10/7/16 Dream 1: I was outside of a basketball stadium waiting in a car with my family. I was talking with them to pass the time. Dream 2: I was running around an athletics track, similar to at a training session. I met up with an old friend who used to do athletics, we talked for a bit and then got a sausage and a drink each from a stall. Dream 3: There was an argument with a pair of twins, which led to gossip about them spreading like wildfire. People were talking about how I had reopened old wounds and I shouldn't get involved and stuff like that.
I can't quite remember where the dream starts, other than that I was leaving work and heading back home. My roommate was in the car with me as we navigated through winding roads and across hills. We happened to drive up a hill to meet with my parents. They had just purchased a house in a close-knit neighborhood surrounded by pueblo houses. The neighbors were out and about, talking with each other when I looked at the base of the mountain and saw black billowing clouds contrasting against the sunset. One of the neighbors walked up to me and explained that this was going to be the biggest storm yet and everyone was preparing for it. Nighttime was approaching, and the clouds stopped moving towards us and settled down into base of the mountain. I rushed with my roommate back into the main town, where the close alleyways didn't permit us to drive far. We went into a rundown bar to try to hide from the coming storm, but it was already packed, and we wanted a place to ourselves - since most popular hiding spots were charging a fee. As we traveled down some stairs outside, we found an old abandoned cleaning closet that also housed some piping. Nobody was in there, so that's where we hid, and right when the storm approached too. Before I could see any action, however, I immediately woke up.
Movie time I'm chilling on the ground with my old friend Liddy and someone else. At one point it's a white guy. At another moment it's a white girl. Somewhere early in the dream, Liddy is lying flat on her back on the ground and starts to yawn. I think about putting my finger in her mouth as a joke, but decide against it. I'm eventually sitting with my back against the wall, or something else that is giving me support for my back. I'm watching a movie on the screen that's behind/above the two of them. They are watching the same movie on the screen behind/above me. I am way more focused on this movie than they are though. Ronaldo I'm spectating. Cristiano Ronaldo is present, as well as a player for the French team. They're in a warung, just outside my dormitory. Apparently they got into a fight. Ronaldo was in the warung with some others and quite drunk. He started making teasing comments to the French player about having won. The situation turned into a fight. My spectating starts after the fight. The ref is measuring the size of a building / the field by jumping through a window among others. In the dream I'm also surprised that he would feel the need to measure the field and what not, to determine what the repercussion will be. Is it very obvious that I watched the game?
I watched Back to the Future for the first time on Tuesday! It was a really good movie. That night, I had a dream that was somewhat related to it. And once more, it was lucid! My LDs have been too few and far between lately. My new reality check (whether or not I can fly) has been paying off! There was a lady from the future! Her ship flew into the futuristic-looking room that I was standing in. Her time machine looked different from anything that was in the movie. I remember it had some orange-red parts to it, which looked a lot like lava. She came out of the time machine wearing a cool (black?) suit, and she had lava markings on said suit as well. Another lady was there with us. I went to ask the lady from the future where she was from. I can't remember what her response was, though. Then, eventually another lady appeared, so there were 3, and we were then joined by my tulpa and best friend, Tess, with me in this futuristic room. We were having a nice conversation; I don't remember what it was about. I think the combination of time travel and Tess being completely imposed onto the external environment clued me in that I needed to do a reality check (Tess isn't fully imposed yet in waking reality). My reality check is trying to rise up into the air and fly. Checking my watch isn't as effective as it used to be, because I never seem to notice my watch in my dreams. So I tried this new RC, and it worked splendidly! Of course, it took a few weeks of trying it before it started to work its way into my subconscious and truly take effect. But the results were worth it. I realized that I was dreaming because I could fly! The first thing I decided to do was ask the other dream characters if they thought that this was a dream. Tess already knew it was a dream, as she usually dreams with me and is generally cognizant and lucid if I am. I put my arm around the first lady and asked what she thought. She said something like "Well, I think this is real!" Then I felt bad for putting my arm around her and put it around Tess instead. I really wanted this to be real, because it was