Lucid Dream

I was walking down the street in my friend's neighborhood, it as night at around 11pm as I remember looking at my phone for the time. As I was walking back to my friend's house there was an old man walking into his house and he yelled out to me, something like “Hi, hope you have a nice day.”. I turn around and shout back, “Thanks, you too, and sweet dreams.”, and at this point I think I became somewhat more aware of the dream once I said that but it did not make me lucid at this point. As I turn around and continue walking, like I said before I was more aware of my surroundings, I noticed what a beautiful night it really was. All the houses in the distance were shrouded by a light foggy mist with a really blue color, and I remember looking in the sky, it was a darker blue but the stars were out and plentiful. I love admiring the stars so I kept my eyes on the sky as I kept walking, and then something happened which caused me to become lucid, the stars started forming constellation lines between them. I could not make out any of the constellations but there were plenty of lines connecting the stars and I was so not-normal that I knew it had to be a dream. I did not even RC, I was convinced at this point and looking at the sky I wanted to fly, so I jumped way up into the air. A part of me was like “why did you do that!” because the last couple times I tried to do something like flying right of the bat the dream would end, but the other part of me was just staying calm and enjoying it and the dream did not end up ending right here . I wasn't actually flying, I just jumped around 100ft into the air and did a little flip at the top before starting to fall back to the ground, this happens to me a lot. So, as I reached the ground, I don't know what possessed me, but I just lifted my hands up and wanted to make and explosion go off in the distance, which it did. About 3 explosions go off, and I remember being amazed at the lighting on all the houses and even myself, but then the explosions jut disappeared once I stopped paying full attention to them. I still really wanted to fly, not just jump high but actually fly. Realizing that I have had good control in the dream so far, I set out to try it again, I jumped way up into the air with my mind focused on not stopping. This is where the dream got interesting, I was flying alright, but really fast and before I knew it I was skyrocketing out off the Earth's atmosphere into space. I just went with it as I kept going and going, it was almost like I was on a ride, I was just sitting back admiring the view of flying through space. I remember looking back and there was this huge red open portal thing behind Earth, I did not pay much attention to it. At first, there was a lot of colors everywhere, but after awhile everything started getting blacker and blacker with nothing to see. Well, that went on up until I noticed I was approaching something, it was the red portal again, but it was in-front of me. I was not stopping so I flew right through it and it took me back to where I started, right outside of Earth where the portal was to start with. I was confused at the time and something was telling me that I was in a parallel universe where time went backwards and I even had like a vision of some people walking backwards and everything. I can't remember exactly how it ended, but the rest of the dream is unclear to me.

LD

I. I do not remember what I was doing before this, but I find myself walking through a hall when I did a RC which got me thinking about dreaming, the RC worked and I knew it was a dream from my DS. The school was laid out different than the real one, but I knew where I was going because I suddenly remembered it from previous dreams (or that I thought I did and my mind was making the right path for me). I walked into the library/computer room and my old english class was there, the same teacher was there and and I looked around and most of the people I recognized was from the class. My teacher called to me, so I walked over to her and she started telling me something, it was just about a paper or something, so I was not paying attention since it was a dream. I started to leave, thinking of going outside, and that is when everything just went black. I wasn't awake, I was still sleeping, but it was like I fell out of the dream and everything was black. Maybe I was in SP and just couldn't move, but I tried going into a new dream, and maybe I did because that is all I remember of it.

Lucid Dream

Night 44

I had a short LD that ended that I chained into a longer LD, it was too bad that it was one of my early dreams because I do not remember most of the conversations even though I remember them being interesting.

I. I was in my kitchen with a friend of mine, I remember the phone ringing and I went to go answer it, and I still can't believe it but I looked at the ID and it said "You are lucid.". I was like "what?" and I was like "this is a dream?" and I did a RC and it worked. I turned around and my friend was gone and there were like 2 women there now. I remember I was trying to stabilize the dream because I was more excited than usual, and I could feel the dream fading. As I was trying to stabilize, one of the women walked next to me and started talking to me, she said "So you want to stay here?". She then said something else to me, it was only one word but it was really meaningful at the time, I think it started with a P but I can't remember. As soon as she said it the dream ended.

