I've had very few instances of lucid dreaming myself,but here are 2 that contained lucid segments.
In the first,i arrived (start of dream) in someone's backyard,at night,standing on a lawn facing a vibacrete wall.I then felt i wanted to fly,so i
started climbing into the air,like one would climb stairs.At a certain altitude,i went horizontal,and was floating over a dark sleeping
neighbourhood.At a certain point i landed,and was looking up into the sky,where there was something strange.There was a cloud,but in the cloud there
was an orange glow,like fire-reminded me of those launchings at Cape Canaveral,but i could see just the bottom part of the lift-off flames/ignition.I
stretched my arms out to this fire in the clouds,it was orange of course,grey and black too and seemed to be churning-i was really wanting to be
picked up and taken along by whatever the firecloud was-but it did'nt pick me up,and i could not climb the air or fly up by myself anymore.I got the
feeling that it was not time.I found it strange,even in the dream,that this was quite a scary sight,the firecloud,but still i Really wanted to go
along,for it to take me with.I felt very dissapointed that i could not go then.
The second dream left an extremely positive effect on me.
I arrived in the dream on a wooden harbour type structure,at night,in the middle of a dark pitchblack ocean.There were some steps leading from the
jetty into the ocean,and i went down one or 2 steps,then there was a slight windblown surge,and the ice-cold water splashed over me,my face and
body,and my feet got sopping wet,the water was really cold.
I so vividly recall this:I swept my hair out of my face(bit like women do to be sexy:lol
but rather more practically and forcefully,to get rid of
some water,and as i did this i thought to myself:"My God! What kind of dream IS this???"
I then looked down at my feet,which were cold and sodden-to find i was wearing my oldest daughter's shoes(ballet pumps style) and i thought:"Oh
wooow..Anne's gonna kill me for ruining these shoes"
Next thing, i felt it was time to move to another location on this pier/harbour facility.There was a wooden cabin-type structure about a meter+half
right behind me,which i assumed was an office,or such a purpose,and to the side of it,a walkway.I followed this walkway down the lenghth of the
office/cabin building,and came to a part where a longish pier jutted out into the ocean,at the back of the cabin,there was something like a wooden
roof covering part of this pier.Suddenly i felt the need to vomit-but not in a bad way.It was like i just said to myself:"You really should vomit
now" and so i bent over on all fours-and started vomiting-but it was like a controlled vomiting,i could control the time i started.When i decided to
start-gallons and gallons and more gallons of pitchblack liquid,it was a miniature Niagara Falls
Then while vomiting,i realised there was a big book positioned under my body,a quite larger than average book,open about halfway through,i strained to
see what was written in the pages,but i could just see white pages,and with all the hale+hearty joyous barfing and rivers of black liquid falling on
it-it was impossible to see what,if anything,was written on the pages.
That's all i remember of that-but from the moment i woke up the next morning-what a DIFFERENCE in me-i felt tons lighter,like an enormous weight/debt
on me,bearing down on me+my life had been lifted.I felt like i was floating,like literally tons of heaviness has been lifted from me-i felt freer and
lighter and just happier and more positive than i have felt since first memory.
This effect never quite left-even if in the 2 years since,i would still sometimes get bogged down with the occasional worries+strife,depressions or
problems,its like that dream caused a fundamental change in me.
I spoke in another thread of when i get negative/resentful/depressed/ungrateful these days,there's something in me that REASONS with me,and help me to
see things in perspective,and helps me cast off the depression or negativity,even if it does'nt occur instantly,it Always does occur-well,i think it
that is part of what ever strange and astounding and wonderful "shedding of the load' occured in that dream.
