Here is my very 1st lucid dream - I go thru some bureacrautic building,
throw documents on the floor and lock the doors here and there. Somebody is
chasing me. I leave the building and find myself in the yard. I look at the
wall and think "Can I climb it ?". Then another thought comes across -
"Why climb, maybe I should just fly up". As soon as I thought that, I
realized that I am dreaming and law of gravity is no longer in effect. I flew
straight up into the blueness of the sky, saw the dry red roofs under me...
and then alarm clock woke me up.
Another case. I am walking down Strelnieku street (the street in Riga, where
I lived first 20 years of my life). Everything looks normal, like in waking
life. I don't see anything out of ordinary. I goto into the yard - still
everything is in order. I go thru the yard, back to the street and to
the yard again. Boom! - landcape has changed. Instead of houses there are
mountains, between them is a small river, I see the bridge in the distance.
"I am sleeping" - my keen insight suggested :) The flight over the
water followed, though I couldn't go under water - it was only ankle deep.
I've read somewhere that in lucid dream we are in the entire alternative
world, which can be explored. This is what I did in one of my dreams.
I was flying over that world, under me was the railroad, on the sides -
buildings, factories and the forest. One house caught my attention - I
approached it and entered thru the window. There were two persons in the
room. I decided to brag about my special skills and I told them that I can
go thru the walls. They didn't believe me. So, I tried to demonstrate... and
failed! (I interpret this episode like this: part of me that is always doubting
took the form of other people in the dream and blocked me.)
