Introduction Ok, I'm going to start over with my Lucid Dream journal. I'm going to start moving all my Lucids here a little at a time from the beginning. Until I get caught up, I won't be posting any new Lucids here. But I will post the new ones in my regular journal

Any comments or questions are appreciated.

Night of 5-20-07

dry spell ended, at least I hope it is!

It starts out, that I am in my house, and it's just down pouring rain outside.   I go to the window, and look out. I see that the heavy rain, is causing a flood. the water is already up to the edge of the window, and rising fast. I feel the house actually start to move. It's getting lifted from it's foundation, and beginning to float. the flood water has a current, and is starting to push the house. The house starts to tilt on it's side, and I am on the side that is tilting into the air. The current gets stronger, and pushes the house into a roll. At the same time, I fall towards the lower part of the house, and begin to tumble around and bounce off the walls, as the house rolls a few times.

It's hard to describe what happens next, because I am a little disorientated. I'm not sure if I went out a window, or what. but  I distinctly remember entering the water, and the house falling away from me. The house is gone now all together, and I am getting pushed along at high speed. The momentum of the water is very powerful. I am desperately trying to twist and turn, to avoid getting slammed into things, like telephone poles and trees. and what ever else may be in my path.

Now the current starts to form a wave. I am on the top of the wave as if surfing. but I am still partially submerged in the water. I am kind of stuck there, the water has a good grip on me. the wave starts out not real huge, but it is growing as it washes forward. Until it becomes a massive wall of water, hundreds of feet high. It's just like in that movie impact, when the asteroid hits the ocean. And I am riding this monster thing! I can see lots of people running and screaming in terror, trying to get away. I am wondering, how I will manage to survive, once this thing comes crashing down.

Now I am having a hard time, comprehending the situation that I am in, and it starts to click that I am dreaming. At first it's just kind of wishful thinking. But as I think about it a little bit, the full realization that I am dreaming washes over me. (I love that feeling) I see all the people running in terror, and I feel bad for them. So I start yelling "this is a dream!" I yell it a few times. I want to let them know they don't have to be afraid.

I have gotten into the habit, of pretending that my dream characters are real people. but in my last half a dozen Lucid dreams, I have started doing it in an almost non-lucid way. so I think I will have to stop doing that.

I'm not sure what made me think, yelling this is a dream into a mob of panicked people, would make them feel better anyway. I give up on that and look around. I see that the wave is very wide. And I can see a couple of other people caught the way I am. I decide I will try to get up, and walk across the top of the wave. I don't like being stuck in the water the way I am. I figure once I get myself free, I will get the situation under control. and try for a Lucid task. Or talk to an animal. (Moonbeams Task) So I start to pull myself up from the water, But as I am getting to my feet I wake up:( This dream was pretty wild, and very vivid. I have a lot a dreams about motion. But this Tidal wave thing was a new one.

I used to have falling elevator dreams a lot. I never had a conscious fear of them. But, one time when I was kid, I got into an elevator alone. when I came to the floor I wanted, The doors would not open for me. I freaked out, and started banging on the doors yelling, until somebody came and got me out. this is the only explanation I can come up with for them. I started using the elevator dream as a dream sign, and I would become Lucid every time it happened. But it didn't take to long before I stopped having the dream. This is one of the last times that it happened, and the only one that really stuck in my mind.

A past Lucid Dream: Date unknown.

I step into the elevator, and the doors slide closed. There is another guy in the elevator with me. I am not sure if I pushed any buttons, but the elevator starts going down. I start to hear some strange sounds, then the elevator starts jerking around violently, then begins falling fast. Instantly I realize I am dreaming. I calmly sit down, with my back against the back wall, and my legs crossed. The other guy with me, is starting to freak out really bad. I say to him," relax this is a dream, we wont hit the ground, because there is no ground" then I tell him, that he should reach out with his thoughts, and he will be able to feel that it's a dream. Then he says to me," you know I think your right." I say, "I know I am right!" Then, I am sitting there for awhile just enjoying the falling. And I am making sure that we don't hit any ground, in a way that I don't know how to describe. then something odd happens. The walls of the elevator become transparent, like glass. And without noticing any change in motion, we are no longer falling, but flying across an amazing landscape, in a glass box. And I am controlling our flight. After flying for awhile I set us down. we get out, and I am about to go find some other adventure, when I wake up.

I wish this dream would still happen.

Lucid task for the month of May 2007 completed Uproot a tree and make it walk.

I am in an apartment with an old friend, when I suddenly become Lucid for no reason. My friend has the refrigerator door open, and is going through stuff. I think he is getting ready to make something to eat. I tell him he should quit doing what he is doing. because this is a dream, and he is wasting time. to my surprise he actually believes me. I don't think of the Lucid task right away. The first thing that I think of doing, is pinching my nose and trying to breath. I have wanted to try this since reading about it here. I tell my friend about it, and we are both sitting there pinching our noses and trying to breath. It takes me a few times to get it right. But eventually I have my nose pinched, and I am breathing fine.(it's kind of cool) So, my friend and I, walk out into the living room. I am all excited, and doing kind of an happy dance. And I am levitating pretty much everything in the room. I have stuff floating around all over the place. suddenly, I hear my friend say "Check this out." So I turn and Look. There are three copper colored bars, protruding from the top of his skull. The bars curve forward, and there are light bulbs screwed into the ends of them. It's Like there is a lamp stuck in his head. His eyes are open very wide, and bugging out of there sockets. And also, his eyes are rolling wildly in different directions. He has his hands above his head, and is holding onto the light bulbs and turning them. (I never saw anything quite like it before) I say "whoa cool trick man! I then run up the side of the wall. I jump off the wall, and try to spin through the air, and land on my feet. But I end up falling on my ass. I am thinking, man I have better skills than that! Now I am thinking, well I'm here Lucid, and I have no Idea what I want to do next. And I am thinking about how I had just mentioned, being in this situation, in a post on DV. Then I think Holy crap! The Lucid task! I get really excited, and I take off running towards the door. I spin once, hoping that it will help keep me in the dream long enough. I yank the door open, and go running down the hall as fast as I can. I get outside, and it is a little dark out. Suddenly, my eye lids feel real heavy. I am thinking, its because I don't have my glasses on. But I'm like, that can't be right, I don't need glasses in a dream. Then, Oh I bet it's because I'm stoned, That makes sense. ( I have not smoked pot in a lot of years) I stopped thinking about it and the sensation went away. I went looking for a tree. In front of the building was a group of medium size trees. It's pretty windy, and the trees are blowing around wildly. I reach out with my thoughts, and levitate the tree right out of the ground. The tree is now floating through the air, with it's roots dangling. Hmm, the task is make a tree walk, not fly! Now I notice that the trees are laughing at me.(kind of fascinating) So, I lower the tree so it's touching the ground. I make it kind of hop along a little bit. But it's roots are not moving, so it's not walking! I decide, I am going to put it back in the ground, and try all over. I lower it into the ground. But I lose control of it's descent, and it sinks into the earth, and Vanishes. So I try pulling it back up again. As I do, the top most branches appear. And they now look like, silvery metal tentacles. And they are whipping around all over. I am struggling with getting this thing out of the ground, when I wake up.

Night of 5/27/07 at the cabin.

The first thing I remember, is being at the top, of a tall chain link fence. It had barbed wire along the top of it. below me is a German Shepperd. It's very pissed at me for some reason. It's doing the whole bared teeth thing, and snarling. There is someone there, that decides to help me out. the DC, throws a steak or something, as far away from me as he can. The dog goes for it, and I decide to jump down. I have a gray sweatshirt on, and the sleeve is now caught on the barbed wire. I try to pull it loose, but its hooked pretty well, and I can't. Finally I just jump, and the weight of my fall tears it loose.

I Land on my feet and start to run. The dog looks up and comes after me. But I now have super human speed, and I leave the dog far behind. I am running so fast everything is a blur. suddenly I am approaching the edge of a cliff. The cliff is not real high, just one or two hundred feet. I am trying to decide what to do as I approach it. It does not even occur to me, that I could stop running. I guess, I am having a brave moment. I just jump without even slowing. Once in the air, I instantly realize I am dreaming. (Getting airborne, is a familiar dreamsign for me.)

I land on my feet, and I am so caught up in the joy of the moment, that I just keep on running. suddenly, I approach the edge of another cliff. I leap into the air, and I am screaming stuff like "wooo hoooo" and "yeee haaa." I land on my feet again, and keep running, and running. Cliffs keep appearing in front of me, and I keep jumping and screaming. I wake up after not to long of a time.:(

I normally don't have problems with dogs in my dreams. But I do get a lot of bears, and mountain lions.

When I first learned Lucid dreaming, and after I got really good at flying. I must have had nearly a dozen Lucid Dreams in a row. Where I did nothing but fly across dreamscapes at high speed. as fun as this was, it was starting to feel like all of my Lucid dreams were exactly the same.

This is how I discovered free falling.

A past Lucid Dream: Date unknown

I don't remember what point I became Lucid, or how I came to be in this spot. The first thing I remember, is being on the roof of this very tall skyscraper. I want to try something different, but I still have a strong desire to be airborne.

There is a short wall around the edge of the roof. I step up onto it, and look out across the most amazing cityscape. It is a little dark, and the city is lit up. (It is very beautiful) I look down, and I can see the lights of traffic far below. I turn around and inch backwards, so that the heels of my feet, are over the edge of the drop. I hold both arms out to my sides, and take a deep breath and relax. Then I gently tilt backwards, and let myself fall. The feeling of falling backwards, without looking down at the drop, is so real It's just awsome.

I let myself tumble, end over end, faster and faster. With the wind rushing over me. once I get close to the ground, I put both hands out in front of me, and land on my hands. I do a hand spring onto my feet, then I fly back to the top of the roof, and do it again. It was so much fun, that I kept doing this until I woke up.

Normally, When I become Lucid. I am so fascinated by the dream that I find myself in, that I never really try to change the scene. I just enjoy seeing whats around the next corner, or whatever. But one time, after becoming Lucid. I was feeling such a great sense of celebration, that I found myself on a beach, in the middle of a huge festival. Complete with music, and dancing, and food shops. After waking, I thought about it, and I realized that my feelings of celebration had created that whole scene. Because of this, I came up with this theory. That if a person could learn to understand, the thoughts and feelings behind the events that take place around them. they could learn to alter the dream, by generating the right thoughts and emotions, that go with what they want to create. This theory, Led to what was probably the most strange thing, that ever happened to me in a Lucid Dream.

A past Lucid Dream- Date: sometime in the late 90s

Hope I can describe this right.

I don't remember what was going on before I became Lucid. But I was in a stairwell of some building when I suddenly realized I was dreaming. It was kind of a boring place, just surrounded by walls and stairs. I was about to go looking for a way outside, but I then decided that I would try and see if I could make the outside world come to me. without closing my eyes, I visualized a mountain landscape. And I tried to generate the emotions I would feel if I was standing in that landscape at that moment. I take a deep breath, and completely relax. My arms at my sides, with the palms of my hands outwards. And with everything I had I tried to send the feeling of this mountain landscape rushing out of me as I exhaled. What happened next happened very fast and sudden.

The stairwell I was in suddenly spun around me in a blur and disappeared. And at the same time that it began to spin, I fell through the floor. It was more like I got sucked out of the bottom of the dream. And I was hurled completely out of control at high speed through a black nothingness. And for the first time ever, I was wondering if maybe I had done something I should not have. I was a little worried, but not really afraid. I was strangely curious about what would happen next. I only had a very brief moment, to wonder what was going on.

Because the next thing I know, a train suddenly appears below me. I literally fall into another dream scene! I land on my feet on top of a moving train. My very first thought is, oh good I'm still dreaming. I am a little relieved to be back on familiar territory. I look around, and I am now riding the train through the most beautiful mountain landscape you can imagine. the clouds in the sky are a strange greenish color. And they are rolling and swirling, just like when they show the sky of a dream in a movie. I had done it! I completely changed the dream without taking one step to find my way outside. A little stunned from what had just happened, I didn't really know what to do next. So I just started hopping train cars until I reached the front of the train. Then I just stood there enjoying this spectacular scenery that I had just created. And there are now small birds flying around me, so close I could reach out and touch them. After a short while of riding I wake up.

I have not tried this again since, but I plan to sometime.

The first Lucid, after a few of years of not practicing Lucid Dreaming.

2006 was a year of retraining myself to Lucid Dream. And this is the first one of the year.

Monday/February/13/2006

I was having a wild and crazy adventure dream, about being on some kind of prison world. I suddenly became Lucid for no particular reason. I took off  running across this landscape, faster than any human being ever could. I leaped off of a hill and flew straight into the sky. Far below me, I could see rolling green hills, stretching away to a far distant tree line. Once the land was far far below me, I completely relaxed my body, and leaned backwards into an end over end spinning free fall.( My favorite Lucid activity.) The feeling of joy I am experiencing at this moment is beyond words.

