Lost all the detail of this dream, I just remember a pattern of pushing back and forth with something, not physically, but with our attention. I suspect it was a shared dream and I was fighting someone. I say that because of the back and forth pattern. For some reason dream fights against other dreamers seem to develop the pace of a tennis match, with the ball going from one side of the court to the other until someone scores.

When you attack in a shared dream, you are trying to hook your opponent's attention. What happens is you send something at your opponent, and they either ignore it, deal with it, or succumb to it. If they don't succumb, then they send something at you. It goes back and forth until something until someone finally believes of the the incoming "gambits" is real and it overwhelms them. There's a chance that may be a pattern that just happens with me, but I'm fairly sure it's a strange attractor that will hold true for any two people fighting in a dream. (and by fighting, I don't necessarily mean physical fighing).

That's the second or third dream like that I've had this week. Not sure who it could have been. I've always had an open invitation for anyone to come find my in my dreams. Plus I've also been having what I think might be shared dreams with one of my prodigal dream control students. We both only half remember these dreams, but the pattern of me demonstrating something, then making him do it, then me, then him, over and over, drilling him with repetition, that's an easy one to spot.

It's weird, I haven't had any shared dreams in years, and then I run into Waking Nomad online last week, and now I'm having them almost every night.

Really need to work on improving my recall. Had an awesome sword fighting dream during a nap yesterday, and I forgot all the detail.

tons of wakings via intention. Nothing at first and felt very tired throughout the night, a bit frustrated, but at some point the dreams started flowing in. Didn't try to repeat (mental journaling) recall, but just went right back to sleep each time with a brief mantra. One longer BTS success that led to some nice late NLDs: funny/sexy, vivid/present

Adding more notes but Im short of time so it's just more detail not into coherent prose.

+ fight off a mountain lion in a (hospital?) room with a stool, jab at it several times, keep the stool between me and the lion, maneuver it to the door of room, guy in way, "Clear the door!" guy still in way at front door, push lion out, try to pull door shot, little tiny toy living dog in way, pull door closed.

+ bus, guy gets off on Gr.Pe.Blvd. at Ma. Str (steep), girl bent knee, do "broken egg" o n her knee, see sailboat at top of Mar, buyers speaking of bad investment due to seller's undisclosed $75 million massive swimming pool debt, I show pools, fly over pools, look down, they're impressive but empty, second set, also no water, to left is outdoor roofless army squash courts, they're practicing services in unison. In near court meet scary lesbian, my team insignia ripped clothing with three vertical stripes (like monster energy drink), this insignia is in clothing and on buildings, we must scatter to run away (from something?), girl writes letter, I read it for a while, I'm looking for my name I think she wrote something about me as I'm not quite a core member, don't see my name, I generally have no trouble reading at the bottom it says "I won't eat <???>[forgot] and squirrels, … I won't go to Un. Lake", letter posted in clubhouse on the wall along with bunch of other things, glued to wall, like a large phone booth or a very small shed.

+ outside crowded sidewalk (like West end of Sol. Ave in B) I go on a ladder, view is great, on left sidewalk woman lies, (pee/booze pouring down street) nobody helps, it's because she's drunk, her drunk companion is there, they have a cat, poor cat, it escapes and runs away to the right and I'm happy, workman comes (I think he asks me to get down) so I climb down, tell wife "man the view was great up there!", realize no shoes, see my white sneakers a few meters away at base of ladder, tip-toe back don't want socks get dirty/wet, will someone take my shoes? Pick them up.

BTS

+ lunch in the cafe with colleague sitting across from me, it's Ch. Og. from Bl. We're silent for a long time, it's a small round cafe table, outdoors, the next table to the right is very very close the guy on my side is practically shoulder to shoulder with me, to make conversation I ask CO "What've you been working on lately?" Young guy (stranger) at next table (very close) answers me mistakenly, starts talking about some business thing he does, I look over at him, see his face, dark hair, he gets embarrassed when he realized I wasn't talking to him, I say "That's OK, I'm closer to you than to my friend across from me, it makes sense." Then I take a small bunch of his french fries from his plate and eat them "because we're friends now!" with a wry smile on my face the whole time, I think I should give him some of my food, look at my plate all I see is more french fries; return to work, think that it wasn't all that far to the restaurant, tell a colleague (Ol. Sem. from Lx) that the restaurant isn't farther from our other place of work where (he still is)?, he disagrees, I think more it's just a couple of blocks in either case.

