Basic Task I Fail.
4/07
5:00pm I was in a small town at a house on a hillside getting on a bicycle. I started out of the sloping driveway and went downhill thru the town..I was going pretty fast weaving around on the rough brick street and people were running and cars dodging to get out of my way when I noticed I was naked..
'Wobly Godiva?'
I made it thru both stoplights without stopping and on to the open highway where I was free to go but the bike was gone and I was flying along in my best motorcycle crouch so I cobbed the throttle and sped up to several thousand miles per hour..By now I knew it was a dream but way too much fun to worry about tasks right now. Then I thought I was supposed to go to work so I wheeled back thru the town on a bike again and up to the house and flew inside to get my work boots and thought "A Task, I can eat my boots-No,I need them for work" I stepped into them and back out to the bicycle to ride it to work and tried to figure out which part I could eat but I needed them all so I hopped on and started off downhill again and woke up...
:yddd:
Advanced task of draining the colour from an object completed
( thought I had completed basic task too whic would mean both wings would stay - it seems they were forgotten from last month ... I know your all looking at me strange wherever I turn up coz of my wings :chuckle:)
I am with some folk and realise I am dreaming as we are coming out of a stoor - M is trying to get my attention - I needed to carry on - I see a red car and remember the totm to drain the colour from an object
- "drain all the red colour out of this car" I shout out to the dream
All colour drains out and I see a pale looking car in front of me - done.
I look on the dash board for an object ( a false memory of a totm coming up :) I see a Rubix cube and reach out for it. Holding it in my hand for a few moments I move it around checking the different coloured sides. My task is to change it into something else - " I see a small yellow ball in my hand right now" I call out to my dream ...and sure enough the cube has turned into a small bright yellow ball- I am happy( not realising at the time I had forgotten the " eat something non- edible task and inserted my own task :wink:
wow cool thing :D congrats! nice idea to shout out to get the color out. i tried it several times with hand gestures and will but was not that successful. nevertheless in one lucid i managed to do it on my own by will^^ but maybe i will try your way some time soon too. asking the dream is a nice way. since you speak out your intention this is pretty powerful even if you feel unsecure. will try it more often :)
did you see the cubic morph into a ball or did you look away and back again?
random Basic I attempted:
i wanted to call out for my dreamguide again and i did. was an interesting lucid again. since this has nothing to do with the tasks of this month i spare you the details but in same lucid while the dream started to destabilize i fastly played around with a nail in the wall after some time i ripped it out and tried to it it. same experience as in waking life: hard and metallic. i couldnt eat it. i throw it away and moved on to a toothbrush and took a bite of the handle . this time i could chew it. there was no taste and the consistency was a little like wax and not that awesome too^^
so far i had not that nice experiences with eating stuff that is unedible. but maybe i should take more time for it and really sit down and try around and dont do it while moving or doing something.
also i failed with Advanced II several times: somehow i have some problems with flying since the task. i can fly but not that high in the sky. but a nice side effect is that i changed to fly ironman style :D
but i think i will focus on personal goals for the rest of the month but maybe in a lucid i will remember the task and attempt it again :)
Thanks :D I am listening to Gateway to the inner self which is giving me this slant just now :)
No I didn't look away when changing the cube - it just morphed right infront of my eyes :wizard:
I love your attempts to eat non edible stuff and I am looking forward to trying it - it's weird to think about ... I bet chewing metal would be a mind bender:alien:
Nice that your still working with the dream guide stuff - me too - good luck with your personal goals :goodjob2:
I never got dewinged at the end of February and didn't complete a Task of the Month last month either.
This is going to be my first ever month attempting this! I'm going to start super duper basic first though hahaha. I like that this gives people some basic ideas on things to do in LDs.
I kept forgetting to post it, but I did the cloud task. I'll get the link to it up tomorrow morning or something owo
I was in a dim dream but decided to just start running around, I was in the city and there had been DC and traffic I was waiting for a bus, but once running lucid it was dark and there were only buildings, I decided to summon some lamps and summoned many of them but they only made the dreamscape dim, I decided to go thru an alley and use expectation to get to a beach, I could see a lake but it was swampy, I considered eating many things even some I grabbed up from the dark ground (Light would come and go) I considered rubber thing pulled from darkness, plastic bag in swampy condition, and many many small rocks but they were all jagged or pointy or whatever, finally I returned to the city the way I came and found a tree I broke off a stick and ate it. It was chewey almost rubbery and bland if anything maybe tasted mildly of grass like the stems of long fleshy grass.
Completed Advanced Task I.

I decided to fly into construction site, and then recalled ToTM Advanced task I - draining a colour out of an object. There was a fence with brown painted metal railings. I thought about draining the colour then touched it with my index finger, watching as the colour flows into it. From brown it turned into a pale railing.
Also, didn't got dewinged from last month...
I just got back home after being busy and out of town for three weeks. Now I can finally try out some of the tasks. I'm happy to see that there are three tasks that really appeal to me.
The "eat something inedible" task sounds right up my alley. I eat a lot in dreams. Mostly really yummy edible things like brownies or cinnamon rolls. But I have eaten some pretty inedible things in the past. In fact, I did that in my very first Task of the Month waaaaay back in April of 2006. (Yes, my 10 year anniversary for my first lucid dream is tomorrow. Big milestone. :) ) It was also my first WILD. The task was to swallow a live goldfish. Being completely new to lucid dreaming I had no idea what to expect. And suddenly there I was with a very large, very real goldfish squirming around in my mouth. I hadn't known that lucid dreams could feel so totally real. I stood there for a long time with that fish in my mouth. It was too large to swallow whole, but the thought of chewing it was too gross to consider. Desperate to complete my first Task of the Month, I finally swallowed. The goldfish went about half way down, then became lodged in my throat. I started to gag and choke. And that woke me up.
And I actually did that on the last day of the month so I never got official credit for it. But in my mind, it definitely counted.
Ahhh, the memories. Ten years worth now.

I'm behind in everything this month, :crying:
I've been getting lucid late in dreams and by then the story is so far gone I couldn't do a task even if I could remember one.. :yddd:
First time trying task of the month this month!! I accomplished the "eat something inedible" and "drain colour from an object" in one really lucid night here:
Two Lucid Dreams, Two TOTMs and a Lot of Fun! - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
Not to put too fine a point on the question, but does (ahem! :embarrassed:) going down on a woman in a lucid dream constitute "eating something inedible?" If so, it would be my very first "successful" TOTM. :bliss:
Don't worry. I'll wear a hair net and wash my hands before I serve anyone food in my dreams.
Still, no one has answered my question. Can I claim credit for having accomplished one of the TOTM's? :ohyahbaby:
I'm not one of the authorities on the matter but as long as nobody else is out here it seems, I will try to answer without anymore heckling.
Here's just my take on it and I have never been denied wings..If you were lucid and consciously munched this lunch as a task then it likely would count.. If you tripped on the carpet and fell face first into it then it wouldn't..It's kind of left up to you, If you think you did it as a task go get your wings..
:yddd:
Yeah, it's more the latter situation TBH. I had the LD, and later (while perusing the forum) saw the TOTM. Oh well... :oops:
This is my first time attempting a TOTM! Woo!

I mean, The new tasks will be here at midnight! RIGHT? :yddd:
Ohh, snap! I hope I'm not too late to post here what tasks I tried / done this month!
Finished Basic Task I several weeks back but forgot to post it here (was preoccupied with spellbee's comp)... Anyway, here is the relevant part and the full DJ of the night:
DJ: Spellbee's spring comp, Day 5Quote:
Rubbing my hands helped and I looked at the daughter's face and her smile helped me to refocus and be invulnerable to the berries. "mmm, not bad!" I replied, while the zombies looked shocked... I whispered to her that they are poisonous before going to the bathroom (while Max was being called on stage). I found a corner empty of people and summoned a steal rod in my hand. Then I used my teeth to sharpen one tip of it and the metal I ate in the process had the texture of sand and taste of blood (did it for the points :D). Anyway, I also had some more of the berries, so I crushed them in my hand and rubbed them into the serrations on the tip of the beam (also had to re-stabilize again, rubbing the shirt again).
I also tried Advanced Task II (lay on a bed of clouds) during the early morning of the 30th... Was doing a VILD and straight away focused on laying on clouds (because not much time was left to finish this task)... But soon after I lost touch with my real body after achieving the visualization, my nephew woke me up. So this is probably not considered a successful attempt, more like a successful visualization rather than a lucid. Oh well, silver wings it is! :tongue:
