Thread: Lucid Task for the Year of 2008

You get a year long membership in the Task of the Month Club and an sexy orange name

Since I'm just a n00b, I'm a bit confused. How do you prove that you did it? Or is it just by merit?

One time (a year ago, maybe?) I had a dream that I went to "hell" and then shot up into space. I was floating way above the earth for a little bit and saw the moon. I think it was an astral projection (felt like one), or at least had AP vibrations. When I fell back to earth, I could feel the breeze, and I actually felt that tight grip you get in your chest when you fall. I don't think that really counts, but it was pretty cool. :]

You just gotta write it up here, I'll take your words for it.

Had a lucid dream this morning where I was flying and then said aloud that I wanted to go to Mercury, I started flying faster and farther and when I landed on Mercury, there was a bakery, with hot bread and muffins being baked, I started stuffing bread and muffins in my mouth and it was very good. The baker looked human, he was an older man with short grey hair and a mustashe. I then woke up.

A bakery on Mercury

i know im a bit late, im relatively new to this site.

i know that pluto isnt classed officialy as a planet, but i do, so i just need to be sure, is pluto included in this thing or what? im just curious, im not actually doing it, because im too late.

Well, directly from the first post:

Because most of us were alive when Pluto was considered a planet, you may substitute one of these planets for Pluto.

i hate my dreams...that will not let me get to space...that means no lucid taks of the year for me....

i will keep on trying to get to space though

oh, thanks i didnt notice that. im a dosy buger.

lol it happens, and recalling what someone said, looking at pictures of space should help to travel there.

Lucid Task Of The Year - (Mercury - 11/29/08)I find myself in the twilight area between sleep and wake again, so concentrate on the lucid task of flying to Mercury.* As I concentrate on flying to Mercury I am suddenly walking around the Kennedy Space Center, where I see several rockets, one of which says Mercury on it.* Assuming that this rocket is going to Mercury, I merge myself with this rocket.* I feel a rumbling below me as the rocket takes off, and then feel like I am in something like a twilight zone or a void, drifting aimlessly through space.* After drifting through space for a while I decide that maybe it is time for me to help out with this, so begin concentrating on going to Mercury again.* After passing a couple of planets to the side, I feel myself landing on what appears to be Mercury.* It is somewhat difficult to see outside because there is this fog or vapor everywhere.* I see what looks like people or else some kind of creatures walking around with what looks like space suits on, but it is much to cloudy to see what they are doing.* They seem to be taking a journey somewhere as there is a large group of them walking along very slowly together. Although I remember seeing some other things in the distance I have forgotten what they were when I wake up.</p>

Lucid Task Of The Year (Venus - 12/3/08) As I concentrate on the lucid task of going to Venus, a large jet airplane appears in front of me sitting horizontal on the ground. A door opens and stairway comes down that I climb up and go inside. Once inside, I sit down in this large, relaxing, leather chair, where a bunch of seat belts are automatically put on me to hold me in the seat. There appear to be at least 10 of them. The jet takes off down this runway, and after getting up enough speed starts heading what seems to be straight up in the air. I am now floating around in space viewing various planets out my window as I pass them. I feel the plane descending, although it seems to stop a ways above the ground where it hovers in mid air. When I look out my window, all I see is mist and vapors. The vapors then part and I see what looks like a giant moon, which appears to be right next to the planet I am on. Although I am thinking that this was another planet at the time, I realize later that this was probably Venus that I was looking at.

