Too bad I got woken up prematurely, this dream was really promising

Lucidity: 9/10
Control: Only did passive control
Vivacity: 8/10

After one whole dream which turned out to be a book I was reading, I walk out of my room to find my mom, sticking fake braces to her teeth. She explains that it's for a family photo with our less-direct family and that we're all going to have fake braces. As I walk over to a mirror, I notice that I have one stuck to one of my teeth. After pulling it off, I see that I have a tooth which is completely twisted around. I examine my mouth just a bit more only to find that all of my teeth are in horrible conditions. I wore braces for three years and only took them off a few years ago, so that's really bad news . My mom asks me if I'm alright and I shrug,
"Nah don't worry it's a dream. I don't get fooled by these super common dream signs anymore."

I toss my tablet onto the couch and walk over to my room, rubbing my hands together. I check reality more to stabilize than anything else. As I look outside the bay windows, I understand that the whole "party" is happening right now in the backyard. For some reason I'm somewhat scared that the dream would end abruptly, but I keep rubbing my hands as I walk to the garden and I understand that it's not going to happen.

The backyard is very different than IRL; it looks much better, really. There's a wooden patio that goes from one big surrounding concrete wall to another, taking up about a third of the garden. About halfway through the garden, the patio rounds up into a small passage just big enough to walk onto, which leads to a bigger wooden area surrounded by small rose-looking plants. Onto that wooden area are people walking around a buffet, most of them sitting on the ground around small tablecloths. There are small rocks dug into the earth forming some paths to the wooden area, too.

Rubbing my hands together, increasing my lucidity, I walk into the wooden way to the buffet area, but I stop halfway. I remember that my main goal that I set up IRL was the moon rock TotM, and that I wanted to crash the moon into the earth. Problem is I really don't want to ruin a great scenery like that.
I'll just do another TotM.
I remember that one was to go fishing. So, I walk towards the edge of the buffet area, expecting a pond there. Before I reach the edge though, I hear that there is some music. I remembered it just before I wrote this dream but I forgot it... Damn. Thinking about the "perform a IRL hobby" task, I throw a few dance moves which really just consist of me holding my hands up in the air and swinging my butt from one side to another. I realize that I'm really not a big fan of dancing IRL and that I should do something that actually is a hobby or mine, tricking.
I stop dancing and throw a flip. Cheat Gainer for those of you who care
I rub my hands together.
Right, TotM.
I walk to the edge of the buffet and off course, I find a pond there. I pull a string out of my pocket and throw most of it in the pond, no bait or anything. When I pull it back, I find a small fish attached to it. Upon further examination I see that it's actually a miniature version of one of those prehistoric whales, with the tiny teeth and all. I toss it back into the pond.

As I stand back up I do a quick RC, counting my fingers without even looking at them, just kind of moving each one of them one at a time; I count six. I rub my hands together and think about my 3 step tasks. I sit down on a empty spot around the rectangular tablecloth. Facing me is... Faye Reagan (please don't look her up). I hear a man talking over a microphone, he's announcing the start of some kind of dancing contest between two girls. Super exited, the 14 to 16 year olds start twerking . Faye stands up to join them but I pull her back, down, randomly kissing her as I do so... But when I pull back I realize that she transformed into Hitler
I'm half horrified because I just kissed Hitler, half curious because Hitler is probably a very symbolic character.
Back to my goals.
Next on my list is to ask a DC for advise. I do so and he answers that I should "take control," which is the same answer I had from a different DC about 2 weeks ago. I'm mentally formulating my next question; I want to have a deeper conversation with him. But before I can actually ask him, I'm woken up by my cat who was playing just outside my room.

I try to DEILD but in vain: I have to battle with my dog sleeping over my leg, apparently having a dream where she's running, with the cat who's having lots of fun, and with a stupid bird who decided that 5 am was a good time to sing.

