First Long Lucid Dream

**Barry** · 04-22-2012 10:01 AM

My first lucid dream which was pretty long, my others were a few seconds long.

I went downstairs for breakfast and I suddenly realised I was dreaming, I did a finger to palm reality check which didn't work, then I tried a nose plug which did work. I wiped my hands together to attain lucidity which worked. My family were all eating there breakfast, I opened my front door and demanded to fly and I did, I had to say fly every time I wanted to gain height. I started flying over the road outside my house, everything was so detailed and the feeling of the wind hitting me was amazing. I kept flying far away. I landed next to a few dc's and remembered to ask them what they represent, the first one said your failure at maths or something like that. I asked a few more but I can't remember what they said. I walked away from the group of people and a girl ran up to me asking me what I represent. I followed these people to a restaurant. We sat down at a table, I remember persuading them they were dreaming, they didn't say anything. I went out of the restaurant and started flying, I flew back to my house. I got inside and remember asking myself when I'm going to wake up. I went back outside my house and started trying to fly again, but it wasn't so easy this time. Eventually I managed to start flying again. I stopped in mid air and banged on a window, my parents were in the room. I started shouting to them saying you are dreaming, i was in mid air while my mum looked at me, she said nothing but kind of grinned. I decided to go and kill a Dc, I got to the house across the street, the dc's started fighting each other. Meanwhile I started thinking that there would be a sword or knife in my pocket, hoping one of them would appear but it didn't work, my neighbours started stabbing each other, I could feel my lucidity going but I didn't mind, I woke up straight away after that.

It's twice the finger to palm reality check hasn't worked for me, I have no idea why. The last time when it failed it fooled me and stopped me from being lucid, this time I tried it my hand remained solid and didn't work, only this time I new I was dreaming even before I did a reality check.

Nice story, sounded great. How long did it feel like? 5 minutes?

Felt more like 30 minutes, I kept wiping my hands together like every 5 minutes, which is why I think it was so long.

I was flying for quite a while before I decided to land and talk to DC's.

thats exactly what i have trouble with! keeping lucidity..... i guess i only do the hand rubbing thing once at the start of the dream, i should probably do it more and try to remind myself, this is a dream, i can do anything i desire.

I read somewhere on here that's what someone else did, and it seemed to work for me also.

That’s really funny, but anyways it was an interesting and nice story.