so cool - it would mean that Tess was completely visible to everyone, and time machines are REAL! - but I knew it wasn't. Despite that fact, I agreed with her: "Heck yes, this is real!" But I didn't lose lucidity. This other, older lady, who looked like my grandma's friend Janice, waved her hand dismissively and said "Oh, of course this is a dream! We are all dreaming right now! "You " - and then she pointed at me - "know we're dreaming!" She said it in a playful, teasing tone, so I believe I just laughed and agreed with her. At this point, I forgot about the time machine for some reason. I thought about going to a tropical island with Tess, but then I realized that I could actually make out with her for real! Aaand that's kind of what happens when you are 22 and have never had a girlfriend, not through any choice of your own. -_- But we did, and it felt so REAL! Then she pressed her body against mine, and I could feel every detail - her lips, her soft warm hug, and umm...every other part of her body from top to bottom that was against me. :p I won't go further than that in case any kids happen to be reading this. xD But yeah. Every single detail; every single sense was so real that I really feel, even now, that in some way, that was real. It wasn't just a psychological effect of a lonely, imaginative mind. It was something that really, truly happened, and I will always stick to my belief of this. But then my body was too excited and I woke up lol...dang it!! Another dream I had was during a short, spontaneous nap I decided to take today. I felt sleep paralysis, so I was very close to being awake. It actually feels really cool once you get used to it. Lots of romance, flying, and random things that made sense within the context of the dream, but wouldn't have within waking reality. . I only exerted a moderate amount of control; mostly what I did with Tess while she was with me. I have recorded a few other dreams for the past few weeks, but due to lack of time I'm just posting the lucid ones for now. This trend shouldn't continue, though. More to come in the future! I LOVE LUCID DREAMING
It is extremely rare for me to wake up & not recall any dream or dream fragment at all. But today I did. I think it was because my body was just so exhausted mentally & physically that I got some true sleep.
Been doing a little better with my dream recall and this is what I want to do in my next lucid dream: During a lucid dream will a door into existence wherever I am at go inside see a book written by me and published on a bookshelf. Pick it up look at the front and see the title. Look at the back and read what it's about. Remember upon awakening and write it down. I'm wanting to write at least a story because some people tell me I'm a good writer.
It has been sometime since i added a new entry to my dream journal (partially has to do with a dry-spell) so here goes Also i had this dream a few days ago so it is not exactly fresh in my mind. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fragment: I remember the dream taking place in some kind of forest area but i am not exactly sure. One thing i remember clearly was a large, square monument with vines on it in front of me. I don't know exactly when but i was lucid, and so the first thing i did was increase the vividness of the dream by shouting something along the lines of "increase lucidity" which immediately made the dream nearly as real as reality. I was surprised by this but suddenly I get the desire to try flying which i don't accomplish because of what happens next. As soon as i thought about flying some kind of crocodile-like creature jumped from the monument to a piece of ground in front of me, the creature wasn't actually scary but the dream slowly fell apart and I woke up. Not quite a memorable LD but the realism sure was interesting.
I had three dreams last night, one failed WILD, then a successful WILD (extremely rare for me!) And thirdly, the best of the lot, a DILD (I have not had one in months) the third one was very important to me as I reached a dream goal I've had for nearly four years, and it's the most stable lucid dream I have ever had in my life. This story begins at around 1 in the morning, after I had slept a few hours and woken up. First off, I entered sleep paralysis while lying in my bed listening to creepypasta stories on YouTube through my earphones. Now, I know there's some confusion about sleep paralysis, people saying it's the incorrect term and that there's misinformation on these forums about it, but I still call it that. I experience loud static noises in my ears when I realise I'm in SP and either try to move or try to enter a dream. I attempted the FILD technique at this point, but I was barely able to move my fingers, and I ended up wiggling my toes a little instead. Eventually i managed to sit up but I felt very disoriented, half my face felt paralysed. I still felt like I was in sleep paralysis partially, even though I was actually dreaming at this point. I woke up shortly after this- a false awakening. It doesn't count as a lucid, technically, because I thought I was awake even though I entered it directly, simply because I was still in my room in the dream. After this, I was