Dream 910

'Blast from the Past'

Date: 7 February 2018

Time: 01:30 - 08:45

Type of dream: Normal dream
Dream recall: Weak recall 

This dream was part of my current Dream Incubation Experiment - Anakin Skywalker Dream. Please click HERE for my post on the Dream Incubation Experiment, the Methodology I am using (with instructions for those who also want to attempt to incubate their own dream) and links to my previous Dream Incubation Experiments and previous Star Wars-themed dreams.

Scene 1: Location Unknown - Time Unknown
I was in unknown (unrecalled) location and present was PM - a boy from the year below me at high school who strongly resembled Kurt Cobain (and styled himself on Cobain, being a Nirvana fan). I was always attracted to PM while at school - both his looks and his personality/musical talent. In the dream time had passed between high school and it may have been the present day, but PM looked as he did at school (I have no idea what he would look like now, as I have never met him as an adult). I wanted to show him I was attracted to him, but I felt he was far too young for me. A female dream character - a mature woman with grey hair - was present at some point and I told her that it would be inappropriate for me to make advances on PM as he was too young.

I cannot recall what else happened in the dream.

Extra Information: 
No Vitamin B6 taken (forgot)

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• None of note

Dreamsigns: 

• PM looked the way he did in high school and there seemed to be an age gap between us (more than the actual 1 year)

Day Residue: 

• Around the time of this dream I saw a post by BC stating that women over 30 are sexually unappealing - this is his typical of his trolling personality. My response was that men over 30 are also on the decline. There is no point reacting negatively to BC. I also saw a number of posts on Facebook tag groups where men - incel/neckbeard types - were expressing the same sentiment, or sharing memes comparing teenage girls to 30-something women. Given these groups are intended to highlight distasteful, offensive or problematic posts online, I react more genuinely here than on my friends' satirical posts

Waking Reactions: 
I wish I remembered more about this dream. I thought it was really weird that PM was the person who appeared in this dream as although I did have a crush on him more than 20 years ago, it wasn't a particularly 'strong' or 'deep' crush, more like appreciation. If I had really fancied him, I could have made him aware back then. I have vague recollections of other dreams that involved PM. It inspires me to try and make contact with him, but I feel that this would be weird and creepy and other than a band website which has not been updated in years, there is no trace of him on social media.

Dream 909

'Penis Bellybutton'

Date: 6 February 2018

Time: 04:00 - 10:00

Type of dream: Normal dream
Dream recall: Normal recall 

This dream was part of my current Dream Incubation Experiment - Anakin Skywalker Dream. Please click HERE for my post on the Dream Incubation Experiment, the Methodology I am using (with instructions for those who also want to attempt to incubate their own dream) and links to my previous Dream Incubation Experiments and previous Star Wars-themed dreams. On that post you will also find an Index for all recorded dreams which take place during this experiment.

Scene 1: Unknown - Time Unknown
I was in an unknown interior and I was able to see myself in third-person perspective. I was naked, because I could see my lower body unobstructed by clothing, but I could not see or did not look at my chest/genital areas, only my bellybutton. My bellybutton was a huge penis - about 3 foot in length and flesh-coloured, although the room was very brightly lit, and everything had an orange glow. I was really concerned and worried about my bellybutton. A male dream character - perhaps a doctor - was present and he was telling me not to be worried, as this was completely normal, but I knew that it was not. At some point, my bellybutton went back to normal and I was relieved. I experienced this 'normality' from first-person perspective.

I was then looking at an older female dream character using a PC. She was trying to show me something on the computer screen, but I was distracted by the fact that blue pompoms were emerging from the sides of the monitor. I was actually quite scared as I assumed this meant that Pennywise the Clown from IT (1986/2017) had taken over/infected the computer. I was anxious, waiting for him to appear in person. 

I cannot recall anything else about this dream. 

Extra Information: 
100 mg Vitamin B6 taken

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• None of note

Dreamsigns: 

• I saw myself in third-person perspective
• The penis bellybutton
• The computer grew blue pompoms which I associated with Pennywise

Day Residue: 

• The day before this dream I had watched some Youtube videos showing extraction of 'navel stones'. I then checked my own bellybutton to see if I had signs of navel stones (I did not), but I found that my very old, unused navel piercing needed cleaning
• The day before this dream I saw a woman an image of a woman online who had a very strange, protruding bellybutton
• On the day of this dream a man who I had met once contacted me to tell me he was interested in me and wanted to see me again. He mentioned he had a 'huge cock' that I could 'ride' whenever I wanted to. I was not offended by the message, despite it being an unsolicited sexual comment and me finding it distasteful and unnecesary
• A couple of days before this dream I saw a Grav3yardgirl video in which Bunny showed a new makeup brush which looked like a blooming flower - I think this influenced the way in which the pompoms 'bloomed' from the computer monitor

Waking Reactions: 
This was not a nightmare, but is was a very disturbing dream, particularly the scene with the 'penis bellybutton' which was not a pleasant image to see. 