Last night - and this morning had many NL dreams .I did wbtb around 4am - 5 and settled down for WILD ... during the process of falling asleep and as I got closer to wake up time I had various dreams where there was a strong buzzing in the dream and a weird feeling in my face and body - almost like it was morphing or shape shifting - this is something I am coming to recognise now from a few dreams as a sign - I am starting to see it is my self becoming more and more aware of the fact i am dreaming - the buzzing and change of feeling are part of a new intenseness that accompanies the realisation of " I am dreaming " I think - when ones does become lucid. I am hopeful that I am starting to notice this more and more which will result in more Dilds and Wilds

I was with a group of guys and girls and we were in New York City. We were doing something illegal (forgot what) and the cops started chasing us. We started driving away in a car, and we went through NYC to the Queens Bridge (which doesn't exist irl). It sort of looked like another bridge I know about. Eventually, we lose the cops mostly, and have to walk on foot to avoid them. We soon lose them and have to go to a hotel to sleep for the night. We all go to a hotel, and start preparing for sleep. Two girls want to sleep together, as they find out that they love each other. One of them said, "this just shows the grape vines between us," about how they were together today realizing their love. They sleep together in a room, while the rest of us sleep on 3 other beds in the hotel. I was trying to decide where to sleep, also thinking I'd end up having sex with whoever was in the bed, and ended up with a bed with a guy in it. Went to sleep and woke up irl.

A long dream:

The servers were failing and everyone was told to do backups of all their work, especially recent work, because the servers were about to crash.

I was a journalist and rather famous in my dream, known under a pen name only though. I worked in a small town which may have been Bloomington, Indiana.

There was an important crisis going on, and it was not the servers failing, but I don't know what it was. I had to spread word of it in person because of the failing servers. So I had to reveal my pen name which would open doors for me.

I got to a farm house or anyway a remote house. And there found myself ambushed against a fence by a skunk. I tried to move as little as possible to not cause the skunk to spray. Though I started out facing the skunk I was then facing the house, and I felt the skunk nibbling on me from the back.

A woman came out of the house. I explained who I was. She explained that the skunk was a pet, one of several.

23/8/2015.


I can feel myself rocking so go with it and exaggerate it, I tip myself over, falling onto my front and feel as if I'm laying facedown somewhere.
After a few moments I can see my hands and I'm in!


I'm in my kitchen, it's very washed out though so I keep saying clarity, make it more vivid and stuff like that but I can't get it to look better.
I wrap a plastic bag I pick up from the side around my thumb trying to really feel it to help the Dream develop and it does get much clearer.

I'm in my kitchen so walk out the front door, I'm trying to take the bag off but it's wrapped really tightly and when I try to pull it hard, I feel my real body trying to move so I stop.
I leave the bag on and walk towards the bollards, when I get to them I look at them to see how much detail there is and I can see the concrete flaking and it looks perfect.
I look to the sky which is bright and blue, it's daytime and then I see a shooting star.
I imagine more and some more come so I imagine a huge meteor arc across the sky but only another small one does, still looks cool though.

I think ok let's go to the Stargate and try and get to Rome again so I go behind the flats, as I do I pass some bright red flowers, I grab them and smell them but they don't smell very strong so I discard them.
As I round the flats it's a little different than usual and because of this the Stargate isn't there, I walk up to it anyway thinking of Rome and walk through.
I'm now standing in a small pit but still behind the flats, it feels a little different though so I float out of the pit and walk out between the houses.
Before I can see where I am the Dream fades.


I come back round still Lucid in a room with no ceiling and walls made from irregular large stones, all painted or stained yellow.
It looks like some ancient setting (not Rome though) and I walk out into a much larger expanse.
Most of the large stones making up the walls have patruding Human faces carved onto them and the floor is made up of large square(ish) slabs coloured a more dark brown, they are painted with cool looking designs on each of them.

I walk towards what looks like the front of the building and can see from the distant landscape that I'm pretty high up.
There's a big opening in the walls and some steps going down, not very far down onto another big open area.
As I approach the stairs I see two big bowls of brown liquid, it looks like whiskey and I think about tasting it to see but then think maybe not.
I call out asking if anyone's there but get no response, so I walk down the stairs and start making my way across this long section towards the edge.

