Thread: Lucid Task for the Month of March 2008

You didn't consciously create that scene, you were already getting shot as you went lucid. After you went lucid you stopped getting shot and just slap fought?

Judges?

Was he still shooting you after you were lucid? If not then I would say to try again.

Based strictly on what was written in his post, I'd have to say no and please try again. Even if he was lucid and walked into the bullets.. he knew they wouldn't hurt him as that's how he became lucid.

Damnit! I just had a LD and completely forgot about the tasks. All I did was try to have sex the whole dream. Oh well, there's next time.

Sex is bad! Don't tell me that you had sex in your lucid dream. I yell at you

I yell at you

Oh noes! The dreamguide yells at me. Ruuuunnn!!

Hey PJ, i got one this after noon before i went off to taekwondo practice, heh heh.

I did the advanced one:

Ill make it short and to the point, but if you want more info on the dream you can have such. It was just a really long failed OBE attempt and placed into LD event, lol.

Anyway, ill jump to the part where i made the object come to life.

I walked into my room, and saw my game boy. I walked over to it, and started to play. This is weird, because i dont normally play my game boy... like ever, but i had the urge to in my dream lol. Anyway, after being lucid the whole time, i was trying to see if i could make the dudes in the game boy come to life, when i thought hey, i should try the task of the month. So, (i was playing the game called Tekken), i made my game boy come to life. What i did was stood in front of it after placing it on a table, cupped my hands over the screen that displayed Hiachi (a character of the game), and i rose my arms. Then the game boy lifted up, and sprouted arms and legs just like Hiachi had. This was so insanly funny, but then i looked back at it and it had the tuffs of hair like Hiachi has on his side burns. I was laughing so hard, and all the game boy wanted to do was fight me. I simply pushed it over and held my hand on the game pad place, and he was squirming like a turtle, then i thought turtle and walked outside, but that part of the dream wouldnt make sense to anyone lol. So, i successfully made my gameboy come to life... lol.

Nothing happend so I took some pixie dust out of my pocket and threw it on the piano and said, "speak." The pedels on the piano started moving and making noise. I told it to move and it did. The I opened the cover that was covering the keys and told it to dance. It played music on its own and went around in circles. I grabbed onto it and danced with it and sang. I told like my singing voice in real life, but in my dream I could sing like an opera singer.

Wow, that is really the best 'bringing to life' I've seen so far. Very creative of having a piano 'dance' to it's own music .

Thanks Sara and Ninja. The piano was playing music I had never heard before, of course now I can not remember how the melody goes, but it is cool to think that our minds can just make up music like that.

Yeah, that was a cool piano dream good job. I want to play with a piano while Lucid sometime.

Here is my attempt at the basic task last night. I woke from the dream before I could complete it though. But, just glad to be ending this dry spell.

A Lucid Dream
Wednesday/March/5/2008
Lucid Dream # 14 of 2008
Malfunctioning device dreamsign noticed
Reality check induced Lucidity
Basic Lucid task attempted

I'm driving my car, on my way to work. It's early morning, and the sun isn't up yet. I notice That my headlights are not on. I push on the headlight switch but nothing happens.(I've had some real life issues with my headlights going out on me. But I recently got it fixed.) I smack it hard. still nothing more than a flicker. I try the high beam lever, still nothing. I decide to pull over before I get pulled over by a cop. I get out of the car, and look at the front headlights, while reaching into the car and messing with the switch. (I must have extra long arms now in order to do that lol.) I get the headlights to flicker, and then they come on. But they are really dim, like a flashlight with low batteries. And they give off no light at all.

I now remember a recent dream I had, where I had the same type of dim headlights occur. So I pinch my nose, and I can breath. Instantly Lucid.the first thing I experience is relief that my headlights are not really messed up again. Second, is the joy of being Lucid again. Third, is the comprehension that I no longer need to continue on my way to work. I notice that I'm wearing a heavy jacket. I don't feel like wearing it in my dream, so I take it off and drop it on the ground.

The weather is kind of nasty though. It's rainy, and I actually feel cold without my jacket on. I think about putting the jacket back on. But defiantly, I refuse to let the dream control me in that way. I know I don't have to feel cold if I don't want to.
As soon as I stop thinking about it, I don't notice the cold anymore.

