Holding that thought, is what really gets me Lucid. Tons of reality checks, helps me to remember to do them, when the need comes up. And enhances the chances of me becoming Lucid. And, every now and then I will get a Lucid from a completely random RC.

I think.

Oh, I would have a hard time with public speaking. I don't feel comfortable around groups of people unless they are people I'm real familiar with.

Thanks for mentioning that. I don't mind comments though.
But, I will be posting any new Lucids in here first. then moving them to that thread. I wanted a thread to keep them together so that I can go back and look through them easier. there is nothing like reliving an Old Lucid Dream to help motivate you to have more. Plus, if anyone else is looking to read Lucid Dreams for inspiration. It's easier for them as well.

Phew, Just finished moving every Lucid from here, to my Lucid Dreams thread. That was a lot of work.

I still have some in my paper journals I have yet to post. And some I can still remember even though I never wrote them down.

But there are many I can't remember well enough to write. And a lot I've forgotten all together. I'm sure.

I was afraid you were gonna stop posting lucids in here. I wuz liek...OMG WTF
You----> ------------------------------------------------ <----Me



BTW super cool clown dream. I always love the action packed ones.

No I wouldn't stop posting them in here.

Thanks, That clown dream was so much more than what I described. I sure wish I could have written the whole thing in detail. It would have been a good one for the Gallery.

Cool new avatar! That guy looks familiar for some reason.

Thankyou. It's from an animated movie I saw on my computer yesterday called Jin-Roh.

"The film is set in an alternate history 1960's postwar Tokyo. A strong armed organization which goes by the name of 'Syutokei (metropolitan police)' has been established to confront violent anti-government movements. The main character is one of the member of the Syutokei."

It doesn't have a ton of action, but it's got a great story and some really good drama. I watched the English version on my "VeohTV" thing on my sister's laptop. The armor the character has, has a resemblance to the "Helghast" from the game "Killzone" (what a heartwarming title). Other than that I don't know, and you don't play video games anyways.

It was a really good movie though. I hope I dream about it.
BTW, I updated my lucids thread with a recent nld, some entries from my DJ which includes one lucid and after that I wrote my first lucid ever! It's a page stretcher though, so prepare for eyestrain.

EDIT
Oh I almost forgot, Caradon! My sister just came back from Minnesota two days ago. She went to visit the family we have back there. I only lived there until I was four years old though (I want snow!). Well, my Winter break just ended about four and a half hours ago and I have to get ready for school in two hours... yeah it's 4:30... c ya latr!

You changed your avater since I made that comment.

All are snow is melting here. I was out walking today, and I thought maybe I lost track of time. It's so warm out it feels like it must be April not January.

Another bear attack dream
I don't remember a lot of it. But I'm inside a house or an apartment. There is a black bear. I think it was supposed to be somebody's pet that had gone wild. I'm standing on top of some tall piece of furniture in a bedroom, like a dresser. It's kind of strange though, because it's so tall that the bear can't really reach me well. the bear is jumping up into the air trying to get onto my dresser. It's able to get it's face up near my feet. And I keep kicking the bear in the face and knocking it back down. I think about how I had better be careful not to let him get a hold of my foot and pull me down with him.

There is someone else there, and I see the bear go after him. He runs into the bathroom to try and close himself in, away from the bear. But, the bear gets into the bathroom with him. And I can hear all sorts of commotion like he is fighting with the bear. I see a girl with a phone. I ask her if she is calling the police. I hear sirens, I look out a nearby window and I can see yellow fire trucks racing down the road. I'm relieved they have come to help. But then they just race on by to some other emergency. I wake up about there.

Wow, considering it was a bear, you did pretty good. I would think they'd be pretty hard to knock down. Funny how the emergency vehicles passed you by.

So, if there is a bear in your house, are the police the right people to call? That would be good to know!

Caradon! I can't believe you didn't do an RC!

(Yes I can; I probably wouldn't have done one either. But I am taking your advice and massively increasing my RC's. Trying too anyway.)

what was it before I changed it? I kept switching it around in quick succession. By the way Cusp, I love your sig. Will Farrel rules.

wooohooo bring on the bear attacks!!

nice one caradon thats great, I like the way you kick the pay to stop it getting to your feet.

I have noticed that in your last few dreams it has been your DCs who take the brunt of the animal attacks, its funny because you have reversed the situation on the DCs so that rather then them hurting you your hurting them ha ha love it

Once you start fighting them. Dream animals are not all that tough.

