March Top 3

MARCH

So I decided to mark my top 3 Lucids for the month on here. Please put your top 3 lucids (or just top 3 dreams if you don't have lucids yet... or a mixture is fine as well) and comment on mine! :P I will also comment on all dreams posted here, so if you want to post some fun dreams here, because people sometimes don't get any comments on DJ entries or anything.

King's Court
I DEILD back to the sky above my apartment. I look around and notice that the night sky is back to normal. I look north and see a huge portrait in the sky... Sweet, I want to go to another world anyways. I fly towards it and it takes a little while to get there. I switch to third person and see my body fly into the portrait. As I get closer it keeps changing. It has a gold outline around the portrait.

Spoiler for Portrait:

It fades out and fades back in. I am sitting in a court with a lot of dignitaries and people wearing regal clothes. The king stands forward and he is pretty big. A completely round body type.
King: I think we are all pretty happy about taking over the south field.
Everyone applauds.
Me: You bought a field?
King: No! We won it in a war!
Me: Who did you fight against?
King: We didn't fight! I brought my army down there against the field and we won!
A picture of the entire planet pops into my head. It is quite a small planet. surface area about that of Texas. The south field was pretty big, but there didn't seem to be any other kingdoms but this one on the planet.
Me: No enemies?
The king got flustered and angry.
King: We have the largest marching army the world has ever had.
I am about to say something condescending about his useless army. My wife was apparently sitting next to me and grabs me and tells me not to patronize him anymore. I sit and watch the rest of them deciding on how to take over the other southern field.

Katara time.
I keep switching back and forth from the doctor's office and a vacation with my family. Then after a while I am outside the doctor's office again. I was here in a dream! I think and i look around. Ah! That means that this is a dream. RC/stabilize and climb up a wall to look around. I should do a more grand price of dream control. I see both lakes and I pull a stream of water from one and send it at a wall. I freeze it on impact. I throw another stream in the air and freeze it into a pillar. I bring a stream to me and see a window. I freeze one end of the water whip and send it at the window. I miss and the water falls to the ground and freezes. I look over at the other lake. I have another idea. I pull out a stream and send it upward, then another and another until the lake is empty. What should I do? Maybe go somewhere that has more fun dream items to play with. A space station. I close my eyes and appear in a space station. I walk around the room, but feel if I leave it I will wake. I try to leave and wake up.

#1
Vixen
Technically 2 dreams... but it is a DEILD, and the story goes together.
I am with my wife in New York. Apparently me and Laura go there once a year so that we can watch the one "sunrise" a year (would be cool to have a dream world that each day is the same as a year). I step outside for a second. A girl was out there. I knew immediately that she was a lucid dreamer... that doesn't make much sense... I must be dreaming. I can treat her like a lucid dreamer for fun. Might be a fun bout or hopefully a fight. I ask her if she wants anything and she calls herself the vixen. She flies off. I follow her and she flies around in circles for a bit. Then she disappears. I am confused. I didn't feel her teleporting. I drop on the ground and see arrows on the ground that showed our flight paths. She was going like 10 times as fast as me and when she got to the end she finally flew at full speed. I land on the ground. I try to find my phone to do some specific thing on it (kind of personal). It isn't in my pocket. I drop to the ground and pretend like I dropped it around here. It is in a pile of leaves. I pull it up and it actually works the way I want it to (personal) though off a little like most dream things. awake.
DEILD back.
I am in the room that me and my wife were waiting for the sunrise. I create a dream character.
Me: I am going to teach you how to lucid dream!"
DC: That sounds like fun! How are we gonna do it?"
Me: Just lay down and I will guide you."
He lays down. I put my hand on his head.
I am walking down a road. I can tell The Vixen is straight ahead. I look down and notice that I got it right and was in the DCs body. She shouldn't recognize me this way.
I walk into the restaurant and quickly have a flash of the entire thing. They cook little people here and serve them. By little people, I mean people that are about 2 inches high. They melt them and use them as a juice in the meat... pretty terrible. I am now sitting down. Weird, I completely lost track of my dream body and brought me forward in time to me already sitting in the restaurant with food. I look and think about not eating... but it is just a DC that I am eating. no big deal. I look up and the waitress asks me if I need anything else. I look up, and it is the Vixen! She does notice me! She must be able to see through DC disguises. She gives me a "blow my cover and I kill you" look. I stand up and follow her into the kitchen. The kitchen is for a bar as well. I follow her into the bar and she disappears. The people in the bar are all staring at me, except one. My body standing in the corner. I run up to it and look back before transferring to it. All the DCs are extremely creepy looking, looks like live versions of the things in "Nightmare before Christmas", one of them even had a pumpkin for a head. I transfer my consciousness to my body. My other body is a lot shorter, wearing close that I would never wear.
DC: What is wrong? I thought that LDing was safe?
Me: it is safe! Sometimes DCs get angry when they figure out that they are fake and you are the dreamer.
DC: Why aren't they attacking you?
They will if they find out... gotta think of something quick... they are always listening.
Me: Because I am just the DC version of me.

