Sean (Jason) Dream - December 19th 2011

19 December, 2011
This is from a few nights ago, but is a great example of how movies and media can influence dreams.

    Earlier in the evening before bed I watched an episode of Arrested Development from the third season. The end of the episode looks like this.
   
     A day or two prior I had also watched Jingle All The Way with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sinbad. I was feeling the Christmas spirit :)

So to the dream I had. I remember being in a tall building with large windows. In front of me was a beautiful city landscape. In the distance I saw a "Godzilla" type shadow moving among the city skyline. It seemed very distant so I didn't make any special note of it.

To my right was another large window, but it had a door that led to balcony. There was a woman on the balcony. Suddenly The whole building began to shake and the woman almost fell off the balcony. She slid into a gate that was surrounding the edge and suddenly Sinbad in his "Dementor" costume from Jingle All The Way popped his head over.


Somehow the woman got away, but Sinbad started breaking the large windows to get in. I then ran into a kitchen and started grabbing cleaning supplies and made a reference to chemical warfare. The last thing I remember is sprayign windex into Sinbad's giant eyeballs.

Sean (Jason) Dream - December 12th 2011

06 December, 2011
I'm writing this down a little late so I don't have much to put down.

I recently started watching Caprica which is a prequal to Battlestar Galactica. In the show there is a digital version of their city called New Cap City. When a person dies who is jacked in dies they "de-res" and return to the real world unharmed. In the show their are a few characters who already dead in the real world bu are still existing in the game. So when they die they do not de-res, but simply heal.

In my dream I remember trying to deal with the reality of having multiple bodies. I have no clue what the plot of the dream was. I really only remember being confused and one horrific image of a a few Reptillians eating a girl who couldn't de-res. It was a disgusting never ending feast.

Cody (camera/EFX/various monsters) Dream, June 30th 2011

03 December, 2011
I am at a show with a band who was missing their guitarist, so I filled in rhythm guitar. Danny, (George,) from the back of the room played lead guitar and taught Sean (Jason) how to red and play basic sheet music for trumpet. We all started jamming with this band when Mr. Perkins, a vice principal from high school, showed up and told us to "Keep doin whatcha doin!" Then, everyone was pretty much gone exept for Sean, Danny, myself, and a small group of kids that I met at MCC (Mesa Community Collage.) We were in a big window walled school house on the out skirts of town. Suddenly we heard from a distance a huge explosion, then a few more, silence, then a few moments later...an atomic bomb went off! We were barely far enough to not die, though all of the windoews of the school were busted out. I woke up from my body feeling the stress.

Cody(camera/EFX) "Lucid Minecraft + first person shooter + social justice = best welcome to your birthday month dream ever? Yes." -12/1/11

01 December, 2011
So I am never particularly exited for my birthday,(Dec. 20,) not that I hate birthdays, i just dont usually get hyped for my own. However, this year is different. Today I woke from a particularly satisfying dream. Okay, okay, let me start off by saying that I am an active supporter of the Occupy Wall Street (http://occupywallst.org/) movement, and a frequent visitor of the Occupy Phoenix (http://occupyphx.org/) movement here in Arizona. I was even lucky enough to be arrested and beat up by a group of Phoenix's Finest on the first night of the Phoenix movement... for filming, the farcical amount of police they sent to deal with 50 people saying "we love you!" *More on this at a different time* You now will understand why this particular dream was so sweet. That and the fact that alot of my dreams lately have involved being rounded up into prison camps :/