Well, I would hope so. Can you imagine calling 911. And they say, "sorry we don't do bear attacks, your on your own."

Yeah, I know. Just when I thought animal attacks were going to start being a good dreamsign for me. I stopped having those dreams for a while. Maybe if they keep up I will remember it's a dream thing again, and get Lucid.

I'm even more annoyed that the last couple of nights I was thinking about that I could be dreaming two different times And didn't do a reality check.
But trying to wild in a nap today. I entered a scene, and started hearing my watch alarm beeping. Then did a reality check.

Good to hear your doing them more. The more you do when your awake. the better the chance that you will dream that you do it.

It was some strange looking thing, with a helmet and guns.

Yeah, I've noticed that too. I actually had a couple I never got around to posting. Because I had Lucid Dreams on the same nights. And didn't have time to post other dreams. In those the animals were attacking other people as well. One lady got her arm ripped off by a grizzly bear. It was so graphic, that I almost vomited in the dream.

An 07 Lucid Dream
Tuesday/February/20/2007
Lucid Dream # 13 of 2007
Best dreamsign noticed.

I was a part of some kind of military organization. We were flying in some type of military plane. And we were in the middle of a war. We were on some specific mission. there were rockets being fired at our airplane. I knew that we would be hit, and the plane would explode at any moment. I was preparing to jump out and parachute to the ground. I was decked out in all sorts of commando gear, like in the movies. The hatch on the plane was open. I jumped with no hesitation. I was more afraid of being caught in the exploding plane when it exploded, than jumping.

The moment I jumped out of the plane I became instantly Lucid. I flew around the plane. Then I flew back inside. Back inside the plane, the environment changed. But, I didn't even take notice of the change. I'm now in some house, and I still have my commando gear on. I remember walking down some halls shouting" this is a dream!"
I'm carrying this really cool futuristic looking science fiction style machine gun. I realize that I have no need to carry this gun around in my dream. (I have no need of guns when Lucid) I take a moment to admire the detail of the thing. It's so cool looking that I'm reluctant to leave it behind. But I don't want to carry it around for nothing either.( I didn't even think of trying to fire it, to see what would happen.) So I drop the thing and move on.

There seems to be a lot of girls in the house I'm in I decide to indulge in a little fun with them.(CENSORED) I didn't really have sex with any of them. But I did play around with them a little. I stopped myself though, for fear of waking up.

I suddenly realize I need to pee! (I never had to pee in a Lucid Dream before.) I decide that since this is my dream I can pee anywhere. So I start peeing right on the floor in the room I'm in. (It's kind of childishly fun.) After a moment, A man comes walking by an sees me. He is angry at me for peeing on the floor. I say "it's no big deal, this is just a dream!" "Yeah right!" the man replies. Then I start thinking, that maybe this is not a dream anymore. So I do a little test. I jump into the air and try to catch myself with my mind before falling to the floor. I easily make myself hover in the air. So I know for a fact I'm dreaming.

I fly along and follow the man that was angry with me. I follow him down a stairway and into another room. I say to him, " see look at me, I'm flying! I know it's a dream."
Their is also some lady in the room. I can tell that she believes me. There is also a child. I start to mess with one of the kids toys. The man runs over, and takes the toy from me. I then, reach out with my mind using telekinesis I make the child float through the room. the man comes running at me, with the intent to attack me.

I reach out with my mind again. Using telekineses, I stop the man in his tracks. Then I force him to walk backwards and out of the room. I can hear the woman laughing. She thinks it's funny that I made him do that. Once the man is around the corner and out of sight. I release him. he walks back into the room. He goes into the kitchen, and begins washing dishes. I say to him," This is my world, And I'm a god here. For some reason I'm bothered that the man is so upset with me. I tell him about how hard I have been working to get to this point. And soon I will be able to change environments with a thought.
( At the time of this dream, I had been getting Lucid a lot. Then things started going down hill for a while.) I talk to the man a few moments longer before waking up.

Telekenisis, cool!

Too bad you didn't shoot the gun just to see if it worked right. Good job on the near-sex.

sweet mate! Telekinesis is always fun to do!

I cant believe you censored your dream still its quite funny though lol. Ha ha I laughed at the part were you took a pee on the floor I can imagine that being very satisfying lol

LOL! so funny.

