    Lucid: Learning My Guide's Name, and Seeing His True Form *Updated*

    Dream - Lucid

    I was in an elementary school front office. I saw many women working there, and many working on computers in the back. I walked up to my mom, who was one of the women working on the computers. I "remembered" that this was her job now. She seemed content.

    Then, a girl at the front desk gave Dallas and I some drinks that looked like orange and red Kool-Aid drinks that used to come in the bottles (Kool-Aid Jammers?). She had stolen them to give them to us for the movie we were going to see. Her boss, a woman, asked her if she had stolen them. She said no, even though she obviously did.

    We were then leaving so we could get to the movie on time. This is around when I became lucid.

    I spoke to my husband for a long time. We spoke of past lives, I discovered he was in many. I asked about my mom, and saw an image of her as I did. I knew she was in some past lives as well; I knew before I even asked. A random DC appeared that had traditional African clothing on. I asked if he was in a past life, but he disappeared; he was just a regular DC. I remember something about the name Mary; it wasn't a coincidence that the people in my life have the names they do. I thought of all the Marys I knew (Mary Katherine is my best friend IWL, for example; I thought about this at this point in the dream). Dallas and I were on a lake at night for part of this dream.

    I then was walking through a mall. I felt the dream was about to end. Before I woke up, I saw many stores with signs lit by neon green lights. I felt like this is where the movie theater was located.

    I was determined to return to this lucidity to meet up with my spirit guide and find out his true form. I kept falling back into sleep and immediately being lucid, but I would wake again very shortly; the dream was not stable enough.

    Finally though, I re-entered sleep and stayed. I was lucid immediately; I felt SP and saw the dream forming. I waited a little bit before I went and did anything; I knew I had to stabalize first and foremost.

    The dream finally felt good enough for me to continue. To increase the stability a bit more, I examined my hands, and thought about what Hyu said to me about using your senses to increase stability. I used my sense of touch. I was walking through my family's kitchen, and felt everything I came across. I touched the counters, etc. The sensation felt a bit "muted" but it really did help. I thought for sure the dream would fall apart before this.

    I then was inside somewhere, walking down a wooden hallway, when I knew that I wanted to see my spirit guide. At first, I said
    "Dream guide appear!" but realized my error and corrected myself to
    "Spirit guide appear!"
    I then saw a shadow behind me. I looked behind me, and saw what looked like a girl I knew growing up named Jess.
    "Wow, this is tricky," he said, referring to taking on other forms.
    It didn't matter; I knew it was him. He looked like Jess, but had the voice of a man.

    I then started to feel as if I was losing the dream. I said to my guide
    "Please! Keep me in the dream!"
    He held onto me and things started to stabalize again. This happened a couple of times throughout the dream.

    We were then walking into a restaurant. It resembled a Cracker Barrel. We sat down at a table with a couple at it. He said to them
    "Excuse me, may we join you?"
    The table had dirty dishes and food on some of the dishes. We sat with them. We were across the table from one another. We were speaking, and I asked him his name.
    "Mike," he said. He then called me "Bethany".
    "Was that my name?"
    "Yes, you were very proud of me," he said. He was referring to a past life we had shared together.
    I had brief thoughts that he was a musician of some sort.
    "Mike, may I see your true form?" This was part of my goal for an LD.
    He replied, saying something about the way he would look, but I can't remember exactly what he said.

    We stood up. He then started to change. His head went down into his shirt; it was kind of comical. He then emerged, mostly, having his now tuxedo shirt and jacket part way over his head, which was partially stuck inside the shirt.
    He was a homely, red-haired middle-aged man. He was tall and skinny. I then asked him
    "May I see what I looked like?"
    I was then looking in a mirror on the wall. The mirror was a bit high for me (I'm quite short, even IWL). He instructed me on how to change my reflection. I don't remember exactly what he said, but I waved my hand in front of my eyes. In the mirror, I saw my eyes change. I kept going, and my whole face changed. I saw that I was missing a tooth also. I was a homely, kind-looking middle-aged woman with thin, fine wispy hair. I kept going even after this, and my face morphed into a rat's face. Oops, too far. I said something about this to my guide, and he joked about the rat face.

