Dream of the Week: Dream Manipulation

Quick Setup: Last week was difficult and stressful! And as expected, dream recall and lucidity dwindled. Such is the ebb and flow of life. This week, I am digging into the archives, as there are always plenty of experiences from the past! Let's go!

Dream Manipulation

Lucid at the start, I’m driving fast along a city highway with my partner in the passenger seat. We are speeding by, looking at the other cars when I think I want to fly. Suddenly, we are flying over the highway in a helicopter. I look down below and see another helicopter parked on the ground. Seeing it parked makes me think that I may not be in a helicopter after all. With this thought, I’m now flying freely through the sky with no vehicle. 

He has vanished, and I fly quickly beyond the city limits to a neighborhood in the distance. I land on a pristine white sidewalk with many quaint suburban houses neatly in a row. It’s a bright and beautiful summer afternoon. I pause for a moment and consider what to do with my lucidity. 

I look up to the blue sky and notice large, fluffy white clouds and think to change their color. Before I do that, however, I think I ought to try something smaller first. I look back to the houses and notice one lawn nearby that is covered in white rocks. I kneel down and pick one up, holding it in the palm of my hand. I close my grip around it and think it will be purple when I open my hand. When I do, it’s purple! I’m overjoyed. Next, I pick up a gray and white rock and repeat the process, willing it to be orange. I open my palm, and it’s indeed orange. 

Thrilled by my skills, I try to multiply some flowers on the lawn. I slowly lift my finger up from the ground, imagining that new plants are sprouting from the tip. It works, and I am absolutely dazzled! I repeat this process, creating small patches of flowers and plants on the lawn, feeling totally amazed that it’s working. While in the middle of multiplying flowers, I see a man with a fish as a head walk by. I continue with my dream plants, absolutely sure I will not remember the fish head man.

I wake up.

ProTip: Take a break from your practice when you are stressed or have other priorities. Your dreams will always be there when you’re ready.
