Thread: Surprises in Lucid dreams

In one of my lucid dream; I was on a road, infront of me, a big red bus coming from nowhere skidded toward me at a high speed, I took off like a rocket before it hits me.
I was not expecting that.

Wanted to reply here yesterday but forgot... During this night, at the second lucid, I was practicing a weird acrobatic position with a DC. Suddenly some kind of shadow creature appeared out of nowhere! I was so surprised I just hit him with the DC whose weight I was supporting, and tossed him on the creature. The creature "died" and faded away. I was surprised by my quick reflexes / the appearance of that creature, and everyone in the room was also as surprised. I faked a smile and a victory pose (to impressed a girl there) and proclaimed "Yeah! This always works!" (like this is something that happens on a regular basis... )

In another recent lucid, I jumped off a highway onto the pavement below it (the height difference was very big, but I knew I'll make it since I was lucid). Landed in superman style and noticed the pavement cracked, but didn't notice how close to the road I landed. A bus zoomed just inches from my face, and scared the living **** out of me [but didn't wake up]... In a previous dream that night, a main antagonist DC got severely injured and disfigured in a similar manner (falling under a bus), so I thought how ironic it could have been...

What the hell is going on with these buses. Once during an OBE I had a bus coming at me at high speed... he just went through me tho but it was very scary

Ok, I think we can issue a warning about lucid buses. They are after us!! Haha. No really, I wonder where are these "unexpected" things in our dreams coming from?

Maybe from things we subconsciously perceive as a possible threat? I think buses fit that category - when you walk close to a road, cars don't distract to much, but once a bus (or another tall vehicle) passes by it's quite overwhelming with the louder sound, stronger gas smell, and that gust of air that sucks you in. I mean, it might be just me but when I was like 6 or 8 years old I got jump scared a few times by passing by buses... That's probably at least somewhat universal which is why people from different countries, age groups, etc, dream about that same thing.

one night in a lucid someone called on a phone i take it and prank him alot (like you want to talk to the chef? he is on vacation, you had an appointment? hm who cares, he just dont want to talk to you and stuff... nothing soo bad^^) and was mean. i examined the rooms i was in and wanted to leave thru a door. before the door could close completely suddenly some DC´s appeared and was mean and frightening to me. they didnt beat me up but where threatening and unpleasant... i thought to myself why that? there was no intention expectation or whatever from my conscious side. it was completely unexpected so my "greater inner self" must have decided that this is the game we play now? i tried to escape, to run away but they follow me after some time i turned around and screamed that they should go away and they did but seconds later two girls from the other side came and hold me tide and the unpleasent part started again... i eventually could teleport into a FA that i noticed and then the theme changed.

did you read the book gataway to the inner self by robert wagoner? he writes a similar scene where he just flyin around and pushing of hats from heads of people in a mall. after the 5th attempt a "random DC" put up his arm and hold him thight so he cant fly away and make him stop this way. he get away but he says it was unpleasant and not intendet or expected
do you think (and i know this question might be funny) that if you are mean in you lucid for some time that your lets call it subcon. revenge in some way or brings you back on the grond showing you that you are not god but just an ass?
