A DC and I are digging around in a large abandoned barn, picking up random junk and placing it on a rolling metal shelf cart. There are a couple of openings in the floor, but they are filled with junk so we can't climb down.

I find a small table radio and when I put it on the shelf, it turns itself on and starts playing music. After a brief moment, the music stops and a weather statement comes on. The announcer warns everyone that a huge storm is coming through the area and there is a high potential for tornadoes, severe wind, and lightning..

As we are digging around, a huge thunder storm rolls in and brings nearly continuous lightning strikes. We decide to stay in the barn and wait out the storm. As we are hanging out in there, several other people walk in for shelter also. The wind picks up and it starts raining heavily. Some roofing tin falls in front of me and I wake up.

A few weeks ago I had a rather funny and complicated dream involving a man who has the ability to quickly open manholes from anywhere, on ANY surface, even on a concrete street. I suspect he used some sort of device to accomplish this and I think these manholes are possibly gateways to another dimensions/realities/parallel universe.

The man bears some resemblance to the actor mr. Christopher Lee (I made a small illustration depicting a manhole with mr. Lee in it). The man always wears a distinctive black hat. I was very surprised to see such magic (creating manholes out of the blue) and on one occasion I was able to follow him into a manhole because he wasn't paying attention. The manhole led me to a strange concrete complex with 6 or 7 machines. Each machine was capable of holding one person, but only a few were used. There was official looking staff overlooking some processes. There was one separate room which seemed to contain the oldest of all the machines in those spaces (some in the main entrance looked newer, far more advanced). The oldest machine held one man who was sweating. He was in some sort of a trance or dying.

Suddenly there was trouble with the machinery/some sort of supercomputer had failed/or some conduit had suffered from heavy power fluctuations. I could see electrical sparks coming from one particular room. The staff was not at all concerned with my presence, even though I was intruding the complex. Everyone was rushing to fix what was seemingly broken.

I never saw the man with the black hat again nor have I ever spoken with him. I don't know what the machines were used for. I could not recognise any of the electronics used but the machines depended heavily on it.



Has anyone had a similar dream like this involving manholes/gateways to other dimensions or perhaps even seen the man wearing a black hat that could open these gateways?

note: The manhole picture used is an artwork designed by the Indian sculptor Anish Kapoor, I used the picture to illustrate what I saw in my dream.

Over the past three nights I have been continuing to try to boost my recall using a self hypnosis program, and I have had recall more consistently, although there haven't been any useful dreams. It seems my recall is a bit better but my dreams are dumb… Here are the dreams I had.

EVE Online
I am flying a space ship from the same point of view as in the video game EVE Online, viewing the ship from above and behind. Unlike in EVE, however, I am flying the ship low over the surface of a mountainous planet. I am flying through some very vivid and detailed canyons in search of something, some piece of loot lost by pirates when they were destroyed when orbiting the planet. Somehow I am convinced the item has survived reentry and also had some way to slow its descent so it didn't make a crater. I start wondering if that was a mistake… maybe it wasn't able to slow down and it punched its way through into an underground cavern. I fly farther down a canyon in search of a cave large enough to fly my ship into so I can search underground.

Weight Loss Success
I am in my room selecting out clothes as I get ready to go to school. I am running late and I don't want to take the time to find my clothes, which don't seem to be where I put them. I find an old red skirt that I know is too small for me. I decide that since I have lost weight, maybe it is no longer too small… so I put it on. It fits perfectly! I finish dressing and I run out to tell my mother how much my weight loss is showing, my skirt fits again! She is happy for me and says I look nice, but I had better get to school. I leave for class, thrilled that my diet is bearing fruit!

