Baphomet

My and Waking Nomad are our Shadows selves. We are riding Wolf motorbikes. We are dressed like Bikers and whipping chains around. We are Attacking a large red Devil guy and he has the name Baphomet above his head.

Music

I am listening to a piece of music and I get pulled into the music. now i am in the dream of the song Cruising along in a truck that's driving down a river. I make the truck transport all over the place... The whole dream was pretty abstract and hard to describe. A voice in my head says that this is what the architecture of music looks like.

Dog WTF

I am outside in some place running away from giant dog like thing like you see from the Avatar movie. I find a mound of dirt hidden behind a log. i hide there and one of the dogs crashes into me and then keeps running.

I get Transported to my house. Asuka And data are there. Asuka is merged with H again WTF? On the table are pictures of Cacophony. There's a before and after picture of her. the after one she looks normal without any wacky hairdos. In the picture she smiles at me and we have a conversation like i am talking on a webcam with her.

Wrong room

I am with my brother and Asuka in some weird building. We enter a room where a certain meeting is to take place. something like AA. At one point I ask where the washroom is and I realise is aw my brother already go into one. I leave the room after a while and enter a big hall that's a high rickety bridge that I try to cross.

I was a witcher like in the video game. I have a group I am traveling with. We were in a building exploring. I went back. I used a metal pan as a mirror to look behind me for some reason I don't remember. I was cautious. I walked slowly and carefully. I could hear my foot steps and nothing else. I made my way to a room. there were others witchers there. I had a brief discusion. I opened the door and looked out. I could see werewolves lurking about. We subconsciously agreed to attack. I charge forward while drawing my sword. I cut and slash and kill one. the dream changes to 3rd person as if I am playing a video game. I touch the screen on the next one to attack. No mouse. Killed it. I switch back to 1st person. I see the others holding a evil zombie like girl upside down by the legs. There are two girls the same. two witchers on each. Someone keeps saying look at the pretty bikini girl. The girls are wearing bikini underwear and miniskirts. being upside down I see all. Someone pinches up a part of the vagina. I know I must kill but I cant. I walk to the other and and someone puts a blade deep inside her vagina to the hilt. I am disgusted and saddened. I turn to the other. I reach out for her and she shrinks into a barbie doll. I throw the doll to a big stationary monster. It is a blob of flesh with stubby arms, no legs and all teeth. It grabs the girl and eats her head first. I can hear bones crunching and flesh tearing. I wake up suddenly.

I was with some boys and Tempi's younger brother. (who may or may not exist) Tempi was a kid and there was this room. She was moving his bed out the the room and through a window that went into another bedroom. She was giving away his bed to her friend. He was so upset.

#1: non-lucid

I was at a lock on the waterway where my dad works, with a friend of mine. We're sitting on the grass, and she has a tiny turtle that she's feeding pieces of bread. I go with her as she carries the turtle over to the side of the lock and puts it down in the water. She tears off pieces of bread and throws them into the water. The turtle is eating them, and small fish swim up to eat too. More and bigger fish show up, and for a moment I see a piranha. I'm afraid that if she stops throwing bread, the piranha will start eating the other fish or her turtle.
Even bigger fish start coming up, the water is completely full of them, big bass. My mom shows up, and takes some bread from my friend, and tosses a few pieces onto the concrete beside the water. I ask what she's doing and she says that she needs to get dinner. A huge bass flops up onto the concrete, and starts flipping itself further from the water. There was grass in that direction before, but now there's a long, but shallow, empty swimming pool. It was full of dirt and dead leaves, and the fish landed in it and stopped moving.
I cross to the other side of the lock, and see a bunch of oyster shells stuck to the side, just above the water and clustered up high, and most of them are empty. The ones that aren't are still open, and I can see the pink skin inside breathing. There's a sign beside them that says "a clam shell contains air and 14 breathing mechanisms."
I look across the lock at my friend, who has coaxed two sea lions up out of the water, and holding some bread up above on of their heads, trying to get it to reach up its nose to eat

