Nonlucid, Lucid, Partially lucid May 24, '11: I am in a hotel or dorm. There is a girl who is a housekeeper. some people call her to their room. They trick her and burn her face with a hot paper towel roll on a stick. I get very angry and yell at the guys. I get a long stick and attack one of them with it. I say I am unstable and might kick his ass too much. I flip the guy onto the floor. Then I am fighting one man. He knows karate and dodges the stick. I lose my stick and try throwing knives at him. He throws a bunch of knives at me. I makes the knives, so he can't run out. I block and defend myself. Then I throw other things at him. I throw two bowls that don't reach him. I say they are not aerodynamic. Then I pretend to have a large gun. I make the sounds and the guy acts like he is hit. He cannot be killed, but it makes him unable to attack me. I say "Why didn't I think of this earlier?" I shoot him several times and say "I could do this all day. But so could he. Imagine doing this forever. Doesn't that sound fun?" I am being sarcastic. Everyone there gets tired and give up.
Nonlucid, Lucid, Partially lucid May 3, 2011: I am lucid in the dream, in a hallway. I want to see my dream guide. There are paintings on the wall. I pick one up and ask if it is my dream guide. A girl appears. She won't talk when I ask her questions. I tell her she is pretty. Then I tell her to say "aardvark." She doesn't. I am carrying her around. She shrinks and changes form into a thing with creepy skinny limbs that hook onto my face. I throw the thing to the ground.
Nonlucid, Lucid, Partially lucid April 30, '11: I am in a bathroom that has a large glass wall. The curtain is also see-through. I realize that people can see in with the light on. I go outside and down some steps. There are lots of dangerous people around. They are all escaped convicts. I have a violent fight with a few of them, during which I become partially lucid. I jab my hand through a guy's chest and/or head. Then, more fully conscious, I stop fighting and tell everyone that because this is my dream, I want to be in charge. I tell them that I want to have fun, exciting dreams, with some erotic things, but not too much.
Nonlucid, Lucid, Partially lucid April 25, '11: I go outside and find my car door open. I see another car with its doors open. Laura is there, taking the car, pushing it. She tells me she is doing it for exercise. She and her boyfriend/husband get in the car and drive away. I start to fly and follow them. I make a magic link to the car so I can follow it easily. I become partially lucid. As I fly, I see a meteor shower. The meteors crash into the ground, causing explosions Two of them hit me, and it stings. I am flying on a chair and holding a pillow. I see a lady riding an ostrich and other people running or riding things. They are in a hurry to get to work. I figure that must be where Laura is too. I ride the ostrich with the lady. We stop and everyone stands in a group, facing their boss woman. The boss lady fires and old man and makes him pay $600 or more. I shout, with my hands cupped around my mouth, "That's bullshit!" I tell her that it is not fair to make him pay her for working and being fired. I tell them that in my world there are regulations controlled by the government, to protect people. They don't seem to like this. As I talk, I pick up a packet of mayonnaise, bite it, and suck on it. I say "gross" and throw it down. Someone tells me I am not a very good speaker, or leader, or something like that. Everyone leaves. An old man who looks kind of like Fred Phelps (of the Westboro Baptist Church) approaches. He is angry and has a knife (a bread knife). I grab the knife and stab him with it. It is like he is made of wood. Then I run away with the knife and throw it over what looks like the edge of the world.
Nonlucid, Lucid, Partially lucid April 23, '11: I am running down a sidewalk. I run through a fence opening, past an old man. The old man is angry at people running past his house. I start running backwards to face the old man. I tell him I’m sorry, but it’s the only way I know how to get where I’m going. He is not angry anymore, and we hug. I continue running, now very tired. I wonder where I was going. I can’t remember. I realize I must be dreaming, so I relax and start floating.