I can see there's a small wall at the end of this section I'm walking along, only about 4 feet high or so but it's blocking my view as I'm still a ways from it.
What I can see though in the distance is thick black smoke coming from the top of what looks like a Myan temple or pyramid of some kind.
I can also see an American type landscape with big sand coloured cliffs jolting up into the sky with flat tops (like you see in Westerns).
The sky is also quite sandy coloured, a mixture of yellows and reds blending together as the sun tries to shine through.

All of a sudden the black smoke drifts closer to me and as it does, I see it's actually made up of thousands of bees!
Thousands of them fly straight towards my face so I imagine an invisible protective shield around me and they all start hitting into it about 2 feet from me.
I call out again if anybody's there and this time hear a voice coming from behind me in the building I'd just come from but as I look back, can see no one.

I continue walking towards the edge but the bees are building up on my shield so much that it's hard to see, I'm just about to use a blast of energy to get rid of them but I lose the Dream and wake up.


Washed out at first but nice and vivid after the bag thing.
Complete waking memory and control over actions.
Lasted about 5/8 mins.

Day 4:

Nothing

Day 5:

Dream 1: I was so hungry and checked the fridge several times in what FELT like an hour or half an hour interval each time. No food

Dream 2: I was chatting with my friend and he told me that ppl work there (australia) from 12 till 7 only, and i was like "lucky!!"

Dream 3: I was at my dad's. but in a weird home, and my mom came in and started making fun of him. It was a very weird face. I was chocked bcz she's not supposed to be there plus she can't see him. Then I told here i had supermarket coupuns and asked her if she wanted them, she told me yes ( in the kitchen, she just came from the grocery store and was putting the stuff there).

Dream 4: I was making a remix of a song using fl. Yup, just spent the dream making it. I can still remember the EQ and stuff too. Man I wish I could remember how i set it though XD. OMG yeah that is a nice thing to practice for recall! Remember the presets you set for programs! Helps remember more details.

Dream 5: I was with my mom in the living room, and a beautiful orchestral song showed up that was very similar to my vocaloid orchestral song i did a couple weeks ago. I was shocked how close it was.

Dream 6: I was at my cousin's summer house, and he has a bit of a slope there that i oddly had a very very hard time climbing. I was kinda embarased. I then walked into a college there (there isn't one there irl), but the security guard was telling me i can't be there and was poking me with a metal ball attached to the security fence thingy in a playful way. It was very vivid! It was nighttime. I swear i really love how my mind creates nighttimes.

Day 6:

Dream 1: I was making boiled potatoes, and then my bro started peeling his heel's skin, and it peeled likea boiled potato, and i was like "eww get your foot off my potatoes!!! I can't eat that now!!!" lol

Dream 2: I started my laptop and my bluetooth mouse worked!! It wasn't working yesterday.

Dream 3:at school, preparing for finals, then a giant horse dog monster thing showed up, but was very friendly, then my friend held me up and jumped onto a table breaking it, and we both broke into laughter XD. Very vivid dream.

First dream

It was cold, dark evening. I was wearing a gray suit and holding a black briefcase in my left hand. I had also a Ruger pistol. There were two other people with me - both wearing black suits, armed to teeth with weaponry. We were walking straight the road, surrounded by nothing but fields.

After a while we saw a house in the horizon - it was our destination. We entered the house after a good whie. There were two couches and a table in the middle of the room. There were members of local mafia, waiting for us. I left the briefcase on the table, and they told me that the money is already on my bank account.

Suddenly we heard screams of mad people. The mafia escaped using backdoor, and closed it. I quickly changed my clothes, and jumped out of window, leaving my companions there. I went back the road, and then I met an angry crowd with pitchforks and torches. They asked "Friend or enemy?" I said "Friend." and they believed me, so I could go on.

False awakening

I woke up in my house, went out of bed and entered the kitchen. There was my mother, cooking something. I told her about my previous dream.

Second dream

I was in my house. It was some kind of holiday, and all my family gathered in home. I took my laptop, and then with siblings we found ourselves in a different world. The whole nature in the place we fond ourselves was dead and the soil was barren. We had rifles with us, and we went somewhere.

Third dream

Warm afternoon. I was walking down the hills, looking at the beaty of nature surrounding me. Finally I reached my destination - a harbor city on a tropical sea. When I entered docks it was evening already, so I stopped in a tavern of some kind. Next day I went sightseeing. The city was old, built with light brown stone bricks and exotic wood.

The streets were full of cars and people. I looked for some interesting places, but it was too slow on foot, so I took a motorcycle. I drove for a while in the city centre, around tall buildings. Suddenly, we heard alarms, and the city was under terrorist siege.

There were archers on a rooftops, shooting down everyone who they can see. I was driving slowly, watching as crowds of people die. When they started to shoot at me, I started to drive quicker, so they used firearms to take me down.

They shot a tire in my motorcycle, so I had to run away from them. I found a gun on the ground, so I took it and tried to shoot terrorists, but I missed all the time. I escaped from them to a back yard of train station. There was a truck placed on a ramp. I wanted to enter it, but I saw that doors were blocked by a grate.

I looked around, and saw another ramp. There was a balloon on the ramp, so I took it and started to fly. I was high above the city, when I used all of the fuel, so I had to land. I landed somewhat close to the city centre, and went to the streets.

Terrorists stopped attacking people, so it was all quiet there.... too quiet. Suddenly the sun disappeared, and everything went black. After a while it was back, but something changed. All the dead people started to stand up from the ground, and shamble in random directions. Some of them were slow, but most of them were quickly running zombies.

I ran away from the swarmed streets, to the tavern in docks. There was a group of survivors, waiting for someone. I told them what's going on in the streets, and they told me that they need to reach top of a skyscraper to escape, and needed a distraction for zombies.

I agreed, and ran for the streets. Followed by swarm, I climbed up roofs and escaped from them, while group of survivors entered skyscraper, reached the roof and taken a helicopter. They have flewn back for me, and we escaped.

+(f) DO flyover of 2-3 flutists playing on an exposed ledge in a (destroyed castle?), they're covered in flour/dust (and a cloud of it puffs up when they play?)

+(f) talking to a group of cute girls in passing, I stop and ask them how old they are

+(f) the late-teen tall beautiful middle-eastern girl confidently takes to the stage, several middle-eastern men huddle and watch backstage and bid on her to be their wife(?), one guy 1000, one guy 100 (clearly not enough)

+(f) snowy celebration, so happy to be there among the holiday decorations, sad for people who do not like this time, (check the time on the clock tower?)

+ two characters, a boy and a girl, are running from us, they turn invisible. We bring in the detectors which are strung on two parallel wires at about chest level which extend through the scene from left to right, and another parallel wire above the head, the detectors are little square objects (lights?), we'll see those two now, I look around and see them moving around a large open area, predator-effect of body-shaped distortion of the surroundings, when they stand still they're harder to see, the girl becomes visible briefly at one point while I'm looking at her, they seem like anime characters, the guy is Sensei(?), why's he running from me?

+ the guy is holding the platform as a challenge for his bride, more and more people pile on to it to make it harder, heavier and unbalanced, but he holds it and balances it, at first I think he's beneath it holding it on his back, but late I see him on top holding it up with a rope in the middle, the judge rules he has satisfied all requirements

+(f) helping the boy put on his ski boots, there are many clasps, laces, and snaps, some which don't quite work right

Ritual: I went to bed around midnight, but the knowledge that I had to wake up earlier than usual this morning, at 7am, created a subtle anxiety that woke me up at 4:30am and made it hard to sleep afterwards. The natural insomnia created good conditions for lucidity, and I woke up at 6:30am after this dream.

DILD: Since I was lying in bed mostly awake for a couple hours, I had already gotten up several times to use the bathroom. This seemed like another one of those times, but an odd detail caught my eye. There was a steel mesh frame surrounding the toilet paper roll and someone had left a lot of used cotton balls in it. They were stained on one side with a color like Betadine. I assumed my husband must have left them there, and wondered what he had been using them for.

On some level I suspected that there was something wrong with this scenario and decided to RC. I braced one hand on the bathroom counter and the other on the towel rack, and tried to lift myself. My body lifted effortlessly off the ground with no real muscular exertion, which made me suspect I must be dreaming. (The fact that the bathroom did not correspond to its WL layout was something I failed to notice, as usual.) I checked again, with the same results, and then to be sure, I tried the same stunt without using my arms at all—that is, levitating. Upon levitating successfully, I was confident that this was the dream state.

It's so gratifying to get unintentional LDs! But one isn't always prepared with a task. I felt an impulse to go outside, so I went back out to the bedroom and quickly exited through the screen door. Immediately I noticed a destabilization of my vision. Experience reminded me not to fret, just relax and let images suggest themselves, the problem should straighten itself out. Sure enough, a moment later I started to notice colors, then the colors organized themselves into geometry, and before long they had resolved into a new scene: I was looking at a large stack of different colored shipping containers.

I realized that the deck I was standing on overlooked a great harbor. There was water on all sides, and my house was apparently on some tall island in the middle. I was surprised by the number of ships that I could see moving to and fro. They came in all sizes, everything from large cargo ships to little tugboats, all looking very industrious. There were so many ships that I wondered if the place I was in lacked air transport entirely: I didn't see any planes flying at first, but a moment later, perhaps summoned by my thoughts, a helicopter veered very close overhead.

I decided that I should do something useful as long as I was in the dream state, and tried to remember this month's tasks. Eating a moon rock leaped to mind. Okay, how should I do that? I didn't feel like shifting scenes just yet, actually traveling to outer space. I thought, well, maybe a rocket could land nearby and an astronaut could get out and present me with the moon rock. It sounded like a good strategy but I was not strongly motivated to try it, so I tabled the idea.

As I was contemplating the possibilities, I heard music from nearby, and noticed a miniature stage on one edge of the deck. This reminded me of one of the other TOTMs, attending a concert. Well, here are some creatures playing music in public, that might count. I call them "creatures" because the music was being played by what looked like muppets, only a foot or two in height. The initial music sounded like a piano, and a female muppet was playing it, but her fingers were moving over a clear plastic stand, with no visible keys. I thought she resembled what I can only describe as the "hippie girl muppet," but googling that now, it seems to be a good search term and reveals that the name of the muppet in question (in WL, anyway) was "Janice."

After her piano solo ended, a male muppet to her right began playing guitar. This muppet resembled Fozzie Bear, and and was singing as he played. I listened closely to the lyrics and did my best to remember them. As usual in deep dream, I was impressed how easily the rhymes came—though of course on waking, it was hard to remember the lyrics clearly.

The first rhyme involved the phrase "...how we live," which later rhymed with "...give." There was another stanza that I couldn't remember at all by the time I was writing my report. I have a slightly clearer memory of the third stanza, apart from the absent first line:

...
...and I'll let you do the rest,
Because you know Amos and Andy
And can put them to the test."

After that, the muppet went into a refrain of:

Can you help me?
Stranger, can you help me?

The lines may sound plaintive in plain text, but they were a little more jazzy the way they were sung. I was listening to the song and smiling down fondly at the muppet. I felt that "Amos and Andy" was a phrase I had heard before... was it related to cookies? Or an old TV show? I was certainly willing to offer help, if it was needed, but a moment later I woke up.

Note: Googling now, I see that "Amos and Andy" was originally a radio show in the 1920s, later moved to television, and lasted until the 1950s. I have no idea why my subconcious dredged this up! I must have thought of cookies because of the similarity to the brand name "Famous Amos."

{ So I arrive at Star Island by a WILD } I get to the Island and plan on meeting some of my friends that I used to LD with back in the day. I look around the island and its pretty small; a couple of palm trees, a pink ocean, light brown sand, and volcano.

I want to expand Star Island, but at the time I was more focused on finding my old pals. I had to create a way to travel to my friends location, so I used some Dream Magic to create a portal to my friend Zeta's house. I arrive at his place and I see him on top of his roof.

