Bah another task completed by me
Quote:
I got lucid after... bah after I don't remember what, but I kept on dreaming lucidly until the dream began to fade. Only then I remembered the Lucid task
Since my dream was ending, I struggled to make it last longer, and I managed to. I consciously created a background suitable for finding a DV member: their bedroom :>
And for some reason NeAvO was just standing there, sitting on his bed (which was pink, so to say - sorry neavo, I wanted to find a girl meh, but you showed up so..)
After greeting him and getting closer, I decided to do... untowards things to poor lil Neavo (lol I find him attractive, so what?)... But after a kiss (again, sorry neavo :D) the dream faded and I couldn't make it last longer.
I know it was a short dream, but bah, I deserve some credit for prolonguing the dream don't I?
Btw, I know +/- what neavo looks like, he has a photo on his profile, so no need to draw anything... unless you want to know what his body looked like :D (18 or older only)
Haha wow, DV member lucid sex dreams. Well done.
:clap:
... Tmi!
I managed to break my LD drought in spectacular fashion last night and complete the basic task.
Previously, I have had to rely on DILDs as I have not been able to induce a lucid myself... I tried the DEILD method last night and had 7 LDs back to back. Unfortunately they were all quite short (30s - 2 mins each). On my 7th, I remembered this month’s tasks. I approached the first group of DC I come across walking down the street and asked them if anyone was a member of Dream Views. To my surprise a girl stepped forward and said she was Crystal74 she looked early 20s about 5"6 light brown/blonde hair. I asked her a few questions but she seemed a little clueless (I guess this just represented my subconscious mind :shock:)
I then summoned a Portal in my peripheral vision on the wall but as I ran towards it the dream slipped away.
You know I do this every Saturday (I love the smell of clean sheets) and never has it worked, this Saturday I changed them and had a mini lucid. I think I might have had your reasoning in my subconscious!!Quote:

If you want to skip to the exact part where I complete the task, read the orange part.
I am flying over mountains covered with snow and evergreen trees. There is even a small ski hill with a lodge. The sun is shining very brightly, and shines off the snow so that it reflects beautifully. As soon as I begin to fly very high, I realize that I am dreaming. I feel like shouting "I am Dreaming!" to the whole world, but in my past dreams that has attracted unwanted attention from DC's, so I stay quiet.
Right away, I remember the lucid task and my goal to go skydiving. Though I don't want to end my flight, I know that I need to get this done.
Then things start to go wrong. Nothing really goes as planned after this point, though I DO manage to complete the task. I am now finding quite difficult to control things. (Which is not usually a problem for me, but it has been coming up more and more.)
I guess I am so excited, I don't think of the original details I had gone over in my head so often. I just summon up a portal and there it appears in the sky, directly in front of me. It is like a black hole in the sky, but it has a reddish-orange outline and it's square. Not to mention that it is tiny. I am disappointed with the portal, but I figure, since it IS a portal I may as well use it. I fly towards in but as I get close, I veer off to my right and cannot steer myself back.
I think to myself "Oh well, no big deal. I'll just make a new one." so I conjure up another portal in the middle of the sky. This one is also a black square with a reddish-orange rim, but this one is slightly larger. It looks really strange against the blue sky. I try to fly into it, but yet again I cannot fly to my left. It's like being pushing up against an invisible wall. I miss that portal too.
I decide to try one more time. This time I go lower to the ground. I am right above the ski hill. There is a small group of people in winter dress standing on the slope. I place yet another portal in front of them. This one is a black, upright oval with a reddish-orange outline of energy and gold designs.
I fly very low to the ground and very fast. About 12 feet away I know that it is going to work, and I speed through the opening.
Once I am through, I know that I am no longer flying, but standing. I am in a dark tunnel-like place. I realize that for some reason I have not passed through the portal, but I am stuck IN it! Here and there I can see flowing yellow patterns and lights ahead of me and around me. I see a faint light in the distance and a dark, hazy picture begins to appear in front of me. I walk to the end of the tunnel and step into the picture.
I step out into a kind of floating crystal pod. Everything is tinged purple. It's like being inside a crystal and finding that it's hollow. I see a dark, menacing city beyond the walls of my craft. It's mostly sky scrapers and floating cars. There is also some kind of travel tube. There is no sun. Only a faint unnatural light coming from behind large gray clouds. There are also various bits of old and unused equipment on the floor of my crystal cage.
I am definately NOT in an airplane. I try to imagine myself in an airplane, ready to go skydiving. I can sort of see an overlayed image of what I want over my dream, but I'm finding it very difficult to picture what I want.
Unfortunately I don't remember anything after that, so I guess the dream ended. So I did manage to finish the task, but I sadly did not manage to go skydiving, much to my disappointment. but I guess there is always next time.

