There was a giant full moon in the sky, literally big 1/3 of the sky but i did't get lucid.
I supposed it was only getting closer to earth. :/

While I was dreaming, unaware I was dreaming, I wanted to try to have a lucid dream. Spent the next 20 minutes laying in the sand and on the back of a fish in the water trying to fall asleep and have a lucid dream. Woke up and realized how dumb I am.
I have short hair, but my dream decided to give me long rastahair.
Didn't notice it was odd.
Not so stupid as frustrating. I couldn't fly! I jumped up *twice* in the air to fly and gravity was absolutely waking-like. I somehow thought that if you wanted it enough, you could fly. After plopping down to the ground waking-gravity-style, TWICE, I sort of chuckled to myself how silly it was that I thought I could fly and gave it no further thought….ARGH! WHY NOT NOSE PINCH YOU DULL-BRAINED-DREAM-ME!
This is my best so far:
I was at a lucid dreaming festival.
Could not become lucid :alien:.
Wow what a night. My SC is doing its best to help me get lucid and I IGNORE THEM ALL:
+ feel like I'm getting lucid, get an adrenaline rush, nose pinch, can't breathe! Nooooooooooo,! Went on afterwards "pretending" to be lucid for a while, before getting concerned that "they" could see me from the open window across the way.
+ Barrage of back-to-back "WTF!? moments". I enter my childhood home, something's wrong. Enter the living room, it's like it's been rearranged. Someone is lying on the couch (my wife?), no, it's just blankets shaped like someone was lying underneath them, including empty slippers where the feet should be. Go open the front door concerned that it was unlocked (it was), and there's a "scary" bicycle there. Walk up to the street and someone built a fence blocking off almost the entire front of our house. It turns out on the street a film crew has erected a massive two-story filming structure.
I mean, please, do I win the award now for stupidest, most missed dream signs in a single dream in 2014?!
Last night I literally dreamed of watching an LDing tutorial and the guy kept saying reality checks but of course I never thought to do one
FA. "Woke up," checked watch. The time read: LD:1. For some reason, thought I just caught the time right on the hour. Went "back" to sleep.

What a great thread though some of the reasons are priceless.

I even nodded and confirmed to her I was dreaming in the dream! haha I was being ever so careful to not move too much and ruin my WILD attempt in the dream. At least my great focus on dreaming and lucidity are making their way into my dreams, it's only a matter of time and persistence now.
Yea man that is good sign and one that i just experienced as well.Quote:

So I awoke from a dream in another dream aware of the first dream but unaware that I was still dreaming. I even had the DC that was in the last dream there with me and we talked about having the same dream... I remember doubting it asking him are you sure you had that dream or are you just copying me? As connected as I would like to think we are, I don't think it's possible for us to dream the exact the same thing. The dream fell apart soon after that and I woke up. Another close call of starting to gain awareness but then having it snatched away... but at least I was talking about dreaming in the dream. More of this to come I am sure.
Just awoke from one of those dreams that supposedly proves that dreams can be so realistic you can't know your dreaming. The premis of the dream was that all of the denizens of the dream world were ultra-realistic DC, so realistic that they were completely life like, even if they were DCs of long dead villans from history. In defense of not knowing I was in a dream, even tho I was in a place were I knew everyone was a DC, the antagonist of the dream was planning on releasing these realistic historical and current villians on the real world (and had the dream power to do so). Thus how could I know they hadn't already done so and thus I might not be dreaming but could actually be in reality with the realistic DCs and not in a dream with them. (of course I was to busy noticing the quality of the DCs to actually observe the realism of the dreamscape) he he :)
Got another one for you guys I just remembered it, though I had it about a year ago.
I was getting ready to go to school I think and suddenly I recognized the feeling of dreaming, so I became lucid. I was pretty excited but kept my cool and then I checked the clock and panicked saying "OH FUCK I'M GONNA BE SO LATE FOR SCHOOL" then lost lucidity and rushed off in a panic to school.
It doesn't exactly fit the criteria since I didn't really "miss" becoming lucid but lost it instead, but I think it still counts for a facepalm.
Last night I had a dream I was reading a book on lucid dreaming....come on! Haha One of these days I'm going to catch these ques.
Aziq, do you know the origin of the quote in your sig? That is a great saying.
I'm afraid I have to dissapoint you since I don't know where it comes from. I came across it at some point on the internet.Quote:

When I was going to buy some clothes but said to the girl behind the counter, Ill be back later when I've got some cash because I dont have any right now. Then after I said that, I managed to pull out some cash from my left pocket, and bought multiple different clothes anyway.. Golden pants or just plain stupied, maybe a bit of both I guess:doh:
Last night I dreamt I ran around a grocery store yelling "I'M LUCID, I'M LUCID!!" for fun, but still didn't realize I was dreaming.
FAIL.
Oh come on! First WILD in moths and what do I do... I'm Tom Cruise at that moment as well : I have no shirt but at least my jeans, but then I notice something, I have no belt! = Searching for belt until waking up:makeitstop: help...halp
Last night I dreamed that I was reading a guide on how to have a WILD. I kept on thinking about how I wanted to have a lucid dream so badly.
9-10 dwarfs told me they are my lucid team,they wanted me to become lucid and I was like okay good luck with that
A girl on a swing singing a song called "Reality Check." While singing, she shapeshifts into an amorphous blob. I laugh nonlucidly through the whole thing.
