Awesome! I just wrote my intention for this night:
SPOILER - Click to view
I want to become lucid tonight, and have a really long lucid dream. I want to be the big 12 meter long shark that I heard about today, that’s still form the time of the dinosaurs. Then I transform into a goddess, swimming on the surface level, a huge giant appears to be in the water too, and lifts me into the sky by taking me in his hand. I’m now in the clouds. It’s not cold at all, the clouds actually feel fluffy. There are little wind nymfs flying around. One lands on my hand, she’s very tiny and amazingly light and beautiful. Then she flies away again. The giant then puts me down on a floating island in that sky. There are people there in 18th century clothes, I’m wearing a beautiful and comfortable dress from that period myself now as well. I am wearing a wig as well, long red curls. Then I meet a very handsome young man who appears to be a magician. He waves his wand and suddenly I’m tied up against a pillar in a courtroom. The judge is a horse. And the witnesses are the famous Jesus Christ and the very 800 years old Babaji. The horse says I’m accused of being awesome, and asks me if I plead guilty. ‘I’m not sure’ I reply. Then the horse asks Jesus Christ to tell us what he has seen, and Jesus Christ says what greatness he observes within me that makes him think I’m awesome. Then Babaji is asked as well what he thinks. Christ and Babaji engage in a conversation with me to help me understand my own greatness. When the conversation comes to an end, the magician, who had been sitting in the audience, comes up to me and takes my hand to bring me to the next place. We then suddenly are in a dollhouse, I’m very small, the size of a doll. There are even inanimate dolls there. The magician and I play around in the dollhouse, we both love each other’s humour and make each other laugh a lot. In the garden of the doll house there’s a boat, and we decide to steal it from the doll owner. We sit in it, and the magician snips his fingers, and suddenly we are on the boat in a completely orange / yellow passion fruit juice ocean. Then the large 12 meter shark appears. He has been drinking so much sweet juics that he has become very sweet and non-hungry himself now. He just wants to play with us, and bites the boat we’re on in two parts, we sink, and the shark plays around with us until we wash upon the shore of an island nearby. It’s a beautiful island with great blue beautiful birds on it with gold in the feathers, singing all their own beautiful song, but in harmony together. One birds comes towards us, and invites us on her back. We sit down, and she takes us on dreamy ride while the sun is setting. The birds keeps flying towards the sun and in the end flies right into the sun, where we enlightened by it’s radiant bright warm light. All of me and the story dissolves, and I just become light and remain in this bliss for the rest of the dream.
I wonder… do you still earn points if you fulfill this week tasks from the first week?
Finally! My dream recall is working again & to make things better I had a lucid dream this morning—! But, sadly I forget about the challenge & didn’t saw any of the tasks either!
(I mean I saw the sea but I was walking by the shore so I don’t think that counts lol)
Hey I finally ate something in my dream! It was a large cone made of liquorice and I think it had blueberry ice cream inside? And a pink, soft cookie on top. Tasted great! I was not lucid.
Dreams haven’t been too interesting or well recalled, so you won’t find any new posts in my DJ. Maybe tomorrow.
Had a non-lucid where I’m on a small boat, on the ocean, but close to the coast. Experienced a tsunami and two tornadoes, but nothing sank my ship, unfortunately.
Here I end up in the sky and then in the ocean. Also, saw the people of Atlantis wearing 18th century clothes similar to what I’d googled for in prep for this week. Tried to bold the relevant stuff, but it doesn’t show up that clearly.
I’d hoped to get on a frigate or similar ship to the ones from Master and Commander series of books, or Hornblower, even though that’s 1800- Napoleonic era, but the ships would have been built, or probably the same design, as ones from the 18th century.
Probably the same thing that makes urinating off the 40m tower so fun! ( I train soldiers how to abseil, we have two large, 40m high towers in one of our training areas, it is a long walk down to the bottom and back up again, and it holds up the whole process to do it that way, so we just wait for when no one is at the bottom, and then make it rain!)
I would like to claim the following points please:
1X Short Lucid
(all non-lucid tasks)
Be in the dark
Be in a river
Fall down
See people dressed in 18th century clothes
Hi everyone. I’m new here and I have a question about the WILD method to becoming lucid. Do I go through the steps of the method with my eyes closed or open? This may seem as a dumb or obvious question, but I am new to LDing and I’m unsure. And I’d like to ask what method you find to be most effective and if I should try a different method over WILD. Thanks for your help in advance!
Welcome to the forum newman! You are currently in the Lucidity Challenge thread, which is not quite the place for your question You can create a topic for it in the Quest for Lucidity part, over here: ld4all.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=22
@Arial, Yes - you do still earn task points for each of the past weeks. The only difference is that you’re not able to score the early bonus for that week once it’s over. (But you already got that one, so it doesn’t make any difference for you).
When you complete tasks from two different weeks in the same dream, you score the combo bonus.
@Ladi Yomi, I assigned you points for a short LD. Let me know if it was a different length! (You can find the measurement for that in the first post of this challenge, under the scoring section.)
And congrats!
Had fun reading the mermaid story of Obsusc8
@GenhisKhan, Wow, congratulations on completing your quite extensive personal task - and so soon! I’m curious when you’ll find the Muse
Your comment about the famous person made me realize the task was kinda vague, so I changed it into ‘meeting a famous person who has passed away’ meaning you completed it! I also rewarded you points for most of the tasks you mentioned - and for the Monthly LD4All quest.
[i]You are on yet another travel to the other side of the ocean, when you spot a bird flying towards you. As it comes closer, it appears to be a messenger hawk. You open the letter it brings you, which tells you that although you, and all the other Dream Heroes, have been travelling through Gulliver’s story - none of you have seen a sign from the Muse.
‘Its time to move on to your next story,’ states the last line of your letter.
‘But what story?’ you wonder.
Then you notice something else is included with your letter: a bar of chocolate. You are a bit surprised but quite hungry too, so you open it.
What’s that?
There’s something shiny inside.
It almost looks like… gold.

Non-lucid dream in which I meet the “space jockey” from the sci-fi horror movie Alien.
I claim the points for:
See a giant
See someone who is more than a hundred years old. (The plot of Prometheus implies that he is at least that old, I think).
(I’m not sure if this site would consider it acceptable to link to H. R. Giger’s concept painting for the space jockey … but I know many of you have seen Alien anyway).
Mid-length WILD this morning LINK TO DJ
I am on a stealth / infiltration mission in the jungle
Close to the end, I shrink myself to ant-size, so two people were looking to me as gigantic
I am not sure this counts for “See a giant” / “I am smaller than his hand”
