Caring for Hollywood Matron, I Shall Lucid Dream, Dan, Dan.

Caring for Elderly Hollywood Matron  Dreaded [NDR]

Notes:

"Elderly" was in the original title and I believe part of the problem with remembering.

I was using Google Maker  again. Had a fairly good visual representation. I know I had three or four dreams.At one point I had three dreams clearly in my mind I was creating titles right when I created the title another one vanish from my memory. This is all while I'm basically not moving. Still in the bed.

Dora came and stood on my head. Which kind of pissed me off. I've got no one to be angry at except for myself. I've got to start getting up earlier. Got to. Got to.

Just to emphasize the point a  hawk cried 15 times or more in a row. I don't think I've ever heard that many. Rather amazing and pointed.

Looks like I'm halfway through 40 day intensive. I'm gonna take that as there's still hope for me yet.

In order to remember my dreams better I need to have stable  succinct titles. Try not to cram so much into the title that I forget the actual dream. As soon as I remember the first one do the title but then review the detail of the dream. Each time I go through the list keep the title  the same and review detail possibly every scene.

If it's a big dream, wake up record it so I need to keep the phone by the bed.

2:25 p.m.

I Shall Lucid Dream, Dan, Dan.  [PL] [WILD]

Snippet 1. I'm in my bed going back and forth into the dream state taking an afternoon nap. Actually it started a little after 11 o'clock. I've been practicing the incubation/mantra, "I will lucid dream. I will lucid dream" multiple times. Change it from "I will lucid dream". to "I shall lucid dream dream." As I enter the dream I'm pulling up in a car and see someone standing on the curb. They may be standing on the sidewalk like in front of a restaurant or something. I'm not sure For some reason I am reluctant to engage them.

Snippet 2. There are a series of vague encounters. I don't remember any of the details. I did very briefly and then didn't focus on them well enough. Somewhere in the middle of the series I realize I'm dreaming. Sort of. I say "I am dreaming in the dream." I do not do a reality check, I wake up.

Snippet 3. I'm attempting to get another dream character's attention. I say "Dan Dan ". I wake up with those words on my lips. I think it must be past 1 o'clock. Turns out it was almost 2:30p.

Notes:

I could call this call  pre-lucid, sort of lucid, trying to be listed. Doesn't really matter it's close. It's very close. Plus it's a WILD. Wake Induced Lucid Dream attempt. Going directly from consciousness into a dream. This is what I should concentrate on. Likely will work best in the phase where I am trying to extend lucid dreams or during  a nap or late in the morning after waking back to bed

 Look up the technique, concentrate on it. Or just do my own thing sometimes (but be organized).

I think this may be a Breakthrough for several reason. 1. I am desperately ready for one. 2. I got the hawk's emphatic agreement with my need to get up earlier when I was dictating the words this morning. 3. I went from will to shall. 4. I got some immediate results when I made the change. 5. This is all about having faith without dogma. This is a convoluted topic that I am not straight on, but it is critical. Deal with it in Prelude to a Dream today. I need the faith, sort out the relationship to dogma.

Yes..you!