#2: lucid
When the dream started, I was going through the mail in my kitchen, and found that I had been mailed a magazine. Inside the front cover was a message that said "if you want to know more, meet me in Vaughn" and there were instructions on which bus I should take, and a finished with "More instructions will follow." It was signed Deb Graves, who was a strange woman that I met(in real life) at a gallery opening recently. I was reading this message while sitting in my living room, and when I looked up my mom was on the couch with me, and I showed her the message.
She took the magazine from me and seemed to read it, but when she looked back at me, she just started berating me. My mom acting like that is actually a pretty common dream sign for me, and it prompted me to do a reality check. I looked at my hands, and wasn't entirely convinced, so I pinched my nose and I could breathe. I stayed calm through the realization, and immediately started rubbing my hands together and looking around me, which brought the details of the room into focus.
I didn't want to stay with my dream mom, she was still yelling, so I left the house. It was too bright, I needed to stabilize, so I bent down and ran my hands over the grass, which was wet. My mom had followed me out of the house though, so I started moving down the street. I was trying to will her away, tried to tell her that she wasn't real, I wasn't really sure how to get rid of her, but nothing I tried worked.
She started trying to convince me that I was actually awake. Specifically, she said, "I know what you dont know. I know that if you looked at your hands right now, they'd look just like my hands."
I started running from her, and I remembered reading a post on the forums about running really quickly on all fours. I started running on my hands and feet and it felt completely natural and smooth. I kept saying "faster, faster" and every time I did I felt my speed increase. The world was streaking by.
When I stopped, she was still right behind me. I decided to try to fly. I closed my eyes and imagined what it would feel like to lift off the ground, and then it was actually happening. I started to drift upwards, and I was feeling thin and light, like I was transparent. I tried to visualize a forest before I opened my eyes, hoping that I'd be flying over it when I did. Instead I was still over the street, and my mom was clinging to my legs.
I drifted back down, set her down on the ground, and she let go without struggling. I lifted up higher and higher and started moving forwards. On the horizon, there were billowing swirls of bright yellow and dark blue, and I started moving towards them. The detail faded quickly before I woke up, but it didn't feel abrupt.

I SEE Professor X in the mirror. He tells to wake up the mutants.

There was some new online game that AJ had, we were playing it on his laptop, it was a go-kart like game and I was controlling the kart from a 3rd person perspective. AJ had a new graphics card it was attached to a USB port on top of the computer and it was yellow and in the shape of a tape measure and it had the Can You Run It? Logo in a circle on the card..

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

I was at some sort of event and I think I was in a costume, some woman was bragging about how some man was rich. I ask her to follow me to show her how rich I could be.. I led her behind a wooden sign and said something like, "JARVIS, open please.." and the back opened up revealing hundreds or thousands wooden thumb tacks which I claim were from the Wild West era..

I grabbed a handful and later went to the computer to start auctioning them off, I saw a video or a series of images describing the tacks something like "The people of the Wild West eventually found out that they had no more need for the tacks."

I heard that they were made of "Oakwood" or something like that...

Type: regular dream.
Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Notes:
The problem with continually trying to WILD is that you end up getting a glut of sleep paralysis-related dreams, which usually aren't lucids. But this one was just effing scary.

I was in my supposed room, a small bedroom with dark blue walls and a queen-sized bed with a mint green comforter. I was lying on my stomach, on top of the comforter without a pillow, but with my arms under my head. In real life they would've lost circulation, but in the dream they didn't. I attempting to get sleep paralysis to WILD, but I wasn't getting anywhere. I got off the bed and lay down on the steel blue-colored carpet, my arms under my head again. My eyes were open the whole time.

Immediately after settling down, I felt tingling, and then I felt something sitting on top of me. Then it proceeded to almost lightly hug me, as I could feel it wrapping around my chest and back. It got off and then I heard a slight metallic flick. My heart began to beat very fast, almost coming through my chest; I could feel it trying to get out.

I then felt something sharp dragging along my back in a straight line. It stopped after a few moments, and then it happened again, a few inches down, parallel to the other line. Then, it happened twice more, but this time the lines were perpendicular to the previous two. It almost hurt, but there wasn't any true discernible pain. The whole time I tried to ignore it, because I knew it wasn't real (not to mention it wasn't even sleep paralysis but a dream!).

It ended and I woke up for real.

