Its been a loooong time, I really don't keep up with this as much as I should but I'll keep posting memorably ones.

[L]

My recollection begins as I'm flying over a large open field next to a lone office building. I realize that I have to be dreaming because I can't fly IRL. So I proceed to climb higher and notice that I'm flying much more freely than I usually do. I can typically only hover and glide at a pretty moderate speed some sort of mental block there. However this time I had my arms outstretched to my side like an airplane. I noticed a few groups of birds either ducks or geese flying in different directions. I thought it must have something to do with them like lending me their power of flight or something.

I was flying at probly 30 mph or so swooping around like peter pan (gay analogy I know) over a field of long lush very green grass. I started flying under and over some power lines that crossed the field with about 4-5 cables strung tower to tower. I think to myself be careful not to get tangled up in them. I swoop around again and of course murphy's law, I fly right into it. It felt like I flew into a rope net instead of 2 inch thick power cables. I concentrated on just relaxing and falling to the ground trying not to thrash around to much which might wake me up. I just fell right out of the tangled lines with ease onto the ground.

I flew up again and turned to look past the tree line over a hill and saw dark clouds. Usually in my dreams dark clouds make me feel uneasy to the point of waking up. They fill me with a sense of impending doom. The clouds were very dark almost black and there were visible lighting bolts coming out. It made me uneasy, I didn't know what if anything was going to happen but I still had this fear in my gut. I looked to my left and there were more approaching pretty quick.

I flew to the office building to take cover with the feeling that all hell was about to break loose. There were people clamoring about trying to get inside. I went into the building and stood next to the window waiting for the building to collapse or a black hole to open up. I looked at a woman next to me and asked her what was going on and she just smiled. I looked outside and it was raining. I remember this wave of relief washing over me and feeling like a total over reactor . I remember looking out the window and watching the water hit the window and gather into little globs that dripped down gathering others as it went. Lastly I remember thinking "Wow this just looks SO realistic no video game could ever match this kind of realism and immersion". Then I lose recollection of anything further.

Dream stuff is in red

Night of 11/05/09:

I woke up around 4:30 hoping I would be able to fall asleep before I had to get up at 8.  I typically have trouble falling back asleep in the early morning.  I relax every muscle trying to get back to sleep instead of thinking about stuff which keeps me awake.  I feel my body gradually feel like its getting heavier and I feel a slight spinning feeling [L] I then sit back up and pull out an I-phone and start going through menus on it.  I realize I don't have an I-phone IRL this immediately makes me start to wake up but I concentrate on the phone and get up out of bed. I walk through the wall into the backyard. I take a look around for a sec and noticed it was cold, really cold. I could see my breath and started to feel chilly i had to concentrate that it wasn't actually cold so I would't wake up.  I fly up to my roof and look out into the street. it starts snowing which it never really does here in Texas.  However the snow started to get really thick in the air and then I noticed the snowflakes were the size of dinner plates.  They looked like those paper cutouts you make as a child all floating down and stacking up on each other.

I lose lucidity/recollection after that.

[F]

I remember trying to create an energy blast in my hands to shoot at something.  I kept trying and literally only getting a poof or a small ball of energy.  I concentrated this strange feeling of energy and pressure into my hands and focused it forward.  It shot a hole in the ceiling above me and I inspected the hole smiling that I had figured it out.

First one is a lucid fragment: I become lucid on a street near my house in front of some apartments. I walk up the street to the church at the end. Theres a large open area of grass not quite a field but large. I stumble across a large arrow head made of metal about the size of my palm. I pick it up and realize its kinda light to be made of solid metal. I decided to try a lucid dream challenge of making something heavier or lighter. I concentrate on making the arrow head lighter. It was a strange sensation I could feel an energy flow from somewhere going through my body into my hand. The arrow head got lighter and lighter until it had a pretty good hang time from just tapping it back into the air. It was funny because I could feel its weight fluctuating and I had to concentrate to keep it light. I thought to see how much farther I could throw it then when heavier. I heave it a good 80 yards. I run and retrieve it to see if I can make it heavier. As I concentrate I can feel it get quite heavy too heavy to throw. So I drop it from only about 7 inches off the ground and it smacks into the ground leaving a quarter inch impression. After this I lose recollection/lucidity.

Second Non Lucid Fragment: I recall walking through a department store in the electronics section with TVs stacked a good 12 feet high. The TVs were strange though, they were obviously tube TVs but some had the same picture spread into multiple little screens separated by wood framing. Sort of like those displays you see with multiple screens making up one giant one. Thing is these were only equivalent to a 27 inch TV and each of the smaller screens had like a one inch frame between them. I keep walking past all these strange TVs and realize they are all pretty fuzzy. It makes me wonder why some retailers have such shitty picture on the TVs they are trying to sell. I decide to look for the dvr or whatever they are all streaming from. I can't seem to find one but when I go around a corner I notice a VR helmet and try it out. When I try to put the helmet on I can't get my head in because of the army style bucket helmet I'm already wearing...? The black guy operating it said he would make it a roller coaster ride. I'm looking in the helmet and can see a tube of redish textures going by in an appropriate manner for a roller coaster ride but nothing like a landscape or anything. I decide it was lame and then lose recollection.

Fragment: I'm driving in the back of an SUV with a few people from my old HS.  Whats funny is its people I was friendly with but never hung out with.  We were looking for someone to by marijuana from.  We were supposed to have met up with someone who would sell it to us but they either didn't have any or weren't there I can't remember.  I told them there has to be somewhere in the city to just drive up and ask around.  A shadier neighborhood where its common place.  One of the guys flips open a GPS navigation device.  There are several arrows on the map in different places that I took were markers of dealers locations.  I lose recollection after that.

Whats funny is I never hung out with these people and I haven't smoked weed in years :/.  I think setting up my facebook has fucked with my dream contacts list.

I still dream about "the old days" once in a while - which for me mostly ended right around 1980.

That "special" GPS would have been useful back then.

F: I'm at work and I'm checking out a customer.  Its an older man he seems familiar but I can't place it.  I ask him his last name to open his account and its the same as a neighbor's of mine from years back.  I asked him if he had a son R and he said he did and he thought he recognized me.  He said R was having a hard time like me but things were going to turn around for him and me soon.  It made me feel good.

F: I'm riding in the car with my mother driving.  I can't remember how I found out this information but, my mom had been in an accident and was in ICU at the hospital.  I remember having the feeling of "Does not compute!" come into my head then lose recollection.

My recollection has been crap lately.  Its mostly fragments of larger dreams that I just can't remember..

D:I'm a room with a cement floor and walls with lots of cracks here and there with blood on the floor and walls.  I pick up a broken concrete pedestal with ornate imagery on it.  There is an intact pedestal in the middle of the room.  I hold the cracked piece of pedestal over it and it drips blood onto the unbroken one.  All of a sudden the floor starts to crack and open up.  I run outside and I'm in my own backyard.  A giant human shaped monster made of greenish black fog emerges from my room breaking through the roof.  Suddenly my backyard and as far as I can see is covered in a thick green fog.  I see some sort of creature off in the distance and think its the source of it so I have to kill it.  I start to charge a ki blast in my hands.  Its a particular technique used in the dragon ball anime series called a Kamehameha.  (I watch way too much anime ).  I sound it out Ka-me-ha-me-ha as the energy builds in my hands they feel as if I am spinning my hands and there is IMMENSE pressure inside them combined with a stinging heat like feeling.  I fire it at the creature except there is no explosion the blast travels off into the fog and disappears.  I try again and hit it dead on incinerating it.  The fog lifts and I lose recollection.

F: I'm in the downtown area of some city.  I'm levitating all around just wondering around.  I make my way to a Wal Mart sort of super store.  I remember seeing how well I can move stuff with telekinesis and someone throwing something at me and deflecting it.  Than I'm out in the parking lot trying to fly and do flips in the air.  It was hard because when I get upside down I have to manipulate the energy around me accordingly or I bottom out on the second half of the flip.

D:I'm on the side of a freeway near my house on foot.  I'm carrying a mattress I don't know why but I have to get it home.  I get startled by a car whizzing by and drop the mattress into the freeway where its run over by a couple cars.  I scramble to get it before its destroyed.  I get it and its a little beat up but not too bad.  I keep walking towards my house and it starts to rain.  The freeway is noticeably different than the one that is actually near me.  There is a long stretch of hwy that is under bridges/underground.  I hurry to get to it to get out of the rain for a bit.  When I get there, there are a few people hanging out I guess to get out of the rain.  I remember getting into a conflict with one of them who happened to be a very old childhood friend that the friendship had gone sour.  I lose recollection after that.

My recollection was good this morning but I fell back asleep after it so I'll put in the pieces I remember.

D:  I"m walking along the bridge over a lake near my house.  I'm with someone I can't remember exactly who but they were an old friend.  The bridge turns into a rope/plank bridge over the remaining span into someones backyard.  I look to my left and there is a HUGE sea monster looking creature.  It was pinkish colored with darker red spots with a hammer head shark head and a plesiosaur body.  It freaked me out because I was only a couple inches above the water line and it was breaching right by the bridge. I make my way into the backyard of the house with whoever it was I was traveling with.

Next thing I remember is being chased away from the house by some people I went to school with.  Basically all the popular jock guys and some that were just jerks.  I'm jumping fences doing forward flips and launching off of telephone wires like tarzarn navigating the jungle.  I come to a stop and they surround me.  I take a couple out with some punches and throws and the others just kind of stand there.  I remember one of them saying "Hes using dragon style!" (lol so dorky).  Thats the last I remember of it.

Had some WILD early this morning with lots of vivid dreaming

LF/D:  I WILD into the median of the highway right near my house.  Its really bright and the air seems fresh and warm.  I fly towards my house reveling in how bright and detailed everything is.  I get to my street and start praising god at how beautiful everything is.  I fly up in spirals a couple times and then look up into the sky.  Where the sun usually is was an Earth like planet.  It made me imagine I was in the sun looking out.  I fly closer to my house and notice some person walking down the street.

As I get closer to them I notice they are a humanoid alien/monster.  It kinda gets me unnerved for a moment and I calm myself down so I don't lose lucidity.  I realize I have to change it into a real person before this dream spirals down into a nightmare.  I hold out my hands concentrating and it slowly morphs into a cartoonish looking man.  Right after that more of the creatures start coming out of the wood work and I can't change them all.  I lose lucidity at this moment but a VVD sequence follows directly after.

I'm floating probly 5 feet off the ground in the middle of the street I live on.  I'm trying to fight off this horde of monsters when I hear a narrator say something along the lines of. "The human's favorite bomb was the atomic kind."  I see a bright flash and know whats coming.  I spread with open arms with my eyes closed ready to embrace incineration.  I hear it rushing towards me and feel a slight push.  I open my eyes and all the trees/houses are gone and I'm just looking over a barren hill at a bright red yellowish explosion pouring over it.  I see a giant humanoid figure standing at the epicenter of the light.  I immediately think of an Evangelion from the anime I've watched.  I lose lucidity and recollection after that.

There were more dream sequences but I can't remember most of them I may post the fragments I can remember when I get out of work.

I really should have typed up an entry right after I woke up but I had to get to school.  There was muck more to it but I'll just elaborate on the more interesting part.

L/F: I actually start lucidity in the median of the HWY by my house.  I float across the empty HWY toward my street.  I try to fly up the street as fast as I can.  I push my fists out super man style and blast down the street.  Everything along my side was a blur of green from the trees and other stuff.  An old friend of mine from all the way back to elementary school lives at the end of the street on the perpendicular street.  I see their house coming at me for a split second and try to turn but slam into it with a thud.  No pain but I felt a small push against me.

F: I'm in my neighbors front yard and I decide to try to walk through the walls into the house.  I'm not lucid but the dream is extremely vivid.  The house is still vacant since the elderly woman died (IRL there is a family thats been living there for at least 3 months.)  I walk up to the front of the house next to the door and push myself through the front wall into their living room.  I look around with just my head poking in and have a sort of narrative "Hey you can't just walk into someone else's house.  I pull my head back through but when I do I can see part of the wood siding of the house stretch like latex and snap onto my face leaving part of my face as wood siding :/.  I thought that was odd and walked through the wooden pillar on their front porch and the same thing happens.  The pillar stretches under the stress but like a rubber, snapping off as I take on its physical characteristics on my body.  I start to feel heavier and its harder to walk.  I lurch towards a small magnolia tree that is no longer there and walk through a couple of its branches leaving my skin with a shiny dark green portion on my arm.  I lose recollection after that.

D:  I'm walking in my backyard with a group of people a couple older guys and a very young girl.  We walk toward the fence and sit on the swing set.  They are all talking to one another while I'm looking around.  I look up at the top of a telephone pole in the corner of the yard and its covered in what looked like glowing butterflies in a big mass at the top of it.  I look at it and notice that its pulsing from bright to dim bright to dim.  I hold out my hand and I can control the brightness of it.  I tell the others to look and check it out but the glowing butterflies all scatter and disappear.

Immediately after that a bright light comes from my left.  I look and its coming from the house next to my neighbor.  Their back room is like a sun room completely walled by windows.  I look closer and there is a woman running on a treadmill.  Its Bette Midler and shes not just jogging on the treadmill shes running like a madman possessed.  An older man is sitting in a chair reading and a young woman is pacing while talking to them.  I can't hear the conversation, and I lose recollection.

A madWOMAN, surely.  And with Bette, that must have been a sight to behold.

She was one of my favorite singers in the 70's.

It was cool, come to think of it I don't have any recollection of any other celebs in my dreams. Watch tonight Kanye is going to hijack my dream telling me that beyonce had a better one

Quote from: green_rave on June 04, 2014, 05:14:31 PMOkay first of all, someone please explain to me what the hell is going on with these two guys: Maybe dancey guy is lucid and letting gun guy shoot him to prove how invincible he is?

