I will be using my AERA scent machine as well as my S+ Sleep System

I will start with Vanilla (list of Ingredients here, click other links to see others I'll try to use)
https://support.aeraforhome.com/hc/e...la-Ingredients

tho I think I'll stick to Vanilla on the weekends

maybe then try Mon-Tue some other
then Wed-Thurs some other

The idea is that while I sleep I will release the fragrances and see how it affects my dreams
I swear when I used 'White Tea' I dreamed I was trapped in a shopping mall

So far I have only been certain I smelled the fragarances twice in dreams, but haevn't become lucid at the time
did become lucid just after being aware of the smell in one dream, but havn't been lucid since.

My avaliable scents 'Cherry Blossom' 'Lavender' 'White Tea' 'Vanilia' 'Sandalwood' 'Indigo' 'Vibrance' and 'Odyssey'
soon to arive (if FedEx can find the steering wheel) 'Gingerlily' and 'Moondance'

The eventual goal is to have the S+ scan while sleeping then when it detects REM only then activate the AERA at a high setting
but for now I will set it for about constant '2' before midnite then '3' or '4' after midnite

at setting '2' it sleeps for 2 min then runs for 6 seconds or so
at setting '3' it sleeps for 2 min then runs for 10 seconds
at setting '4' it sleeps for 2 min then runs for 20 seconds
(if I sense any good effect maybe I'll set it to run at setting '5' near morning)
setting '5' would be sleeps for 2 min then runs for 30 seconds

My current Dream total is 199 since join, but after my 200th I'll reset to 211 total after the next one


I see this contest has non-lucid dreamer points, hope I don't score to many inadvertant points, I wake up 3 - 8+ times per night and usually remember dreams
points for consecutive dream nights, I would have to stay awake all night to miss out on those he he


New rules: seems I must unlearn what I have learned
since no points for Alteration (Changing of DC object) etc
at least I won't be torn between Telekenesis and Phasing like in the last contest

A question for all of you. I think the team's are out of balance again. Should I restructure it to 2 beginners & 1 intermediate and 2 intermediates? Or should I leave the team's as they currently are? Your feedback is appreciated.

Dreamware ready

Hope the S+ works haevn't used it since last contest

Above S+ one of Sony srs XB10 (stereo pair on other side of bed)
to left B-6, below center 5-HTP, below right Melatonin

AERA loaded with Vanilla
Above Spearmint, Wintergreen & Pepermint

Amazon 10 showing Aera Control
Amazon 8 showing Philips Hue Light Controls (mostly set to night mode)
{Night Mode means one or two lights/room set to 10% Dark Red to maintain sleepiness at night}
[Birds in Twilight mode] 63 lights total (54 color 5 ambient 4 white)
Amazon 7 showing Sony recorder for Audio Dream Jorunal

center of Amazons Cherry Blossom scent capsule
right side 3 more capsules Indego, Odyssey and Vibrance (in boxes)
bottom rigth corner Google Home Mini


Someday I'll get everything hooked into the S+ detector somehow
so when I enter REM it will be Lights/Sound/Smell and hopefully vibrating wrist or ankle bands


@KarlaB18 I'm not sure what Breath element is?
I'll assume like breath underwater or some such


Looks like contest begins for me in just a few seconds

@KarlaB18
To even things out as much as is currently possible, I think that both MadMonkey and CooleyMD should be in the same team. From what I could tell (and know), the two are getting back to the groove of things.

@CooleyMD
Nah, it's more of a breath weapon. ie breathing fire

I secons what FireFlyMan said. I may be a little rusty to be the only intermediate dreamer for my team. However it'd be even better to get more people involved and balance that way!

Cooleymd: What FireFlyMan said; any form of breath magic, you can breathe fire, electricity, ice, earth, wind, water, lava, poison, anything else you can think of.

And teams; the allocation has been adjusted.

