Yeah, on that second jump I had already decided it wasn't a dream lol. To bad I didn't remember to do a reality check.

That should do it. If it has a star in the name then it's a favorite and you'd probably like to see those better. I really like the sketch of the woman (without color). Gimme some feedback. Oh, and I should have my dream influenced painting up near the end of next week.

Ok. I'll check that out as soon as I get the chance.

sorry but what is burms?

I love that you always take to the air on the things you are riding its cool as owt man

You have plenty of skill Mark!

A burm is a slanted corner mostly used on dirt race tracks. And most effective with moto cross bikes. If you use the burm with skill, you can lean into it and make the corner without hardly slowing down. When done right, the burm will do most of the work for you. And keep your tires from sliding out from under you.

Did I describe that so it makes sense?

Get a bit of deja vu on this, because of the bogroll
Burm is not in my dictionary and google returns a lot of snake pictures



Flying rules! It's funny how this jumping/flying makes you lucid. I always need to be lucid before I can take off.

Oh, I bought myself a pair of OFF ROAD skates today! I was inspired by all people saying they would love to have all terrain skates, so I found a dealer of Skorpion skates not too far away (well, I guess in your opinion everything is close in Holland )

This is what they look like:

They are not very streamlined, but very stable and I think they would be perfect to try skate-joering with my horse

Lol @ snake pictures.

You got those skates cool! let me know how it works out. I'm going to look into getting some of those other kind. But I have a long time until spring so there is no rush.

Getting Lucid, from getting airborne. is something that has evolved over time for me. Once I learned to Lucid Dream, naturally I started doing a lot of flying.
So much so, that I got very used to the way flying feels in my dreams.

And when I'm working hard to induce Lucid Dreams. My subconscious will be very helpful sometimes, and put me in the most likely situations to become Lucid. Then it's up to me to take the extra step and actually realize I'm dreaming. I almost never get those dreams where I get airborne like that, unless I'm actively trying to induce Lucids.

No Lucids but some good close calls.
Actually, I think I did get Lucid in my nap. But lost the recall on it.
I dreamed of Lucid dreaming all through my nap. But the details faded away every time I woke up.

Rope swing
There is a steep cliff, all covered with brush and vines. I jump off and start to fall. I grab hold of a vine, and use it to slow my momentum. then, I reach for another vine then another. I swing down the side of the cliff like Tarzan. I notice that the vines all have long sharp thorns on them. I didn't really have any choice but to grab them, thorns or not. But, to my surprise it doesn't hurt at all.

I eventually land on the shore of a lake. there is a rope hanging from somewhere. I don't remember what it was hanging from. I run, jump, and grab the rope. I swing way out over the lake. I get really high in the air. so much so that my stomach does flip flops. And I get a little scared. But I'm thinking about letting go of the rope and falling into the lake anyway. But, the shore seems a bit to close, and I'm afraid I will hit the ground if I let go. I don't remember much else of it. I think I woke up. I probably should have gotten Lucid during this one.

There was a couple of other close calls as well. But that was the best one.

Ah, that does sound like a close call..it seems sometimes that when people get really high up in a dream or begin to fly, sometimes they'll get lucid. That swinging out over a lake and off a cliff like tarzan was surely a close call... Sounded a bit scary, but like a fun thought to let go and fall into the water.

Naps seem to give alot of advantages over regular sleep..you said there were many close calls and i've noticed that too...

I'm sure next time will be a lucid dream.

Yeah, I have a hard time remembering dreams from my naps. But lately I've been remembering one or two. But taking a nap will make my recall at night much better. At night, it seems like all REM after having a nap in the day.
Plus my mind is more alert.

Oh, That Lucid I had with Moonbeam took place during a nap.
And also the one where I was making out in the mall.

As long as were talking about wanting skates and dreams... I want this:

Oh my god! I can't believe I just saw that! Now that's the coolest skating ever. I would love to try that. Especially if I had some long sloping hallways like that to play in.

Not to much to write about. didn't sleep much last night.

Walking down a woodsy trail in fading afternoon light. There has been some flooding, and the trail is surrounded by water. I have to step into some deep mud to get around some fallen trees. It's darker now, and I try to use my flashlight to see. The battery is low and the light is really dim.(just like in real life.) So it's getting hard to see. While stepping through the mud I see some big animal tracks. And I wonder what they are from.

