Created Sunday 07 February 2016

I managed to achieve a WILD or two, as well as a few other near LD states. There were also two other normal dreams I could remember between said states, and although I could only remember scraps of the first in these series, I do know it's contents influenced, and were later partially remembered, in later dreams.

Dream 1 - Hey, You! It's Time to Speed Up!

Scene 1 - Basic WILD Transition
After some time spent attempting a WILD, I finally felt a change in my state, a familiar dizzying sensation in my head. I soon intermittently slipped between this and waking up, until the last one had me instantly warping into another location.

Scene 2 - Flying Through Ice Cap Zone
The visuals started grainy and blurred. I was flying quickly through a snowy valley, pine trees spread all around. The environment was notably rendered in low resolution, blocky 3D, as in a Minecraft world.

Now, I was somewhat upset at being in this game once again, but I decided to run with it, certain the environment would eventually change for the better in time. Indeed, I noticed the visuals clarifying and becoming more detailed as I moved along, though still retaining a cartoony 3D look. This eventually settled to appear very similar to parts of Ice Cap Zone from Sonic Adventure, one side of the valley a glacier, the other a flat, lightly forested mountain range, all now under a blue sky. Much better, I thought.

Soon, I noticed a long row of purple flying obstacles ahead of me, a group of those hovering blade drone enemies. I simply tilted far above them without incident.

It was then that I noticed an unnerving lack of any audio. Thus, I vocalized my own sound effects, starting with the rush of wind blasting past me, and then the spinning blades of the robots below. Surprisingly, this, in turn, caused such sounds to emanate autonomously. And as a bonus, I even unwittingly caused music to play along. After following the melody, I determined this as Azure Blue World, the theme for Emerald Coast; highly unsuitable, considering the environment, but it was all quite amusing nonetheless.

A moment later, I could see the environment deteriorating around me. But, I remained calm, and awaited a transition.

Scene 3 - Normal Sonic Boss Battle
The visuals were slightly blurred. This occurred within a metallic structure, numerous red and blue blinking lights and electronic components glowing throughout. The environment was depicted in 16 bit 2-D graphics, angled as a side scrolling game. I was not physically present, but I was still aware of my dream state.

Two figures soon rushed through. One was Dr. Eggman on his hovercraft, who was being chased by Sonic the Hedgehog, both styled as in Sonic 3 and Knuckles. Sonic pegs Eggman's pod with his spinning jump attack several times before the screen locks in place, allowing his foe to fly off-screen. This new location contained a few elevated metal platforms over a flat plane. Eggman soon returned within some large contraption, his vehicle now plated in thick armor and wrapped in various tubular exhausts.

By this point, I lost awareness, all from curiosity on how things would proceed. Not too sure what happens in the ongoing fight, though I somewhat recall Robotnik hovering far above at an unhittable angle, firing down projectiles from the craft's tubes. I don't know what else happened, but the dream ended about a minute later.

Dream 2 - Touchy Enigma

I was in bed, laying sidways, my back next to the wall. Once again, I sensed a change in state.

I took this opportunity to imagine Eris, my prospective Dream Guide, being nearby. That's when I felt a figure embracing me from behind, though I brushed this off as more hypnagogic hallucinations, which I tried ignoring. But these sensations became even more abrasive, as if the enigma were groping me. I was quite annoyed at this, though I still refused to budged.

Just then, I felt an extra pair of limbs wrapping around me, taking me completely off guard. Was this it, I wondered? The entity's continued stroking startled me further, particularly as it placed its hands where I never expected, let alone would have ever intended.

I was thoroughly confused at how to proceed, and eventually, too disturbed to go on, so I willingly stopped this.

Dream 3 - Picture Comicbook Dream Memories

The visuals were blurred. I was sitting by a round wooden table in an unknown location. Moreover, I noticed my brothers, Jozua and Crispinus, nearby.

In time, I saw that Crispinus was drawing something in a little booklet. I asked to see it, which I determined had drawings related to Sonic, Pokemon, and various other media, all drawn in an exaggerated, childish, intentionally silly style. This triggered memories of a forgotten dream earlier that day, the book containing a sequence of events as had occurred then. I commented on such a coincidence, but was met with skepticism. One of my brothers claimed I was suffering from "confirmation bias", while the other thought I was outright lying. I refused to believe as much, but let the matter go.