Before hitting the ground, I fly back into the sky. I have this staff in my hand, I think it is supposed to be some kind of weapon. I begin doing a dance in the sky, like nothing I have ever done in a Lucid Dream before. I start spinning the staff around me, like some kind of Martial arts expert. And the whole time I am spinning and diving and doing backwards somersaults through the sky. I can feel the wind flowing over me and through me. I am in a state of pure Ecstasy. I drop the staff and I think I had lost it. But I am able to fly far faster, than it can fall. I catch it easily.

I notice on a hill, there is a line of tall telephone poles, with power lines stringing between them. I dive for the power lines, and I use the staff to catch onto them. I have one hand on each end of the staff, and I am using it to slide down the power lines. When I get to each telephone pole, I swing out to the side and let go. Then I catch back on, on the other side. When I get to the end, I swing off and spin through the air. Then I soar into the sky once again. I notice that there are some people on the ground watching me. After a few more minutes of acrobatics in the air, and swooping around I wake up. And I am just stunned, because of the awsome time I had just had.

Thurs/Feb/15/2007 The Hills Have Eyes induced Lucid Dream

In the dream I am at the cabin. The cabin is very secluded. There is a long driveway leading back into the woods. And the cabin is on a large pond. I am inside the cabin alone. I see a strange person outside the window. I go outside to see what's going on. There is a whole family of suspicious looking people out there. They are not really doing anything. they are just hanging out around the cabin. There is one guy sitting on the front porch, carving something with a knife. I somehow know that these people are insane. And they are just waiting for the right moment to come after me, and kill me. At this moment in the dream, I am very afraid.

I begin to walk away real slow, so as not to provoke an attack. And I am hoping that they will not notice that I am leaving. I walk down the driveway, and onto the main road. I walk down the main road a little way, when a white rusty car comes along real slow. I realize that this is another member of the insane family. The car pulls over, and a big man gets out and starts coming towards me. The man is carrying a large axe. it is not a wood cutters axe, but a medievil battle axe, with a double blade. I think about trying to run, but I know that I will not be able to get away. And I am to terrified to run anyway. I try to back away, but the man is now standing right in front of me. I suddenly get a burst of adrenalin, born of pure terror. And instead of trying to run, I attack. I yank the axe out of his hands, and begin swinging it at him like a madman myself. But now the man has become a large statue, made of glass. and chunks of glass are breaking off, with my every swing. I am trying to smash him down into pieces, when I suddenly realize I am dreaming.

I lose all stress, and I drop the axe. I turn around, and look down the country road. the dream is no longer a nightmare. I completely forget about the situation I was just in, and I start walking down the road. I have no idea what I want to do, I just walk along looking at everything in amazement. there is a very peaceful country feeling. It is so quiet, and I can hear birds chirping. On the right hand side of the road is a rocky cliff, and the rock is an orange color. I look up into the sky, I can see a large bird soaring over head. the bird has a wide wingspan, it must be an eagle. I keep walking along the road, and on the left hand side, is one of those scenic over look spots. I watch as a station wagon pulls up, and the people get out to look around. I watch them in fascination. I am thinking about how they are not real people, but they seem so real. there is a man and a woman, and some kids. The man looks over at me as I walk by. I try spinning a couple of times. nothing interesting happens. I think about flying, but I don't. I just keep walking, and staring at everything in wonder. you would think, that this was my first Lucid Dream, the way I am just gawking at everything. But no matter how many Lucid Dreams I Have, I never get over how amazing it is. I walk and walk.

Eventually I come to this town. The town looks so strange. The buildings and roads are all formed together, in a way that looks like a work of art. I decide that it would be fun, to walk into somebody's house, and see what's going on inside. So I walk up to a door, open it, and walk in. There is a family living there. It must be morning, because the kids are getting ready for school. And the parents are getting ready for work. They don't even pay any attention to me. I walk around they're house watching in fascination as they go about they're routine, and just checking out the stuff they have. I wake up after a while.

I didn't really do anything in this Lucid Dream. But there was just something about the way it felt. that made it really magical, and a dream worth remembering. I guess you would have had to be there.

A past Lucid Friday/march/31/2006

There was a very large polar bear chasing me. At some point I became Lucid,  I'm not sure exactly when. I flew into the air to get away from it. this was a pretty long Lucid dream. But the whole time, the bear was after me. I was actually kind of playing with it. Every time I would land, the bear would be there coming for me. I would wait until the last moment, then do a back flip into the air to get away from it. this went on for quite a while. Eventually the bear transformed into a small child. I then landed and was talking to some people. Somebody asked me how I could fly around like that. I told them it was simple,all you have to do is realize you are dreaming. Then I woke up.

A Past Lucid

Monday/June/19/2006

Lucid #1 Well the first one was pretty short. I was climbing a hill, and when I get to the top, The hill becomes a cliff. It is to steep for me to get down. I slip and fall, then become Lucid right away. I just surrender to the fall, and I fall for a little while without fear, then I end up having a false awakening.

Lucid # 2 This one was better. I was in a mall, and I was with some people. I become Lucid for no reason. I say to somebody "hey check this out" Then I try to levitate to freak them out. But due to lack of lucid practice, my levitation skills are failing me. I do get into the air just a little bit, then fall back down. I give up, then just start doing all sorts of acrobatics. I am running around and doing handsprings all over the place. And doing somersaults and back flips off of and over everything. I am literally bouncing off the walls. I am running around doing this stuff until I wake up.

A past Lucid

Tuesday/June/13/2006/

I was at the cabin, and I was feeling a little down in the dumps because I was not getting to far with my Lucid Dreaming. I had been trying hard for the last couple of weeks. Then I took a nap, and had a fun full blown Lucid dream.

Before I became Lucid there was some stuff about watching some fish. Then I was driving some big tractor. Then I was flying through the air, and there was this plane spraying some stuff on crops. Then the next thing I know, I am walking along taking in the beauty of this very amazing mountain landscape. Then I suddenly become Lucid. This is one of those times when I became Lucid, just from the intense vivid beauty of the scene I am viewing. I am thinking about how strange it is, that I became Lucid now, but I didn't become Lucid while flying. I am very happy to be aware that I am dreaming again. I see some building. I run up to it, and leap and climb to the top of the roof. I can now see a whole sea of roof tops stretching out before me. I decide to run and jump from one roof to another. As I am jumping from roof to roof, the distance between them is getting farther and farther apart. The next one is really far, so I crouch and spring into the air with all my strength. As I leap through the air, I am wondering why I am using so much physical effort. When I know full well It is all mental volition. I land easily on the next roof, Then something on the ground catches my attention. There is a young child playing. I do not want to spend the whole dream jumping roofs, even as fun as it is. So I jump down to see what he is doing. Him and some other children are playing some strange game. I see A young girl playing, and I decide to try an experiment. I visualize light flowing out of me, and into her. A strange thing happens. As she absorbs the light, she begins to grow.  And as I watch she grows into an beautiful adult. Then she walks over to me and gives me a hug. Nothing sexual happens, but the next thing I know, I am in a different scene all together. I am sitting outside with some guy that I work with, And he says to me,"you are really dreaming hard aren't you." I tell him that it's because I am Lucid dreaming, and I am having so much fun, that I don't want to wake up. But as I tell him that, I do start to wake up. For a moment, I am in two places. I am still sitting there with the guy from work. But at the same time I can feel my body on the bed, and I can hear the birds outside the cabin. Then I end up fully waking up.

A past Lucid

Tuesday/July/4/2006/

I was running again. I felt like I was in such great shape, because I was not getting tired at all. Then I started sliding on my feet as if I was skiing. (this happens often) then I jumped into the air, spun completely around, landed and kept on going. Then I was sliding along side some building. there was a concrete stairway, leading up to a door. And it was in my way. I decided to just jump over it. I leap into the air, and I start to go higher than I should. Immediately I realize I am dreaming! Instead of landing I levitate myself higher. As I levitate past the roof of the building, I am looking down at it. And I am just amazed at the vivid details my mind can create. The building is made of concrete, and I can see every bump and crack in the cement. But then I wake up right away.:(

A past Lucid Thursday/July/27/2006 This was a pretty Long Lucid Dream.

I was working at my old job, as a cook in Colorado springs. The normal stuff was going on. As always, when I cook in my dreams nothing goes right for me. I can't even get one order done right. Have you ever tried to cook an egg in a dream? Well it just won't work! I have become Lucid many times, from trying to cook in dreams. Anyway, I was talking to a couple of the other cooks. when I suddenly stop and say,"wait a minute, I told myself that the next time I find myself working here, I would remember that I was dreaming!" Lucidity was slow in coming though. I almost told myself, "but this is real though." But this time I did not let myself give up that easy. I say,"could this really be a dream? I shouldn't be here. I don't remember moving back to Colorado." I look around, and everything is so real, that I am having a hard time believing that it is not. I still do not give up. I look over at this sauce pot, that is on a burner cooking something. I stare at it for a minute, and I just kind of reach out with my mind, and try to feel if this is a dream. But I can't really tell, because my dreams have a different feel to them now, than when I used to Lucid dream all the time. But slowly the realization comes to me. I am like "wow this really is a dream isn't it!" And when I say that, the full realization washes over me. And I am really just kind of stunned. And I casually start to walk off of the cooks line, and towards the door that leads to the dining room. I get near the exit, when I see a bunch of fried eggs in a pan. I want to see what this dream egg tastes like, so I pick one up and put it in my mouth. It tastes very good, the yolk is just slightly runny. I leave the kitchen and I walk through the servers area. I watch in fascination, as the people are rushing around working. I then walk slowly into the dining area. The place is packed with people. every table is full. I slowly walk through, and I look at all the people at every table. I am looking for the best looking girl in the place. But I can't seem to find anyone, that really catches my eye. I wander around, for quite a while, then I finally see a server that I like. She is very busy and rushing around. I ask her to come over here for a minute. And I take hold of her hand to keep her from rushing off. I look into her eyes, and I tell her she is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. Then I kiss her full on the lips. Then I let her go, because I don't want to waste this awesome Lucid Dream on sexual stuff. She is very surprised of course. I am not really sure what I want to do next. I try to think if there was something specific, I wanted to try in my next Lucid Dream. But I can't really think of anything. I decide, that I am going to leave the restaurant and go outside. I walk to the exit, and open the door. there is a small entryway that leads outside. As I pass through the entryway, I stop and take a moment to reflect. I am thinking, "wow I sure am having a full blown Lucid dream."  My thinking process, is perfectly normal, and I am fully aware that am standing here in a dream world.

I leave the entryway and step outside. I am on an average street, with houses along it. I start to walk down the street to find some adventure, when I hear some woman yelling. "HELP!" "HELP!" I think about just ignoring it,and going on my way. But even though I know it's just a dream. It does not feel quite right, to just walk away. I think what the heck, this will probably be as fun as anything else. I take a few running steps in the direction that the call for help is coming from. I then leap into the air, and begin flying over the rooftops of the near by houses. I look down, and I see somebody Looking up at me. They seem surprised to see somebody flying. I fly along for a while, then I see a stream that is rocky and fast moving. And it curves around a lot too. There is a woman beside the stream, calling for help. I see that she has a small boy with her, And he seems to be injured in some way. I don't know what is wrong with him, but I think that I can heal him anyway. I fly down to them and land. I visualize light flowing out of me and into the child. Then  just like in the other Lucid Dream where I did this, the boy begins to grow. But he is growing all out of proportion. his head gets really big, like its blowing up like a balloon. Then his arms do the same thing. Then he starts to get taller. It is almost cartoon like. But he eventually gets back to normal, and he is now completely healed. The woman is very thankful. I am talking to them, when I wake up. Note: I was very proud of myself for noticing this dreamsign. And not just shrugging the Idea off when I thought about it. normally I either become lucid right away, or I forget about it, and get caught up with the dream.

A Past Lucid Tues/August/8/2006 A leap of faith In this dream I am at the cabin. I am outside near the front of the property, and on the big hill near the highway. Instead of the hill sloping gradually down. I am standing at the top of a high rocky cliff, with a vertical drop. I am not sure how, or when I realized I was dreaming. But, as I look out over the edge of the cliff. I am about 90% aware that I am dreaming. I am thinking about jumping from the cliff, and trying to fly. But, as I look down at the rocks far below, I am afraid that I will fall. In waking life I have a bad fear of heights. But in Lucid Dreams, I never have any fear especially of heights. I love heights In Lucid Dreams. But right now I am afraid, so I am not fully Lucid. I say to myself "come on, you know it's a dream. even if you fall, you can, land on your feet with no harm." I only half believe it, and I am trying to convince myself. Then I do something I am very proud of. I take two steps and jump into open air! For a moment I have the sensation of pure terror. And I feel my stomach rise into my throat. Then, the full realization that I am dreaming, washes over me. I lose all fear, and I fly. I am Thinking wow another Lucid Dream. I fly around to where our driveway is, and I land. For some reason as I walk on the ground. I feel like I am losing lucidity. So I go back up to the high cliff and I jump again. Just to keep myself  Lucid. This time I jump with no fear. And as I fly back around I wake up.