Now, back on the trail I walk a little ways. There is a man with a big dog a ways down the trail. I can barely make them out in the darkness. The mans dog is not on a leash. I hear some growling and snarling. I notice the dog is running down the trail towards me. The dog jumps at me, and I hold up my arm in defense. The dog bites onto my arm, but it doesn't hurt at all. I grab him by the back of the neck, give him a little smack on the nose, and sternly say, "No bite!"lol. The dog listens, wags his tail then sits down. I give him A little pat on the head, then the owner catches up all apologizing.

I continue walking when the trail smoothly becomes an office building. I'm there to apply for a job. There is a lady at a desk that hands me a thick stack of papers to fill out. She tells me it's about a nine hour task to answer all the required questions. I decide I don't want to work there that bad, and I walk away. Thats all I remember.


I was reading a comment left by Moonbeam, about something I posted.

Partial Lucidity in my nap. but I can't remember much more than some confusing images. And I was dreaming about Lucid Dreaming throughout my whole nap.
But the details kept fading away every time I woke up. Not sure how much was actually Lucid. And how much was just dreaming about it.

That first bit sounds very eerie..flashlight dying..sinking into mud..

And those dogs sounded Very vicious..ah, but then it sat down and the owner came. If only it worked that way IRL and they didn't eat your face first. XD

As for that job...good call, don't take that from anyone!

ha ha another animal attack! love it mate, they must really hate you lol.

He sure has gotten good at putting them in their place! I almost wish I had so much opportunity to overcome attacks; it would help strengthen me against the really bad DC's. Reading how caradon does it helps a lot; I know that's why the skeletons stayed where they were in my last dream.

Yeah, ny brother told me about how he had to take this half a day test when applying for his job.
So I guess I got that from him.

I hate when I lose dreams like that. Got a little distracted for a couple of days. And my recall was starting to slip a little. Well, haven't slept much either!

That looked like a lot of fun! And what a beautiful road. I would be afraid to do that if I didn't have brakes. I used to fly down mountain roads on my bike in Colorado. You can really get going fast.

I hope not! I love animals lol.

I actually had a couple of other animal attack dreams last week. I didn't get around to posting them because of all the Lucids I needed to write.

One really scary bear attack during backpacking trip across Alaska. The bear actually attacked somebody else in the dream. There was some lady that was acting like a Timothy Treadwell, And playing with a wild grizzly.

I tried to tell her that even though the bear seemed friendly, it could attack her without warning at any time. she wouldn't listen. Next thing I knew, half her arm was missing. There was blood and gore everywhere. It waa so graphic that I almost vomited in my dream.

A spotted leopard tried to attack my Mom. I picked it up by the back of it's neck, and held it out at arms length. It was trying to claw and bite me, but it couldn't reach. I just held it that way until I woke up lol. Because I was afraid to let it go.

The void
I think this was influenced by The Mist.

The first thing I remember is being dead, and disembodied. I was drifting fast into the afterlife. I come to some kind of gate, that is guarded by a Gargoyle looking creature.
I am aware that I had sold my soul to some evil being, and I'm being drawn to where ever it is that this being keeps it's captured souls.

The gargoyle creature pulls open the gate, And it's nothing but pure darkness inside. I was a little afraid to enter. But then, I must have become partially Lucid, because I am aware that this is not real. I lose all fear and decide to just go with it, and see what happens.

I enter the darkness beyond the gate, And I begin falling fast through a dark void.
I eventually hit the bottom, and I now find myself on the roof of a house, Along with a group of other captured souls. There is light around our house, but beyond the light is nothing but darkness.

I hear screaming. I look over the side of the house, and there is a man on the ground.
There is some kind of creature that looks kind of like a giant frog. The frog creature has it's long tongue wrapped around the man. And is slowly dragging him towards it's open mouth.

I now have a long blade in my hand. It's kind of like a machete. I jump from the roof and land between the creatures open mouth and the man. I begin hacking at the tongue, until I finally cut through it. I move to help the man up. there is some kind of large bug on him. I pull it off him, and a mass of tiny bugs come swarming out of the larger one, and begin to cover me.

Frantically, I begin swatting at them and trying to brush them away. I get them mostly cleared off, and the other man and I climb back to the top of the roof. There is a group of other people up there. And everyone is afraid and talking about the situation.
people are starting to argue about what to do. We can hear the sound of unknown creatures beyond the light, waiting for their chance to attack us.