I walk out into the street, leap into the air, and begin to fly. I notice all the colorful traffic lights at different intersections along the road. I remember that there are many tasks that I have planned. I try to think of what the first priority was. Then I remember, prove I'm indestructible. So I land, and the first thing that comes to mind, is to let a car run me over. Should be easy enough to find moving vehicles in a dream right?

Not this time, the city is lifeless! Nothing is moving but the occasional changing traffic lights. All the windows in the houses are dark. So I decide, that maybe if I invade one of these houses, I will wake up and piss off some DC's, and they will try to kill me or something. And I will let them try.

I run across the nearest yard, and leap into the air. Diving headfirst with my hands out in front of me like a diver, into the nearest window of the house. My hands penetrate the glass, and I can feel the glass smoothly slide along my body, as I pass flawlessly through it.

I find myself on like a three season porch. Still no people, or nothing going on here.
So I decide to go through the wall, into the next room. I put my hands together, palms facing outwards. Then push my hands into the wall. They sink right in. Then I pull my hands apart, tearing a huge hole in the wall. But, I have not dug all the way through. I begin repeating the process, trying to dig a tunnel through the wall.( Didn't even consider trying to use the door lol.)

Before I can get through the wall though, I wake up.

So, no completed task this time. It was a fun try though.

Oh well, sounds like it was fun

Damn it! I've had awesome lucids the last three nights in a row. I havent been able to remember the tasks to save my life!

I don't understand. I'm so excited about the inanimate object one, you'd think I would remember. It sounds like everyone is having great fun with it.

2 nights ago I had an LD and did the basic task.

I was hanging from a 3 story building, but i thought that falling from that height wasn't good enough to prove i was indestructable, so i turned gravity sideways. I let go and fell for a good minute before hitting some sort of wall that looked like internet pop ups. anyways i just stood there after falling miles sideways without any harm.

Dang, I was so close by accident. I convinced myself I couldn't fly, but I used my jacket as a parachute so it didn't prove I was indestructible. Just good at convincing myself that things will work... Here's the dream anyways, (just because it was cool and I remembered the February task for a couple minutes though I didn't carry it out since I got distracted as you will see). I'll try next time if I remember (and the dream is stable).

EDIT: That's a good idea Graysong. I'll wrap this thing in spoiler tags to to not clutter up the page too much.

Spoiler for Flying to a Cloud Dream:

Flying to a Cloud


I was crossing the major road we have here in our town/city. It basically is the backbone of the town (and naturally it is getting filled with traffic). I saw a Baskin-Robins on the left. "I wish I had some money," I thought. I found a quarter which I think was on a tree branch. It looked... a little weird but nothing too different. I started looking for more. I found two more coins I took to be quarters... but something was wrong with them. They were very big. They were shaped like octagons... They were made in 2000 but they didn't look like any quarters I knew... They... weren't real! Of course! I was dreaming. The scene instantly changed and I was on a hillside. I was looking directly at my friends face (also my partner taking the job of the "doer" in Write it Do it where we got first place) but the dream started to fade as usual. "Ridiculous," I thought, "the dream shouldn't be fading." I started to question why the dream would even fade. I guessed I just always believed it would. But it shouldn't. After making this simple connection the dream came back. So that was my problem. I expected the dreams to fade.

I looked around a little. The dream was still a bit unstable. There were flickers here and there. I figured this would calm in a couple moments and it did. Out loud I said that I would remain in this dream for at least 15 minutes to increase my confidence. OK... well... hmm... I could fly as usual I guessed. I hopped up and went into a great and well controlled flight. As soon as I got past the hill, I looked below and found I was about 2000 feet above a small town. Each building was surrounded by green from trees, grass, and small plants. It was very pretty. I turned left. "So this is what some people meant when they said a lucid dream could be the best moment of their lives," I thought. It made me really happy. Unfortunately I lost a minute or so of the dream upon waking, but I had gotten down to the town and I was walking (still lucid) with a couple young girls. I remembered the task for February, and decided to try it even though it was March. I "fell" into some underground chamber. I saw another young girl and decided to ask her for something I didn't know about myself. Before I could, she asked if I had seen her pony. Err... rather than get too tied up in a plot to find a pony I left and continued down this underground tunnel. I got above ground again, but I got stuck inside a brick wall! Don't ask me how, I just did!