From there, I could now see I was sitting at a diner or a similar eatery, a glass display counter behind me. I then got up to walk around, passing through a queue rail. I soon noticed another familiar figure, my uncle Metrophanes, nearby, who claimed to work in the place.

My uncle then showed me and commented on some photo album he was making. This contained several pictures of him at his job, and a few profiles of various other family members, including mom and various other aunts and uncles. He claimed he would sell it for boiled potatoes, of all things, which was apparently the specialty at the diner. I then happened to notice the word "potatoes", dollars signs, and various numbers scribbled all throughout the album.

Suddenly, he starts yelling at someone passing by from behind me. I turn to see just a pale skinned, light haired kid. Nonetheless, my uncle was suspicious the boy would try to steal from the place. A woman soon took the kid and dragged him away. Metrophanes apologized for his mistake, stating it was his job to be suspicious or something like that.

I then turned beside me, where I find several small hanger stands, a few with clothes, and others with various other accessories. I guessed that's what he was guarding

Anyway, my uncle spoke of it being his time to guard the door. So he ordered me to keep watch indoors, as I just "remembered" I worked there as well. I still had the photo album, which I took to a small table to look over again. But when I opened it up, I failed to notice these now contained Crispinus's previous drawings, or rather, comic, made clear by the panels and speech bubbles. This contained various colorful unknown creatures I assumed were Pokemon talking to each other. They spoke of some impending peril that befell their fellow. I seemed to think this was a creepypasta parody, which I found especially humorous.

Metrophanes then passed by, wondering what I was laughing on about. I showed it to him, though he was, as expected, confused on the matter. I noted it was indeed a very specific joke.

Not sure what else happened, but the dream ended soon enough.

Spoiler for Media References:

Azure Blue World - Sonic Adventure

the teacher was frustrated that i was not being serious, i was goofing off in class, making jokes, amusing people, not following the lesson and i said to a girl on the desk behind me: "if im dreaming ill be able to breathe through my nose (closed off)" i tried it and it worked and i got excited. i got up and ran around the school, going from classroom to classroom to find pretty girls and kiss them. after a few minutes i wanted to do something else and remembered the totm. so i made my way outside, i had to go through (not literally, i opened them) several doors and windows, at the last or second to last window i got impatient and tried to (literally) go through the window and it bent but didnt let me through so i opened it and

when i was outside there were orange balloons on a rope stretched between buildings so i needed to walk a bit forward so i could see the sky without the balloons. so i did and then saw the sky with the balloons still in view but it was good enough. here is a link to what it looked like: [url]http://imgur.com/zFRlC0z[/url]
i named the file "close enough". the clouds had that shape and there were probably more and they were smaller but you get the idea. you see the orange balloons on the rope. the clouds were actually of a slightly darker grey-ish color, but its close enough :tongue: the sky was bright blue.

and then the dream ended.


notes of forgotten dreams: "a dream in turkey. danger? (that one was 15-20 minutes) turkey car?"

techniques: counting down from 100 and thinking "lucid dreaming" at every count. and the nose plug rc

the lucid dream was ~7 minutes.

March 3rd edit: So this is where i started the countdown thing. It's been 3 weeks now. And I'm at 31 lucid dreams. Makes sense.

Dream 1:

In this dream I was dating a black guy. But he never shows up in the entire dream. Instead, I am hanging out with his younger brother. In the dream I was supposed to be about 19 or 20. The younger brother is about 16. I can tell he likes me. He is flirting and being cute and super funny. I am laughing and having a good time. But then I realize that I shouldn't be doing this, so I try to remind him that I am dating his brother and that we probably shouldn't be hanging out as much. But he doesn't seem to care at all and doesn't stop flirting. And I am left torn, knowing that I should leave, but having a good time and not really wanting to.


Dream 2:

There is some sort of convention that is going to start the following week. I'm currently staying in the hotel where the convention will happen. And I can hear the lady who is taking reservations say that they are almost all booked for that week. I knew I needed to act fast and book my room. I reach for my purse and can't find it. So the rest of the dream I am running around to all the places that I had been where I could have left it.

Dream 3 (Fragment):

I'm at this big house/mansion. I walk all around it exploring. I find a basement room that actually open up to a harbor with a dock and everything. I walk towards the dock. I suddenly see what I think are killer whales. I carefully walk closer. But I can now see that they are something dead floating at the bottom of the clear water by the dock. I look down and see that they are huge black and white mice about the size of a large dog....just dead and laying on the bottom.

Dream 4:

I'm in a car with Roger driving. I'm in the backseat with my mom. We aren't wearing seatbelts and are kind of laying sideways (the way I was laying in real life). Suddenly I see Roger start to head off the road towards a ditch. I call out and he straightens out just in time. He admits that he was going to sleep. He said he was fine to drive again. I said sternly, "No, you are not! You need to go home and take a nap!" [This is the dream I think I had right as I was drifting back to sleep after waking up in the night.]


Dream 5:

Seems like I had another dream where I was at my mom's house. The details are right there on the edge of my memory.

non-dream dream lucid-dream

I will start by saying, this is not my first lucid dream, but it is my first since i restarted lucid dreaming. it was in fact quite underwhelming, because i was barely conscious, but it is always nice to see progress

I am sat on my settee watching a blank TV screen, think this is weird so i look at my hands, my right hand is normal but my left is very short and deformed, i get a strange fuzzy feeling and realize i am loosing consciousness. i stumble up to the fire and lean against it. i stabilize the dream a bit but everything is still very blurry and i am not thinking straight. i walk up the steps out of the living room and studdenly i am running super fast down a field. i reach the bottom of the field that is located bellow my house. it is strange because my neighbors house is at the bottom of the field when it should be at the top. i see police swarming the place and get scared, i try to hide but they see me and point there guns at me, i get scared and loose consciousness. Then there is some strange reality show (in the same location i am currently in) about the worlds richest child(like Richie rich, but she is a little girl of around the age of 8)she has a giant bouncy castle set up that has restracting pistons that allow the castle to turn into a giant table football game while kids are inside, she also has a bouncy castle(that size of an actual castle, filled with furniture)she comes over to me and asks to be my friend, i accept.

I was in my car and my car was swimming along the river-street, I saw a submarine and thought about light traffic Than i looked at my hands and understood that it can be a dream. I desided to make a TOTY with fairies. Put my hand in the water through the open window and picked up a litlle mermaid. I was interested how mermaids have sex and began to explore her tail. There was some moving flakes and they opened a hole enough to put a finger. Than i lost my awareness and had sex with mermaid.

Near my house one man is hiding his backpack. For the three days ( in dream world) i saw him hiding and picking it up. On the third day ( It was raining) i came to him and said : "you can keep your things in my house". He looks at me and says nothing. I went to my house. In a few hours a lot of people were in my yard and that man and his mum ( maybe) came to my door and looked inside ( the door was opened) I came to them and said : hey, stop it! We were talking about things, i don't want you to live here! Than his mum said that i stole something from the backpack. I became angry in a moment and beat her. We were fighting a bit, and i thought that i never fight in RL. So it must be a dream. I gave up fighting and went away, but i was really angry, made a fireball and threw it in my yard. I remembered about TOTM and looked at the sky. Nothing intresting. It was night, some clowds and some stars. I looked around finding some wall, but i had only fields around me and my yard with some smoke. I summoned a shop behind me. It was old and i tried to go through the wall, but couldn't even come to it. There were some forse between me and the wall I imagine that i'm a superman and flew to the wall and went through it. After the wall i saw a big room with a lot of chairs upside down. And i awoke.

Me and Liam were cruising down a road and we were having a grand ol time listening to music and going back and forth with it. we started coming up on this hill and when we went over it in the left lane our car went air borne and started to flip over, I tensed up at first and then I relaxed for impact. We ended up upside down at the pillar of a bridge, we climbed out and started climbing up the debris of gravel and stuff that was on the side of the hill underneath and some one else flipped and headed right for our car. We reached the top and then a zombie like creature crawled out of a hole to our left and we beat him off or ran I cant really remember and then suddenly we were fighting a witch that was able to take a knife hit but make it glance and we couldn't hurt her and we tried and tried, I eventually woke up still trying to kill the witch.

2/8/2016 I am starting to notice that possibly a dream sign that it is always midday or bright out in my dreams. Again, I really did not try to LD tonight so it is what it is.

I was sitting in a house that I do not really know in WL but in the dream I did. I think I also did understand that my Dad and brother were there as well but I did not see them. I was in a bedroom, sort of sitting on a bed and it was midday. I could see the sunlight seeping through the curtains. I remember being insanely bored, not knowing what to do and just sitting there upright in bed not having an awesome time. Then it transitions to a school room where it’s a computer lab. I was not sitting at a computer and contemplating taking a standardised test (ACT I think). I sign in and take the Maths portion and that is all. (I think that this is telling me that I should start studying for the ACT/SAT) Then I transition back to the house walking into the kitchen and still not knowing what to do. Maybe I saw my dad or brother but it gets fuzzy after that. It ends.

There was this bit that I was on a school bus alone with this weird dude and it was midday and we were driving down this semi-hill and there is a Lamborghini that is a cop car that is passing by. (Probably from GTA V) We go under an overpass. It ends.

No LD’s tonight. (Didn’t really try either)

First dream

There was a zombie outbreak in a skyscraper. Soldiers were sent there to clear the area for rescuing forces. They have failed, making the army of undead even bigger. While government was trying to completely remove zombies, some agencies hired mercenaries to gather information about them, their weak points and about survivors. I was one of the mercenaries. I entered the skyscraper and took an elevator to fourth floor. According to military data, it was the floor that was heavily infested, a death trap. I took only a step inside, and was attacked. It was dark and I couldn't see it. I took a knife and stabbed the zombie in throat. The elevator was broken and couldn't move further. I took staircase up, and found a room with a survivor. It was a redhead child. Little girl was lying under a cape in her bed. I heard someone moving and shoot at that direction. It was a young redhead woman, probably little girls sister. She got hit and fallen down the staircase. I entered the room with the girl. There was a man lying on the floor. He looked like one of my pals. He was pale and stiff. I asked the girl if he's alive. She said that probably not. I shot him in the head and said "Case of death: Shot to the head" and thrown him down. I decided to secure the survivor. We talked for a while about my goals.

Second dream

I was a black man. I was wearing a green t-shirt and blue short trousers. With a girlfriend - a black female, we were racing who will run from one point to another first. We ran through streets, alleyways and buildings, including building sites and factories. I lost two races, but won third. My girlfriend disappeared somewhere though, and I was really worried, as we had an argument some time ago.

Mike
I vaguely recall Mike Ross from Suits. He's outside somewhere in the nature. The ground is semi-covered in snow and the ground is made up of rock. There's a somewhat older white guy approaching in some type of weird motorcycle with a gun attached to it. He is shooting at Mike. Mike falls to the ground and crawls away, somehow miraculously not being hit, despite this being a machine gun. At some point Mike has what looks like an assault rifle aimed at the guy, who is now defenceless. I think the guy might be on his knees. At least two soldiers start approaching. I think they're on Mike's side, but Mike throws away his gone anyway. Huh? A few seconds later he decides to reach for the gun. Huh again? Why would he first throw it away and then reach for it?

Test [I don't feel like writing this dream out entirely. It felt like a long one and it was shitty.
I'm taking a test. One of my uni lecturers is present in the classroom and she keeps wanting to have a conversation. I'm not doing too well on the exam, despite it being open book. I'm frustrated. At some point two male teachers from my high school are sitting in front of the classroom. I decide I need to take a moment and walk outside of the building and walk around it. I consider myself stupid for doing so, because I don't have that much time left. As I'm close to entering the classroom again I suddenly remember that we're not allowed to take bathroom breaks during exams. Fck fuck fuck. I enter the class and on my exam has been written that I used 1/5 bathroom breaks. I'm allowed to have 5? That seems excessive. Another lecturer from my high school enters the class and she informs the other teachers that bathroom breaks are no longer allowed. A classmate and I have to come with her immediately. Fuck. This drama stretches out for a while.

7/2/16
Dream 1: I was part of some archaeological Egypt expedition. We were divided into a few different teams and based around a temple of some kind, where most of it was buried underground. I was standing in the shade of a sandstone entrance shelter, looking at the entrance where people were struggling on how to get into the temple within. I walked over and examined the wall for a door or anything, but there wasn't. I got struck with an idea and walked over to where a mine was being dug to recover artifacts. I met with someone there from another team, who grudgingly let me use the elevator they had down there. I travelled down to the lowest level, and somehow found a secret door into the temple. I went through and found an apartment style building with the owner not there. I realized that I was meant to be searching for some ancient lost legendary yugioh card, but I couldn't find it. I was searching for it but I heard a noise and twirled around as my brother was standing there. He was holding a deck of yugioh cards and I pulled mine out and challenged him to a duel. A few turns in he played the ancient card which I was trying to find. I became furious at him stealing such a treasure and redoubled my efforts to beat him.