II. So, I woke up when I really wanted to stay, so I was thinking about everything about the dream and the next thing you know I was back. I was standing in the same exact spot and the woman was talking to me again, but I was just stabilizing the dream so I wouldn't wake up again. I was more calm and relaxed so the dream didn't start to fade. I was just curious as to who this woman was, so I was just listening to what she were saying, and I cannot remember the conversation, but I started walking with her to my living room. We sat down and I still can not remember what we were talking about, grr. We then walked up to my parents room to their sink, there was someone there and he started shaving me face lol. She was still behind me talking to me, I wish I could remember just a fraction of what she was saying but I do not remember any of it. I remember looking in the mirror, it looked like I was dizzy and like I was about to collapse, but I was standing still, then I noticed the woman reflection and she had real distinct features. I do not recognize her from my real life, but she had dark brown hair just like mine, small like 5'4, brown eyes, and a large smile. We were laughing during our conversation, and when I was done with the shaving we walked to the door towards some other people and started talking with them. The dream ends around here. When I woke up I was debating getting up and writing down the dream so I would remember what she was telling me, but I decided to try to keep on chaining, which I regret now lol .

Night 35

I had a pretty lengthy LD this morning, some parts I can not remember, but I remember most of it.

I. I was at my grandfathers house doing something, and I went to leave, when I walked out the door there were like 10 dogs on his deck. Strange, but I remember going and playing with some of them. I woke up and tried to DEILD. It worked and I was back in the dream in my grandfathers house, but there were other people there that I did not recognize, I was not lucid instantly, but I was thinking about dreaming and next thing I know I was doing a RC and it worked. I remember I tried to float, it kinda worked for a little and I fell back down. I was wearing a sweatshirt, so I took it off and the people where saying things to me, I do not remember exactly what though. So I walked out the front door and to the end of the driveway where there was this tree, I remember the dream was close to fading, and I fell down to my knees and started touching the ground while telling the dream to stabilize, it worked. I almost fell back into a ND when I started walking down the street, I was like "wait, is this an actual dream?" and I did another RC, and it worked again. There was no one around, so I thought I would try to summon once again, I tried the methods that I read about and still I could not get it to work. I remember I was trying as I walked down to a store down the road, and I was like "Alright, this is ridiculous, I am going to get this to work." as I yelled really loud to summon. I said to summon one of the reoccurring DC's in my nightmares, I wanted to confront him. After doing this the dream got really black, it was not fading it was just getting really dark, and a deep voice started talking to me. I knew this was a dream, but I was actually getting scared. I was pleading telling the dream to stop getting dark, it worked, but the voice was angry at me. He started to say things like this, "That does it, you have gone to far this time! Do you really believe you can just do anything you want in here? It does not work that way!". I was asking him what I did wrong and other things, but I wish I remembers all of his replies. I remember just agreeing with him, and then he calmed down and he started telling to do things, and I remember doing them. The dream turned into a hotel room with two beds, and it had a blue suit case in between both of them. The voice was telling me to jump to the suitcase onto the other bed, I was trying but the ceiling was not high enough, so I put my hands on the ceiling and pushed it up higher. This is where the dream ends, it was turning into a FLD at the end there I am sure, I was just doing what the voice told me to do.

Normal Dream

Night 34


I. This dream was strange. I was at my grandfathers house with my family, I forgot what exactly we were doing but I was outside on his deck and I was like seeing things. This is hard to explain, like I would get a extreme pain in my body and my vision would go black and I would see this white explosion. The pain was so real, I can not explain it, I never experienced that before.

II. I was in my basement playing Perfect Dark, I remember my brother and some of his friends were over playing basketball. I went to see them and they were laying on the ground tired, I started talking to them but do not remember what it was about.

edit: I actually remembered another short one after running some errands just now.

III. I was at my friends house talking with his sister, she was telling me she had to go to work soon at a restaurant called "SpongeBob" lol. That is all I remember, but today I passed Big Boy's and they had a sign saying it was Sponge Bob day, hmm what a coincidence.