Hahaha, thank you!  That it the best explanation.

I'm at the bus stop waiting to go to school.  I only  have on one sock, and neither of my shoes.  I am deliberating about whether or not to try to go home and get my other sock before the bus comes.  If I go home to get it I could miss the bus.  I ask my mom if I can go get her car and drive to school, even though I'm not guaranteed a parking spot.  She says no, because she has something she wants to talk to me about.  We get on the bus and I have to go to the bathroom.

Mom only wanted to yell at be about something that happened at dinner the night before.  I get off at the next stop and have to walk home, but I pass by the other high school on my way.

I know my car is parked there somewhere.  I try to walk to the parking lot but the shoes I'm wearing are like roller blades and I have a hard time walking.  I finally get to my car.  Aidan is with me now and I offer to drive him home too.  Halfway home, he decides he wants to hold up a convenience store when we just had to pick up some carnations.

[D] I am outside in the front yard of an unfamiliar house.  There is a group of people outside standing around looking at a large metal object in the yard.  It was a pristine brushed metal dome sticking out of the ground.  Everyone who had gathered is keeping their distance while talking to each other about what it might be.  I walk up to it and feel a vibration emanating from it and a strong static electric charge.  I stood looking at it when all of a sudden VVVWOM I'm knocked to my ass by a pulse from the object.  My whole body felt like I had just been mildly electrocuted.  I stood up and walked away to see an old friend M.  She said the pulses were getting more and more frequent but they don't know why.  We decide to get on the roof of the house that the object is in the front yard of.  We climb up and lay down looking over the crest of the roof down to the object in the yard below.  I think there was some sort of conversation but I don't remember it now.  Next thing I remember the object's pulses started to get more and more frequent.  I climbed down off the roof to get another look at it on the ground.  As I approach it the pulses becoming more and more rapid the closer I got eventually building to a steady hum.  I am about 20 feet away from it when I see a red hue fill a small area of the overcast sky.  I look up to see an asteroid punch through the clouds and heading toward the ground and say to myself in a humble tone "Jesus Mary and Joseph...".  Everything suddenly goes into slow motion.  I see the pock marked oblong shaped asteroid turning end over end as it gets closer to the ground eventually impacting a couple miles in the distance.  I think to myself "well at least I'm close enough that I'll almost instantly be incinerated."  I could see the shock wave propagate across the landscape as the ground is incrementally pulverized and sent skyward.  The shock wave is almost upon me when I gesture the sign of the cross touching my head, heart and shoulders. When I do everything returns to normal speed and I'm enveloped by the searing shock wave of super heated gas and dust.  I could only feel a slight warmth for a split second and I lose recollection.

Funny thing about the religious elements in the dream.  I'm not a religious person at all and have never been to church a day in my life aside from appeasing friends who invited me.

Wow, interesting and scary dream! It would have made a bad ass lucid!  And that is funny about the religious symbols. Haha I guess you whip out all the stops when an asteroid is headed your way?

Its odd how I was strangely comfortable with the apocalyptic scenario.  I hope I can get some more lucid time soon, maybe I can prevent the world from ending

[D] I am outside walking toward the doors of an old brick and mortar school.  People are fleeing from something all running to either hide or get out of the building.  The thought jumps in my head "Wheres P?!" my nephew who is only three years old. I push and elbow my way upstream through the crowd of people flowing out of the building repeatedly calling out his name.  I make it inside and the entire building is empty.  I call his name a couple more times.  Recollection gets fuzzy here but I am suddenly holding a tiny baby the size of a thumb in my hand.  I think its my nephew but know it can't be.  Next thing I remember I am back searching for my nephew in the empty hall of the school.  I see a large black square vent above the height of the doors with a crate below making it accessible.  I don't know why but I make my way up to the vent and pry it off and climb in the vent.  I am able to easily crawl on my hands and knees through the vent.  The light coming from the entrance to the vent begins to fade as I make my way deeper.  I turn a corner and find another vent cover and push it off.  It falls into a completely pitch black room but I never hear it land on anything.  Looking out of the vent I can't see any wall or surface what so ever.  I look into the void and realize I have a flashlight and pull it out to see if i can safely get into the room.  I shine the light into the room and see a wall directly across from the vent.  The wall is covered in strange black stone sculptures of demonic looking creatures with horns and large teeth.  I get the thought they aren't demons however but an alien race.  As I realize this I turn the flashlight from the parallel wall downward to the left.  The light reveals people sitting completely silent in a large auditorium surrounding the wall of sculptures in a semi circle.  They have completely blank expressions on their faces and seem completely indifferent to my presence not even turning their head when I shine the light on them.  I have the thought "They must be waiting for them". I lose recollection here.

[D] I am outside at a park at around dusk.  I am with a friend J, we are walking and talking but I can't remember what about now.  We make our way to a playground with a tall metal structure that has a crows nest type platform at the top of the tower.  We climb up and stand at the top of the tower.  The playground was at the top of a large hill that let you look over the entire town.  J points out that we can see the top of another building that was the highest point in the town and was a good spot to look over the city.  I turn and look behind us and there was an closed down water park gated in by a tall chain link fence.  We both climb down  and walk over to the fence to get a closer look inside.  We are against the fence looking into the condemned park and see a thirty foot fiberglass cartoon child mascot that was also part of a slide.  The statue had paint missing in parts and holes all over.  I look closely at the hand it had raised in the air as if it were waving.  I see a swarm of insects come flying out of some of the holes.  Me and J stumble back as the swarm descends upon us.  The black swarm of small flying insects lands on my hand and quickly moves off.  I see holes instantly form as my hand instantly decays, flesh turning green then black and disintegrating.  I lose recollection here.

[F] I am outside in an unfamiliar neighborhood riding a bike to get to a convenience store to get something to eat.  I get to the convenience store I was headed to and its closed and seems to have been for quite a while.  I look down a hill and see a 7-11 at the bottom maybe a mile away.  There is a very large field of tall green grass between myself and the 7-11.  I begin to walk across the field and find its a marsh like muck that I don't want to trudge through.  I think "I'll just fly there" and crouch down slightly and launch myself high into the air.  I am about 200 feet about the ground and make my way above the parking lot of the 7-11 and let go and quickly fall landing on my feet in the parking lot.

[F] I am in what a appears to be a woman's bedroom laying on a bed.  I close my eyes meditating trying to leave my body and astral project.  I can feel myself getting really close but I'm having a little trouble climbing out of my body.  My physical body is laying on its stomach motionless but with my astral body I move my hands in front of myself and I am trying to push my way out of my physical body.  I never quite make it.

Next two fragments are from the past two days I had been too busy/lazy to write them down.