Dream 2: Went back and to be and had a dream, something about something sexy hehe, I had to leave immediately when I woke up so most of the dream disappeared.

Night 3 didn't have much to report, but I think Night 4 made up for it.

I’m in this super fancy hotel, standing near one of the balconies overlooking the lobby. Suspended from the ceiling is a ton of panes of glass in a bunch of different angles, like some piece of modern art. I’m apparently a secret agent, on a Mission Impossible-type stealth mission, and our target is two floors directly above us. The stairs and elevators are heavily guarded, and the only way up is to climb the glass chandelier-thing up to the balcony above. I suit up, while my partner, this brown-haired woman in a business suit (it may have been Vi, in retrospect) keeps watch for guards. I equip these super-grip gloves like in MI: Ghost Protocol, and these gravity shoes that attract to the nearest surface, so I can transfer my body weight to the surface I’m gripped onto and sit in a Spiderman-like pose. I grab onto the first pane of glass, and then spin around so my feet are now on the next pane. I hang upside-down and watch my partner walk off, nervously talking into her headset microphone.

I maneuver my way around and through the glass panes, stopping every once in awhile to look around and determine which way is up. After a good amount of twisting and turning, and a bit of disorientation, I’m finally one jump away from the balcony, but then a lady on the floor spots me climbing and starts screaming. I am kinda stuck in an awkward position, so I can’t stop her, but suddenly my partner sneaks up behind her and pistol-whips her unconscious. She looks up at me, shrugs her shoulders, and helps me down.

I switch into my own business suit, and the two of us walk into the complex undercover. We make it to a large security door, where my partner scans her fake fingerprint to let us in. I look around and notice the different security systems. Motion detector above the door, laser grid to the side (powered down for now), and several cameras pointing in several different directions. All have the same logo on them - GL, a security organization that is a known front for one of our rival organizations. When our target finds out they’ve been broken into, GL will recognize our faces immediately from the tapes and set up a counterattack. The fingerprint is finally accepted, and we walk through the door.

We find ourselves in a back courtyard, fenced in by huge concrete walls, 40 feet high and about 10 feet thick. Our mark is standing next to a huge fountain with his henchmen and waves us in, so we walk towards him. There’s a very short conversation before there’s a loud explosion, accompanied with one of the exterior walls collapsing. The smoke and fog cover the fountain area, and me and my partner both run off to the outside of the smoke screen. There’s a huge hole in the wall, and through it crawls Tails the Fox from the Sonic games. He runs over to us shouting.

“You guys have to hide! They’re bringing the whole place down!”
“What? That wasn’t part of the plan!”
“Well it is now! Quick, the smoke’s almost clear, go hide!”
“No, we can’t blow our cover. I… I’m sorry about this.”
“Sorry? About wha-”

I land a hard right hook to Tails’ face that knocks him to the ground. I then pull out my pistol and point it at him. About this time, our mark and his henchmen run over to where we are. “We’ve been compromised, they know we’re here. We’ll have to move this rendezvous somewhere else. Suspect apprehended.”

I grab Tails by the wrist and pull him up, slapping my handcuffs on him before quietly whispering in his ear, “Don’t worry, buddy, I’ll get you out of here somehow…”

I’m now back in one of my engineering classes. My friends and I are talking, but I realize my phone’s almost dead. I grab my phone charger, but realize the wires are sticking out of the end of it. I’m trying not to electrocute myself with the ends of the wires, but one of my classmates sees this and purposely shoves the wires into my chest. It makes a very unpleasant tingling, but it’s not horribly painful. I politely laugh and tell him not to do that again, but he doesn’t listen. He grabs the wires from me and stabs them into me at different places on my body.

