Thread: Deadbeatbassist and his dreams

Hey Ben, welcome to DV I found about lucid dreaming the same way as you, just randomly had one one day

If you really want to learn more, make sure to check out the tutorials. I highly recommend reading these few, they're invaluable in learning to lucid dream:

The basics of the Dream Induced Lucid Dream (realizing you are dreaming while in a dream )
Building up Dream Recall to remember your dreams
Identifying Dream Signs, which indicate that you are dreaming and make you lucid
What Reality Checks are, to make sure you learn to question whether or not you are dreaming

Definitely the best way to build up the memory of what dreams you had during the night is to make sure to write them all down So now that you've started it, you're on a great start Just remember to keep updating your dream journal!

no dreams last night.

I have a placed a pen and paper on my night stand. I also have changed the bulb in my lamp to a low watt red one. Just enough to see the paper.

Lets see if I will have better luck this night.

Over the weekend I think alcohol inhibited my REM sleep. Tonight I hope for the best.

Success. One Fragmented dream recall.

I was at work and a coworker came to work that is currently in jail. I asked him how he got out and he said he paid the guard. His eyes looked different. The Iris was an off white.

This is good, one dream recall from last night. hopefully it will only get easier.

Last night I went took a b6 and melatonin supplement. I wont say it worked wonders but it may have helped. I went to bed at 9 and since I did not have to wake up at my normal 4:00 AM for work this morning I did not turn off that alarm. Instead I was planing of writing down any dreams I had immediately. It was unsuccessful. I rolled over shut the alarm of when went instantly back to bed. Any suggestions on how to avoid this?

I did have one fragmented dream. I will write down what I remember. I was talking to my sister in my bed room about this and that, nothing abnormal just usual chit chat. She leaves the room and while she is got I take a pretty hefty hit from a blue bong. At that point I should have known I was dreaming because I do not smoke in my bed room and would never take a hit shortly after my sister leaves the room. My sister then comes back in the room midway through the longer-than-normal exhale and starts bitching at me for smoking in my room. She then acts as if it is no big deal and that is all I remember.

Nothing last night.

Nothing visual to remember from last night. I do remember a falling feeling just before drifting to sleep

hello again.

It has been awhile since I have updated this dream journal. Unfortunately I only have one fragment to report.

I was walking around my house and took out my dirty laundry including my pants which I religiously check the pockets before throwing them in. I remember checking the pockets throwing the jeans in then walking away. My mother finds me shortly after that and shows me my new blackberry water logged and broken.

That is all

I wish I had some thing to write. I am getting a bit frustrated at my poor dream recall. I did sleep very poorly last night becasue if some stupid cold probably did not help. I also have put my name out for being adopted.

I have one dream that I remembered from last night. Nothing exiting.

I was walking down the street thinking about my motorcycle that needs some work done to it. I just so happen to walk passed University Mazda (car dealership). I go inside and I see a girl that I have had off and on romantic feelings since middle school.

I walk up to her. The desk she is sitting is is very short so in an effort to see her more eye to eye I get on my knees. I can think of nothing to say. I am frozen admiring her beauty. She has the most elegant black hair parted to the left. I then get the butterflies out of my stomach (quite literally). Two butterflies flutter up my throat and fly away. I then ask "do you service motorcycles?" She nods but says nothing.

I then slowly raise to my feet and walk outside and start washing a red SUV. I have no idea whos it is but I just start to wash it. Sure enough it is her car. She walks out and starts watching me. Never talking just watching me wash her car.

My phone goes off on my nightstand and I wake up.

not a great night of dreaming but I have a fragment.

I was sitting in a big comfortable bean bag chair in space. all I remember is different destinations we stopped in space. I do not remember traveling between points. I remember Mars and Jupiter. All the other planets I had never seen before. One was like a green sun. It was pretty sweet. http://coolcosmos.ipac.caltech.edu/c.../sun_euv19.gif

YES

one more lucid dream after a very long time of no dreams what so ever. I will be thanking the blackberry phone I have for inducing this lucid dream. It has a ring tone that is called "Lucid" it makes some pretty sweet chiming noise that I have heard in some subliminal mp3s I have heard. I set it for my ring tone and whenever it goes off I say out loud (if I can with out sounding like a crazy) "am I dreaming" and then do the finger through and reality check.

Well my finger went through my hand last night while I was dreaming. because my dream recall is so bad I will tell you what bits I can remember and hopefully writing and thinking about it will help me remember.

at one point it was raining pretty hard and I did not like that very much I tried to just think about the rain going away and that did not work. Next I tried to spin around and around and try to go somewhere else entirely. That did not work either so I checked to see if I was dreaming again. Yup, finger just keeps going through the palm of my hand but why cant I do anything?

I also remember never going through a door. To get to the next room I would take my hands into the wall and pull open a hole and walked though. That was pretty fun and easy.

Rubbing hands together help me stay dreaming longer. At some point in my dream I felt like I was going to wake up. Which by the way is an odd feeling. I remembered that rubbing your hands together would do something helpful and it was. I rubbed them together and did some more things.

Like I said I do not remember most of it but I remember knowing I was dreaming and trying some new things.

my dreams must be boring to read.