[F] A friend of mine had convinced me to watch some movie explaining some sort of structured marketing scheme.  I had agreed to watch it since all it would cost was little time.  Turns out I was wrong.  My friend approached me after the movie ended with a clipboard in hand.  He tried going over where I would start in the organization.  I glazed over and just nodded politely and signed off on some sheet without really thinking.  I heard him mention something about "You can pay such and such now and we can work with you on the rest of it later".  This snapped me out of the trance.  I grab the clipboard and flip through the paperwork trying to see what I had just signed off on.  I tell him I'm not paying anything and I had only visited to be polite.  He kept reiterating that I had signed off on it and I'm legally obligated to pay whatever I had signed off on.  I tell him, "We'll see about that in court then because I'm not paying anything."

[F] I am outside of a large brick office building at night.  I am walking across a grassy lawn and notice two or three grotesque pale humanoid creatures run up behind me.  They looked like humans with no hair and pail with prominent bulging veins all over their bodies.  I quickly run to a near by AC unit and kick them away as I climb onto it.  I have a feeling of annoyance rather than fear, almost like its an every day thing that's just getting old.  I turn and crouch down looking at the creatures clawing up at me.  I remember saying some nonchalant quip as I gathered energy into my hands and blasted them into dust with an energy beam.

[F] I am sitting in an open lunch room or meeting room.  Its a cheap looking room with florescent lighting, long folding tables with those thick plastic blue chairs and ugly off white vinyl tiles.  A large black woman is speaking to the group of people sparsely seated throughout the room.  She says something about cleaning the windows on a daily basis and I mockingly nudge the person next to me about the pedantic training material.  She sees me and gives me a nasty look.  She gathers her stuff up and tells everyone "That's everything for today" and we all stand up and file out of the room.  I head out the door and toward a stairwell going up to the next floor.  The entire stairway was filled with people and I walk along side it and jump up and grab the ledge where the stairwell curves and makes its next angle upward.  I am hanging there as I look down and behind myself to see the teacher from the class glaring at me with her arms crossed.  I smile and say something like "Just kidding!" and let go and go back around to go up the stairs instead of climbing them.

[F] I am sitting in the cab of an old chevy truck talking on a cell phone.  I am talking to K a podcaster I listen to who I assume I got a call from during their recording.  I am looking up at the sky and see it slowly fill with billowing pitch black clouds.  I describe the churning black clouds to K and he asks me to take a picture of it with my phone and send it to him.  I tell him to hold on while I do so.  I am taking a picture of the clouds as they start to descend upon the buildings.  A tentacle of the ominous black mass stretches out and spirals down toward me.  This is when I realize its not a cloud of smoke but a thick swarm of bees.  I hear the deafening hum fill the air as the swarm engulfs the truck spilling in the open window.  I could feel a million stings across my arms and legs as I lose recollection.

[F] I am at work behind the register.  A man pays to reload a prepaid card with cash.  I count out the stack of twenties and enter the amount on the register.  I look back down at the money and realize it looks sort of like normal American bills but tiny, like scaled down 25%.  I look back at the customer and tell him this isn't real money and I can't take it.  I remember being worried about how I was going to fix the cash issue of my till since I already entered the amount and closed the transaction.

[D] I am in a nicely furnished large office that looked like it was straight out of a business magazine.  I realize I'm alone and I could close the blinds and check out some porn.  I walk over to the door and lock it and close the blinds I turn and walk away from the door and feel a hand on my shoulder.  I turn and there is an older asian man hunched over sweating clutching a large stack of folders and papers with a wild look in his eyes.  I ask him how he got in here I just locked the door.  He explains he designed it and he knows a way to pull on it in a certain way to release the lock.  I am walking toward the door coaxing him in that direction.  I tell him with a patronizing tone "Wow really? Can you show me how you released the lock?"  The closer we get to the door he started to look increasingly worried.  Either that he couldn't replicate what he claimed or that he knew I was just tricking him to get outside to lock him back out again.  I get him back outside the office and lock the door.

I lose some transitional information here but I remember being attacked in the office by a monstrous humanoid alien.  It was about 7 feet tall with a giant head with a protruding forehead and wearing a black suit.  Somehow I manage to decapitate and immediately after being decapitated the grey skin on the skull had disappeared. The skull was transparent almost like a crystal skull.  I could see what looked like two brain hemispheres integrated into the crystalline structure of the skull.  I leave the office and talk to a security guard and tell him to leave the head in the lab of the crazy doctor because he would be the primary suspect anyway and noone would question him having killed it.  Last thing I remember is a crazy doctor in a lab coat resembling Doc Brown from back to the future run out of his lab with two crystal skulls raving about how he found the second one.

[F] I am climbing a mountain and making my way up a shear cliff.  I see giant dark red crystal pillars jutting out of the peak.  I think to myself "This must be Blood Crystal Mountain".

Possibly later on in the same fragment I am trying to find hand holds and foot holds on a giant structure carved into a cliff.  The form carved into the rock was too large to tell what it was but it was certainly man made. I usually get scared of the height in these types of dreams but this time I didn't.  I remember seeing I was extremely high up and only saw ground thousands of feet below me unlike the view from a mountain would be.  It was almost as if I was on a giant tower of some kind.

[DF/LD] I am outside in the well manicured front lawn of a cookie cutter nice house with similar houses lining both sides of the street.  There must have been a block party going on because the lawns of a couple houses were full of families mingling.  I am talking to a group of kids and tell them "Check this out."  I concentrate on pushing myself into the air I am not exactly very stable. I could feel the repulsive force pushing me up only directly underneath my feet and my left leg seemed to have less force below it than my right.  I look to my left and see out over the large crowd of people some notice me and wave and cheer.  I reach about 20 feet in the air and stop.  I try to stabilize myself by increasing the force beneath my weak left foot. In doing so I realize I need to spread the energy throughout my body and this makes me realize I'm dreaming.

(lucid bit) I move the energy from my feet to my chest I could feel it radiate from just below my sternum in my solar plexus chakra. The energy radiates from my solar plexus around me in a sort of toroidal electromagnetic field I could feel it flow in, through me and back out.  I test out my knew found control and fly over the crowd doing a loop and stopping again about 20 feet up.  I decide to also test my reaction time by switching off the flight energy and falling then stopping myself from hitting the ground as close as I can.  I do this a couple times stopping face down only inches above the ground. I could feel the repulsive force stopping me from smacking into the ground similar to two like magnetic poles pushing one another apart.  The next thing I remember I am no longer outside but back in my bed.  I thought I had woken up (I actually hadn't) and get out of bed and go into my bathroom and sit on the floor.  I decide to try to get back to the lucid dream.  I relax sitting with my legs folded staring at the sink and mirror in my bathroom.  I see what looks like pressure induced phosphenes popping up in random parts of my vision that begin to grow and fill my vision blacking out the view of my bathroom and then suddenly I'm back outside.  I lose recollection here immediately though.

Great sequence there, O1!  It's been awhile since I've done some dream healing!

[D] I am in a large open room almost like a gymnasium of some kind and one entire wall was a giant plexiglass window.  The entire area was filled with people walking around in blue scrubs.  This is when I realize its a prison and this was the mass housing unit where they keep low risk inmates in bunks in the one large area.  I get a strange sinking feeling when I realize I'm not just visiting the prison I'm actually an inmate.  I could feel all the blood leave my head as I try to remember why I am in prison.  I get a faint idea that I was convicted of something but I can't remember what and that my sentence was one year.  I make my way to one side of the large open area and sit against a wall to try to gather my thoughts.  I try to calm my self by reassuring I only have a one year sentence and I should be ok if I just keep to myself and follow the rules.  All sorts of horrific thoughts start flying through my head.  "What am I going to do all day?! The boredom alone would drive me crazy!"  "What if someone just doesn't like me they could beat me up or cut me for the hell of it."  I remember having a brief exchange with another inmate who seemed to be pretty relaxed I can't remember what about anymore though.  Next thing I can remember I am walking talking to a woman in a suite and she tells me I'm not only in for a year but a life sentence.  My heart hits the floor and I lose recollection.

There were many other fragments that I just can't remember this late in the night anymore.

[F]I am in a room I don't recognize, I pick up a a bug's head from the floor.  It looks like a large mantis head.  I examine it closely and notice it looks a little too symmetric.  I pull out a magnifying glass to look as it closer.  I notice inside one of the eyes is a chair and flight panel as if it were a cockpit of a vessel of some kind.  Suddenly my perspective shifts to slowly circling around a space ship that looks similar to the mantis head I was examining.  My view is circling the ship that is floating in a black void.  Coming from my view is a red and white strobing light.  The vessel I'm in circling the other ship, scanning it for life forms and creating a model of the interior.  I lose recollection here.

[F] I am in the middle of a small highway at the edge of a large city.  I can see the city in the distance being destroyed by a giant monster of some kind.  It was a giant humanoid monster spewing fire and lava from its arms.  THen I notice Godzilla approach the other monster and attack him.  They are duking it out while slowly making their way out of the city in my direction.  I realize they are headed my way and even if I ran the wide path of destruction would be impossible to escape.  I decide to try to find the sturdiest building I could find and hunker down.  Before I find a place to hide indoors I am approached by a half lizard humanoid creature.  It reminds me of a Sleestak from Land of the Lost.  It approaches me and immediately starts talking to me in a mix of hisses and clicks.  Somehow I don't understand it as words but I just know hes telling me not to be afraid and that we need to take cover.  I respond with hisses and clicks of my own tell him to follow me.  I lose recollection here.

Get ready for that REM rebound, O1.  I am anticipating some myself!

[D] Recollection begins looking over what looks like an old west town.  There were the typical rickety wooden buildings along a wide dirt road.  Where the road turned left I saw something out of place.  Amongst the small one and two story buildings was a huge 4 story contraption.  It was a huge wooden wall behind a giant multistory obstacle course with moving padded wheels, nets and other obstacles.  My view shifts closer almost like a camera view onto the people navigating the course.  It turns out to be Corey and Chumlee from Pawn Stars.  Corey is visibly frustrated with the obstacle course and Chumlee's casual annoying comments.

[D] I am walking through a parking garage or lot of some kind.  The driving area between the parked cars is extremely narrow.  There are people standing next to their cars and sitting in the cars.  As I'm walking along I notice another person join me and hands me a gun.  Its an old single shot flint pistol with elaborate engraving on the metal.  We walk along the parked cars loading and cocking the guns.  I have the thought that when we pass a certain car we just start shooting.  We slowly approach the invisible line and then start shooting every person in site.  As I shoot I move on to the next so fast I don't even see anyone get shot or even fall down.  We leave the lot and make our way through a walkway between buildings with people sitting on benches.  We keep shooting random people as we make our way to an open grassy area with paved walkways joining the surrounding buildings.  I toss aside the pistol and pull out a rifle from a duffel bag.  The rifle's barrel was in 3 pieces that needed to be screwed together.  I decide to get a better vantage point and run toward one of the brick buildings.  The roof is about 20 feet up and I launch myself with a super human jump grasping the edge of the roof and pulling myself up.  I am up on the roof and screw together the barrel and take aim into the open grassy area.  I rest the gun on the edge of the roof and try aiming with the notches on the barrel but I can't get them to line up.  I give up on it and jump down and tell the other shooters we need to loot the guns on the other people.  We walk through the aftermath of the crazy shooting inspecting the dead for guns.  I find a couple pistols and find an old man sitting on a bench in the walkway from earlier slumped over.  He had an orange duffel bag under his arm and I open it.  There aren't any guns but its full of knives, throwing knives, hunting knives and short swords.  I am still looking through the bag and tell the other shooters "This guy was a knife expert!".  I lose recollection here.

Looking back on it the shooting dream is pretty disturbing.  It played out like a video game as I was completely detached the entire time.

Lock N' Load Biotch!  It was a really strange dream though it was like a video game almost.

[D] I am working at Blockbuster Video still for some reason and decide to get lunch next door at a pizza place.  I walk in and make my way to the counter and order something that I can't remember now.  The guy hands me a cup to fill up at the fountain.  I turn toward the fountain and realize I don't have a straw.  I turn back around an ask the clerk for a staw.  He hands me one and I pop it in my cup.  Right before I fill up the cup I notice the straw is filled with gunk.  I turn back to the clerk who has a mischievous smile on his face and the other teenagers behind the counter are giggling.  I walk over smiling calmly stating "Very funny... Let me have another straw." He crassly responds "No" still grinning and walks around the counter and crossing his arms.  I walk over trying to keep my cool, "What you gonna do about it?" he says in a shitty tone.  The kid was young and dumb and I did want to crack him but I know I'm not really good in a fight and its not really worth it.  I just smile and tell him to get his manager.  He doesn't at first and just looks at me grinning.  I state again "You're not going to goad me into a fight so just go get your manager".  He still doesn't budge and I notice an older man come around from behind the counter.  It was an old friend of mine J whose house was in the dream a few nights ago.  He looks a bit older than we actually are with a slight hunch and weathered with an obviously cheap haircut.  He smiles politely and asks whats going on.  I explain what happened and he responds with a sort of "kids these days" response.  My recollection gets foggy here.

Aha... The old Blockbuster days - It was always very exciting to go in and see all those movies and wonder what great one you are going to see next... Has it totally gone now... Did it completely go under! I suppose these days it's all about streaming online. It sounds like an altercation that could quite easily happen.

Yea they closed all stores nation wide this time last year.  I had worked there for 7 years bouncing from store to store as they closed over the last 3 years before closing all of them.  I really liked working there aside from the low pay.  It was fun and easy almost like being a movie librarian.

Gunky straw. Blahhh. I'll be checking my straws out from now on, I bet.

[F] leading into a lucid below I am mimicking the sound of a loud sports car while zipping along a curving street. The fact that I'm essentially flying a few feet above the ground mimicking a sports car makes me realize I'm dreaming.

[L] I get excited and decide to try to go as fast as I possibly can.  The environment around me starts to blur and warp and all shapes to my left and right blur into a multicolored gradient on my left and right and there is just a solid black ground meeting a solid white sky forming a horizon in front.  I get a little scared that I might push too far and wake up. Next thing I remember I am in a small unfamiliar bedroom.  There is a large queen size bed high up on an ornate wooden frame next to the door and a dresser and bookshelf on the other side of the door in the corner.  The room is pretty drab with nothing on the walls almost like a generic B&B.

My recollection gets foggy for a split second here.  I don't remember anyone else being in the room but I am talking to someone about there being "multiple layers" and gesturing with my hands stacking one above the other over and over.

I regain control and recollection and try to leave the room via the window.  I try flying straight through the window to just passed through it like usual.  I do and pop right back into the same room.  I do this three more times and get a little frustrated.  Finally I manage to relax and pass through slowly and emerge outside.  It is a cool clear morning wherever it was.  I fly down from the window which was on the second floor and land on the ground.  I think about how I normally fly around and do crazy shit when I am lucid but I decide to try to just take in the dream.  I think about how dreaming me is creating all of this and if I try too hard to change things I might wake up so I just try to relax and keep the dreaming me asleep.  When I do everything becomes 10 times more vivid trying to describe the innate qualia that made it so much more vivid is impossible.  I look down to my right at some flowers at the base of a telephone pole.  They were little clusters of small inch wide pure white flowers.  I kneel down and could see every little dew drop on the leaves and pedals.  I reach down to feel it and grasp around the base of the flowers and slowly raise my hand as the leaves pass through my hand.  When I get to a cluster of flowers I grip tighter and pull off a cluster of the flowers.  I open my hand and the wet dew had made the white pedals stick to my hand.  I try to shake them off and when I do the pedals rearrange themselves into a perfect rose like configuration on the tip of my index finger.  This makes me laugh and I grab another cluster of flowers stripping the pedals and shake my hand to form another tiny white rose on my middle finger.  I do this one more time making 3 finger tip roses and quickly pluck the pedals from my fingertips.  I could feel them pull from my finger as if they had been rooted there.  I turn around to survey the area and see the house I had come out of.  It was a small light blue two story victorian with white shutters and a covered porch on the right.  Next to the house on the side I was on was a huge pile of rubble with nail filled boards and corrugated metal sheets.  I look at it and for some reason the idea that a rubble pile like that would be like a soft comfy bed for an indestructible monster like the hulk or something.  I think "well lets give it a shot"  and jump up into the air about 20 feet above the rubble pile.  I land on it feeling everything giving way as if I weighed a ton and roll around like a pig in the mud.  The pile of rusted sharp medal and splintered wood felt like a soft pile of blankets.  I lose recollection there.

[F]False awakening I am still trying to take in the hyper vivid lucid I had and decide to record it but don't want to turn on the lights to write or type.  I grab my phone and find a voice recording app and start describing everything above.  I am not in my room however I am outside in some kind of canyon.  There are multiple large rock formations split by running water snaking between them.  I am trying to describe the dream above while walking along and kicking down makeshift log bridges across the small chutes of water going between the rocks.  I finally sit down and a man and a woman walk over and ask what I'm doing.  I tell them I am trying to record this dream I just had and invite them to join me and talk about our dreams.

Loved the flowers bit. DO you happen to have a green thumb iwl?

Quote from: Vex on January 10, 2015, 12:18:54 AMLoved the flowers bit. DO you happen to have a green thumb iwl?

Never really did much gardening but what I have planted and grown turned out healthy.

[F] I am in a large open atrium of a hotel or office building that goes up about 4 stories.  I am flying in the middle of the atrium going back and forth from one wall toward another.  I'm not flying like normal in a lucid with control. I'm more gliding downward then banking upward then turning and flying back downward and banking back up in the opposite direction.  I couldn't really propel myself I had to use gravity and the centrifugal force when banking upward to stay aloft.  The only control I had was slightly turning my hands in different directions to control my pitch, roll and yaw like ailerons on a plane.  Later I am in the same atrium as before describing my flight to a group of people.

There were many more fragments but I can't recall them anymore.  Its funny once I've tried to make it a point try to write here every day I have dreams where I'm discussing the dream I just had with people.  Part of that I think is wanting to document it before I forget it.

[D] The setting is a Blockbuster Video again..  This store is huge though, it has one front area that is lower than another level up a single step to the rear of the store.  I am at the rear of the store pulling down videos because the store had recently been shut down.  I am on my knees clearing off a bottom shelf of movies.  I wish I could remember what is was but I can't just that it had an orange cover.  As I pull the movies from the shelf the cases behind the front few are empty.  I smile and shake my head thinking "Really?" about the petty shoplifters.  I continue pulling the movies when my old district manager walks over and says she has to go over some stuff with me.  She lays down on the rough brown carpeted floor and I do the same next to her.  She is talking about something to do with the store and circling things on the paper.  I don't recall what but as she is talking I notice the floor starts to give way a bit.  I look down and the floor has become like a water bed ebbing and churning with every slight movement.  I lean to one side and hear a noise from behind me, like the peel of a sticky piece of paper.  I look behind me and we are right near a corner of the room and the waterbed floor is coming away from it.  I sit up making the floor separate more from the corner wall revealing a dead man propped sitting up in the corner.  He slowly emerges from behind the waterbed flooring.  He had small cuts on his pale white face and his large blue eyes were open with a dead stare.  This freaks me out and I turn back to my manager to tell her.  I tap on her shoulder and look back at the corpse.  I lay there eyes wide and mouth agape as he gets up dusts himself off and walks out the door next to him.

[F] I am in a large store sort of like a WalMart.  I must work there as I am gathering things that are out of place and tossing them into a cart.  I walk between the racks and notice there is weightlifting equipment in the middle of the store.  It wasn't for sale as it was obviously being used regularly.

There were many more fragments but I can't remember them now.  Yesterday morning I woke up so dehydrated my back was sore until I had rehydrated.  Last night I decided to make sure to drink water periodically if I woke up.  I swear I must have gotten up to pee every 2 1/2 hours though :/  This really fragmented my sleep

Yea could be a good way to get WBTB and try to WILD.

[F] I have hair on my head again, I started shaving my head a few months ago but I don't remember letting it grow back out. I am inspecting it in a mirror and its thicker than it ever was even when I was young.  Not only was it just more filled in but its much thicker darker brown hair when I have finer blonde hair.

[F] I am outside of a building in a parking lot of a shopping center near my parents house.  I am walking to my car and its incredibly windy and cold.  I am wearing a jacket that is catching a lot of the wind.  I decide to see if the wind will push me if I jump up in the air on the next gust.  I jump up and go back a couple feet and land.  I laugh and try again and get pushed further through the air.  I unzip the jacket and hold the two sides out with my arms out stretched like a makeshift wing suit and jump into the air again.  I am picked up and lifted a good 20-30 feet into the air above the parking lot.  I am almost neutrally buoyant in the air as I don't move around too much unless I change the positioning of the jacket flaps.  I see a woman take notice and point at me to a couple other people.  I hear one of them say "Look a human kite!".

