Thread: Lucid Task For The Month Of December 2005

That's the first lucid task I sucessfully complete out of actively trying 3 of them...

I want to try the advanced lucid task, but I doubt I'll be able to pull it off. The dumpster diving seems a little dull to me. A good easy lucid task I thought of that I might try is find your old physics teacher(or one you have currently) and defy the laws of physics in front of him and tell him how you can't believe he's been a phony all this time. And how he should give you free candy because of it. (I have yet to taste candy in an LD)

Well for my lucid task I chose dumpster diving. Santa has elves, he dont need any help - heheh. Well our baby woke us up around 3 for a feeding. So we fed her (put her back to sleep) and I put on my lucid induction mp3 and listened to it for about an hour. I finally knocked back out and in the later morning went lucid. I immediately didnt recognize where I was, I was outside somebody's house, whos? I dont know. So I immediately started looking for the dumpster. This whole time I'm rubbing my hands together so I dont loose the lucidity and some friend (who I didnt recognize) was following me and blabbing about stuff (I wasnt paying attention really). So finally after I go around the outside of the entire house I see the dumpster. I'm thinking gosh, finally. Seems like it took my mind a while to create it or something. So this thing has like 5 flip top lids I have to get through. When I finally get to the last lid and open it, theres not a bunch of garbage like I expected. I only found a few cleaning products like SHOUT stain remover. I thought it was funny how my mind must have been putting things together, dumpster and cleaning? Hmmmmm. After pulling out a few products I remembered I was supposed to project myself to my friends apartment and describe contents like "real time viewing" So I took and started flying, much later I couldnt find her apartment. Maybe I should have spun there. I always think that if there is astral travel flying seems like the natural way to go.

Later on, I had a false awakening and went lucid again. I was doing tricks for my family in the living room but they werent impressed. I even had Mr. Incredible show up at the door, it just scared my son. Hey I tried to entertain when I have these powers!

Awesome! You're doing great!

finished the advanced task last night through dream re-entry WILD....

At first i was like "oh man this is gonna be freakin impossible" but i did it! I started out in some wierd building at first and it was pretty dark so i run down the hall lookin for a lightswitch but i told myself "screw the light, im gonna help santa deliver presents for the advanced task!" So i crouch down and jump through the ceiling flying up into the sky and theres santa's sleigh! It took me about 10 seconds to reach it and when grabbed onto it and when i was holding onto it i noticed that it wasn't santa in the sled, it was a snowman lol. So i was like "whatever, i'm still gonna finish this dream" and a few seconds later we reach a bunch of houses so i jump off the sled and the snowman starts droppin the presents on the ground expecting me to deliver. so I delivered about 4 until i reached a house where this guy kept breakin all the presents he got because they were toys LOL, So i said "ok here you go" and tossed em another and he was happy. Then i dunno what happened i just lost consciousness and woke up. But man that was fun!

Snowman! Oh man! It's amazing what the subconcious does to you sometimes!

Yeah i guess it could have been anything i wanted since it was my dream, wonder why a snowman haha... Maybe tomorrow i will fly up to the sleigh again and throw him off and make him go SPLAT!

[quote]I must say, where do you come up with these ideas? They are odd and unsual but so are dreams now aren't they? 8)

Here's a possible idea for Lucid Task.
Go Kareoke your favorite song in any bar in your dream. The trick is you have to sound exactly like the person or band you are trying to replicate. Can your brain change your voice???

Actually yes, even when awake(but not when awake and sober).

Last night I had an LD and I was riding in a car with my friends. I had them stop when I saw a dumpster on the side of the road. I opened up the top and inside were four other smaller trashcans(or at least their lids) I opened them up and sifted through the garbage. It was mostly coffee grounds but there were a few other things in there that I can't remember. I think they were specific brandname products with made up names.

That was a cool dream, earlier I had raced my brother to a cemetery on top of a hill. He rode a tricycle and I levitated. It was a beautiful scene, like in the spring. On one side of the small cemetery was a washed-out bridge with a river raging below. Awesome scenery.

