Moons sliding by in an orange sky.

I fly up the length of a tree a dawn where the sky is bright orange and the moon is glowing white. I fly toward the moon, but it slides out of frame to the right. A new moon slides in from the left and the cycle continues.

Hitting a dinky plastic object.

I’m lucid and want to fly to the moon! I take off from my neighborhood street, gradually getting closer to the moon. As I get closer, the moon gets smaller until I hit a dinky flying piece of plastic in the sky.

Running into a rock that’s not the moon.

I ask a friend to help push me to the moon in a lucid dream. I gather speed toward the moon, but as I get closer to it, it (again) becomes tiny. I run into a rock in the sky and laugh at how silly this all is.

Seeing a moon that’s made of paper with a tiny city on it.

I realize I am dreaming and I get so excited I start flying to the moon. As I get closer, it becomes paper and a fluorescent yellow and purple electric city starts to emerge on the surface of the moon print.

Trying to go to the moon, but riding dragons instead.

I fly through a big, open warehouse and up toward the moon. Before I get there, a red dragon and green dragon fly toward me. I forget about the moon and ride the green dragon over the city.