Dream 908

'One Big Confusing Day'

Date: 4 February 2018

Time: 01:30 - 07:30

Type of dream: Vivid dream
Dream recall: Strong recall 

This dream was part of my current Dream Incubation Experiment - Anakin Skywalker Dream. Please click HERE for my post on the Dream Incubation Experiment, the Methodology I am using (with instructions for those who also want to attempt to incubate their own dream) and links to my previous Dream Incubation Experiments and previous Star Wars-themed dreams.

Scene 1: Norwich - Evening
I met with Sam Chapman from the Pixiwoo Youtube channel -she is local to Norwich, but I have never met her in real life. I noticed how beautiful Sam looked when not just seen on a video - she was wearing a bright red lipstick. She needed my help for something and I was surprised that she had come to me for this help. I wondered how she ever knew who I was or trusted me to help her. I don't recall what she needed help with, but I agreed to it and she accompanied me to my home in Norwich. 

We were in my lounge/kitchen and my Nan was present. She was cleaning my kitchen and putting things into my fridge, wearing an apron (I have never seen my Nan wear an apron in real life). Sam and I were standing in front of the ledge which separates the kitchen from the lounge (it is like a very high, narrow breakfast bar, which I use as a shelf). The rest of my flat was as it looks in real life, other than the dining table was not present - as we were standing where this should be).

My Nan did not seem pleased to see me - she was annoyed at me for something. I tried to introduce Sam to my Nan, and tell my Nan how exciting it was for me to be with a Youtuber and Businesswoman I respect so much, but my Nan was ignoring Sam and just being really hostile towards me. I was embarrassed by her behaviour given Sam was with me. I asked my Nan what was wrong and my Nan said that she had been with my Mum for a week, looking after her. My Mum had been to the doctor in relation to a 'non-serious problem'. My Nan would not tell me what the problem with my Mum was, which caused me anxiety and worry. It appeared that my family had been hiding this problem for me, and keeping me away from my Mum. My Nan's vagueness and secrecy was making me frustrated, but I was aware that I needed to help Sam with something. Sam and I took a couple of steps towards the front door of my flat and she showed me her latest Youtube video on a mobile phone. I said I would be willing to do whatever she needed from me, but I had to go and see my Mum.

Scene 2: A Domestic Interior - Evening
I went to see my Mum and found her in a domestic interior, which I do not know from real life. It was a dark room with a large wooden dining table in it. My Mum was polishing the table and also - like my Nan - wearing an apron while performing this household chore. I stood on the other side of the table and told my Mum about my concerns for her wellbeing and my concerns that my Nan had tried to keep me away/unaware. My Mum tried to reassure me that nothing was wrong. I asked her why she had to go to the doctor and why my Nan had told me that she was looking after my Mum. My Mum stopped polishing the table and smiled at me whispering words to the effect of: 'I went for a number 1, but I could not do a number 2'. I perceived this to mean that she had gone to pee, but could not take a shit, and was whispering/using euphemisms out of politeness. I felt relieved at first that the problem seemed quite minor, but then I wondered if I was being lied to, to stop me from worrying about a more serious problem.

Scene 3: Peter's Bookshop, St Peters Road, Sheringham - Evening
I thefound myself in Peter's Bookshop - the secondhand bookshop I used to visit every week when I was a child, often buying horror books, which were on a shelf by the entrance. This bookshop is situated a 30 second walk from my Mum's home, so perhaps Scene 2 was supposed to take place in my Mum's home (she lives in a flat about her workplace, a nursing home for elderly people). This would explain why I was able to get to the bookshop so quickly after visiting my Mum (although I had managed to transport from Norwich to Sheringham without travelling/passing of time). I was disappointed to find that the horror section had moved and there were not many books downstairs (the shop is very ramshackle and shabby, with thousands of books just piled everywhere if they do not fit on the crowded shelves). I saw the male owner of the shop at the cash register. I walked through to another section of the shop and found that there were stairs leading to an upper level. Upon going upstairs, I wondered if this was really Peter's Bookshop, or a version of a secondhand bookshop which I had visited in an earlier dream (so I was questioning my dream, but not lucid or in any way aware I was dreaming. It was more like I was thinking: 'This looks different, it reminds me of a place from a dream'). 

The upstairs level had many small rooms filled with different genres of books. There were also other things in the rooms - such as a stand with red teacups on it, and another room with children's toys. I was confused as to why these items - which appeared to be bric-a-brac, were in a bookshop, but decided that perhaps the shop now sold other secondhand items. There were a couple of dream characters in some of the rooms upstairs, browsing the books, but I knew that the shop was about to close and the experience in one of my favourite shops felt isolating, lonely, sterile and rushed - it was as if I could not enjoy looking for books and felt confused by the slightly unfamiliar surroundings. 

Scene 4: An Unknown Interior, Location Unknown - Night
After I left the bookshop I went elsewhere - to a domestic interior which I do not know from real life. I looked at my mobile phone and saw that there was a hole in the screen. I realised that I already knew about the damage to the phone, so was not shocked - I had just forgotten about it. The hole in the screen was a perfect rectangle and about 1 cm long and 0.5 cm wide, It was very deep, meaning the glass phone screen was at least a couple of centimetres thick. I could see my usual phone screensaver was now something blue, which was also visible through the hole in the screen.