A past Lucid Date: Unknown I just remembered this Lucid dream today. And I thought I would write it before I forget again.

I was being chased by the police for some unknown reason. I am running through a parking lot. I get into a car and there are keys in it. I turn the keys and the car starts. I start racing away, and there are a lot of cop cars after me. At some point here, I realize I am dreaming. I am driving the car on a road, that is along side a high cliff. I am thinking that, there should be no reason I can't fly the car, the same way I fly myself. I say to myself, " lets see them follow me here." I then swerve the car, and crash through the guard rail. I am easily able to keep the car levitated in the sky, and I fly away. Thats really all I remember about it.

Lucidity Returns Sunday night/ July/15/2007

It was a successful trip to the cabin. I survived using my new chain saw for the first time, With no missing body parts. I didn't get eaten by any bears. And I had two Lucid Dreams. One on each night. The second one is on the Lucid task page.

This one was pretty short, and I almost didn't remember it. The memory came back after a few minutes of being awake. I was in an outdoor setting, and I was talking to somebody. I don't remember the details of the conversation. But at some point while I was in the conversation I realized I was dreaming. I started to slowly levitate. it was in the middle of the conversation, and the guy was talking. It seemed kind of rude to fly away while he was talking. So I didn't go to high at first. But eventually I started to levitate higher, and higher. Until I had a really good view of the surrounding area. There were some buildings, that could have been houses. And there were a lot of trees. I remember the joy I was feeling, as I started to fly higher. But I must have woke up, because I don't remember anything else about it.

Last night a Lucid Dream! Tuesday/ July/31/2007  Lucid Dream # 29 of 2007

I was with a group of people, and we were in the clearing of some forest. The people were playing some kind of capture the flag type of game. I don't know what was going on with me, but I suddenly had some kind of crazy motion. The first thing I really remember is that I was moving at very high speed, and I was airborne. I was still below tree line, and I was swooping around the edges of the clearing. And I was watching as the people were playing there game. I start to go higher, and I leave the edge of the clearing. Right around this point I become fully Lucid! It was a smooth transition though. There was no real point were I stopped and said holy shit this is a dream! It just kind of became obvious, and I continued with the momentum of my flight. Past the edge of the clearing, I look down And I am amazed at the view below me. There are these trees that, are just amazing to look at. The view is just becoming more incredible by the moment. I am now flying over these monstrously tall trees. They are as tall as skyscraper buildings. they are the most beautiful trees I have ever seen. They don't look like any kind of normal trees. Their trunks are a kind of reddish brown color, and they have kind of a twisted look to them. And the leaves at the top are thick and dark green. The trees are actually all different sizes. So there is this amazing green canopy, That is like a rolling landscape in the sky. But there are places where it is open, where I can see to the ground through the redwood trunks. This is where things start to really get fun. I am getting more and more excited by the moment. I am swooping along the top of the canopy, so it feels almost like I am at ground level. But then the canopy gives way to open air, and  I dive over the edge. as I dive over the edge, I completely relax. And  let myself tumble into an end over end free fall, past the huge trunks of the trees. I am so excited, and I have so much adrenalin going, that I am just shouting for joy as I fall.  I fall, and fall, and fall. Then I get control of myself before I hit the ground. I shoot straight upwards into the sky like a rocket, until I am far above the tallest of the massive trees. Then I lean backwards into another end over end free fall, towards the top of the green canopy. I start swooping over the rolling canopy some more. And again, I dive over the edge of a rolling green hill and into open air. And let myself tumble out of control. This is like the ultimate roller coaster ride. I nearly crash into the top of one of the trees as I fall. But I am able to stop myself instantly, with the power of my mind. I hover there, completely still over the tree for a moment. And I am thinking about how amazing it is, that I have such good control. When I have been so out of practice. I am thinking about flying somebody else up here, to show them the beauty of the place. But then I suddenly wake up.

Last night two Lucid Dreams! And two other close calls

Lucid Dream# 30 of 2007 It started out being a dream about Dream Views. I don't remember much about the beginning of the dream. But eventually, I end up out in the parking lot of the school down the road from my house. I am not even sure why, but I start trying to fly. I am partially Lucid at this point, and I am floating just a little ways off the ground. I am kind of stuck there, and I can't get any higher. So I start trying to flap my arms to pull myself higher. It starts to work, but I am all out of control. I am rising awkwardly, and I am hanging half upside down. But as I rise above the roof of the near by building,I become fully Lucid! I no longer need to flap my arms, I can now levitate with control. The building no longer resembles the school. It has an-A- shaped roof. I decide to land on the roof, so I do. But it is covered with a thin layer of ice, and is very slippery. At first, the only way I can stay on it, is by using levitation to keep myself from slipping off. I see another building close by, and I easily jump across the gap onto it. Then I jump off of the building all together, and start levitating higher into the air. As my view of the area starts to expand, I really start to get that sense of absolute freedom, And my joy is complete! I now have the obstacle of power lines to deal with. I just grab onto them, and climb up them as if they were a ladder. And when I reach the top one, I balance on it like a tight wire walker. I look down at the scene below me. There is a house, and some people just pulled up in a car and are getting out and walking around. They are oblivious to my presence on the power line. I start levitating higher again but I wake up.

Dreamsign noticed Lucid Dream# 31 of 2007 I was cooking in a restaurant. I was trying to cook some eggs, but I could not. I burnt the hell out of them on my first two attempts. Then the yolks kept breaking on me, and I was starting to get pissed off about it. As I started carrying my burnt pans to the dish room, I start thinking that this always happens to me in dreams. Then I am like,oh my god, this is a dream! I look around, and I am aware that this is my second lucid of the night. I am very excited to be having another one. But I don't really remember anything else about it. I either woke up, or I forgot that I was dreaming. I almost decided not to count this one. But I decided that, the fact that I noticed a dreamsign, and then became fully Lucid. Is definitely worth acknowledging it as a success.

Comments In Exploring The World Of Lucid Dreaming, It mentions That many people report having the obstacle of power lines, while trying to fly. I am one of those people! It happens to me often. It used to be annoying, But most of the time now, I just play with them, when I come across them.

Last night a Lucid Dream! Best dreamsign noticed! Date: Monday/August/6/2007 Lucid Dream # 32 of 2007

I am walking down the side of a busy street, and I am near an intersection. There is some guy near by, and he reaches down to the ground and picks up a quarter. He asks me if I want it. I look at it and I notice that there is gum stuck all over it. I am grossed out and I say " I don't want that!" Then I notice that my light at the intersection is green. And if I want to get across, I had better hurry up. So I start to run! I am running so fast, that the cars are getting in my way. I am so amazed at how fast I can run. I think to myself ,"boy at this speed, I bet I could really jump far" So I leap into the air with everything I can muster. I really soar high, and...Instant Lucidity! I keep rocketing higher for a few moments. And I shout " Woo Hoo this is a dream!" I shout  it a couple of more times, just to keep myself fully Lucid. And, because I am so excited about it. The weather is now really bad. The sky is gray, and it's raining hard, and the wind is gusting pretty strongly. I slowly drift back down towards the ground. And I lightly perch on the metal rim of a square street sign. I am thinking about yesterdays Lucid, how I was balancing on the power lines. The wind is so strong, that I am having a hard time staying balanced. I'm wind milling my arms, and leaning forwards and backwards trying to stay on the sign. I am along side a highway, and there is heavy fast moving traffic rushing by. I leap off of the sign, And I land on the roof of a passing car. I land spider-man style, And I start crawling across the roof Like spider-man would. I then lean over the side of the car, and I make faces through the window, at the freaked out people inside. I then leap into the air again, and I land on the wind-shield of the vehicle behind us. (which is a van) I am blocking the drivers view, and he is swerving all over the place. I make some faces at him too. Then I crawl across the side of the van and leap through the air again, and land on the next car. I do this for some time, It's so fun! The combined sensation of the cars moving at speed. And me leaping through the air between them. The wind blowing, and the rain pouring down on me. It was great! But I think, I was scaring the heck out of those poor dream characters in their cars. But then I do something stupid! I make myself wake up. I have never done that before. I start expecting to wake up, So the dream starts to fade to black, and I think I am waking up. But I was really just starting to go into a false awakening. For a moment I thought I was awake, and laying on my bed with my eyes closed. But I realized that I was not really awake yet. And even though I new it was stupid I somehow forced myself to actually wake up for real. I think I just wanted to wake up and say " awsome another Lucid Dream!"

A Lucid Dream in my nap! Best dreamsign noticed Friday/August/10/2007 Lucid Dream # 33 of 2007

I always count my naps as part of my sleep from the night before.

It starts out that I'm driving my car, and I go over a tall arched bridge. When I reach the top of the arch, I get airborne. I don't get Lucid instantly, it takes a few moments. I am looking down and I am starting to get afraid, wondering how I will land. But the combination of fear, and being airborne makes me Lucid. I am no longer in my car, but sitting in a chair like from a ferris-wheel ride. I sit up on the back of the chair, and I fall backwards, and tumble to the ground. I fall fast, and I don't land on my feet. I hit the ground pretty hard and awkwardly. It doesn't hurt at all, I think it's kind of funny. I get up, and I am no longer outside. I am in  some building with corridors. I decide to spin once, and I get so dizzy that I stumble into a wall. And I marvel at the sensation. Now I am not sure what I want to do. there are corridors that lead to an area, that has some action going on. And there is a doorway leading outside. I am trying to decide which way will be more fun, and what I want to do with this dream. Then I think of the Lucid Task, but I have no idea how I am going to make a blue bridge appear. I think about how Moonbeam had a bridge over a lake, So I walk out the door, and it's very dark out. I am looking at how real the rocks on the ground look. And I can see the shapes of trees around me. Through the trees, I can see what looks like moon light reflecting off of a lake. I can also hear the sounds of crickets and frogs. I start walking in the direction of the lake. I keep saying "this is a dream" over and over to myself. Because it's so real, that I am having a hard time comprehending that it's not. And I don't want to forget that I am in a dream. The lake seems to far to walk, so I start levitating into the air to fly there faster. But, as I am flying into the air I start to wake  up.

Its amazing how the environment changes so fast and can be unstable! Cool dream, thanks for posting!

Yeah, it can change as quickly as your thoughts and emotions change.

Thanks for checking out my Lucid Dreams.

A past Lucid Best dreamsign noticed Wednesday/September/12/2006 Lucid Dream # 17 of 2006

I was having a dream about being at the cabin, when my alarm went off. I pushed the snooze button, and then re-entered the same dream.

There was a lot of snow on the ground. And I remember somebody saying something about winter coming early this year. I really didn't care at all. For some reason,  I started running around the cabin. As I ran around the cabin, I was making lots of tracks in the snow. I was wearing some really large snow boots.

I'm not sure what exactly happened,  I think I must have jumped. Because I suddenly find myself airborne. I instantly realized that I was dreaming! I was so excited! In my last couple of  Lucids, I forgot that I was dreaming. So I had a task set for this one to keep me Lucid. I started to shout "this is a dream!" as loud as I could. I was fascinated by the sound of my voice, echoing across the landscape. I am looking down, and I am flying over a residential city type area. There are a lot of houses. "This is a dream!" I shout again, at the top of my lungs. As I shout, the energy of my excitement explodes out of me, like a force of power. the force is so strong, that it propels me high into the sky. And when the energy force hits the city far below me, I am surprised to see rolling waves flowing through the land. just like the effects of a rock, dropped into a large puddle of water. I slowly drift closer to the ground. I can now see, lots of power-lines around me. I decide to just play with them. I grab onto the nearest power-line with both hands, and start swinging around it,  like someone on those parallel bars in a gym. Then I let go, and I flip end over end through the air. Then I  float over a large tree, and my feet rustle the leaves, as they brush through them. I am in a state of child like wonder. I decide to land, and I start walking. It is still very wintery, and I notice, that I am wearing A thick winter jacket. I realize, that I don't have to wear a jacket in a dream, so I take it off. Then, a man and a woman, come out of a near by building. They are looking for someone, and they ask me if I have seen them. They seem to be worried, that this person may be lost in the cold, and in danger of freezing. " It really doesn't matter," I say. " do you want to know why? It's because this is a dream world!" The man gives me a disgusted look, and just shakes his head. I think about trying to prove it to them. But, I then decide that I really don't care if they believe me. I see this old fashioned style park bench. It has a tan stain colored wood, and the front edge of the seat curls downward. And there is a dark metal trim along the sides. On the spur of the moment, I jump up onto the seat. Then, I  kick off backwards, from the top of the back rest. And do a back flip. I land on my feet perfectly. and as soon as my feet touch the ground, my alarm clock goes off again.