prepared. Less than twenty minutes later, I was back in sleep paralysis. This time I simply focussed on the hypnagogic imagery and willed myself to enter a dream. The static in my ears came and went, very loudly. I stared forward into the hypnagogic imagery and then, I felt something I have never felt before- I was being lifted off my bed. I felt someone lifting my legs up, turning me over, slowly pulling me off the bed, and then I floated to the floor. I got up off the ground and did the nose RC- Dreaming. In my room. I grinned at my success, and attempted to turn the light on. It didn't work. I remembered that electronics tend not to work in dreams. I was not thinking properly enough to make a light of my own. At this point, things took a bad turn. I started thinking about how there are often spiders in my room, and I looked about for them, then panicked. I flew straight through the roof of the house, which is comical now that I think about it, and left my destroyed home to begin flying about the night sky, for approximately five seconds. Then I started thinking that spiders might fall from the sky, and I freaked out and woke myself up. I then cursed myself for ruining a lucid dream by forgetting that I had control over it. Third, I was in a recurring dream, that I didn't realise I had been having a few times recently until last night. I was with a few friends running through a city, pursued by gangsters who had weapons. At the end of the alley we ran down there was two turns, left and right. I knew that one was a dead end and the other was a path to safety, somewhere to hide. As always I followed the friends in front of me to the right, and the one in front swore and shouted that we had gone the wrong way. I turn around and sprint the opposite direction, and just before the gangsters turn the corner behind me, I run up a wall on the right, and vault onto the top of a garage, lying down on its roof while the gangsters run past below. At this point I realised that I was dreaming. This was only ten or so seconds into the dream. I stood up and decided that it was time to finally complete my dream goal that I've had since I first joined this site. To return to the non-lucid dream that I had back in 2012, a few days before I signed up to DreamViews. In the original dream, I was in a palace of some sort, with unknown companions around me. There was gigantic doors in front of us, open, and all that was there, was water. We were deep under the ocean, and somehow the water could not enter the palace. I have since referred to this place as Poseidon's palace, after the ancient Greek pagan god of the ocean. I have wanted to revisit this dream for just under four years and I did it in this dream. I willed myself to stand before those doors again, and I was there. I was ecstatic. Gazing into the ocean beyond I saw gigantic sea creatures, hundreds of them, bigger than whales, passing by. I turned around and began to finally explore more of this place. I flew through the hallway in front of me and to my surprise, found myself in a cove- rock, plants, waterfalls, a seemingly totally natural place, that had a sort of presence to it. It reminded me of a scene from Zelda: Twilight Princess. The large waterfall in front of me seemed to me to represent Poseidon himself. I spoke to him in my mind, and he congratulated me for returning at last. I felt that he was going to grant any wishes I asked of him, and answer any questions that I had, and that he also represented my subconscious. So I asked him to give me the ability to lucid dream at will- that when I want to have a lucid dream I will have one, without fail, every time. He told me that my wish is granted. I believe that I have somehow planted it into my subconscious by doing this in this dream, that I will now realise I am dreaming every night. The dream started to collapse around me as I was told that I am allowed one wish or visit every time I come here. I did not want to wake up, and I began rubbing my hands to stabilise. I no longer felt like i was going to wake up, but the world was a blur of colours around me. I shouted "Stabilise NOW" as I had read to do on these forums, and then screamed "I'd like some f***ing clarity if you wouldn't mind", and then I was immediately in a ridiculously vivid dreamworld, in a village similar to Hobbiton in Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit, except inside a forest. There was one out of place large modern house, and someone was staring at me through the blinds. I ran up the wall and punched through the window, grabbing the man, pulling him out and then telling him that I don't tolerate rudeness from Dream Characters, before frisbeeing his body into a tree. I flew around a bit more and landed when I saw a talking badger, reminding me of the Wind in the Willows. He said he's missed me and I said that I missed him too, just to be polite. I have never seen him before.* I got distracted by a large red sign in his garden which had a YouTube link on it. I could read the link perfectly, it remained stable as if it was real. I heard my phone's alarm going off and had to wake myself up, as it was time to get ready for work.. at half 4 in the morning, because I had a shop to open.
