LD: Visiting Ireland

October 26, 2024 - LD

Waning Moon in Leo, Lunar day 24

I suddenly find myself awake in a dream while strolling down a bustling street. There are crowds everywhere! Just to double-check I'm not actually awake and making a fool of myself, I perform a quick reality check and—whoosh!—I start to float. Feeling adventurous, I decide to leave the street behind and let the dream conjure up a new scene: Ireland! With my sights set on the stunning cliffs, I turn right and behold rolling green hills and ancient castle ruins. I’m really in Ireland!! Below one of the castle ruins, I spot a dream character wandering about. Unsure what to do next, I boldly ask him where my friend is. He gestures toward a little hallway nestled beneath the castle ruin. Curiosity piqued, I step inside and see my friend emerging from a dressing room. Now, his outfit is rather… unique, to say the least! We chat for a bit, and he casually mentions that his sister-in-law is moving to Iz, a small town where my sister lives. Talk about a coincidence! Eager to gather some dream proof, I inquire about the name of the street. When he tells me, it sounds familiar, and I start to believe that maybe—just maybe—we’re really here! I wake up, only to realise I’ve forgotten the street name. Classic! But I decide I absolutely must tell him and his sister-in-law about this wild dream. To be continued...

A visionary guide to Lucid Dreaming by Lee Adams

This book was recently shared for free in the Discord group The Icarus Project by Lee Adams himself. It’s a server entirely dedicated to lucid dreaming... and it makes things fun with different tiers. So, of course, the book immediately went onto my reading list. The book is divided into five parts: The Dreamer and the Dream Lucid Dreaming: Foundational Techniques Working with Your Dreams The Dreamer’s Journey Advanced Tools and Supplements for Lucid Dreaming With a total of 30 chapters. Yes, 30! With so many chapters, you know this isn’t just a basic book on dreaming. The Introduction The first part covers what lucid dreaming is, what’s important to have lucid dreams, the difference between lucid dreams and OBEs (Out-of-Body Experiences), and why awareness is key to the lucid dreaming journey. Lee delves into the different states of consciousness, mindfulness, and daily habits. This quote sums it up nicely: "Developing the skill of lucid dreaming is developing the habit of being...

My story and stats

Counting Dreams: A Journey Through the Years I finally took the time to tally up all the dreams I’ve had over the years. Let’s just say, this wasn’t a weekend project! For anyone curious about my journey and how it all started, I’ve shared my story and the stats below. How It All Began Officially, I started my dream journals in the summer of 2007 , though I had tried several times before that. I remember one attempt when I was a teenager—I used colorful pens and pretty sheets of paper, hoping to make it all special. But I couldn't keep up with it. Eventually, I gave up because it wasn’t as perfect as I’d imagined. This pattern repeated over the years, and the only attempt I clearly remember was from a family trip under a full moon. All the other times, I can only recall as spontaneous decisions on random days. Then, I came across advice that changed my approach: journals don’t need to be pretty, because that might create resistance. So, I bought a simple, sturdy notebo...

The Head Trip by Jeff Warren

Another one from my old collection. It’s been a while since I last read this book, but I remember finding it fascinating, so I thought it deserved a spot on my blog. Naturally, I’m rereading it. The concept of this book revolves around a wheel—the Wheel of Consciousness. This wheel moves, in general, according to our biological clock, following a 24-hour cycle. Sometimes, it turns faster; at other times, it moves more slowly. The book is divided into two parts: Night and Day . From there, it splits further into segments of the “pie” (or wheel). First up: Night, starting with its opening chapter: Hypnagogia There aren’t many books dedicated to hypnagogia. I did review one recently ( Liminal Dreaming ) that dives deeply into the subject. It’s only in recent years that writers have started focusing entire books on this topic, which is great for those who want a comprehensive look. But for anyone not ready to commit to a full book, this chapter provides an excellent summary. Image by Jeff...
