    1. Trancen-dance (bit trippy Oo)

      by , 03-29-2016 at 12:59 PM
      [comment] sleep pattern messed up, since I programmed myself to awake after each dream, now I awake approx 3am which would be ideal time for mild or something but instead I am finding it nye on impossible to get back to sleep LOL

      Awoke about 7am after fitful sleep, any recall i had evaporated and I decided to just see what I could see while in hypnogoic sleep state.
      Friend of mine labelled this my trance state as I do this fairly wide awake also but i'd never tried it on waking before Oo
      Each scene in trance exited into the next without any morphing, much like
      cards being turned to reveal a new scene.

      1) scene that came into my mind was of a large tree on a skyline, tree totally black due to lighting,
      picture was in smokey watercolours, dark storm clouds in a purple and yellowy sky.
      I can't remember which way round it happened but the tree which had appeared densly foliaged
      had all its deep blackness turn into a vast swarm of black birds which swept into the sky
      becoming like a million tiny black particles forming themselves into a cloud.

      2) Again in watercolours, a shamen lay taking up most of the bottom portion of the scene.
      He was old and wearing full feathered headress layed out on the ground.
      In the sky was a yellowed figure, half cloud half face of a indian spirit.
      I could not tell if the shamen was sleeping or dying or being brought back to life?

      3) A close up of a group of elven face lit by a bright white light, also hues of green and yellow.
      They were smiling with bright eyes.

      4) A photo realistic scene of being on a small island, with gravel paths and tended lush foliage.
      A very sunny day with the sea sparkling, flashes of light from reflected light on the waves.
      As I grow closer, I could smell the sea and see that a part of a gigantic lizard the scales a dull grey,
      was raised above the water. The island itself was an amphibian of some kind.

      5) Another photo realistic scene, outside a house, my eye was drawn to something near the roof
      I zoomed in on part of a scene, within a triangle, was a viscous liquid
      golden dark brown, inside it was moving, it was alive, inside was a man.
      i could tell but not see.

      6) I see myself sitting in bed awake. The bed has a metal back.
      Next to me I cannot see who is there but I am stunned by the mirroring
      of my circumstances, after the other seemingly abstract scenes and its realism.

      7) Against a darkened blue, night sky. A large circle is being held by the
      hand of some unseen person. Within the circle they're are to forms, one is me
      another on the other side a woman, we are both held in an energy field. The currents
      of which can be seen zigzagging like lighting strkes, binding us together.

      8) The symbolic outline of a man is on one side of the scene, his is in the figure
      of a anch sign, his legs angular and stylised. His shadow is thrown forward to
      the other side of the scene. Large reddy, orange dried leaves are grouped
      pointing away from him. In the distance a swarm of black birds flys towards him
      out of the orange tinged sky. They turn to black dots and stream into him
      I am hit by a surge of energy, like a sledghammer. My heart starts to race.
      Leaves turn into phoenix feathers, with flames on edges.

      Hi!-ankhman_small.jpg
      my dream journal sketch of ankh man.

      I awake and sketch what I can remember.There were some dreams as well inbetween
      but I can't recall them, now.
      I go to make coffee for my daughter (humble servant that I am)
      As I look into the coffee jar, the granules are alive like a thousand
      moving people.
      I add the sugar and they appear to move before my eyes like the swarm of birds.
      I look down at the work top and its texture moves like clouds on a large stormy
      sky.
      A pattern to my right again looks like many people moving and another birds.
      I sit down on the carpet and the room rocks, the floor looks and is moving
      like the sea, a thousand waves set in motion.

      Thankfully things calm down after that. I have the reverlation that everything
      is alive and in motion, time is the thing that stops us from seeing this.
      I laugh as the clocks hand moving, makes me jump thinking it is another vision (?)

      I open the french windows, and a large plant pot of earth is hit as the door
      is caught by the wind, it scatters earth like a million black birds across the
      ground Oo

    2. Hibiscus at Burning Man

      by
      Hyu
      , 02-16-2012 at 02:34 AM (Hyu's Adventures)


      This video was posted the night before this dream on reddit.
      It got me really curious about Burning Man and I read up on it before going to bed.


      I'm driving home.
      I decide to take the country road, which I love.
      It's nearly always empty and is full of corners with very good visibility.
      In other words it's quite safe to drive really fast, and you barely ever go over the speed limit doing so.