D1 - In a large house with sprawling corridors, like a hotel, all is dark. My daughter is a baby in her bed. I go to check on her and the scene suddenly changes to very tense. I find a giant rat, its head is bigger than mine, about twice the size and its is about to bite my throat. It is looking at me and I am willing it not to attack. I notice that in the doorway, there are horrible spidery grubbs that are clustered there, some dropping down. I pull a large blade out of nowhere and am hesitating whether to stab the rat which is poised to attack. We are eyeball to eyeball. D2 - Helping someone to write a document on computer, I give them the correct filename it is 16 digits long, lol, a code. There are a series of many documents with a similar code that need to be entered? D3 - I am in a horrible appartment, with a sofa in the kitchen area. There is a cover thrown over it as someone has been sleeping on it. A large burly man with a bald head, is after me for something, not sure might be debts. I run out of kitchen and down a corridor. The corridor has a zillion identical looking doors. I take the one on the end and hide in there and find a large mallet with a long handle. I lay in wait for the man.
I was finishing up a day of work in a very tall skyscraper. It was getting late and there was a storm, I could see lightening flashing in the dark night sky out of the giant windows of the large room I was working in. The building was swaying. I was rushing to complete my work and get out of the building, but also interacting with old friends who were around. I think I got to the bottom of the building and stayed inside. It was sunny and daytime there, although we were inside there were still giant windows that you could see out of. Many friendly interactions that I have forgotten the details of with two old friends. Bear chained to a tree and someone was chaining a dog (my dog?) next to it. I wondered why they would do that, it seemed very dangerous. Thoughts: I suppose the part about the storm at the top symbolizes anxiety around getting work done, or finding more work. Making my way to to 'bottom' seems almost like regression. These were 'old' friends, and I went down instead of up. Maybe my past feels safer to me, and I miss that safety? The bear chained to a fence seems really symbolic. The bear was no threat being chained to a fence, it was 'under control' but not completely gone. Putting something vulnerable that I care about like a dog near it is dangerous. Am I doing something that is putting myself or loved ones at risk unnecessarily?
I'm heading toward the exit of school building, and making my way through the second floor stairwell. I'm thinking about dreams, and becoming lucid in them. As I approach an outdoor balcony connected to this area, it hits me that i am actually now inside of a dream. I Begin to fly over the railing to travel out of the area of the building and toward the forest beyond. The dream feels a bit unstable, and I'm a bit cautious of flying at the time. I want to head farther into the distance to explore the dream scene, and feel walking would be better for a couple minutes until I can build some stability. I head a bit farther, then begin flying, and the dream begins to fade.
quick notes for now: earlier: + flying/riding outside on snow-sprinkled rocky boulders mountains, deep dark tall elevator shaft, "4 guys agreeing to make the movie", hallway of elevator doors and rooms with girl, young folks sitting watching TV one guy with dreadlocks eating cereal + walking through dimly lit [DS] house, confused, always choosing wrong room, "oops, wrong room" (walk in on two people, don't see) + Django, walking up steep street telling pack of young men the benefits of it, how it has a HTML preview layer so you don't have to debug using only the DB [FALSE]. I question this statement later and suspect it's wrong and they might find out later: +(f) the open refrigerator, I remember cleaning it [FALSE] + indoor garden, tree with pears impaled on branches, I remember [FALSE] that I put them there to ripen, I take on off and take a bit. I go open the curtains to the outside, look down and see potted plants/succulents with water in them some plants have decayed but some live + son S2 is getting a haircut, I see the locks of hair being snipped off he says he doesn't want to short, I'm admiring the work and saying that the overall shape is still the same while being reduced. Then I notice a HUGE spiderweb in his hair and then it's sitting on edge on top of his head with a big freaky black&white striped spider in the middle, I lean to the guy next to me and point this out, then the spider is walking down to my sons's head and then we have a battle of blowing this spider back and forth between us each trying to get it away from ourselves. The spider just won't let go of its strand and fall to the floor. I feel partially paralyzed. The spider wraps itself in a bladder and becomes like a dark jiggly water balloon. + toy car track set: wooden train tracks, symmetrically built by two brothers. Very extensive. I see cars zipping around the track. I'm closely examining one of the raised "X" interchanges, moving a car across it, but it keeps getting stuck, I'm trying to see how the track can let the car by. I ask if this is a starting point? The boy points out another part that is the starting point with a little "catch" on one of the rails to hold the car. Then I accidentally hit a portion of the track and it starts collapsing. I try to scramble and halt the chain reaction but for a second it gets away from me. I'm eventually able to to reach ahead of the wave of falling and stop it, but the boy is very upset. I'm looking at a portion to see how to rebuild it, it was a raised section made from tiny toy birthday cakes with little teeny splinter sized colored "candles" on top. The little splinters have spilled all over. It's going to take a very demanding effort with tweezes to put this back together. + pack of toy cars given to "grandparents" the grandmother takes only a few: high detail cars, silver VW bug, "Formula 1" racer, I think my son shouldn't give them all away so he can give them to his own son in the future.