[D] I am at a movie theater sitting in the audience, the lights are still on but something is playing on the screen I can't remember.  There aren't normal seats in this theater but different levels that you can just sit on a padded floor any way you would like.  I'm sitting with a woman I don't recognize now but during the dream she was very familiar.  She was light skinned black with beautiful full hair in short springy curls.  I remember sitting with our legs interlocked and feeling the warmth of her smooth legs against mine and an overwhelming feeling of comfort and love.  I don't remember having any conversation but shes smiling as am I.  Next thing I remember I look to the aisle and see an older black man standing with a stern scowl on his face.  He grabs her arm and pulls her to her feet as he hurriedly escorts her to the exit of the theater.  I catch up to him and hear him say something along the lines of "You know you weren't supposed to be here!" to her.  They stop in the middle of the open concessions area and he tells her to go wait in the car. His posture relaxes as she walks away and he turns to me shifting from anger to a more subdued tired concern.  I tell him "Hey I'm sorry I didn't know".  He responds "Yea I know, shes just not supposed to be here and she knows it.".  I lose recollection here.

Human kite sounds fun. I need to try that sometime. It will probably be more effective than forcing myself into flight.

[F] I'm in a building with low ceilings walking through a tight hallway.  I'm on my way to meet up with an online fitness person Scooby.  Hes going to work out with me and a couple other people at the gym in this building.  As I pass a room I see kids sitting in long carts all lined up as if they are about to race.  I don't think anything of it and pass by.  As I round the corner a young boy about 12 runs up and tells me they are about to start the race and I need to come help them win.  I tell him I was going to meet up with Scooby and I can't.  He explains they need a strong rower so I figure it would make an ok workout and tell him.  "Alright I'll row the hell outta that thing!".  I follow him back to the room with the carts and see each long cart has 4 wooden seats some of which have a metal bar.  I assume the bar is what you pull in a rowing motion to make the cart move.  I'm standing next to the cart as I see Scooby pass by in the hallway which makes me reconsider rowing for the kids team.  I lose recollection before I make a decision.

There were more fragments but I can't remember them now I'll edit this later if they come back to me.

N in this piece doesn't mean "nicotine", it's just the first letter of my sister's name...

We don’t know how to get to our next class, so I ask N to help us.  T and M are with her so they come along.  All three of them already took the class.  They bring us to a fireplace.  There is a book on the mantelpiece.  Flipping through it I see a page on how to catch salamanders.  Something about putting them in a specific jar that the professor will supply.  We open it to the first page, and it opens a portal through the fireplace.  We have to crawl through.  There are five of us taking the class, but N, T, and M came with us to help get us started.  I think T grabs the book before we go through?  The Professor is happy to see the three of them again.  Then he asks us to pick which of the other four is our favorite person.  Each of us pairs off except for one.  He is told if he is not someone’s favorite he will have to drop the class, so T steps in and tells the professor he is her favorite person.  I wonder if she has to take the class again now that she has opined, but apparently not.  He turns around and we are in a tearoom.

This is where it goes hazy for me.

The red queen is sitting at the head table.  We pick a seat in the back.  Each table has a miniature grandfather clock as the centerpiece.  I try to read the time but can’t. D’oh! To be fair, I can never read analog clocks, so while this would have been a trigger for anyone else, this was completely normal for me.

The red queen somehow senses that we shouldn’t be there and gets really angry.  All the guests turn on us.  We leave the room and I lose recollection here.

I’ve gone back through the portal, and I’m in a room with a bunch of clocks painted on the ceiling.  They are numbered 1-24.  I decide, to get everyone else back, I have to go back and set the clocks in the other rooms to the times shown on the clocks in this room.  I try to take pictures of the clocks but there is an angry mob that prevents me.

I find a salamander.  I don’t have any of the bottles with me, and none of the other students are with me anymore either.

There’s a big battle in the corner store.

N got a tattoo that looks like beads sewn into her leg.  Where the beads would be are actual piercings.  It looks really cool.  Dad sees it and is fine with it, but I don’t show him my small triforce tattoo because he would not be okay with it.

I’m in the corner store, helping the stock boy clean up before closing.  He brings all the sale clothing items in, and I sort them onto racks according to shorts or shirts.  That’s all they sell, except for wedding dresses.  I don’t know where those go, but I find a rack with other dresses and put them with the others.  Some accessories come in, too, and I find a shelf for those.

This is going to be a quick write up. I took 12 mg of G because I was desperate for some lucids last night. It worked. A little too well. They were all long, very fantasy, distracting lucids that were impossible to remember well by the time I finally woke. But ... I guess I had a few lucid dreams. Basically, I just need to re-focus and re-sync here. It is what it is.

New Car in the Snow (DILD)

I'm in our brand new SUV that we just bought last week. Even though it was purchased in mid summer, I find myself behind the wheel in fairly deep snow conditions going up and down hills. I realize I'm dreaming and decide to have some fun with it. Testing the new cars AWD capability set with reckless abandon, with no real possibility of smashing up the new vehicle. I soon lose this dream.

Flying to the Water (DILD)

I've long forgotten how I got to this point in the dream. But I am lucid and mentally reviewing goals and tasks. I recall my desire to get to my target beach and enter the water. However I am not at a location that would facilitate that scene transfer. I decide to simply leap in the air. As I gain altitude I realize that there is a large body of water ahead of me, reminiscent of Lake Michigan. When I look behind me there is a small body of water which is a small bay off the main lake created by a good sized strip of land delineating the two. I decide to fly toward the smaller body of water. As I approach it, it's beautifully clear and it's obvious that the easiest and most direct method of entering the water is just to dive bomb in. So I do. When I surface, I just back float and enjoy the sensations. Especially the feeling of energy entering and leaving my body at all points from head to toe. Very blissful and surreal. I lose this dream.

Random Sex (DILD)

I find myself in what appears to be a rather old and broken down factory. As I walk around the place I realize that I'm dreaming. I search around for something, anything of interest. Eventually I find a few people and some male/female bathroom choices. The notion of finding an attractive DC in the ladies room comes to mind. And becomes rather overwhelming. So I decide to pursue it. As I walk in there is one very hot gal who warms up to my advances immediately. But she's down on the idea of doing it in a bathroom. So we exit, and find a more appropriate spot and get to business  .

Quote from: Boadicea on July 29, 2015, 12:55:38 PMQuote I had tried it a few times in my youth.  After experiencing how shitty it leaves you feeling afterward and the cost of the stuff it was totally not worth it and haven't since.  It would be nice if more people in the world had your common sense.

Yea I experimented a lot and never understood the appeal of cocaine.

I had my first lucid in quite some time early this morning

[L] My recollection of the previous fragment before becoming lucid is gone now.  I remember being in a small room with nothing else in it other than a small group of people.  It looked like either an underground basement or bunker.  I'm walking and talking to someone I can't remember about what but the last sentence was.  "When you're dreaming and you realize your dreaming and become lucid."  In the middle of the sentence I stop walking and look around as I realize I am dreaming.  I tell the guy I'm talking to "Like right now we're dreaming!  Normally I would go around doing crazy stuff I normally wouldn't in real life but this time I wanna see where the dream takes us."  He didn't say anything and I look around the room again.  I see a single door in the corner behind me and walk over to open it.  I do and it leads outside to a windy brown haze.  I look down and there is no ground we seem to be in the middle of the air and the haze was so thick I could only see maybe 30 feet out.  Being the only exit I knew I had no other way to go but was quite hesitant as sometimes high flights can wake me up with a falling reflex.  I breathe and relax knowing I wont fall if I don't freak out.  I step out into the wind I quickly spread my energy throughout my body and take control of my flight.  I turn back around floating a few feet away from the door.  The group of 7 or so people I was with are gathered at the door looking a little lost as to what to do.  I ask "You guys remember how to fly right?"  None of them answer.  I fly back to the door and grab the hand of the guy at the edge of the door.  I tell them to relax and hold hands and slowly fly away from the door.  As I do the people come out one at a time all holding hands like a chain.  I get the thought that my energy was flowing from me through all of them to help them fly.  We all descend into the haze and I see the floating bunker disappear to my left.  I look down the chain of people and remark how it almost looks like a flock of ducks or geese.  I look down and we don't seem to be getting anywhere until we finally get below the haze revealing a rainforest below.  We are still probably a few thousand feet up which is much higher than I normally can fly without freaking out.  I stay calm as we all glide over the landscape.  As we get closer to the trees I can tell they aren't anything that normally grows on earth they looked like plants from Pandora the planet in Avatar.  We fly over one area that was set up in an obvious grid pattern as if it was cultivated.  We finally get to the ground gliding to a gentle landing. I do remember walking around a bit on the ground but I guess I lost lucidity as I lose recollection here.

[D] I am outside on a balcony of a restaurant about 2 stories up.  The balcony overlooks a busy street.  I walk over and stand on the railing looking down and get the idea that I could fall and stop myself before I hit the ground.  I hear someone behind worriedly tell me to get off the railing.  I tell them I'm fine and I bet them I could stop myself just before I hit the ground.  A few more people have turned to see what was going on and I stand balancing on the railing facing toward the street and lean forward.  I fall parallel to the street face first and 6 inches from the pavement I stop myself in mid air.  I stand up and look up at the people on the balcony and they're all frantically chattering about what happened.  I'm curious if I can still do it without as much distance to take control of my flight.  I jump into the air stretching my arms and legs out and fall face first toward the pavement again.  I'm able to harness the energy in my body originating from my heart chakra instantly surrounding my body stopping me inches from the ground.  The feeling was similar to two like poles on a magnet getting close.  I stay floating a few inches off the ground arms and legs spread and notice I'm slowly drifting to my left like an air hockey puck floating on a plume of air.  I laugh and look to my right and tell a person on the sidewalk to give me a push.  They ignore me and walk away.  I get back up and think about how I may be able to stop myself from hitting the ground but if it were a high enough fall I could still end up hurt from the abrupt stop.  I decide I need to try a decelerating stop instead of an abrupt stop.  I try it a few times and it required a little more concentration to slowly stop myself rather than an abrupt stop. I lose recollection here.

[F] I am walking along a street that looks like one that runs in front of my old middle school.  Where the football field was now has playground equipment.  I make my way to one of the playground equipment and see a woman sitting on a merry go round writing in a notebook.  Behind her are children playing on some other playground equipment.  I assumed she was their teacher or something.  I look closer and its an old friend M.  She is writing intently in the notebook and doesn't notice me.  I lean downward and look her in the eye and say "Hey M!" with a smile.  She looks up from her notebook with a solemn expression and says with spiteful intonation "Hello misery." and looks back down at her notebook.  I'm a little taken aback and walk way without responding and go over to a near by climbing frame.  I nimbly swing and climb my way to the top of it and sit squatting perched looking at her feeling defeated.

So it seems like lots of personal stuff is back on track. The Job. New car purchase. I've been writing and recording music. House projects. Dog is hanging in there. Now I just have to get my crap together with my lucid dreaming. This one was not stellar. But I did manage to change a scene from general void space which is something I had never really done before. In that way anyhow.

But the goal has to be to enter the water, commune with the larger consciousness system and just relax. And perhaps transmit love and entropy reduction per my progress in other areas of life. Perhaps contributing to the system in general.

Boxed In (DILD)

I am in the back seat of my Jag with two other people up front. I'm studying the dash board and realize that the dials and console are not quite correct. It dawns on me that I'm dreaming. Unsure of the best approach here, I decide to float up and simply pass through the roof of the car. I continue to float up and the scene begins to fade to voidspace.

From there I remember by goal to get to the beach. I have not successfully been there for some time and I'm quite determined. So I reach out for pebbles and water and sense the IDENT of feel of this location. Before long I get the tactile sensations I'm looking for and splach some salt water in my face and mouth to confirm it. As the scene manifests I am actually quite a ways from the water. A good hundred feet or so on a shallow incline upwards. I gain my composure and make my way to the water. It's quite shallow and low tide and instinctively I reach out for my guide, which was not part of the plan per say. I don't get a response. I walk in deeper and try the same. At some point rather quickly a new scene forms around the water. A small room with cubby style cabinets. I reach into the cabinet and my hand is met with hers. I pull her out and she floats horizontally out of the cubby. She then slowly re-orients herself vertical. She looks a bit different but her IDENT appears correct. I say something to the effect of "who or what are you?" but the scene becomes unstable and I lose the dream.

Meet Tommy at Yankee Stadium? (DILD)

I'm in my car driving into NYC. I am supposed to rendevous with my Uncle Tommy at some location and then we are planning to meet at a Yankees game. I am nervous for a few reasons. I am unfamiliar with the roads, and furthermore I stand out in my car as it's a bit nice for the neighborhood. I probably stand out for other reasons too. Regardless, I continue to drive. I wonder if it would be better just to meet up at the Stadium as I already have my ticket in hand.

There is a scene change and I now find myself alone at a table at a half way decent restaurant. A female hispanic waiter takes an order and as she walks away I recognize the scene change situation and realize that I'm dreaming. The waitress was pretty hot, in some slinky tight see thru pants and I can't help myself. I get up and make a move on her, but don't get very far before waking.

My only comment here is in relation to the first dream. By trying the same thing again instinctively, I was literally boxed in by a room. analogous to how I am boxing myself in with these unfocused efforts, trying the same stuff over and over. I need to be better focused, and implement my plan much more cleanly.