Wow. Five good recalls in one single night. A new high for me! They were decently vivid too, at least the longer ones were, and a few of the fragments were literally flash in the pan. What makes me really happy about this is that I did not perform WBTB. I simply remembered that many different dreams upon waking. Hopefully I'm getting close! I'm RCing about 10 times a day, on a guess. As well as perusing the forums occasionally. Every time I RC I repeat to myself "If I'm dreaming, I will become lucid" and I look around the room for any signs of dreaming. Does that, coupled with my daily DJ, seem like enough to incite a DILD?

Anyways: onto the dreams.

I'm walking through some sort of in between that goes from rural Illinois to downtown Chicago. The goal is to meet a bunch of friends as well as my wife's dad at a place to eat dinner. We are trying to decide where to eat when i decide that a steakhouse sounds good. So I go through this in between and end up in a little long room with two wide red couches and two wide tvs. It doesn't say it anywhere but I know this is a Blackhawks fanclub.

I wee Vern there and we decide to go on ahead. He asks me where I want to eat. I think a moment and decide on this steak house. With my steak knife with me for some reason we set out to walking out of the club and down the street.

And now for sole reason I'm doubling back. I've walked back through the in between to go get my friends. I'm looking for Jake Chris and Lawrence. For some reason I know they have begun to cross the I'm between, which now looks like a corn field, so I head back to cross it.

I try to wade through it but it is too thick now. I decide to walk along side it instead and i soon make it halfway across when suddenly Chris, wearing dress pants a button up and a tie, emerges and greets me. Jake is right on his heels. We have a short discussion about some rapper before I tell them what's for dinner.

Nate Phil and I are hanging out in the basement of what I assume is my parents house. There is a punching bag hanging from the ceiling and the other posts have wrap around them for more martial arts.

Phil and Nate are hanging out when I come in with my laptop and a fresh recording of one of our songs but this Time with drums on it. I start to play it and Phil is instantly annoyed cause he is tired of hearing that song over and over again.

I play it anyways and he says it is actually pretty cool outside of the timing issues. As he is saying this I am tending to a small hydroponic garden in a tent. The floor of the tray in the tent is covered in a milky orange substance. I start cleaning it out when the guys decide they want to go outside.

So we do and it's really late and dark out. I bring my laptop with me but through the walls I can hear the music we were blaring. It's avenged sevenfold. I go back inside a few times to turn it down.

Eventually my mom comes out for a minute after we head back in and says she will wake me up at nine. Phil is closed to passing out when he, alarmed, asks if they have to leave then as well. I tell him no and not to worry about it and to enjoy sleeping in.

Fragment. I'm with some group of people when this creature called the Machi appears. It looks like a monster of the Seachen People out of the Wheel of Time series. It looks like a dragon but the size of a horse. Someone kills it and I remember getting very sad.

Leah and I are watching some sort of talk show with Keanu reeves on it. There are a bunch of kids that he starts to play fight with. We are watching the event from overhead and at an angle. Keanu is diving around and throws a marker at this little girl. It nails her in the forehead and she drops like a bag of rocks. I remember laughing in my dream. This happens to three kids.

Fragment. I dream I make myself admin on Militate.

I dream I'm driving up some road at night and turning on corners. I'm out in the country. There is a car right behind me. I have my laptop out and am trying to catch a WiFi signal. I finally do catch one and I pull over. The car behind me passes.

Bill Murrey and Andy McDowell having a conversation she asks him to house sit and he goes off on how that he is a man and doesn't want to be seen as a chic,.she then goes off on how she has done stuff for him and that she can't believe he's so selfish. He likes her but won't do it. They are standing around houses that are in my neighborhood.

I am shopping in a store like toys r us and I am shopping for video games I have a stack of video games and I purchase the games when I do some kids come by and see all the games and I get the feeling they want to take them. They eye my games as the basket of paid for games lay on the ground. I pick them up and for some reason feel like putting them behind the glass shelves will make them safe. I saw madden and spiderman game in the pile. I could have become lucid in this one.

I was in a busy chocolate store that looked like the picture below, but it had more nooks and crannies.

Outside the store I could see a strip of average-looking mall, but I didn't go outside. After all, I was looking at different packages of chocolates. I looked for a few moments and then saw a package of milk chocolate Lindt truffles. I picked it up and began to look for a cash register. I couldn't find one, so I decided to shoplift. There was an exit on the left-hand wall of the store; it was a square archway that led into another room; more specifically, the store (or whatever it was) beside it.

