lucid

Dream 1: False awakening. I forgot I had gone to sleep and was outside with my brother haveing a smoke. We were both by the garage. My brother went away when i was distracted. so i peered around the corner and saw that he was taking a piss (it's still dark out at 6 AM.). after a minute he came back around the corner and went into the house.

I paced around the backyard like i usually do when i smoke. Something caught the corner of my eye. There was a dog in the yard directly across from the alleyway. He moved into the street light a bit and i saw he was a doberman. i thought " wait a sec. There is a dog across the alleyway but it's a house to the left and it isn't a Doberman!". For a second i knew i was dreaming. The dog seemed to pick up my realisation and it leapt at me. As it was leaping at me i pointed at it and said "haha, you can't hurt me 'cause you're not real". I watched him vanish into mist in mid air! (note: I just realised i pointed in dreaming for the first time without realising it, and the pointing revealed a phantom image.).

My slow rational mind thought " Well maybe the dog was just a hallucination, I'm not dreaming" What I should have been thinking was "dogs don't turn into mist when you point at them this really must be a dream!". But, Unfortunately I went through the rest of the dream this way.

I then walked along the alleyway and turned into the street. I noticed something catch my eye. I went to pick it up and it was a can of green beans. i thought "who would throw a perfectly good can of food out?". And on I walked. I turned to the street on the right and saw that i was downtown. I thought "this isn't supposed to happen, downtown is still two blocks away... where Am I?". As i kept walknig downtown I noticed a McDonalds. I knew that there wasn't and Mickey Dee's in didsbury, so I concluded i must be in the future or something.

I then went into a mini mall. Didsbury has no mini mall... I walked through one room and walked into a television news studio where people were preparing to start the news. i thought "Didsbury has no TV studio... where Am I?". I walked through the next door and came to another TV studio. I accidently knocked over a camera. No one was mad or seemed to notice. I walked through the semi circle of camera displays and noticed one guy in the directors chair was blocking my path. He then noticed me, smiled, and got up to clear the way. I thought " Why Am I being treated like royalty?".

After the camera display there was a group of tables where people were sitting. I recognised one of my friends from Didsbury. So i sat at the table and said to him "hey man, I just had the funniest dream! i was walking around in didsbury and it had a mcdonalds, and the thing is: There's no MdcDonalds in didsbury! wtf" The whole table laughed like it was funny. They were laughing at me 'cause i didn't realise i was still ni that dream!

Note: I'm going out no the town tonight. and if i see that guy i will tell him the dream! only maybe I'll finish with "... and then i sat down at a table with you just like this and told you the exact same dream!"

Dream 2: I was in a clinic of some sort. I don't know what i was there for. But i saw "B". My cousins recent ex girlfriend. She had shaved her head and in the dream she looked really un appealing. I was talking to some people, and she walked by, looked at me, and ignored me. I thought "i guess i'm no longer her friend now that she's no longer with my cousin"

Dream 3: I was on the DV forum reading a post by jeff777. As i read his post i could hear his voice saying the text in my head. He was saying something about the cusp!

Dream 1: I was in a city that was on a hill. I walked out of a house and I was on my way to see my old room mate Dan. But all I remember was going into another house and meeting his half brother Trevor. It was a long dream but i can't remember all the details.

Dream 2: I was in a chinese store and was looking around. I went to a desk and said something. But the one man started accusing me of being racist. I spent a few minutes explaining what i had said. and That i meant no harm. I apologised and kept on this way until the people in the store calmed down. I went to leave but a display of chinese swords caught my eye. I was thinking "Isn't it a chinese proverb that a customer is always right" (i have no idea if that's a chinese proverb lol, but it made sense in the dream). Anyway I looked at a wooden kendo like sword. It caught my eye and was only $40. i was pondering buying it.

dream 3: I was walking on a suburb street. I was on my way to meet a man with silvery hair and a round face (lonewolf?). I came by the house where he was supposed to live, but there was a couple of dogs at the house just before the one i was supposed to go to.. They noticed me and began to growl. one barred it's teeth so I crossed the street. I heard them growling behind me and dared not to look back. I came to the street corner and the meaner dog was in front of me. It leapt at me and bit right through my hand. It hurt so much that I yelled in pain. I Tried to yell "help me!" but my voice came out very weak and was barely heard by even me.

Sometime later i was walking down another street i was thinking "if only i had my own dog to protect me." I think this dream was saying i needed some sort of shield to meet the man.

Dream 4: I was in a corner store being run by East indian men. I remember the one man handing me my bag and i walked out. when I got out of the store i realised that i didn't have my bag with me. When i walked back in it was a different store and a different clerk. I saw my bag lying on the ground. "I'm dreaming!" i said to myself. I forgot my basic stabilization tasks like rubbing my hands and looking at them and other object systematically. But I remembered i was looking for C. I yelled out her name a few times, but as I was walking out the door, my vision went double and the dream vanished.