I had some other ones that I forgot since I woke up.

Normal Dream
Lucid Dream

Night 22

This Lucid Dream was the best one I had yet, and one of the most amazing dreams I have ever had, it was really fun . I did not reread them to make fixes so if I messed up some spelling or wording, I'm sorry .

I. I was at my grandfathers house, in his driveway next to his porch, I think my mom was showing someone the house who was interested in buying it. I remember seeing big long works of art like hung up on the railings, they were huge wooden carvings which theme was Christianity. I remember seeing Jesus Christ carved in holding his hands up in a cupping motion holding a star. I am not a christian, but my grandfather was a very peaceful one. I remember my mom walked past me and said “God is merciful. He does forgive you for you sins.” directly to me, and then I woke up.

II. I am taking part in a civil war or something, it was taking place around my house, it was red vs blue just like a video game, but it was real. It wasn't like a modern war, we had old guns that each shot needed to be loaded. I remember walking with a group of men, we were on the blue side, and we come across a small group of red men, we were like 20 feet apart when both of the groups line up in a line. This was a very very scary feeling, being on the front line ready to engage the enemy knowing you might actually die in a matter of moments. It felt so real, I was so scared as both of our captains were yelling "Positions!" i was on the front line and we lay to the ground, "Aim!" my heart was pounding, in a matter of seconds I could be dead, "Fire!". The next thing you hear are gunshots from both sides, I was still alive, but I was frantically trying to grab a bullet out of my pocket to lead my next shot, I get it in and shoot, I see people people falling to the ground with gunshot wounds. I could not get my gun loaded for a third time, so I put my head down and closed my eyes and bullets were flying past me, I just sat there trying to figure out if I was dead or alive. I did not know if I was just so scared I couldn't open my eyes, or I was dead and everything was just black. I have been into situations like this before, and just like those times my dream rewinds to a part at which I am safe, this time I am looking out a my window and see my brother get shot and killed. I remember crying with a friend of mine, I put down my gun and walk out to the other armies captain, I just tell him straight up that I don't want any trouble i just want to ask if I can get my brothers body and bury it myself. He said something like "You have guts coming over here, but yeah, I will allow you to get your brothers body.". I thank him and I noticed that they already buried all of the fallen soldiers, so I am looking around trying to find where they buried him. I could not find him and went back to my side where it was being taken over, so me and my friend just decide it is time to run, we run and run while explosions are happening. The dream ends right around here.

III. I am going to separate this one into parts because it will be easier for me writing it I feel. It is a really long read .

-I am in my middle school basketball court with my class, we were all shooting hoops when my arm was really weak, I could not throw the ball at all. I was really frustrated, but the class ends and while we are walking away I am just thinking “this is crazy, almost like a dream”, at this point I was like “wait, oh wow, this is a dream!” as I say looking around. My dream wasn't fading, but it wasn't as vivid as it could be, so I yell “Increase awareness! Increase lucidity!” and it actually worked a little! At this point I am excited as I never really had a good lucid dream at school, they have usually been taking place in my house, so this was a good change. I had a lot of confidence so I looked up to the basketball rim and raised my arm up and started levitating towards it, I slammed the ball in the net, I never really tried to fly or levitate yet in a dream so it was great when it worked first time. I look at my classmates to see their reaction to this, they noticed by didn't really care that I was levitating lol.

- So after I have just became lucid, I just wanted to explore this world, so I walk out and I am in my middle school entrance, and there are huge windows to the outside world, it was a bright sunny day out which kinda surprised me, I thought it was going to be night like most of my dreams. A part of me wanted to go out and walk around outside, but I decided to stay and walk around the school. So I start walking down the hall and I was now with someone I knew from school, S, so we are talking about something (can't remember) when we get to a class room, she was wanting to play like some sort of hockey game and we sit down and she turns into this strange tv/robot lol, it was a good thing because at this point I think I was falling back into a ND, but after that happened I sat up and continued to explore remembering it was a dream. When I left the class, it felt like I was in a maze, there were dozens of doors, and I could not find the way out, it was like a school/hospital because there was a middle desk with a nurse/teacher sitting behind it. I go to open a door, I think it was an exit, and she says something to me to help me, I forgot what it was, but I was like “oh yeah, thanks!” as my subconscious just helped me again retain lucidity.