Any who, so the dream starts of with me in a fresh new world of Minecraft, (dream minecraft is AWESOME by the way,) so I got to work building this castle that I was mostly carving out of a mountain, but something about being so underground in the mystical caves of this wierd mountain castle was really starting to make things incoherent, and a little nutty. So I left the castle, built over the door and started bulding a town on top of the ground this time. Some time goes by and I have a nice little village, with other people, and everyone is happy. Until one of the little boys breaks into the castle that I had closed off. I spawn from my bed, walk outside of my little sponge house, and am immediately bombarded with a mob of angry people, telling me that there son was deranged and it was all my fault! Things get kinda fuzzy here and next thing I know I'm in a present day looking America, but still in Minecraft form. So I spawn from my bed, walk out of my crappy, one bedroom, nether-brick apartment, and get shot at by a sniper! This is where this start getting wonky. As I dodge into a nearby alleyway to avoid getting shot, I bring up an assault rifle with ACOG scope! (I know, video games will be the death of me.) I turn around a corner and BAM! Dead. Excruciating pain...Re-spawn in my apartment, this time I take the minecraft surroundings into account. I look out the window, count blocks to the house I see the gunfire from, then start digging underground. Out of fear for my life, and fear of the painful rebirth thing, I ignore the weird underground vibe and dig up under the sniper, and knifed him. At this point I felt extream remorse for what I had done, and the questioning of awareness really kicks in now. As I go around the map digging and killing all other players I become aware that I am dreaming, at first, I stood still, than, I got shot and it still hurt like hell, so I ran into a building, and threw down my gun, at this point the minecraft and the first person shooter worlds were gone, and my lucid state is fading in and out. I walk out of another door of the building and see a huge crowd of protesters, who were all shouting something that I just understood was a codeword for something, that gave me the feeling of hope in a time of now or never. So I walk to the front of the crowd, (which is at the bottom of a curvy road lined in razor wire fences, that looked like it went up to a corporate remodeled version of an extremely familiar building,) and right as I get to the edge of the people, I see the big gate like doors open, and a ton of riot cops start running down, in huge squads! So the crowd of people started pushing up while the riot cops were coming down, and the whole time everyone was screaming that codeword, and it seemed to make our group bigger and full of hope, so I started shouting also, and as we met int he middle, I was lost in chaos for a minuet, and we were getting pushed down, but as we came to the bottom of the curvy road, I realized that a large number of the riot officers where grabbing abusive officers and arresting them! So abusive law enforcement were being arrested left and right, and there were a group of marines that came out of the building, with blood of what looked like three different colors on their uniforms, and they were holding the doors for another team of military and police personnel that were running inside followed by tons of people with cameras, and now me. We followed the team of marines in to the building and up all of its floors, into the top executive office, (where I now find out we are in a federal reserve bank.) It is here that I discover that this is happening all over the world and they were on live feed to all the city's worldwide, and planning to barge into the security rooms all at once. The security room was a false wall that opened and showed a room sized elevator, we were given the signal, we all step into it. One of the soldiers rifles in the oak desk and finds a necklace, it is a golden owl with ruby eyes. He walks into the elevator and puts it face first into a matching indent on the inner wall of the elevator. The wall doors shut, and we start going down. We get off of the elevator and are led down a hallway lit by torches, and into a humungous conference room, that I recognize as the main great hall of the first castle I built. Here we find a whole slew of financial and political leaders, who are responsible for much of the global crisis right now, and who I will not name, hiding out, and praying to this giant, living owl. At this point, all of them were detained by the soldiers, and put in prisons, that the people have gained control over. From what I remember things were back in minecraft mode by the time, the soldiers had killed the owl and we got back to the surface, everything looked all destroyed, but there was a lot of hope in there air! This lead into some other dreams before I woke up, but I don't remember much more after that. I hope you enjoyed hearing about my birthday gift from the dream world!

Sean (Jason) Dream - October 9th 2011

14 October, 2011
So I had a dream last night where I was hiding from Voldemort. I was waking people up from being tricked into following him. For some reason I had to run through a large group of people to get somewhere and Bellatrix grabbed me and took me to Voldemort. He then tried to cut me with a knife but I pushed his hand away with my foot. Danny was standing there with Ryan (Trombone player from Captain Squeegee) and Voldemort told Danny to cut my throat. Danny lazily tried to but failed. So then Ryan started slowly pushing a large kitchen knife into my heart. I just kept saying "ow ow ow ow"