I was then looking at a laptop which was logged into my Facebook. There were some (unseen) dream characters present and I think that these persons were those who I will describe as interacting with me on Facebook - therefore they were present in my physical space, but instead of interacting in person, the interaction was happening in real-time on my Facebook and I did not pay attention to their 'physical' selves in the same room as me.

I was aware that a female dream character (not known to me in real life or the dream) had befriended several of my friends. This female was called 'Gill' and I knew that it was spelled this way, rather than the more common 'Jill'. 'Gill' was linked in some way to Myra Hindley - I think I knew she was dating the actual Ian Brady, who in the dream was alive and a young man (i.e. the way he was before his arrest and detention for the notorious Moors Murders). Gill was threatening to reveal online that I had had sex with RDTA and MSN. I think she was now dating one of them, and wanted to disclose my sexual relations with them to spite me. I was very anxious that she not to do this, because I was not ashamed I had had sex with them, I did not want RDTA to know I had previously had sex with MSN, because I preferred RDTA and I didn't want him to think I had tried to 'replace' him with MSN. I was trying to get Facebook friends - including MSN himself to stop Gill from spreading rumours about me, but everyone seemed to be suggesting that they could not stop Gill and therefore I was trying to think of a way to limit the damage she could cause and seek some form of revenge against her. This whole incident was distressing, annoying and frustrating. 

I cannot recall anything else about this dream. 

Extra Information: 
No Vitamin B6 taken (forgot)

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• My Nan as a dream character
• Conflict with my Nan
• Human shit
• RDTA as a dream character

Dreamsigns: 

• I was asked to help Sam Chapman and she came to my house
• The scene with my Mum
• My mobile phone screen
• Peter's Bookshop was very different inside - and reminded me of another secondhand bookshop (which I am not sure if is based on one I have visited in real life, or visited on another occasion in a dream)
• The weird phone screen situation
• Dream characters were interacting with my on Facebook whilst also being passive persons in my physical presence
• The dream character 'Gill' who was linked to Myra Hindley

Day Residue: 

• A couple of days before this dream I had watched a Pixiwoo Youtube video in which Sam revealed that she has been seeking help for depression which she began suffering following her stepfather's very recent death from cancer. She mentioned how she put up walls around her in preparation for losing him - as if she was grieving his death before he died, which meant she was not emotionally available to him. I felt a lot of pain on Sam's behalf hearing her talk about this. I really love her and Nic and I hate it when I see them upset about something. I work with people with depression and mental health issues, so this may have been linked in my mind
• I have recently noticed that I have not had much contact with my Mum - either on social media or by phone. This is not unusual, but it was more noticeable than usual because even if I am poor at keeping in contact with people, my Mum is usually trying to track me down if a few weeks pass
• I run parody social media accounts as Force Ghost Anakin, a 'therapist' in the Netherworld of the Force
• In a conversation with someone on the day of this dream, I mentioned that I used to read a lot of books as a child, but now I tend to read material from the internet and am quite poor at reading books, despite this being something I very much enjoy
• On the day of this dream I had been showing someone my screensaver which is Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999)
• On the day of this dream I had seen a person on Facebook mention that they had not been online recently as they had cracked the screen of their mobile phone
• On the day of this dream I had read an online article about one of my favourite Pre-Raphaelite paintings - John William Waterhouse, Hylas and the Nymphs (1896) which had been removed from public exhibition (in January 2018, Manchester Art Gallery) over concerns that it depicted nude adolescent girls and was therefore pornographic. This reminded me of another one of my favourite artworks which was controversial and subject to public vandalism when it was displayed at the Royal Academy of Art, London - Marcus Harvey, Myra (1997). I actually saw this painting as part of the Sensation exhibition when it moved to the Saatchi Gallery in London. I think the linking of these aspects of my dream come from the idea of art censorship generally, and the fact that I once bought an artbook on the Pre-Raphaelites from Peter's Bookshop
• The day before this dream I had been dealing with an incident at work where Student A was complaining about Student B sending messages/spreading rumours about Student A to friends of Student A who did not really know Student B

Waking Reactions: 
This dream felt so bizarre and significant to me - because it was long and complex and felt like it took place in real time across the span of 24 hours. Many aspects of the dream caused me some distress and anxiety, and these feelings were particularly acute. This was a dream where my recall was incredibly vivid, and although I can never ever be certain, it felt like I remembered the dream narrative in its entirety. This is probably impossible, but certainly, recalling this dream upon waking was a similar experience to recalling the plot of a movie that I have just finished watching - I might miss some of the finer details or subtle aspects, but all the main themes, locations and characters were very easy to remember. It was really odd that during Scene 3, when I visited Peter's Bookshop, I started questioning why the shop looked different and whether it was really Peter's Bookshop, or rather a secondhand bookshop I had visited in a previous dream. In other circumstances, this questioning (logical fact-checking) might be sufficient to enable to me to become lucid, but this did not happen in this dream. I will investigate earlier dreams in which a secondhand bookshop has featured and try and discover why I had this thought in this current dream (i.e. did I really dream of a bookshop like this in an earlier dream - the 'memory' or 'dream deja-vu' was strong enough to make this think this is a possibility).