Spoiler for Dirty bit:

After several seconds of this, he eyes my crotch. “Don’t you dare.” I start kicking him, but two other classmates hold me down to the ground. He takes the wires and stabs them into my testicles, and I feel some intense pain and start having bad spasms. I shake so much that I wake up, heart pounding. My testees feel fine at least…

I now am driving in a car at a high speed down a highway, but I’m swerving a lot, no matter how hard I try to stay in control of the car. For the first time ever, I remember that driving is a dream sign of mine, and I become lucid. I start to slow down, but then I have an idea. The highway in front of me is incredibly straight, so I think it’ll make the perfect runway. I slam on the gas, and once I get up to speed, I pull back on the steering wheel, and the car leaves the ground. Sweeeeet. I maneuver the car around, enjoying the feeling of flying. I even roll down the windows and feel the wind blow through the car. I notice that the ground is covered by fog, and I decide to turn around, making sure that I have some visible ground so the dream doesn’t destabilize. The car’s still kinda hard to control though, and I actually start heading for some buildings. Just before I crash though, the buildings become slightly transparent, almost like holograms, and I phase right through them. I fly around like a crazy person for a bit, and watch as the scene around me keeps changing, at one point turning into a wireframe version of itself. I continue until I wake up.

I had a lucid dream a few nights ago, It was one of these where I don't remember where it started, but as soon as I became lucid I knew I needed to tackle something big. Lately I have been just flying around, which is fun, but it's not that exciting to write about afterwards.

So I decided I needed to get to the moon. It had been years since I had been. I decided to try the method that successfully got me there the previous time. It was just to do a complete scenery change.

So I concentrated. And everything started to shift. Finally it all became clear. And the thing that became clearest was the fact that I was not on the moon. This looked just like pictures I had seen of Mars. Hey, if you can't go to the moon, Mars is still cool, right? So I started walking around. I needed to explore. But as I started walking around, things started looking more and more familiar. I was disappointed to see that I was not actually on Mars but in the desert near my house that very much resembles Mars.

I suppose I should be happy that not only did I become lucid, but that I was able to change the scenery, even though it wasn't exactly the results I had wanted.

I woke up not long after realizing where I was.

I didn't write these down in my DJ and I didn't try very hard to remember them either so I think they might be missing some key details.

Dream 1 - Powers
I remember it being night time on top of a building, there was a group of us who were standing before our 'king', a person who wielded a lot of power. We were his champions and we all had different powers. I think I pulled a stunt, creating a large distraction with my powers for some reason. One of the other champions jumps into the air and flips this umbrella-spear out and spins it around. Suddenly it creates a rain shower of black energy pelting down on the magical creations I had summoned as a distraction, but I had anticipated this would happen. It was okay, because I had already achieved the effect I wanted. The king was impressed with the other champions quick reactions. Now that I think about it, I think I was plotting against them all because they were getting corrupt with power??

Dream 2 - Pee
I woke up and wandered to the toilet, then took a leak. But I remember that the pee was really concentrated and then it went normal, then it went concentrated again.. It went on for a while as I wondered why this was happening.

Dream 3 - Geology
I remember having written out a thesis for geology, I think I got like a B- or something which isn't great. The place I was in was a large warehouse building with lots of books everywhere on shelves. I was sitting down and I looked up and saw thesis' from past students. Wow I guess if you get an A then your thesis will be put up to be read. A friend nearby makes a comment and then I look over to the right a bit more, there's actually thesis' of all grades up there, including D's O_O.

I'm in my front garden, talking with a friend. It's sunny and the grass is almost neon green, the leave of the hedge shining. The breeze is warm, making my dress dances around my legs. As we talk a man in dark clothings come to the open portal and start talking about christianity, going on and on like a drone or a broken record, spewing aged nonsenses and franckly, offensives shit. It's hurting my friend and pissing me off, so I start telling his the more dirty, filthy things I can musters, in all the languages I know. He flees and I turn around to my friend with my biggest smile. She looks rather shocked, and it makes me laugh. I check the mailbox, in case the man put a pamphlet in it, and instead of that I fond a big pot of golden honey and a box of almonds. I shake the bow and the almonds rattle sharply, then I open the pot of honey. It smells wonderfully, it's a wild flowers honey, thick and shiny. I scoop out a handful, letting it flows between my fingers. Then I walk in, bus istead of my house it's my mother's place. The table is full of clean laundry, so I drop the box on the bar, alongside the honey pot.

... Once again I miss the more obvious dream sign ever. *shake first*