Stealing Bases
I am with Tigress and we are walking down on the south side of town near the local swap meet. She wants to go somewhere, I am just following her. We end up at a ball park where a baseball game is about to start. I say I don't want to watch baseball, but she can, I'll hang at the swap meet until the game is over. She says forget the game… let's go. I follow her, thinking we're both going to the swap meet. We end up at another entrance to the ball park. I repeat that I don't want to watch baseball. She is a bit annoyed, but goes into the stadium to find a seat. I leave as they are singing the national anthem while saluting a flag that nearly drops on my face. I go to the swap meet and find a jewelry store. I am browsing when I hear a couple of people planning to shoplift. One will create a diversion, the other will steal. The diversion begins, I take advantage of it to steal a gold necklace and a ring. I notice that the necklace is priced $659. The two who had planned the theft get caught, I sneak out. Now I'm a thief. I wonder what I intend to do with the jewelry… wear it? Maybe. Sell it? Maybe.

This Old House
Tigress and I are exploring a house, it is a large old house that I don't recognize at all, and it has a really strange layout. We enter into a small room that has a lot of knitted wall hangings, it is clear the previous owner of the house liked to knit. I have the idea it was a little old lady who has recently passed away, and she has left the estate to… to me? To Tigress? I'm not sure. But somehow the house is ours, Tigress' and mine. I have to pee. I look around for a bathroom and I find one. I am a bit concerned that the water won't be turned on, but it is running. The toilet is weird. Really small, no lid, but there is water in it. So I use the toilet. My addition fills the tiny bowl past the fill point, triggering it to flush automatically. The flush itself splashes water past the fill point, triggering another flush. That flush triggers yet another flush… that could go on forever. I don't know how to stop it, so I leave.

June 1, 2011
This was a particularly cool non-lucid/semi-lucid dream I had a while back. Parts where non-lucid while other parts were semi-lucid. The dream started at a time in the past when I was new to dream control, in the dream. I mean, as part of the dream time line. I think I was walking around in some field somewhere, when a small, 8 petaled flower fluttered down from the sky. It looked similiar to a sunflower, with a dark speckled center, and orangey yellow petals. A werewolf spawned from it and woke me up in the dream. I was still dreaming, and the dream story skipped to another time, where I started to sleep again. I was being taught dream control by a sort of mentor.

It was a she. She was teaching me how to spawn these flowers, and influence what came out of them. At first, I was afraid it would be another werewolf, but my mentor told me to expect a bunny, and when I did one hopped out of the flower I summoned.

After I realized how easy it was, I went home to practice summoning. This section was semi-lucid, because I realized I could do anything I wanted, but I didn't want to do anything I wouldn't do in the real world, if anyone could see me. I could easily call a flower down and influence what came out of it.

After summoning some random stuff, I decided to summon a furry to have sex with. I called down a flower, but when I summoned the furry, it came out as a hardened plush toy. At this point, my mom started to come out, and I felt a need to hide the thing. I tried to summon a tote box, but It came out as a cardboard box that had been warped from water. Using telekinesis I put the box over the plushy, and my alarm went off.

When I woke up, I said "that was an awesome dream."

A week ago I had a very strange non-lucid dream about tigers riding on the back of elephants. It was actually a stampede of elephants, running across streets. I made this very raw depiction of my dream (see illustration, the elephants look like cardboard figures but this is unintentional)




In this dream I was a bystander, witnessing the stampede. I know there are stone statues near temples in India of tigers riding on the back of elephants, but it's meaning is unknown to me. Can someone please (on short notice) enlighten me and tell me if there's any symbolic reference to certain events or if this has anything to do with me. It is very important to me.