Dream 5: I was in that calgary house again, the one from my first dream. I was walking on a board over a stair case. but it was weak and fell. I narrowly escaped falling down. I then Told my dad we needed a proper plank over the stairwell.

Dream1: I was back in my old town of chilliwack b.c. I was standing at a plaza near my old elementary school. I was in front of one of the video stores looking across the street to the safeway. I noticed a large screen on the safe way nad concluded: This must be a dream. I stood stationary focusing on the images of the screen. I tried to will myself throught the screen. It seemed to grow larger and i could see images of war going on. It reminded me of some of the war video games that are coming out now. For some reason i couldn't enter the screen. So instead i tried to fly towards it. My body felt so real that it seemed impossible to fly. It tried to enlarge the screen to overtake me once more but to no avail. I remembered i should look at my hands. My hands rose to my face and i saw that they were mine. I began looking at other objects in my periphials in a systematic fashion to try and stabalise the dream. The dream seemed to speed up, cars passed by by so fast that i was getting lost in their movement. I went back to my hands as a starting point and tried the same system again. Everything seemed to stabalise but then suddenly faded out.

Dream2: I was on a planet like ship. I was in a large hangar with some people i seemed to know. Somebody ran up to our group and started yelling "WE have to evacuate, We're caught in a gravity well of a large comet and we're going to collide with it in four hours." I said "I think we should start packing all essentials and leave immideately, Tammy Help me get this boat down." I climbed a ladder of a large crate and someone on the other side helped me take the canoes from off the top of the crate. After unloading certain things and packing for a while. our group decided to split up and collect our personal items and collect family members for escape.

I decided my personal belongings weren't worht the effort so i went to look for people instead. I left the hanger and went on to the more populated portion of the ship. It was a huge glass dome with a city underneath it maintained by a false atmosphere. The town again resembled Chilliwack B.C. I walked along the streets towards downtown. I looked up into the night and saw a glowing red and orange object that seemed far off. I knew this was the oncomming comet. I enetered some sort of office building and began to look for someone. I recognised a design on the door. I knew it was the same symbol Solsky has in his sig here on DV. I went into his office and couldn't find him. So i ran out into the street. I ran into a woman who seemed to be looking for Solskye. So i ran along the streets looking in cars. people had stopped their cars in their tracks and some seemed to be asleep at the wheel.

I saw Solskye asleep in his car. i was going to wake him. but i looked up for a moment. The reddish object was now 4 times larger than i had seen in perviously and concluded that a couple of hours had already passed since i last looked. I ran back to the hangar but no one was there. i suddenly ran into the other people who were helping me move stuff, and i said "Well is it time to leave yet? we're all gonna die if we don't move out now." We began moving to an escape ship and the dream ended.

Dream1: Instant lucid. I was standing in a white place where all the DV members were sleeping. I saw one bed read: Amazeo xD. I suddenly remembered to look for R. I yelled out her name really loudly a couple of times.
suddenly I was in a black space. I hear R call me back in the darkness. I called her name again.

Her: It's too dark I can't find you.

me: just keep moving you'll run into me.

By this time i really had to pee so i decided to wake up.

Dream2: I was at a nightclub. I was walking towards the dancefloor and recognised a black girl i knew from highschool. But she had a beard. I walked right past her and onto the dancefloor.

"Arthur" I heard someone call out behind me. I thought "Oh no someone has mistaken me for my brother again". i couldn't see who was calling me so i went back up to the bar area. I hear my brothers name being called again.
I bought a cheese bread snack and sat down with jeff777 at a table. WE ate our food quietly. He got up and i got up shortly after. I don't remember what happened after that, but suddenly i was in a boxing ring with jeff.

WE were kung fu fighting for fun. The fight seemed to slow down and i could measure each counter to his moves. I blocked so many of his moves he just shrugged his shoulders and left.

Dream 3: I was a wolf walking on a dirt road. I came a cross a T in tersection. It was obvious I was on a mountain. At the T intersection a large farming fence. Behind the fence were cows. They started running because a Bull was vicously attacking them. They stopped in their tracks, so did the bull. I looked towards the other ends of the road and standing guard were these incredibly large horned bulls. I sensed there was gonna e a slaughter and I was caught in the middle of it. Just then I saw a pack of Wolves huddled together and ready to defend themselves. I felt safe as soon as I saw them So i cautiously walked up to them and joined them. I knelt my head and waited for the battle to start.

Dream4: I was on a busy street riding with people in a Car. I got out of the car and started riding a very large bike. The bike was so large that the scenery was small beneath me. It was hard to control and the brake handles were pushed in. I was dodging things carefully while pulling out each brake handle. When i succeeded i parked the bike in a ditch. And suddenly i was blocked somehow from all side of the ditch. i couldn't get out.