Sean (Jason) Dream - October 1st 2011

01 October, 2011
             Pretty intense dream last night. I was in a my Grandfather's house in Oregon with a bunch of friends, I only remember one person specifically though. The mood was very low and something had clearly happened. For whatever reason everybody was killing themselves and we were all supposed to, or at least believed we had to.   There was a sense that there really wasn't any other choice and we had pretty much resigned ourselves to this face.
          There was a large pile of guns in the corner but no bullets to use with them. I went outside and decided to lay down in the bed of a truck. I knew that my friend was going to drive it off a cliff and die that way. He came out and told me that he wanted to do this alone and asked if I would leave. I was okay with this and understood so I went back inside. I pondered trying to hang myself and cutting but neither seemed appropriate. I wandered into a the living room and saw a boy and a girl. They had "suicide pills" and offered to give me one. I thanked them and took the pill. I tried to swallow it but had a hard time, a third person then walked in but I can't remember who. I was choking while trying to swallow the pill when I woke up.
    The most unsettling part is that when I woke up I had that strange bubble feeling in my throat I sometimes get  when trying to swallow pills. I'm not really concerned with all the suicide as I know I am in my right mind. I simply find it rather interesting. It was certainty a unique experience.

15 September, 2011
Don't remember much, but at one point I went to my friend Fisher's apartment where he asked me if I was going rappelling with my other friend Ben to test out the new equipment.

The abnormal thing is that when I woke up, I found out that my friend Ben WAS going rappelling today to test out some new equipment he got that I was unaware about...hmmmm.

Sara (Astral Girl) LUCID Dream - May 11th 2011

11 May, 2011
Tonight, I ran into a neighborhood friend. During the middle of our conversation, I realized that I had not seen her in a few years and that we weren't even that great of friends. I suddenly became confused as to why we were carrying on an in-depth conversation as if we had grown up as life-long buddies, inseparable since the diaper days!

I soon though that I must be dreaming... but everything seemed so real! I decided to try a reality check, so I looked at my friend Cydney and announced, "You are a dream character!". She looked highly amused and began laughing at me. Her reaction indicated to me that she was in fact a dream character and I was lucid!

I soon became very excited... which is a good and bad thing! Too much excitement can easily wake you up! Unfortunately I woke up quickly. Danny told me to fall back asleep ASAP and try to return to the same dream. Mission: Failed! Hopefully next time I can become lucid and stay in the world of lucidity to explore the unknown territory of the imagination!

See you in the Astral Planes!!

Sean (Jason) LUCID dream - April 21st 2011

21 April, 2011
I was riding in the Squeegee van and I was sitting in the backseat with a girl I don't remember. I tapped the seat with my finger and somehow I instantly knew I was in a dream. I think I verbally said I was in a dream and got really excited and the girl just rolled her eyes like it was uninteresting. I then told her how it was okay because us being in a dream didn't make it not real and that this was a real place to be.

I don't remember anything after that. I think I wondered about while lucid for a bit, but I don't know exactly. I end up watching a lot of people when I'm lucid. I'm in complete awe at them and their conversations and how much each of one seems to be so alive.

Sean (Jason) LUCID dream - March 9th 2011

09 March, 2011
I only wrote down a few things about this lucid dream, because I woke up in the middle of the night and typed it into my phone.

I'm in a hotel with Victor we realize we are dreaming. Both of us. We leave a crowd of people and find a private corner. We discuss what it means that we are both lucid and try and find something to say to each other when awake to confirm this is happening. We were standing by a pay phone and a toy car tilted on something.

This dream was pretty fucking sweet because it may have been a mutual dream. Sadly victor has very poor dream recall and cannot confirm anything. So this one will remain a mystery!

Sean (Jason) LUCID Dream - Feb. 24th 2011

25 February, 2011
Hurray!

While waiting for my boss to pick me up for a filming job this morning I was able to almost slip into a W.I.L.D.

As I was laying down I began to hear my roommate John's voice. I knew however that he was at the International UFO Conference running sound and was not in the house. I recognized the hypnagogia and attempted to ignore it while allowing it to grow louder.

I started seeing faces fly past me that I did not recognize. I felt like I was falling and I started hearing my own voice saying "open the door".

Now this is SUPER significant to me personally because my past two W.I.L.D. experiences have had a reoccurring theme. Two times I've got to the half state I am about describe but got stuck at a door. Both times I attempted to "phase" through the door.

And finally after the second dream I was like, "Dammit Sean! You don't need to phase through the door, you aren't Kitty Pride. Just stand up and open the fucking thing with your hand!!!"

So when I heard my voice telling me to open the door I was very shocked. I saw a hallway for a brief few seconds but never fully materialized. I continued to fly through the in-between state chaotically.

The unfortunate part about all three of these dreams is that I never attain full body awareness while being out of body. Meaning I don't reach my Astral body. Everything is kind of blurry and is almost foggy.

I remember flying through my star wars posters and oddly thinking that it was strange since I didn't go to sleep in my room, which I did. Near the end of the experience I realized I was in my childhood home that I grew up in. I was with a friend who I'll explain later. But I still didn't have a good grasp on the astral reality so I tried to verbally say, "Increase lucidity" but I couldn't really speak. It was like my mouth was being held shut. I tried a few more times, but to no luck.

After that point my boss called and I woke up.

Earlier in the experience I remember seeing a girl I know sitting by my window on a bed that is not next to my window in waking reality. I've had a few astral encounters with this girl recently and I find it rather fascinating. I sat behind her and touched her shoulder and then she turned and we kissed. This was the most "in body" moment of the experience, which is funny. The kiss was hilarious though, it was technically the second time I had kissed this girl in a lucid dream, but the previous time was in a D.I.L.D and I immediately stopped because the kiss is what gave me lucidity. This kiss was proper strange and was fairly real.

That was as far as that went, I'm not about to just give it all up for free! I remember jumping in my room trying to go through the ceiling but feeling the hardness of it. Also, remember that this wasn't a full on holy fucking shit out of body experience. The difference is a lot of this is more mental and like thoughts with images, rather than direct experience just like you are awake. I couldn't go through the roof and it was really bothering me. The girl and I walked out of my room and that's when I ended up in my old house.

I know I saw and heard more things but unfortunately I had to work and then write this all down so some of it is lost to time. I'll also update on a few dream events that I haven't written about yet.

I have to go now though because I was supposed to leave for the UFO conference to do video, but I just had to get this down. So just know I didn't proof read any of this.

Sean (Jason) Lucid Dream - Jan 30th 2011

30 January, 2011
I woke up earlier in the morning and drove home from a friends house. I stayed up for a few hours and then went back to sleep.

I was dozing off when I heard somebody walk in my room and turn on some music. I figured this to be Danny coming home from church, but when I opened my eyes the music stopped and I knew it was part of a hallucination. I closed my eyes and I began to feel my astral body. I could feel my 2nd pair of eyelids opening up.

I see a figure standing outside of my closet, I think it may be Danny again, but then the figure peels back the curtain and hovers over me. I can see it leaning down and waving its hands in my face. I believe its intention is to help me get out of my body, but it still makes me feel uneasy because it seems as if the figure is really there and hovering over my body, but I feel myself in my astral body.

I open my eyes and see that I am alone, I have sleep paralysis and cannot move my body. (this happened to me last night as well)

I close my eyes and again I see the shadow behind the curtain and then the thing pulls the the curtain back and again is waving its hands in my face. There is something scary still and again I open my eyes.

Frustrated with myself because I know I am so close to getting out of my body and only fear is holding me back I close my eyes again.

For a third time I see the figure behind the curtain but this time instead of coming into my closet I see it walk away, this enables me to finally fall out of my body into my room. Everything is very vivid I walk towards the front door and am compelled to open the bathroom door. A tall kid I went to high school is in there, I have little interest in talking to him and the strange figure directs me back to my room.

I remember seeing a small child sitting in the room, it reminds me of Hara the half cylon/half human baby from Battlestar Galactica. I don't remember anything else.