had my first lucid in like almost 2 months, finally broke my dryspell lol. i overslept, and i was dreaming that i woke up and looked at the clock. the clock said "7:18" and i was like "WTF! 7:18 in the evening" but then i noticed there was no am or pm sign next to it, and automatically boom, i become lucid. for some reason the light also went on lol as soon as i hit lucid, kinda like a lightbulb over my head. i looked at my hands and they were fairly normal. i was about to "secure" the dream and make it more vivid, but i felt like that wouldnt work as well so i tried to fly out my window asap. that didn't work very well because the dream faded lol. i became lucid again in the next dream (i forgot how), and this time, i made sure the dream was stable. i started smelling the dust on my cabinets (eh) and sneezed, touched everything blah blah. then, as i was about to jump out my window to fly, i was like, "how do i know this isn't reality right now?" lol. the dream felt so real i had to make sure that it wasn't reality and it was really a dream, so what i did was i made the dream fade out on purpose, and then came back to my original position. crazy stuff. i then jumped out of my window, where i saw people on my front lawn, so i landed there. they started talking to me about stuff and i got lost into the dream and all the action, where i also lost my lucidity. oh well

I was in what appeared to be some kind of arena, but it was dark like a movie theater would be. To my left was my mom and past her was other members of my family and a friend I haven't seen in a long time. On my right there was only some kid I didn't know and his dad. I wasn't paying much attention to whatever it was we were watching I can't even remember what it was now. instead I was talking to the kid beside me and my mom. I had 2 boxes of cracker jacks and I was about half way finished with the first box. I was pretty excited about having them because I haven't had any in a long time and they are really good. At one point the friend down the row from me got up and past behind me to go get something. I tried to say Hi but she just passed me by. For some reasons I moved up two rows in seats with my mom after I finished my first box and then I opened my second box. The last thing i remember in the dream is eating cracker jacks YUM!!

Me and you were at like Summerfest, it was a festival downtown, and I guess we were with school. We had been looking at something and before you know it, we walked back toward the entrance and everyone was leaving. We thought that was weird so we followed out to find out what was going on. Tons of cops and security. Some of the teachers from school were stationed at a desk. We were both right outside festival grounds and right before an overpass freeway at the same time, but traffic had been shut down. I left you for a second to ask a teacher what was going on, Ms. Hartung told me that everyone thought that the terrorists were going to attack the major cities today and told me to move along. The skyline was magnificent when I looked up, of downtown. Somehow, we were way back behind it now to see all of it. There were two overpasses being used to move people along, without cars for some reason. The other overpass, cars were still going downtown, which was weird.

Someone told me to go onto the empty overpass and look down at this building right beside it and make sure the terrorists didnt bomb it, it had three golden bison statue on top for some reason. I looked up in the sky and saw a plane in the clouds, but it wasn't attacking. But then a missle came through the clouds and struck downtown. Nobody reacted but me. I freaked and jumped back onto the other overpass. Another missle struck, and then another closer by. Everything was falling apart and people finally realized it was happening. It felt so real though, like they had actually decided to attack us. I checked the date and it said 9/18 or 9/10 i'm not sure.
The overpass was starting to crumble down, and I didn't know where you were. For some reason, I wanted to take a picture of myself. As I opened my phone, I saw a picture of you and then one of me, and then the overpass crumbled and I was falling and I knew I wouldn't see you again. And then it was weird, it was like I died. The only thing I remember after that is swimming underwater with two other guys into this lagoon over and over and over. Then I woke up. I was on the overpass again. It was like... a camp out and it was standing back up. It wasnt used for cars anymore. I looked around and the skyline was demolished. I remember being so mad because some people came by and they weren't reacting to the devastation at all. I felt like I was dreaming maybe but it was so real. I had 'died' but I was still here. I remember calling you and you asking where I had been, and me saying 'I just want to show you a picture' and I looked at the picture and I had really long hair. I started to cry because that picture was still on my phone, and I had taken it as I thought I would die. I yelled and then I woke up.

I had a beautifully vivid lucid dream. 10/10. I wasn't even trying to have an LD last night (I went to bed at like 12:50 AM instead of 9 PM). The dream must've happened at like 7 AM, and it is the only one from last night. It was pretty long, my longest LD ever also. If you see a *, I have provided an explanation at the bottom.