      A village is coming up so I attempt to slow down, but something is wrong.
      The brakes are fading... badly!
      I'm going downhill struggling to stop, the brakes aren't biting.
      I enter the village quite a bit too fast but manage to come to a full stop after quite some distance.

      What happened? I haven't had any brake fading since I changed to aftermarket brakes, and I wasn't even pushing them that hard.
      Plus brakes don't just loose all their bite that quickly, they would have gradually started fading.
      I get out of the car to check on the brakes and the pads are quite literally on fire.

      No way... I try to recall if I was racing, but even if I was this couldn't possibly happen.
      I get back in the car still trying to remember my driving, and start driving slowly to cool the brakes down.
      I can't seem to recall my driving at all.


      And then it hits me. I'm dreaming!
      I immediately remember Burning Man and decide to go there.
      I close my eyes, and imagine myself walking on the Playa.
      Why did I close my eyes? I can teleport with my wings, this seems unsafe.

      I open my eyes and find myself already at Burning Man.

      "Huh... that was easy..."

      I notice a woman in front of me, staring at me quite intensely.

      "No, it wasn't. I brought you here."

      Interesting.
      I scan her aura to see if it is Faye messing with me, but I quickly realize it is not her.
      It's the "hibiscus girl": Another mysterious woman / Emotional and sensory overload - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views
      The last two times she was wearing clothes with a hibiscus drawn on them, but this time she's wearing the actual flower behind one of her ears.

      "Well... hello there."
      "Come!"

      She grabs my hand and drags me away.
      She blinks the both of us a considerable distance ahead, and we end up in a location where people have set up all sorts of art pieces.

      "Beautiful, isn't it?"

      I investigate all the pieces carefully.
      They are very different from each other, but every one is beautiful in its own individual way.
      There's everything from over-sized mechanical spiders shooting flames to tiny crystal sculptures.

      She grabs my hand again, and gives me this look that clearly states that she is in control.
      This is the second time she just dragged me into another dream.
      I don't really mind, because I find her very interesting, and her presence is... quite arousing.
      She's extremely attractive and quite sensual.
      I'm drawn towards her.
      But I sill feel the need to be at least partially in control of what is going on.

      "We're going to climb that sculpture"

      She points at a tubular structure.
      I resist the dragging and she looks at me.
      I stare deeply into her eyes and grab strongly onto her arm.

      "No, we're not. We're going dancing."

      I smile, and pull her to a new location through my eyes, the way she has done it to me before.
      I get us into some sort of club they have constructed here.
      There's a center pillar giving support to a huge tent.
      We stand on a small platform attached to it, a few meters above the ground.
      There's neon-lights everywhere, in all kinds of colors, lighting the place up.
      Some follow the rhythm of the music.
      They are playing vocal trance. (A bit like this starting at 2:30)



      The girl is visibly surprised that I just dragged her here.

      "Dance with me!"

      She's unsure for a second but then smiles.

      "Sure"

      She leans her back against me and we dance slowly to the very atmospheric music.
      I really enjoy it. She smells very nice... it reminds me of lavender.
      She brushes through my hair with her fingers... I wish I had such good hair in waking life.
      The flashing of the lights turns my vision slightly blurry.
      She turns around and closes here eyes.
      She moves in for a kiss, and it's absolutely magnificent.
      I feel full of energy.

      I can feel how much she is enjoying this.
      But then something startles her.
      She looks at her hands and starts fading away.
      She manages to look at me one last time before she completely disappears.

      I decide that she must have woken up, how unfortunate.
      My vision is blurry as well, I need to get out of here and stabilize.

      I teleport outside where it is dusk now.
      I rub my hands vigorously to stabilize the dream.

      I walk along a path with more sculptures on both sides.
      I meet many people, all very different from each other.
      They're all extremely nice, everyone is smiling and says hi.
      I wonder if Burning Man is anything like this in waking life.

      Some guy explains to me how to build these tubular structures and I end up helping him extend one of his sculptures.

    3. August 19th, 2011

      by , 08-19-2011 at 11:35 AM (Visions in the Dark)
      (There is a "trigger warning" on the content of this dream.)

      This dream takes place in a sort of Medieval fantasy world, much like Lord of the Rings. I am my dream incarnation Kalima, who has orange hair and wears a white and violet dress. I am in the center of a large valley of some kind. I am on a flat plain surrounded completely by large snowy mountains. It is cold and dry and it is either late autumn or I am far north, though there is no snow on the ground.


      I know I am trying to find my way to a certain land, but I do not know how to get there. I am in the process of escaping another land where people are trying to kill me because I have been accused of witchcraft. A while ago I was being pursued by a group of men dressed in furs who were riding black horses, but somehow I avoided them and ended up in this valley. I am nervous because there are no trees or large boulders to hide behind and if the horsemen make there way into this valley, they will surely see me.

      I head for the smallest range of mountains and try to traverse over it, but I lack supplies and I am starving, I am too tired and it is too cold. I collapse and some travellers find me and take me to their cabin on the other side of the mountain. I sleep for a long time and when I awake I am in a trance like state and I start drawing maps because for some reason I am unable to speak and cannot tell my rescuers where I am trying to go.

      Some of the older men in the family recognizes the land I have drawn in my map and they gathers supplies to try and take me there. We travel for a long time and are almost at my destination when the horsemen find us and attack us. All of the men I am travelling with, except one, are killed and we are taken prisoner. We are taken to a camp set up by the horsemen and I am interrogated and tortured because the horsemen want to know where I was headed, though for some reason I am still unable to talk. Late in the night thw lone survivor of the men I had been travelling with is tortured and killed. After his death some of the horsemen gang rape me repeatedly.

      Dawn comes and I am traumatized and exhausted and am looking forward to the horsemen killing me for witchcraft because I do not want to live anymore. Before they can assault me further the horsemen's camp is attacked by elven warriors and the horsemen flee or are killed. I am overhwelmed by everything that has happened and pass out.

      When I wake up I am in a large palace somewhere and there are beautiful elven people walking around and whispering softly in the grand halls. My wounds are dressed and there is fresh fruit and bread on a table near by soft bed. I am still traumatized from the torture and rape, and still unable to talk, yet somehow I know that I have arrived at my destination and I fall back into a such deep sleep that I do not know if I am just asleep or if I have died.

    4. The 4th dimension, Slight disorientation, Trance

      by
      Hyu
      , 04-30-2011 at 02:57 AM (Hyu's Adventures)
      I took a one week break from working on projects, and it did a lot of good to my dream recall.
      Unfortunately I'm back to working now, which means no more WBTB/WILDs.
      My dream recall has already suffered notably from this.
      It's quite unfortunate, I felt like I was finally getting the hang of WILDing.


      The 4th Dimension

      I'm at uni, walking through the corridors towards my classroom.
      For some reason I end up in what seems to be some sort of physics laboratory.
      I question whether this is where I belong.
      I remember that I am actually majoring in CS and not physics, and that this is definitely not a room I've been in before.
      But as the teacher enters the room I decide to ignore this for some reason, and just go with it.

      I don't know what the course is about, but I recognize elements from quantum physics.
      Then the teacher talks about the fourth dimension (spacial dimension, not time).
      I know a few things about that, so I'm not too surprised when she shows us a hologram of a tesseract.
      But then she says she will materialize it. How on earth is she gonna do that?

      The teacher approaches me and hands me.... well... a tesseract... with transparent walls.
      I assume that it is some sort of model with joints that allows it to be moved similar to a rotation in the 4th dimension.
      But then I remember that this cannot work, it is physically impossible.
      As I touch the object, I realize that it is indeed solid. There are no joints, and all surfaces on it are perfectly solid.
      But I can rotate it the same way I would be able to rotate a 4 dimensional object... at least in theory:



      This fucks with my mind quite a bit.

      But then I understand that I am indeed dreaming, and don't understand why I didn't notice this any sooner.
      For some reason I still feel the need to figure out how this works though.
      How can I even interact with this? The dimensions do not match.
      But then I realize that I am somehow trapped in 4 dimensional space.
      Every object in the class room is 4 dimensional.
      My chair can no longer hold my body and I somehow fall through it.
      As I look up and see everything appear normal yet consisting of impossible shapes, my head starts to hurt and I wake up.




      Slight disorientation

      I'm home, hanging upside down from the lusters.
      A friend of mine enters the house.

      "What the fuck are you doing up there?"

      I look down... why the fuck am I hanging from the lusters?
      Or maybe I am not really hanging from the ceiling?