Spoiler for erotic themes, explicit :

+ (stripper class?) In huge bed under sheets with colleagues, we're spread out lying on our backs looking up a few feet away from each other, teacher does stuff?, hot petite girl, a (work?) acquaintance [false] comes on to me and lies on my right. I take off underwear getting naked under sheets for the class, girl snuggles up next to me she's really coming on to me, her hand reaches under sheets and runs it from my stomach down towards (ahem), I say "careful, there, you're likely to get a surprise!" because she doesn't know I took off my underwear, I sit up on edge of bed to put it back on so as not to be gross, but she says from behind me "No, I want a Real Man!" I pause a second and then get back in, say "OK!" turn to her, we embrace and kiss, I do an awesome kiss move: holding her lower lip firmly between my lips, I lean my head 90 degrees slowly to the left, so that our lips twist and drag on each other, it's fantastic. I say "Did that feel good?" She says "Mmm Hmm!" I say "I'm a good kisser…..you're a good kisser, too!" I look up and see people are staring at us [the situation is like two people in yoga class having sex all of a sudden], I keep looking and more and more people are staring, I say "everyone is looking!" . I run my hand down her tight, flat tummy and run a finger around her belly button. It's a bit crusty/hard around the edges.

walking through rooms, I think the 4:30 stripper class may be in session, the teacher may not want me based on what happened last time

+ a 3D billboard: the message speeds through space up to the board (whoa that's cool [and dreamlike?]), it's for an alcoholic drink, guy with heavy Eastern European accent says "Coff-ee braaaayyyyk", the ad promotes adding whiskey to coffee?, discussion of cocktail better than this with some ingredients listed (forgot), open door, see wife in next room through crack in door, enter room, desert table with ice cream, cherry pie, something else, is it free?, I'm looking for evidence of payment on the counter in front of her, I want the cherry pie, but woman offers me ice cream and hands it to me, I take it, there's a scoop of raspberry-red colored ice cream in a dish.

Daytime/Afternoon and night. I and some others are literally jumping from island to island in some kind of world/planet. The place has lighter gravity than earth, and we (three of us) were always being blown away when the winds are strong. We were in the forests and other places. We were avoiding meeting other residents of the planet. I think they're aggressive.

Morning. I was in a dorm of some kind. There were a lot of beds in one room that is shared. My name was there. I thought that it was a place rented by our company for us, but I didn't get to use the place since I have my own place. I thought it's a good backup plan though. I checked the bathroom, I think.

Night. I was outside a hotel. I was ordering food. For some reason, they gave me a slip, maybe to pay it later. I was planning to pay it on the spot, but oh well.

I went inside the bathroom. It was very small.

---

- Slept at around 2 p.m.
- Woke up at around 4:17 p.m.
- Very tired.
- No alarm
- I'm thinking of the rent-to-own units sometime during the day

A few days ago I had a lucid about me finding the lost parts of myself and piecing them back together to save my family. To create this kind of superman to defeat all evils. It bothered me a little that I thought of myself as able to do that. Ahh well.

3.29.15

Last night bed 9pmish - 3:30am

Woke up at 11pm with this:

I'm standing on my mom's kitchen balcony. Somebody is showing me a person standing on a flood barrier that's to the right, about 60 meters from the house. It's a man holding some small device that I can't see but I think it looks like a walkie-talkie. Someone tells me "do you see the antenna?" And yes, I do see a 7 inch black plastic antena sticking out of the device.

I understand, that they are controlling us with that. As I look to the left on the barrier, I suddenly see lots of people sitting there on benches, all with devices. I can tell it's something sinister and I don't like it. I grab my air rifle and head out to the barrier. Small kid walks up to me trying to stop me and I push him away. His dad comes rushing and he tries to hit me, but other "normal" people there stop him. I put my fists up and invite him to figth me. He is a huge guy, and I wanna kick his ass so bad.

Now we are having a dinner party and there is a cloth hanging on the wall and on the balcony. I suggested earlier to put up aluminum foil to shield us from the controlling waves, but I was told that would not work.

Art Obsession

Spent most of the day yesterday doing digital art, and spent most of the night dreaming about doing the same. Been having lots of dreams like this over the past couple of months, and I think it's really helped improve my art. I don't wake up with any "Ah-ha!" moments, but I must be gaining experience, because my work has improved dramatically.

I think it was about 9am when I had this, it was pretty short but still pretty awesome!

I am walking around town aimlessly, looking around at the bright shop displays and colourful fronts. It's quite busy, which is perhaps surprising given the weather - grey and wet, as is custom in the UK. As I am absent-mindedly walking about, I notice that a man has been following me for quite a while. Realising this, I shake him off by taking winding streets and getting away from the city centre. I end up walking up some stone stairs, which lead to a beautiful building whose architecture reminds me of a cathedral. Looking around, I see that I am surrounded by these. By now, the sun is out and warming my skin pleasantly. I take my IPod out and reach for my headphones in my bag. Seeing them, a thought occurs to me; I shouldn't have my headphones seeing as earlier that morning, my best friend had let me know that she had taken them (this was real). This prompts me to lucidity, and I check my hands over to confirm my suspicion. Sure enough, although my left hand is normal, my right hand has an extra finger. I am now completely certain of the fact that I am in a dream, and begin to take in my surroundings properly. I run my hands over the stone buildings, appreciating the texture. Satisfied, I concentrate on my LD goal.

(In a particularly striking dream which I had over 3 years ago, I lived in a beautiful villa in the South of Spain. My aim is not only to revisit this villa, but to establish it as my LD HQ.)

Closing my eyes, I concentrate on this house as hard as I can, hoping to teleport there. This approach fails however, and so I set out to find a door. I am hoping that if I truly believe that beyond it lies the house, I can use this to get to it. Before I can find a door however, I am woken up.

It might be small, but still, success!

I am going through a doorway following two ladies and the second one tells me that the other girl in our group is out in the waiting room. I ask, "Tina?" and the girl's face starts to disappear. I immediately realize what's going on and say,

"Hey, we're dreaming" and I remember my LD goal and think I need to see Jackson Galaxy and then I see triangles and shapes and things start disappearing and then I wake up.

I'm excited I remembered one of my goals but I wish I'd remembered to try to stabilize the dream...hopefully next time.

I am driving a car and the boss's wife is in the car next to me with the boss driving and his wife is standing up in their convertible and I'm supposed to do that but I think it's stupid and dangerous (while the car is driving down the highway) and I won't do it.

My husband and I are trying to get away (from what I have no idea) and we're running behind houses. There's a helicopter with lights chasing us. My husband gets caught and I watch where he goes and I run to get help. I hug a lady I used to work with and another old friend is there but they don't seem to be moving or doing anything to help us. I see a HUGE, beautiful snowy owl on a front porch. It was so beautiful I stopped for a moment to admire it. He was at least 3' x 3' and filled up the small porch. I was starting to contemplate the massive size but as I was considering this I knew I had to leave to help my husband.

1st dream.
I am on a green field with some white flowers. There were two groups of people.
1st group were 2 people who walked around at the white flowers with a air blower or something like a can of air. And blew air on the white flowers. It was like there came something out of the flowers almost like bubbles.
Not that far away from them were there 2 others (group 2) in front of their car. They looked over at the 1st group, and they looked kinda shocked.. They went a little closer to the first group and told them that the white flowers were very toxic, and their life were in danger..

2nd dream.
I was out biking with my dad, and my back started to be very sore and hurt a lot. Suddenly I was on the ground and I couldnt move. It turned black.. Colors and things came back and I now were at a hospital, I was told I needed to rest because of my back.
My stepmother and stepsister were there to visit me, and I could tell my stepsister was worried about me.
I were in doubt and kinda thought "My back doesnt hurt that bad?".. "Did I pretend and fake it all?"
It was like they knew what I was thinking, cause they said "You can go home now".

3th.
I also remember being at my grandfather and grandmothers house, but not what I did there. Just that I walked a little in their living room but thats it.

Spoiler for Danish:

Grønt område med nogle hvide blomster agtige ting der var rimelig lange. Der var to mennesker der gik rundt ved dem selvom det rigtig var et afspærret område, lidt væk fra holdt der en bil og der var nogle andre der gik rundt der.
De første gik med sådan blæse dims sådan at der kom noget sjovt ud af de hvide blomster..
Det var ikke alle de hvide blomster hvor der kom noget hvid sjov fra.
De andre kom over til de to her og forklarede at de blomster var utroligt giftige...

Rigtig ondt i ryggen. Jeg var vidst ude at cykle med far. Jeg. Kunne åbenbart ikke klare det så jeg endt med at vælte og så lå jeg og kiggede på cyklen..
Pludselig vågnede jeg ved et sygehus.
Hvor jeg skulle hvile min ryg.
Men det troede vidst ikke på at jeg havde ondt i ryggen, så de udskrev mig for tidligt.

Jeg var vidst henne ved farmor og farfar (i deres gamle hus). Jeg huske ikke så meget hvad der skete der, bare at jeg var der.

Very vivid, present dreams. Mental journaling so details have faded, but definitely "I was there" all night long

+ Objects are flying in the air, come indoors, TZ is there, candies on floor, wife takes them away

+ I hear music, I "recognize" the piece, I'm discussing it with some guys, I always have trouble remembering the composer of this piece. I'm working really hard to remember it. Argh, my son played this piece on the piano, who is the composer? "B….B….B…B… Bar….BARTOK! Bartok." [IWL: the piece I remembered wasn't the one I heard, but for the piece I was thinking of I did remember the correct composer finally]

+(f) Walking along outdoor elevated walkways, I hear a muslim say: "Not all sharia law is the same", and some other things (forgot).

+ I'm in a scientific laboratory. There are two pieces of equipment that I'm inspecting. One on the wall a bit farther on, and one under a hood right next to me. There are parts that are moving quickly in the mechanism. The main moving part is the japanese hand-prayer drum from Karate-kid II.



I ask what this is. The woman scientist answers "it's a timer, a 777 timer". I see under the hood an open metallic sphere, I see and know it contains mercury. I don't want that stuff getting on me so if they carry it anywhere I plan to step back.

Discussing scientific instruments (built from the karate-kid #2 japanese hand-twisty-prayer-drum thing) with scientist woman, I'm leery of the sphere containing mercury

+ super present/vivid: I'm on the lower floors of a house. I'm in some sort of shower/bathroom, I think there must be another one on the upper floors. There's a big fluffy white dog walking around. I go out to the front of the house. I go back in and say "I'm going to look around the upstairs."

I start climbing the stairs and see two small green teacups, the kind we have (IWL: and now use as a water bowl for our cat). Each one is full of water and on a different stair. I wonder if they use them for animals. Farther up the staircase on the left there is a fireplace. It is glowing warm, I go past it but see it in passing and return to it and give it a proper look: things are glowing red in there but there's no visible fire. I think this can heat the house, it's really interesting looking, in an alcove in the middle of the staircase.

On the landing I see a room ahead of me, a girl/woman is changing in there and I step back away, not wanting to embarass/intrude. There's some dialogue here that I forgot. I go through the room to another and sit on a couch. A woman there asks something about <my sister's name>.

Still suffering post-op problems (the hospital said at least 2 weeks of that and it's been 12 days so far) Nevertheless, I've managed to remember 2 dreams in the last 2 days.

The first was so numbingly uninteresting I won't bore you with the fine details...suffice to say I'm a student in a college/uni ?? (My grandson is) I don't seem to be a freshman but I mingle with a group of students (none of whom I apparently recognise.) The plot then revolves around me stereotypically trying to find a way into the main hall, where I'm convinced the rest are assembled. (DS Looking for something and/or lost.)

The up side of course is it would just need me to get back to reasonable awareness and there's Ed continually prompting me to recognise my main dream sign.

The other was a bit more interesting. I'm outdoors and there are 2 women in the distance...one with a pushchair. There's a profound air of menace about these two...evil maybe. (what's this Ed... "Mothers from Hell"?...and why???) I tell myself that I need to face this dream and I will banish my fears. (So I thought "dream"...am I inching towards LD again here?)

I move resolutely towards them, then loads of angels appear...they're clearly not real, just small metallic-looking figures and they're everywhere in the sky. Then the sky clears and the menace (and the demon moms) are no more. This is just not my style...If they'd been loads of Buddhist monks then maybe.

Admittedly I had a glasss of Faustino VII before I went to bed and the dream was at 01.30am (less than one hour later) I've said this before..a glass of wine does seem to pep up my early dreams so I must get down to Asda (it's on offer)

Talking of stimulants my son brought me the melatonin and, despite my still slightly delicate condition I risked one when I did a WBTB after the mum's dream. Result...nothing...zilch...bugger all...slept like a baby. When the time's right I'll try 2...and a Faustino chaser.

i was feeling a bit of anxiety as i was trying to fall asleep.When I felt myself drifting off and i started thinking of what might happen.The next thing i know I'm on a bed that isn't mine in a dark room. I thought i was still trying to fall asleep until something started hitting me.I prayed about how annoying it was to me to God for some reason.It stopped for a while and than I reappeared on the bed thinking i woke up. But it started to jump on my stomach even harder now.That's when i realized that i shouldn't have prayed about it since it was all just a dream.

I kept my eyes closed because the thing sort of scared me. It was a short transparent thing trying to go inside me. Telling me to let him in. I thought about how I was thinking of Eye before I went to bed and maybe this is why this dc appeared.I let it keep hitting me to see if t would stop but it did not. I sat up and everything was pitch black but i could still hear the voice."Open your eyes!" it told me. I said "No, I'm going to see with the eyes of a blind person."Than i tried grabbing the thing so it would stop annoying me.When i opened my eyes it looked like a scary black with white mask figure that was stretchy.

I closed my eyes again and everything was now dark. I reappeared on the bed i think. One more time. Than flew off somewhere. I was in a huge dark place where you could see building parts of a castle maybe. I saw a old lady through a small opening. She than turned out to be a witch and tried to pull me into a high place of where she was. I kicked her than flew away though. I flew through dark clouds for like 2 minutes thinking of where to go. I finally got the idea to go see Dawn so i flew with the intention. But i arrived at a room where the walls had a red light on them. The room was also dark so i left.

I flew past dark clouds than thought of going to my cousin's old apartment. I arrived there thinking about what if it changed into a OBE. So when i looked at myself i was in a transparent form. Not at all what i wanted. I started to fly past dark clouds again and thought how i would like a happy setting. Different from all the scary stuff I've already seen. So i imagined a beach and hoped Manei and Jade would be there. I started seeing a bright sky and white clouds than fell into the ocean. When i floated up i noticed Manei swimming on a floater thing and Jade was with her. There was a big round orange fish too. The size of a small beach ball.The only weird thing about it is that we all looked like we were made out of a stop motion clay animation. Even the ocean looked fake.

Manei turned to me than said "Oh, your here". I was like yeah than climbed on a orange boat that sort of looked like the one from the Zelda Wind Waker game.Except without the dragon's face. The big orange round fish wanted to go on too but i think either Manei or Jade pulled it away. As we started moving through the water i asked if it was okay for things to be like this. The way things looked was kind of weird. That is when the letters I.M.M popped up in front of my view. Than i woke up.


Beautiful Forest City River/Lake

I was inside a place that was supposedly the place where I work. The staff and kids were having a huge party and teachers began handing out cake,cookies with candy on it,chocolate chip cookies,sprinkle cookies. It was all looking so good.* w *) I tried grabbing a green paper plate and putting some snacks on it. But I decided to save it until i got home.I walked and encountered a girl I know at the workplace. For some reason she was trying to work with a guy to get rid of me and some people in the dream. I think I appeared in my bed after that and was actually in my older brother's room.

Something after that happened and I ended up watching some weird video of the girl chugging down a can of ravioli to impress the guy. She than burped and I felt weird about this. I felt this was somewhat a dream but i had to do something to stop the guy from doing something bad. So I went back to the place and tried to secretly do something.It led up to someone becoming tiny.Which i think was the guy. After that something else may have happened but i don't remember.

Woke up than went back to sleep.

I was inside my living room looking for snacks to eat on the table. A little kid who i assumed was the smaller version of a male cousin of mine, told me he wanted some snacks. I helped him pick up snacks but something was still bothering him I think. After that I went to look for my snacks i put away but could not find them in the fridge, or anywhere. I asked my sister,cousins and brothers but they said they haven't seen it. I got really mad. The two cousins of mine and my older brother were drinking Beer like my missing snacks was nothing. I took some of their beer and drank it annoyed even though I've never drank beer yet.

I than went to the fridge and saw money in the fridge."Who put money here!?My money!" I said thinking my brother put it in there."I didn't put that there" my brother said. I than closed the fridge and started to walk to my parent's bedroom."Yay!Lucidity!Think good thoughts so they don't come chasing after you." I thought to myself than went through the window. I than flew around and noticed that there were more brighter buildings clumped up in this area.I started to fly above the narrow place to the front of the house. My cousin N came out and I didn't want her to see me so i did my best to fly past her.

But when I did she saw me and said something about me being in trouble. I flew past through the maze of buildings than saw a old lady.She spoke to me about something, maybe candy starbursts but I flew away after that because I think she was trying to get in my way. As I was flying I started seeing the place became a huge ocean filled with boats.Than it started becoming more like a tropical city.Filled with beautiful bright green plants and trees. The houses seemed colorful too. Oh and there was still cars and streets in view. A girl caught my attention and told me to follow her. As we were flying/running she showed me a river that led to a huge lake in the city, She said something about how cool it was and that i should try going there.

I was so amazed. I ran and jumped from the rocks and started flying above the cool serene river than close to but above the lake. I felt so in tune with the place. I also saw a somewhat faded sailor moon on the river. I think she was battling a monster there. I didn't want it to end but than i reappeared back in the place where another girl was."I'm going to do that again!" I thought happily.But than i lost my train of thought and the girl asked me if i could write her number down on a brownish purple square thing that had little bumps like the connectors for kids have. She wanted me to get her number on it.

I told her okay and knelt on the floor. I pointed to in between the spaces and the girl said "3...2..."They slowly started to appear.But than a girl called me from behind and said that she would do it for her. I think it was the girl who showed me the lake. I told the girl that asked me to make the number appear that the other girl would help her. I than ran off and looked to the side noticing more greenery. There was a huge white hospital to my left in the distance.It had me thinking of how what if in a past life i died there or some other lady died there. It was just a random thought that came up. Than I started running while singing happily. I got the idea that i should write a song of singing in the rain so content. I could somewhat see the lake in the distance and was hoping to meet an interesting being/dc there but woke up.

DEFINITELY GOING BACK ANOTHER TIME!!!

Non-lucid
I was homeless, so at night I'd break into houses and sleep in people's guest rooms. Some nights they'd find me, and I'd normally have to hurriedly leave immediately after that. Sometimes when that'd happen, they would care for me.
I met many different people with different lifestyles: A pregnant lady with a huge pet snake, an eccentric lady with a huge house, and the list goes on.
One night, I creeped into a house, and went into a room with a closed door. A baby was soundly sleeping in a cradle, and I definitely wasn't going to change that. I turned around and saw a camera looking at me. I quietly, but quickly, went out the door, and looked down the stairs. A tall lady with wavy hair is watching TV and talking on the phone in the living room below me. Her back is to me. I panic, and hurry into the next room a little less than silently. I hear a muffled "Hold on, I-I heard something..." through the door. I crawl under the huge bed and hope she doesn't find me.
I hear the door open, and she's still on the phone. "I know I heard something." She whispered into it. I could very faintly hear the person she was talking to in the quiet room. "Someone's in here, I know it." She bends down and looks under the bed, to find me, curled up, staring at her, and terrified. She ends the call immediately, her mouth hanging open.
"Hey now," I whisper showing my hands to show her I have no weapons, "I don't want to hurt you or your baby... I just need a place to sleep. I promise that's it."
Then, I wake up.