Same thing. Just a different picture.

Still nothing great to write about. Just a bunch of short dreams.

Partial Lucidity
I'm up on a high hill overlooking a beautiful landscape. I can remember being in this very spot, in the beginning of an intense dream I had at least a year ago. Before joining dream views. There is somebody with me. I tell them about how I described this scene in my dream journal before. I was also playing a Spanish guitar in this dream. And the strings ended up breaking on me.

Comments
it's cool that I remembered that I had been in this dream spot before. when it was so long ago that I had the dream.


Witch in the fire place
I think I'm supposed to be at the cabin. I'm making chicken, and I'm about to eat some but it's not quite done. There is a wood burning stove that I'm using to cook in.
I put the chicken in a pan and open the hatch on the stove. When I open the hatch, a witch climbs out, and into the room. I guess she had climbed down the chimney. which is pretty narrow. I'm surprised at all, this seems perfectly normal. She has the whole black outfit and hat. long pointy nose and chin.

When my chicken is finished I'm sitting at a table eating. I can't see that well, it's kind of dark. I ask the witch to flip the light switch because she is near it. she says "no!"
I say,"what a witch!" And I think myself clever for making that joke.

Miniature golf
I come across a golf course. I'm not sure if I was driving or what. But there is an old man, and a kid on the putting green. I decide I want to play so I join them. the old man really sucks at the game. the scene kind of shifts so that I'm in an indoor miniature golf course at some bar. This is an extra small miniature golf course. there is only like three different greens. But every time it's my turn I get a hole in one. I'm as surprised as everyone that is watching.

Avalanche
I'm near pikes peak it's covered in snow. I can see clouds flowing over the top of the mountain almost like a waterfall. As I watch, I realize it's not clouds but snow. all the snow on the face of the mountain slides off and falls to the ground. strangely the ground is right at timberline. There is a tourist area there and I realize that the snow just buried a lot of people. I run to help dig people out before they can suffocate. When I get there I notice it was not as bad as I had thought. And nobody is in trouble.

four wheeling
I'm riding a four wheeler. It's kind of fun. I'm just zipping around and hitting the brakes. then lean into a skid and spin the whole thing around. I do that a bunch of times. Then I start riding up and down this long staircase for a while. not much else to tell I was just riding around having fun until I woke up.

there was a couple of even more boring dreams that I don't feel like writing.
In my nap I was dreaming about Lucid Dreaming, and thinking about reality checks. but I'm not sure if I did one or not. I can't remember much about it.

Yeah, In the dream all I could think of, is that it was ridiculous to have a gun. when the only weapon I need is my own mind. I didn't even think about that it would be fun, just to play with the gun for the heck of it.

Yeah, I haven't used much telekineses lately. And I was annoyed that the last time I tried it it failed me. going to have to do some more playing around with that.

The censored part wasn't a big deal just didn't feel like describing it in detail.

That was funny peeing in a dream. I was like oh crap! What if this really isn't a dream.

Oh, I see the resemblance now.

well i'm really happy that i got one of my friends interested in lucid dreaming. i referred him to the site and you!

Way to go! The dream world is your toilet. Hilarious how you had second thoughts about it being a dream. I could just imagine if it wasn't!

Thats pretty cool! If he is really interested, tell him about the book "Exploring The World Of Lucid Dreaming" as well.

Yeah, that would really suck if it wasn't a dream.

I failed the reality check, it didn't fail me!
I was at some house with a bunch of people. There was some weird stuff going on I can't remember everything. I was talking to some girl. And I told her, that sometimes I can move things using my mind alone. I don't think she believed me though. I end up needing to use the bathroom. So I walk into the bathroom. I decide to practice trying to move things with my mind. There is a shelf on the wall with little animal figurines on it. I focus really hard on one of the figurines, and I make it fly off the shelf into my hand. I put it back on the shelf and do it again. I'm straining really hard to make it happen, and I can just barely do it. but it's working. I do it a few times more just to make sure I got it.

I open the bathroom door and shout for the girl to come into the bathroom. I tell her that I want to show her something. (Also wondering if she is going to get the wrong idea.) She comes into the bathroom, and I show her that I can move the figurine with my mind. "How can you do that?" She asks. I tell her I don't know. And that maybe it's because I do it so often in my dreams, that the ability has carried over into
my waking life as well.

