Paralysis

I cannot remember many dreams tonight I did the "hold close the right nostril" thing and tried to WILD in as I fell asleep. I end up in something like my room. There is this picture, black with something like a partial, dim moon superimposed over it. I hear words, something like, "no lucidity, partial lucidity, lucidity." At "no lucidity" the image is black. At "full lucidity" you see the partial dim moon. I recall actually walking past the images, as though they were suspended over my sleeping body, and seeing an seeing them in layers. I also saw my body, just a shape in the darkness. I guess I fell asleep, then there was this rushing, sinking sensation after I saw the partial moon. I felt myself sitting down and rushed out of my own body at the realization I was lucid. Then a strange thing happened. I feel my real right physical eye literally pop open, just before I am about to leave the room and go exploring. I remember wondering, "why, if I am lucid, are not things more detailed?" Now I still feel as if I am sinking, I feel my whole body vibrates, and I hear a noise, something like a shrill whistling tea kettle and a large car driving slowly by. The noise fades. I open my eyes, thinking I had WILDed it without knowing it. I lay perfectly still. I was sure that I was in sleep paralysis. But I found I could move around. I swallowed, not really a reflex (my mouth was dry) and decided to wake up to write this. I cannot remember any other dreams, and it seems like this is so the single dream is emphasized. I get the feeling it is extremely important, that being told something, instructed or taught in some way, here. The moon felt like the first time I recognized a dream sign and gained lucidity. It felt like <PERSON> which I have never used or set aside as <PERSON> before, also as if someone was giving me a Dream Sign I never had before. It also feels like a process, the process of gaining lucidity. Like a literal symbol of the process. Finally I feel as if this is something I should share for some reason. Body Hopping - 9-10 a.m. So I drift in and out of semi-lucidity here while trying WILD. I started simply in the body of someone. I remember their hands opening doors and how weird it felt. (During this or later) |First| I am at a party. I am here with some friends, but they are in disguises. I burn the top half of my dress (I guess it is a blouse) a long with their disguises. I feel a vicious sort of revenge here. I wearing any red dress with a low top. I think I have long raven black or brown hair. I want to look prettier than them for once. I realize I am in a female's body and looked down to see my breasts, and a send my senses down to feel the absence of my male parts. I am seeing things through the eyes of the girl, and when I realize I am dreaming I end up (or maybe I was already in the process of body hopping) Anyhow I end up in the body of what I assume to be a little boy. It is a night in the city and I am running to the minivan. For some reason I take note of the people in the front seats. I think I see two men. Another boy my brother, is in the seat behind the driver. We drive straight through some trash in an alley. I still remember how strange it felt for me to run with my tiny legs. I never tried to control any of these dreams I just sat back and watched. Noise disturbances were constantly disturbing me.