This was a very intense experience for me because the mysterious figure seemed to really try and get me out of my body. Although I knew this to be a friendly action I couldn't help but recognize some kind of fear. I need to overcome this and become more inquisitive while lucid.

20 January, 2011
Tom is a co-host of the British podcast Get Lucid which weekly discusses topics related to lucid dreaming. We invited Tom and his co-host Joe to send us their dreams so we could upload them along with the cast and crew of Lucidity.

First OBE!!
Too much went on to record the events in exact detail as it remains slightly fuzzy in my mind.

Basically after the podcast I and Joe did with the lucidity guys the idea of astral projection/OBE has been playing in my mind. (Which I go into detail at the end)
I had very little sleep the night before due to a heavy night out with work lot. So I had a nap around 12pm. From there the shit hit the fan!

I tried the wild technique and laid in my bed for sometime before I drifted off to sleep. I have realised this may take several attempts at first and can be time consuming, but well worth it. I actually lost consciousness and found myself dipping in and out of 2-3 small dream sequences that at the time I actual thought were thoughts in my head until I awoke.

After this I began to obtain lucidity as I felt I was much more alert after the previous dream experiences. The first time I remember becoming lucid was for an almost a split second I found myself wearing my coat I instantly knew I was dreaming but felt the dream fade, I tried rubbing my hands together to keep the dream going but I awoke.

I again tried the wild technique however lost consciousness. I then was in the following dream sequence. I found myself in my house in the kitchen I remembered I wanted something to eat so I went to the fridge , on some level I felt I could have been in a dream at this point, I guess just intuition. I opened the fridge to find basically a roast dinner but it was laid out all separately on different shelves in the fridge I was like that is weird. I did a state test of the light switch, and I held my nose and tried to breathe in and out but results were that of waking state. However I still remember thinking this probably is a dream. I then went to get a spoon out of one of the kitchen draws to find the spoons were completely covered in cream, it was everywhere. I was thinking this has to be a dream then I started washing the cream off the spoon and my manager form work showed up to my left. I was then like fuck this. This is a Dream!!!. I still did not feel confident as it all seemed so real and at the time plausible for some reason lol. I decided to do a reality test I did several light switch tests on and off and the light worked as it does in “waking life” so then I was very freaked out and I just wanted to wake up. I’m so used to using the light switch as a reality test it acts as my anchor, sort of like a safe guard to confirm what reality I’m in. When you are 100% sure you’re in a dream and your safe guard fails it fucks you up.
I think this may be my subconscious teaching me a valuable lesson, not to rely on these ‘state tests’. Rather I need to trust my own judgment and use my awareness to guide me.
After awakening in a slight panic, I was like let’s get lucid again. Aging I did the WILD technique however I lost consciousness. This time I found myself outside in a car park after some sort of party. I was with joe and I cracked some awful joke about the Flintstones. At the same time there were four people also leaving the party getting into a car. As I said this joke, the dream characters got in the car and picked it up from the inside and used their feet to run off instead of driving (Flintstones style!). So my thought process of this joke obviously had a reaction on the dream environment. So I was like yea this is a fucking dream. Didn’t bother doing a state test however I retraced my steps which confirmed I was in a dream. My thought process was something like. Ok what was I doing beforehand well I went to bed during the day and I knew I obviously wanted to get lucid. As the scene was night time I knew that I obviously was dreaming as a moment ago it was light inside my bedroom (it’s quite a cool realisation that you remembered wanting to obtain lucidity whilst becoming lucid). So after I went through this thought I opened a door next to me and found myself in my bedroom. I wanted to write down on a bit of paper ‘I’m dreaming’ sort of as an experiment. I wrote it down in block capital letters big and clear as I wanted to see if the writing would remain stable if written so clearly. As I was doing so the paper was crunching up whilst I was trying to write making it impossible to do so (not really sure why the paper did this but it is a dream!). I focused all my attention on the piece of paper and intended it to become smooth again which it did. I wrote the words ‘IM DREAMING’ very clearly. I then looked away and back again and it read ‘IDREAM’ in the exact same font so it did remain much more stable than what I’m used to reading after looking away at text. Having just written this down the thought occurs to me maybe there is meaning behind this. Maybe I don’t dream and a different force is doing the dreaming? I then awoke, not very exciting in terms of my involvement but it made me question things more deeply about the dreaming world. It also now makes me think retracing your steeps is a much better way of testing what state your in rather than a reality test.

