Was this a wild

**Riot Maker** · 01-04-2008 07:09 PM

I woke up today around 5:30 to a loud nouse that shook my house. I said hey that is splendid why not try a wild. I made sure it wasn't a flase awkening or anything first. I just laid in my bed, no sensation came or anything. Then another loud noise shook my house again but i was sure it wasn't dream related because i could hear my dad taking a shower also. Then i decided to go to sleep normally because the loud noises woke m up to much. then all off the sudden i felt my hands go straight through my matrees, only my hands though and nothing else. I was lucid, but how? I made sure it wasn't a fals awakenign i did like 50 reality checks.

If you went directly from waking to dreaming, then yes it was a WILD. I'm not sure why you WILDed - it sounds like you weren't trying to. Maybe you're a natural WILDer...

I think it was only the hallucinations you have when WILDing. I myself easily lose track of my body when WILDing, and when I come back to it, it's like I could phase through my bed at any instant.

For what I understand, it wasn't a succesful WILD, but definitely a step into the right direction heh

I once heard a theory that, when you stop pursuing things, they happen. Take dry spells, for example xD

Btw, do post your progress

I heard the same theory, so i guess i will be a sort of a gunnie pig for the theory

. and I will make sure to post my progress, hopefully somthing eventful happens.

Yeah, make sure to tell us how it goes. A dream journal, maybe?

Yeah i think i might have to start one up!

Well my un-intential wild worked again, if you can belive it. I woke up today at around 7:00 to find my self pissed that i woke up so early. I said i needed more sleep and tryed to get more sleep. Then i have no clue what the time frame would be i felt the shift thing, but it wasn't the type of falling through matress's shift or go out of your bed shift this shift had no sensation at all no HI no sounds no vibrations no anything. I just simply felt a shift. So i slithered out of my body like a snake and hit the ground, i was lucid

. I ended up doing the basic task of the month.

I know how it feels when you dont know if you are WILDing or if its DILDing.. I had a very confusing lucid experience last night too. You can read it under the titel "Was it a WILD or a dream?" But hey, we got Lucid.. Thats the important thing. I`ll try the same thing tonight again:-)..

If you were sure you weren't dreaming then it wasn't a WILD. Just hallucinations as Kromoh said. Good luck next time though!

Im not to entirely sure what you guys are saying. I'll try to make my self clear right now. I woke up a 7, decided i need more sleep and went back to bed with out any intention of wilding. I became consious when i felt the shift and then slithered out of my body into a dream scence. So i think you guys are trying to say that since i was unconsious it was not a wild. if it wasn't a wild what would it be considered as?

**Bonsay** · 01-05-2008 06:37 PM

If you knew it was a dream then you were lucid.
WILD does mean wake induced. I guess if you fell unconscious somewhere in between and then became lucid, it was a DILD (and a WBTB maby?). I thought you said you weren't in a dream, since you were sure it wasn't a false awakening.

**Riot Maker** · 01-05-2008 06:42 PM

right, so after awoke and made sure it wasn't a false awakening i went back to bed and fell unconsious. Then it's like i was suddenly consious for the shift that you feel if you were going into a dream but the dream has not started yet. It's almost like i was unconsious for the whole process of a wild but was consious for the shift into a dream.

**Bonsay** · 01-05-2008 06:45 PM

Yes, I think that's what I meant. You felt the hypnagogic sensations. If you waited you could have fallen into a LD. I guess it could have been a WILD (sort of)

. Just like you described.