Nonlucid, Lucid, Partially lucid March 25, '11: I was trying to find somewhere to sleep. I think I laid down in a hallway and did a WILD within the dream. I became lucid, and said "This is a dream, so I can do anything I want." I picked up a ukulele and strummed on it a bit, tunelessly. There was a girl there. I held her hands and said this was a dream, but also very real, and I touched her face. Then I attempted to stabilize the dream. I told the girl that I wanted to open myself to higher guidance. I said "higher source" at first by accident, then "higher source of guidance." The girl seemed annoyed or put off by my statement. I got down on my knees, looking up at her, and repeated my intent. Everything got a bit brighter. she became naked and we had sex for a moment. she or I asked how this would help with the guidance. Then I became scared and asked how I could overcome nightmares. I got no response, then woke up. I WILDed again. It was dark. I felt along a wall and eventually gained sight. I looked in a mirror and asked for help with finding "higher guidance." Nothing happened. I put my head out a window and asked again. I heard something and slid out the window, into another room. There was a woman and more mirrors. I dis some stuff in the mirrors, and the woman gave me a BJ. In the mirror, it looked like thee was a man with a penis for a head. There was an elevator. A small, skinny man fell down into the room. I was expecting someone else. A huge woman who could barely fit slid down the elevator shaft. She landed and kissed me. We danced and kissed. She had a sort of toad-like head, with a wide face. Then it felt like Alice in Wonderland. I was very small for a moment. My legs were sore. I climbed into bed, laid down and woke up. My physical body was sore from the position I was in.
Nonlucid, lucid, partially lucid March 15, '11: When attempting to WILD, I had a mini dream in which I was in church and uncertain about reality. I suspected I might be dreaming, and worried that if I wasn't, something felt odd. Then I woke up a bit and realized I had been dreaming. I began to move my right dream arm. Then I floated up out of bed. I flew around the room, swooping down and back up again. I wanted to ascend to a higher plane, but I wasn't sure how. I grabbed a plant, pulled it from its pot and tried to absorb it, or merge with it. It only sort of worked. The room was dark. I stopped flying and went around the room turning on the lights, but it was still dark. I opened the window, put my had out and asked the dream for help making it daylight. A voice said "OK" and then the sky lit up, making everything brighter. I was outside. I wanted to make a little private world, with one of my female characters there. I called her Emily, even though that's not her name. I asked the dream for help with getting her to be there, and said please. When I turned around, there were some professional-looking people standing around. I picked a couple of them to help. One was a scientist lady with curly red hair in a ponytail. I told them what the character looked like, but they already knew. They walked off to do something, to make her, I guess. There were also lots of workers around, building small houses and other structures. I was happy to see progress being made. Unfortunately, I woke up before seeing if the character would actually show up.
Nonlucid Lucid Partially lucid Some of my favorite dreams are those in which I am visiting another world, or dimension. Even they are not lucid dreams, I think these are very interesting. Tonight's dream was one of these types. March 12, '11: Dr. Farnsworth, from the cartoon show Futurama, had a dinner party, with important guests. The food was made from anti-matter, or dark matter. I think he called it "black matter" once. One woman imploded from eating the food. I was waiting for my mother to come out from a nearby building. I drew a cartoon bouquet of flowers (on the ground?). Mom came out from the building. She told me she had said I could have a wank while I waited. Then I was talking to her on a phone. She said that the sun was always up in this world. I told her I had noticed that too. The place didn't have nights. At this point I was partially lucid. I knew I was in a world that was not my normal reality. I tried to think of the name of the place where we were, but I didn't know it. Mom stopped talking and the phone was silent. I said "hello?" but got no response. So now my mother was lost somewhere in this dream world. I walked a little way and asked a guy if he had seen my mom. I picked him up on my lap, or on my knee and said "She's a crazy lady with slightly wavy brown hair, a big mouth, and talks a lot. She has a long neck like me." The man talked, giving me directions somewhere. I was distracted by a beautiful night sky, with lots of stars and two moons. I thought it was interesting because the city, or world, had never had nighttime before. I had to ask the man to repeat what he said. He told me where to go, but warned me not to press any of the buttons. I don't remember why. I walked back and into a building, and jumped into a very small lift. This is where the buttons were. The lift worked automatically and carried me up to another floor. I felt like I was familiar with how this world worked and I was confident that I could find my way around with any accidents or something. I was on a floor with big machines and people working. They wore goggles and aprons, and maybe gloves. They were shoveling something off the floor. I went down the hall and turned left. There I saw Allison. I wondered if it was the real Allison or just someone who looked like her. In a narrow dead end hall to the right, I saw my mother and Eddie. I was glad they were not lost. This dream is also rather interesting because most dreams with my mother are very stressful and we argue a lot.