Dream 907

'Terrible Exam Performance'

Date: 3 February 2018

Time: 03:00 - 08:30

Type of dream: Vivid dream
Dream recall: Strong recall 

This dream was part of my current Dream Incubation Experiment - Anakin Skywalker Dream. Please click HERE for my post on the Dream Incubation Experiment, the Methodology I am using (with instructions for those who also want to attempt to incubate their own dream) and links to my previous Dream Incubation Experiments and previous Star Wars-themed dreams. On that post you will also find an Index for all recorded dreams which take place during this experiment.

Scene 1: An Educational Institution - Day
I was at a desk sitting with other dream characters, some of whom I know from real life. This was a school/university classroom. The only person I can vividly recall was SVF, my best friend from high school. At school SVF and I used to often get into trouble, but while I kept up with my work due to a natural academic ability (and therefore did not have to pay attention in class or study hard), SVF - who was also intelligent, applied herself less and was often behind on her work. 

We were taking an exam. The exam was 3 hours long and comprised of 3 essay questions. As I read the exam paper, I realised that I did not understand a single one of the question options, and in my confused state, I was not able to attempt a single one. It was as if not understanding the question meant that I had no motivation to try and gave up without even making an attempt. I cannot recall the questions on the exam paper - it was very difficult to read them, as it often is in a dream. I knew I either had not studied the topics, or could not remember enough material to answer the questions. 

I was shocked to find that while I was looking at the exam paper, the 3 hours passed in no time at all. I could see SVF had almost completed her exam and I wondered why I was unable to do so. 

Something happened and the whole exam started again, in the same set of circumstances, but with a new exam paper. I still felt overwhelmed by the questions, but I could see one which was: 'Why is dreaming important?' I felt that I could answer this question, but while I was thinking about how to structure the answer using my knowledge of dreaming, I became aware that I had too much information and no way to fit it into a comprehensive, yet concise answer which would make sense. An alarm went off. I assumed this meant the 3 hours were up and this was the end of the exam. SVF explained that this was just a timer to indicate the first hour had passed, meaning we still had 2 hours left of the exam. As it appeared that we were supposed to spend an hour per question, I wondered if I could complete the exam in 2 hours, given I had wasted the first one thinking about dreaming. However, I was unable to write anything on the exam paper at all, and decided to just give up.

Scene 2: My Former Law Firm, Norwich - Day
I then found myself back at the Criminal Defence law firm where I used to work. A friend from Sheringham, AP was now the boss (she has never worked in law, I believe she is a stay-at-home mum). I wanted my job back and went to speak to AP about this. AP said that I was still retained as an employee of the firm, I just had not been given any work. I asked what I needed to do to start working again and build up a caseload. AP said that when ome work for me came in, I would be able to work. I was not convinced by this, as I felt that if I was still employed on a retainer, I would have been given some work by now. I sat down at a desk and performed some menial task for the firm, which I felt meant nothing and would not guarantee I would get any proper work. The situation was confusing the frustrating to me. 

I went into the stairwell, which looked very industrial - the staircases were concrete with exposed metal railings and the walls looked to be made of grey breezeblocks. There was some yellow - I cannot recall if it was on the stair railings or walls/door, but it added to the industrial feel of the location. There were many flights of stairs, with small concrete platforms in between each. I stood on some stairs, which led up to a big metal door - which also looked industrial. It was quite dark, as there were no windows. While I was standing on these stairs, RDTA approached me from behind and I was aware that he wad wearing grey tracksuit bottoms, which he pulled down. He started trying to have sex with me from behind, which I was pleased about. We had sex standing up on the stairs and then RDTA started kissing my neck. He said: 'Kiss me back', so I turned my head and began kissing him, with him still standing behind me. I found it odd that RDTA wanted me to kiss him. 

I cannot recall anything else about this dream.

Extra Information: 
No Vitamin B6 taken (forgot)

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• None of note

Dreamsigns: 

• I was sitting an exam with SVF
• My reaction to the exam was extremely different to real life
• AP was the boss of my former law firm
• The scene with RDTA

Day Residue: 

• Recently I have been trying to secure an academic intercalation for my PhD as I am behind on work
• On the day of this dream I was discussing the 'academic' approach I adopt to my dreamwork
• On the day of this dream I received a message from a follower via my Tallulah La Ghash Facebook page. The person was asking me to help them with a desired lucid dream which involved a very extreme taboo subject. Before awaiting my response, he launched into a description of his problem and the very disturbing lucid dream he wanted to experience as a way of dealing with his moral conflict and waking issues (it involved his adult sister in a sexual scenario). I told him I was unwilling to discuss the topic with him, and if he wanted my advice on how to lucid dream generally, he was welcome to follow it, but I thought he needed a therapist, not an oneironaut. This man continued to press me for advice and discussion of his issue, asking me many questions. On a number of occasions, my response was: 'I can't answer that' and eventually I began to ignore his continuous desperate messages because I felt uncomfortable with hi disclosure (he told me I am the only person he has confessed his fantasies to). It is likely my inability to answer the exam question relating to dreaming in Scene 1 was heavily influenced by me telling the man messaging me that I could not provide him with an answer
• On the day of this dream I had seen AP make a Facebook post

Waking Reactions: 
Although this was an enjoyable sex dream, it was not a 'wet dream' as I did not have an orgasm (either in the deram or in real life). The early part of the dream was really stressful and distressing to me, but the sex with RDTA was calming.

