Cool Nani, I need all the positive I can get. I took one of my newly bought herbal pills and did some chanting and at 5 am i was still awake, so I took another pill. I slept until 2 pm today and still feel groggy. Nine whole hours and no dreams to show for it. I did dream though, it was something that seemed really boring and it was being repeated over and over or continuing of the same thing. Like I was trying to figure something out and couldn't quite get it. I sure hope I did though, because i don't want to go through all that crap again. ;D

I'm late posting because I had to get a lot of stuff done and then the server was down for awhile.
I didn't take any herbal pills or listen to a meditation tape or anything, just did a few deep breaths and went to bed. I began dreaming right away and woke up before it was over for some reason, Couldn't remember what the dream was about. Tried that ROAN GROAN chant, but didn't work. I tried to go back to sleep, tossed and turned, couldn't get comfortable. Tried sleeping with head at the foot of bed. I usually sleep left side or on my back, it was no good. Tried right and it was not good. So I tried sleeping on my stomach which I don't like to do anymore since my neg. experience. I was always on my stomach when it showed up and this time wasn't any different. I fell asleep on my stomach and became conscious while asleep and it felt like something was plastered to my back. Electric type sensation all over and couldn't move or make myself wake up. I think I did though and went to the bathroom, but I'm not real for sure, but I woke up this morning with my head at the top of the bed. I was vaguely aware of dreaming off and on, but didn't recall any of them. My back has had a weird sensation all day and I'm not so sure if I am going to go to bed tonight. Even though I had lots of sleep last night and the night before, I feel very tired today. Even though I was frighten with that, what ever it was on my back, I couldn't get woke up. That's the part that scares me the most. I couldn't get woke up. I didn't wake up until noon today.

Sept. 2nd
I didn't want to go to sleep last night resisted as long as I could. LOL!
I had another dream about someone who lived in a Mobile home. I was there visiting with her and another person came to visit and it seemed like I knew her. She had a baby and it was asleep and she came in and laid her baby on a blanket on the floor. After a little while the baby woke and rolled over and sat up. I said, "Wow, I didn't know she could sit up already." Then the baby gets up and walks over to her mom and precedes to talk as well. The baby didn't seem old enough to be doing any of those things.
Then I was in another house and it seemed like mine but not the house I live in right now. There are other people there and my husband. I guess the other people are other family members. My husband criticize me about some little petty thing like he always does when there are people around. I and replied like I always do with, "Oh well it's just a blah,blah, blah. Not as if it's a life or death matter." And I walk away.
I was conscious of dreaming and I guess I should have took control, and made him face the problem of his needing to criticize me in those type of situations. That is what I needed to done in real life I suppose, but I'm not one to make a scene when other people are around. When we are alone he refuses to discuss it.
After that I was back having my sewing business, but I had two other ladies working with me. It was kind of fun designing and making clothing again. That is, in the dream, I would not want to be doing that again in real. In the dream we were making children's clothes, which was a lot more fun than making adult clothing.
These dreams seemed all tied into together, In my opinion very boring and too much like real life.

The last two day 3rd and 4th, I've been aware of dreaming all night or rather the whole time I'm asleep. I don't think I've ever been much aware of dreams I'm not lucid in. I remember dreaming them when I wake up but don't recall what any are about much. In one I was shopping for clothes and there was a couple of things I wanted to order from a catalogue, but the lady didn't want me to order them. She wanted me to buy some that was in her store already. She began showing me the stuff she had hanging there and I got upset and told her if she couldn't order what I wanted then I would go somewhere else to find what I wanted. Dream ended.
Oh I just remembered that before this I was in a class room at school. A girl I went to school with in real, was there. She was also the store clerk. In real this girl was a very nice person and she would not have treated me the way the store clerk did. So I don't know what that was all about.
Anyways, I just been more aware of dreaming these last few days, now I just need to learn to recall them a little better.

hi hello Linda, that about the "walking-talking-baby" really sounds amazing and interesting, the baby for me is a strong symbol by itself, but cant figuere out yet the meaning combined with these advanced abilities.
And interesting too that now you also have been in a school-scene, like several fellows, I think it was Incubus, Existenceisadream and/or Blake. cheers, lgn

Hi Nani, It does seem like weird to me to dream about being in school and it was my old childhood school. I don't know why I'm dreaming about all this long past tense stuff.
Sept. 5th I didn't have much luck with sleep or dreams last night or should I say this morning. I had snoring coming from both bedrooms so I had to sleep on the couch to get away from it. Every time I began dreaming I would become conscious of it, but becoming conscious of it was making the dream to get interrupted. All I have is is a few fragments of dreams. In one there was this little creature thing with blue eyes. This other person and I was doing something, can't remember what exactly. Moving things around or something. The creature was just setting there on a table/counter watching what we were doing. Another fragment later I was getting into a car with Unboundpoet from the PRL forum. I called her Unboundpoet in the dream rather than Heather. That was what cause me to become conscious in that dream and woke me up rather than becoming lucid and continuing with the dream. I don't know why I was waking up everytime I began dreaming. It may have been all that snoring, because I could still hear it from the couch. ;D Maybe I can get in a nap sometimes today.

I did get to take a nap. Actually I've been groggy all day and been taking little short naps every time I get a chance to sit down long enough.
I remember a dream from one of those nap times. I was in this neighborhood looking for where this person lives who I was needing to see, but can't remember why...
I knock on a door thinking it was the correct house, but a lady answered the door, not who I was expecting to find. I started to explained and the lady began closing the door and I turned to walk away. She opened the door back up and told me to come in. I went in thinking maybe it was the right place after all. When I got inside, I tried to explain again, but she handed me some cleaning supplies and told me I could start on this side of the room. Then I noticed another lady on the other side of the room on a ladder cleaning the walls,shelves, and all. I turned back to the lady to explain that I wasn't there looking for a job and there was a ladder there appearing out of no where for me to use. LOL! Next thing I know I was climbing up that ladder and cleaning her house for her and forgot all about what I was there for. I was just happily cleaning and rearranging her things to make them look more pleasing.
At the time I was dreaming I didn't notice, but after going over the dream the lady looked familiar to me. I think she was my rose lady that has been in my dreams several times off and on through the last few years. I posted several dreams about her on the WB forum. The first one I posted about her, I had woke up in her body. She was a crippled lady. Later, about two weeks after dreaming this I saw the same lady in real in Lowe's, in her wheel chair looking at roses. The reason I call her my rose lady is because before that I dreamed about her in her wheel chair outside in her backyard tending to her roses, which she had a lot of. Her yard was beautiful. In the other one I was walking my dog in a dream and somehow something switched and it seemed like I was her and I was at her house and I just walked up and went in. When I got inside, things switched back to me being me again and she was coming into her house and I was caught there. I tried to go out the back, but didn't know where the back door was. There was more to that dream, but I don't remember now what the rest of it was about. It feels like I'm switching parallel lives in the dream state or something, but in too of them we have both been there at the same time so I don't know. I've had feelings of being disoriented for something after all of these dreams about her.

I dream of being in elementary school a lot with all my old school buddies or I dream of living back at where I lived as a child at this trailer park. My dad lived there forever and I lived with my mom somewhere in the same city so I more or less I just visited this place but it was more like home than anywhere else. Lots of friends and good times. I believe I dream of these two things or places a lot because this was the happiest periods in my life. For me elementary school was great. I was very out going and felt so alive. It seems the older I got the more life became mundane and routine. By Jr. High and through high school I hated school and depression really started controlling my life. Sometimes I think when I die my heaven will be like my dreams of my childhood because it was when I was the most happiest.
I go through time periods where I seem to be so aware in my dreams but never become lucid sometimes even thinking to myself that I know I'm dreaming and I can do whatever I want but the dream I'm in is too interesting to want to change it at all or ruin the way it's headed.