AdamA, I say that if you gently tap your head on your pillow while saying "I will have a lucid dream", it will come to pass! For example; tap once while saying "I", tap once while saying "will", tap once while saying "have", etc. Then go to sleep KNOWING that you now have no choice but to LD!
So sayeth your LD gatekeeper. :meditate:
Also congratulations to El-Coto and indescribable for completing the tasks! :D

Wow, Kromoh, interesting dream.
We need to make Neavo the advanced task some month! :rolllaugh:
I tried the Dv member Task again. I'm still sruggling with getting the right peopel there. But here it is. (I also try other old tasks again, plus other things I had wanted to try.)
Dream:
Then things transition, I am with a big group of people in this big starirwell area.
I suddenly see my dad (who 's dead) hurrying up the stairs. I am excited to see my dad. But right as I get to him and reach for his sleeve, I realise that I'm dreaming.
I look at this big group of people. I want to try the DV member task again. Surely there is a DV member in this large group. I scan the faces for someone familiar. They are mostly teenagers, and I don't recognise anyone. So I start asking around. "Does anyone know any DV members?"
At first I have trouble getting any volume in my voice. This has been a problem in some of my LDs. It's like I'm trying to talk with my real mouth, yet I can't because of sleep paralysis. But then I am finally able to use my dream mouth.
One of the boys responds to me and points to the floor above me and says, "Try the boy with the wheelchair"
I climb the stairs to a dark haired boy standing by a blond boy in a wheelchair. I suddenly realise I don't know which boy I was reffered to. So I ask them, "Are either of you DV members?"
They both nod and say, "Yeah..."
So I continue, "Have either of you ever had a Lucid dream?"
The dark haired boy nods, but the other boy asks, "Well, what exactly is a lucid dream?"
I said, "Well, it's when you're dreaming, then you suddenly become "awake" in your dream--you become consious that you are dreaming, and if you have good control, you can do anything...."
I said that all in a way that left then both looking at me like it was the absolute coolest thing ever.
So of course that made me want to show off a little. I continued "...like this."
And I suddenly stood up on the stair rail. Beside me was a three story drop onto concrete. I stood dramatically, then let myself fall backward. I fell until I was almost to the bottom, then righted myself and landed feet first. I then kicked off again. I did the same thing in reverse. As soon as I got to the ceiling, I turned so I was "standing" on the ceiling. Then kicked off again to the floor.
I believe a did this several times. I enjoyed the way it felt. It was like I was able to switch the direction of gravity in the middle. It was a very cool feeling.
Then I stop and decide that I really want to try the Pet Task that I was unable to succesfully complete last time.
I was standing in the middle of on set of stairs. To the side at the level of my face were some cats. My first thought was, "But these aren't my cats..." But then I quickly decided that I didn't care. I looked at the closest cat. There was something on its mouth. It looked like smashed cornflakes. It looked very unappealing. So I turned to the other cat. It also had the same stuff on its mouth. Their mouths looked almost sealed shut with it.
I looked for another pet. This time I saw a group of about four kittens. They were very small and very cute. I reached for one. They all kind of backed away, but I managed to get ahold of one. It was white with patches of dark brownish grey tabby. It's eyes were a dark grey. I set it down on the ledge that was eye level to my face. I told it that it could talk now. It opened its mouth and said an a small voice, "Cookie...."
I was a little confused as to what it meant--I used to have a cat named Cookie. So I asked it, "Do you want a cookie...or is that a name?" It just looked at me.
I then remembered that it was just a baby. So I made the question simpler. So I asked, "Do you want a cookie?" The tiny kitten nodded its head. I laughed a little and said to it, "But you're so little, you shouldn't be eating anything buy your mama's milk. Who's been giving you cookies?" But the kitten didn't answer.
I took off flying again. I flew outside. I was on the roof of a three story apartment building.
I remember thinking about how I had been talking about how cool it was to just fall backward off things...so I decided to do it again. As I stood at the edge about to fall, I thought, "Now am I really sure I'm dreaming. If I'm not, this will be fatal."
But I was already falling backwards. I didn't fall to the ground level, but just to a balcony on the floor below. I actually landed on a soft couch. I stood up again and was planning to fall backwards again, but I saw a pool down below. I remembered how I had wanted to do a Water Task. This wasn't the ocean, but a pool could be good practice for future water Tasks.
So I dived off the balcony and went straight in the water of the pool. I worked myself to the botton. I started to breath. It was a very strange feeling. It wasn't like I had rememberd before when I was breathing underwater just like it was air.
I could kind of feel the unpleasant feeling of water trying to come in through my nose. I had to block my nose breathing off. When I breathed through my mouth it felt like there were bubble appearing right in front of my mouth that I was able to suck in. It made a little bubbly noise as I did so. But it worked, I was able to breath. And it seemed significant to me that I would be able to breath like this indefinitely.
I looked around again to see if there was anything interesting at the bottom of the pool. I saw a guy and a dog also laying at the bottom.
I decided to try the Pet Task again with the dog. I started talking to it and asked it to talk to me. But suddenly the guy that was with the dog got mad at me. He said, " He's underwater! And you want him to talk!" --as if it would kill the dog for it to talk underwater. Of course this guy was talking underwater and it wasn't killing him.
I was trying to decide if I was going to debate this with the guy, but then I could feel myself losing the dream. Then I was awake.
Seeker that is way too easy :p The way I pop into people's dreams...sheesh.Quote:

I had my first lucid dream today (yay me:)) and I tried to make a portal.
I was in what seemed to be a white tube ( one meter in diameter) with my cousin. The tube was in a desert construction site. And a huge transformer was picking the tube up and dropping it from an high altitude repeatedly. So me and my cousin were trying to hold on to one or two papers each so they wouldn't fall out. Because then the transformer would know that we were in the tube.
And suddenly my cousin left the tube and ran for a truck under a big iron shelter (so i guess he was safe), but he left his papers with me. So I was struggling to get his papers and still hold on to the tube.
When the tube fell down this time I almost fell out, But instead I became lucid. So I stepped outside of the tube totally forgetting the transformer and my cousin. But one thing I did remember was the lucid task of the month. So I tried to make a portal into my classroom but as I waved my hand in circle everything became black except a blue/black vortex thing. Then I woke up
So I guess I failed, unless I conjured a portal into the waking world =D
Awesome lucid, Twoshadows. I hope my next one is half as cool as that. I think I'm due any night now. You're so full of LD skill it makes me sick :p
Crabman: Congratulations on your first LD! And the fact the you remembered something you wanted to do (the lucid task) is just that much more sweet. Well technically, you did summon a portal - that blue/black vortex you mentioned. But you didn't get to go through it, which is the actual task.
None the less, your first LD was very successful. Keep at it and you'll tackle that task in no time.
Twoshadows and Crabman, all I can do is echo Oneironaught's sentiments!
Twoshadows, you are a fantastic LDer and Crabman, for your first LD, your
control (no matter how brief) and your recall of the task was truely impressive.
Great job both of you! :D