Dream 906

'Stupid Old C*nt'

Date: 2 February 2018

Time: 03:30 - 10:30

Type of dream: Normal dream
Dream recall: Weak recall 

This dream was part of my current Dream Incubation Experiment - Anakin Skywalker Dream. Please click HERE for my post on the Dream Incubation Experiment, the Methodology I am using (with instructions for those who also want to attempt to incubate their own dream) and links to my previous Dream Incubation Experiments and previous Star Wars-themed dreams. On that post you will also find an Index for all recorded dreams which take place during this experiment.

Scene 1: My Nan's House, Sheringham - Day
I cannot recall anything about this dream other than one scene which took place in my Nan's house, Sheringham. We were both in the lounge - my Nan was standing by the window and I was standing across the room, beside the kitchen door. My Nan was wearing a pink dressing gown and at the start of the conversation, was looking out from a gap in the closed curtains, which is how I saw it was daytime. We were discussing disabled children and my Nan said that they should all be killed. I was getting really angry about this and we began to argue. My Nan sat down in the armchair beside the door into the hallway. I screamed at her: 'You stupid old cunt!' and then stood right beside her and repeated this, emphasising the words, in particular 'old'. For some reason, although my Nan is old (she is 75 years this year), and she is neither 'stupid' nor a 'cunt', the word 'old' felt like the worst of these insults in the dream. 

Extra Information: 
No Vitamin B6 taken (forgot)

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• None of note

Dreamsigns: 

• The argument with my Nan

Day Residue: 

• The night of this dream I had been reading a story about a 9 year old American child (with a first name very similar to my own real life first name) who had a severe genetic disorder causing significant disability and deformity. Her photograph had been 'stolen' for use on a site campaigning for eugenics (mandatory screening and abortion of babies with disabilities, refusal leading to the parents having to pay for all healthcare in full). This story was posted online and the comments section beneath the post became a massive argument, as it was split down the middle - with some people advocating abortion of severely disabled children, and others advocating for disability rights. I did not have a strong reaction to the issue, although personally, my view is that it is a matter for the individual parents to decide and if people are born with disabilities then they deserve full equality and opportunity

Waking Reactions: 
I was very angry in this dream - much angrier than I had been when reading the real life comments under the online post about the real life story. There is not much to say about my waking reactions to this dream as I can only remember this one scene, and probably this one was recalled because it produced a strong emotional reaction within the dream state. 

Dream 905

'Dirty Bath'

Date: 1 February 2018

Time: 02:00 - 07:30

Type of dream: Normal dream
Dream recall: Normal recall 

This dream was part of my current Dream Incubation Experiment - Anakin Skywalker Dream. Please click HERE for my post on the Dream Incubation Experiment, the Methodology I am using (with instructions for those who also want to attempt to incubate their own dream) and links to my previous Dream Incubation Experiments and previous Star Wars-themed dreams. On that post you will also find an Index for all recorded dreams which take place during this experiment.

Scene 1: An Unknown Location (Sheringham?) - Day
I was in a location which I cannot recall, but I think it may have been Sheringham, as this thought was in my mind when I woke up. I cannot recall seeing anything in the dream which confirmed this though. This location was outside as I remember seeing a roadside.

I was with a group of dream characters, some of which I think I know from real life, but cannot recall clearly enough to identify. There was one male dream character who I knew vaguely in the dream, but who is not someone I know in real life. He was slightly younger than me. 

There was some discussion about some round, shiny silver metal balls which were about the size of an orange. These balls were being passed between myself and the dream characters and seemed significant. 

At the roadside, there was a female dream character with large breasts wearing a floaty frilly orange dress, which looked like it was made of a semi-transparent chiffon-like material. The dream characters began to discuss this female in positive terms and it appeared that the male referred to above was in love with her. The female was not paying us any attention. She was approximately 20 metres away from where we were standing on the other side of the road, and was walking or running a short distance up and down this road. There was some discussion about choosing one person over another or people being selected for something - I cannot recall all the details of this dream.

There was some reference to, or discussion of, travel and I was not keen on this idea. I cannot recall the specific details, only the feeling of not wanting to bother with this or thinking it was a hassle. 

A female dream character - I think it may have been a composite between someone I did not know and JJ, someone I know from university, who has stayed in my home for work purposes was present. I think that she was a composite character because in the dream she did not seem to know me well and did not look that much like JJ - she was taller and had curly light brown hair, whereas JJ had straight black hair. JJ asked if she could use my bath. I said she could. 

Scene 2: My Bathroom, Norwich - Time Unknown
After JJ used my bath, I went into my bathroom - this looked exactly as it does in real life, other than my white bath was now dark blue. I filled the bath with water and got in. I then noticed a lot of shit was dripping down the right inside of the bath, just above the level of the water. Instead of assuming this was left by JJ, I immediately thought it had been there before she used the bath and I wondered how she had been fine with bathing in such a dirty bath and why she had not mentioned the problem to me. I was disgusted and also felt bad that someone had been forced to use such a filthy bath which was in my flat. I got out of the bath without washing. 

