Thread: Task of the Month for December 2008

is it alright if i can be in the sliegh on my own or does santa have to drive/be in it?

also, i know i posted this question already but it kinda got ignored so, can the sleigh be rocket powered or does it have to be reigndeer?

Santa was not in the sleigh with me.. I cornered my house yelling "I see santas sleigh" expecting to see santas sleigh, but I seen 2 garbage cans big and long, in the shape of a sleigh. So if mine counts, I Guess Santa would not have to be in it..
I thought the Santa one was easier than the public transit (probably because i have never been on a subway or whatever)

i completed the basic task i think, but it was last week, and i wasnt lucid till the end, so i dunno if this will count but ill describe anyway.

i was in a normal dream, i somehow ended up on a bus, i was by myself, so i was bored, and when im bored i always end up doing RCs, so that habit reflected in my dreams, so i became lucid, i had no idea where i was until i smashed out into the air and i realised i was actualy about a mile away from my house.

so i did the task, but it was bad timing and non-lucid

I got into a taxi, and asked "Take me to where the action was."

I ended up in a back alley, where someone was getting mugged. I helped the guy, but I was hoping for something more fun...

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I've been lurking since May. I am having Ld's enough now to try the monthly task. It was very intimidating when I first found that people were able to do this.

However, now that I've had enough Ld's to say I am a Lucid dreamer I am ready to try.

So far I have had a few successful wilds, a lot of deld's and even a string of them one night. I've flown, and even ate food.

I have at least one Lucid a week. I'm always trying to improve and get better results.

So, count me in.

The Transit task will be cool because my dreams usually have only a few people in it...so mass tranist will be a real change.

Really jazzed about the sleigh ride.

My next post will be a completed task. I have my distorted nubby reality checked fingers crossed!

Tried WBTB, inspired by a thread I ate some chocolate and did have more vivid dreams and got lucid for just a moment.

Was walking around in the dark, felt so real, the gravity and weight of each step. I just kept moving thinking a scene would appear and after a few moments it did. I was in a parking lot I used to live near as a child. but then I lost it and woke up.

Still a minor success but nothing close to the task. I'm only writing it here because I did the WBTB trying to do the the task this month.

Lovin the badge! Thanks everyone

I'm so happy! I did the Advanced Task! Here's the dream:

I was in my room and my friend was talking to me. We were sitting on the bed in front of the window. The shining brightly through some tree's. My buddy was telling me something but wasn't really making sense. He said he came over here "this morning" to tell me something. That stood out because the sun set's in my room. I said you said this morning but it is evening. (based on the sun out my window. He said he didn't say that, I said yes you did. He said can he finish what he was saying. Then I thought the only explanation is that I'm dreaming and BAM I was lucid.

Great moment of lucidity. Sitting in front of a window with the sun shining in seems so symbolic.

So I got up went into the hall, not my house anymore, and was standing there thinking what should I do next. I was blank for a moment. Then the task of the month came to mind. Santa's Sleigh I thought! I want to ride Santa's Sleigh.

So I walked over to the balcony area and was thinking I need to get outside to find the sleigh. I could see down to the next level outside and saw Santa's Sleigh right outside! I jumped off the balcony and was going to do a slow landing. But it felt out of control, like slow fall and when I landed it was jolting. I hoped I wouldn't wake up because it was quite a realistic slam to the ground. I even hoped I didn't hurt my knee.

I didn't wake up. I went outside. So excited. But the sleigh turned out to be a large yard Christmas ornament. t was a hollow wire frame. I thought maybe I could ride this, but there was no Santa and I just knew this wouldn't due.
I was thinking It needs to be a real sleigh with Santa! There was another Sleigh ornament and I went over to check it out.

Just then I heard bells and "Ho Ho Ho" and from high above Santa's Sleigh rounded the house! I was thrilled. It didnt have Reinder but it was a big Sled.

I flew up to it and was going to get on but it was moving fast and sort of erratic. I think I yelled out can I ride please? Then he came to me like a bus would pull up beside you. His Sleigh was Black and dark green. The rails at the bottom were black. It had several rows. When he pulled up Santa passed me. He looked very odd. Sort of mechanical. His suit was blackish and he was smiling and had a beard but it looked like wires.

I was standing at about the fourth aisle. I thought about going to his seat but didn't want to miss the chance to get on. So I got on this aisle.

His sleigh took off at incredible speed. and was zooming through the air and I must have thought it felt like a roller coaster because the next thing I new it was on a track going down a hill into a loop. There were to girls sitting beside me now and one in front of os facing us. The sensation was completely like a coaster and I yelled just like I do on them in terror! LOL

After the loop the Sleigh slowed down and was approaching the loading dock like on a coaster. The girls were talking to each other and the one next to me was beautiful. I kept taking a glance at her and we would make eye contact. I thought I see how you could fall in love in a dream.

Then it started to fade. It went black and I was feeling aware of my body. I tried to rub my hands but it was way to late.

I laid still hoping to start another dream but it didn't. I was going over my lucid and must have fell back to sleep. When I woke I could remember two more non lucid dreams after this LD.

I'm so thrilled! I did the advanced task! Even if it is the last day of the month I did it. I remember reading about these task and they seemed so beyond me. But I did it!

Whew!

How cool to start the new year off with THIS! Thank you dreamviews.

The task are awesome because they give you something to reach for. I've learned many lessons and did new things this month regarding Lucid Dreaming all because I set my mind to do these task.

Thanks again and Happy New Year everyone!

nice job

Sorry, you have to be lucid to do the lucid task of the month
