Tonight I went in and typed up all my dreams since I joined this project here. I kinda doubt there's any similarities so far, but I'll be sending them to Atras in the future. Things in my life have settled, for better or for worse, so I'll be a bit more focused in dreams and during the day. And tonight I'm trying a smoothie I made of various, supposed, dream enhancers. We'll see how that helps, or if it does considering this is during the work week.

Smoothies are good

K, here goes my WILD attempt! I have been sick and had fever and couldn't sleep from 5am... Atm is 5:35pm, im gonna try to WILD during my nap, cause I'm super tired.
See your there..

I attempted a WILD, but just as I was starting to go deeper into SP, and I think I was starting to get HI, mum comes in, "DINNER"...
.....................................


Lol. I was like.... "WHAT THE FUCK MUM WHY COULDN'T YOU JUST LEAVE ME TO SLEEP!!! FUUUUUCCKKKK" In my head of course..
What I actually said was more along the lines of "Mum, couldn't you have just let me sleep?" xD

But still, I was pretty close. Oh, and I had an LD last night, I'll post it up in my DJ, and could some of you look at it and give me some idea's? Cause it was weird and I have a few questions.

Off to bed now, I'll post it up tomorrow. Good night, and, hopefully, see you all there!

Yea could you post up your results on that please? Would be nice to know.
Like, what ingredients you used, how much you made, what time you drank it, what time you went to bed, etc etc.
Thanks!

YEEEEHAAAAA My dryspell seems to has ended finally!
I had a 5 second lucid last night which would have been much longer but here is what happened in short version: I was at a lake when a huge monster attacked me with tentacles (they actually got teeth :O). I attacked it but for some reason I fell into the lake. I was like "Ohhhhhhh shit" and it bit my arm with one tentacle. It hurt so freakin much that I got lucid and was like "WTF? Normally I don't feel pain in my dreams!". It bit my other arm as well and it tried to pull me into it's mouth. At that point I was scared like hell and forced myself to wake up (The tentacles hurt as hell I didn't wanna know how the mouth would have felt )

Now I can continue with getting to the pyramid

Dryspells are falling like leafs during autumn. With this many of us having lucids it's only a matter of us getting asleep till we're all at the pyramid.

Failed a WILD attempt when getting into bed, and during WBTB... Used Jeff's free-fall method but I was lying there for hours. Had a semi-lucid DILD though, and recalled two dreams instead of one!

This is kind of interesting, I also felt pain in my dream for the first time while being attacked by monsters. The pain of the attacks didn't bother me actually but I definitely remember feeling very beat-up and exhausted in the dream afterwards. Didn't become lucid though.

I had an awesome (though kind of scary) dream about fighting dragons and stuff with a bunch of people. I'll type it up soon.

edit: All posted now.

well in my very brief lucid last night i at least thought of getting to the pyramid so thats a good start i guess

I tried to wild in a nap and go to the pyramid from there. No real success but i had awesome vivid imagery more detailed than ever. I imagined an assassin with desert clothes watching over a cliff. My subconsious added a tall mask with a facial expression, 2 very long thin swords. The whole cliff and scale where completely in place i didn't have to imagine anything. was awesome.

I'll try again in the weekend.

I want to get in on this too. The idea is great and I hope to meet all of you in the dream world.

Real Name: Brian
Physical Description: Short, around 5'5, slim, brown hair and blue eyes
Astral Description (if you know): No idea
Frequency of Ld's: Hopefully once I get back into the groove of things at least once a week.
Timezone: EST

Welcome to the IOSDP, Brian! Hoping to see you sometime over the weekend!

Yay, hoping to see you, Puffin and everyone else as well. I'm sorry if this is really late, but I only read through half of the thread (there is no way I am reading 35 pages, i'm suprised I read 20) and I heard you guys talking about having epic fights and battles. I was wondering if this was still relevant or if I am late to the party. I'm known to have some dangerous fireballs just come flying out of my hands

We haven't really set up any big fight or anything yet. The official shared dreaming attempts are over weekends, but there's a bunch of people who are attempting to dream share on the weekdays, in their own groups and whatnot. I tried over a weekday last week with one possible success, but right now I'm working on my own dream goals until the weekend. I'd love to see how I stack up against another DV member this Saturday or Sunday, though! n_n

My friend and I had a break through, well for him at least. Lol. He says he and I were in a desert in Mexico looking for the pyramid. (I have been keeping him informed about our efforts on here.) he's been getting back into Lucid Dreaming more and he believes he and I shared a dream last night. Unfortunately I couldn't recall my dreams from last night so I couldn't confirm if it was in fact a shared experience. He's going to get me the details and I'll post them on my personal DJ. Look for it soon!

