Thread: I just had the craziest dream!!! - My first lucid

Half my life is dejavu, i think i must subconciously remember every dream i have because i always feel like i've done things before, even to the extent where i know what's going to happen a couple of seconds in the future. I dunno, I've tripped shrooms a couple of times too, they were pretty amazing except one trip i was having a bad trip for almost an hour, but then i just willed myself into believing i was a ferret (i love ferrets) and everything was fine. hah, i guess whatever makes you feel better
I don't think you can truly have dejavu which tells you the future (can't think of the right word for it) because it's too easy to just make that event happen yourself. There have been instances for me where i've had vague dejavu like for instance in class, where i know what the teacher is going to say in the not too distant future (once my teacher was telling our class about his surfing trip in hawaii and as he was talking i asked him "hold on, did you catch 3 good waves but then wipe out your fourth one and cut your lower leg on the reef?" and he was like "what the... yes.." and everyone was pretty mindfucked but i've never truly "seen" the future so to speak to such an extent as you're talking about.

Yeah I know what you mean too like I could easily go talk to my friend about it, and make it happen. but it's just the way i felt it i cant explain it. i was tired when i first got on here i may just be overthinking my first lucid dream.

Congrats on the first Lucid, in my opinion my first one was my best. Probably because it was a new experience.
But get better at it and they will be more 'crazy'.

So do you like shrooms? what have they done to your body?

what do you mean by "changed your outlook on life" like for the better?