At that point I decide to do a reality check. I pinch my nose and I can breath.lol.
Only problem is I don't believe it. I'm like WTF! this can't be a dream. So I do another reality check. I pinch my nose and I can still breath. I still don't believe it. So I pinch my nose again. This time I pinch my nose closed as hard as I can trying to make it so I can't breath. But, I still can! And I still don't believe it! I'm thinking that there must be something wrong with my nose. Then I think what if I really thought this was a dream, and I did something really dumb. I look around, and it just seems way to real to be a dream. Suddenly the girl asks, "Are you afraid?" I'm a little confused by the question. I think maybe she is asking me if I'm afraid to believe it's a dream, and find out it's really not.(Which I am I guess.) I say," No I don't really think this is a dream. I'm not going to do anything stupid."

She asks me what I'm going to do with my telekinetic power. I imitate Hiro from the beginning of the Heroes show I watched yesterday. And I jokingly say," I'm going to practice and develop my powers and become a super hero!"

Just before waking up, I tell her not tell Oneironaut That I can really move things with my mind. Because he will be jealous.

That was a hilarious dream! Talk about failing an RC! Oh, and don't tell O--wouldn't want him to be jealous of your super powers.

I say," No I don't really think this is a dream. I'm not going to do anything stupid."

That was a good one.

Two roller-blading dreams
I'm with some family members in a van it's night. I need to go to the grocery store.
So they pull into the parking lot and let me out. I have my roller-blades on. I skate up to the front door of the grocery store. It's dark inside, I guess it's closed. I now notice that the parking lot is empty. I decide I'm going to do some showing off, and start skating around the parking lot as fast as I can. I really get going fast I do huge circles around the whole parking lot. The pavement is very smooth. I'm going so fast that I can barely make the turns. Even though they are long wide and gradual. I even do some little hops over curbs and stuff. Just a fun dream doing that until I wake up.

Roller-blading # 2
So close to achieving my roller-blading goal in this one.

I'm at the school park, down the road from my house. There is a paved trail around the park. I'm skating along the trail at a pretty good speed. (In real life they had made little hills, and the paved trail goes over the hills. It's just something to make it more fun for the kids I guess. they are there in the dream as well.) I skate up to one of the hills, and decide to use it as a jump. I jump up as I'm going up the hill. I catch a little air, and land smoothly on the down side of the hill.

I keep going until I get to another one. I'm a little more brave this time. I hit it going a bit faster, and I jump up a little harder. I catch more air this time and I miss the down side of the hill. I wonder if I will have a smooth landing and I do.( Didn't get quite enough air to get Lucid.) I skate around the trail until I come to this big hill.
I see this little rusty jeep. I check it out. It's kind of like a small go-cart. with the body of a jeep built around it. I open the hood, and there is no engine.

I start pushing it up the hill. Thinking it will be fun to hop in and coast down the hill. like a soap box racer. I get to the top, hop in and ride down the hill. It was kind of fun.
I push it back up the hill.

This time I see a spot where there is another smaller hill near the bottom of the one I'm on. So it kind of dips down climbs up, then descends really steep again. I hop in and start riding down. I go through the dip up over the smaller hill. It's now so steep and sandy, that the front wheels of the jeep dig in. The jeep flips over forward, and rolls end over end the rest of the way down the hill. And it finally stops on it's side. I climb out thrilled. I'm like now that's more like it.

I look up and I notice that behind the hill is a high cliff. There are tons of kids here now. I see kids jumping from the cliff, and gliding smoothly to the ground. They are having a contest to see who can glide the farthest. I'm wondering how the heck they can glide like that.

I realize that they are using this new Nerf toy. You can hold one in each hand. They will catch air currents and let you glide aways. Though I'm aware that they were not meant for cliff jumping. Just short little hops through the air. The kids don't care though. It looks like fun and I wish I could try it. But I'm to big they won't hold my weight. They are just made for kids. the smaller you are the better you will glide.

I climb up into a cave thats not to far up the side of the cliff. There are teenagers in there hanging out and smoking. I get out my cigarettes and start smoking. I hang out there for a while until I wake up.

Comments
Roller-blading, jumping on roller-blades. riding that jeep down the hill, Cliff jumping, smoking. Subconscious was really trying to help me get Lucid in that dream.

One of these times, I'm going to catch enough air on my Roller-blades to get Lucid! I know it!
