Inception kick to enter lucidity not exit it.
I have been able to lucid dream since i was really small, before i even knew what lucid dreams were. It all started when i use to have this recurring dream and when i would realise this then i would become lucid. I have not found it that hard to do at all , the dream world is so different from this world its almost obvious to tell.
Anyway .. I got a bit older and started to astro travel ( well what i though was astro travelling anyway ) It was a really good time in my life, learning how to fly ( it feels really weird to write that ) But things started to get really heavy. Like really heavy , i am not sure i can explain it but a few times i had met this demons in my dreams , and they would attack me and suffocate me. It was really odd. It got to the point where every time i would induce lucidity by projecting my body outside itself i would meet this demons ( not like biblical demons , just entities that look like demons ) . I would wake up in that paralyzed state where you think that you will never be able to move your body again and there is that extreme fear/paranoia . It got all a bit to much for me to handle actually , its really emotional because there is nothing tangible to explain the fear. If you talk about stuff like this to anyone they just think you are straight up crazy, so i havnt . This is actually the first time i have mentioned this to anybody.
So I stopped lucid dreaming . I found that if I smoked weed then i would not dream at all. Weed actually puts me into a very close to dream state so it was a good equalizer. It did not do much for my social life though and i use to spend more time then i should of smoking that shit. So i stopped that after a few years and the lucid dreaming never came back. I have had very extreme dreams that sometimes feel like they go on for days ,very intense but not lucid .. Until the other night.
I was listening to this lucid dreaming audio off of youtube. Quite soothing actually to just fall asleep too . After about 1 and a half hours into the audio there is this very clear and sharp sound that repeats at about 2 minute intervals. Its not loud its just sharp and distinct. So I went to sleep with this on and then woke up later to go take a piss. Maybe at around 4 ( I have a seriously weak bladder , there is not a night I go without taking a piss , and i say this because it is always after, even when i was younger, that the lucidity kicks in at around that time, or even just very vivid dreams )and BAM! There I am hovering over my body just like when i was younger. At first I was scared a bit but then i thought stuff this , im going ( might be because my life has been pretty dull lately and i havnt been in a relationship for ages )
So there i am hovering over our town ( please understand i dont believe this is astra travelling , i really believe that it is a mental dream state projection of what i believe my town to look like from above, although i do believe people do astra travel, i am just not one of them, the whole state feels like a dream and not real life ) and i get this weird feeling that someone is at my front door , so i go down to the front of the house and hide behind a bush, to keep out of the way and there are those two same demons. They were dressed in normal cloths, and looked like normal people but i could feel them, i dont know, i just knew it was them. They had not seen me but they were just there lurking outside my house. Then one turns to look straight at me, and i look at him and there is this very awkward moment and then BAM! I wake up breathing heavy and all round freaking out.
I am going to get back into this though. I have been suppressing it for too long now and i think i want to explore this a lot more. That kick into the dream works very quickly for me. So when i go back to sleep i play that tune and I feel like i get kicked straight into lucidity.
Maybe it will work for someone else if trying to get going with lucidity.
I dont know what the two characters are in my dream but if i dont see them , geez like .. what a pleasure , total control , its like nothing i am have experienced anywhere else. Total peace. I kinda fell like a god in a way. I recently quit my job though so my normal life is going to shit but .. hey .. what can you do.