Guys, I just got an idea. Try to find your way through a maze! I know I have trouble remembering locations and directions in my dreams, but if you were truly lucid, it might be fun. Or you could just fly threw the walls to the end

I did an incubation for this one. The bloody trash had only bananas in it. As the point of this exercise was to see what I could find, I didnt change it to something more appealing and accepted the fact that there was only damn bananas. I still cant figure out why there was only bananas as I rarely eat them or think about them but maybe I was craving one while I slept. Humbug....

As possibly a future task. Has anybody tried asking a DC to take you to your 'control center'. Im thinking of trying this and seeing what I may be able to do there. I wonder if I can 'turn up' my memory or lucid ability. Anyway just a thought

Just for kicks I decided to do this normal task this morning.

The only thing I could find was a big blue refuse bin about 4 feet high and a couple wide. I opened it up and there was a couple garbage bags inside it that were tied. The only real "item" that I could find was kitty litter, which was pretty nasty so I left it in there.

Done helping santa. boy what a bitch he was

Exactly?! why didnt the jolly bastard appreciate my help?

although i did say he was fake alot and told him he was in a dream.. still.. you dont soccerpunch a kid if youre santa!

Quote from my thread called "You're dreaming.":

So I decided to try the months task, I wouldn't bother helping santa, because there was no snow, and it looked like summer, and all that.
So...
Well, summoning has never been a problem for me, and with this increased dream control and all that, it was very simple.
\"I want a dumpster.\"
Then, right in front of my eyes, I got a dumpster.
Lying by the tree which is beside my house.
Looked around in it...There was just trash, trash, and more random trash.
Still, I had to find something, so i picked up a random thing from it, and found a...
Bottle.
A glass bottle.
I put it in my abnormally large pocket, and decided to do something cool.[/b]

I accomplished the advanced task last night.

I'd been lucid for a while, messing around in this big office building that this particular dream was set in. I decided to fly; so I went through a big frosted window (I've been getting better at that--going through things, I mean, and flying); and soon I was up in the sky. It was really interesting because I was controlling my movements more mentally than physically: If you will yourself to go upwards, you will. That sort of thing.

Anyway, I flew upwards for a while until I saw Santa Claus. Apparently, he was on a budget, because he was riding a single moose-sized reindeer. I flew over and landed on the reindeer behind him; and we started delivering presents. They were fist-sized, red, solid packages decorated with bows; and you could throw them so that they would home in on a chimney. I figure they probably expanded into full-sized presents once they got under the Christmas tree.

There was more to that dream--it was uncommonly long--but it wasn't about Santa, so I shall stop with that.

Anyway, yay! My first advanced lucid task accomplished (before the month ran out, anyway)!

Krippe, more details please

I did the Lucid task - go dumpster diving ha ha ha. I found it funny when I remembered late in the evening that I had actually done this task, and did not recall the dream until I was walking my dog in the snow this evening. The snow triggered the dream memory recall. I did it quite early, and very soon after falling asleep last night I was lucid. I’m not sure what brought the lucid task idea to pop up in my head, just thought I’d give a try for a hoot since I read them every month but haven’t tried to do them yet. I was in a winter scene in the mountains, near a number of camps or lodges. I summoned the dumpster, sat in it, caused it to bounce with me in it then went falling into a valley below near a lake. The lake was iced over, and after falling for what seemed like a few minutes, I landed near the shoreline in the snow with a puff, and plume of snow surrounding the dumpster landing sight. It was a hoot! The wind during the fall swirled around the dumpster as I fell – I could feel it in my hair. It had its fair share of thrill. I think the garbage was frozen though, it had a little snow on the top, so no smell- No complaints there….

The dream went on with me visiting the locals at the lodges at the frozen lake. I didn’t think about the helping Santa with the presents –slipped my mind .

I was finally able to complete the easy lucid task this month. I've been in an abominable dream slump as of late, so I was pleased with last night. I took 6 mg of melatonin, for the first time in more than a month, so maybe that helped. I definitely noticed a big difference.

