Ohhhhhhh you little devil. You caught that before I edited it out. I saw your profile pic when I was winging you and was like "DAYAMN!!" then thought it was inappropriate of me. Oh well, too late

Well I appreciate someone trying to be sensitive to others, but if you read some of my dream journal entries, I'd hope it'd be obvious I'm not the reserved type -- let alone and post such pics to then just expect your silence :-p I don't like imagining all the stiffled voices, please stOP, STOP giving me NIGHTMARES!!!! heh =)

Alright! I actually got one done!! I suppose it's about time, since I have been at this lucid dreaming thing for... oh, exactly two months now. o.o Well, it feels so cool to actually be winning this achievement. Wings of glory, here I come.

Basic Task ii: After I psychically murder a gang of thugs who threaten me in an elevator (it wasn't as epic or elegant as it sounds; but it got the job done), I decide to visit a different dream scene and escape through an opening in the walls. It just sort of wound up existing there and it wasn't physically big enough for me to normally fit through it; but I was able to squeeze through it with the power of dream control. As I was doing so, I had this particular lucid task in mind and I was hoping to find someone, a good dream character, on the other side, to pinch.

On the other side, there was a well-lit room and I saw a woman - kind of old-looking, I think - dressed in pink. Nothing too colourful; just a plainly pink shirt and long skirt. She certainly wasn't wearing anything green, so she was the perfect candidate. I ran up to her, got close, hoping that she wouldn't move away, and pinched her in the arm. In response, she simply looked up at me and coldly said, "I don't feel comfortable with you doing that." Boy, who knew my dream characters were so chillingly uptight? I mean, I may have expected her to run away or be angry or ask why I did that; but that was sort of... well. Anyway, I certainly got the experiment results.

There was more to my lucid dream from that night but I haven't posted the dream journal entry for it. So, for now, I'm just posting this excerpt from the dream here. Boy, I know this is just a basic task but I feel so accomplished. Thanks for all the help provided to me in my lucid dreaming journey; now I hope to tackle some of the greater lucid tasks relatively soon!

Congrats AstralVagabond -- very cool! My DCs seem like yours -- pain is a sensitive topic there.

I personally avoid any tasks with negative ideas, like pinching this month, or zombies last month. I just don't want/need to give air time or mental space to negative ideas. For this reason, I'm pretty much unable to do task of the year, it's all too grim. I'd rip my own heart out though, that's just cool. And I have my negative moments that are fairly entertaining, I'm just fussy 'bout when/where/why and would rather it be spontaneous =)

Oh, neat. And good going on your lucid task as well! The bit with all the dream characters lining up was funny.

*Starts singing* My middle name inquiry brings on the DCs to the yard...

Well, i ve always loved ancient greece and rome, so this was an interesting task. i have no idea if these are anywhere near thw same time periods, but i was Ezio auditore de firenze (assassins creed). turns out that aliens were the potential killers of ceaser, and i managed to ninja flip off of a coliseum parapet onto the ship, killed, the guards, and then there was this weird time warp thing involving julius being doctor who (no good recall on that part). anyway, i dropped julius back in rome, but it was, like, the opposite side of thee mediterrranean, so i thenn had to sale back to italia as edward kenway (assassins creed 4), with ceasar in tow.

I was looking at my arse (as you do, and why didn't it make me lucid that I was able to do that?) and it looked great, all firm and with a healthy glow to the skin, and I thought, "Well, look at that! What a nice, perfectly shaped bottom! If I just tone up the backs of my thighs a bit, I'll have the bottom of a 17-year old."

Thanks for the recall!

Pics or it didn't happen

I did include a picture. Animated and all! And that's not even counting the mental image I gave you of my fabulous derrière.

Lawyered. On my first lucid I asked my mom for her middle name. She gave me her last name. Details in my DJ.

Congratulations Sibyline for acheiving Task of the Year Rear!

My cunning plan to overshadow the fact that I'm failing miserably at TotM seems to be succeeding!

Lucid Dream #86: Being a Dream Guide to a Random Character, Basic TOTM - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

"A few moments later I become fully lucid. I briefly stabilize and begin exploring the subdivision. It has a feeling like my cousins' sub. Large trees and single-floor homes.
I encounter a group of dream characters. 5 children and a mother. I think back to the dream goals for this month, to ask a dream character for their middle name. I singled one kid out of the group. He had the face of the bully from my school and I thought about attacking him. No, this DC is not ill-willed. Let's show him around the dreamworld.
So I asked him his first name. I can't recall it, but I know it wasn't anything phenomenal or interesting. I then asked him for a middle name. He thought for a second then told me.
"Paulson"
Okay, I asked the boy to follow me, telling him that I wanted to get somebody else. I decide to manifest my dream guide. I find a house across the street. I tell myself that she is living in that house...

Ha ha, can't wait to do these ;D

I got silver wings, just in the nick of time. I had 4 LDs last night, probably due to my low tolerance for alcolol.

I first asked my helpful cat, then my dad for their middle names. My cat answered honestly, and in a way so did my dad.

Also tried the bonus task but didn't quite make it.

4 LDs: TotM middle name success and alien fail plus Monster High bar

I would have been so embarrassed, had I not managed to complete the task I had submitted!

Just in from Mordor eh, You're gonna love this place :yumdumdoodledum:

so i havent been here in ages, I had an epic lucid dream the other night so i thought I'd have another look on this forum and TOTM.
so... aliens! While I was technically abducted, or saw any aliens, this is what happened:

My lucid dream was fading, I tried to deepen by rubbing my hands together. I went into complete darkness and then saw some lights. There was all of the moon phases flashing in front of me and then a bright white light.
I came to in a room but it wasn't on earth. I knew it belonged to some other-worldly being. It looked quite ordinary, but there were pictures of different galaxies and star systems around the place.
There was a stereo playing some music, I'd never heard it before and I wondered, 'where is this music coming from if I its not coming from my memory? am I making it up?' then I heard another song come on that I recognized the chorus. I wondered what would happen because I didn't know the rest of the words. Then they started singing in gibberish!!

ok here's the really interesting bit!
as I left the room, I looked outside and I saw all these clear domes, like big bubbles with houses inside of them. When I woke up I wondered how to describe them, the words 'eco-sphere' came to me. I looked up ecosphere and I turns out that it's a closed ecosystem type aquarium, which was developed when 'NASA was researching self-contained communities for space explorers to live in during long-term space flights' !!!

I haven't been very successful with dream tasks this month. There's been an ongoing stressful situation that's made it hard for me to relax and focus. Plus I got put back on early morning shifts again, which messed up my sleep patterns. Let's hope next month is better.

I feel ya Thena, same here

Fun fact: I have never completed a task on here or a task I have wanted to complete doing something wise.

So, I really hope I have good luck next month.

Onward and upward ..... Let the countdown to April tasks begin

"I find myself in a car park outside a large building. I flag down the first man I see and tell him, "I want to be abducted by aliens. Take me to the place where they do that.""

Loving it!

So I'm wondering if this whole "avoid alcohol for dreaming" advice is real or bunk. I've had hardly a drop in 7 months except for New Year's Eve and I woke up on New Year's Day with decent recall with a morning LD.

Enjoy your wings for a few more hours, April TOTMs on the way!

Here they are! http://www.dreamviews.com/tasks-mont...il-2014-a.html