I walked through the door, briefly looking behind me as I did, and walked right into a swimming pool area with small tiles on the floor and a few people swimming around. Standing in the doorway, I then opened the package and proceeded to unwrap the very realistic chocolates. The plastic wrapping was twisted at the ends of each chocolate ball, just like in real life. I popped one into my mouth and ate it, then I took another one. This one was pretty much melted, so when I pressed on it just a little to unwrap it, it broke in half and chocolate spilled out onto the floor.

I then heard shouting behind me. "Get back here!" I heard a man say in a rather deep voice, and this was the signal to get out now. I saw a door on the other side of the room, with one square window on either side. On the other side of the windows were trees and sky, so I knew it was the exit to the building. I briskly walked around the pool, continuously looking behind me, and then got to the door. I turned the shiny brass doorknob and when I pulled on the door, it caught, as if a chain was stopping it from opening on the other side.

I turned around as the man, dressed in a suit, walked closer and closer...

Had a bad dream about a haunted television set. Woke up and tried to go back to change it but even in that fuzzy half-dream state the narrative of the dream had way more control than I did. Bothered me enough that I lost the rest of the night.

August 23, 2010,

Note to reader: James is a very old friend of mine we used to be really close now we only talk every once in a while. He seems to be one of my dream signs.

I keep a physical journal with me where I usually write my dreams but here's my first one on DV. I had 4 dreams that I could remember last night:

First Dream (Lucid I think):

I was in an empty room. I could recall it was the room in which I have done a lot of volunteer and community service. It was completely empty and it was just me there. I remember seeing some other teens that volunteered with me there, they came out of nowhere. But that's about all I remember. I was fully aware that I was dreaming for about 1 second then I woke up. It was a bit hazy. I went back to sleep and entered my 2nd dream which was non-lucid.


Second Dream (Non-lucid):

It took place in a forest, kind of like in avatar except greener with more light, the trees were normal size and there was a road through the middle that James, some girl (don't remember who), my father and I were walking through.



All of the sudden we were all ambushed by some native americans. They seemed to look like mayans except they had weapons like guns and such. They shot the girl and James and they both fell to the ground. I turned to see 2 mayans pointing a gun at my father. I yelled "NO!" and I reached out and I must have used telekenisis to grab a gun from one of the mayans. I shot one of the mayans and turned and the other had shot my father. I killed the one who shot my father, I shot him right in the chest. Then I noticed I was surrounded..and everything went black. I woke up (in the dream) next to all the people who were shot. We were all still alive. Apparently they were only tranquilizers..I felt as though I was caged, tied up or something and we couldn't move. We witnessed an entire city of these mayans, it was night time and there were tons of torches and music and a celebration going on.



I could easily spot who ran this place..a giant. It was a giant woman about 100x the size of you and me. She was a statue that could move around and on her back she had 2 sheiths that held 2 giant swords. She wore leather and had a giant refined saphire jewel centered on her chest. All the people here worshipped her. She was a bitch! We all tried to escape and they caught us and then they made us eat horrible food and they made us watch them torture some other people that they had caught earlier. Then an army of regular people came and fucked up the mayan city with tanks and soldiers and mortars etc. and we escaped. We ran down the road we came from and eventually we were far enough that it was safe. We went back into walking, which brings me to my 3rd dream.

Third Dream (Non-lucid):

We were walking down the road and eventually we came to what seemed to look like New York City. At this point it was only me, James, and a girl, I can't remember who she was. When James and I found out we had Spiderman's powers, we started showing off to impress the girl and so I made one of those web balls that Spiderman used to make and I threw it at James and he threw one back and we were fooling around for a while. We were web swinging through the city and there was a huge Godzilla. Like HUGE. It was roaring and destroying the city by crushing cars, small buildings and people with its feet and shooting power beams from its mouth. James and I dodged enough of the beams and made it safetly right behind Godzilla, inside a parking garage. There was a big emerald that the Godzilla was guarding behind its foot, James went to go get it, and I made a noise on purpose so the Godzilla would stomp on James. He did and James wasn't hurt at all. So I went to go get the emerald, and I look up and there is a huge Godzilla foot right above me (INSIDE the parking garage?) and it came down and crushed me. This is when I entered my 4th dream.