Spoiler for violent:

I grab him and hold him still while the other DCs jump. He looks in my eyes. I smile and keep up the facade of crazy DC. I grab the side of his face and my finger slips into his eye socket. I pull it out with the eye. We both wake up.

I sit up and the DC next to me sits up.
DC: that was awesome!
Glad he wasn't disappointed even with the crazy and violent ending.
I walk outside and the moon is full. I walk around and look up at the sky for about 5 minutes. I fly around for a bit and just enjoy the night.


Hope you enjoy this! I will at least be able to look at these later. Give me some of your epic dreams. :D

Cool idea and cool dreams Bossman! Maybe we can get some more people to participate. I will do my top 3 for March 2014:

There is another dream I was thinking about being part of the top 3 but I am trying to keep this more clean out of respect to you Bossman. I will edit any other spots as needed. :) Luckily I am just able to cut and paste this at this point.

#3: 3/8/14 I'm outside and the lighting changes markedly from brighter to darker. I look around thinking that's strange, it's night time. I look to the sky and there is a light source behind the clouds and just as my sc tries to explain that it was due to clouds passing over the moon I realize that I am dreaming! The change in lighting was just too stark. I'm in a back yard and go into the house looking for a DC. I had planned to go back to last month's TOTM before doing another current TOTM because I loved the concept. I asked a random female DC "Who is my true love?...give me their name please?" She responded "L" (spelled out first name hidden here for privacy). I immediately thought of my very first girlfriend, she had the same name "but I haven't thought about her in years and I broke up with her and I never thought of her as that special...could it be a different 'L' " I thought during the dream. I told myself that it was time to move on. I went out through the front door wondering where I was and found I was stepping onto the street in front of my childhood home. I start heading towards the creek but that reminded me of a childhood run-in with the neighborhood bully and I walked up to his door and busted down the door with telekinesis. I walk inside, find the neighborhood bully and knock him a round a bit. Hmm...twice lately I have committed violence in an LD which is unusual for me. Having had enough of that, I thought of a goal I had planned for my first step of the 3 step tasks for the competition that combined well with one of my personal goals but it required me to be in my current waking life locale. I do a closed eye teleport and arrive in front of my current home. I immediately start to float/fly towards and over the high tree line nearby and it feels so wonderful. I momentarily consider visiting Girl Friday but decide to continue with my goal of flying to the city, above and around the city and then towards and over the coast. I start flying somewhat leisurely checking out some local landmarks before deciding I should pick up the pace and start flying very fast and arrive at the city. My vision has become a little less vivid and I fly up to the top of one of the tall buildings and look around. I probably could have spent some more time working on the vividness but I decide I may not have much time and continue with my plan to fly around the city in a big circle at super speed. I end up in the void before feeling myself returning to my bed awake. I try to re-enter the dream just in case, but it seems apparent that I am too awake after that nice LD.

