/yume/ - Dreams

i remember now! the dream cuts to a view of the freighter and a city, all of which explodes. the girl swims to a deck from where the freighter once was. the look on her face was a mixture of loneliness and catharsis. she slumps up against a wall, and some kind of powder (gunpowder?) slowly falls from the sky as she leans harder into the wall. cut to black, dream ends. it was surreal! i've had it in the back of my mind for a while, what do you think could it mean?

note- the scenarios on the right side of the map were put there because they are all incredibly vivid. they're stories my sleeping mind creates, they're a part of me.

That's really cool! When you re-visit an area, do you experience it as being pretty much, or even exactly, the same area as last time or is it more a strong sense of it being close or similar to the previous one?

most areas are more or less consistent in scale and structure, while some are pretty much ever-changing. an example would be the warped highschool- sometimes the building has up to five floors, sometimes it has a massive basement complete with a boiler, sometimes the classrooms and hallways are cartoonishly long, sometimes the library spans multiple rooms, sometimes the library is the size of a toolshed, etc.

>Or maybe one that was fragmented and you kept going back to after waking up?
Definitely had one of these, but I don't remember anything of it.

Not really, but I had this one time where I was in sort of a boss fight and every time I died, I'd get booted out of the dream due to the sudden fear of dying (because it felt real)
Luckily, though, I was sleeping in such a position that the sun wasn't shining in my eyes, so I could force myself back and retry the exact same battle but with more knowledge

Feel like I had one the other night but I can't fucking remember anything about it other than feeling like I had been asleep for like a week when I finally got up.

Not in that kind of way. I had a couple of dreams that are "cut" to seem like they are taking place through multiple days if you know what i mean. It might be the fact that you can have multiple dreams in one night and they maybe blend into eachother at the end?
Definetely something i can relate to with my own dream experiences.

I have definitely had dreams that would resume from another dream from the previous night. I don't think have a single dream that feels like it lasts for longer than the time that has passed in real life is possible, at least not technically. It has already been proven empirically that dream time roughly equals real time because our eye movements in dreams are in sync to actual eye movement. All of that extra time are probably just false memories the mind has cooked up. Having false memories of having done something is no different than having actually done it, as far as the mind is concerned.

Yeah, there are a few locations that don't exist IRL but I have seen repeatedly in dreams.

Same, I haven't visited it for years, but I've always had a persistent dreamworld. It had complex stores, arcades, bridges, even bus lines, all of it was always persistent, always the same. I even had routes inside the giant mall to check the interesting stores and shelves…magazines, toys, videogames…stopping by some food shops or even having dinner there…

The city is pretty big, it had shady neighborhoods, open areas, river, bridge, amusement parks…

The most insane thing is that it had metro and rail stations, and you could take the train to go to some close mountain area, with at least 3 persistent villages, with farms and shit, rivers, ruins and old roads in the woods by the mountains. It's ridiculous how big and consistent it is.

YOU'RE GOING TO THE DREAM WORLD WHEN YOU DIE

I still have recurring dreams about high school.The most common type of it that i'm walking down the hallway all alone then suddenly a car appears driving towards me.

I had tornado dreams as a little kid but then that shifted to fucking nuclear holocaust dreams where I always have to hide in my basement and pray that the shallow room will offer me some protection from the blast and radiation.

I've so many nightmares and wetdreams.

I've a lot of dreams about being spanked and executed and other horrific things.. Once I was stuck in a wall as girls set my ass on fire.

Once I was at a carnival I was twelve. My family was on the merry go round, when my younger sister told me to share my cotton candy and I said no so she shouted "mawwm!" My mom yanked me from the bright yellow toy boat and sat in it sideways. The seat was low to the ground so her knees were a bit higher than her hips. She flipped me down over her lap and spanked me in front of everyone, my belly on her lap and my whole body horizontally dancing as everyone cheers me being spanked. After a few rotations, she flipped me face up and yanked my feet in the air, then pulled all my bottoms off and I instantly screamed in fear and covered my part, and she held my feet in the air and waited unil we rotated near a trashcan, she ttossed my bundled up clothes at it then continued spanking me. She spanked me like that for a few minutes, then turned me back around but differently, so I was face down again but facing her other side, and she kept spanking me like that for the rest of the ride. My sisters laughed and made gestures and jokes, but the worst was when my sisters started chanting something along the ride's melody.
Ever since that, whenever they heard that music, they chanted it and sometimes played it just to sing to it at random. They basically made it a tradition to punish me at festivals.

I get them once in a while. one time I dreamt them for a whole week

I should probably write up a guide sometime on how to do it, seeing as I do it constantly for both meditations and actual sleep

Just think about whether you are dreaming or not every once in a while. A little reality check here or there during the day wouldn't hurt, especially when you are going to sleep or waking up from a dream, saves you from false awakenings or wasted dream time trying to have lucid dreams in dreams.

During the day ask yourself if your awake then your body trains itself to notice when its asleep and not asleep.

haha, oh wow.

I've been there.
that's so frustrating.
basically what every other anon said… dream check, all day, erry day.

Still having trouble with this OP?

I'm waiting for the drawing, anon. I love squids, they're my favorite creature. Any more dreams since you've posted?

Now lets make it a cute loli.

I in a way have a protector as well

mines a snake…………..

Very phallic. You might be gay.

So the sentient black vines swallowing OPs parents were symbolic of sentient black dicks swallowing OPs parents?

>>2620
I think it's more like sentient black men fondling OP's parents with their monster cock right before giving him a piece of the action, but your interpretation has interesting implications.

Hi guys. I'm noy sure why I haven't been able to recall more touhou dreams but I suppose it isn't a coincidence.

I will use various forms of meditation to get the ball rolling again.

I've finally had another after this long hiatus.

In actuality this dream occurred about a week and a half ago but I didn't get around to writing it here yet.

139:

I remember being at the side of my old house, it had a really long driveway that extended past the house and into a garage in our backyard. There was a car parked in the part near the front of my home and I remember there was other people there but everything else became blurry when I gazed upon and beheld Yuuka there in front of the car. All I can remember from there is that we ran to eachother, embracing and engaging in a kiss, before I closed my eyes, I could feel myself leaving involuntarily from that scenario even though I wanted into last forever. I woke up after a few moments of the closed eye visuals.

I don't remember much, but I had a dream that my dad and I were out in some kind of strangez run-down, abandoned villiage (kind of like the Barracks Settlement but more primitave) and we went into some antique shop. Some Touhous were selling Christmas trees based off their colour schemes (Remi's was pink/purple/red, Reimu's was red/white, etc.), I had a hell of a time deciding which tree I wanted but I ended up getting Nitori's, which was green and blue. I can't remember what happened after I decided which tree I wanted.
