      "N's Place / Dark Cierra" - Lucid Dream

      Just wanted to share last night's weird (b6 enhanced) lucid dream:


      04/24/2006
      "N's Place and Dark Cierra"


      So I don’t exactly remember how this dream began, but sooner or later, I was hanging out with this really cool, older but still pretty attractive, Australian woman, N, that sits in front of me at work. I’d forgotten what the setting was, at first. I think all of us at the office were out getting drunk or something, but I can’t be sure.
      Anyway, this lady and I have gotten a pretty good vibe over the last about 9 months that I’ve been here at this job. She’s into consciousness and lucid dreaming as well, and we’ve been talking about that kind of stuff forever, now. (which may be a huge part of why this becomes a lucid dream) So, back in the dream, she invites me to her apartment to hang out. (I think she has a house in reality, but in the dream it was an apartment.) I noticed there was something strange about this whole occurrence, but I hadn’t figured it out yet. I was a little more aware of my surroundings, though, because something didn’t feel right.
      I parked in front of a long brown fence with a few missing boards in it, and took a look around. It was while glancing around the complex that I happened to look up, and see a bird flying into view from behind one of the buildings. This was normal…until I noticed it was being chased by a flying shark! lol.
      I instantly realized I was dreaming and didn’t want to get myself Too excited. I couldn’t help but grin, though. I’d remembered that I wanted to spend a little more of my lucid dream time just exploring the details of different things and places, and stood in one place for a moment, just looking around and marveling at the dream world itself.
      I looked back toward the fence I was parked in front of, and I could see pieces of a little, light-colored house behind it. Walking toward the fence, I began to peer through the hole in the boarding at this house. For some reason, as I did this, my peripheral vision began slowly growing darker. The atmosphere as I was looking at this house through the fence was becoming more evil. Shadows were creeping in all around this house and my vision was zooming in and distorting like that cinematic type of shot that pulls the camera in tightly on a person or object while the surroundings grow farther away. It was starting to freak me out and I could tell that any more attention to this house would have deteriorated my lucid dream into a horror scenario.
      I turned away from the fence and my vision zoomed back out to normal. The darkness went away and it was day time again. I’d remembered that I’d come to hang out with N. For some reason, I knew her apartment was on the third floor, and I figured, since I’m lucid, why not just fly up there instead of using the stairs? I looked up at the balcony I knew to be hers and lifted up off of the ground.
      I had to keep myself steady while hovering because I’m so used to flying fast in dreams instead of slow, and kept thinking about over-shooting the balcony and the roof all together. Haha. I did fine and landed on her balcony though and just walked in through the sliding glass door. The apartment was pretty big inside and I didn’t see anyone home at first. I roamed the halls a little bit looking for her, and heard running water coming from the bathroom. The shower was on.
      Still knowing I was dreaming, I wasn’t too concerned about privacy, exactly, and I walked over to the bathroom door, which was open. However when I got to the bathroom, though the shower was on, and the shower curtain closed, there was, what looked like, blood all over white tile floor.
      “Great,” I thought to myself. “Here goes my subconscious trying to scare the Hell out of me again.”
      I crept slowly into the bathroom, staring cautiously at the bloody floor and closed blue shower curtain, nervously anticipating what kind of startling surprise I would receive on the other side. I ripped back the shower curtain and found….nothing. The shower was running, but there was no one in there.
      Both relieved and even more nervous, I turned around and walked out of the bathroom, and down the hall toward one of the bedrooms. The second I turned the corner, N leans out from behind a wall and says something like “HA!! GOTCHA, MATE!!” and almost gives me a f’ckin heart attack. Lol.
      We ended up hanging out for a while, and since I knew it was a Dream Character, and not the real N….[Edited for Content. Hahaha]

