Lifting Haevy Objects

[Blizzz]

What has been your experience with trying to pick up objects that are obviously way to heavy for you to pick up? Last night I was helping a friend move in an LD and was doing a lot the heavy lifting such as picking up ovens with one arm and bringing them up flights of stairs with one arm. It seems really difficult to do for me for some reason, but I was able to do it after "thinking" about it for a while.

Well I went rockcliming in a dream once, and I could pull my self up with just one arm quite a few times and it was relatiively easy.

In a dream I had a couple of nights ago, a really big person was trying to kill me (I was at low lucidity) I tried to make them go away by closing my eyes and imagining them gone, but it didnt work so then I used force lightening on them and it was a real struggle to send them into the washing line. The same thing happened with a girl trying to kill me a second later, and after she had gone I remember sitting on the grass breathing heavily

Usually whenever I want to move an object heavy or not, I just point to it and direct it to where I want it to go. It took me many, many tries to now be able to do this but I'm glad I kept at it. I feel like I have magical powers whenever I move objects without touching them in my LD's. I can even make people disappear by just telling them to "go away" if they are bothering me.

I can do the point and move as well, it's a lot of fun. It's when I actually try to physcially move something that I normally couldn't. I think it's just because it's a physical limitation that I have in real life and it carries over strongly into the dream. But like I said, I was able to pick the things up, it just took alot of creative effort to do so.

if you mean with lucidity then yeah iv picked up cars and stuff no problem

In my first LD I flung a van but that is all really. Super streangth is nice but I am all about the flying (and getting DCs to do things for me)

When ever Iw ant to move stuff, I have a little more fun. Instead of it just "popping" where I want it. I just Lift it Telekeneticly, and Its fairly easy. The heaviest thign I've lifted so far is my sister (10 years Old.) No Biggy. =

I like the telekinetic approach too. I've done everything from moving a cup, to making the sun rise and set on the horizon. 8)

One time, I went spontaneously lucid in a dream, and I looked at this building nearby, looked through the windows in the lobby so I could see on the other side of the building, where this guy was standing next to a tree. I crouched down like a sprinter getting ready to take off, and i grabbed the tree with my mind. I started to pull, as hard as I could, while sinking my fingers into the dirt and grabbing the ground, so I didn't move. When the attraction between me as a physical body and the tree reached an event horizon, I let go of the ground and started flying through the air toward the tree at an incredibly high speed. I blew through windows on one side of the buiulding then the other, released my grip on the tree in mid flight, aimed at the guy standing by the tree, and then drop-kicked him straight in the jaw at like 70 mph. I'm pretty sure he died instantly.