    We were then sitting down again, and speaking of something,
    when my husband's alarm woke me up.

    Alright, well I didn't end up going back to sleep after all, but I did get a chance to think a little more on this.

    Before I went to sleep, I thought about becoming lucid, about situations that could induce lucidity, etc. I imagined it happening as I was falling asleep.

    Wow, intention is such a powerful thing! I did not become lucid until early this morning, but that is the norm for my lucidity.

    I do believe that I am finally starting to see the power of my mind; I am finally being able to tap into things that I once thought I would never be able to do. I am finally, finally coming into my own, and being able to use my intent, and actually believe that it's going to work instead of having doubt tower over me. This feels legit. I am absolutely amazed.

    Now, I need to figure out what to do next. I think that I just need to let things flow, and when I meet my guide in my dreams, I'll know who he is now, hopefully, and that in itself will induce lucidity. I really hope that this journey I am on continues. I will, of course, keep you all posted.

      Very interesting!
      I wonder if your guide will take on his true form from now on?
      Nice that he helped you to stabilise the dream!

      I was quite intrigued with it all. There was more to our conversation than what I have posted, but I do not remember all of it, especially in the first dream where I was speaking to my husband about past lives. There was a ton of dialogue that I can't recall, I just remember generally what was said. Thankfully, I remembered more about the conversation with my guide.

      I hope that he does! He seemed like he was just getting his bearings, trying on different "skins" of people in my memory. I don't think he quite had the hang of it. XD But maybe now that I've seen his true form, he will take it more often.

      Nice that he helped you to stabilise the dream!
      This was very amazing to me, that he could help to hold me in the dream. If I hadn't asked for his help, I would have woken up.

      Remembering dialogue is a weak point of mine, and it's something I've been trying to work on.
      I've noticed that I don't actually talk out loud that often in LDs (I'm more inclined to communicate telepathically or with energy), but I've been trying to speak more to see if it helps me remember conversations.

      My DG has helped me to stabilise a dream before!
      What's the distinction between a Dream Guide and a Spirit Guide?

      I look forward to watching your relationship with Mike grow.

      I'm glad I'm not the only one with that problem! It's frustrating, because I know so many awesome, interesting things were said. There's gotta be a way to improve this.

      What's the distinction between a Dream Guide and a Spirit Guide?
      Honestly, I am not positive as to what the difference is. My best guess would be that a dream guide is someone whose purpose is to guide you through your dreams and your dream world, someone that has an "agreement" to do this with you in this life (I'm getting all metaphysical here, but it's what I believe and how I interpret it); I do not believe I made such an agreement. A spirit guide is like a guardian angel who watches over you and helps you over the course of your life, dreaming and waking. I have been searching for years for a dream guide, but I have never found one. I believe that I needed to tap into this myself, be my own dream guide, if you will. If you haven't, take a look at my last lucid; it was just a couple of entries ago. It has a good example of what happens when I try to summon a dream guide. If you want some more examples, I have a lot of old DJ entries I can link you to. I'd be happy to share them with you if you're interested.

      In short, all the times I asked for a dream guide, I always got nothing, or I was lead into just waking up by DCs or entities. But in my last LD, the one a couple of nights ago, I asked for both my dream guide (got nothing) and my spirit guide, and I met him. He took the form of my husband in that dream.

      I look forward to watching your relationship with Mike grow.
      Thanks! Me too! I'm excited to have more dreams with him. Like I said, hopefully just seeing him or feeling his energy will help me to become lucid more often, and I can actively explore things with him.

      Good job summoning your spirit guide!
      I look forward to see in which ways he is going to help you out.

      Wow, very cool how natural it's becoming for you to summon your spirit guide now! Already in just the past couple of dreams it's gotten easier and easier and you're learning more about the roles he can play in your dreams.

      Yeah, the assisted stabilization was really cool too. I mean, it makes sense that if you can stabilize by rubbing your hands together or touching other parts of the dream, that he can also reach out and touch you to have the same effect, but it's so much cooler this way.

      Good stuff, I'm excited to see where this takes you!

      LOL at the rat face! Good job. Dream/Spirit guides are weird.

      True fricken story. Though I think it would be boring if they were normal.