Extra Information: 
No Vitamin B6 taken (forgot)

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• Large breasts
• Travel

Dreamsigns: 

• The metal balls were odd
• The shit in my bath

Day Residue: 

• The night of this dream I had posted an image on my Facebook of a character called 'Dikachu' ( see image below) - a pornographic version of Pikachu from 'Strokemon' an XXX-rated parody of Pokemon (the metal balls might have been influenced by Pokeballs)
• On the night of this dream I had been talking about how much I like taking a bath
• JJ has stayed in my flat before for work purposes. On the last occasion we discussed hair and I was surprised to find out that her natural hair colour is light brown, as her black hair suits her so well - this might be why I was confused as to whether the female dream character was JJ 

Waking Reactions: 
I have forgotten quite a lot of detail about this dream, which seemed to be much longer and more complex immediately upon waking. Unfortunately, I had to wake up early as I had some important paperwork to complete, so I had to turn my attention to that immediately upon waking and therefore was unable to concentrate on properly recalling and consolidating my dream memories. As I did recall more of this dream immediately upon waking, I think it is possible some more dream memories may resurface throughout my waking day, which often occurs in these situations. If I do remember anything else about this dream, I will record it below, noting what has triggered the new dream memories. 

Dream 904

'Graffiti Boots'

Date: 31 January 2018

Time: 13:00 - 15:00 (Afternoon Nap)

Scene 1: An Unknown Domestic Interior - Day
I was in a house in which I lived with another female dream character (who I do not know from real life). The dream mainly took place in one room which made the house seem like a bedsit, as the bathroom and kitchen were also in the same room as the beds. Most of the furniture in this house appeared to be bright pink. 

The female dream character had a brother who was visiting and wanted to move into the house with us. From the way the female dream character talked to her brother, I could sense that she thought he was a nuisance and did not want him to stay with us for very long. I cannot recall all of the conversation, but she did tell him that he should try and get a train back to where he lived. The male dream character (whose name I cannot recall), so I will call him AAA asked me to look up train times between Norwich (where I currently live) and Sheringham (where I am from) on my mobile phone for him. I started to look for the train times and when I realised he actually wanted to book a ticket online, so I told him that he should have asked me to go to the train ticket booking website (Trainline.com - which is actually the same website you would use to check the train times anyway in real life). I saw that there was a gap in the service between the current time (early afternoon) and 16:30 meaning he was unable to leave immediately and catch a train. He tried to convince me to allow him to stay, so I half-heartedly agreed. 

At one point in the dream he was talking to me while I was looking into the mirror above the bathroom sink. He was talking about kitchens and the fact that the kitchen in his own home was very unclean, meaning he was unable to cook food in it. I cannot recall what else happened during this conversation. 

I then laid down on the floor and AAA started to throw his (blue) mobile phone at me playfully, so that it landed in my cleavage. I thought this was pretty funny, but AAA's sister was not amused and was telling him to stop. AAA did not stop and I was wondering whether I should flirt with him with a view to having casual sex with him, because him throwing the phone at my boobs was turning me on slightly. 

I then went over to sit on the floor a short distance away. I saw a pink suitcase on the floor in front of me. It was filled with my clothes. I saw that I had a pair of new white patent leather 1970s-style platform ankle boots (see below image which is almost identical to the boots seen in my dream). I picked these out of the suitcase and I noticed that they were graffiti-ed with some kind of marker pen. Some of the graffiti on the boots was in orange permanent marker pen and some was in black marker pen. The orange was patterns and doodles and very messy. This had been done by AAA. The black was smaller, and written words and done by myself. I was worried that the boots were ruined as I had not had a chance to wear them yet. I took a cloth and some cleaning fluid and found that I was able to wipe the graffiti off quite easily - the orange graffiti put on the shoes by AAA was actually far easier to wipe off than the black writing I had put on the boots. However, I was disappointed to see that the sole of the boot started to detach from the upper part. I wondered if they were poorly made because they were cheap. I then saw that when the platform heel and sole fell off the boots were actually rollerskates underneath, which had been modified with the platform heel. I was annoyed as I did not want to rollerskate. I cannot recall anything else about this dream.

Extra Information: 
No Vitamin B6 taken

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• None of note

Dreamsigns: 

• I lived in a random house with a female dream character
• The events with the white boots

Day Residue: 

• On the day of this dream I had seen my boss had a blue mobile phone case
• On the day of this dream I had been discussing the state of dirty student kitchens in the course of my part-time job
• On the day of this dream I had been looking at some instagram photos of a girl with very large boobs
• A long time ago, I watched a video by my favourite Youtuber, Grav3yardgirl, who had a pair of white platform heeled patent leather boots (exactly the same as in my dream) - and she was considering decorating them with marker pen - so my dream seemed to replicate aspects of this
• I have a pair of boots which have holes between the upper part and the soles which annoys me as I have not been able to find a similar pair

Waking Reactions: 
This was a long and quite complex, vivid dream for an afternoon nap. I actually enjoyed this dream a lot.

