2nd LD....10 seconds longer than the first

[Amethyst Star]

Yeah! In about a month I've had 2 LDs. It was 2 nights ago, but I haven't gotten around to posting it until now. Anyway, this one lasted about 25 seconds (rather than my last 10 second one). Here it is. After waking up I was very focused on having a lucid dream and fell back to sleep. It was mostly a normal dream for a while, but I was about half-awake at one point. I saw this guy with a white straw-thingy and he was looking at it. He didn't notice, but with my camera view I saw something moving inside it (fully accompanied by the movie industry's sudden "surprised" sound that's usually in a soundtrack to try and shock you). It was black and in my unrealized lucid state (that's an oxymoron, but it's true) I wondered what would happen if the black thing came out of the straw. I made it happen and it ended up being like the black worm-type-thing that comes out of the machine's arm in "Matriculated" from the Animatrix. Anyway, I made it go into the guys arm....and it ended up being my arm, and then I made it pull forward. Then I got the cool feeling of my dream-self being pulled from my body and that's when I started to do the double-feeling thing where I can still feel my sleeping body IRL but also feel the movements of my dream body. So, I started to simply walk. It felt so stinking real! I could feel my feet hitting the hard, only slightly-carpeted floor. However, my real eyes were still shut and so everything seemed black. I tried to open my dream eyes but it wouldn't work. Then I could feel that ever-so-real feeling slipping and I managed to shout out "More Clarity!" It worked for a little bit but then it started to fade again. So, I found myself back in a regular-type dream world, but I was still lucid. So I tried to recapture that feeling, but I didn't seem able to. It started to go back into a lucidless dream but I woke up shortly after. But that was cool! I'm not sure if it was MILD or just a random becoming of lucid....wow, that made a lot of sense. Anyway, I just thought I'd share that. -Amé

I don't consider myself raised until I can raise myself in the air or summon something. There's no telling how long that'll take. -Amé

Sorry to raise an old topic but I just thought I'd point something out.... Originally posted by Seeker I estimate, maybe another month tops! In about a week in a half it'll have been 3 months....stupid school, taking my time away... Still frustrated, especially a couple nights ago when I told DCs to do RCs and I didn't even bat a lucid eye.... *sigh* -Amé
