, so yes, they certainly don't react as intelligently as she did.
I can relate to nearly everything she said. She has this uncanny ability of making me understand something incredibly complex with only a few well chosen words.
I'm a bit confused by the whole remembering childhood dreams within another dream, but I think that the memories are real.
I know that she used to be in my childhood dreams (or at least, a DC called Yuya), because I remember drawing some of my dreams with her in them as a child.
As for being creeped out by her having access to my memories and reading my thoughts... I see why you would feel like that, but I don't feel that way at all.
I fully trust her, I don't make any attempts to hide my thoughts. I probably could if I wanted to.
Whoa, I just read through this thread and your dreams, I think it's awesome. I have a reacurring dream character but I haven't been lucid with him yet (or at least, the lucids were unclear and generally poor). I've wondered the same thing but I guess I'll just need to wait and find out :)
Good luck, and please keep us posted, we're all wanting to find out more! :D
This is wonderful! Very exciting experience. And I'm sure that it's not just a dream. I hope I will experience something like that sometime)
I'll give you the computer analogy is a bit weak, but at least neither white mountain nor myself were directly insulting anyone with our posts...
You said "logic has no place in this forum" and that was a statement ...
I never said experience has nothing to do with what someone knows, i was saying it is not the lone determining factor. I could spend every day for the next year of my life drawing pictures and at the end of that year be no better than someone who does not practice at all, however if one person were to practice they will become better than if they had not. Either way, experience in dreaming or aptitude at dreaming has very little relation to the ability of figuring out how the dream works. A good analogy would be someone playing soccer might be able to kick a ball to any spot in the net consistently, but that doesn't mean they understand the physics behind a swinging leg, an elastic collision between the ball and the foot, resistances like friction and how gravity is affecting the ball etc...
There ... nothing impolite or offensive there, or even condescending... it's just a discussion and you don't need to "WOW ITS AMAZING I HAVE TO EXPLAIN THIS", essentially calling us stupid ... but we're all being civil here of course

hmm... this... whatever-the-heck-you-wanna-call-it sounds like it could be a manifestation of your sub-c. I don't know if i've said that before, but that would explain alot. Like its ability to access your memories, and its apparent ability to control your dreams. but then again, i'm no expert. i'm just a kid that's done alot of research on this site. Why don't you try a little combat session? assuming you have the proper powers, and if this entity really can have that kind of effect, then it sounds like that would be fun. Keep us posted! :)
Great Idea.... Lets beat the shit out of this amazing dream character who you care so much about and are trying to learn more about/understand.... lets knock her down and beat the shit out of her.. yea that will show her! lolQuote:
