I just responded to a post about how once in a lucid dream I shot "white energy balls" at something evil.

I had just become lucid and was walking toward the front door when I saw but more importantly "felt" something evil coming towards me. I tried to make out what it was but it was too dark and seemed more shadow than solid. I felt no fear but stated simply "I am protected by pure white light", raised my arms and shot white energy balls from my fists into it. Whatever it was disappeared and I went on with the rest of my dream.

I also stated that the reason I was able to fire on the "shadow" was that not only did I believe that I could shoot energy balls but that I "expected" that the energy balls would come and they did.

Relating this experience made me wonder if anyone else has ever encounted anything evil or had a bad/unsettling experience in a lucid dream and, if so, how did you react to it?

P.S.. please don't let this topic scare you away from LDing because ultimately you can change the outcome of a LD if you truely believe you can..