Its a little late but I did my first lucid task! I summoned a vortex and ended up in an X-rated Dick Tracy movie! Heres and excerpt from my dream journal. I had been lucid for quite a while and I found this little girl after I went to Saturn and back. I then convince her that she is dreaming and we fly together.
I take on a father persona with her now and together we float up to a tree in my yard. I ask her where she wants to go. She is not sure. I look up and see a beautiful purple nebula. I say "Lets go to the star cluster nebula." She says ok. Then points to a swirl of clouds and lightning. I remember the lucid task for vortex. I tell her it is a vortex and I make it shape into a funnel. The funnel comes down but I cant fly to it. Then I tell the girl what the TV said. Suddenly we are right there. I can see the funnel from the clouds. The funnel is more like a gold colored cloth with a metal coil in side. I grab it and I put my head in. It is small and I have to wiggle around. Finally it sucks me up. I feel like I did went into orbit. I struggle to keep my eyes open. Then I feel like I am through. All I can see is a bright white light.
I close my eyes and open them. I am now in bed with a woman. The girl has become a virtual fly on the wall and is unimportant. I am in a Dick Tracy type of setting. The woman looks kind of like Betty Boop. She is wearing Dick Tracy boxers and a yellow shirt that shows her belly. She has a nice body. I hear a man say "you can keep the boxers". I look and see Warren Beatty walk away. I look at the woman and she now looks just like Maggie Gyllenhaal.
Me: Oh I get it. I went through a vortex.
Maggie: What?
Me: I'm still dreaming.
Maggie: Mmm, who isn't?
I grab her to me, make her boxers disappear and I start to have sex with her. I regain some self control at that point and pause. There was little sensation and I immediately wake up.
I did it! I completed the Advanced Lucid Task (with the portal.) It was towards the end of a lenghty lucid dream (you can read the rest in my DJ, if you really want to):
I decided to make a portal out of the mirror, so I picked up this kid and let him put a drop of water on it. (Not sure why.) I tried to get the kid to go through, but his head would just bang against the glass. So I flew through it, and suddenly I was through the mirror and in outer space! Unfortunately the dream ended.
I re-did the DV Member task, since I wanted to meet somebody in particular. The entire journal entry can be found in my DJ.
23 Bright Braid Street
"I am dreaming!" I told myself. I looked in my hands and saw my car keys. I held them both hands, and jingled them up and down. This worked really well as an anchor to the dream, much like hand-rubbing. They also looked really interesting... sort of a swirl of shiny metal as they moved around.
I had been joking with Twoshadows for awhile about going on a dream date at a malt shop, so I really wanted to conjure her up. I started calling out for her, but then I remembered someone here had recently suggested going to a house and ringing the bell to find someone.
I found a quaint little blue house with a little porch. On the house was a little wooden sign with the number "23" and a word on it. I'm not 100% sure I remember this correctly, but I think the word was "Being." I knocked twice on the door, and rang the doorbell, which was on the wrong side of the door. Someone opened the door, and I asked if Twoshadows were there. I could hear someone talking from another level down, and I knew it was her. She came walking up the stairs, putting on a denim jacket. I thought I'd have to explain who I was, but she already knew. She looked pretty much like her avatar picture, except she was wearing glasses.
I wanted to hug her, imagining that we were old friends finally reunited. The hug was a bit awkward though, and I suddenly remembered that we had never met before. I remember actually saying that it sucked I'd have to write in my journal tomorrow that it was awkward! (and here it is! :D)
We went outside together, and started walking up the street. Leaves were blowing around. I said "Did you know you live at number 23?" To which she replied "Cool!" Then we decided to look for a street sign to see what street she lived on. And there it was... the street she lived on: "Bright Braid St."
I asked if she brought her camera, and she showed it to me. I said "You HAVE to take some pictures! We have to see what happens!" We both thought the concept of taking dream pictures was very cool, and joked that we'd have to find a shop in the dream to develop them.
Twoshadows wanted to sit down, so we sat on the bumper of an old car. "This is a little chilly," she said to me. I could tell that she was hinting that since I was in control, I should do something about it. I closed my eyes, snapped my fingers, and we appeared on a warm beach, lying on the sand. This scene was not nearly as clear, and I guess the shock of the change, or my having closed my eyes was enough to jolt me out of the whole thing.
I woke up. Unfortunately, we never made it to the malt shop, but it was fun to finally dream about a specific DV member.
Loved the dialog! "You can keep the boxers." was pretty funny too!Quote:

Okay... just woke up this morning and realized I had gone through a portal!! But I wasn't lucid, aaaack! The portal was a wall made out of blue clay, and it led into another world. The more times you went through it, the more compact the clay became and the more likely you were to lose a limb going through it!
It was very cool, can't wait to try to summon this same portal in a lucid.
That's so cool. You were able to do it. That's great!Quote:

And how thoughful that you even let me have my camera in this dream! I hope we got some good pictures.Quote:

I always feel disappointed after waking up when I have taken pictres in a dream because I don't get a chance to see them. :(
Good job with the scene change. Too bad it gets fuzzy from here.Quote:

But great job on the lucid dream!!
I wanna lucid :(
I'm giving up...