Lucid Task Of The Year (Jupiter - 12/18/08) I find myself flying along some beautiful terrain enjoying the scenery below. I am enjoying the view of mountains and trees while at the same time enjoying the speed and freedom of flying. After some time, I land and am at some sort of resort where I am in the upstairs bedroom, while the wife is in the downstairs bedroom. While I am laying down in bed enjoying being lucid, the wife is making all kinds of noise in her room doing something. The noise coming from the wife's room begins to annoy me so I get up and go looking for a quieter place to meditate. When I leave my room, the wife is right behind me, going everywhere that I go, asking me questions. I ignore her and walk around like a zombie, as I am wanting her to leave me alone. She continues following me around asking me questions though, which I continue to ignore. I go into this one room that is a large closet thinking that she will leave me alone in here, but she follows me in. I sit down in this chair and begin to meditate, but this giant furnace comes on that has some kind of rubber thing on it that hits me every time it comes around. It is also making a lot of noise.I leave the closet, and head outside with the wife still following me asking me questions. I come to an area that is like a beach along this waterfront, only it is all grass. I notice that the ground is all wet as it seems to have rained earlier. I find a lawn chair and lay down on it, which because of the ground being so wet, its legs sink all the way down into the ground. So I am laying right on top of the ground on this lawn chair. At least it is comfortable. There are a bunch of people partying out here who are playing music though, and their music begins to distract me. I decide to leave this place so stand up and look up into the sky. It is a beautiful night outside and the moon and many stars are visible. I remember the lucid task of going to the various planets, so use my rhyme to remember which one I want to visit next. I decide to go to Jupiter, so extend my arms and begin flying straight up into the sky. The annoying noise now ceases, and I am enjoying the silence of the void I am now in. I remain in this void for what seems like 5 or 10 minutes, after which I find myself inside this building with some guy who is showing me around. He has this long, lanky looking animal that looks similar to a tiger, that he warns me to stay away from because it bites. I tell him not to worry because nothing can hurt me since I am in my dream body. The animal grabs a hold of my right arm, and I am carrying it around while it continues hanging from my arm. I tell the guy &quot;See I told you it couldn't hurt me&quot;. After he drops off, it seems like a giant snake bites me, and I also carry it around on my arm for a while before putting it down. I am still walking around like a zombie while in this place in order to to remain in my trance and stay lucid. As I seem to be stuck in this place, I decide I would like to go back to earth. A group of people who are now in the room with me begin giving me advice on how to get back to earth. They tell me that all I need to do is to concentrate on earth, and that I will go back there. After listening to their advice, I concentrate on going back to earth, and then feel myself entering my body.

Lucid Task Of The Year (Saturn - 12/26/08) I have just come out of someplace like a hardware store with the wife, and have put some things in the back seat of the car when I change my mind and decide to put them in the trunk. When I open the trunk though it already has several bags of groceries in it. As I have no recall of having been to the grocery store this day, I am thinking that I must have forgotten and left them in there the last time I went to the grocery store. I go ahead and put the other things in the trunk and then decide to have a little fun. I levitate our car into the air, which makes the wife a little cranky as she is unable to get into the car now. So I set the car back down and we climb inside. Once inside our car turns in what seems to be a giant sled, only then takes on the appearance of a giant bird that is wearing long skis. The bird begins skiing through the parking lot and onto the main road where it is taking us home. I decide at this time that I would like for this giant bird to take us to Saturn, so begin concentrating on having this bird take us to Saturn. The bird seems to have a mind of its own though as it just keeps skiing down the street taking us home. As I continue concentrating on going to Saturn, the bird begins slowly turning into a space ship. It is finally a space ship. A set of controls appears before me with a a steering wheel. On the controls are these buttons on which the various planets are listed. I push on the button that says Saturn and we begin blasting off into outer space. After a while I look out a window and am able to see the Earth below us and am able to see Saturn with its nice ring to the side of us. We then seem to have landed, as we are standing outside looking at what appears to be a concrete trailer that is in the ground, and which has several concrete steps that go up to its front door. We walk up the steps and and go inside where we see a bunch of people who look like scientists working on different things. The atmosphere here seems to be so dangerous that no one can exist unless they are inside this trailer, with us only having been able to exist since we were in our spirit forms. A guy wearing something like a space suit finally walks up to us, greets us, and begins showing us around. He shows us these large windows that we can look out and see things. Outside this one window, he shows us how they grow their own vegetation and food in this area, while outside another window he shows us where they are raising some small animals. Through another window, we see what looks like the sun, as they appear to have some kind of equipment that captures energy from the sun that they then use to run their machinery with. I see this giant wheel that appears to be powered by water in this other area. We go down to another level where I see that this place is much larger than I had originally thought it was. I see this really friendly looking Chinese fellow down here who has a nice smile on his face. As it seems like it is time for us to leave now, we say goodbye to everyone. Everyone is really friendly toward us. We get into our spaceship and blast off. Within a short time we can see the Earth below us again, and then begin to feel the gravitational pull of the Earth pulling us toward it. Next thing I know we are back in our house floating around in our living room.

Lucid Task Of The Year (Uranus - 12/26/08) I am climbing up this ladder, higher and higer, when a space ship suddenly appears before me, and the ladder I am climbing goes up into the space ship. I climb up the ladder and enter the space ship with the wife. I am thinking that I would like to go to Uranus, and when I look outside it says Uranus on our space ship. The pressure builds and our rocket takes off into space. After a while we are in outer space where we pass 2 or 3 other planets. I then see this planet that looks to be a greenish lava color that appears to be really hot. We are floating just outside of this planet, as this seems to be as close as we can get to it. As we float around the planet, the other side of it is more of a blueish color.

