It's quite simple. Just choose your favorite family member, then sacrifice them to the sun god Ra. That pretty much did it for me. My mom will be sorely missed.Quote:

Aww... :hug: I don't know where I'd be without the help of the DVA staff (and you, paigeyemps, are DVA staff 4 life.)Quote:

Anyhow, I'd "Like" your post but this entire feature (along with the dream journals) has apparently been trashed. I've tried to tell you, Paige -- blood-pacts with Egyptian deities have consequences! :cheeky:
LOL Canis! **Like** awww thank you :hug:
Oop, I had a lucid today. I think it was due to the miniWBTB I did at dawn when I got up to charge my ipad.
The lucid was quite stable. I had a false awakening where I woke up and realized the girl on the shampoo bottle was talking to me. I got lucid, phased through the walls and flew up with angel-type wings. I also got to suspend the rain, sort of. It was raining and I waterbent it so the raindrops were suspended in mid-air. I've been wanting to do that for a while, somewhere in the back of my mind. :
:)

Dang.. I'm envious of how many lucids you have.. It's interesting to hear about some of those fantasy-like lucid goals you do and how amazing it must be to experience them.

Pausing the rain like that sounds amazing... I'm adding that to my LD to-do list! That is such great stuff. I search in vain for the "Like" button.
Ooh, did you get to sort of walk/fly around while the rain was suspended in place? I think that'd be mind-blowing.
I am beginning to thnink that you might exceed my lifetime LD count in a single month. :D
Nah, I did the rain thing after I landed, since I only noticed it was raining when I hit the ground :(
Woop, and you'll get plenty of lucids too! Just keep swimming nanana..
I had a lucid today. Just wanted to put it in quickly before I went to school. I might not be back til much later and end up forgetting to journal it here. x)
EDIT: I'm back!
It was a DILD, and I got lucid when someone was chasing me, which is one of my dream signs. Plugged my nose and kicked that mofo chaser into space. :D
It was only a few minutes, but I got to do some cool waterbending thingies. I don't know why, but in my mind, I always get the urge to "practice" my waterbending so I could get better. There's just something about freezing the water and shooting them at random DCs that excites me so much haha!
Spoiler for November Lucid Goals:
This coming December I'm gonna make a full report about my progress since I started lucid dreaming. Gonna do some evaluation and stuff. :)
I had a really interesting lucid today. First of all, I earthbent really nicely. It was great because I always suck at earthbending, and this time I lowered a long strip of land deeper into the ground to make a sort of pool. Then I filled it with water via waterbending. Then something cool happened. Some animals started popping up in the water and the area around it, like it was forming its own ecosystem.
The really interesting part came next. I started to notice the dream shifting. I could literally hear this conversation between two people growing louder, as if it was a new dream and it was slowly being superimposed on the current one. I started losing lucidity, which I noticed distinctly. I could feel myself kind of "falling back asleep", and I had a hard time struggling to hold on to the awareness. It was very hard because I didn't know how to do it, or what I was even supposed to do. And worse, I knew I wasn't waking up — the dream was just taking a turn.
At one point I considered waking myself up and attempting a DEILD, but I decided against it because I wasn't sure how to wake up. I could try closing my eyes and reopening them but that rarely wakes me up, as I'm used to doing it without causing waking problems.
Wellllll I eventually lost lucidity. Haha. x) But it was a cool experience, I don't think I've ever noticed the dream literally changing. It was always either I can't remember the shift, or I wake up and return to a different dream. I also didn't think it would shift like that, like a new dream being overlayed into the current one. Cool! :D
Spoiler for November Lucid Goals:
Paige!! You were terraforming! So very very cool. One of my long-term, super-advanced lucid goals is to travel to Mars and terraform it (in other words, take an inhospitable planet and make it Earth-like.) Love it.
It's interesting that you actually felt the sensation of lucidity slipping away. Now that you've awakened and had time to think about it, what is the solution? Did you try talking or shouting out loud that you are experiencing a lucid dream? When I start getting insecure about my foothold in the dream world, I tend to start blabbing about this out loud as a sort of constant reminder.
Great stuff as usual. :banana:
I honestly still have no idea how to go about it. It's really hard to describe the feeling — trying to hold on to something intangible, and even more, it's in the dream world too!Quote:

While it was happening, I couldn't see properly. The environment was very very hazy, and I couldn't speak too. But I kept thinking and mentally repeating some words in my native dialect which roughly translates to "i'm still dreaming, i'm still dreaming" while trying to let the conversation go on. I was hoping I could stay lucid even after the new dream fully formed, since I figured there was no way to make it go away and stay in the current dream. I hope to experience it again soon, so I can try again :D
Hey Paige :)
It's cool to read through a workbook like yours, you have been dedicated for so long.. so many updates.
Very interesting!
<3
Aww thanks! I can never bring myself to leave the Intro Class, so you're all stuck with me! Muhahahaha :evil:Quote:

I had three lucids this morning! :party:
The first one was a DILD and the rest were DEILDs. The first one was really long and stable, though mostly I just explored and touched things and talked to random people and did some flying. The DEILDs were shorter, and I was in the ocean, breathing underwater and tried talking to aquatic animals. It was really interesting because I could hear their thoughts sort of. Like i knew what they were saying even if they just looked at me.
x)
Very nice!! I am mucho impressed by your skills. I've still yet to have more than one LD in a single morning (apart from chaining or regaining awareness inside the same LD.)
I have to get this DEILD business nailed down. Hey, did you do your counting thing for these DEILDs? Or do you just sort of pop in?
Great job as usual! I want what you've got! :goodjob:
Thanks Canis! :D And nope, I didn't do the counting thing this time since I fell back into the dream pretty quickly. Not sure why that was though. :3
As usuall, paigy is in the lead.
Congratulations on those lucids, even though I think that congratulating you is a bit of an underestimating of your abilities paigy, considering that you have lucid dreams almost every day, hope you had fun, and as always, keep on dreaming!
Awww thanks haithem :') and I did have fun. I didn't have all these lucids just by sitting here though! All the hard work and dedication reslly pays off. It's all worth it! Good luck to you too!
Hi guys, I won't be updating my workbook for a few days. I'm taking some time off this week because of a huge ass typhoon heading our way.
See ya guys soon! :D
Ok paigy, stay safe!
We'll miss you while you're gone... you and yours please keep safe! Bopha / Pablo sounds like no joke.
Do what you need to do to stay out of harm's way and we'll see you in a few days!
First of all...AWESOME! :)Quote:

Anyway, point being that it would seem you are at the point now with awareness, that you can choose to either retain full awareness or shift into a lower awareness state. This is an awesome and powerful skill you can use to retain awareness all night, every night.
I am jealous :P
p.s. once you master that transition, you will be able to learn how to enter back into lucidity after some time. There were times during these states of awareness that I experienced where I would want to become lucid, but it seemed I did not have the energy, so I would remain in the lower state of awareness. This could have been partly my expectations, but who knows.
p.s.s. About remembering goals...Maybe try something indirect? Like a mailbox, or a list you have in your pocket. ;)
cheers!
Hi guys, I'm back! :D
Didn't have any lucids on my time away, though my dream recall was fairly good :3
