Yay! I'm back from vacation and I had a huge epic LD this morning! I had been a good girl while I was away, and worked diligently on improving my dream recall by learning to lie still when I awake (was difficult to master, but it really works!) and I really went for it this morning when I was back in my own bed, but I had never expected this. A long dream in multiple settings and with great control! I managed to:

  • consciously let (part of) a dream play out without asserting control over what happened - something I had been planning to do for a while
  • deal with fear by remaining conscious of my lucid power
  • escape from a short bout of non-lucidity in the middle of the dream
  • stabilize a dream in a new way
  • complete a TOTM
  • build and destroy something through mind control
  • reunite with an original DC I was particularly fond of (not summoned consciously but still a win)
  • remind myself of an earlier part of the dream without losing lucidity
  • have sex without waking up

I am so excited about this. I was hoping to have an LD longer than 5 minutes, but this was above and beyond expectations! I can't wait to have another dream like this, now that I know what is possible.

Dream part 1 and part 2.
