Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid

Lucid #116: Dive Bomber in Darkness

I'm walking out of the lobby of a hospital, some important errand on my mind. When I head through the bank of automatic doors into the night, I'm confronted by a huge crowd of reporters and spectators that are hanging around like something important is about to happen. Is this a dream? Yes.

Looking into the crowd, I see my high school physics teacher, "Mrs. C". I walk up to her. "[Mrs. C]! I know that you've been waiting, like, forever for me to go on Draw Something. Sorry about that. How have you been doing?"

"Oh, that's all right!" she says. "My wife and I have been doing great." This is strange -- Mrs. C has a husband, not a wife. He even came by the school a couple of times.

"Well it was good talking to you," I say, and I step back from the crowd a bit, thinking about my next move. I remember wanting to go to Angel Falls so I decide that'll be my goal for this dream.

But just as I'm making my plans, I notice that one of the reporters standing nearby is extremely attractive. She's about 30, probably half-Asian, and lightly freckled. I start thinking very sexy thoughts before catching myself -- if I approach her, I know for sure that the dream will only head one way (and not to Angel Falls.) I back quickly away, my mind still going sexytime. The reporter stops speaking into her microphone, looks directly at me and says, "I think I love you."

I put out my hands and kind of wave them around. "No! No, you don't! I'm sorry, that was my fault!" Immediately she returns to what she was doing, forgetting all about me.

Okay, Angel Falls. I scan the horizon but there's nothing to really use. I could just start flying and try to work from there... As I'm planning, I start thinking about the good-looking reporter again. Okay, I really need to get out of here...

I allow myself just a moment to imagine that the top of Angel Falls is right behind me. Then I fling myself backwards as if I'm jumping off of a cliff, imagining myself going over the falls. There's a weird moment where I'm stuck upside down, my head sort of embedded in the sidewalk. After a couple of awkward seconds like this, I wind up in the void.

I rub my hands together, then imagine that I'm falling along the falls. Almost immediately I feel the spray of water against my face and arms. I point myself facefirst at the ground, arms tight to my sides. Air rushes past my skin as I gather speed. I feel myself going faster and faster, air filling my mouth. I keep "falling" like this for at least 30 seconds, and the sensation is so awesome that I don't even mind not having visuals.

I feel amused that "Angel Falls" is so incredibly high that I can skydive like this from it. I wonder how long this can go on. Even though I'm enjoying myself immensely falling through the darkness like this, I know that I need visuals to complete the task. I try to focus on what this should all look like but the intensity of the rest of the experience has me a bit distracted. The dream ends before I can make it all come together.

Lucid #115: Sandwiches for Skeptics

I DEILDed during this dream and wound up really scrambling the beginning. Pity. Anyway, I think this was a DILD. I remember something about a prison, finding my way through an office building, and being attacked. Somewhere along the way, I find Wife and my oldest son E. My memory becomes very clear here: It's morning and I'm walking through an empty, gray city with Wife and our oldest son E. I hold E's hand as he bounces and scampers beside me, pointing and jabbering excitedly.

We pass under a bridge and walk up a sloped street. All around us are gray vacant lots, brownstone tenements, and the occasional piece of newspaper carried on the wind. The one swatch of color is a bus stop to our left that bears a beautiful ad for Arby's. Below the Arby's logo it reads, "Sandwiches for Skeptics".

I find this very amusing but also really unlikely to be the new Arby's slogan. I tell Wife that "I'll have to google that later" but she doesn't respond. I run my fingers over the sign, appreciating its detail. There are even some air bubbles underneath the paper as if it wasn't pasted down all that carefully. I take my time with this, thinking that it can only help to draw me into the dream.

Task of the Year occurs to me. I'm fired up about going to Angel Falls, and I imagine that it's out there, just past the vacant lot and a row of buildings. As I do, I see little sprays of water coming up from over the tops of the buildings. I'm amused that the "graphics" for this water are absolutely terrible. The little puffs of water look like repeated, low-resolution particle effects with no animation.

Okay, enough thinking. Time to fly. I consider summoning NewArtemis to join us but then remember that I need to stay focused -- I'm already trying to bring two DCs with me. A summoning is pushing my luck too much. I take to the air, still holding E's hand, and his reaction is surprisingly subdued. From the ground below, I hear Wife say, "Oh okay... bye, guys!"

"Just follow us!" I shout back to her.

There's no reply, though, so I focus on flight. Looks like it's just me and E now. As we fly high enough to look over the tops of the surrounding buildings, I see that the entire city rest atop a huge mesa that rises high above an ocean. At the edge of the mesa I see a waterfall -- Angel Falls!

The Falls are a long way off, so I focus on flying faster and faster. We get up some good speed, but the dream is starting to feel thin and insubstantial. All I can think to do is speed up, but I'm not fast enough. We're still about a quarter mile away from the falls when I feel the sensation (real or imagined) of my eyeballs moving around and I'm awake.

I relax and go for a DEILD. I quickly enter a new dream scene, flying again, but this time as an observer with no dream body. I'm on a long, spiraling slope built out of stone blocks. The sides are unwalled and I can see that this tower stretches far above the clouds. I slide smoothly upward along the slope, making at least 3 full revolutions. I'm aware that I'm dreaming but I make no attempt to exert control. I'm content to just know where the tower leads. I keep spiraling upward and either lose lucidity or slip into the darkness between dreams...

Sidenotes:

• Alix and Baily were from my elementary school
• This story may not make that much sense as I have alot of fragments that add up together
• FILD did not work for me, I don't really think its my sort of method.

It's All About Clair:
I was flirting with a girl named Claire and was coming back from a school field trip on the buss. Once we got to my school I flirted a bit more in class and then she invited me to her house. I met her dad but her mom was no where to be seen,but,to my surprise I saw Alix there. He was trying to win Claire over,we kept talking over each other in order to get Claire's attention. Unfortunately as I was talking I was also eating, this resulted in me spitting out some food on the floor, and because of that she kicked me out and called me disgusting. I then left her house out of some weird tunnel/sewage way,I eventually came back and tried to apolagise but she would not let me in,so, I got mad and blasted her door with my super powers. She had nothing to say to me so she called the police and they got me out of there. I then went to my house and went to somebody who knows a lot about drugs and I told them to investigate a crush bottle that i was drinking to see if that had anything to do with my new super powers. He told me that the crush bottle had some sort of cocaine smell to it. I then went to my cousins house where i met Baily, he was also trying to win over Claire and tried to act innocent but it was pretty obvious.

I brought him over to my cousins house but then they started fighting because he was fat (lol),I later realized that the reason I spit out my food was because of the cocaine that i had got from the crush bottle. The cocaine filled me with energy resulting in me spitting my food on their floor. I then went back again to explain what happened, although she didn't seem that mad she has no inttention of inviting me over again so I got mad and went to play soccer with my friends at a local park. To my surprise I see baily there and he talks about how he got with Claire first and was arguing over it.( and thats it... no ending..)

Last night, i had a couple of dreams about water parks and carnival rides and what not, i didn't really see those as interesting so i decided not to log them. That probably was a mistake, in the future, i will log no matter what. Either way, some other dreams i had from the top of my head:

-i was driving down the road and saw two people hiking, kind of odd but i decided to ignore it. Later on, i found out they were actually reptilian shape shifters and they had invaded and possessed like everyone and i had to fight them, and well...i lost xD. I managed to kill one but i had to drown it while almost drowning myself in the process. I even had super saiyan powers but still lost, those guys are strong xD.

-Found myself back in school doing various things, and at one point, a t-rex attacked my mother but defended herself with my little brother. Weird, because i don't have a little brother. I also found out later in the dream that my little brother was an alien.

Dream 1

I'm in a giant train station. The ceiling arches way above my head, and support beams branch off from the ceiling to the walls. I'm with my friends and class, but am isolated from the others. We're standing on the top of the train itself, and I know dimly that it is moving but I can't feel the motion, just see the walls of the station sweeping past.

The top of the train is littered with a ton of boxes, and I mean a ton. Some are open, some closed, some tossed on their side. Some are stacked on top of others. Some are so full that they have objects spilling out. It's a giant yard-sale, except the conductors were going to throw it all away once they reached the next stop. I go up to one box and am searching through the pile of jewelry for anything good. I find a ring, and keep it. I tie the sleeves of my jacket together to make a bag and start to keep the items in there.

A guy I know in real life comes up behind me and slips an arm around my waist. I pause. I know that it means nothing to him, but it feels out of this world. Like, more feeling than I've felt in a dream before. It's so warm it nearly scorches my skin and I can feel it all the way through my stomach. I don't even particularly like him, but I get an instant rush of affection for him.

Once the kids see all the cool stuff I'm finding, they start to think that I'm onto something by searching through the boxes.

Then I'm at the library. The librarian stands in the middle of the room, surrounded by a desk upon which even more boxes are placed. She's searching through them, and I help. I'm more cautious about what I pick out, however, because I actually have to pay for this stuff. The place has an atmosphere of closing time, and we're the only people there besides a gray-haired older lady who is also a librarian.

I find quite a few things that I like. The librarian smugly beckons me closer, and I obediently leaned closer and peered into her hand. She held a wristwatch/ring/bracelet with several little bits that looked exactly like little fish made out of mercury. They busily 'swam' in the liquid inside, although they weren't attached to strings or anything. The librarian proudly explained something about magnetism, but I wasn't really listening. I really wanted that bracelet. Then she expectantly says, "Care to outbid me?" I say no, because I don't have enough money, and leave.

Dream 2

I remember being at some sort of party and looking for a girl that I had previously dated and was hoping to get back together with. We were both adults in this dream. I finally find her, with her arm around a dark-haired man as they both burst into a chorus of laughter that I can't hear because of the distance between us. Her long blonde hair swings as she shakes with laughter. I know that the man is her new boyfriend, and that I'm too later. I leave, extremely hurt because I thought that we were getting somewhere.

Spoiler for Warning:Disturbing Porn:

I'm looking at a computer. I find a porn that involves a woman using her stump of a leg (amputated) to penetrate another woman. She is also very old, like with gray hair. For some reason I am unable to finish it, and am desperate to get to a computer so I continue watching it for the rest of the dream. Yeah, it is really wacky and I'm appalled that I would dream about something like that, but oh well.

I'm in a room with another girl around my age. She has long, dark brown hair that just about reaches her waist. Despite that, she's rather plain looking and very timid. That's why I'm even more surprised when she brings up a porn site and starts watching it right there. She even comments on it, and lets her sister lend me a laptop as well. Her sister is very outspoken and loud. She's always chewing gum, and is very short but with big hair. I dislike her. I know that she introduced her sister to porn, and made her the way she is.

We're in a room with my little brother when he comes up and asks what we're watching. He sees a handjob for a brief second and starts asking questions about it. I awkwardly make the motion with a hand and asks if he does 'that'. He starts mimicking the motion, and I tell him not to several times. I think that I told him to try it sometime. I'm being arrogant because the outspoken sister is in the room and I'm influenced by her.

My brother runs over to my mom who has just entered the room and makes the motion several times, and she looks up at me, aghast. I yell, "I WAS ONLY TEACHING HIM HOW TO OPEN A CAN OF SODA, I SWEAR!" I make the motion myself, to reassure myself that it is indeed a soda opening motion. Yes, this is definitely a good excuse (not).

There was some sort of school that I either excelled at or was terrible at. It was a summer camp kind of deal. I got very bored with it. The kids there were all stuck up.

Today i dreamt i was sitting on my desk at my computer watching some scary pranks on youtube.
But suddenly i hear some sound around my room and i start to get scared, i look around it and
next to the chair i'm sitted on there is a monster with a creepy mask and his body was all black.
I saw him and i screamed out loud, after some 5 seconds, i stop screaming and tell to the monster.
"No, i'm not scared" (wtf lol.) My brother comes into my room and say it's already 12 pm.
I say to him "Huh?" suddenly i look to my computer clock and the time is 06:00 am
i tell him again "What are you talking about? It's 6 am." he tells me "But i am looking to your computer, it is 12:00 pm for me"
Then i take a look again and the hour has changed, now it is 10:59 am (Reality check done )
I stay like "WTF? why did the time changed?" (didn't got lucid ) After that reaction i just ignored that and looked through my room's window.
From my window i was seeing some vegetation, suddenly that vegetation starts to get burned, and the wildfire starts to expand quickly
it was enormous already and i only could think "Someone call fireman, someone please see that wildfire and call them!"

I was looking at her and she was smilling at us. Vitor went to the pc next to us and started playing alone.
The girl also went next to him and i stood with goncalo playing, vitor started to talk with girl and make her laugh etc...


Technique used for this dream: MILD
sleep time: 6 hours

This is so weird, I am sitting here a bit stunned. I just woke up, but let's call it more fled back here from the astral. I have run out of lucid goals. I wanted to challenge myself beyond super powers and the standard stuff. I decided to seriously try to figure out how to gain personal control over my entry into the astral dream realm and entry into the big city there. I did a WILD with this in mind. I intended to call out to "Dream Guides" in general if I needed to and to sit in seiza position if any confrontation happened to show my harmlessness.
I am a little embarrassed by the level of fear some folks from there caused me. Silly and foolish, I never seem to have enough forward clear reason and calm rationality when I go astral. I intended on showing restraint, and I did, but WOW, I panicked.

I WILD into a scene that appears to be a restaurant and an old lady is asking directions. My I-phone will not work. I realize it is a dream. I attempt to shift into the astral. I can not explain clearly how this is done, as I am actively trying to understand it myself at the moment. I think it worked right away. I have recently spent a year uncontacted by any Dream Guide types, because I asked the main guy to allow me some space to dream inside my own head, with out them always controlling/training me. I had been tired with every LD being a training session, or at the very least, subject to the rules and laws there. A few nights ago, I asked for re-entry and immediately was contacted (see naked rave dream). In that dream a security vehicle followed me around.

For my new dream goal I wanted to make the entry on my own if I could and then calmly make contact with some of the entities. I wanted to make good eye contact, and have a clear discussion. If things got weird I was going to sit to show harmlessness.

I walked around in what still looked like a dinner, but suddenly it shifted and soon I was there. The people were now emanating the special feel astral entities do. I was being watched and stared at. I sat at a table and I tried to talk with a large man. I could not understand him. He looked frustrated and increasingly angry at me looking at him. I seem to have somehow started an argument with him. I have sometimes thought they were testing if I would respond with violence (and often have) I tried to leave through a glass door. He tried to stomp after me. I held the door closed and he transformed into a polar bear and was pushing from his side and looking pissed.

I saw another man approach and asked him why this man was so angry. This man I could understand. He told me "Him? He was just delivering pizzas." ??? Well, maybe I could understand??? What? "He was just delivering food" The bear had gone from the scene so I stopped trying to hold the door. This guy hand me two pins, like would go in a shirt collar. What? I thought maybe they were some form of translating device, but fail to fully understand what they were, or how they could work.

I walked around behind the dinner and it was an semi-enclosed industrial looking court yard area. I was immediately approached by a man who looked very angry. I jumped up into a tree. So much for my plan of staying calm and showing harmlessness. This place has strong gravity that overcomes the ability to fly. I can fly for very short bursts but it exhausts me, and I am not sure many here can fly. He acted like he was going to grab me out of the tree, so I levitated (damn, the gravity was overwhelming) I barely got out of reach. I was forgetting my harmless bit. I mocked him "Can you fly?" He just shook some papers at me and repeated my words in an angry tone.

I snatched the papers from him and he stomped away. I tried to look at the papers, but they made no sense. I thought I picked up on some words that meant something about 2 types of blood and some public health issues. I gave up on understanding it.

I looked around and in the next area over was what looked like a large market store and a very tall tree like thing was in front. I figured I would hide in the branches and just watch people. I went over and floated up into the branches, but did not seem hidden from view. The tree was swaying with my weight and a passer by stared up at me like I frightened her. Soon a security type or at least a stern figure came and just somehow grabbed me down from the tree. I do not understand how. It looked like I was up off the ground a ways, but with a small gesture I was pulled down in front of him.

He looked angry and when I tried to talk he reached up and grabbed the pins they other guy had given me and shook them at me in his open palm. I could not understand him. I decided to go ahead and call out loud "Dream Guides!" I had decided on that phrase before hand, as this is still very confusing and my goal was to actually understand it more. Two more people rushed up, but I thought they looked angry too. I quickly went into the sitting position I had planned on to show I was not going to be a threat.

Things were going well in that sense, I had completed both goals, but I was on the ground surrounded by three unknown entities who looked angry. I panicked and decided to flee back to my own head. One of the people told me not to do it, but in my panic I felt it was a hostile order, and it just added to my fear. I closed my eyes and was a bit like Dorthy with they I want to go home stuff. One of them tapped on my shoulder, but I was panicking and made my escape.

I entered an ordinary LD (I think) but was creped out and made myself wake up.

I will not give up, I am going back in to try it again. I did not attack anyone. I called out "Dream Guides!" I sat saiza when confronted. So in that sense I succeeded in my goals. I also seem to have made the entry on purpose and without aid. I never thought that language type barriers would exist. I have not had time to think about that. Also, what is the meaning of the pins or the papers about public health issues?

For over a decade my adventures in the astral were haphazard at best, or guided carefully by a DG. Now, I think learning to understand and control this type of travel are the next step. I need to learn to stay calm and figure out how not to make people angry. I think the first guy could not understand me and was just yelling at me to leave him be (let him do his job) and I think the other guy wanted to know why I was creeping around behind the building. Fairly harmless stuff.

So last night I used an app called 'Sleepbot' to figure out my REM-cycles. It didn't work that well, though as I only got 3 hours of sleep
I wanna use this app to find when I can do the best WBTB.

After those 3 hours last night I woke up and filled my head with LD-related stuff. In the next dream I actually dreamed about Lucid Dreaming but I didn't do a RC or ADA so I didn't get lucid for real.
I only remember fragments so I'm not even gonna write a DJ right now, it's not worth it.

My plan for tonight is to go to bed earlier, do a wbtb after about 6 hours of sleep and hopefully get lucid!

dreamt that i was downloading games on steam but they kept on fucking around and resetting back to 0% and then i was playing TF2 but the maps were all different and weird

It is my birthday today and I got a nice lucid to go alongside it!

Dream 1

I was crawling to sixth form by the side of a busy main road. I had a brown suit on, I didn't like it in the dream but actually it was quite nice. I was crawling at a very fast pace, someone who rode there moped to school was going at about 30mph and I was keeping up with him by crawling. Then I came up to a bush, I crawled straight through it and on the other side realised it was a thorn bush. I had thorns stuck all in my hands. I sat down and picked them out, it was actually quite painful doing so. Blood was coming out of every thorn I pulled out. I crawled a bit more and I reached school. It was PHSE day.

I went up to this bar thing and they were handing out cans of drink called 'Lucid.' I thought 'this is weird two times in one day' (because in waking life on the radio the presenter was talking about how strange the word lucid was. Yes, I reality checked!) I ended up not doing the reality check as two friends came up to me and asked if I watched the tennis. I said yes and they said why, when there was football on? I told them that I didn't properly watch it, it was just on TV.

Dream 2

I was at the local shops by my house and I was wanting to get my haircut as there is a barbers in these shops. However the butchers were expanding and they were building into the barbers, the workers at the barbers were very angry with this. So I walked into the newsagent and the barbers had like a kiosk in there. There was 3 kiosks all next to each other. On the far left my brother was talking to one, the middle was a random man who looked about 50 and the far one was mine. I walked up to the women and said 'Please, can you just cut my hair, I need it cut now. I'm going on holiday in 3 days and I have no time between now and then to get it cut!' I was not happy. She replied 'No, sorry you can't.' I knelt down to put something under my bag, I was cursing to myself and started to walk out the shop. The man in the middle kiosk shouts at the women "F*cking little b*tchhhhhhh." I laughed and walked out. My brother followed.

My brother sat on a wall, he was bewildered by what just went on and done a reality check. That reminded me, I need to do a reality check! I decided to do the finger through palm one as the nose plug feels weird as I have got hayfever atm. So I done the finger through palm and my finger went through! I've never done this RC before but it was cool! Right, I haven't got much time I think to myself. I think, one of my tasks was to eat something. Perfect, I'm right outside a shop.

I run in and head to the first shelf, someone was in my way, I give them a little shove and kneel down. Yogurts after yogurts after yogurts. I didn't want a yogurt, I wanted something like a cake! Oh well, I still get to complete the task, I pick one up and peel off the top. I realise I need to stabilize the dream so I look at this lumpy white yogurt, notice the detail and dip my finger in it. It was nice and cold. I then just shove my hand into it and throw the yogurt into my mouth. It tasted pretty much the same to a vanilla flavored yogurt, same texture and everything. There we go that's that task done, but I wasn't finished I wanted to try more food. I noticed this honey flavored cereal I had never tried before. However it was stacked very high and I needed to get up there to get it. So I slowly flew up. I got this cereal box and opened it. Inside were hundreds of small sachets with what looked like popping candy inside. I ripped it open with my teeth and tipped it into my mouth. It tasted of nothing.

Then I think of what other task I needed to do. Basic summoning, meet my team mate and I couldn't think of my third step task. Right ok, I know what I'll do I'll summon JonnaB to be outside of the shop. I remember reading CanisLucidis dream where he summoned someone by saying '_____ I know you're here.' I've always had problems with summoning so I decided to try this. "JonnaB I know you're here! I know you're outside!" I fly out above the doors and at the end of a car park I see a woman lying, sunbathing with glasses on outside of a silver car. I fly over and say "Are you JonnaB?"
"Yes" she replied. My consciousness started to fade, I was flying still and I was being lifted upwards. 'Focuuuuussss' I think. I try and fly down back to her level, I do reach it but once again I'm pulled upwards into a bright light and I wake up.

I was on my way to America, I'm not exactly sure what for but I was going. I remember small fragments like being in a classroom for some event. I also remember having an empty battery on my phone while my parents were trying to ring me. The ticket I had was only to go there and not to return, so my parents had to buy me a return airline ticket. I went to some bank thing and it came up these transactions. I remember saying 1.2 million failed, and the airline ticket success. I remember being at the airline on my way back and seeing a school friend.

I was at my former daycare provider's home who continues to be a good friend of mine. I asked her whether she would be available to babysit my boys and I named a time. She said that alas she would not be, but that a friend of hers whom I do not know in real life might be. So I called this friend on the phone.

During the conversation I realized I was not talking to the friend after all but to her young daughter. So I started speaking more slowly and more precisely, and asked the child to give her mom this message.

When the day came for the babysitting, we arrived there, but the woman of the house was not there. So I started folding towels in a weird way. I asked the child to fetch her father, so that he could take over the folding of the towels. When the father came I was almost done folding the towels though, only a couple remained, but he took over and finished.

My son reports 4 dream fragments today, the first was about racing (not sure whether cars or on foot), the second was about a theater play in his summer camp in the main room there, and he was being a web (like a spider web), and there was no talking, and he does not know what the play was about. Then he woke up. Then fell back asleep and was again acting in a play but does not remember what. Then woke up again, and another play.

Little snakes

I see a lot of snakes on the floor, some of them are dead. There are very little snakes everywhere.

Long rifle

I'm on the field holding rifle with a long tube.

B. tried

I talk with B. and V. about their experience. B. says that she tried a lot of activities...

1.
I forgot as I got out of bed.