- So I walk back out into the hall, and it was like a school merged with a mall now, there were a lot of people just walking around and going about their business. I walk to this entrance to what looked like a huge restaurant, the lady at the front gave me this flyer that was purple and white, I had a very hard time reading it as the words were changing, at first it said something about Taco Bell, but then they changes to something else. So then I just left and continued on, I walk out into the hall where a friend of mince came up to me and I knew right there that he wants to help me and he wasn't an ordinary DC. We were talking when I ask
“Do you think you could come back and help me become lucid in future dreams?”
He looked at me and said “Umm, sure, we are all just an effect anyway.”
I wanted to make sure he understood what I said so I was like “So you can?”.
He replied “Yeah, but there are some who still do not trust you, but I do not see any problem with it, just don't hurt anyone or do anything stupid”
At this point I was like hmm, some people don't trust me? But I remember saying thanks and continuing on with him.

- This part is crazy, but kind of hilarious, so as we were walking we get into this huge open areas, kind of like a mall cafeteria and Morgan Freeman comes up to me. All of these people who have came up to me have been helping me, he starts talking about the dream and our current location, it was like so strange, and he also said how some people here still did not trust me. So we are talking and then he was like, “Watch out, he comes Santa Claus.” I was like “What?” and I turn and look and here is some long bearded man dressed up like Santa coming right at us, he grabs some dude right beside us and I was thinking this was a dream so I raised my hand and made gun noises hoping a gun would appear in my hand, but it did not work. That is when Morgan Freeman pulls my arm down and says that I did it wrong, that if I wanted to do that I needed picture what happens before it actually happens. I thanked him and was like, “oh, alright.”, and I remember just leaving that area right after as I really didn't want to get into all of this craziness, so I walked off to go explore. I was back at my middle school and it felt like I was trapped there, I found myself at the start of the dream where I was outside of the gym, so I turn and walk through the school, but I found myself at the gym entrance once again, I was like stop trolling me dream lol.

-So I walk out into the hall again where I see a ton of people just sitting around, I remember pointing at each one I recognized from RL, and was saying “I know you, I know you, I know you...” to each one. There was one person who replied and said “I know you too.”, and I continue to do this and I walk into a room, and it was actually my living room now, I recognize someone I knew from school, and looks to another DC and says “I do not trust this guy.” I was tired of hearing how people did not trust me so I look at him and say “Alright, why do you not trust me then?”
He said something like, “Because you are now knowledgeable on how to do this.” I knew he was referring to Lucid Dreaming.
I reply kind of laughing “Wait, so you don't trust me because I now know how to come here.” or something like that.
It looks like he doesn't know just what to say, and he said something like “Well.. Kinda.”

-Alright, now at this point I felt like the dream was going to end soon since it felt like I was in there forever, so I realized I was back at my house I wanted to do one more thing, walk through the closet mirror in my room . I walk out to the bottom of my stairs and I was like, I should fly up the stairs so I tried to fly like before, but it did not work this time around , so I just walked up the stairs. I seen my cat on the ground and I walked right past her to my room. I get in front of my mirror and look at my reflection, I have heard you can look really strange and I did, my face was like changing shapes and my body was twitching really fast. I then try to stick my hand through the mirror but it did not work, so I put my face up to the mirror and it still did not work, I was upset it was not working so I decided to try to punch and shatter the mirror to see what would happen. I hit the mirror really hard twice and it would not break, so I shoved my face back into it and I actually went through! It felt cold like a liquid, and it was so strange, everything was black and white and the landscape was of myself, like my nose and my cheek were like mountains. That is when I realized I was in SP in my bed and my eye was open looking down at my face, I could not move and everything was still in black and white. I wanted to get out of SP so I forced myself up and it worked, I got out of my bed excited at the dream I just had and I stood up and did a RC and realized that this was a FA. As soon as I realized it was a FA, I woke up in my real bed.


I am still shocked at how long that LD was, I hope I continue to have LD's every other day!