Nonlucid Lucid Partially lucid False awakening March 10, '11: This WILD led directly into a false awakening. I got up out of bed and went to the kitchen. The cabinet opened slightly by itself and I was a little scared. I went back into my room and thought to do a reality check. As I realized I was dreaming, I sort of dived or fell into bed and woke up. But I didn't move and I entered a lucid dream. I did the nose pinch to confirm that I was dreaming. I looked in a small mirror on my wall and the reflection scared me. I rubbed my hands together and looked at them to stabilize. Then I licked the blanket on my bed because I remembered the thread on the DV forum about licking things in lucid dreams. The blanket didn't feel or taste like anything. I licked the carpet and it felt like you would expect it to. There was even lint still on my tongue after. I left my room and saw a cat lying in the hallway. I asked him if he could be my dream guide (this was my current dream goal. I thought since there is almost always a cat in my dreams, maybe one could be my dream guide.) He just grunted and I took that to mean "no." I went into the kitchen and said "It's me!" meaning, the dreamer. I'm not sure what happened next, but I woke up. Again, I didn't move and I started another lucid dream, back in my old bedroom. there was a larger mirror this time. I played around with my reflection, dancing and moving my arms around. i tried to poke my finger through my palm, but it didn't work properly. then I licked the metal bed post and it tasted weird. I left my room again, repeating "I'm dreaming." There were lots of cats in the kitchen, running around and playing, and fighting some. I wanted to ask my cat, Wilton, if he could be my dream guide, but he wouldn't stop long enough. I picked up a white kitten that I did not recognize and asked if it it could be my dream guide. The cat did not respond. It just acted like a playful kitten. I asked if this were a lesson to show that I wasn't in full control. If so, I said, "that lesson has already been beat into the ground." The cat turned into something scary and I woke up.
Dream Lucid Partially lucid Feb. 28, '11: I was walking up the driveway, to the road. A car drove by and I hid behind a wall. I walked down the road and another car drove towards me. I moved and tried to avoid it by jumping over it, but the car swerved, hopped, and floated in the air. I saw police car lights flashing up ahead. i got into the back of a truck or something. A female cop walked by. I was partially lucid by this point. I said to the woman "can I ask what's going on?" referring to the police cars and lights. She said "yes." I said "will you tell me?" and she said "no." I thought this was slightly amusing. I told her that she was sexy. Then I lifted her up and laid her down in the truck bed with me and we had sex. I made sure to not wake up while doing it. Across the street I saw another woman, at a desk, in a cubicle-like room. She had a very pointy nose that I made her stab into the desk. Then she sort of turned into a pencil and I broke it. Then I was inside another office, with a man at a desk. I was on top of the desk. I told him this was my "dream bank." I wanted to stay in the dream after he left the room (for some reason, I thought this was an issue). I also told him I wanted to look through his desk drawers after he left. He didn't care. I put on a scratchy dark gray sock he gave me. After he left, I looked through his desk, but I didn't find anything interesting.