Existenceisadream, I did enjoy my childhood school days, because I loved getting to learn and have all those good books to read. I was more the silent bookworm type, on the shy side even. I enjoyed the emotional years of raising my two girls through their childhood just as much. And now I'm past all that emotional hormones stuff and enjoying my grandson's childhood. I've pretty much had a balance of up and downs through all those stages. In real I don't dwell that much on what is past. I probably dwell more on what the crap the future is going to be. Maybe just reading here on the about you youngun's dream life has caused me to dream more about my childhood. ;D Up until about 10 years are so my house and car was always full of children and now I only have my grandson every other weekend. I sure could enjoy a few more grand children, but I guess it just isn't going to be. I have always been very active taking children swimming, skating, sporty stuff, field trips, shopping and slumber parties. Those were the fun days and I guess they are pretty much over for me. Now I'm mostly a hermit, although I do know just about all the kids in the neighborhood and stop and chat with several just about every day when I go for a walk with my dog. ============================================= Sept. 6th I finally got the third chapter read this afternoon. My dreaming was about the same last night. I Remember having lots of dreams, but no recall. I remember a small fragment about this human like, but not human person. I and another person was having a discussion about this human like person's eyes. Also remember that a lot of the dreams are repeats of something I've dreamed before.

I had a bad dream on the 7th and I don't really want to type it out. I haven't been to sleep since. I guess I will try to go to sleep tonight. Maybe I'll have something tomorrow. I'm feeling like one week isn't enough for each chapter. I feel way behind.

oh I know what ya mean, my last dream also really was apocalyptical boooohhh.. about the chapters, I feel like some of us are already further in the chapters and some are behind. I did forget at which one I was and which one we were supposed to read at what time LOL so I am just in between 2th and 3th chapter - but I think its not that bad important, I guess more important is that we just keep a connection to the contents on a daily base. So I do just read 1-2 pages shortly before sleep, but Im anyways into some other problems, I feel I am revolting against my own remembrance-intensions, because slowly its getting rediculous that I do forget so many dreams although I`ve intended more than ever to remember. But its a kind of funny to observe that too. Linda, hope you could sleep well finally and then have a pleasant day, lgn

I haven't been posting because I've had lots of dreams that I can't recall. ;D
I think I am in the same stuck place as you Nani.
I've read about half of the 4 chapter. It sure is getting good.
One thing I have been doing is dabbing a little bit of Jasmine oil on my pulse points just before bed. I was going to make me up some of that astral projection oil that Incubus post about on another thread, but all I could fine was the Jasmine oil. I think just it alone is helping me to be more aware of my dreaming episodes. By the way, Incubus, could you tell us where to find all those ingredients. I don't have very many places here in the town I live that carries that kind of stuff.
Sept 12th
I did a lot of dreaming and woke up after each one, but they disappeared before I could grab a pencil.
I can remember parts of a very long one. I was having to figure something out and I had 4 choices I could choose from. The first choice didn't work at all. The second time I came to a road way into a wooded area, but it was too narrow. Then I tried the third choice and I came to the same place. There was a pair of scissors laying there on the ground at the entrance to this roadway. I got out of my car and pick up there scissors and began cutting the grass like it was material. (That was kind of crazy.) I should have became lucid there,but didn't. When I got to the top of this entrance way I notice that it had already been made wider and I felt like such a goof for cutting it when it had already been made larger. Somehow it was connected to Lilacsky and I thought at the time she was going to be mad about me cutting her road. I tried to make it go back together, but no success. (I think those were all hints for me to become lucid) Then I got back in my car and drove up this trail. It went up a very high hill/mountian. I got all most to the top and there was something there that began chasing me. Maybe Lilacsky. Hehe! ;D
That's all I can remember.

