Today's dream: Delicious food & a small lucid bit where I decided to just destroy the world

in #dreams6 years ago

We were at a food party and I was basically spectating the creation process for a while. Most other people were also spectating looking at a table in the middle. On the table were a few dishes with already made stuff, and the chef was a small brunette girl.

She was very proud of her black beans. That was one of the small dishes. Below each dish, there was curly lettuce, like dish -> lettuce -> content. The other dishes contained green beans, onions cut up in very small bits, and other things I can't remember. There were at least 7 little dishes, 4 near the edge and 3 behind those.

A strange creation process

The girl decided that she would do a round of creation, so she jumped into a big bathtub that had the ingredients inside, while chatting with one of her assistants, a burly man, to check the temperature of the water and that the conditions were right. When she went in (still under the eyes of every spectator), she started "swimming" inside the bathtub (more like splashing water everywhere and stirring the water). My consciousness flew inside the bathtub to see the stirred water.

It was very stirred..., and then it flew to the point of view of the girl when she stopped once and asked her assistant to check that the conditions were right for production once again. Then I went back to myself, and I was with another girl who was pushing a dish onto me. She was at my right side and we were both either sitting or crouching. She was telling me.

Try these! They're really good for filling your arepas! Do you like them?

She gave me a small plate covered in lettuce but on the lettuce were extremely small dry green beans. They looked like annatto but dark green. I did pinch a few and tasted them and they were honestly very good and crunchy. Not for arepas, because their flavour was too intense and out of place, but for something else maybe. They were tasty like Doritos or some other thing like that.

Feeding the floor

I think I went to the table and grabbed a bit of food, because the next thing I remember is that I was carrying a little box-shaped container, like 12 x 25 centimetres. It had a liquid inside and a few ingredients from the table, including the black beans. I tasted a bit of it and was surprised to see that it wasted very well.

And the girl beside me started pushing my box off the table just a little bit for some reason, and she managed instead to tip it over to the side just enough for half the contents to drop to the ground. I was mad at her because she was being prolongedly careless and had sent half my food to the ground.

I reprimanded her as I crouched to look at the mess, and when I crouched, my body tipped and I was carrying the box, so more of the contents spilt to the ground. Then I was mad at myself and got up and looked at a box that only had like 1/9th of what it had before.

A creepy room

We went inside a room to eat. I had dropped my sweater somewhere, and also my sandals. I was sitting down on the floor when suddenly I misstepped and some device broke and threw electric sparks. I didn't mind it. I couldn't fix it and I was going to eat, so I just kept walking and sat down. One of my friends was still wandering about in the room. I don't know what she was doing, but suddenly, she tried to open the door and couldn't.

I didn't pay any attention to it. I was too focused on starting to eat. Then she yelled "heyy, the door won't open! I think we're trapped, guys!". A voice came from the roof, from what appeared to be a talking TV with a square face. It said. "Indeed, you are trapped in here". The girl asked it "But whyy" and the TV said "When you walked in here, you broke an electric device. If you leave, you might leave complain and lower our image. Therefore, you cannot leave".

I just wanted to eat, so I just stayed there and was moving stuff, never actually starting to eat. I don't even know what I was doing anymore. I was too tired to do anything, perhaps. My friends had now left me alone and were trying to find an opening. They ran all around the room until they got to the floor-to-ceiling windows that led to some sort of balcony. They found one that had a 15 cm opening and started playing with it, then some controls, and I didn't notice because I was very distracted, but they managed to open it and simply left.

I suddenly panicked because I was left alone in the creepy room. I went to grab my sweater and put on my sandals, except the sweater was on the sandals, so I put them on anyway with the sweater in-between and had a really hard time walking, but I managed. I saw that it was not a balcony but that after a short expanse of orange floor tiles (dark red under the very black night sky), there was a flight of stairs. I simply jumped downstairs and fell standing about 20 steps below. I looked up and realised this was all too absurd. You don't just run with self-tied feet and jump a 20 step flight of stairs in real life (unless you're some strange hobbyist record breaker).

Running into lucidity

I was still running after my friends, but I was thinking all of this. They were running down a flight of spiral stairs now. I decided to just jump through the middle of it. I was scared that I would lose my lucidity, so I was sort of reality checking every time I grabbed something with my hands. I kept finding things to touch with my hands to feel that I was awake. They were mostly black tubes from the stair's railing, around 15 cm wide and cold. I did this for a few storeys until I fell in a very wide expanse, as if I had jumped from a plane.

I couldn't see the ground yet. But I saw that to the front, there was a big room from which a lot of soldiers were evacuating. They were dressed more movie-like than anything I know from reality. Probably more like these imperial soldiers:

They were all also jumping as if their building was on fire (it didn't look like it was on fire or that anything was happening except lots of crazy soldiers jumping into the abyss). I kept falling, but I wanted to test my lucid-dreaming powers, so I decided I would throw lightning at them. I started gesturing with my hands for lightning to come down from the sky and strike them, but I was probably not too focused on it because nothing happened. :(

I kept falling, trying to throw bolts of lightning, until I suddenly managed to see the ground. I was like 2 km off the ground (checked Google Earth to see how many metres that distance was). It was a very beautiful expanse of land. It was all like moonlit greeneries. The houses had white walls and orange roofs, and there was a lot of green between all of them. It was my favourite tone of green. I googled a sample of this colour combination:

I love the way the blue mixes with yellowy green. There were some bits of ground that were more yellow and others that were more bluish. I still wanted to stay lucid, though I never manage it, and I was in a pickle because I was in the air and didn't know what I could do in order to stay lucid if there was nothing to touch.

The volcanic ritual

I decided to keep trying my lucid powers and wanted to create a volcanic eruption from the middle of the ground. I started moving my arms up aggressively as if I were calling lava to come out from the ground. I did it once, twice, nothing happening, but I kept at it until I saw a slight crack on the ground. It was a tiny crack of orange light in the middle of the ground between two houses.

I was looking at them diagonally (not calling the lava on me but on an expanse a few kilometres away). I kept swinging my arms up, calling the lava to spew up, once, twice, up, up, I swung hard, opening the crack, and then boom, a massive eruption like a fountain or an explosion came out, but it was so big that it reached around 5 kilometres in height in a second and was about 3 kilometres wide. It was very orange and had white bits, and I couldn't handle the tension, and didn't have anything to do in a fountain of lava, so I woke up.

Sort:  

Hahaha, nice, from swimming in pot to swimming in lava. That was really an incredible journey.

Hahaha, yes! It was really strange to see someone making food by swimming in a bathtub. It was a very broad journey indeed. :) I had many varied events happen within the same dream.

And what if all this means something? What if there is a hidden meaning to this? :P

A great read, your dreams are so vivid and dramatic :-)

If your favourite stabilisation mechanism is to touch things, but there are no things to touch: Just touch your own hands. They are always there, look at them, rub them agains each other. Looking at your hands is a powerful stabilisation and reality testing tool! Toltec practise recommends that a lot.

Aah, Toltec rub their hands. Then I will try that. I'm wondering who these Toltec are.

The Toltecs were a Mesoamerican culture, and their ancient sorcerers had a sophisticated system of practices, called that path of the pieceful warrior. Carlos Castaneda and others wrote a lot about them. I find the techniques they describe very useful.