This Lucid took place in the ten minutes of snooze time. who ever said hitting snooze is a bad thing? I had the feeling, that this would have been one of those really long Lucids, if my alarm hadn't woken me out of it.

Last night a Lucid Dream! Sunday/August/19/2007 Lucid Dream # 34 of 2007

I am in a military helicopter. I have to jump, because the helicopter is going to crash soon.( I'm not sure why) I'm looking around for a parachute, but all I  can find is this large umbrella. I then decide, that it doesn't matter if I fall, because this is a dream. I have kind of a low level of Lucidity. I still get caught up in the dream events. I jump out of the helicopter with the umbrella, and I am able to catch air currents to pull me higher into the air. I can see another helicopter, and there is somebody looking out and waving to me. I am trying to use the air currents to pull me up towards this new helicopter. But then, I watch as the other person jumps out of that helicopter with a parachute. he gradually drifts down, and lands. I then let goof my umbrella and let my self fall. I try to keep the other persons position marked in my mind, so that I can find him. I land on the ground easy. And I start to walk to where I think the other guy is, when I wake up.

A past Lucid Monday/January/8/2007 Lucid Dream # 3 of 2007

I am in an apartment building, and I'm being chased up the stairs by a mob of zombies. I make it to the next floor, and enter an apartment. I close the door, and struggle with the lock. But I do get it to lock, after a few moments of messing with it. I cross the room and push open the window. it's a long way down, but I crawl out anyway. I am easily able to climb down the side of the building. Strangely though, I'm still inside of an even larger building. That the apartment building itself was inside of. I seem to have effectively escaped the zombies, There are none to be seen now. There is a room nearby, with a glass wall, and a sliding glass door. I slide the door open, and walk inside. I see a short flight of stairs, that's leading down to a corridor. I follow the stairs down, and start walking along the hall. Then, for no apparent reason, the realization that I'm dreaming washes over me. I am like" Oh wow this is a dream! I did it!"  Everything is so perfectly real and vivid. I immediately stop and turn around. All I want to do now, is find my way outside and go flying. I remember passing a doorway that lead outside. So I walk back the way I came, and go back up the stairs. The floor is cement, and I can even hear my footsteps echoing as I walk. when I get to the spot that the door was, things have changed and there is now no door. "Oh great!" I am not really very surprised though. I'm not sure I will be able to find my way out now, but I think that I can. I get the feeling that I am under ground, and I need to go up and out. I am thinking, that I should try and alter the dream from where I am, instead of trying to find my way out. But I am just starting to get my Lucid legs back, and I don't think I have that kind of skill yet. I keep following corridors upwards. And I eventually come to a locked door. I reach out with  my mind, and unlock the door and push it open.(no hands needed!) After walking through a few more corridors, and up a few more stairways, I find a way outside. I have to walk up one last flight of stairs. From my angle below, all I can see is the sky. I've been trying to hurry, because I don't know how much time I have left. As I start ascending the last stairway, I see this very beautiful girl come walking down the stairs. I am like WOW! look at her!:drool: " Hey come here a minute," I say. She seems afraid of me. "All I want is a hug," I tell her. She walks over to me and puts her arms around me. She is shorter Than me, and I just look down into her eyes, and admire how beautiful she is. That lasts about ten seconds before I wake up.

I woke up happy about the dream, but frustrated that I didn't get to go flying. I should have left the girl alone!:? .

A Lucid Dream!:woohoo: Sat/August/25/2007 Lucid Dream # 35 of 2007

It wasn't a real long one, but it was pretty intense While I was in it. and a strange new experience.

A continuation, of my super climbing abilities. I'm outside my house, and I'm in the front. I'm getting the lawn mower going, and I push it around to the back. (That's where most of the lawn is.)  beyond the yard, are some woods. and at the edge of the woods is a thick tree line, that I can't see through. I don't remember why, but I think  there are some wild animals in the woods. I want to see them but I can't, because the tree line is to thick to see through. I now remember about my climbing ability. I jump into the air, and grab onto some very thin branches of a near by tree. the branches bend with my weight, But it doesn't matter. I'm still able to easily pull myself up through them. As I climb, the tree changes. I'm now climbing up a tall birch-looking tree. It's dead, and partially rotting. there are no leaves, and the branches are thick broken stumps. With great skill, and speed, I climb to the top. And I'm even thinking about how cool it is, to have this super-climbing ability. Once I reach the top there is a small gap in my memory. I'm not sure what happened exactly, but the dream scene has completely changed and I am now Fully Lucid! At least I 'm fully aware that I am dreaming. Instead of being on top of a tree.I 'm standing on the top of a very tall post, like a telephone pole. And I'm looking across a scene of rotting destruction. It's like a forest that has been destroyed by fire, but everything that hasn't been fully consumed by flames, is chard and rotting. Including the post that I'm standing on. The image and feeling of it, is very intense. There are rows, and rows of post's like the one that I'm standing on. This is where things get strange. I Have a complete memory of being here in another Lucid Dream before. And I'm very excited about the fact, that I have  returned to the same place. As if it was a real place I could return to. I can remember how the last time I was here, I was jumping across the tops of the posts.( Remember these posts are very tall) I'm high in the air. The posts are pretty far apart, and I'm wondering if I can make the jump. But, then I remember it doesn't matter Because I'm dreaming, and I can use levitation. So I crouch and leap, towards the next post. As I jump, the pressure that I put on the post I was on, makes it crumble and fall to the ground. they are so rotten, they are barely strong enough to hold my weight. The post is to far, but, I 'm able to use mental power to guide me. And I land gently on the post. I'm thinking about how I wanted to stay aware, and pay attention to what it feels like being in the dream. So that I can get Lucid easier next time I'm in one. I jump across to another post, and as I land, I can see my watch sitting there on the top of it. I laugh and think, No way, there's my watch! right where I had left it last time I was here. And I have a perfect memory of leaving it there. (Strange! I don't really have a memory of doing any such thing. Or ever even being in this dream before! I guess it could have been one that I never recalled) I pick up my watch and put it on. Then I wake up. And I have my watch! I was wondering where that went to! Ha ha, Just kidding.

I bought my watch specifically for Lucid Dreaming purposes. That's the first time it turned up in a dream. Not exactly the way I had intended though. these dreams took place in the first hour and a half of sleeping. But,I didn't have much recall for the next couple hours that I slept. Or from my nap either.

Grizzly Bear induced Lucid Dream! Wednesday/August/29/2007 Lucid Dream # 36 of 2007

I can't remember everything that happened before becoming Lucid. I was with a grizzly bear, and I was wearing a bear suite! I don't remember why I was wearing the Bear suite, but there was a specific reason for it. And I was actually friends with the grizzly. I needed to go somewhere with the grizzly. And we needed to walk through the woods to get there. Since I was wearing the suite I started playing around pretending that I was a bear. I started growling, and I charged at the real grizzly pretending like I was going to attack. But then the grizzly got pissed, and thought I was a real bear. And it began to charge me! And did it ever look mean when it came at me. But it was a bluff charge also, and it stopped short of attacking me. It stood there staring at me, head hanging low and teeth bared like a dog. I pulled off the head piece of my suite, and said "look it's OK it's just me."  The bear was still growling, and angry looking. I walked up to it, and started petting the top of it's head. the bear seemed to calm down, and I say " come on lets go." I turn my back on it and start to walk away. I suddenly feel something slam into me from behind, and I'm sent flying into the air! I realize the bear had just head butted me in the ass, like a goat would or something. And a moment after thinking that, since I'm now airborne I become Lucid!

I'm now pretty high in the air, and I shout "this is a dream!" I shout it once more.(it feels really good to shout this is a dream, in a dream) I decide I want to check out the details of stuff. Off in the distance, I can see this  wall type structure. And even from where I am now I'm amazed at how real it looks. I start to fly in that direction, and I'm thrilled to see that the grizzly bear is following me. It's running across the ground at speed, directly below me. And I notice that I'm still wearing a bear suite, and I'm struck by the hilarious absurdity of the situation! Head butted into Lucidity by a bear, and flying in a bear suite! I get close to the wall structure, and I drift down and land.  I'm so amazed at the detail of this thing, and how my mind could be creating it. The wall is kind of in the shape of a horse shoe. the lower half of it is made by these really amazing looking rocks. Their held together by some kind of mortar or something. the top half is made by an orange colored wood. And there is an awning hanging over the side of it, on the inside of the horse shoe. I get the feeling that this is an area for having picnics. I can see a play ground area a little ways away, for kids. I decide to fly again, and as I start to levitate I also think about waking up. and I do end up waking up pretty quick after thinking about it.

Comments I wish I would have paid more attention to the bear instead of the wall. I didn't remember, that I wanted to try talking to a bear next time I got Lucid near one. That would have been so fun to play with a grizzly in a Lucid!

Attack of the super villain A Lucid Dream! Best dreamsign noticed Sunday/September/2/2007 Lucid Dream # 37 of 2007

The first thing I remember, is being in the parking lot of some store or something. There are a lot of people outside the building and I'm talking with a couple of them. Then I decide to leave. The ground is icy, and slippery. I begin to skate away on my feet as if I had skates on, only I'm wearing shoes.(happens fairly often in my dreams.)  I skate out of the parking lot, and down a side street. There are mounds of snow along the side of the street. I'm skating pretty fast now, and I start veering to the side of the road and jumping the mounds of snow. The mounds of snow start getting bigger, and I have to jump higher with each one I come to. Eventually I catch enough air, and I get Lucid!

"This is a dream!"  I shout, And I begin flying higher. There are many trees around me, and I'm flying up through the branches. The many branches around me are almost tunnel-like, and they create the effect of making me feel like I'm moving very fast. I eventually fly up and out of the last of the branches. Off in the distance, I can see this tall crane-like tower. There is some kind of cable-car hanging off of it. I realize that I'm looking at some kind of ride at a theme park.( It's also night but not to dark to see.) The park is shut down, and I'm thinking it may be fun to go sit on top of the cable car and check out the view from there. But then, suddenly, I notice the form of a dark figure climbing the crane like-tower. And due to the speed and agility in which he is climbing, I realize that he also has super-human abilities. I'm not sure why, but I know he is up to no good. I decide, that I will fly up there and confront him. As I begin to fly higher, I now have the obstacle of power-lines! I fly through the first layer, and there is another layer beyond that. And beyond that... another layer. Then I begin thinking about Moonbeams power-line dream. And as soon as I think about that, the power-lines begin to thicken around me! Defiantly, I proclaim that is not going to happen! And immediately the power-lines begin to thin out. I am now able to get through them. But I'm still having trouble getting beyond them. I am so anxious to reach my destination, that I forget to just slow down and play on the power-lines to make them go away. I look towards the crane structure, and I can see the super-villain on top of it. He is crouched down, and there are many cables around him as well. He is yanking out the cables to the ride. electrical sparks are showering over the sides. I realize he is trying to sabotage the ride, so that the next people to ride on it will fall to their deaths. Now, Conveniently, I no longer have to make it to him, because he is coming for me. I watch as he leaps through the air, and lands on the roof of a near by building. I fly over and land on the roof to meet him. He is wearing this awsome looking yellow and black ninja style suite. And his face looks almost like one of  those old style hockey masks. but only in the way it is shaped, because it looks way cooler than that. the face mask is black and yellow as well, and very detailed. where the mouth should be are metal slits. As I land on the roof, he turns towards me. His arm jerks forward, and I see something silver streaking towards me." Oh crap knives!" But, then I remember it doesn't matter, and I charge forward straight into the knives. I have no idea if any of the knives hit me or not. If they did they had no effect and I didn't feel them at all. I completely ignored them, I didn't care. I reach the villain, and I attack with some imaginary martial arts moves, that I'm making up as I go along. Different kinds of throws and round house kicks and what not. I'm basically kicking his butt pretty good. He's not getting any hits on me. But I'm not really causing him any harm either. Just knocking him around pretty good. As I'm fighting, I'm thinking that I had better be careful not to get to caught up in the action, and forget that I'm dreaming. We battle on the roof for a while before I finally wake up.

Comments Thats the first time I ever felt the need to fight anyone in a Lucid Dream. Normally I will just let them attack me and laugh at their futile attempts to cause me harm. or, I will just reach out with my mind and send them floating away.  But I decided to have fun going along with the whole super-hero action thing. I've watched to many of those kind of movies Lately I guess. Super hero movies always motivate me to get Lucid. It's great watching a movie like that, and to know I actually get to do that kind of stuff. By day, I'm just an ordinary guy. By night I'm something else entirely. LOL!. How old am I again? I guess I'll never grow up.

A Lucid Dream! Tues/September/4/2007 Lucid Dream # 38 of 2007

I have no idea what point I became Lucid in this dream.