      Sooner or later, this turned into an action dream, and I had lost lucidity. Next thing I remember, there was some sort of explosion or something at the apartment complex. It had to do with terrorism or something, and we had to clear out of the building as fast as possible. My daughter was instantly with us as we jumped in the car and sped away from this complex being over-run by jihadists. (Funny how dreams just change so randomly like that.)
      We’re getting chased in my Olds by some militants in a large truck, having a hard time getting away because the ground was suddenly rocky, desert plains-like terrain instead of asphalt. At some point, we were forced to leave my car and were running through the plains away from these guys.
      After a short while, I looked back as I was running, and N, my daughter, and all of the jihadists were gone. I was standing alone by some huge power station in the middle of nowhere.
      It hit me once again that I was dreaming. That’s why everyone had simply vanished. After realizing this again, I wanted to change the scene to something else. I started think of my lucid dreaming arena so I can teleport there, but made the mistake of closing my eyes to will myself there, rather than using the spinning technique, and paid for it.
      Next thing I knew I was back in my bed, laying on my side and facing the wall, and had obviously woken up. I felt a tap on my back and my daughter was trying to get my attention, saying that she couldn’t sleep and wanted to lay with me. I said ok and let her crawl into the bed, and I put my head back down. The very next moment, she was gone again, and I was feeling around the bed for her.
      I realized again that I was dreaming. Cierra wasn’t still here, because I’d taken her home, yesterday! It was a false awakening. I was still in my bed, though, and everything felt very real. I wanted to make sure I was dreaming, and so I started to slowly fly up from the bed until I was hovering a few feet from the ceiling. Then, out of nowhere, Cierra calls me again and completely breaks my concentration and I fall back down on the bed.
      She says the exact same thing she said before, and this time, as I look at her, there is a dark, foreboding shadow fallen over her face. I remember getting really annoyed. (When she was over this weekend, she was doing anything she could to keep from going to sleep and had gotten my pretty upset a few times because she kept trying to be slick) I kept trying to dismiss her in the dream (I’m not sure if it was because I knew I was dreaming, or just because I didn’t feel like dealing with it.) But she just stared at me from behind the shadow and repeating in a creepy monotone voice about how she couldn’t sleep and wanted to lay with me.
      I said something like “go back to your room” and she just kept repeating herself. So, fed up, I got up out of bed and picked her up by her armpits and marched her back to the room. But, as I was doing this, the hallway between her room and mine grow progressively darker as we went through it, the walls and ceiling taking on a deep black/red hue the further we traveled down it. This was followed by Cierra, who’s face was still covered in a black shadow, began laughing maniacally, in my face while I carried her toward her room, the laugh growing deeper and more sinister as the atmosphere grew more and more hellish.
      Again, I didn’t like where this was going at all, and I’d had about enough, so I told myself to wake up, and finally did.

      You have great dream recall. There was only one dream where I could write 2 pages, and it wasn't even lucid.

      I hope to have a lucid one today, as I've got about 13 minutes till I go back to bed.

      Sounds like an interesting dream. Why did you wake yourself up though? If I were you I probably would have taken the chance to see why my subconcious was messing with me like that and what I could do about it.
      A dream
      is a reality that others cannot see.
      Reality
      is a dream you share with others.

      This is what I would deem, a lucid gone hay-wire .

      wow

      That was an awesome long lucid

      I like that flying up to the balcony - I don't remember trying to land in a flying dream, I have to try that.

      Also the surprise by N is pretty good.

      I notice that in a lot of lucid dreams people treat certain DCs as real people. For me I was able to treat my father as just a DC, but my brother I always treat likes he's a real person not a DC. So I was interested in your experience with your daughter DC.

      I wonder if its because some DC have a strong symbolic side so that they almost have their own consciousness. Or if its because they represent someone that we have strong love for so we can't seem them as just DCs?

      Umbrella:
      I’ve actually been trying to get a little better about not ejecting from nightmares. I do it a lot less, now, but I was just sort of like “Bah..fuck it..” and didn’t even feel like dealing with it at the time. It was learning to eject from nightmares as a kid that caused me to discover lucidity in the first place, (before really finding out about lucid dreaming) and is an impulse that has kind of stuck with me over the years, unfortunately. I think, as an artist, my over-active imagination can be somewhat of a curse when it comes to dreaming. Haha. I know I’ve got so many nightmare creatures and concepts roaming around in my subconscious that it’s sometimes hard for me to amp myself up to just say “COME ON, SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT!” if I’m not in the right frame of mind, because, psychologically, my own mind is the most formidable opponent I know, and when it wants to make an impression, it usually does. Lol.
      Hell, you dunno how much it took for me to pull back the shower curtain after seeing blood all over the bathroom floor. Hahaha.
      But, also, I’m not sure if you’ve ever had a dream after taking b-6. If not, I can tell you that they are very very vivid. It’s a double-edged sword because when they start to spiral out of control, it is exponentially harder to keep myself on top of them. Sometimes it’s a strain just to deal with them longer than I have to. Ask anyone who’s ever had a bad trip if there was a time they wish they could have just pulled the plug on the trip and sobered up instantly. I’m sure they’ll feel me.

      Qzole: Haha. Please, take mine, I got too many dreams like this as it is.

      ArchSeraph: Yeah, I know, right? It’s like “All I wanna do is go chill with a friend of mine, and I gotta go through f’ckin Silent Hill."

      Asclepius: That is interesting, isn’t it? I’ve noticed that I still treat DC’s pretty much the same way I treat people in waking life…..well, aside from the whole ability to make the earth tremble while gathering up glowing energy to surge through my hands and dispatch my attackers with a blast that would destroy 15 New York blocks thing….but since I try to never be the antagonist, we’ll just say that’s what I would do in waking life, if I could.

      awesome lucid ono (heh, that' s my new short nick for you 8) ...just popped into my head for some reason)...LMAO at the flying shark.

      Ask anyone who’s ever had a bad trip if there was a time they wish they could have just pulled the plug on the trip and sobered up instantly. I’m sure they’ll feel me. *[/b]
      haha, it's funny you'd say this...when you related the shower thing i vividly remembered an episode during my one bad mushroom trip in which i was taking a shower...when suddenly the water turned green, and then into blood on top of that the shower curtain seemed to be closing in on me, and started clinging...

      and yes, i would have sobered up instantly if given the choice i certainly can't fault you for waking yourself up...especially in a B6 dream (know exactly what you mean about the vividness).

      thanks for sharing...keep on keeping on