Ok so I thought that was pretty mental, also at one point I had a chain of 2 false awakenings which is quite a freaky experience.
I was still basically tiered. I thought why not slap out another dream. Basically tried the Wild again and don’t know how it happened really but I felt my astral body, it started very subtle with my hands. But basically my astral body started to slowly sink into the bed at the start I was just slightly out of alignment lower than my body but still mostly overlaid with it. I basically felt like when you’re on a boat and the sea was rocking me a bit. I wanted to really detach myself from my physical body, it felt more natural for me to carry on lowering my astral body downwards into the bed so I basically intended this and focused on going lower. I think I was about half way inside my bed! My hearing changed to that of when you are under water and I felt pressure in my ears as well. The experience was so alien to me that I was basically shitting myself. So much so that I didn’t open my eyes. In fact I was like shit I want to wake up and get back into my physical body. Which I obviously regret now as I should have taken more advantage of the situation. However at first I was like how the fuck am I meant to get back into my body!! I was quite scared, but I remembered that basically remaining calm is probably the best option so I did and I tried using the same technique of intending myself back into my body which slowly worked. The transition of being re attached with my physical body is too hard to descried as I’m not really sure what happened but I slowly awoke. And was like OBE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the fact that the idea of the astral body had been on my mind is why this happened, as my initial lucid dreams happened mainly because I was reading up on them and thinking about them. Basically this has opened me up to a million questions. Like is this the form we tack when our physical bodies die. I think so!
So this was the most intense nap I’ve ever had! I learnt don’t rely on reality tests, use of retracing your steps to help you decide which state you’re in. Also OBE’S are defiantly real, I never doubted them but I never had strong believes in them.
I know if I was reading this a couple of years ago I probably what have said this is a load of bullshit, I’ve always felt there is something more to life than this physical plain of existence. I know I only left my body for a short period of time and a small distance but fuck me that was insightful!

I’m not sure if I have OBE’s and astral projection mixed up, if they are the same thing or separate. I need to research into it more deeply.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeea!

From zero gravity to the meeting

15/1/2011

I’m in a room with my mum, and I’m opening presents people have left me for some unknown reason. Most of the presents are in one big see-through plastic bag without wrapping paper. The presents are mainly sweets. One off the sweets was a shaped like a long thick piece of spaghetti with a big ball attached to the ends with spikes coming out of it, I see a pair of trousers and a coat hanger in the bag which are not meant for me but have been left in the bag by accident. I laugh and make some stupid joke about how the person who bought the gifts must have been shopping and left some of their stuff in with the presents. I walk into my bedroom which has a slightly different shape to my bedroom in waking life. It occurs to me the absurdity of the situation and realise I’m dreaming! Yeeeeeeeaa!!

I immediately felt extremely confident in myself and trust my own judgment about realising it is a dream therefore I do not perform a reality test. (Up to now I have always perform reality test’s when becoming lucid as I usually still have some uncertainties about if I’m actually dreaming.) I immediately jump through my bedroom window and flew into my garden. The colours instantly changed to an extreme vividness like someone wacked up the contrast to full. I remember trying to fly downwards towards the ground but I kept gaining altitude. This happened to me in a previous lucid dream and I awoke as I lost control/focus. So I focused all my attention on this one pink flower I could see on the ground as I did I flew towards it gaining more and more speed, I then ran on the ground as a sort of landing.

