Over the years I have been aware of visiting familiar places. Places which do not exist in reality and places that do. It seems however that the two types of places co exist more like parralel dimensions. Ive been in the same room or house in many instances, however the area im in changes to a different version of that area, but the realistic version i would see when im awake and the altered versions i dream of are constantly the same two.
For example; My bedroom contains my bed attached to the northeast corner of the room, my television is attached to the south wall as well as my door and my west wall contains my closet.
I could dream of either the exact same room or i could dream of the version i replace the room with, which is relativly the same, however i have a flat lcd tv instead of a normal tv, the doorway is much larger and i have a set of steps leading up towards my bed.

I noticed the difference in areas repeatedly, however now i am rememebering seperate rooms as well as the building, area i am in etc. Specifically i remember visiting my highschool, which is fused with my middle school in my dreams and seperate in reality. I also visit some sort of mall and a city in ruins, an underground parking garage turned into a massive makeshift living environment. as well as a skyscraper filled with plant life called Sky Gardens. Ive also visited several real places in the world where everything is perfectly normal accept for the fact that i have my dream form. Asia, maybe tokyo, London and the UK, Canada and Russia.

Ive begun to realise what type of area im in and thusly have been able to keep my Lucid Dreams Stable. Ive created a Stability Map here> http://i549.photobucket.com/albums/i...abilitymap.png

After a few nights past my last entry I had noticed some odd happenstances which triggered my attention. The dreams were more lucid, stable and my dream control was fantastic. However, I myself, was losing balance alot. I kept tripping over myself or sort of hydroplaning on my feet. After a few runs through an obstacle course in a training grounds area i often visit in my dreams, my very own shadow came out from under me whilst i was stumbling over myself once more, and began choking me, saying " I TOLD YOU TO DRAW A TAIL YOU DIP$#!%!"
I woke up and didnt fully recall the dream until later that night. I picked up the 2- dimensional drawing i had done of my dream control form and decided to brush off the dream and leave the picture how it was, as i did not appreciate a tail. The next night was profoundly odd. The first thing i can recall is appearing in dream world with my shadow glaring at me and tapping its foot. I decided to ignore it and go about my dream elsewhere however my shadow followed me, smiling. I begin to be chased by odd creatures in my dream that seem to de stabalize the dream itself and wake me up when i interact with them. I jump into the air and spin around, activating my dream control form, or so i thought and falling on my face. My shadow laughs at me. "WTF?!" i reply. I get back onto my feet determined to get away from these creatures. When i notice I have a tail... a light blue regular size bird tail attached to my backside. My shadow is now cackling as he runs along side me. "What the hell are you doing?" I ask. "Hey, you wouldnt draw the tail so you get whatever i feel like." I run a bit more but the realisation i have a little birdy tail annoys me and i stop running alltogether, being caught by the creatures and waking up. I havent seen my shadow the nights hence, as I decided it was time to draw a tail seeing as my subconciouse was litterally sabotaging my dreams. I will say that the tail does make my dream control form look better and ... it is alot easier to balance with one also and can come in handy when your hands arent free so whatever my shadow was correct.

Finally aquired the image of my dream form. It took a long time but now that i know exactly what i look like when using dream control, lucidity isnt even a bother. Ive been noticing a change in thought and behavior as well as body language when i take control over my dream and have been trying to sculpt a 2d penciled concept of this form for a while now. It seems like i've been this form the entire time and havent realised it. When in dream control form my thought pattern becomes more emotional and bipolar. To gain max speed on land i would notice i would have to claw at the ground on all fours. My theors is that the user posseses an alternate form based upon what one sees of themself directly from their subconciouse. When dreaming we utilize this form from time to time and ive noticed the transformation take place every time i gain control of a dream or have it become lucid. Upon further experiment i have noticed a remarkable ease of dream control and lucidity, a substantial rise in power so to speak. Perhaps if my theory is correct others could more easily utilize the dream world.