I don't remember why, but the group suddenly looks to one woman. They say that she is not a real person and she doesn't even know it. I guess she is supposed to be some kind of android, with artificial intelligence. She says "I know I'm not a real person!"
The mob doesn't care. who knows why, but they all start to attack her. They want to tear her apart. I move to her defense, And I'm trying to fight off the mob for a little bit before waking up.

A moment of Lucidity
I also remember being in a room Lucid. I was showing off using telekinesis to move some buckets through the air. Thats all I remember about it.

Sounds like what I remember from reading the story. That was a long time ago! I still remember it well.

That was kind of a bad dream for you, I think.

I'm still looking forward to seeing "the myst" I have not yet. ....so I'm sure I've missed something crucial here, sorry.

Oh man, that dream was really not pleasent at all. It sounded like it could have been some type of short horror story at first. It's good (well, not good,)you had partial lucidity when you entered those forboding gates though...allowed it to continue and see how it would play out. I'd call that a nightmare...

May your dreams get more cheery soon.

Insane dream man, sounds kind of scary....have you read the his dark materials trilogy? it sounds like the land of the dead

Shame you cant remember more of that lucid, sounds like it would have been great

I hope you got something good for it! I really liked all the gargoyles, giant frogs and insect monsters. You're such nice guy sticking up for the android woman!

Creepy. I've never had a dream like that.

A Lucid Dream
Monday/December/10/2007
Lucid Dream # 57 of 2007
Reality check induced Lucidity
Basic Lucid task Accomplished

I was having an adventure dream about trying to rescue some people that were being held captive in some building. Eventually there is a point where I'm climbing the side of the building trying to get people out of an upper level window. I get one person out, then decide I should get him out of here before trying for others. There is a large grassy parking lot (Just an open field really) and I have a van parked somewhere. I bring the person to my van then start going back for others.

On the way back to the building, I randomly start thinking about whether or not I'm dreaming. I think, Hmm, this is an unfamiliar place. And this is kind of an abnormal thing I'm doing. I decide to do a reality check. I pinch my nose and I can breath!
Fully Lucid now, I look around in amazement at how real everything is. It's a little windy, and I just stand there for a moment enjoying the way the wind feels, and trying to decide what I want to do next.

Then I remember the Lucid Task. There are plenty of people in the parking area. they are all dressed strange. They are wearing old fashioned Amish style clothing. But they are all raggedy looking like they are homeless people are something. I walk up to the closest person to me. (Which is a woman) I ask her if she can tell my my dream name.
She says, "your dream name is Ruth" "Ruth!" I reply. " Can't you give me a better dream name that Ruth?" "No" she says, then she walks away.

Annoyed now, I'm determined to find a better dream name. I see another Woman.
"Excuse me, Can I ask you a question?" She walks over to me. feeling a little mischievous now, I ask her if I can do something sexual with her. She simply says "no" then starts to walk away. (I was hoping for a little more interesting reaction.)
I grab her arm and turn her back to me. I say, "I have a better question though, really.
"What is my dream name?" She says," I don't know." then walks away.

I walk around asking everyone. they either say they don't know, or they have no idea what I'm talking about. I see a little boy on a red tricycle. I squat down next to him. when he looks over at me, he is so startled that he falls over backwards, tricycle and all.
I laugh and move on.

I think about my next task I had in mind. I want to go hunting for these aware DC's I've been hearing of. And see what their all about. I look around at everyone. No one seems different, or hostile, or remarkable in any way. Other than the fact that they all seem very real. Nobody has tried to touch me. But I have touched quite a few of them trying to get their attention.

I see another lady. I ask her if she knows what my dream name is. She says " your dream name is, She says my real name!" "That's not my dream name! that's my real name.!" "How do you know my real name anyway?" She just walks away. Now I'm feeling like I'm just wasting my Lucid. Though it is entertaining pestering these DC's

I ask a couple more times with no results before I wake up. So I guess my dream name is Ruth.

There was no fear in this dream guys. Strange as that may sound! There was a feeling of intensity though.

No haven't read that Mark. But I have read a lot of fantasy stuff with creatures from hades and the abyss or what not.

Thanks Cusp! You know I don't even know what I got for my soul! because I don't remember anything before that point. I just knew that was what was going on somehow. I hope it was something good too!

Thanks Mark!

It's OK about the rejection! she was quite ugly lol. I just wanted to see what her reaction would be. I was disappointed. I was hoping for a little more animated response

Maybe you should have asked for the name first, then the sex.

Isn't it weird when you get turned down by a DC? You feel like telling them--you can't say no! You're not even real!

They are very strange things.
