The unknown gift / A very strange lucid experience
In my dream I held a gift for someone in my hand. It was wrapped in light grey paper and tied with silver ribbon. It felt like it contained a roll of papers, but I didn't know what it was. Then I thought, if I brought this gift for someone, how can I not know what is inside? This must be a dream!
Immediately I found myself in bed waking... or so I thought. It was not my actual bed, but I didn't realize. So I just lay there and let myself fall back to sleep in order to continue the lucid dream. It didn't. Instead everything went black and my body started buzzing intensely. I commanded myself: "Lucidity now!", but the blackness persisted and I woke up (dreaming) again briefly. This waking / falling asleep repeated a few times, then I decided to lie this out. So I slipped back into blackness and the buzz gradually fell over my body like a blanket drawn up from feet to head. It became more and more intense until it was nearly unbearable. Then I began to move like a magnet that is pushed away by another. I opened my eyes and found myself moving through the room I was in, still lying on the bed which moved with me... or did the room move around its content? Fear caught me, I couldn't wake up fully anymore. The dream swapped over into my assumed waking reality. I was trapped. I awoke in my actual loft and made a reality check... positive. I was awake and wrote down the experience in my diary. This is a summary of it.
And the moral of the story is... always do an RC when waking up or your dreams gonna fool you. That was a pretty intense experience and I could feel a weaker echo of the buzz in my body even after waking up.