      "You mean down here. Why are you standing upside down over there?"
      "What? I am standing on the floor!"
      "Yes, and I'm hanging from the ceiling. What's your point?"
      "Dude..."
      "The ceiling is down, and the floor is up!"
      "No, it isn't."
      "Yes it is!"
      "Why?"
      "Because I say so."

      Gravity inverts and he falls down onto the ceiling.

      "What the fuck?"
      "Told you so."
      "I guess you were right."



      Trance

      I am sitting with a girl my age in front of a campfire.
      We have setup a tent over here, and it seems we are in the middle of the desert.
      But I can't tell for sure, it's pretty dark already.

      I realize the girl isn't human.
      Her hair is mixed with leaves... they are growing out of her head, just like normal hair.
      When I look into her eyes I can also clearly feel that she is not human.
      However she does look human, except for her hair.
      But I don't mind, I feel like this is the way it is supposed to be.
      I remember we both came here in order to get into some sort of trance with the goal to be enlightened.

      Wait a second... what the....?

      Oh! I'm dreaming!
      She looks at me, as if she just realized something.
      But she doesn't say anything, and hands me what appears to be a native american peace pipe.
      She smiles:

      "You need to smoke it."

      For some reason I feel like something special will happen if I smoke it.
      After all the goal was to get into trance right?
      I take a deep breath of smoke, and I instantly feel it in my head.
      I get extremely lightheaded, and have trouble not falling over, even though I'm sitting.

      "Good!"

      She smokes the pipe herself.
      Holy shit, what is going on, I feel like I'm falling through the chair, into the sand below it.
      I loose control over my body, and start to hallucinate quite vividly.
      At first it's similar to HI during SP, but then it gets much stronger.
      I see bright and vivid colors everywhere, intermixing with the landscape.
      I see plants growing out of the sand at an insanely fast rate.
      They start to blossom and fill the air with glowing pollen.
      The girl starts growing feathers over her body and flies away.
    5. A WILD Lucid at School.

      by , 10-01-2010 at 04:34 PM (Dreams I can Only Dream.)
      Date.10-1-10
      Time: 9am-945am (Sometime Between These)

      Note: Okay so it has been a really long time since I had a lucid, but this was short and sweet. It was scary though cause I ended up in SP, and my legs hurt bad cause of the position I was in. My dream recall has been off, and I just seem to have enough time to dedicate to LDing. This was a would be considered a WILD, but I really think it was an OBE.
      .

      Description: So I put my head down at this table we were sitting in for class, and people were presenting their power point presentations, I am going on very little sleep since school started. I fell asleep, but could still hear people talking, and at points I could actually see the screen we were looking at with my eyes closed, then went blind for a few seconds till I thought of the idea of windows.


      Lucid Dream: So I put my head down, and close my eyes. Could still hear voices in the background, but I fell into a trance. Then the vibrations started happening, my legs felt really weird, my heart started to beat fast, and my head felt like energy was just rushing around there. I end up seeing the screen we were looking at, but I knew my eyes were closed. I instantly knew I was dreaming, since I had the dream body feeling. My body was completely heavy and hard to lift. I actually felt like I was being pushed downward. I grabbed onto my desk that I was sitting at and lifted my head trying to do a pull up. I sink through the chair into the void. I start imagining that my eyes are opening, so I end up in my bedroom at home. I still hear the voices in the background. I roll of the bed , and onto the floor as I try to walk. I go blind again. This time I pry my eyes open, and see my classmates sitting across from me, but I still feel incredibly heavy, so I stand up on the desk and it becomes a portal to the void. Once again I find another window to go back into the class, I pull the portal (Was edge of desk, but it was like a mirror, only without reflection) around my head, and end up back into my class. So I stand up and try to walk, but I was to heavy. I end up just wanting out, so I force myself out of the dream and open my real eyes. But my legs feel like they are still incredibly heavy, but the feeling wears off as I awaken.

    6. Super Mario Galaxy (again)

      by , 08-04-2010 at 10:14 PM (Hidden's Dream Journal)
      Wow, I haven't posted in a long time.

      There were a bunch of little planets clustered together (like in Super Mario Galaxy). I jumped between them and eventually came to a larger planet with lava an platforms. I had to be careful not to move from the position I was in (the same position I'd fallen asleep in) so that I wouldn't break out of my trance.

      This is like my 4th dream about SMG in the past two nights. >.>
