Thread: Lucid Task of the Month for September 2008

I was gonna do the tasks last night but I couldn't remember what they were! lol. I'll have to leave a note next to my bed or something.

I accomplished the basic task last night, I think. I walked on the water in a pool, but fell through at the end.

I realized I was dreaming while in the living room of my dad's house. I got that dreaming feeling, and did the nose RC which failed. I just love it when that happens! I went into my backyard since we have a pool to try the basic task of the month. I got down to the far end of the pool, and stepped on the water, I managed to successfully walk on it for about 10 steps, but I fell through and into the water as I neared the end of the pool.

Congrats completeing the task before the month started. I'm jealous.

I did both tasks last night: http://www.dreamviews.com/community/...&postcount=332

Exert:
I told him that there is no such thing as too high in a dream and floated up and grabbed some leaves. We ate them for some reason. Then I walked into the evergreens and decided that I would split myself in half. This was much harder than I though. I split my vision easily like a co-op video game, but my body was difficult.

I tried first moving one body, then the other, but even though my vision was split, my body was still one. Finally I split up and walked off in opposite directions. I could only manage to do this for a few seconds, but managed to get about thirty feet apart from myself.

I told Chris what I had done as my vision came back to my one self and I decided to go after my other self and see if I was still there. I flew around the shed, which was in the middle of being redone, but I wanted there.

Chris kept wondering what my name was, he thought it was Phil or Bill. I told him that I was Bill, and that Phil was a groundhog. (Weird, my name isn't Bill ) I flew through some weird structures of wood, kind of like bunk beds without beds.

I remembered that I also wanted to walk on water and thought about heading back to the stream, but noticed that the ground was soaked. I tried to walk on it, but kept sinking. I then flew up onto one of the wooden structures over deep water. I then jumped down and ran across the surface of the water. It was fun, but when I slowed down I sank again. I ran through the water until I woke up.

Splitting myself in half was harder than I thought.

I've never walked on water before. I want to try it barefoot, and really feel it between my toes.

Now I have to do it again to do that too, sounds cool

Wow.. that really was difficult and I'm very impressed!

I'm not sure I could pull off this task but I'm definately going to try walking on water.

I'm sure that you'll think of something Clairity, you always do

Haha, I did it this morning! But it wasn't on purpose, I didn't read the tasks until just now. Or maybe I'm psychic, and my dream powers are just that strong!

Advanced task:
I see a dark blue planet up in the sky. I remember Uranus and become lucid. I teleport to the surface of Uranus, but part of me is still on earth; I'm now in two places at the same time. On earth I get out an index card to write down the dream. On Uranus I realize that there shouldn't be a surface, and as I think this it disappears and I fall through the layers of Uranus's gaseous atmosphere. I can feel the differences in pressure as I hit each one. On earth, I'm writing with a pencil, "I realized that there shouldn't be a surface, and as soon as I thought this, it disappeared." On Uranus I have my arms up above me, my body forming a straight line. I don't fall very fast, as if I'm on a slide. On earth, my employer's trying to talk to me, distracting me. But I manage to keep thinking of Uranus and decide that I should see the center. I splash into the liquid-ice core of Uranus. Back on earth I'm talking to my employer.

At some points I was seeing more of one location or the other, but there were times when it was equally split and I saw them layered equally on one another.

Does it count?

Yeah, it counts, sounds cool

i've walked on water plenty of times in non-lucids, and it sounds pretty simple to do it while lucid. but, man the advanced task really evens it out lol. i'm going to attempt to do both at the same time by splinting in two and have one of me walk on water while the other watches me do it. basically i'm going to walk on water in first person view and in third person view at the same time.

Hehe...It's Naruto time...

That advanced one sounds much more advanced than usual

Yeah I agree lol.

I managed the Basic Task, I walked on water but it felt so weird. The texture kept on changing to the point that the water actually changed to cement. I was then stuck.
I woke up shortly after but can't make much sense of anything after I got stuck lol

Good tasks this month. Will definitely attempt the basic task if I get around to it. Wizard of Oz for November sounds like it will be awful, though.

I've only recently got back into LD's. Going to try the Basic task this month.

I like the sound of walking on water, should be one i can complete...

For the advanced one i was thinking; third person overview on yourself, spawn a few more of yourself like Mr Smith (Matrix style) . Then walk in all different directions, and spread yourself out. Would something like this count as completing the task, Ninja ^^?

I've been in multiple places at the same time before, albeit accidentally. It was interesting though, definitely worth trying again.

As for walking on water... I'm not sure I want to risk sacrificing lucidity to accomplish that. I have trouble flying or levitating, and falling in water sounds like the kind of thing that would wake me up. Hmm... maybe I'll try swimming a bit first, then surfacing on the water.

Hey, I've done both of these before, the advanced task more than once. Now I've just got to do them, while lucid, by the end of the month!

Okay, cool. I wasn't sure if you had to dream it for the task for it to count. This was really just a teleportation accident. Which I recommend by the way. This isn't the first time this has happened to me. Anyone else ever been two people in two different locations at the same time? Now that was interesting . . .

I actually tried walking on water in a dream on 8/20 . . . and fell right in. The water was gross to, full of algae. But it didn't wake me. I don't see why it would.

And this thread was started on 8/24 . . . Wow, if I believed in psychics, I'd totally think I'm psychic.

As long as you are still the person, you can't simply clone yourself and have it walk off on it's own like a bot. You have to sense what it senses and control it, if not, then it's not really you is it? It'd be a clone.

K, thanks... that makes sense !

Woh, ninja, that was fast!
I'm trying to imagine what you did but it's making my head hurt!