Linda your "I was having to figure something out.." did occur also a lot in my dreams. I feel it like we have done a starting shot with this dreaming-research and now our subconscious truly is trying to figure out something all the time, thats a sign for progress in regards to our work-out, dont you think so too? Haha I really had to laugh about `Lilac maybe being mad of you, because you had cutted her road` Lol, thats too funny. About my last flash-dream-what I`ve already sent you a request to please give me your 2cents, lgn

Sept. 16
My dreaming is still about the same. I remember dreaming several dreams every night and waking up after each one, but immediately forget what they are about. I do remember a part of one and it's funny when I was dreaming it I thought I would remember this one for sure. I was really liking it a lot.
I was in someone who is an artist house and it seemed like I had been there often. She was into making pottery and she also did watercolor paintings. First I focused on the pottery and it was all so beautiful. She had it all over the room, all various sizes and shapes. Then my attention went to a large round wooden table and on the table was a watercolor picture she had just finished and was wanting to know what I thought about it. I focus on the paint and went over all the details of it.
I tried hard to keep my attention on the painting but the dream faded. Also I know there was a lot more to the dream than that little bit that I remembered.
I don't know a lot about watercolor painting. I have never tried that. I look at the painting for quite a while and have all the details of it in my mind. If I ever see that painting in the physical, I will surely recognizes it.

thats amazing you can remember the painting so exactly, can you describe it ? I did have also tonight a dream-fragment of a painting, but it reminds me to a documentary-film I saw recently in which a chinese man made an impressing tree-painting in seconds, just by blowing the black-color for the trunk and brunches quick over the paper and then dab just some red-color for the blooms, that performance was impressing - but unfortunately I can not remember what I exactly dreamed. lgn

Nani, the painting was of a scenery of falls trees and river zig zagging down through it. The highlighting and colors was very nicely done. There was even a bird in sky. I wish I had paid attention to the signature. It looked like one of those where you float the colors in and then use a liner brush or pen to put in details. Watercolor painting looks so much harder to do than oil or acrylic to me, but I'm sure there are techniques you learn to get the different effects, just as there are in oils and all. I love that airy and light look of watercolor paintings. It's funny we both dreamed of a painting on the same night. ;D
Sept 17 My dreams were back to 'making decision' type dreams. Didn't sleep enough hours to really dream much. Didn't remember any details. I'm fixing to go to bed as soon as I get done here ,which is early for even though it is 1am. I hope I don't have any run ends with those organic characters. HeHe!

Sept. 18th
I finally got the 4th chapter finished last night. It was a long one, but good.
I got up this morning thinking dang, I don't remember any of my dreams and I slept 8 whole hours last night. But then I read about Nani's dream and one of mind was brought back to memory. I was looking up at the sky and there was these six white tube looking things made of cloud substance but only not breaking apart like clouds do. They were spread out like a fan, coming together at the horizon. There was movement. Kind of moved in a rhythm waving jerky motion, maybe to the beat of music, but I wasn't hearing anything. It caused me to feel uneasy/fear, which cause me to wake up.
When I went to bed I listened to my meditation tape and began getting flickers scenes very soon into it. I've been noticing just before these start I have what feels like an increase in heart rate. More like a fluttering sensation in my chest and then a wave sensation as I switch over into seeing the flickers. While I'm seeing the flickers I no longer feel the fluttering sensation. I fell asleep before I even got half way into the meditation and that is when I had that dream sometime after. When I woke from the dream, I still had my earphones on, but the tape had ended.

this is truly amazing Linda, seems we are a kind of in tune, all that similar symbols of paintings/trees, sky/horizon and also the "making decisions type dreams. Your sky dream also was accompanied by fear/uneasy or odd feelings like mine. Just amazing all this - I will start to post some of the conspicious dreams refering to the book and some of the conspicious similar dream-contents between us people into the new thread of Blake: "Art of Dreaming people read this". lgn

hmm, so what does the sky represent to you both?? nani and you cc?? I m just curious,..to me it seems perhaps sometimes clouds can actually mean we are thinking in the clouds or are in the clouds about things in our lives, does that make sense? ya know where we think everything is okay, however we are not seeing the entire story.. but than again the moving tubes..thats odd, Im not sure lol.. if it made you feel uneasy, perhaps something is starting to develope underneath the surface, or"past the clouds"..if that makes sense lol I can't focus on what im trying to say here, but hopefully youll get what I mean with this.. I think its clear you cc are seeing more of what is going on that has not yet taken shape yet..to me seeing things form or mold into a shape is seeing/feeling what is to come..trust your instincts at this time.
