What an experience. I was semi-sure/not sure I was dreaming in the dream, which was amazing.

Simply stunning, anyone else had one?

The night before last I dreamt about walking into this huge cathedral - but it felt bigger than life, almost like a million Imax screens together... the most amazing and beautiful blue and white cathedral glass.. I turned to the right and saw this huge vision of the universe spinning slowly.. but that was only part of the whole tudor-like dream.

Last night I dreamt I was with swimming up-close with Ricky Gervais. I was trying to impress him so he could give me a job on his next project.

My dreams are always a little bit strange. Ahem.

I can hardly remember my dreams since over 25 years.

Fortunatly, there is a kind of lucid dream I do remember. Probably because those give me an intense feeling of joy and freedom. They range from levitation to full flight.

It's like if everytime my unconscious side is trying to defy gravity, some switch toggles my concious side to enhance the experience so I can travel through space at the speed of light.

I wish I could do that for erotic dreams...

I lucid dream quite a bit. My husband says I have epic length dreams b/c I dream whole lifetimes, literally. So when I have a particularly memory detailed dream (where my brain has made up a lifetime of memories for who I was in the dream), I wake up disoriented for a few minutes trying to decipher what was a dream and what is me.

I don't have them as often as I use to, but I still have them at least every few months. 90% of the time those kinds of dreams are a treat. Once in awhile they are not. I have woken up and I could not figure out where the scars from multiple gunshot wounds on my face went to. It took me a full five minutes to figure it out. But on the otherhand, I have also woken up trying to figure out why I wasn't breathing water and why I couldn't fly (BTW, the secret to fly is to just take really long steps and float on the wind ;) )

I want to add another question. How mnay here have ever died in their dreams? That's one I have never done. I've had falling dreams where I actually hit the ground, but never one where I died.

Never died, but continually dream about lifts made out of wood in grand hotels falling apart.

Funny, I always though the best way to fly was to dive to the ground and miss it. ;)

Found a great dream flying tutorial.

Died at least 5 times in my dreams - each a different, unique way. One was particularly convincing, and scared the holy bejeezus out of me when I woke up. <shudders>

I dreamed I was King Kong and had fighter planes shooting at me from all directions while I struggled to hang onto the spire of the Empire State building.. Does that count?

I also had a dream that I was Bill Gates personal valet and that Steve Wozniak had contacted me and wanted me to whack Gates. I was sympathetic to his cause but tying to avoid long stretches in the pokey and still slightly loyal to billyboy and after haggling a bit over pricing had to decline his generous offer.

Woz knew I could get in close and was counting on that. Again I declined... I explained that if we whacked the guy not much would really change in the overall cosmic scheme of things, nothing of any significance anyway. An appointed figurehead would step in and take bills place and life around ms would go on much as it had been. There would be a shifting, a restructuring... the giant would live on though...

Spooky stuff...

I once dreamed I was a butterfly. Then I woke up and wondered if I was a butterfly dreaming about being a man.

Not really - but this thread has just been aching for this old chestnut to be included! ;)

Yeah. When I was about 13 or 14. One summer, whilst napping on my aunt's couch at her beach house. The dream involved a certain young hottie in a lose red bikini.

You know the type of dream, gents, don't you? Remember your youth?

Oh, nevermind.

I live in the Northwest (US) and love the area, mountains, streams, trees, it's all still country.

I have a recurring "dream" which turns out to be a nightmare, as I fly (of course you can fly) south out of my town, you (normally) get a beautiful view of the orchard and farm/cowfield - covered Rogue Valley, backdropped by snow-capped Mt. McLoughlin in the distance . . .

Except that the orchards and farms are all gone and replaced with wall-to-wall housing tracts, streets, and smoke-belching factories, the smog is so thick you can't see Mount McLoughlin, only it's bare rocky crag juts through the layers of smog and smoke. The streams have dried up, the trees are all gone, the orchards, the place it once was, gone, all gone.

I am not an environmentalist but this dream scares the crap out of me, mostly because I know it's going to come true.

LOL @ Webwork!

I was about to recount a similar dream, then re-read the thread title.

Lucid. LOOO-sid. Don't mind me.

When I was younger I did a lot of dream journaling and dream work to be able to lucid dream. I remember the first time thinking "this is a dream, I can do anything I want" and then jumping to fly. It was a very rewarding experience but I can't say that I was able to duplicate it more than a time or two.

Sometimes that happens to me. One thing I realized a couple weeks ago was that when I am awakened from a good dream, I go back to sleep to find out what happens next. Sad thing, I never find out. I have all these dreams hanging out in limbo:-(

I had a few when I was on the nicotine patches... they were always, real, scary, and evil.

In one, this woman (who looked suspiciously like my gf's friend) followed me home from the grocery, scammed me, and eventually took over my house. That was before she moved her 3 kids in and I realized I also had to deal with her crazy ex-husband on a daily basis.

After waking up, I spent about 3 hours explaining this dream to my gf. I had 3 or 4 that really creeped me out.
