I'm walking down a long hallway. It is reddish yellow and more like a square duct terminating in a wooden door. I remembered that to enter a lucid dream one of the resources is to assume that all doors lead to lucid dreaming. I open the door to another hallway that has doors on both sides. I travel the corridor quickly and looked toward those rooms. In each one there seems to be corpses (I guess), but everything happens very quickly because I move too fast almost like flying. Semi-lucid and confusing dream.
I had a dream that my boyfriend and I went to the airport so he could catch his flight back home (he lives in Mexico; I live in the US). After we said goodbye and he left, I went looking for someone who could tell me when the next flights to Mexico were to have an idea of when we could get together again. Not too long after we went our separate ways, I turned around and saw him behind me. I was surprised to see him there, as his flight had already begun boarding. Surprised, I asked him why he was still here, but I woke up before he had a chance to reply. After going back to sleep (I don't know what time it was when I woke up, but it was still dark), I had a dream that I was at a party. I saw a girl there who looked familiar; I recognized her to be Ashley (my tulpa Link's girlfriend, who has a different host). I thought that I should tell Link that Ashley was there, since he'd be happy to see her, but then I remembered that tulpae can't see other people's tulpae (somehow, it didn't occur to me that I shouldn't be able to see her, either).
Lucid 1: I was at school next to the astro, did a nose plug RC, and it passed so I was like woo!!! Started talking to people asking them random questions. (FLIP! Forgot TotM! D Then the dream faded... Lucid 2: I was in my last year's English teacher's room, talking to her, and then I realized the classroom looked different, so I did the nose plug RC and it worked. Then I tried to do other RC's but they wouldn't work, so I was a bit confused, but then I just ended up talking to classmates and grabbing some random half-Russian half-English book? Then the dream faded. Happy that I had LD's but pissed that I didn't remember to do TotM!
Don't remember much of this dream, was woken up abruptly, thus was having hard time remembering stuff. I was in some room, watching videos on the monitor. There were bunch of people around me, mostly random people, but parents were there too. Apparently we were watching some sort of news channel, there was stuff like planes crashing and ships sinking on it, i was laughing for some reason. That continued for some time until like half of people left to do some other things, then i switched to some animation video, which had mix of characters from different cartoons, animation series and games(don't remember most of them tho), in one of episodes that i remember, Duke Nukem was shooting at some enemies in the desert and then running super-fast into some sort of hanger. At the end of the dream i was thinking if i should go to sleep or continue watching(Ahaha).
12/1/2013 Very confusing night, I kept waking up and falling back asleep, as well as having false awakenings, increasingly frustrated at my lack of lucid dream. In the end it came, well into the morning - I fell asleep at about 8:30 and woke up at 10. Fragment of 1st Dream: I was playing Forza Horizon, and was driving a racecar in first person along a highway. Since it was bird's eye view I looked on the situation from, I found it quite difficult, and ended up smashing into a massive white lorry. Fragment of 2nd Dream: I was walking around with my brother. I remember there being a wall outdoors, which I leaned against and told him I was in a dream right there and then. I had a flash of awareness which resulted in nothing, because I managed to not become lucid. Fragment of 3rd Dream: I remember being in my brother's dream, he was telling me about it but at the same time I was in it. I was in a lush green forest with sunlight permeating the canopy and falling on the ground in a seemingly tranquil manner. But there was a dark underfeel to the whole situation, and I remember seeing a small stone statue on the branches of a tree. It depicted some kind of grotesque baby with a pitchfork and the devil's horns. It was alive, and flew down at me, then landed and charged. Our heads hit each other and it reeled back, as did I. Fragment of 4th Dream: I went out with my family down one of the streets near my house in Poland. Then we stopped and noticed two sports coaches on the side of the street, so we invited them to a volleyball match. The coaches wore blue sports kits. Fragment of 5th Dream: This is more of a dreamlet: I could hear my family talking IRL and the dream was very shallow. I was walking down a street in London this time, with two friends from school, talking about random things, when I became lucid. I immediately, since I knew that time was running out, decided to scratch off one of my LD goals and willed a cliff to be behind the front door of one of the houses. I opened the door and stepped through, then jumped off the cliff. I felt that sickly falling feeling, and almost hit the ground before I woke up. I will have to attempt this in a more stable dream. Fragment of 6th Dream: Somehow I was atop a hill, with the two friends from the unstable lucid, and my physics teacher was there. We were outside a little chapel, and he said we were going to have a Christmas Eve. He was holding a Bible and some host. He underlined the importance of smart clothing to my horror, as I thought I was wearing tracksuit bottoms, but in fact looked down to see I was wearing my suit trousers, even though I was wearing a green informal jumper. We went into the chapel and sat down. Fragment of 7th Dream: The Nazis had invaded Poland and were taking prisoners, so they led me and some other people to somewhere, but when a Nazi high official-looking person wanted to take one of the women, presumably for his own personal gain, he was shot from somewhere inside the group of prisoners. The other Germans, of which there were barely around three, became very nervous and didn't want to go near the about 20-strong group of captives. Fragment of 8th Dream: I was in a supermarket when I suddenly became lucid. A mediocre level of lucidity, but lucidity nonetheless. I thought it'd be funny to see the DCs' reactions if I shopped with my trousers around my ankles, so I pulled them down and walked over to the shelf where the milk stood, grabbed a carton and returned to the counter. The carton was very cold, and I used that as a weak kind of stabilisation for the dream, but then my instincts got the better of me when I noticed a woman stood in line behind me. Inappropriateness ensued.