Fourth Dream (Non-lucid):

This dream doesn't make sense to me at all...we were on the roof of the parking garage and godzilla was gone and we were playing soccer and some indian kid was telling me that if he had done the soccer moves that i was doing in real life, he would have broken a bunch of limbs in a video game. Then there was a birthday party and everyone was wearing costumes and James and I didn't have any costumes, so we went to some closet and on the way there I saw this kid Tyler Ellwood, which I dont really know at all but he goes to my school, and he was wearing some stupid looking overalls. We got to the closet and james picked out the same overalls, there were a bunch of the same overalls hung up in the closet, then there was one standing out, and I took it and it was a Super Mario costume! All of the sudden Super Mario music was playing and I was head banging to it with the costume in my hand. Then it stopped and then I opened to costume to put it on and there was like rotting rice in it for some reason..so I dropped it, and turned to James and I was like what the f*** is that?? Rotting rice?? And he responded..dude..I don't know..then I woke up this morning at around 11 AM.

Type: DILD.
Lucidity: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Vividness: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Notes:
This one feels pretty similar to my last recorded dream. The vividness decreased when I became lucid, but I still managed to complete the evasive TOTM and witness a terrorist attack.

This dream started off with me being on a long rope of grassy hill. It was a hill that rose only ten or fifteen feet from the ground, so walking back down to the ground would take less than a minute. It was probably later in the day, but it had yet to become noticeably dark.

The rest of the land was flat and covered in grass, and you couldn't see anything in any direction except a road traveling along the base of the hill that led to a very nearby city. The tall buildings started at the end of the hill, so you can visualize how close the city was; I was right on the outskirts of it.

I looked around and suddenly became lucid, shouting "yes" rather excitedly and doing the nose-plug reality check, which obviously failed. But then, the dream suddenly decreased in vividness. Things became slightly hazy and the lighting became dim, although it was still light outside. I rubbed my hands for stabilization and touched the blades of grass on the ground, but it didn't help. So, still being on the hill and in no position to move, I decided to summon a white unicorn that I could ride. After all, I had no idea how long the dream would last but I didn't want to flip out. I used the familiar turn-around-and-expect-it-to-be-behind-me technique, and it was.

However, although it was a bit harder to see, I could tell that the unicorn was a bit smaller than normal. I don't know how to measure horses in terms of hands, but it was probably only four feet tall. It also looked like its skin was made of white velvet, and I couldn't see its muscles moving as it walked over to me. It looked sort of like a toy, but that didn't bother me. I got up on it with a jump and landed square on its back, without having to reposition myself.

There was no harness so I looked away, out towards the city, and then back again; there was now a single metal hoop around its neck. I rolled my eyes and expected it to walk forward, and it did. The dream still wasn't fading, so I got off it to do something else.

That was when I lost most of my lucidity, with only a bit lingering. The road on the base of the hill had now changed to a six- or seven-lane highway with cars traveling quickly along them. All the lanes were in one direction, I observed. Although I wasn't lucid, I then chose to summon a random DC to test my dream control. I tried to summon it, but nothing appeared. I looked at the sky and then, at that very moment, two large gray planes flew overhead at an incredible speed, directly into the buildings in the city. There was an explosion which blew me backwards quite a bit, and the city buildings were now on fire.

The dream ended.

Just a brief fragment today - working on getting back into lucid dreaming.

Myself and a few other people were playing a strange card game where you drew a card from a deck, and then acted out whatever was written on the card. Each card had a "medieval siege" theme telling you to do things like, "Attack the enemy's castle with catapults and ballistas." Sometimes they would also include a little story like, "You are a knight of the castle lord, and your family is starving do the siege."

The only card I remember reading was one I drew from the deck and said something about a harlot inside the city. However, when I tried to read the card, the words kept rearranging themselves on the card, making it impossible for me to determine what I was supposed. I handed the card over to someone else, and they looked similarly confused.

I had more dreams but this short sort of lucid dream is all I remember.

Sexy Time (dild)

I was at my Aunt's house and I was looking at my hands and they were normal but I knew I was dreaming. I went into the basement where I found a woman. This quickly turned into romance. I felt the dream slipping so I just focused on the woman but shortly woke up anyways.
