Share your first lucid dream, or your funniest!

[nin64]

I done WILD unintentionally.
So I was in a room, walking around, so this is Lucid Dream.
Too real that I thought I was sleepwalking in real life, and I have sleepwalked before.
Long story short, I tried my best to wake myself up.
Urghh... feel like a total idiot.

First lucid dream of any length:

I met this fellow in my dream, and realized I was having a dream. Since hey, it's my dream, no consequences whatsoever, I decided that we should get our freak on. And so we did.

Some time later - within a month (that is my turnaround with this kind of stuff) - I met him.

No, really.

I ♥♥♥♥♥ you not. I met the guy from my dream. He walked up to me at a bus stop outside our school (he was also a student there) and started talking to me.

We dated for about five months.

[pyrogen]

What is the number of us that get our freak on in our lucid dreams?

We realize there are no consequences, it's a dream, and so we go and have sex?

Is there anything ELSE fun to do in a lucid dream? LOL.

For as long as I can remember I have always had very real and vivid dreams. I pretty much got use to those and never really knew there was anything odd about them until I got into my teen years & in conversations with girlfriends learned that not all people dream the way I seem to. These dreams do not bother me for the most part, on occasion I will experience “nightmares” but not often.
What I seem to have the most trouble with and stay confused about is the flashes of images that come to me just as I am starting to nod off. They are always random and don’t seem to make any sense to me at all.
For instance just last night when I laid down and started to doze off I had a flash of a house clear as day and it was on fire and then I open my eyes. I have had everything from burning houses, car wrecks, peoples faces that I do not know and have never seen before in my life to some very odd images like seeing a two young men holding my son up against a fence and punching him.
I don’t understand these flashes at all and I have talked with several of my friends and no one seems to know what I mean. It’s not a dream, it is just a flash of images and when I say flash I mean very fast. I open my eyes in panic sometimes and have this overwhelming sense that I have to do SOMETHING FAST. Then I toss and turn and finally go to sleep and have a dream that is no where even close related to the flash I had seen. I hope someone out there can give me some insight into this.

I had a couple lucid dreams when I was young, around ten or eleven years old. I also had one later in my teen years that turned out pretty much exactly as you'd expect. I don't know that I've had any since, though.

However, what do you call this?

Awhile back, I had this dream where I found out that certain musical notes were good and certain others were evil. I'm a musician, so this was important to me. I know that B-flat and E-flat were notes that brought joy and light and goodness, but F-sharp was a bringer of darkness and negative energy. I had to fill my life with "good" notes and work to eliminate the "bad" ones. I would have to watch chords, too...D major was iffy territory, with that big F-sharp in there, defining the chord. B-flat major (and, oddly, its moody cousin G minor) was an especially powerful force for good, and E-flat major seventh was a joyful, playful chord that brought laughter and light.

So far, a standard music nerd dream. Here's where it gets weird: at some point, the situation in the dream turned dark, and I began to sing a B-flat note to myself. I felt myself surrounded by light, and the light began to push away the whatever-it-was that had been closing in. I closed my eyes and kept humming that magical note.

I woke up to find myself actually humming a note, the dream fresh in my mind. I do not have perfect pitch at all, but I had to try it...I leapt out of bed, still humming that note to myself, and ran into the other room, where my guitar was. I was humming a pitch-perfect B-flat note. The guitar was tuned correctly. I checked it out.

I don't often remember dreams, but this one has stuck with me. I've come to think it had to do with positive and negative thoughts and people, and that waking up singing a perfect B-flat to myself was just a little extra confirmation that the dream was aligned with Truth.

[MaxCfood]

So, I had my first lucid dream about a month ago. I was at this party and then all the sudden I realized that I was dreaming... All I can say is that that was my best lucid dream ever..

[votoshka]

My first lucid dream (well the first I can recall) was quite funny, simply because I was trying to sleepwalk!

I would have been about 7 at the time, and was sleeping in my parents' bed (I may have gone there during the night I think). Anyway, I was REALLY concentrating on sleepwalking as soon as I got to sleep... I focussed on this with all my willpower until I fell asleep.