I'm already fully Lucid in my first memory of this dream. I'm flying above a military helicopter. I'm just above the whirling blades, and flying superman style. I decide to do a big loop in the air, and the helicopter follows me as I do. It's kind of strange, it's like I'm controlling the helicopter. It moves with me when I fly. I do a couple of  loops, when suddenly, a group of enemy helicopters come baring down on me from behind. I'm not sure how many there are but there's a few of them. They come at me spraying a shower of bullets. I actually find this kind of funny, I'm not afraid of them at all. I turn around so that I'm flying backwards and facing my attackers. I'm flying on my back now,  and I point my finger at them like it's a gun with my thumb sticking up. I pretend like I'm firing back at them. It's just kind of a silly display to show them how little I fear them. After a few moments, I start to get annoyed with all the commotion of the helicopters around me. And since my imaginary finger gun isn't really doing anything. I shout, "All helicopters destroyed!" And I punctuate the word destroyed, with a forceful wave of my hand. To my delight, every helicopter instantly vanishes. and I'm now in the sky alone. I was so excited that I was able to make them disappear like that. I'm not used to having that form of dream control. And I had never tried using commands before. Now I just fly, for what seems Like a very long time. My memory here isn't very clear. But I remember that I was flying for so long that I decided that I should do something other than just fly. So I land. I don't remember much about the area where I landed. My next clear memory is that I'm in a shopping center Like a mall or something. And I'm just walking along Looking at everything in fascination. I love stores in Lucid Dreams, There is always so many amazing things to see. I'm walking along a corridor of the mall, and I come to an area where there are lockers along the wall. And there is a bunch of very nice looking girls in front of the lockers. Their doing who knows what, getting their stuff out of their lockers or whatever. I'm just standing there checking them out, when the dream environment reforms itself around me. And I'm now standing in the middle of a womens locker room! now there are all sorts of girls walking around, in various states of undress. Some fully clothed, some topless, some just coming out of the showers with towels around them. And some completely nude. And every one of them is as perfect as a dream.(OK, now how can a guy be expected to resist this kind of temptation!) I move towards one of the  girls, But then I hesitate thinking that I'm probably about to throw the dream away. So instead of trying to have sex with any of them, I just do a little bit of exploring with my hands. The girls are friendly and don't mind. Except for the exception of one, who gets pissed off and tries to slap me. I duck and move away real quick, and go back to some of the more friendly girls. After a while of playing around in this way, and marveling at how real they all are. I ask, if they are wondering how I can be in their locker room with out getting into trouble. they seem kind of confused, and no one has an explanation for it. "Maybe it's because, this is all a dream!"  I say. And I start laughing. The girls laugh too, because they think it's a funny idea. I exit the locker room, and I find myself back in some store of the mall. There are people around shopping. And again loudly, I say, " Maybe this is all a dream!" And the people around me start to laugh. And I start laughing so hard, that I must have been laughing in my sleep. Because the joke is going right over their heads. And I'm the only one who knows, that it really is a dream. For some reason I find this to be funny as hell. Then I say, "Man, I've never had so much fun in my entire life!" I start to think about what I might want to do next, when I wake up.

A Lucid Dream Tuesday/March/18/2008 Lucid Dream # 18 of 2008 Not sure what to call this one WILD/DILD combo

I woke up from my nap to pee, after about two hours. I was awake now, but decided to see if I could WILD a little, before getting up.

I WILD into some action scene, I'm Lucid, but not completely. I'm having a sword fight. with some people that are supposed to be royalty in some olden times setting. I'm not quite sure exactly what's going on. There are a lot of people rushing around, and I'm fighting for my life. this lasts for a little bit. Then, I think because of my expectations.The dream fades and I wake up. I lay there in bed thinking about this newest little WILD, when I do a random reality check. And I can breath!:boogie: I'm like no way, it cant be! I pinch my nose and I can still breath. Knowing I must be dreaming, I'm still having a hard time comprehending it, because everything is so perfectly real. Excited, I pull the covers back and get up out of bed. I can see dog laying there sleeping. I walk over to the light-switch to see if it works. The first time I flip it, the light does not come on. But I flip it again, and the light comes on. OK it didn't work the first time, thats a sure dreamsign. I pinch my nose again, and I can still breath.

I walk over to another light-switch, and the same thing happens. It works on the second try. I walk upstairs and my sister is there, Sitting on the couch watching TV. I decide To do another reality check. I get up on the couch and do a perfect back flip and land on my feet. I know I can't do that in real life. I still want to do another reality check though. I jump into the air, and catch myself with my mind, before I fall. I hover there in mid air, completely sure I'm dreaming now.

I tell my sister it's a dream. I stand right over her with my nose pinched, so she can clearly see it's pinched. And start breathing in and out really hard. And tell her to look I can breath through a pinched nose. She gets pissed off and tells me to get away from her, accusing me of blowing boogers on her lol. Then I abruptly wake up.

I'm pretty excited about this one. The most successful wild I ever had.

Two Lucid Dreams Monday/March/24/2008 Lucid Dream # 19 of 2008 Reality check induced Lucidity This is my 100th countable and recorded Lucid Dream since retraining.

This dream started out as a false awakening I think. The first thing I remember is being in the bathroom of a childhood home, when I do a random reality check. I pinch my nose and I can breath. Instantly Lucid, I walk out into the living room and turn the light on. The light comes on, on the first try. And I think about what Sara said last time I was turning on lights in my dream.

I then decide I'm going to do the basic task of the month.(Forgetting that I decided to quite doing Tasks.)  I step outside and it's night again." I think, great not again!" I don't see any cars to get hit by at all. I start walking in the direction of a highway I know is near by. For some odd reason I start hitting my arms together crosswise, and it feels so real that I think I'm hitting my real arms together. And that it's going to wake me up. With that thought, the dream fades into a false awakening.

I wake up in the same childhood home as before, where I had just started from. I do another random reality check, and I can still breath. But this time I'm confused and I don't believe it. I walk back outside. I'm in the same spot as before. and I begin walking towards the same highway as before.  I've done reality checks a couple more times by this time and I can still breath, but am ignoring it because I still don't believe it. I'm with a friend now. I'm not sure where he came from. I think, there is a little bit I forgot about. We are walking across the parking lot of a restaurant, that is there in real life. And I start doing more reality checks. (Pinching my nose.)

I say to my friend," That's odd, my nose keeps trying to tell me I'm dreaming." I think about how it normally feels when I pinch my nose when I'm awake, and no air gets through at all. I now start to suspect, that I may actually be dreaming still. Along the outside wall of the restaurant, are lights set at intervals. I say to my friend," hold on, I'm going over by the light where I can see better." I walk over to where the light is. And as I do, I look around and think about how odd it will be if this really is a dream. everything looks and feels exactly like real life to me.

Once I get to the light, I hold up my hand to it and begin trying to push my finger through the palm of my hand. At first nothing happens, so I push really hard. My finger begins sinking into my hand! "Holy crap, it is a dream!" I get excited and begin climbing the wall. I climb it easy, and get up on the roof. I see a couple of people walking below. I decide I want to freak them out by jumping from the roof.(It's a decent height.) I yell down to them, but they ignore me at first. After a bit I get their attention. I run across the roof and leap into the air. I start to glide gradually down. But just for fun, I decide to relax and let myself fall like a rock. I fall and hit the ground hard.

I then get up and walk in the direction of the highway, trying to hurry. I wonder if the cars will try and stop instead of running me over.(even though that's never happened before.) My friend keeps getting in my way, making it hard to get to the road. I push him out of the way, and just about to jump into traffic when I wake up for real.

Lucid Dream  # 20 of 2008 Same night as above Reality check induced Lucidity The end of tasking

I'm with a bunch of friends in a house. One of them is an old friend of mine. A bunch of stuff was going on that I don't remember all that well. I  don't remember why, but I bring up Lucid Dreaming to my old friend. He seems interested, and I tell him he can learn to do it. I demonstrate how to do a reality check, and I can breath. I'm like WTF, It can't be. I take my finger, and push it into the palm of my hand. And it sinks in.

Lucid, I push my finger into my hand as far as I can, then turn my hand over and look at the other side. My finger is pushed completely through. I say to my friend "Look that's so cool!  I pushed my finger completely through my hand! I hold it up and wiggle my finger a little bit. he believes that it's a dream.

I then remember that I want to freak some of the other people in the room out. I say to one guy,"Look what I can do." I run up the side of the wall and kick off, doing a back flip through the air, and landing on my feet.

The guy looks really confused, and says "What the hell!" I then levitate up to the ceiling and begin crawling across it upside down. I crawl across the ceiling to where my friend is sitting, doing some paper work below. I hang upside down and say, "Dude, you can do anything you could ever want to do right now, Why would you want to sit there and do paper work!" he says, "I have to get this done and faxed to such and such a place."

I laugh and say, " it doesn't matter, your wasting your time. you can't bring anything back to the waking world with you anyway! Lets go outside and go flying or something. He says, "oh yeah, thanks for reminding me." He gets up, and I float down from the ceiling. We both walk outside, and it's raining and cold. I remember I don't need to feel cold if I don't want. And walk right into the rain.

The front yard slopes down a hill to the road. Across the road is some houses, and beyond that, I can see a lake shrouded in mist. On the road, at the bottom of the hill there is a car parked. I see a huge boulder nearby, pick it up an throw it off the hill. The boulder crushes in the roof of the car. I laugh and say," oops somebody is going to be pissed!"

I tell my friend that I'm going to go flying over the lake. I leap off the hill, and fly over the road and between the houses on the other side. I go sliding across somebody's balcony. there is a table with dishes, and other stuff on it. I knock them all off the balcony. I fly along between the buildings. And there are no walls on the sides of them now, so that I can see all sorts of people inside. And some nice looking girls.

At this point I think of the Lucid task again. I remember that I'm done with tasking, and decide not to waste my time trying to do some task. A sense of freedom washes over me, that I have not felt in my Lucids for a long time. And I fly out towards the lake. I try to get higher, but my dreaming skills have gotten rusty because of to much time wasted on tasks!

I struggle to get higher. I see some junk floating through the air. I use TK on it, and send it floating away. But just barely. I then try using TK on myself, and it works at first, I start to lift myself higher. But I lose control and begin to sink again. I decide I don't really want to fly out over the lake if I can't even fly well. So I land, and go walking up between the buildings.

There are tons of people and rooms on either side of me. It's kind of a strange scene, hard to describe. There are some very nice looking girls, and I'm walking along checking them out. Not feeling shy about staring at all. I look all I want. I decide I'm going to play with the girls a little bit. I walk by examining all of their arses. And when ever I see one I like, I use both hands, to reach out and give both cheeks a nice squeeze. then move on to the next one.

People are all looking at me like I've gone mad. I play around with them for some time, when I see my friend come walking along. He goes into one of the rooms and is talking to some of the people there. I follow him in, and I assume he has told them that I know I'm dreaming. I jump into the air, and am able to levitate to the ceiling. I crawl across the ceiling again. I look down at the people staring at me and ask, "Are you afraid? Do you know who I am?" And I begin laughing like a maniac and say," I'm Freddy Krueger!"

I jerk out my hand with fingers spread, trying to will blades to grow out of the ends of my finger tips. Blades slowly begin to grow out of them, but I lose control  and they slide back in and disappear. I see a guy wearing a brown hat, and striped sweater. I leap down to him, and say, "give me those cloths, There is only one Freddy Krueger in this dream, and thats me!" I grab his hat and pull of his sweater and put them on myself. I begin laughing like a crazy man again, until I wake up.

Comments

This was the longest Lucid I had in a long time. And I know the reason for it was because of not stressing out over whether I'm going to have enough time to complete some task. I was able to just relax and enjoy it. The first order of business is going to be to re-hone my TK and flying skills. I was pretty annoyed that I had trouble with doing that. It's normally so easy for me.

Two Lucid Dreams Sunday/March/30/2008 Lucid Dream # 21 of 2008 Tornado dreamsign recognized Reality check induced Lucidity

I'm having one of those weird bathroom dreams. I leave the bathroom and walk to the buildings exit, intending to go home. I step outside, and it's cloudy. I begin hearing storm sirens.(Just like in my last tornado dream.) I look around, and I can see the tornado off in the distance. It's tearing through the city, and I can see smoke from random fires throughout the destruction. The tornado is sweeping back and forth, and heading my way. I think about trying to make it home, But it's now to close and I don't think I can make it.

I go back inside, there are many people there, that are aware of the tornado. The tornado has swept across the landscape and is somehow coming at us from the opposite direction from where I first saw it. I don't feel to safe in this building, I don't think it will hold up to a direct hit. I go and look out the back window, and I can see the tornado not more than about fifty feet away. and coming right at us. It looks like a black wall. I go into the other room, and I think that this is like a tornado dream, and I should do a reality check. It feels kind of strange as I reach up to pinch my  nose. Because I don't think it's a dream at all this time, and I'm seconds from being hit by a tornado for real. But I take the time to do a reality check anyway.  And I can breath!:boogie:

I want to double make sure, so I push my finger into the palm of my hand really hard. It starts to sink in, and this time I turn my hand over and watch as my finger pokes through the top of my hand. It's pretty cool, the skin on the top of my hand begins to rise, and my finger pops through it.  I push it all the way through as far as I can. I show my hand to a near by woman. I wiggle the finger sticking through, and all the fingers on the other hand as well. She looks surprised, and I pull my finger out of my hand.

I tell the crowd to watch out the window, because I'm going to go jump into the tornado. I walk out the front  door, and around the back. To my surprise, the tornado has now transformed into this girl I work with, and She is wearing a black dress. She is the tornado personified. I'm clear minded enough to think about this in the dream, and it makes sense to me. I can see her as being a tornado. She is a forceful person, and quite full of wind as well. And has really gotten on my nerves over the last two weeks.

She starts to walk away, and  I shout " Hey tornado! Get over here! I'm going to kick your ass!"  She stops, and I walk over to her. I jump right into her, like I was planning to jump into the original tornado.  At first I phase right through here, because she is nothing but wind. (just like in real life.)

I then grab her around the waist with one arm, and take off flying with her. Intending to get her away from the building, to save the people inside. As I do, I'm wondering if they can see her as the girl, or if they still see her as a tornado. I imagine that if they see her as the tornado still, I must look like superman taking the tornado away from them.

I fly up with her, high above the buildings and the nearest trees. I here the girl gasp in surprise, and I realize that it's because of the amazing view spreading out before us. I say, "yeah I know, isn't that awesome? Thats' why I love Lucid dreaming so much."

I now remember that I wanted to practice my TK. And I remember my last lucid where it failed me, and I had trouble flying. As soon as think about that, I get a really weird tingly sensation in my stomach, and I begin to sink back to the ground. I wake up before sinking all the way back down.

Comments Thanks to reality checking, I'm two for two on the tornado dreamsign. Time to start renting tornado shows!

Lucid Dream # 22 of 2008 Same night as the above Lucid

I go back to sleep, and I'm having a dream where I'm in school, and in a Lucid Dreaming class. I Think, that there were a lot of DV members there. I don't remember a lot about the beginning. The topic comes up about a universal hand signal to use if your in public, and you think you see somebody doing a reality check. The hand signal, is to check if the other person is into LDing. (There is a real thread on that here at DV)

Somebody asks me what my opinion about what the signal should be. I explain that we should already use the signal that was decided on in the DV thread. And I point my finger into the palm of my hand.

Not sure why, but while demonstrating this signal, I decide to push my finger into my hand. My finger pushes through, and I watch as the skin on the back of my hand bulges outward, and my finger pops through. Just like in the last dream. I show it to some guy sitting next to me, and say "hey, that looks just like when I do that in a dream!" I pull my finger out and push it in again. Then pull it out, and reach up to pinch my nose. And I can breath!:boogie:

I'm sitting there for a moment breathing through a pinched nose. But I can only breath through the left nostril. I realize that the right one is probably plugged up in real life, so thats why it's only working through the left side. After a few moments of sitting there, I'm like,"well since this is a dream, I should get up and do something."

So I stand up from my chair, and try to do a hand stand. But gravity feels so realistic, that I can't do it any better than real life. I start to doubt if it really is a dream, so I push my finger through my hand again. "Yup, I'm dreaming." I walk out of the school, and the only thing on my mind at the moment is sex.

Outside, there is a group of people walking into the school. There are plenty of females so I start looking to pick one out. But now, every one I look at is way to young. And I think that maybe I've jinxed myself into only seeing children.

But after a bit more searching, I find someone suitable. I walk up to her and put one arm around her waist, then lift and carry her off to the side of the group, to have the longest and most enjoyable Lucid sex dream I ever had. Without waking up!

Censored

After we are finished, I listen to this conversation that two DC's are having. They are talking about some kind of business deal they are involved in. I think it's kind of funny that they are being so serious about business stuff, when it's just a dream. Then, Lo and behold. Here comes Mark, Walking out of the building! He has dark hair, and sharp facial features. I say to Mark."You know this is a dream don't you!"  I see some other near by girl give me a funny look. She then looks at Mark and shakes her head, silently mouthing the words. "This isn't a dream."  To me, it looks like Mark is taking her word for it instead of mine. I say " Mark,do a reality check! You will see!" He still looks like he doesn't believe me. So I push my finger through my hand again and show him. And I say, "pinch your nose and see if you can breath!" He pinches his nose, but doesn't say any thing. So I ask," well... can you breath!"  "Yeah, I can breath mate." he replies.

But he doesn't seem to interested lol. and he just walks away going about his business. I watch him go and I wake up.

I'm going to post this one here beacuse it's worth keeping track of.

Almost had my first Lucid of the month in my nap today. But I woke up before I was completely convinced. Talk about a realistic feeling dream!

Reality checking at the mall It starts out I'm in the mountains. I'm driving my car up a trail. but my car is a convertible now. I'm driving along, thinking how cool it would be to see a mountain lion. Then my car doesn't want to work right. I give it gas but it wont go. It's like the transmission is out or something. I no longer think it would be cool for a mountain lion to come along.

My car becomes a bike. I see some girls with horses coming up the trail behind me. There  is a trail that branches off from the one I'm on. And this one goes down the mountain. I take that trail. I start coasting down it it quite fast. I hear a sound behind me. I look back and see another guy on a bike. I try to go faster so he doesn't catch me, but the trail gets really muddy and curvy. It's a little bit scary going that fast because I think I'm going to slide into the trees.

The guy eventually passes me. Once at the bottom of the hill I check out his bike. He has this professional racing mountain bike. And I think, no wonder he was able to handle it so well down that trail.

From here there is a mall near by. I walk up to the mall and enter. It's a typical mall. Shops all along the halls. I don't remember why, it may have been just random. But I pinch my nose and I can breath!:boogie: Confused, I'm like no way this can't be a dream. I pinch my nose harder, and I can still breath." Oh my god, could this really be a dream?" I try to push my finger through my hand, but it feels exactly like real life and I stop.( In the past, I just kept pushing really hard until it went through. this time I gave up to soon) I'm about 85% sure that I'm dreaming. But I need to be absolutely sure.

I pinch my nose again,and I can still breath. I think about the last time I didn't want to believe my nose. And I think to myself, " well... my nose is trying to tell me I'm dreaming!" I look around and it just seems to damn real, for me to be completely sure.

I decide to try a hand stand. I remember how it failed last time, so I try harder this time. I'm able to do a hand stand, and I walk along upside down on my hands. People are pointing and laughing. I'm still not sure though, because this feels to real as well. I'm barely able to balance on my hands. And I feel very heavy. I'm barely  able to hold myself up.  Every second I'm on my hands, My muscles hurt more and more from the effort. And I have to set myself back down.

One thing experience has taught me though, is to not give up in this situation. Because most likely I am dreaming. I jump on an escalator going down. I notice I'm bare foot, and I'm a little bit worried about getting my skin pinched, in the escalator.

Once at the next level down, I see this really nice looking lady in a business dress. I'm like, "Oh man I want her! If I was only absolutely sure I was dreaming right now...." I watch as she walks away. I look around and see quite a few other girls I would like to make an advance on. I'm just checking them all out, and trying to think of another way I could prove I'm dreaming, when I wake up.

Comments So, I was sort of Lucid. But couldn't find absolute proof it was a dream. And didn't want to risk doing something stupid, without being perfectly sure. I almost feel like counting this as half a lucid I think if I would have had more time, I would have found my proof.

I had a couple of other short dreams last night. I'm not sure if I'll have the time to come back and post them though.

Two Lucid Dreams Thursday/April/3/2008 Lucid Dream # 23 of 2008 Dreamsign unknown

I'm already Lucid at my first memory of this dream. I have no idea how I became Lucid.

I'm In a room of a house or something similar. I remember that I wanted to practice my Tk, so I start reaching out with my mind and levitating random household appliances. I have a few things floating around the room.

I focus on one object. ( for the life of me, I can't remember what it was now.) But, I try to levitate it up to a high ceiling. Though I'm having an easy time making things float around the room. Once I try to push this object high into the air, I start having trouble. It's like there is a force preventing me from pushing it past a certain point.

I sit there struggling for a moment, and I realize that I'm just trying to hard to force it. So I relax, and let things smoothly flow. This works, and I'm now easily able to send the object speeding up to the ceiling.  And I make it stick there.

Next, I have this whole pile of junk I levitate into the air in front of me. There are quite a few people in the room with me. I'm showing off, and I wave an arm over the pile of stuff, and then underneath it. Like I'm performing a magic act and showing them that there are no wires.

I then see this little boy. I reach out with my mind and begin levitating him off the floor. At the same time, I am able to use TK to control him. I make him take steps, so it looks as if he is walking up an invisible staircase.  After a few moments of making him walk through the air, I wake up.

Lucid Dream # 24 of 2008 in my nap Best dreamsign noticed Short but sweet

I'm outside walking. It's winter and I wait a moment to cross an intersection. I cross, and once on the other side, I notice the ground is coated with ice. I begin skating on my feet really fast. I see this snow bank, and decide to use it as a jump. I  hit it and soar high into the air. Instantly Lucid as I get airborne, I fly quite high then tuck into a ball and do back flips all the way back to the ground. I land on my feet and continue skating very fast, until I come to another snow bank. I decide to hit this one like a jump as well. I hit it and begin soaring into the air again, as I wake Up.

Then I nearly had a third Lucid as I fell right back to sleep fully Lucid, in this bar with a stage. But I was only there for a second before waking up again.

Two Lucid Dreams Monday/April/7/2008 Lucid Dream # 25 of 2008 Best dreamsign recognized No reality check needed

I'm on a paved trail at the park. I'm moving fast on my feet as if skating. I'm not sure If I have roller-blades on or not. I'm going down a hill when I come to a pile of cut branches and logs. I'm not sure if I hit the pile or try to jump over it, but either way I end up soaring into the air. Instantly I'm Lucid.

I continue to fly higher, and as I do the surrounding landscape comes more fully into view. And I'm totally thrilled. The entire area is surrounded by tall steep rolling hills, covered in grass. Colored many different shades of greens and browns. It's the most amazing sight. There are a few people on the ground  below, Of whom I believe to be forum members. One of which I'm thinking is Moonbeam. I yell down to them that this is a dream, And Moonbeam looks up and waves happily.

I now fly even higher, and Another amazing sight is revealed.  Hidden between some hills is a lake with crystal clear water. There is a tree growing up from the center of the lake. And a circular wooden deck has been built around the trunk of the tree. The water is so clear that I can see to the bottom of the lake.  I can see building's on the bottom, that look like houses. I remember that I want to do some underwater  exploring, and I decide that I really want to dive into this lake and explore what looks like some underwater village. I make my way in that direction but I don't make it before waking up.

Lucid Dream # 26 of 2008 Monday/April/7/2008 Best dreamsign recognized No reality check needed

I'm on another trail and it's dark. I begin running down a dirt path, down a steep little cliff that branches off from the main trail I'm on. It gets steeper as I go, and I'm off balance and worried about running into trees. I'm not quite sure what happened, but I'm suddenly airborne again, and instantly Lucid. It's no longer dark and I fly out over an ocean of blue water. On the shore, at the bottom of the little cliff I was just running down, Is a small group of  friends of mine. I yell to them,"this is a dream!" Strangely, they all begin clapping. It's as if they already know it's a dream, and are congratulating me on my realization of it.

On a whim, I land on the surface of the water and begin to walk across it. It's a flat calm ocean. I feel like I'm beginning to sink, so I will the ocean to become solid as if freezing up. I can't even describe how I do it, but it's the strangest feeling. Like the ocean is a part of me, and I can actually feel it, as I make the water slowly solidify into a hard solid, not quite like ice. The entire ocean has become so hard now, that I stomp on it, and it feels as solid as rock beneath my feet.

Thrilled that I was able to do that, I walk off onto shore and begin climbing the side of some building. I'm climbing and climbing, for what seems like forever. And I realize I've trapped myself into just climbing a never ending wall. because I'm just looking at the wall focusing on climbing.

So I look up, and just above is the top of the building. There is an overhang though. I grab onto the edge of the overhang, and swing out and hook my foot over the edge of it. So that I'm kind of hanging upside down. I can hear surprised comments from people below. I can see the ocean from this view, and I remember I want to go exploring underwater. And I have the opportunity to explore the ocean! I notice that it's still frozen solid though. But I figure since I made it solid, I can return it to a liquid state.

I let go of the overhang, and let myself fall to the ground. I hit the ground hard and lay there pretending to be hurt or dead. Somebody comes running over to help, and I jump up and say. " I'm OK, there isn't anything that can harm me."