NON-DREAM | DREAM | LUCID

I can't remember anything about the dream before I got lucid. I was under a wide and tall tunnel, almost like an overpass (but with no street on it). There were like six to seven people standing around me, and I had the feeling that they were my human family*. They told me that my faery family* was outside, out from under the tunnel/arch/overpass thing. I flew out of the tunnel to meet them, but first I flew overhead. Just outside of the tunnel was a parallel street, and down the street to my left, it turned into a sort of downtown city (like with large apartment buildings and things like that). The place in front of me was like a village square, with fountains, plants, and "cement tiles" on the ground (and they were sort of torn up with age). I can't really explain about the "tile" thing, but that is what they looked like. Apparently, there was also a very large swimming pool type-thing. When I flew over it, I dropped down into the water a few times (I'm not really that good at flying). Then I landed on the sidewalk parallel to the road. My faery family* was there, and my faery uncle (at least I think he was my uncle) was in a white buttoned up shirt and black tie and he looked sad. They all looked sad, and I got the feeling that his wife was hurt or killed. They were going to get in a black limo to go someplace (I guess the hospital), and I was about to go with them, but I didn't. I turned around and started walking down the sidewalk towards the downtown part. A short girl appeared to my right. She had blonde hair. I decided to walk with her. Then I told her that I was dreaming and that she wasn't real, that she was just in my dream. She just said, "Mmhmm" (yes). I grabbed her arm and asked her how she felt, knowing that she was just a DC and not real. She said that she liked it. I just started thinking that she was really dumb to think that. I pulled her arm and tried to stretch it. It stretched to like five feet and she just giggled. Her arm when back to where it was before and we continued walking. Then we met a non-famous, younger version of Raven-Symoné. Apparently she lived in one of the apartment buildings like on the second floor. I don't ever remember walking up the stairs, but when we got up to the balcony, I pulled them both aside and told them that I was dreaming and that I could give them anything that they wanted (because I'm just generous like that and I wanted to give non-real people something ). I tried to give the blond girl faery wings. I imagined that they were lavender, gossamer, and pointy, but they ended up really weird looking: they were dark burgundy, rounded, floppy, and looked like they were made of satin instead of flesh. I knew they were never going to work or flap, but she didn't seem to mind; she loved them. Raven got all giddy and hugged me. During the hug, she said she wanted a watch. I imagined one on her, and when we came out of the hug, she had a black watch on her left wrist. Then we went in her apartment. She had an older brother and a dad that lived there. When we first went in the door, we went down a hallway and into a small living room. The hallway continued in front of us, to where I supposed the bedrooms and bathroom were. Just to my left was a couch against the wall. Raven's brother was in the middle seat, and her dad was on the seat farthest from me. I sat next to the brother. To my right was a love seat which the blond girl took at seat at, and Raven sat in front of my on the coffee table. I told the brother and dad what I told the girls, and that when I woke up that they would all be gone and I would never see them again. The boys looked at me like "Are you kidding me?" I said that I was sorry they would cease to exist and that it really wasn't my fault. Then I almost woke up, but I pulled myself back into the dream. Raven was now next to the blond girl on the love seat. Behind that love seat was a window with the curtains pulled. I focused on the details on the curtain to stay in the dream and it worked. I then stood up and went to the corner that was to my front left, where there was a large flat screen TV. I touched it like a touch screen and moved things around on it. Raven's dad looked amazed and shocked at me, asking me how I did it. I told him since it was my dream that I could do whatever I wanted. I proceeded to a table to the dad's left, where a bottle of blue liquid was sitting. I picked it up and stretched the bottle like I did the girl's arm. It almost feels like silly putty when you stretch something. The dad's jaw dropped. For some reason, I took a drink of the blue liquid, then spit it in a nearby trashcan (because for some reason I thought that it was poison, like some type of cleaner. When I was spiting it out, I almost blacked out of the dream, like 3 times worse than before, but again I pulled myself back. I went back to the bottle and poured it. I made it pour up instead of down and Raven's dad was dumbfounded. I looked at Raven and told her that I wanted to see her in my next dream, to remember me(as an experiment to see if it would work; See here). She shook her head yes, and I woke up in SP. I lay there a few minutes, wanting to see if I could WILD, but I really wanted to just write that amazing dream in my dream journal. It was a good thing I did, too, because it was 8:30 AM.