Well maybe I'll just stick to breathing electrically dispensed Vanilia fumes

So far slept 2X 3.5hrs

Day01Sleeps01_02.JPG

Had trouble remembering anything from the first 3 awakenings in top image. But then remembered some and much from the last 2 (using Sony App to record my audio account)

Somehow when I woke for the last time the AERA app had been bumped and was on setting 7. I don't think it could have been on that setting for long tho becuase I ran for a total of 7 hours including the first 4 covered in the top image and only used 3% of the capsule which sounds about the right usage. (8Hrs at setting 3 should use approximately 2.75% of capsule according to my calculations, each capsule of Vanilia costs $39, more for some scents)

In the lower image I woke 5 times and made 5 recordings. Then I went to play them and couldn't hear any sound , but turns out they were being cast to the bedroom next door on one of my other five google home mini, he he I will listen to them latter to see if I think each is a full dream or fragment, but up to 8 dreams / fragments so far

All non lucid, but I may have invented something called a 'Corner Chain Saw' if inventing means that something was in our dream that doesn't seem to actually exist, I didn't do anything but look at it in the dream (no construction)
Also a new nuclear reactor, but I'm not going to try to claim that, as It was from a narative type dream talking about all its achievements and contributions, tho the dream camera was panning all over this NMR looking device.

I had a hard time remembering more than fragments last night. I did remember one frag of been a secret agent in training.

Night 1
Remember a dream fragment (0.5)
Night total: 0.5
Competition total: 0.5

And now, a bout that no one everyone was waiting for!

Jumping June Dreaming Competition 2018 - Day 1

Fragment (4) - 2 points

First LD - 10 point
DILD - 5 points
WBTB - 2 points

Flight (LD) - 4 points
Summon DC (Dream Guide) (LD) - 10 points?

Subsequent LD - 5 points

Meet a DV Enemy (MadMonkey) (LD) - 5 points
Fight a DV Enemy (LD) - 5 points

Subtotal - 48 points?
Competition Total - 48 points?

*So, uh, for the sake of this contest, does transforming an object into a DC (and, in this case, my guide) count as summoning them? Furthermore, in the second LD, I summoned the DV enemy in view. I'm not too clear on whether this should get me points for both finding an enemy and for summoning a DC, or just for one of either category.

Well my S+ was fighting so hard not to sync with my tablet, I had to unpair it and pair it back to the phone
I think when I do that it doesn't upload to the cloud, but oh well I only posted screen shots from the tablet too

Day01Sleep03.JPG

I just checked and my nap never made it to the cloud. Might have been nice to see the temperature data for the nap apparently it was near to 80 degrees at night in the room, I never cool the place soon it will be too hot for many good dreams.

I managed to nap a bit and record two more dreams

I'll have to try to write them up from audio and see what they are worth, I still don't know If I should claim the 'corner chain saw as an invention', certainly I don't think they exist in the real world, it was like a saw that's chain came off of a cylinder that was cut obliquely, such that It would be perfect for corner cutting things, so my brain invented it but not my conciousness. In the same scene I was trying to give away something to a DC tho other DC seemed to be there to buy things, but I don't think I can claim and buy / sell (non-lucid).

hopefully I won't fall too far behind on writing up things from audio
in any case 10 fragments/dreams so far.

NLD fragment = .5 points

Tried to transfer the bluetooth connection of S+ back to tablet, finally gave up and reconnected to the phone

This time the device detected many awakenings early but I don't recall them

Then oddly It says I was in the middle of a dream from just before 2:00 until well past 2:30, ironically I woke and recorded a dream at like 2:07

Day02Sleep01.JPG

right after recording it I must have fallen back into a dream, awakening only after the next cycle, the cycle after that I remembered an extra dream which must have been what I fell into. However since I only declare one dream per awakening I'll just log it as all one dream. So that should be four dreams 12:30ish, 2ish, rest of 2after-ish/3:30ish, and 5:10ish

sure seemed like a lot more when I was in bed hopefully I didn't actualy record on the other awakenings and delete them or something

I make up summarys, or descriptions of anything that might be worth extra points (not many) sometime next few days
but so far total fragments/dreams 14ish

oh yea and FedEx finally found the steering wheel so now 'Gingerlily' and 'Moondance' are avaliable for me to test out scent vs dream

Nothing today...