Dream 903

'Vague Time Travelling'

Date: 31 January 2018

Time: 23:30 - 07:45

Type of dream: Normal dream
Dream recall: Weak recall 

This dream was part of my current Dream Incubation Experiment - Anakin Skywalker Dream. Please click HERE for my post on the Dream Incubation Experiment, the Methodology I am using (with instructions for those who also want to attempt to incubate their own dream) and links to my previous Dream Incubation Experiments and previous Star Wars-themed dreams. On that post you will also find an Index for all recorded dreams which take place during this experiment.

Scene 1: An Unknown Interior - Time Unknown
I am not sure where I was, but it was an interior and probably a house, although I do not recall enough about this dream to give any details. I was sitting on a bed and my Mum was present. There was something related to a task or an educational course I was supposedly on - I had some assignment to complete, although my recollection is extremely vague. My Mum and I were looking at some paperwork, which was typed words and charts on long strips of paper. At some point while we were discussing the paperwork, I was aware other (unrecalled) dream characters were also present in the room.

I was aware that if I touched the charts printed on the strips of paper in a certain way I could time travel, but only by going back in time. I was rubbing the chart with my index finger - stroking it. I was glad that I had learned this skill, as it seemed intrinsic to the assignment I had been given. I did not actually seem to time travel in the dream, I just knew that I could.

I cannot recall anything else about this dream.

Extra Information: 
100 mg of Vitamin B6

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• None of note

Dreamsigns: 

• I was able to travel back in time by touching charts on paper in a certain way

Day Residue: 

• On the day of this dream I had been watching SomeOrdinaryGamers on Youtube - the Deep Web Browsing series. One of the websites featured on a video claimed that time travel was possible and Mutahar Anas (host of the channel) was discussing time travel
• On the day of this dream I had been using my parody Twitter account to post about Anakin Skywalker wishing he could travel back in time and save himself from turning to the Darkside/Darth Vader and having flashbacks to his traumatic past life

Waking Reactions: 
There is not much to say about this dream, as despite taking Vitamin B6, I had very weak recall. 

DREAM INCUBATION EXPERIMENT - ANAKIN SKYWALKER DREAM

Whenever my dreamwork has lapsed or needs some form of revitalisation, I tend to do a Dream Incubation Experiment to reinvigorate and kickstart the process and encourage me to pay more attention to my dreams and record-keeping. I have undertaken a number of Dream Incubation Experiments since the inception of this Blog, and before I recorded and published my dreams, I often experimented with dream incubation, since early childhood when I first learned that some people are able to control (or more specifically, train their minds/plant the seed) their dream content. Many of my previous Dream Incubation Experiments have failed or had limited success. 

I decided that my new Dream Incubation Experiment should return to a theme which actually spontaneously occurs in many of my normal dreams - Star Wars. I feel that due to my everyday waking exposure to the Star Wars fandom, incubating a dream of this nature should be relatively easy. More specifically, I am going to attempt to incubate a dream about Anakin Skywalker - who is a regular dream character in my dreams and someone I find very desirable. I am not going to attempt to incubate a specific 'narrative' for the Anakin Skywalker dream - I am going to let my subconscious make that choice for me.

See the bottom of post for Index of dreams which take place during this Dream Incubation Experiment.

I will do the following to incubate my chosen dream theme:

• Perform the MILD Technique for lucid dreaming on a daily basis. If this dream is a lucid dream, it will therefore be a DILD (Dream-Initiated/Induced Lucid Dream). However, lucidity is not a specific aim of this Dream Incubation Experiment - if it happens during the course of the experiment, it will be a happy eventuality, not an intended result I am working towards.
• Incorporate elements of Tholey's Combined Technique for lucid dreaming, which has been reviewed as the most successful (cognitive) method for lucid dream induction and works well in conjunction with MILD, which is based on similar cognitive programming of the mind. I will adapt the key steps of critical reflection, intention and auto-suggestion so that I not only encourage myself to become lucid, but use these as a way of incubating my desired dream theme.
• Use visual aids - such as a written reminder of my specific question - as well as immersing myself in material relevant to my dream incubation during my waking hours. I will also keep the written prompt for my dream incubation under my pillow and make sure I read it before going to sleep each night.
• Where possible, I will perform the Wake-Back-to-Bed method.
• Incorporate my chosen dream theme in both my daily reality checks (15 - 20 per day) by thinking clearly and positively about my incubated dream theme after each reality check.
• Train myself to spot dreamsigns when reflecting on my Dream Journal entries each day following a dream.
• Meditate on my incubated dream theme for at least 10 minutes before sleep and perform specific affirmations alongside the normal MILD Technique/Tholey's Combined Technique ones ('I will lucid dream about [incubated dream theme] tonight, and I will remember it') - this should also encourage successful dream recall.
• Use Dream Visualisation before sleep - using my previous dreams based on the incubated dream theme as inspiration.
• 100 - 150 mg of 'lucid dream supplement' Vitamin B6 (2/3 x 50 mg pills) where I am able to remember to do so before sleep - I will specifically note when I have taken this supplement.

