A Few Of My Most Intriguing Lucid Dreams

One morning around 2005 I woke up in utter amazement about a dream I had. It seemed that I had woken up and was conscious yet I remained there in the dream realm, I could do what I wanted and i had a blast! I don't quite remember today what that dream was about but that dream was the first in a long journey of nightly lucid dreaming.

There wasn't much information on the internet back then about lucid dreaming but there was enough for me to figure out that it was in fact a lucid dream that I had. I was very good at meditation and so I figured I'd meditate on it to see if I could induce more lucid dreams. It worked, and I lucid dreamed every night for several years thereafter. I don't meditate much at all these days but I do still lucid dream around 3 times a week or so. Now I will tell you the top two what I feel is my most intriguing lucid dreams.

Learning to fly was tricky at first but i got it down pretty good after a week or two. Flying was and still is my favorite thing to do while lucid dreaming. I began to wonder if this flying thing was a deeper repetitive dream concept. My top two dreams have to do with me flying.

Year 2011-
One day I was thinking about what I wanted to do that night once I entered my lucid dream state. I had decided that I wanted to fly into space and fly to the moon. Once I reached dream state I remembered what I wanted to do. It was late afternoon in my dream, the sun beginning to set. I was in some unknown city. Population perhaps 100k. I willed myself up high into the sky, the people roaming the streets began to appear as small as ants. Then, quickly the buildings grew smaller and I was able to see the city almost in its entirety.

Suddenly an orange haze buzzed all around me flowing quickly downward. I couldn't tell if I was still going up so I willed myself upward once more. After what seemed to be about 10 seconds or so I shot out the top of the clouds and I can see them going down below my feet very fast. At this point I was high enough that I could not only see the entire city, I could also see several other surrounding cities. It was getting a little dark by now and I could see city lights.

Now this is the part I find intriguing. After a few moments of looking down as I flew up higher and higher very fast I looked straight in front of me. It was so strange, the clarity of this dreamscape was astonishing. However it went completely black after a certain point. Sharply black, no fade or anything. I turned to my right, left, behind me and it was the same, in a nice circle surrounding me. Blackness.

It's hard for me to judge just how far it was but if I had to guess I'd say it was perhaps a 50 mile radius. I was so intrigued by this that I had forgotten my task of flying to the moon and my excitement and astonishment awoke me from my dream.

Now, this next lucid dream blows the last one out of the water. This lucid dream happened three or four weeks ago.

Again I was in another strange city when I became lucid. So I flew up into the sky about 500 feet then asked my consciousness to show me something amazing as I turned a 180. The city became beautifully crisp and all the buildings were impeccably white. Buildings of all shapes and sizes.

I took a pause and meditated within this dream and concentrated on building up my willpower. Then after a moment I willed myself upward as hard as I had ever willed anything. The city quickly fell beneath my feet but this time this city didn't seem to have an end. There weren't other surrounding cities, the landscape seemed to be one huge brilliant white city.

I kept willing myself hard upward and a feeling of pure bliss came over me for a moment or two rushingall throughout my body. Eyes still open I see the city in front of me, it seems I had rotated forward slightly and was flying backwards. I watched the details of the massive white city blend away into one solid white wall.

Looking to either side, up and down all I could see was a massive bright white wall. I continued willing myself hard away from this wall. Eventually I began to see curvature at the edges of the wall more and more. Then some color in the wall, maroon. Still flying away I notice the color in the wall formed some sort of symbol. A maroon colored symbol. It was very generic and plain. The shape of it reminded me of the knight's profile in chess.

I looked left and right and I could see that the curvature of the wall had become more extreme and that the wall was a ball. Still willing myself away then looking around once again I seen more white balls, each with their own maroon colored symbol on it. They looked like billiards balls. Then I seen that they were all in a cardboard box of which had some other junk in it.

I was high enough now that I could see that I was in someone's bedroom. I could see all the junk all over their floor. It smelled of body oder and cigarettes. I could see the couple laying on their bed asleep. They were an old couple, covered in only a sheet.

I decided to exit as quickly as possible so I simply flew through the walls. The next room was similar to the last one as far as the junk goes but didn't smell quite as bad, I kept moving. Then, the smell of mold and something flapping in my face so I altered my trajectory slightly, turned, looked and realized I was going through their shower curtain sideways. I turned and flew through their closed bathroom window and into their front yard.

The neighborhood looked average, maybe a little on the poor side. I was in awe at what the F just happened. I'd had enough for the night and decided to go ahead and let my subconscious take the helm.

Yes. When lucid dreaming I am aware that I am dreaming. I can do anything that I want. One time a police officer arrested me for no reason, I was so confused by his actions that I realized that it was a dream while riding in the back of his car toward the police station downtown. Once we arrived downtown another officer joined the first officer and they escorted me handcuffed, one on each arm down the downtown sidewalk toward the jail.

I told them that I was God. They laughed and said "prove it then". I said "I will disappear right out of these cuffs right now" they laughed. So then I did just that, and reappeared just around the corner of a building nearby. I peaked around the corner and watched them as they were standing there shocked and amazed staring at the empty handcuffs laying on the sidewalk.

I stepped out from behind the corner and they spotted me. They immediately drew their weapons and began firing at me. I knew I was dreaming but the dream was so vivid that it scared me for a moment and I ran back behind the wall. Once I regained my composure I stepped back out, took all their bullets that were hitting me and just stood there till their clips ran out. They were once again shocked. Shocked that I was standing there still alive. I just laughed at them and spit all their bullets onto the sidewalk at their feet in one big breath.

I can't have nightmares anymore. If I am ever attacked I will take over the dream and destroy everyone in any manner I wish.

Now days I usually don't go lucid unless the dream narrative starts to take a turn I don't like. Usually my dreams are like a movie that I am watching without my participation. Sometimes I disagree with a decision one of the characters makes so I'll take over as them and change the narrative. Then back to merely observing.

Interesting dreams, thanks for sharing.

How do you get such a vivid/lucid dream life? Im interested in my dreaming mind, but hardly connected to it.

If you wake up with an alarm, set it 15 minutes early. Take that extra 15 minutes to recall as much of your dream as you can. Go over it repeatedly in your mind. Also write down as much as you can of what you remember.

Doing this will exercise whatever mechanism that allows you to remember and you will be able to remember more and more as the weeks go by. And you will also begin to be able to recall multiple dreams you had throughout the night.

Once you achieve this there are a few methods that you can utilize that will help you go lucid. The easiest one is to look at your palms in your dream when you are asleep. It is very likely you will become lucid right away once you look at your palms in your dream. In order to remember to look at your palms you should make a habit of looking at your palms often while you are awake.