I then remembered I wanted to experience zero gravity. I achieved this simply by shouting Zero gravity, I felt so confident in myself there was no doubt in my abilities. I checked around the garden to see it wasn’t just me floating. Garden furniture and pot plants were floating too. I was like this is the tits! I managed to switch this gravity state on and off a couple of times by simply shouting zero gravity. I’ve never felt this much in control in a lucid dream it felt great!
I decided to fly into the clouds. As I intended this to happen the clouds gathered together and started to come towards me. At this point I felt slightly nervous, due to the huge size of the clouds and the motion at which they were rapidly rushing towards me. The clouds rushed down the roof of my house and I began to fly towards them. At this point I woke up, only to later find out it was a false awakening.

I was in a room desperate to write down my dream in my journal. I was so focused on this I did not recognise how different the room was to my bedroom. Also the room was filled with people (dream characters). I felt these dream characters were my friends or people I somehow knew but not in waking life. I asked a dream character for today’s date. This dream character asked why I wanted the date, I explained I was writing my dream down in my journal and wanted the date to be at the top. At this point word had spread to everyone round the room about what I was doing and laughter spread around the room, almost like they were making fun out of me. Then someone entered the room that had higher status than everyone else. He asked a question to everyone in the room. About half the dream characters raised their arm, I also did so. The dream character next to me who I previously asked for the date asked why I have raised my arm. I replied I don’t know, I didn’t hear the question. The dream character smiled at me with a hint of laughter. I then awoke!

I feel maybe I misinterpreted a new dream scene for a false awakening, maybe somewhere in-between? I’m not entirely sure. However whatever you want to call it I feel the ‘false awaking’ was an extremely significant moment.

Robert Wagoner talks about meetings with a number dream characters to discuss the progress of the lucid dreamer. I feel this was one of those meetings as when I initially became lucid; I noticed a greater sense of confidence in myself and abilities, and had managed to direct my focus to help me achieve what I wanted. Therefore this meeting was probably to discuss my progress in myself. This makes it extremely obvious why the dream characters laughed at me when trying to write out my dream journal as they held a meeting to discuss my progress, “I think” and I was oblivious to the fact I was dreaming, truly showing my naivety of the dreaming world.

However I feel the experience has made me feel more aware, and that I’m on the right path. My confidence in myself has shot up and dream characters are starting to take interest in me!

I’m so juiced up!

Sean (Jason) Dream - Jan 18th 2011

19 January, 2011
I almost got directly out of my body this morning. I woke up after several hours of rest, I'm not sure how many because I didn't move when I woke up. Out of no where I felt my body get very heavy and kind of section to the ground. I then felt as if I was vibrating. Similar sounds to binaural beats were kinda switching on and off in my ear. I tried to focus on not focusing to hard haha and was able to keep it on. I saw more colors and felt as if I was standing instead of laying down. I decided to fall forward and slowly did so. The rush was extremely intense and I saw many images and what seemed like paitings as I fell through whatever I was falling through. I then remember trying to crawl toward a door. I've had another WILD/OBE experience before this where I tried to crawl through a door. Again as I reached the door I tried to phase through it, I feel as though this will confirm I am dreaming. I am very heavy and I can't get through the door.

And I don't remember anything after that. It's very significant to me that I keep trying to get through this door. I think I just need to stand up and take some real control and just use the doorknob.

It also intrigues me because I've read reports and have heard stories that when a person is trying to see their past lives you must enter a door. I've always been fascinated by past lives and it would definitely be something I'm open to exploring in the astral world.

Well, I'm tired and I must sleep in order to grow.

Don't remember much. Dreams have been very chaotic. I think it might have something to do with sleeping in the holodeck...anyways. What I do remember is nothing to crazy just a seemingly typical nerves dream. I was at the first day of rehearsal for a musical I am involved with and everyone else had the whole show completely done rehearsed, blocked, everything. So I spent a good part of the first half of the show desperately trying to follow along and make shit up even though I really had no clue what the show was about. Suddenly at the end of a number, dick cheney came into the auditorium looking for a friend of mine, J-Bob. Out of fear and a sever lack of trust twards government officials, I disguised myself as a woman. It worked. Wake up.

Sean's (Jason) Dream - 1/12/11

I fell asleep last night almost immediately getting out of the shower. I woke up around 4:00 in the morning and moved from the couch to my closet.

I don't remember any single dream in its entirety. I remember being on a plane and it flying really low to the ground almost hitting many poles. Eventually we were flying right over the ocean and I was very nervous about our height. Another passenger calculated that flying at this height at this speed would get us to our destination very late.

Later in the dream I encountered two portals. One was on the floor and one was the exact same size directly above it on the ceiling. Anything that went in on of the portals came out on the other side. It was similar to playing the game "Portal". At some point we slowly lowered Cody into the bottom portal so his feet would come out the other side and he could support himself by standing on his head.

I also remember defending some kind of fortress that was by an Ocean. There was a huge superhero type battle. I remember several points where I was afraid to enter the water or experienced fear when I was in the water.

Looking back over my physical and digital dream journals it is pretty obvious to me that I have associated water with something fearful. Of course this could simply be a fear of water, but I find it more likely the water is representing something.

I had so many dreams last night and kept waking up in a cold sweat, hopefully I can work on becoming Lucid again.

Cody (camera/EFX/various monsters) Dream - 6/13/10

I was at Sean and Danny's, but it was actually my friend Ben's old house. I was out side and looked into a window I have never noticed and I looked in and saw an empty room, so I found the area of the house where the room would be and Sean and I busted out the wall of the closet that was there and we found a secret the secret room. There was a hatch on the ground so we went down the ladder and we were in some kind of storage room where we found a ton of shit, like laser pointers that split into thousands of stars in all different colors. Anywho, we found a door that was metal, sealed, and locked, we thought it might be like a bunker for some government agent. Then I was back in the room with the hatch and we decided to leave. A few days passed by and I took my friend Codey down the ladder to the secret storage room. As I climbed down, a trap gunshot went off and someone rustled in the room. Thankfully I wassnt hit by the gunshot and I continued down, opon reaching the bottom I met a very nice black man who had been in a underground mansion that was behind the metal door and under Ben's house for years. We became friends with him and he gave us a tour of his house.

*NOTE: Here I woke up because my mother called me.

CONTINUED...(I think this all takes place like a decade or so before the first part)
Now I am in a hospital looking at a woman who has a disease that already caused her arm to rot off, and was followed by her skin. As I sit by her I realize that the "medical plastic wrap" was starting to absorb into her open wounds. This is when I got the head doctor (maybe I work at the hospital? I'm not sure..) to finally give a shit about the decaying woman. He said there was nothing we could do for her now, and decided to take her to the underground medical experiment facility to find a cure. So we wheeled her to the hospitals maintenance elevator then rolled her inside. Sitting on a small stool in the large wooden door-ed elevator was that same nice black man from the storage room, exept he looked miserable, and slightly scared of the head doctor. This I just overlooked. I left the girl with them and as the elevator door closed behind me I felt like there was something very wrong like I couldn't trust them. Then I heard subtle moaning and a constant tap tap tap so I flung the door open to see the head doctor holding the deteriorating woman's mouth closed while he watched the black man rape her. Tears we're pouring down what was left of here skin scattered face as I disgustedly yelled at them to stop and the black man frightfully, and very willingly stopped what he was doing and pulled himself out of the woman, as the head doctor lunged towards me so I jumped back so he shut and locked the door. I remember shouting hateful things and then walking through the hospital hallways hyperventilating, crying and stumbling everywhere like I had been drugged with shattered respect for the head doctor and the nice black man. I tried to tell people what was happening but no one believed me. I finally found a flock of nuns who did and they helped get others to believe me, so we went to the elevator and kicked in the door to find that it was no longer an elevator but rather that room that had the hatch in it. I ran into the room and was followed by Jeff Goldblum in character for Jurassic Park, a Greek warrior (also a woman), and some huge hero looking guy covered in stone with a stone weapon (possibly a reincarnated version of an ora from earlier that night) we started down the ladder which was now a seemingly endless staircase with a hateful sense of revenge on our minds. Wake up.