BTW, I prolly won't be able to post as frequently as usual. Maybe only the weekends, but we'll see.

I declare Monday Moondance Madness

MondayMondanceMadness.JPG

Left Mondance Loaded, Right Moondance under app control

My app and AERA have been going off schedule and behaving psychotically so I deleted all the schedules, and I will operate it manually, turning it on setting 2 when I go to sleep
then If necessary adjusting it to 1 or 3 upon awakening.

In my experience all the scents (most only checked for scent briefly) so far were strong on setting 2, except Vanilla it needs a 4 to be truly strong. But it is my favorite so far with Cherry Blossom second so far.
I just took a wiff of Moondance and it does smell pretty strong no Idea if it will influcance dreams or if so in what way

Next Up i'll try Ginger Lily on like Tue Night/Wed Morn and Wed Night/Thurs Morn
Maybe go for Cherry Blossom Friday, before switching back to Vanilla

supposedly Moondance is described as sweet but not too sweet

Spoiler for Ingredients:

Isopropyl Myristate:Helps dissolve other ingredients

Anise Alcohol:Scent: Floral, lilac, hyacinth
Bergamol:Scent: Sweet green citrus, bergamot
Boisenone:Scent: Woody, amber
Coumarin:Scent: Sweet hay
Eugenol:Scent: Essence of cloves
Geranyl Acetate:Scent: Floral, rose, lavender
Limonene:Natural citrus oil
Linalool:Scent: Citrus

I do like the idea of Anise and Limonene but I fear the capsules containing Coumarin, it isn't likely too good for my birds

guess I'll just update this post with the result: I don't think Moondance can be to blame, I'll blame Monday and all the caffine I decided to drink in the after noon
(I could definitely smell the woodiness of the Moondance in the scent, didn't notice it in dreams tho, and didn't dream of woods or cabins)

Day03Sleep01.JPG

as you can see took a while to get to sleep, and then I didn't seem to wake after all dreams
the dreams were not vivid or memorable, the first was mostly about passwords (sort of password mining) and the last was about being at a house with family and thinking about codes.

(total dreams/fragments about 16 so far (remembered ones anyway))

I wonder what all those other brief dreams were about, tired and tried for recall but didn't come up with anything else

Oh well Mondays are always the worst

Guess I still got time after all.

Recall a non-lucid fragment (0.5)
Night Total: (0.5)
Competition Total:18

Sure everyone is familiar with ASL (american sign language)
but what about MAGA-SL (Make America Great Again)

I will definetly get 10 Points for Old goal Grab 3+ DC Trump Style
aside from this I didn't do much to I did try to to another Old goal
(I don't know the per dream and per night rules for such things)
(in any case I only managed to run my finger thru 1 DC's hair)

@KarlaB what are some of the rules for these points and per dream / per night rules)
I suppose I get 10 points for the LD
and 2 points for it being WBTB
but what is the deal with +5 for induced via DILD (or +5 for induced via WILD)

in many acronyms the "I" does stand for induced, but not in DILD or WILD
this is because there are only two ways to enter the Lucid State (see my somewhat crappy attached diagram, couldn't find a decent online chart even tho there are many)

The bottom two lable are probably bad since really both are sort of sleep states but dreams only occur in the one I labled sleep state (accept for luic dreams)

the "I"s stand for Initiated

Wake Initiated Lucid Dream is when you follow the horizontal Yellow Arrow
Dream Initiated Lucid Dream is when you follow the vertical Yellow Arrow
normally you follow on the blue arrows
although in reality all the arrows are double headed
and it is also possible to jerk awake from Sleep State to Wake State
(but not vice versa you can't have your body and mind fall asleep at the same exact moment at least not by coincidence/chance)

In other contests there were points for First DILD and First WILD of night
but all Lucids are one or the other

SleepStates.JPG

There is an election today (just a primary) And I have to go deliver a real message to the damn Democrats, but hopefully I'll write up my dreams tomorrow night