Lucid Task Of The Year (Neptune - 12/26/08) I am thinking I would like to visit Neptune, and as I begin to concentrate on Neptune, a large greenish electrical looking type of thing appears in front of us. As this appears to be some sort of station that is supposed to take us to Neptune, we board the station. Once inside the station, it turns into a really modern spaceship, something along the lines of a Star Ship Enterprise. There are these large bubble type of windows everywhere where we can look out and see the sky. This spaceship almost seems like a giant helicopter because of all the windows in it. I sense that we are moving quite fast, after which we appear to land on Neptune. These white creatures that look similar to the Michelin Tire mascot , only appear to be roaches with fangs, show up and secure the ship to keep it from floating away. They hook up some sort of transportation chamber to the ship which we walk through this long ramp in order to get to where we are supposed to go. There are these human looking figures dressed in green uniforms standing there to greet us. A woman is in charge of our welcoming committee. Upon closer inspection I can tell that these figures who at first appeared to be humans are actually roach like characters with fangs. They take us into this room that appears to be an observation room, and where I sense that people from outside of the room are observing us. I begin to feel like a specimen in a cage as they observe us. I begin to sense a long history behind this place, as I begin to see pictures of their past civilizations. These creatures who now have roach like appearances, were once humans just like we are, who due to the environment on their planet were forced to evolve into these roach like creatures. They seem to be done observing us now, so they allow us to leave and go back to our spaceship. I am glad to be out of this place.

Lucid Task Of The Year (Pluto - 12/26/08) From the large spaceship we board this small jet that is going to take us to Pluto. When I look outside of our jet it says Pluto on it. On the way to Pluto, we first pass an asteroid, floating aimless around in space. After observing the asteroid for a while, we continue our journey to Pluto. We finally see Pluto in the distance. Although much smaller than the other planets we visited, Pluto has all kinds of buildings and other infrastructure on it. An Arab looking fellow with a turban on his head comes on this monitor in our spaceship and welcomes us to Pluto. Pluto appears to have cities all over it. We are only able to get so close to Pluto, because something like a force field is keeping us from getting any closer. So we just float around the outside of the planet and observe its infrastructure. A large train like vehicle appears in front of us which I am thinking is used to take people on tours of their planet. We find the train station and board this train, expecting to be given a tour of Pluto. Several other people join us on the train, mostly older women, all who are wearing scarves. I have a feeling that these women live here and that this is their primary mode of transportation. There are also a couple of older men on the train who appear to be Chinese, and are wearing straw hats, in addition to some small kids who appear to be Chinese, who are playing. I see a lot of industrial type of equipment during our tour sitting out in these fields, which equipment looks a lot like farm equipment, except that is is long and flat with no wheels on it. The people who are with us start getting nervous as our presence seems to be causing some kind of green powder to start forming. We decide it is time for us to leave so head back to our spaceship and take off, once again landing back in our living room.

This is about as close of a picture as I can find as to what the creatures on Neptune looked like, except they were more white than this. http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/5061163

Sun - Visiting - 7/5/08 Once again I sense the same spirit come and lay over the top of me which brings me back into my body, only this time I also sense a couple of small animals like cats wrestling around on my bed. I then start hearing voices, although they are distant jumbled voices, not at all scary. As I ignore the spirit and the cats, and concentrate on floating out of my body, I find myself flying up toward the sun. When I arrive at the sun I find myself inside of a place where there a bunch of people like scientists who are observing the sun. They are observing the sun from inside this dark, cave like place, to keep from being burned by the sun. I am taken through this place where they show me all kinds of neat things. They have various auditoriums where they hold lectures about various things about the sun. Although it is dark in this place, there are places that I am able to look out and see the sun, although the windows are shielded to keep the sun from being too bright.
(Here's one for good measure. I know this one is not on the list, and it was really unplanned that I went here, but here it is anyway.)

Wow, nice job.

I got the task for 2009 all figured out

Thanks ninja
That was one of the most exciting evenings I've ever had. Look forward to starting on the tasks for 2009.

Looking forward to it. Is it going to be more complicated (require more separate dreams) as this one, because we only had 6 months for this one and we'll have the full 12 for the next?

It's actually only going to require 7 dreams to complete. I was hoping that more people would be able to finish it that way.