I was on a small lake with huge pine trees all around the perimeter. It was shaped like a bowl, so I couldn't see the horizon. I flew up into the the air and flapped over the edge of the trees, and I see a spectacular view of a town. But it's not just a normal town, it has extraordinary palaces all over. I don't even know how my mind was concocting these intricate buildings. I started flying down to one that looked like a castle, and I decided that I would arrive as the king of this village, welcomed by lots of people and with a crown on my head. When I landed in an open corridor of the castle, it ended up as a crappy looking hotel building! Apparently my mind considered this a funny joke. I was at this point at my height of lucidity, and I was looking for something to do. I remembered the dream task, and looked around and found a bevy of dumpsters all around me. I dove into one and it was pretty much empty except for some kind of papers. I smelled the inside to see if it would stink, but it did not. I was a little disappointed, so I tried to do the advanced task......

I crawled out of the dumpster and tried to remember the 2nd task. When I remembered, I looked over and their was Santa Claus going by like a speed demon, and I ran and tried to catch his sleigh. I was literally a few inches off when I grabbed, and I watched as he sped down the snowy road without me. I took flight but could not catch him. I then noticed that someone was being towed on a rope behind the sleigh with skis. He was skimming all over the place, and he kept making tremendous falls and bouncing up in the air and hitting trees on the side of the road. It was hilarious.

Anyway, I'll work on the next task again. Hopefully Santa will lay off the caffeine so I can catch him this time.

oh yeah! i did it, i did it! i helped santa a bit... and after a couple months of not even trying to ld, i did it...

i TRIED to wild, but i didnt... but i still had an ld...

beggining of dream, not lucid, whatever...... then a guy came up to me and was like "dont worry, this now a lucid dream...." and i was like "no, i already checked, it isnt..." then i did a reality check to make sure, and sure enough, it was a dream!!

so then i tried flying, did it for a while.....

then i rememberd the task, summoned (for the first time) santa from the moon (he looked like an invader zim type of santa..) and we flew around and i handed gifts to children as an elf... but i still did it!!!!!!!!!

ahha, that was fun.

^__^

I went dumpster diving and found lots of food, actually. i kind of blende the two together, and found stuff to deliver to people, and it was a lot fun.

more if you PM me, as i dont want to take up too much room, and i ahve an errand to run (if i didn't post now, i would forget)

Usual D.I.L.D., began as character Medoc (of waking creation, but I frequently dream him) in snow, late-ish evening, near a forest of what must have been firs. Very soon occurred to me that irl I am not, in fact, Medoc, and could not be in snow. Sat down in snow, which felt like fine, damp flaky salt crystals. Thought about snow, and that I had come up with such detail when I have never been in snow. Thought about Christmas. Began to think about wolves, then remembered task. Looked at forest. Obligingly, harness-bells grew audible at great distance, and soon after crunching and sliding of snow. Large sleigh travelling at speed burst out of forest, skidded to a halt. Six reindeer... seemed visually right. Santa in coat of maroon... suede, I think... trimmed with white fur, with fur-lined hat -- not nightcap style -- on his head. Not fat, neatly trimmed white beard, shoulder-length straight white hair. Medoc-me said, "Well, you know the story." Santa nodded, indicated that I should get in.

Sleigh did not fly, as such. Travelled instead just above ground level. This was exhilirating. Crossed ocean at great speed. Icy spray as we cut the top of swell. Reached pebbled, shallow-sloping beach. Entered open forest, then onto a road. Soon reached houses. Stopped. Santa gave me a small sack. Led me to a house, placed my hand on the doorknob which grew hot, and then opened easily. He moved on to another house, I went in. Realised I had forgotten about working out what presents go where, decided the sack was now officially magic, pulled out right presents, placed under tree. Left, jogged to next house, touch-unlocked door... etc. Repeated for probably eight houses up the street, but cannot remember details of other than the first three... think I got lazy. Memory is a lot of grey space, a few corners, and half-hearted Chritmas trees.

Was woken before anything else could be done.

Hm. Sorry about the in-detail post, but for some reason I really wanted to share. The simple magic of it has -- for a change -- cheered me up all day. I'm also very happy that there are no holes in my memory of it, except for those last houses, which were probably just full of holes to start with.