Dream5: A brief dream where Dan And Jesse from Ontario came to visit. They were staying At my house. I noticed they had resumes with them. I told them "wait... you're moving in and loking for a job?". They both giggled and said "Yes"

Short Lucids:

I was standing in my living room by the couch. I realised i was lucid. I looked at me hands and flipped them over a few times. I heard My dad and my brothers girlfriend talking. I kept worrying wether i was standing up in real life for some reason.

Everything went blank for a while. i noticed myself in my sleeping position then suddenly i was in my living room again staring at my hands. The scene faded but i was still in control of my dream body. I started going through The Openeing moves of the Tiger and Crane fighting set. I got p[assed a few moves and then woke up.

Anyway I had a Semi long LD.

I Tried to WILD at 4 am this morning. The alarm went off and for once i remembered i should WILD. I was too tired to browse any forum pages or read.

I layed back. closed my eyes and had my arms by my sides. I remembered something i should try from reading Claritiy's WILD tutorial. I went through the alphabet. Trying to Conjure and Image for each lletter. It was actually difficult. my mind wanted to sleep and i kept forgetting the letters in order.

I'd go: A - Apple, B - Banana, C - canada..... What's next? ummm A, B C??? D!!. that's it!!! Dinosaur! Elephant. finger, Granola, Hypopotamous.....
wait.. what's next? abcdefgh I!!!! Ignorant. etc.

I went through the alphabet a few times when i noticed my arms were going numb. I relaxed more and waited for HI. Nothing came. but a few energy looking thingies. i tried not to focus too hard and let the images float by. Sometimes i would see a face or a landscape. But generally No dice.

I focused on the sensation of my arms and relaxed more. It felt like a heavy blanket was being pressed down on me. My right arm slowly began to rise on it's on volition. I'm thinking "fuck! Arm catalepsy is a deep hypnosis phenomena, not for Lucid dreaming" But i took it as a sign anyway. My right arm continued to lift on it's own and then rested by my head. A few minutes later my left arm repeated the same movement.

I suddenly got a bit of feeling back in my hands. The very tips of all my fingers had an itch sensation. this went on for what seemed like eons. I finally gave in and scratched the hell out of myself. i spent a few minutes scratching all over and then turned over. I no longer felt itchy. i thought i would try to WILD again in this position.

I was suddenly aware of a dream being formed. I couldn't see anything. But i felt like i was in two places at once! I could either be in my bed asleep. or in this supposed dream. I sensed my dream hands in front of me. So i acted "As if" i were in a lucid dream and looked at them. i flipped my dream hands over a few times. I also tried gazing at other objects i couldn't see. The dream began to take over. but i noticed someone else was in the dream. I couldn't see but i sensed him somehow. I felt it was "Raven" my next door neighbor. So i yelled to him. "RAVEN! this is a dream, Just look at your hands"

The dream took over completly. I was in a room with a few of my family members. I forgot it was a dream and i was interacting with everyone. There was music playing. I listened for a while and i recognised my favorite metal band "Wuthering Heights". I thought it was strange. My family hates my music.

I Saw a shadow like vortex apear in the room and someone was trying to come through it. It was Raven. I tried to pull him into the dream but he was having trouble. I was gonna get the other dream characters to help. but i forgot about Raven as soon as I turned around.

"It's morning isn't it?" I thought. I immideately went to breakfast. I noticed the music playing still. I questioned again wether it was a dream. I looked at my hands. They were my hands. Not deformed like in a dream. I felt the table and it was a real table. The music i heard was real. It was the song "Longing for the woods PT.2" It was in the middle of the lyric " I am A wanderer I've seen many a Shore.."

My gut instinct still insisted it was a dream. "What to do what do to what do...." It occured to me i should try the lucid Task of the month. But darnit! I forgot what the task was. then i thought " I know i should go to DV in this very dream and find out. even if it's the wrong dreamviews task. i should read what it says and try it!" that thought startled me because ir ealised i was thinking and behaving exactly like i do in normal life. In fact the feeling was exactly like the times i had Taken LSD or ingested Mushrooms.

I quickly ran down stairs and went into my room. It looked like my room. I grabbed my keyboard and looked at the screen. The webpage wanted me to sign in. i vaguely sensed it was strange since i have my cookies et to "Awlays logged in". When the page came it wasn't DV. The screen was blurry but focused. I was suddenly reading a Batman comic on the internet?

I Typed in the Dreamviews webpage but i couldn't get my keyboard to work. I started getting popups on the screen of other comic books. I was losing control and forgetting all over again. The Dream became very nonsensical and i felt as if i was merging with my computer screen. When i was consumed i woke up!
