Thread: An Odd Trend...

It seems as if I'm starting to get my "touch" back as far as becoming lucid, as I've become lucid twice in the last 4-5 days.

Here's the weird thing though... both times that I became lucid I became completely evil and violent. It's almost as if I realize I have this power and it instantly corrupts me. For this reason I would not say that I'm achieving a high level of lucidity. I say to myself "this is a dream," but it doesn't quite seem to mean the same thing.

In the first dream, I separated from myself after attaining lucidity, leaving me, the lucid self, facing the non lucid self that had no idea what was going on. I absolutely beat the crap out of him, finally throwing him through a widescreen TV all bruised and bloodied.

Last night I spit in the face of a former (and very nice) elementary school teacher and went on to try to beat up a host of other DC's. They all just kind of looked at me sadly like "what are you doing?" as I, in a rage, continued to thrash them.

It's just so weird because I'm the most non-violent person I know, and I have a very specific set of objectives I want to accomplish while being lucid and I never even remember them during the dream.

What do you think?

Sounds like you where semi lucid, if you had full lucidy you should have full control of yourself and you should be able to rem the objectives you wanna do.

I had a string of non lucid dreams that were alarmingly violent. I think our psyche works in mysterious ways. More over people that are very, non violent. I think it is part of human nature and normal, to a degree to harbor some feeling s of resentment or anger. In dreams it may come out a little opaque some times. It is often hard to interpret our dreams. In my opinion, I think that every aspect of our dreams are not to be interpreted. It seems that some get a little to literal in this sense.

I would try to remind myself of your goals as you go to sleep. With the hopes this will come to mind as you become lucid.
Also I think it is too an aspect and characteristic of our human make up to want to (at times ) to test those waters of invincibility that we acquire while lucid.

Thanks for the advice.

It was almost nightmarish... I can't describe the looks on their faces when I flipped out. It was pure terror and almost like they were disappointed. So weird. God i love dreams.

Exactly. I'm a kid who is completely non-violent but when i'm by myself sometimes i surprise myself when my mind wonders onto things such as beating the shit out of someone that did something as simple as not saying Thank-You to me... i havent experienced it in a dream yet, but i believe those harbored feelings need to leave our body in some way, we'd go absolutely insane if they didnt.