And sure enough, as soon as I went to sleep I thought, "Cool I'm asleep... now I'll get up and sleepwalk." So I got out of bed and walked across the room to the door, all the time thinking, "Yay, I'm really sleepwalking!" I can't remember what happened in the rest of the dream, but I do remember waking up and telling my mum I sleepwalked, and of course she told me I hadn't moved

Years later, when I learned what lucid dreaming was I realised I'd actually had a lucid dream.

Incidentally, I find the easiest time to lucid dream is when I am really tired. Tired enough that if I close my eyes for just a few seconds I'll go to sleep. What I'll do is I'll lie there, wait to fall asleep and then to test whether I am asleep or not I will lift my arm. If my arm lifts easily, then I am asleep (because otherwise I'd have the weight of the covers on my arm). The interesting thing about these dreams is I am able to continue my train of thought from wakefulness to sleep, which usually doesn't happen when I go to sleep.

However, I still am not great at controlling my lucid dreams and can't always make the things happen that I want to!

[Destine4destiny]

My first lucid dream was that I was being chased by something and I realized hey, I am sleeping but awake at the same time. I said gun although it did not appear I was still able to make the handgun movement which was cool to me I told myself I can work on making things appear that's no big deal to me. What really had me in awe was the fact that I was able to control my dream and I was loving it . I've been trying to have a lucid dream again, I almost had it but then something woke me up which took me out of that lucid dream.

[Oxidus]

First lucid dream, probably the first dream I can remember too. I must have been about 7 or 8.

I remember being in a room, sort of like a classroom. There was a bunch of other kids all around and we all had these glowing patches on our stomachs. They were all different colours, mine was orange and looked like a dragon. I guess because it was cool at the time. We were just showing off these designs, and I think changing them.

I can even remember the feeling of being completely trusting of eachother. As if these symbols were somehow fragile and could be broken.

I can't remember much else, it was a long time ago.

[Aldream]

Hi all,

Had many Lucid dreams now, not really by choice, my first one was many years ago as a child, i was in a fight with Freddy Krueger, I realised it was a dream and decided I would have Superman's powers and teach Freddy a lesson, very strange! Had many since, one involving been able to walk through walls.

A question though, when I wake and I am going into lucid dream state I sometimes get a strange feeling where everything seems to shake, the only way to describe it would be the same as what happens in the film 'the butterfly effect', anybody else ever had this happen?

[Tanemon]

Mine was pretty simple and not too exciting, I guess. I was just a boy and probably pretty young because in those days I was still going with my Mom, in the summer time, shopping for groceries and other things. We were living in a small town and there were not many really big stores to do food & household shopping yet, in the town.

Okay. In the dream, my Mom and I were in new, big store with lots of light (bright lighting fixtures) and long aisles. She was pushing a shopping cart, and my Mom said to me, "Isn't this a beautiful big store?" And I replied "Yeah. But too bad it's only a dream." Very soon after which, I then woke up!

Many years later, when I'd read what a "lucid dream" is, I practiced finding my right hand and looking at its palm in my dream. When I succeeded in doing that in a dream, my palm turned irridescent - like blue neon, I seem to remember.

[intj123]

I have had alot of dreams where I could fly, but one time I realized I was doing it again, and started controlling it and doing weird things like going up 600ft into the air and going down real fast and stopping and then flying to places I know, I guess it was like how neo flys in the matrix.

[Beloved]

I don't think that I'd really call this lucid dreaming, I woke up the other day thinking I hadn't been to sleep at all, then I realised what I had been doing had been a dream and I had been to sleep. In the dreams I was at work but all the time I was wondering what I was doing there when I was supposed to be in bed asleep. It never occured to me that I was dreaming.

I only remember one dream that I knew I was dreaming in. I remember thinking that it was a dream and if I wanted I could change what I wanted.

[staysharp]

At the time, I was never aware that I was lucid dreaming, but now I realize I was.

When I was younger I used to have a dream almost every single night in which I could fly. I would simply bend my knees and straighten them forcefully and quickly and I would take off and be in complete control of where I went.
It was brilliant, as I often had nightmares in which people would be chasing me and after running for some time I'd fly away leaving the person chasing me bewildered.
Then one night I dreamt that I was running from someone and decided I'd fly away, I took off and then to my surprise I looked over and the person chasing me was flying right next to me, chasing me through the skies. Out of surprise and fright I woke myself up.
After that I had many dreams in which I would try to fly, but I never could.

Then a few years later I was still having dreams in which I was being chased and I would try to escape by flying but never could. After this happened many times I decided to try and wake myself up whenever I had these dreams instead of unsuccessfully trying to fly. So each time a dream turned into a nightmare I would stop whatever I was doing in the dream and close my eyes really tight and then suddenly open them as wide as I could. 99% of the time this would wake me up immediately and if it didn't I would simply try it again until it did.

I'm not sure if I still have the ability to do these things as I rarely have nightmares or any form of dream that I can remember. But as of a few months ago I've been trying to lucid dream once again.

[OlderWiser]

Gosh, this is an old thread, but what a fun read!

Probably the funniest lucid dream I've had was when I was first learning what was involved with lucid dreaming. One of the things I really wanted to be able to do was ask people in the dream what they were representing, what the symbol meant, etc. I figured it would save a lot of time if I could just ask at the source, so to speak.

In this dream, I was in an airport (a commonly recurring dream symbol) and I was standing in a queue at a ticket counter when I became aware that I was dreaming. I got really excited upon realising I was lucid and when the queue moved up and I was at the counter I said to the ticket clerk, "What does an airport mean?" (in reference to the symbolic meaning of it). She took my ticket and stamped it and smiled at me and answered, "Sorry. Not a clue!" and directed me onward.

I woke up right after that.

I still remember the smile on her face as she cheerfully told me she had no idea...

Wow, that is an AWESOME story

[bluedragon]

I had my first (brief) lucid dream when I was having some kind of nightmare, and suddenly I found myself in a kind of movie theater with red seats where I could see the people responsible for "selling" me the dream. I became conscious and I began telling them I do not want their ugly dream, and it became like a struggle and I kept shouting at them to leave me alone, and then I woke up. I was fully conscious of what had happened, and it felt like I was the one who actually took the decision to reject that dream and wake up.

I never had any lucid dreaming experiences since. That's because I'm afraid of being conscious when I fall asleep, so I can't think of anything related to remembering dreams before going to bed, or it would freak me out. For the moment.

[Liz Caitlin]

My first lucid dream? I realized I was dreaming, realized I could control the dream, and proceeded to shamelessly conjure my biggest crush from high school & make out with him. I also dreamed up a nice landscape of really pretty flowers & walked around for awhile before I woke up.

I'm always very aware that I'm in my unconscious body when I first realize I'm dreaming. First I'm aware of my body in the real world, lying there unmoving, and then I go back to the dream. If I become TOO aware of my body, I wake up.

[dreamlearner]

My dreams are not weird.

I was extemly hungry and looking for food.My grandma baked few indian bread for me then i shifted to another dream.
I was visiting a bread shop(not bakery).People were eating breads with lot of jam and butter.I asked the shopowner "what's cost of one slice?" the shopowner answered " Rs 5 per slice(which is very high,200 gm sliced bread costs Rs 8 andit has 8 slices in it)".
Then dream shifted.I was travelling through train and arrived in old Bombay(which issimilar to downtown New york,london,hongkong).Again i was looking for food.This time i found out a roadside food stall which sells "vada pav" ,hugely popular indian snack food.I asked the person"Is vada pav ready?"He said"No,only pav(which is burger bread but not fried) is ready" Soi went on walking.
If possible tell me dream meaning also

My first lucid dream was during the week of my grandmother's death. I was on a coach going to a strange place, when I got off I saw her, with her husband (who died many years before). I immediately became conscious and said 'you're dead', she insisted that she wasn't but I already knew it was a dream. I then tested myself by trying to fly up high. I did it! However I got to the point where I was looking down at the earth - on Google earth on my laptop, how frustrating - I then lost consciousness.

[Eddy Arroyo]

i was 8 I was being chased by a werewolf at night through a forest and then i was like " hey this is my dream i can do whatever i want" so i made a motorcycle with nitro appear and i flew away laughing.

[mandar2448]

I too have experienced a lucid dream before, this is the first time I have been able to put a name to the experience. I just of heard of it recently.

In my dream I was at some time of family reunion. A school bus pulled up to the front of the building we were at and I got on, but noone would come with me. On the bus there were about 15 total strangers, I thought it was weird because they were all wearing souvenierish looking t-shirts, tan shorts, and no shoes. when I looked down I realized I was wearing the same thingm except I had shoes. There were no seats on the bus, you just sat up against the wall and as soon as I got on the bus took of really fast. I was looking out a window and saw a sign that said "I.D. Change" I looked down and saw that I was morphing into a video game character, same with everyone else, the scenery now looked like a video game scene too. This is where I realized I must be dreaming. When we arrived at our location I discovered it was an outdoor market, when we turned down the butcher's offer for some Ribs, he started chasing us with his big butcher knife. We took of running down the gravel road we had came on, then I saw the "I.D. Change" sign again and morphed back into a human, all of the strangers and market workers dissapeared and I was back at the reunion, when I tried to explain to everyone what happened they didn't believe me and I was getting frustrated, then all of a sudden we are all back on the bus again and I got scared and woke up!

Wow that was long, I should turn it into a short story! haha, bye!

[ChrisG]

My first lucid dream happened in 07. I was in the science building of my old school, and my biology teacher was there. He was possibly the wisest person I had ever known up until then. All of a sudden, I realised that it was meant to be my summer vacation. I went to do a reality check to see if I was dreaming, and got the answer that I was. I shot behind him and strangled him with either my hand or a cable of some sort. I then dived into a vortex that was further back into the building. At that point the dream lost coherence and I lost lucidity.

This actually happened at a time when I'd just discovered lucid dreaming and I was using intention-manifestation in all the wrong ways to try and induce a lucid dream. Well, I was 17 and my head was filled with the idealistic crap of how things should be from TV and the movies

[Nimue]

LOL panther dressed as Weird Al Yancovic??? *wipes tears and tries to stop laughing* That was one good way to begin my day!

Btw I also had one with Condoleeza, the following day I went to the dentist and he told me I had to do 4 inlays. I knew it was a bad sign

I don't remember which lucid dream was my first, so I'll just post the one where I tried to save the world by constructing a giant omelette.

There was a giant meteorite coming towards the earth, but everyone had given up and were sitting gloomily with their families, waiting the end. I ran around, trying to motivate someone, but nothing. I knew I had to do something.
That day I were at my cottage where we had a lot of chickens. So I thought of constructing a giant omelette, which would be shot against the meteorite, slowing it down for enough time. I started my plans: I cleared the field from weeds and hardened it by water and sunlight. I desighned a system of mirrors and lenses to amplify and direct the light. I calculated the properties the omelette needed to avoid getting destroyed (aerodynamic design with holes, metal/polymer percentage, average fiber size/direction e.t.c.) and thought of the components. As it was starting to get cooked I made 4 missiles appear, and tied them to the corners, which I had strengthened. But something in the whole device wasn't right and started altering it with my mind. The time wasn't enough for me to perfect it so the planet was destroyed - but for some reason we all ended up in smaller planets full of grass, flowers, bunnies e.t.c. And everyone was way happier than before. The End!

I have had more than one dream like this that ended the same way, this was just the only one that was lucid... and know what? I have never told the guys. For some reason, I just don't "open up" about this stuff to men... and I really wish I could. I open up about it to women more often.

Precognitive dreams allude to latent psychic skills.

or

I think maybe your manifesting powers are at their peak during your dreams, try asking for things next time.

[Liz Caitlin]

The first (and only) time it happened to me, I was EXHAUSTED. Even giving in to falling asleep felt weird.

Suddenly I was unconscious, yet highly aware of being in my body, lying on my bed. I was both in my dream and conscious, and I nearly woke up - it was a struggle not to. But I got it under control, and as soon as I did, I became incredibly excited as I realized that *I* was finally having a lucid dream and in control!

Me being me, I conjured a pretty outdoor scene with none of the bothers of the REAL outdoors - wind, bugs, etc. - and then conjured a guy I had a major crush on in high school who I never hooked up with. We started making out and it was amazing.

...then I woke up.

Would LOVE to have it happen again but I don't have the patience to do the exercises. Guess it's not really worth it to me.

[SarahLuvzYu]

I can't remember my first lucid dream but I had a funny lucid dream a couple of weeks ago. Be warned it's kinda dirty.

So I wanted to have sex with Chuck Bass (sexy muthachucker) and another chick. But instead of creating Chuck Bass and another sexy chick I created sexy chick with a dick. I eventually split them so I had my Bass and chick but it was pretty funny at first XD.
