Wednesday Morning's Short Lucid Dreams

I woke up at about 5am this morning as usual, and it took a long time to get to back to sleep, though I did take some melatonin which helped. Afterwards, there were a couple of brief lucid dreams.

I ended up in a dream where I was in my room, and the lighting was strangely dim. For some reason I started to think about how I would describe the action of trying to fly in dream, so I could write a post about it here on Lucid Dream Realities. As I was thinking about this, I came to the conclusion as I have before, about what the method is that makes dream flight possible (at least for me).

I realized once again that what you've got to do is concentrate on something outside of yourself; that's what gives you the power to do it. For me it's the thought that the dream itself is actually pulling me upwards.

So as I was thinking about this, I was shocked when I actually started rising towards the ceiling, because I really thought it was real! I also remember that as I touched the ceiling I said aloud in the dream something to the effect of "I can't believe I'm really dreaming right now". It was weird to yell and yet know that in real life I wasn't making a sound.

However, I already felt how fragile the dream was, as if I was barely in it. I either woke up right afterwards, or went straight into another dream. Later on, I had other very brief lucid dreams which only lasted seemingly a couple minutes each.

The only other dream I can remember right now was where I was inside a building in this mall type area, and I had been having a conversation with someone. There was this escalator I rode, which was on a strangely steep incline. When I got to the top I gained lucidity, and quickly headed straight for the nearest wall. At that point I was so sure it was a dream that I knew I had the power to easily pass through walls, which I did with surprising ease.

Afterwards, I had a false awakening, but the strange thing was that I woke up for real just seconds later. Anyways, not one of my interesting dreams, but I wanted to write it down before I forgot.

Strange Version Of Recurring Highway Dream

This morning, I had a strange dream. I have recurring dreams where I'm going somewhere on a highway, and there's lots of cars on the road. The highway always has something strange about it, like it will have too many overpasses and underpasses, or be broken.

Last night's dream was sort of similar. I remember that I was going down a road which became a broad highway. However, I wasn't travelling in a car; I was running on foot. As I progressed, the path became wider and I noticed there kept being more and more cars.

Then, in that way in which dreams usually transform over time, it changed to where the cars were no longer there, and everyone was on foot. All of this took place in the matter of nothing but a few seconds. Now, the road had become this broad, grated metal pathway that began to incline. It almost seemed like something from the video game F-Zero GX. As I kept walking, it became harder to go forward.

This path I was on kept inclining to a further degree, until it was almost impossible to climb. I started to feel like it might become dangerous. A lot of people that were hundreds of feet in front of me began to complain that the highway path wouldn't end, but seemed to extend forever into the sky. Many of them started to turn back.

After a little while of this, I too realized it was pointless because it turned out that the pathway goes on forever. So I headed back down.

It was all really abstract, but yet strangely realistic. Other things happened later in the dream that didn't make much sense, and after a few minutes I woke up.