I entered a building looking for a toilet. Almost went into the ladies toilet, looked next door but that was also a ladies. Started walking down a corridor, said hello to a black cat, walked down a corridor and there were lots of children's paintings on the walls and I relaised it was a primary school and thought that my children's school was much nicer. I got to a door with a guard on it, he said I looked like I needed to go past an opened it up for me, I saw a children's gynmastics class to my right as a passed and realised that was why there was a guard on the door. A man with a child in a pushchair walked past me and I remembered my children when they were that young. I went through another door. There was a rehearsal going on in the end of the room. I walked quietly to the other end and met someone from university and we talked, she was complaining about someone who was being dificult in the rehearsal and told me the play was called 'Bread', it was a musical. I tried to carry on walking but I had reached a dead end.
I recall that I was tidying my room. It was a dark and cold day, and I've tidied the room only slightly as it wasn't that messy. My sisters were hurrying somewhere so that's why I was tidying the room. I found a teddy lion and placed it on top of a shelf, where already two such lions were placed and put it behind them. Then I thought "Always behind, in the shadows."
Flirt I'm in a train or bus with two friends, one guy and one girl, both white. There are more people there, but none that we are acquainted with. The guy and girl are having a seemingly friendly conversation, but I know that he is interested in her. I think they are talking in Dutch. Either the guy or I has a laptop on his lap. I think it's the guy at first. The girl exits at what is to me an unexpected place (Almere). I figured she would be going to Groningen. That just cut the conversation short by an hour. The guy goes after her, towards the exit, to ask for her number. In the mean time I find a different place to sit. Suddenly the bus/train is full of wannabe actors. One girl to my left seems to be memorising a script. Another girl all the way to the left is reading it out loud. That's quite obnoxious. I'm trying to concentrate on my thesis, so it's quite annoying. I'm outside on a big street with the guy. I ask him how it went. He tells me it went horrible. He got her email so that he can ask for her number. I tell him I've been there and it's shit. At that moment a blonde girl enters the street from a building. It's the girl I was referring to when I said that. Right? Some guy meanwhile mentions that he got a number that connected to an online disposable service, where he could talk to the girl. The first guy gets out his laptop and before long he's chatting with the girl through email. Newbie I'm talking to a girl I've just met. We're in my city in Indonesia, close to the university. I'm explaining some basic things to her about how to get things done around here. There's a guy with us and at some moments, one of the staff members from the international desk is there as well. Adult Twix Spoiler for No really, adult stuff: I had a strange dream about a Twix commercial. It was definitely not a child friendly ad. It was already late at night, so I figured that was why, but I was still surprised. There was a woman who wasn't wearing pants. She was upside down, a bit similar to doing a handstand. She somehow was balancing a single twix on her privates. I didn't get a look at that and was later also wondering how she managed to do that. I figured she had probably inserted it. The voice over also talked in an adult manner. He was making this sound like a game. There's the twix and a group of guys and everyone takes turns to take a bit off the twix. If you're the one who has reached the end... well then you have to finish the job. I blame this on the guy at the bar yesterday who went around asking everyone how to say 'nice pussy' in their own language Invasion I'm in my room in Indonesia. I have a swiffer type of broom and am cleaning my room. Holy shit, there's a whole line of ants just invading my room. Also, there's a dead wasp or something similarly big on the ground. But.. I didn't kill that thing. I didn't even see it inside. What happened here? I start sweeping the place up.