I have had perhaps 6 to 8 LDs so far this month, but kept getting involved in things other than ToTM. This time I had woken after 8 hours sleep and went back to bed. I was not really trying to WILD, but got lucky and did it anyways. I entered a basic dream scene. I looked around and was very aware and lucid. I flew up and saw I was in the river section of Boise, Id. I scanned my mind for what I wanted to accomplish in general. I managed to remember the task of the month challenge, and only one came to mind. I had bothered to do a couple mantras a few days ago to remind me it was suppossed tobe an extreme winter sport. I decided that i should work this up into a great experience, not just make a quick snowy scene and do a jump or anything. Well in Boise, Idaho we have a ski resort upon the only mountain inside the city, called Bogus Basin. It sits very obviously at the top of a small rolling mountain, and has colored lights on a tower, so it is an obvious landmark, for skiing. I flew higher and knew i would be able to see it. There it was clear as can be. I decided not to teleport, because flying there with it in view, would reinforce the illusion of actually going to Bogus basin to ski. It is a long ways away, and I was not flying fast enough in my mind, I could wake soon, so I sped things up with a trick. I figured I was moving only about as fast as a private air plane, but that would still take a few minutes to get there. I projected a spider man like line all the way to the tower and had it pull me forward like a winch. I zoomed up there very very fast. When I reached the ski resort I pictured finding a massive timber lodge i could get on top of. I planned on skiing off the roof of the lodge. A large timber building was in fact there and I tried to get on top of it. I had a small bit of trouble with stupid stuff like getting caught under the massive eves of the roof and having to screw around with actually making it to the top. When I was up there I realized I would need skis, so I attempted to summon them, but it did not work well. I looked around and had only summoned to straight boards about 2 or 3 feet long. I TK'd them to my hand and tossed them up knowing they would land in front of me as skis. they did not. I decided to just act as if they had anyways. I stood on the boards and made the basic motions of strapping on skis. I decided to make the meeting of this challange clear and offical, so standing oon the two boarrds on top of a massive ski lodge, I proclaimed outload "Lucid Dream Challenge! Extreme Winter Sport." I then started to ski down the sloping roof of the lodge. I did a ski jump off of the second story roof, but failed to do any kind of flip. I landed in the street, and decided to ski down the road and build up speed. I was not satisfide with how extreme it was, so I made the road become very very steep. I zoomed along straight down thee mountain. It was a rush, but i remembered I should be going back and forth and kicking up snow as I cut into a turn. I started doing this and it was fun, buut I needed to jump off some cliffs or something. I wish the graphics had been a little better during the two cliff jumps I did. I could feel everything as far as velocity and gravity plus detailed scensory feelings as far as body, but the visuals were lacking with much of the scene blurring into white mid jump. On the first jump the cliff was perhaps 20 feet and I did an arial flip, but landed on my back sliding down the hill and one of my boards came off my foot. I just pictured it snaping back into place and me recovering, and I was up again rushing into another cliff jump. this one went smooth, but still had poor visuals. I guess as I have never done a jump or anything, my brain was unsure of what the visuals would really look like. I finally reached the bottom, and when i looked around I woke up.
1/13/13 WILD into DEILD chain (6-8) ***note to self: work more on tactile sensations when developing scene from WILD. This is the 3rd night in a row of a WILD. I have not smoked or drank for about a week and a half. Every night I have been getting up around 5 (not intentionally) and been unable to fall back asleep for an hour or so. I can feel a moment of deep focus right before the transition sensations kick in. I have about a 5 to 10 second heads-up to stay aware. I can't describe it but I guess I have done enough WILDs where I can tell my body is about to fall asleep. Also, for the 3rd consecutive night the transition was the new adrenaline-lightness instead of vibrations. This occurred at the embassy suites where I was sleeping IRL. I wasn't able to record this for awhile, also I had a very distracting and emotional morning so my recall is down to about 0. I remember recalling around 8 DEILDs, most of which fell victim to the darkness. I am working on trying to develop scenes once I feel the transition instead of opening my dream eyes and starting in my bed. Here are the 3 snippets I remember. I remember that my previous few DEILDS failed because I started in the dark room. I tried to visualize a scene with a tree. I could start to see the outline in the darkness. I began to hear voices and they are having a conversation with each other. I believe I started to get visuals, but I was never "in" the dream, just observing some interaction. DEILD I am looking to get out of the dark room. I go over to the window and it is daytime outside. I jump down a few floors to the ground. It looks like fall. I walk around and I eventually find 2 guys who look to be early 30's. They are homeless and living out of a box. I cant recall the rest DEILD I go out the front door of the room. There is large arena with some people scattered about. It is indoors. I see a little Iron Giant figurine standing alone on the ground. It is about 3 ft. tall. I want to become it so I put it in front of my face and try to look through its eyes. Eventually I morph through it so I am seeing as it does, but I stay my normal size and physical appearance. I then just pretend to be a robot and pick up and throw some things.
A boy(I felt like a child/teenager in my dream) I liked was going to take me to a special place. He showed me a lake with an island in the middle. The way to get there was by a wooden boat. I remember becoming slightly lucid. I wanted to cross the lake but the water was dirty and I didn't trust the boat enough. I tried to make the water clean but it didn't work. A man told us there were other boats on the other side. Suddenly I was at a swimming pool with two of my cousins. The youngest one was way younger than he is now. Nobody was flirting with me and I thought that was strange. (sounds so arrogant now I'm awake) I felt ugly and was wondering how I must look like today. I also felt very white and thought I must have had break outs all over my face. We wanted to rent jet ski's to go to the island but it turned out to be fake ones for children. I became a little bit lucid and wanted to turn my plush monkey into a real one. -I have no idea why I had a plush monkey with me at a swimming pool- It didn't work. I was sitting next to a woman in the pool and she took my legs over her lap and the man next to her start massaging my feet. I wanted to leave but they told me I didn't have to worry. I looked stressed and I was their 'sister'. I asked them if they were going to convince me to become religious. The swimming pool was closing and I wanted to finally see how I looked. When I was walking to the mirror I became lucid and did reality checks. -While awake the first reality check I always do is pinch my nose. I never done this in my dream.- My hand looked very weird. I couldn't stop myself of looking in the mirror and I saw myself with a big forehead and the vision(?) was hazy. It was hard to control my dream. I tried really hard to change things but It didn't work too well. I tried to stay lucid by spinning around and rubbing my hands together. The thing I did manage to do after that was to make a car appear and drive with my friends. After that I woke up.
I do remember it starting completely no where on this deserted land. There was no signs of stores or utilities anywhere. All I was able to see was a few people, people who lived in the city. There was something interesting about this city. This city, although not having the appropriate places like stores, rest rooms, homes, it was a city just originating. It was kind of western was still felt like we were the first city the world. There was this desert I was walking on. The hills to my right were pretty high. My left side had a river streaming all the way in to the ocean. The river looked cleaned and so did the river. There was something that scared me about it. I saw the river and it looked a little too deep. I often saw people jump in to it but nothing bad really happened to them. I was probably exaggerating. After a few minutes of walking or so, we finally reached a stop. The place we stopped at was a luxurious home. That was my curiosity. What was a beautiful home doing in a place like this? It never occurred to me to be a dream. This home, it had people in it, a lot of them. I looked at most of them as upper class only because there was security at the front glass doors. I walked in to the place and found things to chance differently. There were these people who were talking about dreams, or how scary it would be if one of us entered a deep sleep while paralyzed. I talked about my recent experiences in this place, not real ones but fake ones. I told one of the people my dream about Amnesia. I was stuck in a castle haunted my ghosts/demons. Falling asleep was the worst part only because I knew what I was going in to. We talked about that for a while and often times I would see images of dark areas of the castle in Amnesia. After that, I walked upstairs of this nice home and found nothing for me upstairs. All I really saw after dream talking was people having a good time being at this place. There was nothing left for me here. I walked back outside of this home and saw a person, a girl. She looked to be around her twenties but then again you'll never sure because a lot of teens now in days look like they're in their twenties. This woman wanted to talk to me but as she tried to, I was flying on the other side of the river and back using a tool like the one I use in Just Cause 2. Often times I would fall in the river and there was in fact one time when I encountered a sea creature in it. I accidentelly fell to the river floor and hurried my way back to shore. A few seconds after I reached the shore, I saw a white shark coming after me. It was a relief to have survived this possible attack. After making my way back shore, I decided to ride a horse, or something like it. I was riding this horse up to the first area where the dream first started. There was something behind us. There was a pit bull, it didn't look to happy. As I was riding, the pit bull was attacking my horse. He killed it but I never collapsed to the ground. The pit bull then attacked me with its mouth. I felt its bites but they never really hurt me. I petted the dog and it seemed to have calmed down. I made my way and got off the so called horse and walked with a few other groups of people. We walked to an area where something new had just happened. For some strange reason, we had just discovered something I already knew about. I forgot what it was. Everyone else felt excited about this new discovery. I did too. I felt really grateful that the discovery was able to help us living in a time when everything was harder to work with. There was something about this group of people that caught my attention. This group of people, most of them were another race. Most of the people I hear from, they called them white. In this dream, it felt as if the white people thought they were better than everyone else. There was only one black person there, and me, not black but Hispanic. I always think of this. Especially when I go on a server that's filled with people who have the money to be able to buy donation features or have the time to play the game. But while I was in this area, no one seemed to had shown any form of hatred towards me. After this experience, I walked back over to where I first seen a white shark and appeared in a huge area. This area was a bit strange, hard to describe but I remember watching my father go out with another woman, not his wife. I had no anger towards him and I even saw the woman doing stuff to him. I felt a little disgusted after I saw my father lying on that couch with no shirt on. I never saw them perform any sexual activity but it bothered me a little.
I had a fun night, but did not bother to record the lucids except a few words, now a couple days later, I seem to have forgoten a bunch of it. In one I became lucid because a lecture was outside that should not have been. In another a toliet was in a kitchen. I do not remember what triggured the 3rd one. I managed to chaange the entire scene at one point to be a street corner in Mexico, with booths and carts. At one point I was flying and a row of telephone poles kept getting taller as I went up, until the telephone poles were up at the top of a sky scraper, then I dove from up there and dove into a plastic cup. These were very vivid as they happened, but boy, the recall is just fading away.
I'm realizing that I don't remember my dreams as well as I used to, so I'm going to have to start at the beginning again on this site. Somewhere in the middle of the night I had a dream that me and some cousins were walking around a large mall. It looked pretty high class somehow. As we were walking past some windows for a shop I saw my two aunts, another lady that I recognized at the time (but can't remember now) and my Mom sitting in some salon chairs getting the gray died out of their hair. I walked in and they were so happy to see us! It's almost comical how happy they were to see us. I can't remember now what was said, but we didn't stay long. I think my cousin Sara was asking about the technique that they died their hair because it was covering the gray so well and she wanted to try it for her hair (she's younger than me and has no gray so this makes no sense). I woke up after some point and remembered more than this, but this is all I remember now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This morning I woke up remembering part of a dream where I was at work (not really my work). I was driving around a grocery store suppose to be picking up packages at the registers (I guess I was suppose to be dock attendant, but at a grocery store?). All the registers were clean though, so there was nothing to pick up. I started cleaning up garbage instead; old cups half full of water/pop that I had to dump out, half eaten bags of chips/cookies, ect. I found a few bags of chips and a packaged donut that weren't opened yet, so I kept those for a snack some other time. I also remember at some point in this dream watching a girl with blonde hair talk to a man that she had a crush on. He was intentionally being mean to her telling her that the girl he was seeing was better than her; that the girl he was talking to was stupid and fat and so on. I knew he only said these things because he liked her and was trying to talk himself out of liking her. That girl wasn't phased by it though, she knew he was just being a jerk. She had gone to school and worked in medicine, she wasn't overweight, and she spoke several different languages, so she was pretty confident in who she was. That's all I remember about that though. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This morning I had several glimpses of images/dreams as I woke up and drifted off again. I remembered them when I woke up and tried to hang on to them to write them down, but it seems I've lost them now.
took: - no 5-HTP before going to sleep - no galantamine + choline (continuing the 1 day on 1 day off cycle) - no Piracetam when I got up lucid dreaming: 0 lucid experiences note: - 3 dreams recorded, dreams were quite vivid, (flying)
Sleep - 11:05pm Wake Ups - 1:15am Finial Wake Up - 9:00am WBTB - N/A Dream Fragment - Me and my brother were planning To take pictures of a massive house that was nearby. We were getting the cameras ready.
No recall.
I'm glad to be in a patch of more peaceful, relaxed lucids that are geared toward exploration. These are usually among my favorites and tend to provide more opportunity for completing tasks. (Not that I was successful completing anything in this dream, of course, but theoretically...) Color legend: Non-dream Dream Lucid Lucid #56: The Kangarant I'm in a small prop plane flying over a high, snowy mountain range. There are two other guys in the plane with me, both in their 20s. There are no seats -- everyone is standing. Nobody appears to be piloting the aircraft. The plane barrels toward a mountain peak, and I shout, "Agggh, watch out!!" But the plane clears the peak (though just barely) and the two guys high five. They look at me like they don't get why I'm being such a baby. "Where are we?" I ask. One of the guys ponders this for a moment and says, "California." California? "No way," I think, and become lucid. The plane goes into a hard, sickening turn to the right and starts losing altitude. My two companions think this is great, but I want off. I phase my left hand through one of the plane's windows. After a brief pause, the rest of my body follows and I'm flying outside in the clouds, the plane buzzing off into the distance. I'm descending pretty rapidly but I feel like I'm in control. Unexpectedly, I pass by a gray-haired man who's dressed in an Army Service Uniform. He looks extremely high-ranking, almost certainly a general. He's staying still while I'm moving so I whoosh right by him. He's muttering something as I fly by, but I can't make it out. My descent slows and I land in an airfield. Some planes are taxiing on runways while others are refueling. There's even a rocket set up nearby! It looks vaguely like a Saturn V but it's way too small. Stranger still are the animals roaming everywhere across this airfield. Each has at least one human handler. I spot camels for sure, and several other types that I can't remember. But the animal that really grabs my attention is something that I can only describe as the cross between a kangaroo and an elephant. (Kangarant? Eleroo?) This animal is about 30-feet tall, gray-skinned like an elephant, but with the powerful hind legs and dainty forelimbs of a kangaroo. It has a marsupial pouch but its head has tusks and a modest trunk. The head is elephant-like, but sleeker and longer than an elephant's. I watch this beast in fascination for a while. A handler on a raised platform is passing it some kind of hay to eat. The kangarant munches away, passive and content. I start thinking about tasks and I fly past the airfield to see what's out there. I come to a beach where several vendors have stalls set up. I decide that this is Australia and that I should do the Australia Task of the Year. I remember something about Mel Gibson. Actual task: ("Hitch a ride on a sea turtle, dolphin, or humpback whale and explore the Great Barrier Reef. Bite a great white shark and don't die. ") I decide that since I don't know what I'm doing I had better try something else. I decide to figure out some kind of way to travel to the Colosseum and have my gladiator battle. I convince myself that a time machine will appear behind me. I turn around, shouting, "Time machine!" This fails to do anything but make me feel stupid. A girl who looks like she's about nine walks up to me. I think she's perhaps Philippina. I ask, "Can you show me the way to the time machine?" She nods, looking a little cross with me. "But I'm not a girl! I'm a boy!" She glares at me, waiting for me to make this right. I don't really know how to respond, since she can apparently read my mind (and I still think she's a girl.) "Sorry...?" I offer, and this seems to satisfy her. She starts running inland across a nearby road and I follow. We've only gone a short distance when I wake up.