#2: 3/4/14 there is a party with family there and quite a few unknown people, quite crowded in some version of M Blvd but not really, perhaps my childhood home had some elements here as well. Someone says hey that sounds like a baby, do you hear that? I look around and I also then hear the crying and look down over my left shoulder and see very small baby newborn in a carrier on the ground. I go to pick up the baby with a big smile and very happy but then I realize that this baby showed up out of the blue and that I am definitely dreaming. I think of DutchRaptor-style tests of lucidity level and think to myself, since I am dreaming I have no problem dropping this baby back to the ground (from about 2 feet up) and I did so but it felt awkward and wrong before reminding myself...hey it's just a dream, move on. I think of the basic TOTM and I walk over from the living room to the kitchen and ask a female DC what her middle name is, there is a delay and I say nicely, I just need a name, your middle name. She says what sounds like "Frando." Then I am feeling a bit frisky and go around the house looking for an attractive DC passing my brother in law (one who moved about 1 year ago) and mother in law in a family room type area behind the kitchen and to the right of that my son is half awake on a bed in an odd spot in the open asking me what I am doing but I just keep going. I circle back around to the kitchen and two of my son's college age friends are there and I think, why not. I start kissing one after some flirtation and she gets a little too tongue-y for my taste and the other friend joins in kissing me as well...it becomes a little odd (too much tongue) and I fly up and out of the house. Looking at the night sky I think of the Bonus TOTM, alien abduction. I decide I will call out for them to come and get me but my voice doesn't come out right and it is garbled and I think that I was just talking to the DC with the middle name after becoming lucid, perhaps my SC doesn't want me to call out for aliens?? I think what the heck and I try again and I can talk clearly: "Aliens, come and get me" as I am floating maybe 200 feet up. I see a orangish-red circular coloration in the sky with a smaller circle in the middle but definitely not a ship, more like an aurora and nothing is happening so I say it again and then move on. I fly back down over a country-like neighborhood with maybe 4 houses including the one I came out of with the party. There is lots of space and land in-between and green rolling hills lit up in what looks like moon-light though I hadn't seen a moon so far. Out in front of one of the homes up and to the left from my downward view I see a woman in a long flowing gown with a young child just behind her and I swoop down. We talk and there is an obvious connection between us, I tell her that she is very beautiful. She looks a little like Scarlett Johansson (who I have been incubating an image of) but her cheeks are less pronounced and her nose more narrow. She grabs my hand and says, let me show you to your room. I say that I would like to stay with her and she says "but I have the kids (two) to look after" and I say that I can help her look after them but first I lean in for a kiss and we have a passionate kiss and I am so enthralled by the realism. I can hardly believe this is only a dream. She is so beautiful, she is so natural and not the least bit mindless and as we start to get on towards more sexual activity there in the moonlit grass I return to bed and I can tell that I am fully awake and there is no going back in but I am smiling from ear to ear, very enthralled. Perhaps this was my SC giving me a "true love" DC related to last months TOTM.

#1: 3/30/14 This may just be #1 because it was my most recent and is still swirling around in my head but was very cool. I am in my car operating some car elevator that moves a car on or off of a ship. I decide I need to go back and in operating it back down it malfunctions and my car starts falling and falling. The way that I am falling makes me realize that I am dreaming. I begin to fly on my own and I'm above a city with lots of hills, green hills but very built up with so many things going on! I have the feeling that this is a foreign city, a very busy foreign city. There are not usually so many things going on in my lucid dreams. I see the word Hacienda on a sign. I think to look for more words and landmarks and see "lower level" in the stadium section of seats and I hear the crack of a bat hitting a
baseball... It's a baseball stadium! But I flew by it so quick and the stands are set up very unusually as if each section was separate and not immediately congruent to the baseball field. I keep going and I start thinking of looking for something to examine close up. This place is so green and I'm swooping around at quite a speed. Green hills within the city and DCs everywhere I am just amazed at all of the graphics processing of my brain but realize that the resolution is more like a great video game than HD reality. I find this house on a hill top and see a sexy woman. Another woman says a warning to the sexy woman and she runs inside and I try to follow but I stay bigger than the small area I'm trying to enter, it is staying small like it was in my view from up above. It is as if my brain did not correct the size when I swoop down to this house or it is as if this was always a miniature world and I a flying giant. Anyway, I try to approach the
woman but she won't stop running and screaming so I grabbed her gently like a giant grabbing a miniature doll or something looking at her, she is very cute. <edit> I start fading back to bed trying a quick DEILD but I seem to be at the end of that REM cycle.

Great idea!

My top 3 dreams for March:

Got to include my lucid because hey I became lucid! Though it was not much of a dream alas, but at least the weather was gorgeous and the blossoms were blooming and I figured it out that it was a dream. :)
Short LUCID: why van parked in mid street, caught RC fail but not FA - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Got to like this near miss though with an unintentional RC which I completely missed and the sense of humor. :)
Unintentional RC missed - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

This was my other favorite non-lucid I think (although I had a number of non-lucids I liked this month). It was a long dream and detailed and the cat's expressions were very human:
The Cat and the Murderer - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Had a couple of sensual dreams also which I enjoyed including one where I gave my husband a sensual massage in his company kitchen, and one where a queen was having foreplay with two musicians. Plus there was a nifty prison break dream, too. So overall a good dream month. :)

I like the dutchraptor style with the baby. I had a lucid a while ago that I was 100% sure that it was a dream, and the baby in the back seat (not even mine) was distracting me during a car chase. I slam on the brakes and ask my wife DC to get out and set the baby on the ground in front of her. Then I drove off. :P it gives you a better idea of the dream state when you realize that all DCs don't really exist. :P

I also like how you can tell when you wake up if you can slip right back in. If I feel the dream slipping I always "stay calm and DEILD on". :P that way I know for a fact if I am too awake from excitement or it is just the end of REM.

That is awesome Joanna! I am glad that you are getting some awesome.enjoyable dreams.