" HEY MAGE! " he yelled as he waved his hands. I walk over and climb up the side of his house and get on to the roof with Zeta. " Yo Zeta whats up? long time no see friend " I hug him and then I look at his face. I see a face of worry and I ask " hey man you ok? "

" Yea man, I was just thinking about somethin- it's nothing really... " He then went in his pocket and took out a cigarette. " Hey man you got a light? " he asked " Nope. " I say ( I dislike cigarettes ). I then ask " you do know you're dreaming right? " " Maybe?... Idk anymore kid, I'm to old for that kinda stuff " he said as he blows smoke im my face. I wave the smoke out of my face and say " C'mon man! don't you know that stuff is bad for you? "

" hmm?- haha so what brings you here? " " I want to get the team back together again, like old times. " he looks out at his neighborhood and puffs out a cloud a smoke a sighs " I told you Mage I'm to old for that stuff now, It was fun wile it lasted." I shook my head in disappointment and said " man you're never too old for fun... well if you ever change your mind I made a new place called Star Island. " I gave him a map so he could find it.

I got up and looked at him, he was still gazing out at the houses in deep thought. " Ok man I'm going back to my place. " I then made a portal and as soon as I made it Zeta got up and said " WOA DUDE WHAT THE HELL? HOW DID YOU JUST-" " Your dreaming fool. " I said. He then looked at his hands and looked at me and disappeared ( that means the person wakes up ) I then walk into my portal and arrive back on my island.

I plan on just doing my own thing: working on my dream magic, working on building star island into an actual World, and working on getting Team muffin back in action. I look at my hands and shoot a purple chi blast out and it hits a palm tree and sets it on fire. I then create a wizard type Robe with a hood and create amethyst crystal staff. I point my staff down at the sand and create a giant sand castle and walk in the castle. I shape the castle so it has 4 rooms and one bedroom for me. The inside of the castle is not sand like rather its like an actual castle I decorate my bedroom how I imaged it in waking life

When I adventured with my friends back in the day, we all had code names and mine was " Mage Cat" Because I was the Wizard of the group and I had a Cat head. I morph my head into a cats head I AM MAGE CAT!

First dream recorded NL - about being a LDer and getting very clear instructions from an expert tutor on how to go about it - very nice as I was being totally taken on as a good student who was top of the class having every ability to be a great LDer, I felt great -
I did wbtb around 3-4am and listened to some binaural beats to sharpen my mind as I felt very tired - may have worked!

Sat up for reluctant wbtb at 3 am and had a Late morning LD decided to lay on my left side (around 4.20 am)as I was now very awake and felt I needed to change my sleeping position and see what happens ( I usually attempt wild on my back) I knew I would fall asleep quite quickly on my side tho so I did my best to keep mind clear and repeat mantra

"I am Lucid tonight " and " I know I am dreaming"

At 5.54 am I woke to put this one in voice recorder
- got a couple of short Lucids on my side! The first was a propper false awakening where it was the first time I have Actually realised I was dreaming as I lay there on my side in my bed - ha ha it felt great ! Having the awareness to bring my hands up to look at them ' great I am dreaming'! I sat up! And said 'I am Lucid ' - but Then I laid back down ... then I sat up again and went running into my mums room laughing ( my mum doesn't live here so I had quickly become non lucid ;( ...I then went back to bed and very soon realised again as I lay on my side "hay - I was actually dreaming again!"- I looked at my hands again - yes! " I am still dreaming " I said. This made me very happy and I got up easily from my bed and wandered out of the house - I tried to remember some tasks as I made my way out. The scenery was a bit grey so I feel it would have been good if I had taken time here to stabilise by rubbing my hands together or saying some mantras - so I think dream ability was pretty weak. A DC got in my way and un-nerved me a bit ; I didn't-want to get distracted so I managed to brush passed him - once outside I decided I wanted to climb to the top of a high rise building and jump off to test my Lucidity - ha ha - lucidity was low tho coz - as I tried to jump and climb up the side of a building I kept falling back down, no super power! Finally woke up knowing I have lots and lots to learn great experience!