The view switched to third person. I could see "my" leg stuck in one side of the wall. I had somehow become a female? Whatever, I needed to get out of this wall. Maybe... someone was on the other side and he was going to blow it up. That thought didn't work. My floating but still stuck self looked to the left. Some guy (a bad guy I thought) was also stuck in the wall but he had an enormous hammer. That was my ticket out of here. The guy needed to smash the hammer into the wall since his arms were through and he could move his elbows. "I" got shot in the leg. Of course, being a dream and not even in "my" body I didn't feel a thing. The guy with the hammer started to smash it. It felt like I was controlling it in a way. He finally broke it and "I" fell onto the sidewalk below and came back into "my" body. But I was a girl. Hmm, whatever. I sort of reached in and removed the bullet, just to be on the safe side so that I didn't have to think it would slow me down or something. My science teacher as on the left, and I was facing a building. I wanted to fly back over the town. As I jumped to fly, she began to chant "Girls! Girls! Girls" and then "666, 666, 666!" Err... alright then. Some people below told her not to say that and they started to ask each other of the origin. For some reason I thought "Swedish" so of course someone below yelled that out. I looked it up and I was really wrong though. Soon enough I was back to normal and a guy again.

I continued to fly. I took off my jacket and felt cooled off. I thought it would be fun to parachute with my jacket. Anything was possible over all. I convinced myself I couldn't fly. I tried, but fell just as I wanted. I was going down very fast and when I used my jacket I stopped instantly. Pretty fun I thought. I looked up at the sky. It actually looked normal. I could see the moon. I thought it would be very fun to fly to it. But... that was too ambitious for right now. I saw a cloud, and decided to fly there instead. I took off and kept going up and up. The cloud kept getting closer. The dream was fading. I looked down to regain my senses. OK, a little more. It all faded to black, and I woke up.

For the basic task I WILDed into my room where I had a guitar on my lap. So I tried hitting myself with the guitar. Then I ran into a mirror(which I seem to do a lot). But I felt that those didn't suffice.

So I kicked a hole in my window and jumped out from the second floor, ending up on my neighbor's lawn. It was really a dark yet serene place with the vast sky up. And that was the end.

I seemed to have managed the Advanced Task, however hazy the dream was...

Spoiler for Graysong's Dream:

I was lucid, but perhaps only in knowing I was dreaming; my mind's clarity was for wanting.

I was walking the halls of the school of younger days, which was more or less deserted. I could see a door to the outside down a lengthy hallway. It seemed to be night, but an orange glow lit the walkway outside, presumably from a street lamp.

I entered a classroom, and found it to bear a number of my friends and acquaintances. They stood around desks, making idle conversation. Striding across the room, I now became fully aware of my dream state. Still a bit hazy, I struggled to recall the Task. I remembered the Basic Task, but could not invoke the Advanced, my goal. I questioned this of a nearby DC, who, if I remember correctly, informed me of last month's Task. After long enough, however, I grasped the Task.

Walking to a counter nearby, I observed a number of crude sketches on loose leaf paper. One resembled what I now realize was the 'Gingerbread Man.' I gestured at this paper, at which point the creature lifted itself from the paper on which it was created. He stumbled a few feet, looked about at his now very confused audience, before performing a daring feat of acrobatics by leaping from the counter, swinging around several surfaces, and scrambling out the door.

From this point onward, the dream is relatively uneventful, so I will close this entry.

As usual, I wrapped the dream in 'Spoiler Tags' for the sake of others viewing the page.

Congrats TimeStopper and Graysong, I'll go get your wings.

lol I didn't know what I was doing hitting myself with that guitar

Meh, on a dry spell. Haven't been able to attempt the task. *mumbles*

So I had a quick LD last night, and hopefully what I did counts for the basic task

I tried the advanced one, too, but failed.

I'm in this weird kind of place that's sort of like a gigantic cave (but really disproportionate, like several the "ceiling" is several thousand feet high), and instantly lucid. I look around, and think of doing the basic task. I notice there's a kind of contest going on, conveniently enough, where some guys are trying to climb a sort of skyscraper. I decide I'll take a leap off that, and try to fly up to it. However, I float up into the air a bit, and then just fall back down.

After a bunch of tries, I still don't manage to do it, and decide to try something else. Taking a kind of running start, I try to walk forwards and upwards on thin air. Surprisingly enough, it works out perfectly. I airwalk to the top of the building, and I think some announcer through a megaphone mentions it. There's a kind of cushion on the ground that I use as a target (although I guess it was kinda stupid if I'm trying to prove I'm indestructible). I jump off, and try to position myself so that I'll hit neck/head first. I land without pain, and do several more jumps before stopping, to the applause of the audience each time.

