My first Lucid Dream

[CloudTopDreamer]

Hello everyone. I've always wanted to lucid dream. About a year or two ago I picked up the book "Exploring the world of lucid dreaming". I read about a quarter of it and eventually became too busy to read it. Until about a week ago I came across this website and was determined to have my first lucid dream. I purchased a bottle of Huperzine A pills to increase my dream recall. For about five days straight I remembered at least one dream per night sometimes more. So this morning I had my first lucid dream and thought I would share it with you guys. Dream: Non – Lucid: I was with my friend Anthony. We were having a conversation about zombies and what not. We were standing over a large structure, which seemed to be a replica of an extremely nice mansion that also seemed to have the benefit of being a great place to hide out during a zombie apocalypse. I was standing there explaining to him the advantages of the mansion along with the piece of highway that ran from the outer limits into its upper story levels and back around to the exit and how important of a role it would play in the case of an emergency. We were then on the outer grounds of this mansion in the field that lay before it. Surrounded by the massive structure that was something so desirable. It was placed in an almost rural area. Nothing but lush green trees and grass covered the outer parameter. The mansion itself was a beige color with reddish or tocca color roof tiles. Anthony and I approached the house. The first section of the exterior that we reached was a long winding driveway that snaked left and right up to what seemed to be a second floor entrance. The drive way was enclosed with a fancy black rot iron fence that was cemented into the concrete curb at certain sections. We walked to the top and then used gravity to slide back down. Anthony was sliding in front of me and I noticed his foot was still wrapped up from his previous foot surgery. So I managed to move my body in a way that allowed me to slide faster. Once I caught up to him I had just enough time to grab his shoulders and slow him down a little until he hit the wall with his leg. My efforts seemed to help out, although his foot did still hurt after knocking into the wall. We spoke about the event for about 20 seconds until we noticed a man walking by that seemed to own the place. It was an awkward feeling as he passed by. Feeling as if we were trespassers on this mans property I said, “How’s it going?” The man didn’t seem to have a problem with us being there, but also didn’t seem too excited about it. He returned with an “Alright, How are you?” and continued to walk up the driveway. Anthony and me made our way back down the driveway and proceeded to make it off the property when we found ourselves in a pool area. It was a large pool but nothing to fancy. The ground surrounding the pool was in the same reddish tocca colored tiles that lay on the mansions roof. There were stainless steel shelving on wheels that held white towels to dry off with and the weather out side had been the same low light overcast weather it had been since we got to the mansion grounds. We met a girl here in an odd manner. It was as if we knew here. Anthony in particular. It seemed as if Anthony didn’t have an interest in talking to her and would have rather left. I hugged the girl and made a small joke to break the ice of the seemingly awkward situation and tried to talk Anthony into wanting to stay. It was at that point another girl had showed up. She was more of a blonde haired Taylor Swift looking girl with her long wavy hair and squinty eyes. The two girls began to converse with one another and me and Anthony stepped aside so I could make him feel more comfortable there. I could somehow hear what the girls were talking about, but cannot recall what they were saying. I that looked into the distance where I believed the mansion to be and noticed that it was no longer there. It was now what looked to be a mansion straight out of Luigi’s mansion. It was made out of a cartoonish very dark brown looking wood and had very dark purple roof tiles but still looked so real in the present. It was in a vivid HD and the wood grains were noticeable in all its details. A “boo” ghost had come out of the front above the front door and disappeared leaving a black hole with a swirling white gas around it. The ghostly mansion was now sitting alone on its grounds. Surrounded by air on all sides by a large gap between the grounds we stood on and it. Anthony and me started to run towards the mansion. I can here the girls begin to complain that we always run off like this without saying goodbye. Somehow without my noticing Anthony had made it over the gap and inside. I found myself running towards the gap and in “true Mario fashion” A wooden bridge extended from the land the mansion stood upon out in my direction. Before it could reach all the way across I leaped forward over the remaining gap and landed on the bridge. I made my way to the door and into the mansion. I found myself in a small dark foyer area. The same dark brown wood was basically all that was around me. It was what made up the floor and all the walls. From the moment I walked through the front door I noticed how noisy it was inside this house. It sounded as if large gears were rotating from every direction, vibrating through the walls. The small room seemed to have two closed doors, one in front of me and one on the right. I had the strong urge to find Anthony and make sure he was OK. With a little hesitance I opened the right door. The door leads me into a small kitchen. I seen a dinner table and look to my left by the sink. I cartoonish man and woman have there back to me and quickly turn around to reveal there only skeletons in clothing with piercing red eyes. I run to make my way up the stairs to what feels like another dark foyer area. For some reason I notice that this is not real. I tell myself “This is a Dream”. Lucid: My surroundings begin to get more vivid. I gain a little more clarity and a since of my body. I become somewhat excited about becoming lucid. I begin to explore the mansion a little more while still trying to find Anthony. I find a room that obviously belongs to a girl. The detail in the room surprises me. I can see notes with script writing on the walls. I can see the words but do not bother to read them. I see one larger note with a sketch of some large breasts on it with more writing around it. I then realize that I no longer need to find Anthony. Since I’m finally in a lucid dream I want to have a sexual encounter. I face the open door to the room I’m in and tell myself that a beautiful woman will walk through it. About two seconds pass and ---- My eyes open. I’m awake. -- End Dream So, yea I'm not really sure why I noticed I was dreaming. I did fall asleep with the #2 audio aid file found on this website, perhaps that had something to do with it. If anyone has any input on this dream, whether its about it's underlying meanings or how to increase my control over it I'd love to hear it. I plan on getting some apple juice and peppermint tea to drink before bed tonight. I'm also gonna read up more about dream control because i'm very interested in being able to control my surroundings. Thanks for reading! I'll post more info on how the apple juice works soon.