Here are previous Dream Incubation Experiments I have undertaken on this Blog:

• The 14 Day Dream Incubation Experiment - Kurt Cobain Dream - varying success
• The 14-Day Dream Incubation Experiment - The 'Dream Town' Dream - which was successful on Day 14 and involved a lucid dream - Dream 430
• The Marilyn Monroe Dream Incubation Experiment (this link takes you to an Index Page for this Dream Incubation Experiment which I also summarised in Youtube videos) - which was initially intended to be a 7 day experiment, but was extended to 14 days and was successful on Day 13 following a lucid false awakening - Dream 325
• The Freudian Therapy Session Dream Incubation Experiment - which was unsuccessful, but was outlined in another Youtube video
• The 14-Day Dream Incubation Experiment - Art Star! (this link takes you to an Index Page with detailed analysis of every dream which occurred during my experiment)
• The Dream Incubation Experiment - Serial Killer Dream
• The Dream Incubation Experiment - Eminem/Marshall Mathers III Dream
• The Dream Incubation Experiment - What Does My Heart Desire? - varying results

Here is a list of Star Wars-themed dreams I have had since I started this Blog (note I have not included dreams which were indirectly influenced by Star Wars, but do not include Star Wars content, nor dreams in which actors from Star Wars appear, but not as their Star Wars characters).

• Dream 900 - 'Do You Know This Man?' (Anakin Skywalker)
• Dream 902 - 'Sex With Luke Skywalker' (Luke Skywalker)

It is actually really interesting to see all my Star Wars-themed dreams in a list. It's obvious from a mere glance that the majority of dreams feature Anakin Skywalker and that both the earliest Star Wars dream I could find - and my most recent - both focus on Luke Skywalker.

Dream 902

'Sex with Luke Skywalker'

Date: 30 January 2018

Time: 04:30 - 10:00

Type of dream: Vivid dream
Dream recall: Strong recall 

Scene 1: A Hotel/Boarding-House/Dorm Room - Day
I was in some kind of hotel/boarding-house or perhaps a university dorm-room - it was not exactly clear. At one point I thought there might be 2 rooms, as although the room remained the same in style/furniture, at different points in this dream (I am not sure when exactly), the bed changed position and was against a different side of the room. The room was pretty basic - there was a single bed, a wardrobe and some drawers. It was not hugely dissimilar to my own bedroom in real life. It was day and I was aware that I was only in this place temporarily - I was staying there on a visit.

There was some reference to ironing clothing (I think I felt like I needed to do it, but did not want to) and at some point I stepped outside the room and saw other dream characters standing around in a hallway which was lined with doors, making it seem more like a hotel/university halls of residence. I did not know the other dream characters and I felt a bit lonely. I went to lay down in my bed and I was facing the wall.

Shortly after this, I felt another person's presence in the room. They got into bed and started spooning me. I then became aware that this was Luke Skywalker, as he appears in Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017). I was aware that Luke wanted to have sex with me, and without saying anything, I indicated that I was consenting by reaching behind me and trying to undo the fly of his trousers - which were jeans. Luke started removing his jeans so that we could have sex. He seemed able to have sex with me without me removing (or recalling removing) any of my own clothing. The sex was really enjoyable, although I am not sure if I experienced a wet dream in real life. The experience felt very pleasurable in the dream though, and I was disappointed that it did not last very long (it wasn't as if Luke prematurely ejaculated - the sex seemed to last for a few minutes, I just wanted it to continue). Luke then told me that he had some business to deal with, but he would soon return and spend some more time with me. He seemed genuine, but for some reason I did not believe or trust him.

I was feeling anxious being alone in the room, so I kept looking out into the hallway to see if Luke was coming back. At one point I was walking down the corridor and saw some more dream characters. I tried to start a conversation with them, but I cannot recall what happened.

I went back to my own room to wait for Luke, and I looked in a mirror which was mounted on the wall near the door to my room. I saw that I did not have any eyebrows and all my eyelashes were white. This did not make me feel happy.

Luke did return and I was really glad to see him. I asked him to not leave me alone again, but he said that he would need to keep leaving as he was a Jedi and had matters to attend to, but he would make sure he saw me in between. I felt sexually obsessed with him.

I cannot recall anything else about this dream.

Extra Information: 
None of note

Recurrent Dream Themes: 

• Star Wars characters 

Dreamsigns: 

• I was having sex with Luke Skywalker

Day Residue: 

• I have been in hotels where the person I am staying with has had to leave and I have been alone and bored
• On the day of this dream I was tweeting using an alternative Twitter account I have - and Mark Hamill (the ACTUAL LUKE SKYWALKER!) liked my tweet, which was really exciting for me! He is an awesome person and I was happy he paid me a second of attention
• A few days before this dream I had been watching the latest Petscop videos on Youtube. Previously, when staying in a hotel, I had shown my friend R3A some of the Petscop analysis videos on Youtube. In the 'game' there is reference to a character named 'Care' who is not growing eyebrows. This has been analysed as being a reference to child abuse of some kind
• I have been applying vaseline to my eyebrows and eyelashes before sleep to help them grow and also stay in place
• Once, I was having sex with someone who knew I love Star Wars, but instead of role-playing as Anakin (the character I would most like to have sex with), he said: 'Imagine I'm Luke Skywalker' which I found funny as I have never felt/expressed a desire to have sex with Luke Skywalker and he had made a mistake 

Waking Reactions: 
This dream was really enjoyable - other than being anxious about Luke returning to me and the loss of my eyebrows. I really enjoyed the dream sex with Luke.
