I was just wondering. I'm making this my next Dream Task and i was just wanted to hear of others opinions and experiences :)
yes, i've gone back to the dinosaurs. :). I just changed the scene of my dream, and viola! The creatures of eons ago wandered the landscape of my subconcious. Beware those little raptor things, they nip at your ankles.
Ive also gone back to the Industrial Age, played on the trains.. well, flew over them is more like it.
Oh, try going into the future and stuff. Where you can have flying cars and shit. Its an idea for you :) Ill try both when I start Lucid Dreaming more frequently.Quote:

it would be interesting to see what your imagination thinks up for the future.. relate what you see to what you have seen before in movies and stuff
How about short distances? Trying to defy the space-time continuum. Go back in time and watch yourself do stuff you've done only minutes ago, or even kill yourself and see how your mind fixes that. Definitly something I've got to do when I get better at LDing. :D
Good Luck with the future thing!
I read the other day on this other website about this man who has supreme power in his ld's. He has gone back in time revisiting old memories and also into the future meeting his future daughter or grandaughter, i can't remember.
I would like to revisit past memories that would be awesome but i think i need alot more skill before thinking about that.
This has been high on my list of lucid activities, unfortunately lucid dreaming is a rarety for me so i cannot try these things, i'd love to go back to the days of the Incas of the Aztecs and also the American Indians, it would be so cool, the future would be a bit too created since i don't know what to expect of the future but going back in time would be sooo cool :)
Awrighty, my first post.
I have not had a lucid dream in several years (but want to get back into it), but I went through an amazing period--without training-- back in the mid-80s when I was involved with a lucid dream research project in the Clinical Psych Dep't at UT/Austin.
I had a number of spectacular lucid dreams over several months, and one of my recurring themes was--I kid you not--a vibrating dark closet-like space that I called "The Black Place". I could at will decide to step into this place and launch myself long distances or back in time. I visited modern India in one of my early lucid dreams, had a false awakening to meet with a friend who had traveled extensively in India as an anthropologist, and I told her (in the second [non-lucid] dream) all about my lucid dream.
I also visited ancient Egypt and ancient Peru via the "Black Place". Lots of detail recorded.
I have these dreams and all the others faithfully written down, and while the details of the places I went are pretty cool, what I'm most interested in right now is whether anyone else has experienced anything like this dark, vibrating closet as a vehicle for either time or long-distance travel?
I have not yet met anyone who has, but cannot believe it's mine alone!!:roll:
Thanks!! This looks like a really great site.:boogie:
I had two dreams in which I traveled into the future:
My first adventure into the future was quite odd to say the least, but also quite vivid. This dream wasn't lucid (I haven't had one as of yet).
-----
The first part of the dream that I can remember begins with me and a group of others whom, although I had never met them before, I felt a strong bond with. We were walking in a grassy field, which to me felt like the type of grassy median area between the two sets of lanes on the highway, but much larger across. As we were walking, I had noticed that the sky was becoming stormy and dark, a common theme in my dreams. I reasoned we were in the mid-south, possibly Kansas. There must have been buildings or a populated area nearby, as I felt the presence of civilization.
Suddenly a tornado (or something similar) began to form and touched down no more than 100 yards ahead of us. I hadn't noticed any wind or outside disturbance caused by the storm. This had sparked my curiosity, and my group and I set off towards the storm.
We had reached the edge of it, at which I think I saw an inner glowing with flashes flying through it, some type of electrical activity I thought.
There was a sudden rush of excitement as I realized that the group was going to go into the storm to see what would happen, and the next thing I new I saw the world around me spinning and aging quite rapidly. Before I knew what happened it all had stopped.
The world around me now felt desolate and deserted, a stark contrast to the 'feeling' of population/civilization I had felt before entering the storm. I looked around with my group, and everything seemed much different. There was a large amount of organic overgrowth with odd looking structures which seemed to be 'built' out of plants themselves.
As we approached the nearest building, it became clear that they were in fact made of plant material (similar to the Iskaii buildings of a game called Albion back in the mid-90's for PC). We entered the structure and walked through it. There was little light, except for the occasional hole in the roof which casted rays of light through the interior.
I remember thinking at this point that we were far, far into the future, possibly hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of years. The vegetation had looked very exotic, nothing like I had seen before.
At this point I looked to one of the walls and saw a mirror (odd in an organic building isn't it) and my reflection soon came into view. I was standing next to a female in my group wearing an orange jumpsuit, but I soon was drawn to our faces. We were much older. I was in my 40's or 50's (I'm 17 in real life), and remember being startled at the wrinkles on my face.
At this point the dream began to fade and I woke up.
------
The second dream was a little more concrete than the last. It isn't time traveling in the conventional sense, but rather the dream itself had accelerated through time (read on to understand):
I don't quite remember the details of the beginning, but I remember that I had committed some type of horrible crime or something, which had caused the local authorities or government to search for me. In a frantic panic I left the house I was in (it felt like "my" house, but it wasn't one I had ever lived in) and fled to the fence in my backyard.
At this point I thought of only two options: either surrender and possibly face incarceration or worse, death, -or- as odd as it sounds, I reasoned I could hop the fence into the old woman's yard behind us (I've never lived near an old woman in real life) and hide in the underbrush and bushes until the search was over. I figured the latter option was the best, so I hopped the fence.
At this point it became clear that I was either my current real age, or possibly younger (I felt a bit younger). I then felt an odd but smooth acceleration of time. I viewed everything in the third person, and although everything was in a rapid blur, I remembered everything that happened as it did so, as if the memories were popping into my brain instantly.
In a matter of moments the acceleration ended, and I was back in my body. I had all the memories of the past two years (which I had spent surviving in this old woman's back yard, which must have been quite large for me to have remained unnoticed for so long).
I remember a feeling of awe, or possibly a bit of bewilderment, as it had suddenly dawned on me that everything I knew earlier in my life had changed. My parent's were gone and moved away, thinking I was either dead or missing forever; my friends were gone; everything I knew had changed during my period of isolation.
It became obvious to me that two years was generally enough for my appearances to have changed enough for me to safely go back into the public. I had then hopped back over the fence, and suddenly found myself in the yard of another house than I had remembered.
I felt I should enter the house, so I opened the back door and found myself in the house of an old friend I had in real life (I had moved away from the area a few years back). I found my friend sitting in his room, looking juvenile, like I remembered him years back before I moved away. This struck me as odd, as I had aged two years, and yet he was still the same age.
I think that I must have been quite young now that I look back on the dream for my friends age to make sense: if I was already quite young, aging two years to reach the age I remember my friend would thus explain the anomaly.
I remember talking to my friend, asking him about all the changes I had missed. I think I remember him telling me that his parents were gone, or perhaps many adults had died, I'm not sure, but I felt a general feeling of sorrow coming from him.
The dream began to fade, and I woke up.

