I have to tell somebody. sometimes family members think your crazy when you talk about this stuff (i'm so glad i found this community!!!) So here it goes. Im having a crazy non-lucid dream, driving very dangerously. I arrived at a house with some dream characters. I realize i have no clue who these people are, as im walking through the door my consciousness tells me "Jen your dreaming" and that's when i say outloud in my dream over and over. Jen your dreaming. I walk through the door and every color,especially yellows are so bright. I remeber being fascinated with how it resembles reality, hard to tell the difference. Then one of my stranger dream characters comes out and throws a pillow at me(i feel it hitting me) At this time i knew i was dreaming so tried to shoot some beam out of my hands at him but nothing happened, he just looked at me like i was crazy. I then went up to this girl dream character who had her head down the whole time, her hair had these crazy streaks of pink in her hair and her body was real sickly looking. I remember in my dream thinking that her face would look like a demon but i had to know, i had to get past that fear. i lifted her chin slowly and come to find out she was a regular chic but just had a jacked up face. I remember trying to meditate and imagine me being by the ocean, but the moment i tried to close my eyes and quiet my mind i felt myself going unconscious. The lucid dream ended. This makes my second lucid dream, the first one i had scared me because the scenery was all static (tv on poltergeist) in that dream thats what tipped my off that i was dreaming. In the lucid dream i had last night it was just being in the presence of strange dream characters and i realized it was a dream so thats i first. usually i just go along with them. hopefully in time i will be able to do what i want to do in my dreams. And my false awakening, that was some scary shit.