* Okay, I have this thing where I want to shapeshift into this character that I made. She is half faery on her father's side and half human on her mother's side. That's why she has two families described the way I described them. The faery side of the family aren't little tiny faeries like Tinker Bell; they are human sized and have wings, described like how I wanted the blond girl's wings to look like.

I am so happy! This is like my seventh lucid dream, and I guess 7 is my lucky number! ;D

Scalpel's Sword

My friend and I were climbing a mountain. It was supposed to be like Mt LeConte, but it was a lot steeper and treacherous. There were more places to lose footing and fall off the side of the mountain and more things to have to navigate.

We made it to a section of the mountain designated as the top for those who could not continue. It was the true top of the mountain, but it wasn't the highest point. To get to the highest point, one would have to climb on man made structures, like an obstacle course.

Having reached the true top, we looked up and saw what looked to be a net above us. A little bit passed us were rocks that were attached to the net. It looked dangerous to walk under.

My friend was really paranoid about the rocks falling, so I went first to show her that it would be OK.

Once we made it pass that, there was a wooden staircase that went both up and down. I remembered from another dream, maybe a year ago, that if you went down then you would come into a room with a screaming lady who was trapped and clawed things into the wall.

I'm trying to search for this dream in my DJ...but my DJ is becoming too big to easily search for things anymore. That is really annoying. >.> Anyways, I wish I could prove it, but I find it really cool now how some dreams are just coming together like a puzzle.

I continued to climb up the stairs. I came into a room I had to climb up awkwardly placed stairs, three feet apart, to press a button and open a box that had a hint for me.

Once I had done so, I read the hint. It read: Go into the bar. Tell the woman that you would like a Scalpel's Sword. Be ready to fight.

I found the bar. I looked at the woman, and whispered Scalpel's Sword. She knew exactly what I meant, and leaped up from the counter and we began fighting, I woke up though.

SHAPESHIFTING!!!

I WISH I remembered ALL of this dream.

I had VERY high lucidity in this dream, and VERY high clarity.

I was thinking about what I should do with this lucid dream, when I realized that I didn't have any lucid goals!

I didn't know what the Nightstalker Task was, I didn't know what the Task of the Month was, I didn't feel like going to the MDRC , so I had to decide something.

I decided on practicing shapeshifting.

I was standing in the grass, looking at my shadow.

I watched as my shadow became the shape of a lion or a tiger, and felt the transformation. It was wicked.

There was someone else there with me, but I forget who.

I remember running around as a lion/tiger, feeling how strange this felt.

Parasitic Invasion

I was in the store with my mother. I kept finding interesting pins on the ground, one said "It's all about the PLUR!" I liked the pin, and stuck it to my shirt.

I was heading back...When everything went silent. Background noise - GONE. Everyone around me - FROZEN.

It was like something out of The Happening.

I stood there for a moment, completely confused. I did a reality check but everything came back normal.

The lights flickered.

I slowly continued to walk until I found mom. She was not frozen like the other people.

I tried talking to her, and then the power went out. Everything was black.

When the lights came back on she was gone, and standing in front of me was a woman with worms coming out of her. She looked like Medusa, but all over.

I decided to GTFO at that point.

The dream skips, and now I am living in a hotel with a friend of mine. The parasitic worm invasion has spread and we are trying to keep it out. It's dark outside, and dark inside. The power has gone out, making visibility dim.

We hear creaking, warping noises coming from outside the room. We know that they are near us.

