Thread: Lucid Task for the Year of 2008

wow I just noticed this thread. Has anyone got even close? I'll try to get to at least one planet in my next LD. I made the mistake of not having something pre-planned last time I had a LD and it was really random and didn't last long.

this sounds so fun!

I'll surely try doing this the next time I'm Lucid dreaming! Just as soon as my dryspell ends

I've been to the Moon and to Mars, and although going to the Moon was an awesome experience, my trip to Mars was ended prematurely when I heard some voices and then felt something like a blanket being laid over the top of me which brought me right back into my body.

Someone must have thought I was a little too far away from home for my own good I guess.

The interesting thing about my visit to Mars was that I was through a lot of mist and could see some rocks that looked like they had a housing project built into it, which I dismissed as maybe just being an illusional trip that just took place in my head, that is until someone from another site showed me a link of someone else who had been to Mars, and the pictures that they gave of what they saw, which just happened to look exactly like what I had seen.

Here's an account of my trip to Mars:

My Trip To Mars - 1/6/08
As I concentrate on floating I find my dream body trying to float out of my physical body, although it appears to be stuck, as it is unable to get all of the way out.

I try every which way I can think of to get out of my body, turning first this way, then that way, but nothing works, until I imagine myself flying, after which I find myself flying up through some trees and into what seems like the twilight zone.

As I am flying through what feels like the twilight zone, I remember the task I had wanted to accomplish, that of going to Mars.

So I think about going to Mars, while at the same time giving my subconscious mind permission to take me to whatever planet it thinks would be best to go to.

Almost immediately I feel myself descending and find myself flying in a place that is both dark and foggy, making it very difficult to see anything, although I do see some buildings that look like housing projects on the side of one of the roads I am flying along.

As I am flying along I begin to hear some male voices which seem to be approaching me as they are getting louder and louder.

I relax as in the past when I have encountered these voices they usually don't seem to know I even there.

This time they seem to know I am there though, because I very shortly feel myself completely covered by something like a blanket which forces me back into my body and causes me to wake up, putting an end to a perfectly fun adventure.

Yay, iadr is on his way

Since I miscounted the number of planets I removed the part about finding intelligent life and changed it so that you only have to find life on one of the planets

As soon as I can end this stupid dryspell I want to visit Saturn first. It's so gorgeous.

Mars i can do but the rest may take some research. there are alot of scientifically correct images of the surface of these planets so if i do this one at a time it may work... but I dunno never left Earth before that i can remember, been to other worlds but never just taken off into space mabye a good old-fashioned teleport will do a better job.

Wow, this one looks fun! *anxiously awaiting my next LD*

One more question: do moons count? Because I so want to explore Io and Europa. o 3 o

I thought about that too. Yeah, you can explore the Jovian moons of Jupiter or Titan of Saturn instead of the planets themselves.

I'm actually planning to explore Io too

Can we substitute one of the planets for Pluto?

I miss Pluto...

XD

Yes, maybe I'll visit Pluto too, that's something that I've always wanted to do.

I just want to let everybody know that I didn't try this because of the fourm, but I had been on mars in my dream a while back. The world , "Planet earth" was destroyed by a huge title wave. I was in an apt complex building that was cut in half so you could see all the units, just like a doll house. BOOM! When I woke up from the title wave in my dream (waking up in a totally next chapter in my dream) ~ I was on mars, all I seen was a red atmosphere, and the stuff I was breathing was clearly not oxygen, it was a different substance, but I was alive, and could sustain life there. My vision was different than on earth, and my thought process was different as well. I felt an urge to tell everyone about this in my dream, but they where all gone. I was the only one standing on Mars, or what I believed to be Mars. The planet was visually orange red, and the atmosphere was the same color. No levitation occurred, but I just knew I was on mars. I have never had a dream like that since.

Ok, I started working on this task. I haven't gone to any other planets yet because instead of just imagining things into existence, I have been building them. It has taken a LONG time, but I just finished a suit for space travel. It looks sort of steampunk, with parts made of gold substances and specially treated wood that can withstand extreme heat and cold. The helmet has a thick glass face shield that has been coated with a liquid that , when connected to an electrical current, can block ou different wavelengths of light. I will try to post a picture soon. I still have to design a whole ship and actually start the expedition, but I just ad to share my progress. This is the first time I have taken time to build something, instead of simply making it exhist in a dream. It took me about 15-16 WILDS to complete the suit. I am looking foreward to actually completing this task!

I tried to get to mars but was cut short.

I was in a friend’s house and for some reason I reached up and wobbled my tooth, the tooth wobbled a lot and came out but I thought that a nerve was still attached, I went to show my mum and she recoiled and said it was, so I went to look in a mirror. I thought "the more I think about this the worse it will get" and I recognized it as one of the common dream cues I had read about on the forum. I fixed my tooth (just thought it right) and set about visiting Mars, which I Decided was my first destination on the LTFTY. I opened some French doors and went into a back yard, the sky was a dark blue hue of and full of stars, I took off and flew up out of the atmosphere but was disappointed with the transition of sound and color so I went down a bit and tried again, so it was more accurate I went around the planet trying to locate the brighter light of mars but started to spin out of control; I caught a glimpse of it and focused my spin on it then set out across space. On the way I noticed a slightly cubic meteoroid spinning through space and before I knew it I was following that not Mars. I knew that I was still dreaming and decided that I would investigate the meteoroid first, then go find Mars (stupid) It was covered in holes in and hollow inside like a block of cheese, as I looked inside I saw a Smartie (kind of candy) fly from one side of the cube to the other and disappear into a hole in the other side. Jumping in, I got a huge mouthful of Smarties as they erupted from a small hole. I looked out of a larger hole and there was a room full of beautiful women, one reached for my hand and I let her take it and pull me out, the room was that of a Greek palace... The story goes on a bit more, then I woke up, but basically I failed because of distraction (kind of like "The Odyssey's" Sirens ).

Wow... that sounds tough... it would be extremely tough to go to all of them in one night- while flying to each planet instead of teleporting!

Wow! This sounds hard!

Yay! Someone else completed the task. I feel like such a slacker.

I just noticed this task. God knows if I'll get this one all done by the end
of December but I'll try! I flew to the moon once but just bounced around
and didnt look for life forms. As before in the monthly tasks, I'll not read
anyones experiences until ive done all the tasks.....I dont want to be influenced.