I now decide to try the advanced lucid task. Looking around for stuff to animate, I decide on this weird kind of golden belt thing. It's kinda hard to describe, and my recall is a bit fuzzy. Anyways, I put my hand on it and will it to become alive. However, even with several tries, I think there's some mild motion from the belt, but it just ends up being inanimate.

The last thing I recall is going towards a mirror, seeing a corridor in the reflection (although I wasn't in one), and thinking to myself that I should try to go inside the mirror. I did so, and I don't remember anything after.

I got my first proper LD last night, and I tried the Basic one:

I woke up in bed, and got up, to watch a movie I've been dying to see. I went downstairs, and began to watch, but there was a huge crash from my room before I got a chance to get fully into the movie (it's not an actual movie, something my crazy mind made up). I went upstairs, and it was around here I gained lucidity. I can remember that there was some kind of monster, who I instantly knew was my enemy, and I began to fight him. He was throwing fireballs at me, but I kept on dodging them. To win the battle, I had to get something before him, so I ran out the window (WTF?), and jumped off the roof. I picked up something that looked like a knife, and remembered the task. I stabbed myself with it, and no blood came out. I lost lucidity there, and after that, I can barely remember. I urgently to do something, but I couldn't remember what it was, so I summoned a Remembrall from Harry POtter, and looked inside. I walked outside, and did a few things which I can't quite make out in my DJ, and then I went to a farm, to see what it was like to milk a cow. After that, I woke up because of my alarm.

First of all, this dream wasn't fully lucid, I had control over my actions but I didn't feel completely in control, like auto pilot, in a few parts. I tried the invincible challenge.

My dream starts, I'm in a hall/tunnel thing; I realize I'm in a dream because it looks like a level I made for a game once and the surfaces have textures that I recognize. the walls are covered with tiles, big square tiles. two tiles on top of each other reach from the floor to the roof. The tiles seem to be made of marble and look purpleish blue. These tiles are on the walls and the floor and the roof. There is water on the ground, about half a foot. Me and a few others, one woman who is in front, others who don't seem to matter. We're moving through the tunnel. We come to a point where we can keep going straight or turn to the right. We keep going straight, soon I notice that its just me and the girl. The tunnel starts to slope upwards and as we move forwards there is no water in the tunnel. The tunnel comes to an opening and I can look out of the tunnel onto a huge room. The floor is like 20 meters below me and the roof is like 10 meters above me. At first I'm really scared, then I remember its a dream because I notice blocky mapping. There are huge square pillars all around this room, I notice that their 64 units wide and long (In the program I use everything is measured in these units that are a little smaller than an inch). Everything in the room is covered in the same tiles and I notice people at the bottom. A lot of them are standing in pairs talking. I turn back to the girl who is holding a gun now. She just kind of stands there. I turn around and jump off. I land harmlessly and get up, I walk to some guy in a trench coat and tell him that I cant loose (I mean die ) I tell him nothing can hurt me. the girl is next to me now. I feel I have to prove it to him so I turn around and go to the left where there is an opening at ground level. Its a sloped tunnel that goes for a while then turns right, then it keeps going and it turns out to be the tunnel that connected from the right at the beginning of my dream. I turn right and move to the opening again, that girl is following me with this gun that seems to be getting bigger and bigger as the dream progresses, and I jump immediately. I go down legs first slanted back a little, I sort of wave my arms as I go down. I get that falling feeling. I land on my legs and breath in deeply. I run back to the entrance to jump again but the dream fades.

My first lucid dream that lasts and all I do is jump off ledges in a low detail level from a game! I'm so annoyed with myself.

Congrats to wildman and Hawthorn, I'll PM admins to get your wings.

Alex - Hmm, I need a second opinion from Clairity. You knew you were indestructible, but you never actually got shot or fell, you kind of slid down a slope, if I'm reading it right.

I'm not sure either, but it wasn't a slope, a vertical 20 meter drop:

This is kinda what it looked like:

It was sooo weird to recognize the tiles on the wall from this tool in my dream.

i dont know if this counts, but last night i had a lucid where i was hanging with friends and they wanted to get in a car and fall off of a building in it and we did. it was pretty sweet, my stomach dropped like i was on a roller coaster.