In the darkness I barely see the worm infested humans creeping towards us.

We decide it is time to go and set this HOTEL ON FIRE.

We quickly grab our things in the darkness and try to run past the masses of worms. We almost make it out, when I realize that I have to go back in to get my car keys.

I'm having trouble running quick enough. We put a bomb in the hotel so that it would explode at any minute. I'm worrying about my friend outside the hotel, hoping she is safe.

I grab my keys and dart out the door. I look back at the hotel...and instantly wish I hadn't.

The hotel...the entire freaking thing...was covered in GIANT worms. Worms that were boring through the walls and coming back out to get us.

I unlock my car door...But my friend has been seized by one of the worms!

I grab a (convenient) blowtorch and blast the worms away. We pile in the car, and the hotel EXPLODES and leaves behind a giant mushroom cloud.

We drive into the city, where nearly half of the population is infested. We decide to gather some healthy individuals so we can band together and fight them off.

We kill masses of parasitic worm people, until I lock eyes with a girl sitting on a small set of stairs with a few other people. She has curly red hair, and looks to be in her 20s.

She instantly gets up and rushes over to us. She attacks skillfully and we realize that she is the creator of the parasitic worm invasion. If we can kill her, this madness can end.

Once we finish her off, her skill shrivels and we find a key in her heart. It looks as if someone stabbed it into her. We wonder what the key unlocks.

Zukin or Zukin?

I'm at Joann Fabrics. I'm deciding whether I should cosplay Queen Zukin or Evil Zukin. Evil Zukin is cuter by miles, but I really like the story behind Queen Zukin. I have trouble deciding.

My DEILD attempts seem pretty crappy for now. Although I will never give up, I think i'm doing something wrong which causes me to fail multiple times. I'm always waking up and not moving but I can't seem to enter a dream. I might ask for help around here, since everyone is so nice .

Dream 1: This morning all my dreams seemed to be somewhat connected to each other into 4 dreams. The first is me in a huge stadium. I am playing hockey with my team des Québécois. For a roster change I am offered to trade one of my players for a guy in the Mexican team. They all wear yellow shirts and one looks like an actor in a shampoo commercial. I refuse, saying out loud that a caucasian with make more sense for my team. This pisses them off and connects to my second dream.

Dream 2: I wake up, fall back to sleep and find myself in a huge labyrinth which I believe to be an airplane (although it isnt, its more a huge square). The mexicans decide to act out an act of terrorism on my plane and want to crash it. In the corner, they light up a bomb while a female voice screams to me to stop them and that they are lighting the fuse. As I am about to stop them, I am now out of the plane and on the ground looking at they sky as an actual plane explodes and crashes. My uncle, me and a baby (my newborn cousin, maybe?) are the only survivors. This chains on to my second dream.

Dream 3: This time, I manage to not move when I wake up but fail to enter a dream lucidly. I fall back alseep and now my uncle and I are in survival mode. The scene is now very apocalyptic. I tell him we will need to rationalize the little food we have (he is carrying a shopping cart) but he says we have plenty. We go in a grocery store and stash up on food. Then were at my home and out of nowhere a giant grey spider lands on my patio. Its not very scary and I am more confused then frightened. My uncle attacks it but then he takes it in his arms and carries it to the pool next to where I am standing (the spider has gotten way smaller but is still huge). I am about to get into the pool but as my dream fades out, I become for a splitsecond before ending up bck in my bed.

Once again, I do not move a muscle but simply look stupid in my bed. I even try to imagine the dream scene in my head and feel the water, but no luck.

Had trouble sleeping thanks to insomnia. Can't remember anything dream related. :/

It seems that my dreams tend to make patterns of two. I just noticed that whenever I have a bad dream, I go lucid to make it stop. This did not happen this time. I was in a Brink map... It was the same terrain as terminal, but a different appearance. It seemed similar to the place with ramps in Jak II. Video games have been frequent in my life, so it only makes sense for my dreams to contain them. Me and a friend were making our way to a location, we wanted to get laid. We used parkour all the way to the hot springs where many attractive Asian women were. We were about to make ourselves comfortable, when something happened that made the women want to leave. I don't quite recall what this event was, but we left the vacant hot springs to find more women. After searching, we could not find anymore, and the dream changed. I was in... New Vegas? Wilfred, the dog from a TV show, (guy in a dog suit with a British accent that everyone else sees as a regular dog) was leading a HUGE pack of dogs into the Ultra-Luxe Casino and hotel. I, of course, was Bryan from the show. I ran up to Wilfred and talked him out of it. He told me one day, I would regret this. Everything went black, and a white text came into sight. It said, "Three years later". I was in Wilfred's owners house, and I knew Wilfred was dead. However, there was some sort of chute for something, and when I opened it up, a Yao Guai Wilfred was sitting inside. For those of you that don't know, Yao Guai look like this: http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...VB7z4ggAiZhGfx And this. http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...IHyGr0-jPA4gTQ

I took Yao Guai Wilfred on, in a Soul Calibur 2 fashion. I used several throws on him, kicked his ass out of the arena. I then had to use bombs on two opponents I was fighting at the same time. I used bombs to kill them, and won, then woke up.

Below are three powerful techniques I have personally used to induce lucid dreams:

1) TAPE PLAYER METHOD

Use a tape player or MP3 player with your voice recorded on it that tells you to check to see if you are dreaming, or that reminds you to realize you are having a dream. Turn on the player when you go to bed or even better turn in on when you awaken in middle of the night or when you wake up from just having a dream. When you go back to bed after awakening you are more than likely to have a dream. I usually record the affirmations about one minute apart so when I go into REM sleep the tape recorder reminds me to check if I am dreaming. At first you may have difficulty falling asleep since every minute or so you will hear the affirmations, but soon you will become accustom to the sound of your voice and fall asleep. Your voice on the tape recorder will remind you check to see of you are dreaming while you are having the dream and will help you become lucid.

2) REALITY CHECKS

Check to see if you are dreaming during the day while awake, especially if you find yourself in an odd or unusual situation. Checking to see if you are dreaming while awake will translate into doing a reality check while you are dreaming. Don't pinch yourself to see if you are dreaming, or jump in the air to see if you can fly: All that may happen if you do this type of reality check in a dream is you may feel a slight pain from the pinch, or if you jump in the air and try flying you may end up just coming back down from the jump. The best way to do a reality check is to ask the question:

"How did I get here?"

Since the dream environment is constantly changing and evolving, if you are dreaming you will suddenly find yourself in a dream but will not be able to logically retrace the steps you took to get there. If you can retrace your steps you are more than likely not dreaming. However if you cannot retrace your steps you are having a dream.

3) LUCID DREAM AFFIRMATIONS

Repeat the following affirmations before bed or when you wake up from just having a dream, but plan on going back to sleep right away:

» I awaken within my dreams
» My waking consciousness goes with me into my dreams
» I am consciously aware of my dreams
» Lucid dreaming is easy for me
» When I dream, I am aware I am dreaming
» I remember my lucid dreams
» I have the power to control my dreams
» I do reality checks while dreaming
» I notice the dream signs that help me become lucid
» I become consciously aware of odd occurrences in dreams
» I am determined but detached while dreaming
» My dream intention is strong
» I visualize becoming lucid in my dreams

Weirdness...

I'm with my friend going to some tryouts place for an exclusive team. get into some gymnasium and the sport turns out to be curling... I give it my best because i really want to be better than everyone else for some reason.

Later I see my friend Mia who is unloading stuff outside her tanning salon and now for some reason I am drunk and can barely stand while I try to talk to one of my old friends who I havnt seen in a while. I'm trying as hard as I can to not make an ass of myself but I end up doing it anyways.