Lucid Dream
False Awakening

Night 19

Yay, I had a great Lucid Dream this morning! I had ND's last night also, but I forgot them , if I remember them later I will update my post.

I. I had a FA where I got up and got on my computer, strangely it was night time and I did a RC and I realized it was indeed a FA. I was on my PC and I fell through the floor, if anyone has ever played counter-strike, when you are spectating and you can go out of the map, it looked exactly like that. I woke up and I was laying in bed, I am not sure if I was actually awake or still sleeping, I might of been in SP because I could not move and the colors I usually see when I close my eyes were a lot more wild. Then bam, I fell back into the dream where I was at my PC again, and did another RC to confirm that I was indeed dreaming. So far all of my FA's fade once I become lucid, so I was just trying to stabilize my dream, I rubbed my hands together and it worked. I tried to stand up from my chair, but the wheels were not moving and I kind of tripped over it, I thought I was going to wake up as that happened but I didn't! It is dark, it is defiantly night time, and I walk out of my room into the hall where I see one of my cats laying on the ground . As I got closer she got up and ran right into my room, knowing it was a dream I was trying to see if I could talk to her, but she ran right past me and climbed up to the highest shelf in my room (she has never climbed up there in RL). I just ignored it and walked out further into the hall, I was thinking I was just going to explore but I wanted to try summoning again now that I read tutorials on how, it did not work . I tried holding my hand out behind me and tried to picture the person grabbing it, but got nothing, I then tried to picture them in my room and when I walked in I got nothing again. I gave up as I didn't want to spend my entire time trying, so I walked into my parents room where there were 3 women on their bed, they looked like sisters, and 1-2 men. The women all had dark brown/black hair, similar faces, black top/white skirts, and they were all staring at me as I entered the room. I remember the feeling of * maybe I should not be here* but I continued in anyways. The first woman who was sitting/laying on-top of one of the men looked at me and said something like "look at him, he has emotion." while motioning to the man she was sitting on. I look at the man and he is just blankly staring at me like a zombie, I was confused as he had absolute no emotion. I walked to the front of the bed so I would be standing in front of them all, I remember asking them if I could talk with them, but as soon as I did the dream started to fade. As the dream is fading, one of them says "Sure, but remember to try spinning around." and another one said "Well, he is already feeling his surrounding very well." when I look down and my hands are feeling the bed frame. When they said this I was like, oh yeah, lets try to stabilize the dream and started spinning while rubbing my hands together, it worked and the dream became clear again. It became even more vivid than before as I look down at my arms/hands in awe at how real everything is, I even noticed I had goosebumps on my arms. I turn to look at them and one of them turns into a man, and he runs out of the room, and down the stairs. I went after him and when I reached the top of the stairs I noticed 2 cars out the window on the street, I thought about trying to fly, but got distracted at how dark it was down stairs, there were no lights on at all. I decided to try to turn the lights on from where I was, it wasn't working at first but then I did an arm motion upwards and said all the lights would turn on and they actually did! After the lights turned on the 2 cars on the street took off (I don't know what that was all about lol). There was still a dark part of the room I noticed and I tried to send out a magic light from my hands, on the second try a light came out of my hands but it didn't move, it just stayed right in front of me. I tried to get it to move it I did not work. At this point I forgot about the person I was chasing and turned around when I started to notice that the dream was fading again and there was this message I could see in front of my eyes, it was like a transparent grey box with a yellow bar/text. The messages were like random stats of myself, there are only 2 I remember "Dream Stability" and something like "Yesterday's Calories". There were a lot of other ones that I can not remember, but as I was rubbing my hands to try to get the the dream clearer, the Dream Stability panel's bar started going up, and when I would stop it would go down. I was trying to rub my hands faster and faster as the bar was trying to fight its way up, but it was right around here when the dream ended.


Anyone experience something like that at the end? And do you think that those women were DG's? Those were the first DC's that actually helped me in anyway relating to my lucidity.

Oh, and another note is that the dream lasted around 19 min. I remember waking up before this dream and looking at the clock and it said 1:00PM, and when I woke up it was 1:19PM.