Had a fairly lousy sleep again, fell asleep at like 3:30, but at least I got a lot of long, vivid dreams (thank god I can sleep however long I want in the summer xD).

Dreams mainly consisted of:

- trying to take the right bus to get to a waterpark
- at a ranch, carrying and divvying hay
- being in a black dress and hat while picking out fabric scraps; a rainbow of scraps was attached to my hat
- meeting some new tenants in my apartment building

Hmm. would that be a challenge Puffin! If it was I accept and if anyone else wants to duel just smack me in the head with something and Ill surely accept your request. Hehe

very odd dreams last night, I used one of my herbal cocktails but think I over did the wormwood (it IS a poison afterall eep!). Everything was very 'dark' and it was hard to see. Usually I take a small mix of mugwort and wormwood, ground up together (mostly mugwort) and poked into and empty capsule (I buy painkillers and empty out the contents so I an use the capsule). It's a risky mix that I only try now and then, it can make you very ill (it can cause 'cramps' in women, the loss of a child in the womb and/or serious gastric distress). I wouldn't recommend it to anyone that doesn't research it properly themselves first. Don't want people trying it and then going "Arg!" *choke choke thud death* or "Holy Moses! my internal organs and vital fluids are attempting to leave my body via all my bodily orifices!" or "What do you mean? loss of child in the....AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! *splat*....oh...." None of that please folks, this is your official "skull and cross bones warning".
Not even worth putting last night in the DJ.

Welcome aboard FireDevil! I don't think you can ever be late to our project here. Basic thing is on weekends we attempt to meet at Chichen Itza. That's about it...

And, yes, smoothies are good. If you make them right... I put up my "recipe" on my dream journal, if you'd like to read it (Nightspy or anyone else). It was a bad attempt... I made notes though! I'll do better next time.

As well, something I did not mention but attempted involving our project. I tried using a Norse Rune to pull people to me in one of my lucid dreams on the night of the 13th. The name (sound) is -ing (Thing), and it looks like a red 4 equal-sided diamond. Or a rotated square, depending on how your brain works. I was planning on using it again, yet I think the rune may not be applicable in this situation... But oh well. I'm just going through and updating my own journal and things here up to this moment. I've been slacking a bit on communication here... Working on it.

EDIT: Atras, looking at the Dream Journal interface, I think you can make atras2 a group journal on your own. Under DJ Settings -> Manage Groups, you can add members to your journal. Does this do what it sounds like, or am I not getting the point?

Awesome your right!

*PICKS UP MEGAPHONE*
ANNOUNCEMENT. Apparently I can make the dream journal on atras2 a group dream journal. What this means is the people I allow, will be able to post directly to this dream journal without me having to do it for them. If you would like to become part of this dream journal please pm with your request. Here are some rules to make sure that the dream journal stays organized:

1. Only post dreams on the dates of the shared dreaming attempts. Please do not post your dreams you have on non-attempt days unless they have to do with Chichen-Itza. On the attempt days please post all of your dreams.
2. Title the entry like this: # Shared Dreaming Attempt-(name's) Dream
For example: 8th Shared Dreaming Attempt-Atras's Dream
3. On the first line in the place where you write your dream please put this: (Name's Dream) in bold and point 5 font and any color you want. If you have any confusion with this, just look at the entries I have put in for an example of how to head it.
4. Do not post random things that aren't related. If you do this I will not allow you to post to the dream journal.

Thanks.

Yay, awesome!

Will you still post ours if we just PM them to you...I don't mind being one of those to post dreams just that I don't want to fall behind and not be able to post my dream if I am caught up doing something, or the "no internet at home" becomes an issue

Yeah I'll still post them. It's just that I can be busy sometimes so if people are able to post their entries themselves it would make it easier so I'm gonna go ahead and give you access, and you can still send them to me but if you see that I havent posted them because I'm busy, then you can post them yourself.

Sweet

Just a question, when you say the #, do you mean the number of your own attempts or the number of the whole group's attempt?

I would assume you mean the whole group, but then you will have to announce what number it is before the attempt I suppose.