And there ya go!
Hope you had fun reading ;)
I've time traveled. Nothing move than over a day or so so that I could go to the event that was on the following day.
Go to 2009 and find a newspaper and see who the president is. :D
Go back in time to Woodstock and Monterey Pop Festival and Isle of Wight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHH!!!
I have gone to see the dinosaurs too. I once asked to see a past life. Nothing happened at first, but when I turned my head an ocean toke over the airport I was in and there was this beautiful green land and small buildings and windmills were being built. I think it was Holland. People pointed me to this woman who was supposed to be me. It was interesting.
Very interesting aerobat. I really do hope you put those writings about your dreams onto this website. We do have a forum just for that you know... *hint hint* :DQuote:

Go to tomorrow and tell me what I get on my math test.
Yeah, the middle ages seems to be my time destination of choice now that I think about it...
I've done whole sorts of things but I rarely use powers in those dreams. Instead, I use a knowledge of the future (the present) to get what I need.
I had this really crazy dream once where I used gun powder to trick everyone into thinking I had some link to god... XD I would take a barrel and fill it with either gunpowder or something else (I went to before they knew what this was), attached it to someone they thought was a witch. If it was gunpowder and exploded, well then god had just smited her. If not, she was not a witch.
Ah, that was a fun dream. In the end I saved a very pretty accused witch this way and she was quite "thankful" if you get what I mean ;P
