Thread: Task of the Month for November 2013

You did not choose any of my suggestions

Pouring gravy on the pumpkin pie would be fun

I'll guess is time to get busy... rush through the task and then, some real lucid dreaming Like that old "Ride a Unicorn" lame task a few years ago lol.

I believe that the tasks are supposed to just be hard to do in a lucid. Waking life memory is normally lacking in lucids, but if you can pull out waking life memories like that in lucids it is a good step in a lucid journey, or if you can just incubate it into your dreams, than that is a good step in your incubation journey. You are well along into lucidity, so you probably are a lot better at pulling waking life memories than most here. Honestly one of the things I struggle with the most. I am great at pulling memories if I remember to pull them, normally I just walk around doing things from previous lucids or goals from previous lucid that I didn't finish last time. Something I am trying to get better at. Normally when I try to get better though, I start losing frequency. :/

Wrong... We have always had a golden rule for these tasks:

- Basic: Something do-able in real life that will add a partial challenge to force your memory to recall your task.
- Advanced: Something that it is impossible to do in waking life and require at least one or two dream abilities, plus recalling the task and some thinking.
- Task of the Year: Something that requires several dream abilities, dream control and huge memory recall in addition of some thinking.

Sorry, chanting a few months is a basic task... and a very, very basic one actually... Even though it is an easy task throwing a pie is actually much harder that saying the months backwards (maybe you will need to spawn a pie and/or you need the actual pie in the dream,) so it needs a bit of dream incubation or the ability to spawn a pie if you can't find one.

Woah! I didn't know that there was a rule for those. If that is the rules, then you are right. You can easily do that in waking life.

Here you go... One ToTY and the ToTMs done...

Riding a turtle, biting and breaking a shark in two and completing the ToTM underwater. (DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

Both tasks of the month and third task of the year done... only 3 ToTY to go (hence I started working on them on mid October!) However, I L-DEILDed into a brand new dream and did a 4th Task of the Year, which I will report in a different one.


I was with some friends outside doing some camping and we were chatting about ET beings and ESP. One of them, had firecrackers and lit one that looked like a tennis ball. it blew up a few times and then, it turned into a grayish tennis ball. I was told that it would take between 3-4 minutes to blow up. We started to play catch and playing the game "bomb" with it. I felt it was dangerous as we were kicking it and grabbing it with our hands, it could blow away one of our hands if we were unlucky, talk about a risky "bomb" game. I had the guts to run down so stairs, grab it with my hand and fling it away. I successfully did and it went to one of my friends. As my friend hit it, it started to explote but did not hurt my friend. It went under my car and I was worried it would blow up my car, but nothing happened.

I then went to an airport for some reason with my wife and we traeveled to Australia. As soon as I entered the plane, I was in australia already (there was no plane... the door to the plane it ported me to Australia.) We were going to some sort of hotel and I realized there was some sort of event. I felt it was about Psychic Mediumship and wondered if I could join the class to sharpen my skills. I saw a couple people chatting and it appeared it was a Christian gathering. I felt threathened as most Christians dislike Psychics. One of the gals who was very friendly tried to flirt with me, but I was not interested and left.

I went into some building that had a 12 feet deep pool, but it was like a cave. I found a lot of gold coins and started to fill up my pockets excited because I could make some good money selling them.

As I was picking up the coins, I wondered how I would take them out from the dream world into real life, and then, realized that it was impossible to do that. I decided to work on the Tasks of the Year. I was in Australia after all!

I started to swin within this cave alike pool and focused on appearing at the Great Barrier Reef. As I came out from the water, there I was. Funny enough, there was a weird sign that said Great Barr*& R4th or something like that... who cares... I was there.

I saw a sea turtle and I sat on the top of it. The turtle (that was swimming) started to sink, but it was moving forward still. The shell was very slipery, but I was able to ride it for a while. Check.

I then started to swim with my wife and I saw a great white shark. I recalled I had to kill one, so I placed one arm right above his head and the other arm on the tail. I tried to break the shark in half like if it was a wooden stick. The shark was moving nonstop, but it was not slippery, it was dry and hard like a rock. I recalled I had to bite it also. So I munched on the back of the shark and chewed a small piece. The texture was like a gummy shark, but it had a taste of salt, fish and blood. It was a bit gross.... Upon doing it, I kept pushing both ends of the shark until I head a "crack" and the shark was like a triangle on my hands... the actual skin did not break nor there was blood or anything, but the skelleton broke in two. A few seconds later, the shark vanished within my hands... weird... oh well, 3rd task of the year done.

I took a swim with my wife and while underwater, told my wife that the task was done and told her I could still do another one. As I was speaking, I remembed that it was only one ToTY per dream. I wondered what I needed to do.

My wife told me, "How about the Task of the Month." Without excitement I replied, "Oh... yeah..." and with a silly and mockery voice I told her, "What are you grateful for?" She replied, "I am grateful for my success." I said, "Good.... Now that silly months thing... November, October, September, August, July, June, May, April, March, February, January." ToTMs done...

I emerged from the water and exited the bulding. I saw a giant turkey in front of a store. The turkey was made out of plush. I believed I had to carve a turkey too, so I spawned a huge knife and pulled out some plush from it (it is a turkey, not specified it had to me an edible one, but this was not a ToTM anyway, the ones done were, so who cares.) I also remembered there was a hard ToTM to get done, something about some Pharao but I could not recall well.

My dream started to fade, so I allowed it to happen but focus on doing my own L-DEILD technique (Lucid-Dream Exit Induced Lucid Dream, a 100% success rate for a DEILD starting from a Lucid Dream.

I kept repeating to myself, "I won't move when I wake up and I will enter another lucid dream." The dream faded completely and I woke up with sleep paralysis... Then another lucid started to form. But this goes in the next dream... other ToTY done...

Are you sure that we've always had this rule for tasks? It seems so restrictive.

For example, a great Advanced task from a long time ago was to write down a waking life memory while in a lucid dream. Incredibly easy to do in waking life, but quite advanced in an LD.

Doesn't it make more sense to just go by the difficulty of the task in an LD?

I agree, but still.... Advanced tasks should not be do-able in real life... that was a golden rule that was always followed... but I guess that now these lands are lead by new queens and kings with different ideas... and as life itself, things are become less and less challenging everyday (look at the childhood on the 80s-90s and at the current childhood

Sorry for bringing up my ideas.