Dream Lucid Partially lucid Feb. 12, '11: I was walking through some wide hallways with Adam and Nathan. We found a university-type classroom. It was open to the hallway, with a missing wall. There was no class at the moment. The professor was there. He was very strange looking, with a big mustache, partially bald with dreadlocks. I didn't trust him, and I suspected that his mustache was fake. He offered to teach us a class about modifying animal and human body parts. I was scared and left. I found my family (and friends?) at a round table. I felt that the professor was coming after me, now as a monster. I pretended to have a gun to protect myself. It was invisible, but it worked. I was partially lucid. I had sex with J. She said "well that's cold." I pointed out that it was interesting how she said what I figured she would say in waking life (she is often sarcastic), rather than saying some fantasy thing. I pretended that she said some ridiculous (cheesy) sexy thing and we both seemed to get more passionate. I am most distracted by sex when I am only partially lucid, and not fully conscious. In another dream, I think I was partially lucid. I was floating in the air with N. She showed me how to fly by pushing the ground with energy from my palms. I thought it was an interesting method of flight.
Dream Lucid Partially lucid Every night so far this month I have had some kind of lucid, partially lucid, or lucid-like dream. Feb. 8, '11: I was back in my parents' house again (just like last night) In my bathroom mirror, I saw a man standing behind me. It was creepy, but I staid calm. I might have been close to considering that I was dreaming, but instead concluded that I was awake. I asked the man why he was there. I asked if he had come with a warning or a message. He was talking, but I couldn't hear what he was saying. He was a slightly heavy-set man, with a mustache and beard, and darkish skin. His hair was black and it might have had long, but I'm not sure. Then I had a false awakening. I looked at a mirror and started screaming (I don't know why). I put my hand in my mouth and pushed my arm into my throat. I realized I was dreaming, but I thought I heard an alarm. I had another false awakening. I turned off my alarm clock and saw that it was around 8 or 9 AM, much earlier than I thought it was. I was glad that I had more time to try to WILD. But then I actually woke up and it was much later than my dream had said it was.
I was just reading through some old dreams in my physical dream journal, for Zebrah's Intro-2 class, and I decided to sketch some of the things that showed up in my dreams last year.
Dream Lucid Partially lucid February 1, 2011: I attempted the same WILD method as the night before. Slept for 6 or so hours, awake for 20+minutes, focused on breathing while lying on my back. I felt close to success several times, but no vibrations. Eventually I moved to my side and had regular dreams and a partially lucid dream. I did not remember to do any of the things I meant to do. Dream: Ricky Gervais (I think?) was swimming in a small pool. strange things started happening. His body did impossible things and a few times there were two of him. I was seeing this from a first-person perspective. Then I was in the kitchen, on the floor. I knew I was dreaming, but I was not fully lucid. There was a cat who was being mean and scared of me. I had a false memory that the cats always act that way in my dreams. In fact, they don't. I got up and walked to another room, saying dramatically that I had full power, but then remembered that I didn't because I was still learning. The house looked like my grandparents' house (mother's side) but I thought it was someone else' (I was not thinking clearly because I did not seem to be fully conscious). I pulled out a drawer from a dresser and dropped it on the wood floor. It bounced a couple of feet and surprised me. I dropped another one and it bounced higher. There was a small mirror that I tried to break with the handle of a hair brush. It didn't break at firs. I saw my reflection and I looked crazy. The mirror did break after a few hits. Then I walked through the house breaking other things, like a glass table. Soon after that I woke up. I have noticed that when I am only partially lucid in a dream, I tend to start breaking things for no reason. I wonder why....
Dream Lucid January 26, 2011, Pet rats get loose: I had my two pet rats (died a long time ago in waking life) in Adam's old house. One of the rats was the size of a young cat, the other was the size of a mouse. The bigger one didn't like me. She got loose and wanted to play with the cats. Then the smaller one got loose and lost in the house. I told Adam's mom about it. She was not concerned. My Dad was there, making annoying jokes. Other dream: I climbed a building, onto the roof. There was a construction site, partially inside the building. I jumped and glided through/over the construction area, grabbing a basket of laundry in mid-air. The laundry belonged to the main construction guy. He talked about a fountain in a nearby building that I had not been inside. He said he was the best. He told me that I was annoying everyone, but if I enjoyed it then it's OK because it will bring me "comfort and joy." Then a cop showed up. He had a very large syringe, almost as big as himself. He stabbed me in the bottom of my feet and it made me wake up.