Well, I thought of the crazyyyyest stuff ever. First I was with some friends.
We went into my friends van to smoke a bowl of Colorado Chronic (not real weed) And it had kinda started hitting me at the mall which we took them at.
started like just tripping out, I just didn't like understand. I Felt like I just didn't understand reality like I just couldn't comprehend it almost.
I actually started wondering if my friend were even real, or if I was crazy and had like invented them from projections of my mind.
I realized I can only prove I exist, I only feel my consciousness, I can know anyone intimately but I can never feel they're consciousness so to say.
everything in the world could be a projection of my mind. I could be the only consciousness in the universe. Then I realized that's very true, but I trusted that my friends were real.
Then my dog came outside and I realized he had a face.
I know that sounds like a no brainer- but he had a face an expression it almost startled me like its really hard to explain.
So then I went to the park with my friend and we sat there laughing and just like beginning to really trip now.
Then she had to go, so I just sat on a grassy hill and watched the grass move up and down and turn into a kaleidoscope.
I saw visual patterning and a slight visual kaleidoscope on the edges of my vision.
I kept having the honest urge to just laugh.
Then I moved to a different spot and sat there for like 4 hours. I realized that shrooms literally makes you trip. like imagine walking and stumbling and
being knocked out of your daydream, like a reality check. It makes you trip out, but that makes you wonder well if this is the reality im percieving
what makes the reality I had before real. For all we know, When we die, we wake up in a more real reality. this reality is projected inward to us. Our brain creates this reality. and it can be changed by hallucinogens. So like for all I know when I walk inside and talk to my parents for all I know there isnt anything more weird about that then if I did on shrooms.
I realized that religion on its most basic psyche level, creates the illusion that we are not of this world. That we are not a part of it, we are disconnected from
it. I realized that we are all basically one giant organism. I am typing to all of you from an unknown place to you, and we are most likely deperated by long distances of air,
and space. but in reality we are connected, the air is touching you and its touching me, there is no space on earth. We are all a part of one another in a certain sense.
I also realized that animals have consciousness. they may not have a Neocortex or a pineal gland,
But they are able to comprehend. I realized the sudden expression I saw on my dog, was not me tripping out, but me realizing that it was real
I just lived a mechanical lifestyle which made me live as if he didn't even exist but to pet and give treats to.
I realized that pets are friends. They simply share common interests, such as water, food, shelter and friendship.
And that life is a journey in a figurative way, when you meet a person they walk on that journey with you they may stray off
or stay with you long periods of time, but gaining and losing friendships and relationships, whether romantic or friendly were just a natural thing.
I also realized that life is simply about thinking, and finding people to share the buttery goodness that is life.
Relationships aren't about two incomplete people completing each other, its about two
completely whole souls, sharing good things in life.
I realized money and our current way of life is literally insane!
Not even metaphorically literalllyyyyyy. And i also realized that almost everyone lives life in a sort of OCd way.
I saw that I too woke up, did this, did that, ate food, did this, made habits of an entire way of acting and living.
I realized that people are putting on an act whether they realize it or not.
I felt like I had woken up from a dream, that had been going on my whole life.
until now.
I realized that the entire universe is like yin and yang.
You have light and darkness, good and evil, black and white, life and death. Neither can exist without the other
and for instance, death is just the flip side of life,
death can't be possible without life, and in a sense it shows death is never the end.
Also I realized government is simply something that eventually our consciousnesses will evolve passed.
Governments will get super bad and abusive etc, it will be just like 1984
but someday through that our consciousnesses will learn to rule themselves. I realized that person autonomy is amazing.
Dancing isn't something you can learn. It is something you must do for yourself, I was in a nature-y area
and all I could hear above my own breathing was the sound of life. of nature.
the wind russling through the trees,
the wind was hitting the trees in a sense both the wind and the tree were making the noise through a conjoined effort. The leaves turning into fall shades looked amazingly beautiful.
I felt the flow of Nature, and the entire universe and I danced to it, I can't explain it, but Dancing is flowing with nature. you cant learn someone else dance for it to be real.
I thought about alot more stuff like how Jesus obviously did shrooms (the people acting thing) I've done other drugs such as Weed, rolling and 2cE but honestly I ha the biggest spiritual awakening on shrooms. I felt like myself I felt literal person autonomy. I went home,
and this is where it got a little more crazy. I realized that my parents were putting on an act. Like not being themselves
It's completely subconscious, but it's true. I was like reanalyzing reality form a fresh point.
the shrooms made me hallucinate which in turn caused my brain to reanalyze what reality is.
Now i was sort of a new person. And I completely realized my parents were what
I sort of now call conformed. Socially conditioned sort of. It's really hard to put into words but I guarantee if you have an experience like I did you will have a completely new outlook on the world.
and reality.
So I now feel soo different, I always thought Iwas an outside of the box thinker, then I tried rolling, and weed, then I really thought like an out of the box thinker.
Then I did shrooms and I feel sooooo mucchh even more outside of the box thinker,
I used to sort of have a social anxiety sort of, but now I realize how everyone is the same how everyone can connect, and that I was my own person living my own life in my own reality, I have nothing to be ashamed of or afraid of just by being me, and it feels good.
I feeel so more outgoing, and expressive, creative and I subconsciously use a much bigger vocabulary. ( Not when typing this rofl)
But most of all. I feel aware.
Like when you get used to something and it becomes a habit you
notice it less or it loses its genuineness. it gets old.
i feel like we all do that to what reality really is, So I also think it obviously travelled into my dreams,
I am just more aware of everything again, so now that i dream it isn't like oh yeah ive been dreaming for 18
years I'm used to it
i barely remember my dreams.
now its like-- damn! I had 5 dreams last night and I remember like most of the details from all of them.
I believe the reason I had a Lucid Dream, is because, I noticed that my dream had an illogicality in it, which triggered me to stop and think about it which instantly threw me into lucidity.
Even Lucid dreaming taught me alot about myself.
I realized that I have patterns when I dream.
If I am getting texts and i dose off between each text, then reawaken to text back I generally will have a falling dream, or potential for a lucid dream.
I realized that I definitely was lucid dreaming because, I was in an area of daytime and I knew that it was night where i was.
and i consciously thought about that strange fact.
Also I woke up upon my decision to wake up.
I hope this sort of answers your question lol.

Overall I am now aware. I am lucid. I realize Lucidity isn't something you strive for within a dream. It's something you strive for in all aspects of life. just like having a RC will carry over into a dream. Knowing what reality really is in the first place does too. the more aware you are awake the more aware you are sleeping. your consciousness never changes only your physical states. So it's up to you to stay lucid throughout all fluctuation within your physical and mental states.

Congrats and welcome!

Interesting experiences and ideas, we enjoy your perspective.
