So far since I've started my dream journal I've noticed that I written down almost the same place in all of them. Some how according to what I wrote, I always end up in some kind of grass field no matter what I dream about Im at a field at some point in my dream. But I never notice I was there until I wake up; So I was wonder if this is some kind of thing I can use to tell if I am dreaming or is it just coincidence? Even in my last two LD's I was in a field but the grass was blue, it was kind of weird aha

I walk down a grassy hill and find a bunch of super heroes stretching and warming up for some kind of saving the world mission. They practice flying, and other super hero powers. Wishing to join them and help with this, I demonstrate my own abilities by jumping hundreds of feet into the air, and almost flying. My powers are not as well developed as theirs, and they don't let me join them for my own safety. At least not until I make more progress. They all fly away, quickly disappearing into the sky.

Standing in the street with a bunch of friends, we are all going to a skate park of sorts, but it is far away. They suggest I levitate to make the trip easier. I'm jump up in the air, and lay horizontally, levitating above the ground and slowly moving forwards through the air. I ask them how to go faster because I could walk this fast normally. One of my friends shows me that I can bang my fists together while holding them out in front of me to go faster. It works, but I only go a little faster. I keep doing it, and keep increasing speed, but only slightly.

A large crowd of people are walking in the street, and start tugging on me as I float past them. I think maybe they're jealous, so I stop levitating, and walk with them so they don't feel bad. They settle down when I do this, and we all walk together toward the skate park.

When we get there, it turns into a snow/ice version of a skate park, and I am on a snowboard. People look at me, expecting some fancy tricks. I realize I'm dreaming, and this seems fun, so I drop into a big half pipe type thing on my snow board.

Suddenly, the dream is in 3rd person, as I watch myself doing tricks. But physically, I feel myself doing all of it with first person tactile sensations. I manage to do lots of spins and flips in this way, and people are happy with the performance. I also retain a physical sense of observing all this from about 30 feet away, standing on the packed snow. I go full tilt with spinning super fast, and doing every twist and rotation physically possible.

Now the audience becomes loads of Buddhist monks and nuns, who all look at me at once and tell me it would be a good time to wake up now. I recognize that it's up to me, but I trust them, so I concentrate my mind on waking up. I feel a peaceful tingling, kind of dull and soft, as the dream fades back into my subtle mind, and my waking sense of my body in the dark room gradually exists again in my awareness.

About 30 seconds later, I get out of bed, and walk over to the desk to check the time on my phone. As soon as I pick up my phone, the alarm starts to go off, and I silence it before it wakes my room mates :-)

Being chased by super-human bad guys, I feel like I'm in the matrix. Running full tilt to get away, I turn a corner and end up in the street, with a hummer right in front of me. Without breaking stride, I dive forward through the air like superman, and smash through the windshield of the hummer, landing in the passenger seat right on top of a baby in a child seat, next to its mother.

Realizing that the agents can take over the mother's body in her spot if she is too startled, I lovingly move her baby to the other seat, and give her a reassuring look. Then I help her into the seat next to her baby, and take the wheel, driving very quickly to try to escape.

I’m in the Wal Mart parking lot, I look on the ground and see a fast food cup. I think I must have dropped it, and hesitate a moment to pick it up, but then do. Then I see a straw and go get it. Then I see a small piece of another straw but end up not getting that, because I don’t think it’s mine.

I have a hard time carrying the stuff so I spot a box like from KFC and pick it up to use. Mom comes over reaches out to help, but I worry she’ll see what’s written on a piece of paper I have, but then I figure she’ll just think it’s from someone else.

2.
Something about taking a pill and finding myself in some room along with someone else. We’re standing there looking around when one of us goes over and starts lifting blue rocks off the ground that were piled up, which covered something underneath them. We realize it’s a trick, fake room.

I’m driving with someone in a van. I’m excited to use the cruise control feature (more like auto-drive) since I suck so much at driving. There was something about wanting to try out a ‘drive to destination’ feature.

We’re looking for an angel. I see three different people in tan trench coats, although one had a black shirt and the coat was around their waist or something – but none of them are the right one.

We do end up picking up this older woman (maybe the black-shirt?). She needs help getting somewhere. I think I felt unease around her.

We had to stop at a bathroom. There was more than one room so I found my own one with a lot of stalls.

Problem was, I couldn’t seem to find one with a toilet in it. I ended up going into one with a weird, metal, tall and wide sink, but end up making a mess trying to use it.

When I get out, of the stall, the older woman had apparently been waiting for me the whole time. There was the feeling that she finally got to show her true colors and do something to me.

Inspirations: Driving from last dream. Yay auto-drive. Angel from me having looked at a post I reblogged on Tumblr with Castiel in it, who wears a tan trench coat in Supernatural.

Many dreams.
I'm chasing down a king to an overhang I know is close by. Ignoring the Minecraft forest, all that you need to know is that to get there [to the overhang] you could make a jump down or take a slope, but the slope is some eighty feet out. It was all grass and rockiness, but the overhang is paved. I saw where my target jumped and prepared to jump to the right, while my friend who looks like he came out of MIB tells me it's only sixteen feet and he'll go around. I jump down and the fall, which was really forty feet, took longer than expected for some reason. Needless to say, the impact hurt and I couldn't pursue the target. One thing worth noting is that this event was not planned or scripted in my mind beforehand. Almost everything in my dreams was usually pre-planned by my subconscious mind. He got away. Apparently, the way back is like a 200 foot cliff I need to climb. To circumvent this, I just used a rocket out of nowhere. On my way back (my partner didn't have a rocket) I almost reach the city, but there's a ridiculously large moat around the whole city. I get there via chain link climbing, and when O get there, I find evrything to be made of sandstone. Some random ancient Egyptian dude crowns me king for good effort in my assassination attempt (I'm serious here!)

Second dream involves me getting on a bus and talking about how bad these random coaches hate me. There are some weird things like my door being big and teal, but nothing noteworthy

Third dream involves a figurine battle, but until this fully living caped guy with crazy jrpg hair shows up, I was winning. I recieve random awareness, and jump out the window. There's a real battlefield. That dead body, mustard, but it tastes like sour cream. I obviously need to sharpen my senses, and then I wake up about a minute later

Black: Non-dream
Blue: Non-lucid
Red: Lucid

Didn't have very good dream recall last night, I think I'll have to direct more attention to dream recall for a good week or so to bring it back to what it used to be.

Dream Fragment - Thugs from the hood
This probably has something to do with my own experiences. Me my friends were crossing at the traffic lights, it was day time. The side we were crossing to had a car waiting at the stoplights, some islanders got out and told the women I was walking with to get in the car. A couple of them were getting ready to clock me, and I push the women behind me and told them to run. I also remember that the car was technically on the wrong side of the road - in New Zealand we drive on the left side, this car was on the right side .

As I said I'm going to start getting lucid now on will so expect more lucids. Even if they seem short because when I have school I don't have enough chances to have a lucid.


I was walking with my mom after something I don't recall occurs in the dream. But as I was walking my mom pointed out that our house roof, which looked like a animal crossing red roof but bigger, was on the ground right in front of the house. I was surprised but as we walked inside I knew it was a dream.

My dad than gave us orders to stay in a room and away from trouble because there was someone coming to inspect us and that they had a bomb. I looked around and saw a little girl in the room. I don't remember why but for some reason I found her annoying. So I used my dream hand wind powers to pull her up into the air and shook her up a bit. After I put her back down she started complaining. My brother said I probably shouldn't have done that to her cause what if she came back to get me. I told him that she's not going to hurt me and went through the walls and over a fence.

As I was running the scene started transforming into a office building but with narrow halls. I thought something negative was lurking further into the office rooms and decided to go through a clear huge window that showed a welcoming city in view. As I flew I looked around at the scenery than landed somewhere near a fruit market. It had a roof over it and was attached to the supermarket though. But just when I thought things were going good I was suddenly jumped by a group of girls who were set out to get me. Things got intense.

My strength was deteriorating and my movements were slowed down as if they were poisoning me with their negative DC minds. Good thing I'm a trained combat in the art of heavy gravity. I used my sheer will and strength to kick and punch the girl DCs that were surrounding me. Wamo!! In a few minutes they were out of my face. One of the innocent DCs who was a girl started panicking. I asked if she was okay and she said yeah but the girl DCs were treating her like a doll/servant. That's when they came back madder than ever so we fought. It was 3 girls and a guy against one. I was punching, they were swinging, my defense was high up there and the offence was bringing them down. When suddenly...BANG!

They pinned me on the fruit stand and took out a weapon. It was a stick with a diamond/Jewel on the top and it appeared as if they were going to drain me. One of the girls laughed than said " Looks like we finally got you. Its too bad we have to destroy you now." As she was talking I saw that there was a pole somewhere near my hand that another girl was holding. I used all my strength and tried reaching the pole without them noticing.

Just before she could use her power stick on me I grabbed the pole and smacked them all back than through the stick in the air that now exploded and ran into the supermarket. In it I saw a old friend and decided to try one of the dream foods as a reward for my dream fighting training. At first it looked like a peanut butter and jelly snack on the box so I took it. But when I opened it it was fruit roll ups.

I was surprised but content as well. I ate it than noticed the gang of DCs looking for me. I ran up a couple of stairs and shouted for the DCs to stop. I looked at them all intensely and asked why were they still chasing me. Is there something your unhappy about? One of them said they weren't content with their blushing face. A toy whale thing said it wasn't sure what it was confused about and a guy DC said something I don't recall. Anyways I told them to stop the chase and woke up.

Had my 3rd LUCID DREAM last night. Exactly like last time, it was a long process to get there, so here goes.

I 'm standing into a queue to get into a hotel for a friends wedding. I didn't see her, and I didn't recognise anyone. The doors were made of metal and slid open. Inside was an empty dance floor. I followed two lads down some stairs and into some corridors - bit of a blur - I'm now outside amongst rolling green hills. Me and a group of others are walking through a marsh. There are cut divots of grass just below the waters surface and we are making all haste all of a sudden - we're being pursued! Me and a tall lad I dinny ken reach the paths end, its a snow covered slope. He goes first and we attempt a climb, due to some optical illusion the slope becomes vertical quickly and we realise its a trap of sorts - bit of a blur again- I'm back in the corridors, its just me left. The corridor splits in two. Ahead to the left a huge bunch of zombies appear (I've never dreamt aboot zombies before!) the leader says something and I run down the other fork. A Skeletal dog appears- before it can attack, I grab it by the snout and start cracking it open - odd. I then find myself in a room above a restaurant. I dive through some windows which are covered by drapes, theres no glass, I hear a woman shout 'You cant do that!' and I fall one storey and end up lying on some curatins looking up - a womans concered face looks down at me - it was quite cinematic!

I have a false awakening. I grab a bit of yellow card and a red pen and try to record the dream. the pen runs out! My wife is is sitting next to me. She says 'Ah, you're actually a computer simualtion' Shes serious, and I realise its true! - I get hysterical and she doesn't understand why! I ask her if she has a family in real life and she says no. I scream some more when I realise my son isn't real either!

I have ANOTHER false awakening. Jings am I glad the last part wasn't real (I hope!) I grab the yellow card and try to read what I've written. There is just the outline of words and I cant make them out.

I now have a total blur which is annoying because then I am suddenly completely lucid!!

I'm in a long cluttered basement. My Uncle and his wife are there. I want to leave and go somewhere better! My uncle is farting about and wont get out of the way. I've always wanted to muck aboot with DC's! I open a cupboard and theres a pair of boots inside. I turn to my uncle and pour the contents of the boots onto the cobbled surface. Out comes literally gallons of water! - Then some Minnows, the a couple of eggs. I look to my Uncle - he couldn't give a toss. Then two shoeboxes come pouring out the boots (One black & one white) My Uncle says 'Oh, COME ON!!!!' This seems to work as he's eager to leave. I feel the dream slipping a bit. I shout 'More lucidity' and press my hands to a handy shelf. I do this two or three times but its not helping a great deal. I try to walk a wee bit but its getting dark. I try to visualise another uncle for some reason, but it doesn't work - I wake up

Great fun though!!

I was walking on the middle of the road and then a man wearing one of those yellow construction vest started punching me, so we begin to fight afterwards he yelled out for the police and quickly I could hear their sirens. Something I did which is my usual response to these situations is to attempt to quit game however this did not qualify for the dream. I began forcing myself to enter in one of the police cars, but was then teleported in to the living room. The lights were on, I then continue to ran forward to the back door and opened it with the intention to runaway. That is when I caught myself in thoughts and knew this is a dream. I began running on the road saying I am dreaming and then I ask why was it so dark? I made attempt with dream control to cause the sun to rise however it was futile. It began to get too dark to the point where I could not see anything. The only thing I properly perceive now was the wind passing through me while I ran. Eventually this does not last long. A CPU file appear in the darkness and said rebooting please wait patiently as it finish loading. Soon it reach to a hundred percent and appear in my father room. I ask if I was dreaming as I already had the thought this was an FA. I look at my hand but it appears normal. Before I made it my intention to use the noise pinch RC I woke up. Lucidity Time: 1 minute.

I've not posted here in quite a while! It's quite pathetic!

So I've been having terrible dream recall lately, so I decided to pull out all the stops, do everything I can to improve it.
Detailed dream journals, reality checks, improving awareness (which is pretty hard for me), and reading loads about lucid dreaming.

Not to mention reading all my old dream journals on here from back in the day!


So I decided to try Wake Back to Bed seriously for the first time ever. I had to make my own alarm clock program for this
I think this was pretty good for a first try

(note: there's a few swear words as this was right out of my dropbox dream journal)

non-dream
dream
lucid
-----------------------------
This is around 2:45 or so.


Dream 0:
???
I barely remember this.
I woke up, and the countdown clock said it had only been an hour.
I hear dad getting up, and going to the bathroom.
I lay there, trying SSILD. I try to do cycles but my mind wanders very quickly. I desperately try to keep on track but it's very hard.
I eventually hear bumping from the bedroom, which almost jumpscares me, but I lay there doing cycles, or at least attempting them.

I eventually fall asleep.


--------------

Dream 1:
So I'm in a car, going down a street. It's twilight out, the sky is really dark but you can still see the sun for some reason. You can see a bunch of woods, and a few farms from the road. I come to a rather drawn out turn, and I pull into this circular building.
I get out and walk into a bathroom. It's incredibly nasty in here, with at least one hobo in the bathroom as I walk in. The lighting is very yellow. The walls are mostly made out of tiles. I go into one of the stalls, but then walk out as it was nasty. I then see another hobo in the middle of the bathroom, shitting on the floor! WTF! So I bolt out of there as fast as I can. I then wake up.

I open up my laptop, and my countdown clock says it's been 3 hours since I fell asleep.
I try SSILD again, but it's very hard to keep focus. I eventually fall asleep.

--------------

Dream 2:
I'm in a blueish green field. There's lots of trees around and it's day time.
I see a monstrous bird under a tree, and I go near it. All of a sudden a DC comes and yanks me back, telling me not to go there!

He tells me about those birds.
They're cranes of some sort (forgot the name) that grow to 8 feet tall usually.
Males are larger than females, and have ornate colors below their necks. Females are just gray.
Their bodies are more vertical that most cranes. (similar to Praricrane?)

He tells me, that their eyes get radio active lasers before they're large enough to carry someone.
I then wake up.

I once again look at my laptop and it says I have less that 12 minutes to the alarm!
So I open notepad, type "6-33 12-19", then close the clock. I then lay back down.

This time I SSILD more seriously, and eventually become numb. Almost as if I'm hovering in the air. I then fall asleep.


-----------------------

Dream 3:
So I am in some huge thrift store. The walls are gray and there's some green plants on the walls. So I'm looking around and on the shelves I see some old gameboys! I see what looks like a gameboy color (with batteries!) which I pick up, and then I see what looks like a gameboy DMG but is a lot thinner and a bit taller. The screen is rather small and a very light green.

So I grab these, and then I turn on the GBC and I see the GBC bios, along with some garbled text near the bottom. :ding: So I look where the game is, and I see no game!
I then pocket the gameboys, and I look around some more.

Next thing I know I'm in the 22nd century, talking with DCs about bone implants and shit. It's my house, and it looks more or less just like my house, but there are floating platforms everywhere. So I get on one, and I think about those implants. So there's some kind of race to get one of those. So we run around the back yard (the tree is there), and eventually it's night time, and I have one of those. Not in me, but I have one. I go back on one of those floating platforms. It's night now, there's lots of bright stars and the sky is a deep blue.

So I now have a CD with me, along with some white music player with me. I don't play the music, instead just laying on the floating platform. I then get up, and go into the fort. Some DC comes with me, and starts talking about gay stuff. I walk into the top level of the fort, which looks like it was made out of netherrack.

So I'm sitting there, and all of a sudden I start mining the netherrack down with my invisible pickaxe. Once it's more or less gone, I go to the corner of my house, and there's a bunch of tables there. There, some DCs are making a gameboy demo. I take the cart and put it in the unreal gameboy and turn it on. I then hear deep tones, and music, while seeing some flying ships on the gameboy screen.

For some reason this made me run around the back yard frantically!
I eventaully get back to the hovering platforms, and I switch dreams.


---------------------

Dream 4:
So I am in this circular room, styled very similarly to the fire sanctuary. The room is open to the sky, though there was a metal grating on the top.

Ghirahim is in here as well. I have the spinner from twilight princess, and I am just messing around. I'm running into all these pillars that are in here, but I can't hit him. I eventually slow down, and I am right in front of him. I inch my way forward, and I start getting the spinner in him. The square protrusions just clip through his legs!

So I get off the spinner, and I start noclipping around. I noclip inside him, and turn off noclip. He all of a sudden juts back, as if he was hurt by that. He has a sad look on his face. He runs into this teleporter in the huge pillar thats in the middle of the room, and the door opens.

So I go through the door and I come out to a rather brown room, similar to the ending areas from the first skyward sword dungeons, but more designs around this area.
There's water everywhere, and a red metal path towards this structure that looks, almost like a slide. It had two openings near the bottom that when you walk through, you're teleported away similar to other zelda games.

I didn't walk through them, instead I noclipped around, and went onto the top of the waterfall. The water has no collision up there!

I try to slide off, but I can't and end up falling down to the floor.
I eventually wake up from here.

I wake up and it's noon! How did I sleep that long?

Either way, then begins loooooong process of dream recall followed by DJing all these.

WOW, did I just coin a new phrase? Nope, just did a Google check DSILD

My dream sign is a black cat. Whenever I see a black cat in my dream I become instantly lucid, even if I’m beyond tired and in a deep sleep. I have these little pictures of cats scattered around my house and at work, and whenever I see these pics, I do a reality check. It has worked out really well.

Last night in a dream, I was under a table, on my hands and knees organizing some files. Out of the corner of my eye I could see a black fuzzy thing sneaking up alongside me. I flicked this creeping black thing away using the backside of my hand, without even thinking, and it was sort of like a panic reflex. I then took a close look at what I just flicked, and it was my beautiful black cat, my dream sign. I became instantly lucid. I then looked at the cat and said, “Oh, is that you? I’m sorry, come here.” I called the cat by her name. The cat quickly came to me and I hugged it in my arms. The cat then kissed me right on the lips, just like a person would. Lips actually formed on the cat for an instant as it kissed me, and I felt its little teeth hitting mine. This little cat helps me to become lucid at least once or twice per week, and we always do some snuggles! I swear this cat seeks me out.

My dream started with me waking up in my apartment, it was still very dark outside so I go to turn on the light, but none of the lights in my apartment work, further more no lights anywhere are working, but the power is not out, my computer is running but there's no light coming from the screen, no moon light, nothing, just darkness. I try to light a few candles but when they burn there is no flame, just that blue dim ember burning appearance, nothing that i light will produce a full flame...


If anyone can help me with the meaning of this I'd appreciate it.

The only thing I remember I successfully transformed into a Black Cat.