I make my way over to the still solid ocean, and get on my hands and knees. I begin crawling across it. And again, I don't really know how to explain how I do it. But I force the ocean to become liquid. First one hand splashes into the water, then the entire ocean becomes liquid again, and I am submerged into it.

The water is warm, and I can hardly believe how good it feels flowing over my body. It feels so good, that I want to take my cloths off and swim through it naked. I plan to do so, but I begin swimming farther out first. My foot touches the bottom, and I feel something. I lift my foot up out of the water, and there is this clam like shell fish clamped onto my big toe. I pry it off, and pull it open. There is a meaty tongue inside. And resting on the tongue is a silver pearl. I'm surprised and happy that I found a pearl. I remove it, and am examining my treasure when I wake up.

A Lucid Dream Wednesday/April/9/2008 Lucid Dream # 27of 2008 Strange thought induced Lucidity No reality check needed

I'm in some kind of transport vehicle as a prisoner. I've been captured along with a few others, to be put to work as a slave. There are vampires involved somehow. I don't remember much about the beginning of the dream. But I remember seeing a vampire It's dark, and there is enough room to stand in the vehicle. I'm standing against one of the walls, can't remember if I was chained or not. The is a large black scary looking spider crawling on the wall near me. I brush at it to knock it away.

Before long we make it to our destination. It's some kind of outdoor complex with some buildings, where they are bringing all the slaves to be held. There is a line of  new slaves being checked in. And the group from the vehicle I'm in are being  herded in that direction. I remember see this huge mutant looking creature. Like something from "The Hills Have Eyes." the whole dream has kind of a fantasy feel to  it.

My recall of this part is a little sketchy, but I walk by some cave opening and there is a walking skeleton inside. the skeleton rushes at me and attacks, clawing at my face. I'm able to over power it, and I destroy the thing. Breaking it into pieces, until it's nothing but a pile of  lifeless bones. Now, the cave looks more like a huge pole barn, with a wide open door. Not sure why, but I have the feeling there are going to be zombies soon.

I walk into the pole barn like place. And the strangest thought randomly comes into my mind. I think to myself," I hope I get Lucid in this dream." I shake my head confused by the total contradiction of that thought. "What the hell did I just say?" And I repeat it to myself. "I hope I get Lucid in this dream!" Then I'm like whoa! This is a dream! And I let Lucidity fully wash over me.

I look around, and I see this red three wheeler off to the side. And I look at it the detail of the thing in wonder. I look down at the ground, and I see small rocks and dirt scattered around on the floor. It feels just so damn real, but I'm completely sure it's a dream. I walk back outside, and the sky is tinged a strange reddish yellow color. Almost like a sunset, but not like any sunset I've ever seen. It has a kind of eire feel to it.

I remember that before I became Lucid, I thought there was going to be zombies. So I say to myself, " I'm going to go find me some zombies!" I turn right out of the pole barn, and begin walking. I have no idea where I got it from, but I now have a hand gun in my hand. It must have manifested itself in my hand, with the idea of going after zombies. ( I just realized this is like Pancaka's drawing of me, Strange.)

I think, "cool I'm going to try this gun." I squeeze the trigger, and it fires with a satisfyingly powerful kick, and smoke comes from the barrel. OK, Now I want to try shooting something. I see a parked yellow car, and I fire the gun at it. the bullet hits the car and ricochets back at me, hitting me in the chest. It doesn't really hurt, but I'm surprised, and yell "ouch" anyway. I try it three more times, and I only end up shooting myself three more times. (I guess I'm a slow learner.):roll:

As I'm playing with the gun, a group of DC's has gathered around me. Not threatening, they just know I'm onto something and want in on what ever it is I'm up to. There is maybe about six of them. Some male, some female.  I hand the useless gun to one of them, and continue on my walk. The DC's curiously  follow.

We walk for a long time, and I have a lot of interaction with them during the walk. I start by telling them it's a dream, and doing a nose RC, and trying to get them to do one too. I can tell they just think I'm being silly. I say watch this, and I jump and dive into the air superman style. I let myself fall until I'm about a foot above the ground. Then Using TK, I stop myself and hover there on my stomach, arms and legs stretched out. It was a very Matrix feeling moment.

Then I get up, and I hear one of the female DC's ask, "You mean like last time you thought it was dream, and you tried to do a hand stand but couldn't?" A little annoyed by that comment, I decide to show her that I can do a hand stand. So I do. I have perfect balance, and I walk upside down on my hands for a while, then set myself down.

I see this little silver sports car parked along side a road. I run at it and jump up onto it, doing a hand spring off the roof, then tucking into a ball, to continue a flip and landing on my feet on the ground. I can't remember everything else that was talked about. But I had a brief discussion with one of the ladies about the sexual freedom I have within the privacy of my own mind. Though I didn't try anything with her.

eventually, we come to this apartment building, And I enter it, With my DC friends  still loyally following. I walk up a stairway and start opening doors along the hall. At first, every door I open is a bathroom. And I comment to one of my DC friends about how strange I think that is. I eventually open A door that's an actual apartment.

There is a bed in the middle of the room, and I can see the shape of a body beneath the covers. I decide I'm going to mess with the person. Hoping it will be a nice looking scantily clad woman, I pull the covers off. To my dismay, it's a pot bellied man with a scraggly beard. He sits up surprised, and very pissed off. I see this remote for a TV or DVD player. I Think of the movie "Click" where the guy can control the world with a remote control. And I get this great idea.

I can tell the man in the bed is about to attack me. I pick up the remote, and point it at him and push a button. At the same time I say "stand up." He stands up, and I know I have him under my control. I push it again and say, "spin" The man gets this really angry expression on his face. But he is powerless to resist and he begins spinning  where he stands. I then push it again and command him to jump. he begins jumping up and down on the bed.

My DC friends that were not impressed with my previous tricks. Are pretty surprised at this one. Done with amusing myself, I drop the remote and walk back out into the hall. I Open another door, and it's another apartment that looks the same. But there is some teenage boy sleeping there. he wakes up angry, but I ignore him. I hear one of My DC friends ask me to check something out. I look and one of them is going through a closet. I go over there, and there are a bunch of really nice T-shirts and sweat shirts with really cool artwork on them, hanging from hangers. I grab a bunch of them, realizing that I wont be able to keep them. But I decide I don't care and walk out of the room with my new shirts. and I wake up.

Last night was a little frustrating. Bad recall the entire night. But I kept getting fragments of some really strange dreams. But after repeated short WBTB's and focusing on getting Lucid. I was finally rewarded with this short one.

A short Lucid Dream Monday/April/14/2008 Lucid Dream # 28 of 2008 Best dreamsign recognized No reality check needed.

I find myself on this wide open plain covered in green grass. A ways ahead of me is this hill that I can't see beyond. I'm compelled to climb this hill  to view the landscape beyond. I have a strong feeling that there is a very beautiful scene beyond the hill. I make my way there and begin to climb. As I climb, I begin to see more hills. The grass covering the hills are in the same beautiful shades of greens and browns as my previous Lucid. I'm amazed and think."These are the same colors as in the Lucid dream I had."

Once I make it to the top, the hill I'm on has changed. I'm now on a tall steep mountain of  sand. I get the urge to jump over the side and ski down it. I nearly jump without looking, but decide I should look over the edge first. I do so, and it's very steep, and a long ways to the bottom. I believe I can handle it, so off I go. I jump off, land on my feet and begin my fast descent. I sink into the sand nearly up to my waist, and it feels just as if I'm skiing down a mountain cover in fresh white powder. I eventually make it to the bottom. I come out of the sand, and sand pours off me onto the ground. Thrilled, I want to do it again, but I'm going to do it better this time.

I run around back to the side of the hill I climbed up to begin with. And I'm now still facing a steep sandy mountain, rather than the grass hill it was before. I start running up the face of the hill as fast as I can. Once I reach the top I leap into the air intending to completely miss the flat area on the top side of the hill, and land on the down slope on the opposite side.

But I catch so my air that I even miss the down slope, and go flying off over the hilly landscape. And Lucidity washes over me. I shout "Woohoo! This is a dream!" Totally thrilled I fly higher for a short time, then lean backwards into an end over end free fall. I make a few rotations and abruptly wake up.:(

It was short lived, but I nice way to end a long frustrating night of nothing but fragments.

A  Lucid Dream Sunday/April/20/2008 Lucid Dream # 29 of 2008 Anxiety induced Lucidity No reality check needed This is the last part of a longer dream.

I find myself in the dark corridors of a sewer system, filled with murky disgusting water. I'm in the water swimming through it, trying to find my way out. I'm in a hurry because the water level is rising, and if I don't get out in time, I will drown. My head is above the water, and getting closer to the ceiling of the corridor with the rising water. I suddenly think " what am I so afraid of? This is a dream!"

Lucid now, it feels as if I knew I was dreaming the whole time. But it just now fully sank in. I realize I have the ability to breath water. I'm a little grossed out at first because it's sewer water. But I try to forget about it, knowing it's really just dream water. I lower myself into it more, so that my mouth and nose are fully submerged. I open my mouth wide, and I can feel the water flow in. I then inhale deeply and I can breath the water fine! It's a very strange feeling. I then let myself sink completely under, and begin swimming along fascinated by the strange feeling of breathing water. It gets really dark. For a moment I can hardly see, but I don't worry about it and just enjoy the feeling of swimming and breathing.

After a little while, I'm able to see fine again. And I find myself in a hallway, no longer even underwater. There are doors along the hall, and everything is still really gloomy and creepy. I somehow know there are zombies about, and I will be running into some. I enter a room and I can see a humanoid shape on the other side of the room. I can't see it very well, because of the darkness. But I think it's a zombie. without warning it charges at me lightning fast. Lucidity faltering a little, but not enough to be afraid. I pull my arm back ready to punch it in the face when it gets close enough.

Just before it gets to me, it stops in it's tracks. And I can see that it's not a zombie after all, but an old man. The old man tells me I should wait here, and he walks past me and out into the hall. I wake up before I can do anything else.

A Lucid Dream Friday/April/25/2008 Lucid Dream # 30 of 2008 Lucidity trigger unknown I woke up to my alarm clock with no recall. But after a moment of digging, a Lucid Dream came flooding back to me.

The first thing I remember is walking very quickly through an endless labyrinth of corridors and rooms. Even though I don't remember anything before this moment, in the dream I'm aware that I have been Lucid for a very long time. I'm thinking about how amazing it is that I have been Lucid for so long. And the dream is so stable, that it feels as if I could stay here forever.  But, since I'm now thinking about waking up, I begin to feel myself starting to wake up. But I'm able to keep myself in the dream by shifting my mental focus in a way I don't know how to describe. The dream stabilizes and I continue on.

I'm going from room to room just wanting to see whats beyond each corner. And looking for something interesting to come up. But then, I decide I want to be outside. And with that thought I am able to find a way out. Once outside I'm on a residential street. there are houses all along the street, and I now get the idea that I want to go into one and mess with some DC's. Or find someone nice looking to play with.

I  pick a house and run towards a window. I jump into the air and hit the window feet first. I pass through the window and into the house. I must have just phased through it. I don't remember that part very clearly. Once inside, I find myself in the same endless labyrinth of corridors and rooms. No DC's to be found. I start thinking about the beautiful scenery that can be found in dreams sometimes. And think about looking for one of these kinds of scenic dreamscapes.

Not sure why, but I decide to do an RC. I pinch my nose, and start to wonder if I'm really dreaming. Because I can hardly breath through it. I try again, and I can definitely breath through my pinched nose, so I know I'm still dreaming. But I can barely breath through it. Then, I abruptly wake up.

I remember I woke up here, but I don't remember actually being awake. if that makes any sense. I didn't even make a note in my journal of having a Lucid Dream. Which I most certainly would have done. So I think maybe I had an FA. but I don't remember that part either.

Nearly had three Lucids last night. But Just happy with the one I got though.

A missed opportunity I let my dog outside. I go looking to bring her back in the house but I can't find her anywhere. I'm looking all around the house calling her, and I'm afraid she got out of the yard somehow. At some point as I'm looking for her I do a random nose RC, and I can breath. But i don't believe it. Even though I do it a couple times I shrug it off. I actually think that the possibility of this being a dream is so slim, That i find humor in the idea.

I look in the window of my three season porch, and see that somehow my dog got back inside with out me noticing.

I wake up pissed off at myself for missing the chance to get Lucid. Use the bathroom and go back to sleep.

A Lucid Dream Wednesday/April/ 30/2008 Lucid Dream # 31 of 2008 Reality check induced Lucidity

I'm having this dream about being on a space station. There are problems and we are trapped there. It's like some space adventure movie. There are others with me, and I see that they are doing some kind of drugs. It's something Psychedelic. They offer some to me and I decide to take it.

Tripping now, the things I see, there are no words to describe. The way people begin to morph and change, and all sorts of random scenes flashing by my awareness. All I can say is WHOA! You would have had  to see it to believe it.

After a little bit of this crazy tripping stuff, I decide to do a reality check. Not sure if it was completely random or not. But I can breath through my nose. Again I don't believe it, but I remember the last dream I had, and this time remember to try pushing my finger through my hand. I start pushing my finger into my palm. It doesn't want to go through, but I really want this to be a dream, so I keep pushing as hard as I can.

after a lot of pushing, my finger begins sinking in. Now knowing for sure I'm dreaming, happiness washes over me. and I keep pushing my finger all the way through. All the strange hallucinations are gone now, and everything is normal. No longer in a space station either, now just in a house. There is a girl in the room near me, and I show her my finger sticking through my hand, and tell her this is a dream. She believes me right away.

I walk down stairs, and I see my step brother. I tell him this is a dream. he tries to push his finger through his hand but cannot. He shrugs his shoulders and walks away. I say"Look." And I do it again. I have a lot of problems again, takes forever but my finger goes through, and pushes the skin on the back of my hand up in a really strange way before going completely through.

I see that the girl has come downstairs. She is still Lucid as well. I tell her I'm going to get naked and go outside freaking people out. And I ask her if she wants to join me. She thinks that sounds like fun, and agrees to come with. I notice that all I'm wearing are pajamas. And I get out of them pretty easily. The girls takes her clothes off too, and we step outside.

We are in the front yard of the townhouses that I grew up in as a kid. There is a wooden wall, don't know what it's for, to block sound maybe.(It was there in real life.) I jump up on the wall and balance across it. A and do a flip off the top of it. I start doing flips off the sides of walls and trees. Then I decide to practice my TK a little bit. I use TK to levitate myself into the air, and up above a tall tree. I come to rest on one of the top most branches.

The girl follows me up, and I put my arm around her and we just enjoy the view. There are people below shooting off fireworks, and even though it's daylight I can see the brilliant display of colors. there is another tree nearby, the leaves are beautiful orange color, and I can see a glow shimmering around them, as if the tree has an aura.

The thin branches of the tree we are on begin to sway with our weight, and we begin to swing back and forth really far. For a moment, I'm afraid the branches will break, but I decide that they wont. Things change on me, and the tree breaks free from the ground, and becomes one tall pole with no branches. like a telephone pole, maybe even taller.

And I now use this pole, to pole vault across the land, with the girl still hanging onto it too. It's so fun, I stick one end in the ground, and swing up high into the air. Then come down in an arch. the distance I travel with one vault is very far. And I keep repeating it. I get a momentum going so fast It's incredible. I think to myself that this has got to be the best way to travel through a dream ever.

Eventually I come to this tall building, and I let myself slam into it. I stick to the wall spider-man style, and let the tree/pole drop to the ground. On the wall near me, is a rack with a sword on it. The blade has a slight curve to it like a samurai sword. Only it's a lot cooler. I reach over and lift it off the rack, then push off the wall doing back flips until I hit the ground on my feet. I begin swinging the sword around, playing like I'm some sword master, until I wake up.

Pole vaulting part two I'm climbing on some tree, when it looks as if someone had cut through the tree with a chainsaw near the bottom. It's a smooth cut, and the tree slides off the stump. I remember how I was just pole vaulting this way, and begin doing it again.! Just flying across the land again. Even though I have a clear memory of the last dream I don't quite get Lucid this time. Should have, oh well.

A Lucid Dream Friday/May/2/2008 Lucid Dream # 32 of 2008 Random reality Check induced Lucidity

I'm in my car on the street outside my house. just getting ready to pull into the driveway when I  randomly pinch my nose, and I can Breath!:boogie:Lucid, I Stop the car and  get out.  It's night and I can see lights on in the windows of the houses along the street. I get curious about whats going on inside those dream houses, so I become a peeping tom and walk p to the windows and look in. I see people inside but nothing really interesting. I walk from house to house looking in the windows. after three or four houses, I forget that I'm dreaming and start to worry about getting into trouble.

Don't really remember anything else about that one. Later in the night, I did another random reality check and became Lucid. But all I can remember about that one, is doing the reality check and being surprised I could breath. And I didn't count that as one of the seven dreams I recalled last night.

A Lucid Dream Sunday/May/4/2008 Lucid Dream # 33 of 2008 Dreamsign noticed No reality check needed

I'm in a work setting and I notice I'm dreaming because of something I'm not going to mention. But then I think I lose lucidity for a minute. Then the dream shifts and I'm back in a scene from an earlier dream with a low level of Lucidity. The scene was of being on the edge of the ocean. With crazy tidal waves and surfing going on. But things are pretty calm now.

Behind me is a huge wall, with a stairway leading up behind the wall to the top of it. And in front of me is the ocean. The water level is rising coming up to the wall and getting higher. I feel like my subconscious mind has complete control of his dream and wants me to face a fear of falling. Like it's a seperate being from myself. I feel like it wants me to dive off the wall into the water. (actually I was sure of it.) I somehow knew  that's why the water was rising, to push me up the stairway to the top of the wall.

I climb the stairs, and am hoping the water level will be deep enough. Once to the top of the wall I look down. The drop now is so far. And also, The scene has changed. My subconscious wants to make it harder for me. There is only a small square of water off to the side. It's going to be very hard to hit it. I'm very scared at this point but I'm still planning to jump.

Suddenly I think, "wait a second... I'm Lucid!" I shouldn't be scared at all. But at the moment I still am, and I'm shifting nervously from foot to foot. I'm thinking to myself that I can't believe I'm so scared and I know I'm dreaming. I start thinking back to all the nightmare scary situations I've jumped head first into with absolutely  no fear at all in Lucid Dreams.

Slowly the comprehension that I'm not really jumping off anything sinks in. And I think about how I'm still laying in bed. And there is nothing to fear. Now I'm ready to jump. I look down at the small square of water, that's at an odd angle to hit. And I think. "Well, if I'm supposed to be facing a fear here I'm going to do it right."

I make my dive. I leap off the wall, but I no longer care about hitting the water. I've decided to aim for solid ground. At first I have my hands out in front of me like a diver. But i then decide to make it even better. I put my hands  to my sides so that I will hit the ground head on.

But without even trying to do it, my descent begins to slow, so that I'm falling in slow motion. When I finally hit the ground head first, it's pretty gently, and I just tuck into roll and sit up. But for some odd reason I now have the idea that my dog has been left outside and I need to wake up and get her. I stand up and instantly wake up. And dog is not outside.

A Lucid Dream Tuesday/may/6/2008 Lucid Dream # 34 of 2008 Spontaneous Lucidity?

I'm running fast down I paved trail though the woods. I feel like a can break the running speed record. I think that what I need is a big hill to run down to really build up momentum. I come out of the trees, and on my right is a wide open field with a huge grassy hill in the middle of it.

I must be aware I'm dreaming a little bit here without really noticing. Because I think about how it's cool that I was able to summon the hill when I came out of the trees. Kind of like how I've read about people trying to create what they want on the other side of a door before opening it.

I head for the hill, when full Lucidity washes over me. Exhilarated, I pick up speed running faster and faster. Shouting for joy,"This is a dream!" I shout it about three times before I come to the hill. I was planning to run down the hill. But now, with full Lucidity my game plan has changed. I'm moving so fast, that it takes only a matter of seconds for me to run the length of it.(Which is considerable.) Once to the top I leap off it, and begin to soar into the air watching the ground drop away below me. I only have a brief moment to enjoy the amazing feeling. Because I wake up.:(

A Lucid Dream Monday/May/14/2008 Lucid Dream # 35 of 2008 Lucidity trigger not sure

I had a few good opportunities that I missed while at the cabin.  And some really fun dreams in general. But I had this Lucid..

I don't remember the first part that well.  I have a strange disembodied perspective, and I'm flying around this tall building. There is somebody standing on top of the building getting ready to jump. And I'm shouting "Jump" over and over. And I'm thinking that I would jump no problem.

The next thing I know, I have my body and I'm jumping from the building Lucid. I let myself fall end over end. But my perspective shifts so that I'm watching myself fall. And I'm thinking how cool that looks.

Near the bottom of the building is the ocean. And This part I remember very well. I'm suddenly flying inches above the surface of the water. Just flying along fascinated by how the water looks. It's very blue, with rippling waves.

After a little bit of flying along, I remember how I froze the ocean in a Lucid before. I decide I want to try it again. To see if I can do it twice, or if last time was just a fluke. I reach out one hand and touch the water. At the same time I force the water   to freeze. It works, the water around my hand becomes solid. And the frozen water spreads out in every directing from the point where my hand made contact. Until the entire ocean is solid. It happened so fast, that it only took a couple seconds.

I step onto the solid water and begin walking across it. I wake up shortly after I begin walking.

I only slept a couple of hours last night, and didn't remember anything until my alarm went off. I pushed snooze and then had this Lucid.

A Lucid Dream Friday/May/16/2008 Lucid Dream # 36 of 2008 Recurring dream noticed Reality check induced Lucidity

I'm back at my old cooking job in Colorado springs. It starts out that one of my co-workers needs some help cooking, So I jump in and give him a hand. But he disappears, and it's just me now.

I'm actually not doing to bad for dream cooking. I'm having a difficult time of it, but at least I'm getting  stuff done. I'm having a hard time remembering how to make stuff. because it's been ten years since I cooked here. There are two omelets  that I'm preparing. One is supposed to be a veggie omelet. The other a ranchero omelet.

I roll them in seperate pans, but they kind of fall apart. I figure I'll just put enough cheese on them so no one will notice. I forget which one is which, and I finally decide that they are similar enough that I will just put the ranchero sauce on one of them, and call it a ranchero omelet.

At this point B the waitress says, "I'm still waiting on that side of three." (she means a side of three small pancakes.) I'm thinking oh crap, because I don't remember putting the pancakes down. But I look down at my grill and see two rows of three pancakes. They are starting to get a little over cooked. I pick up my spatula and flip the pancakes onto a side plate, and put them in the window.

When I look out the window and see B standing there, I get a sudden deja-vu. I remember dreaming this exact moment  a couple weeks ago, with B there. I decide I want to tell her about how I dreamed this before, and now it's happening. I say " hey B I need to tell you something." She says " hold on I'll be right back."

Once she walks away, I decide I should do a reality check, Just to make sure I'm not just dreaming this again. I pinch my nose, and I can breath!

Lucid, I hold my nose closed for a moment longer. Yup I can definitely breath through my nose. (I was pretty surprised. I have not gotten Lucid that way for a while.) I think," yeah that makes sense. I never moved back to Colorado. I'm planning a trip to the cabin in Minnesota!"  I  forget about trying to cook, and walk off the cooks line. I walk through the kitchen and say,"hey look!" I have my nose pinched and I'm taking deep breaths to show everyone.

I'm still carrying an omelet in a pan, and I think about eating it. But I then just toss it,  pan and all,  right over my shoulder. I don't even look to see where it lands. I walk around through the back of the kitchen, and into the prep area.

At this point B the waitress returns and asks me what I wanted to tell her. I begin explaining the whole thing to her. But I don't finish before my alarm clock goes off again.

I push snooze again, hoping to re-enter the dream. It almost works too. I enter the same work place and I'm walking through the dining room when I do a random reality check. I become Lucid for a split second before waking up.

[/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE]

Lucid Dream stolen I'm so pissed, this would have been my 37th Lucid in my nap today. And I was focusing so hard to induce it.

There is more to it but I'm just going to start here. I'm in an apartment and there are windows covering an entire wall. Outside it's raining, and the wind is blowing the curtains around because a couple of the windows are open. And there is rain water blowing in and getting things wet.

I don't seem to care to much about the water, but I push the curtains aside to get a better view. There is this beautiful mansion across the way. It's made of red brick, and has white trim and round white pillars on the front. There are wolf status in strategic places, as if they were gargoyles. I'm struck by the beauty and detail of the place, and just want to sit there enjoying the view, and watching the rain.

the lights are on, and in an upper level window I see a gray wolf staring out. I think it's so cool that there are status of wolves all over, and wolves inside too.

I don't remember why. It may have just been random, but I do a reality check. I pinch my nose and I can breath! There is no resistance at all, it's like my nose isn't even there. I'm not sure I believe it at first. I try it a couple more times, then I decide to try and push my finger through my hand to confirm it. And erase all doubt.

Just as I'm trying to push my finger into my hand, through the window I see this girl I used to know, walking up to my door. I bit frustrated by the distraction, I decide to keep my mind focused on the fact that I may be dreaming, as I open the door for her.

She says that she saw me in the window and wanted to say hi. But she is busy and has to go somewhere else. I say hi, and nice seeing you again. Then close the door as she walks away.

Not forgetting my reality checking, I pinch my nose again and hold it. I breath in and out just fine. I now believe that I'm dreaming. And just a second after I become fully Lucid, Somebody comes knocking at the door of my house, making my dog bark, waking me up!:pissed:
