Dreams

[whobawhats]

I actually had a very interesting dream a few weeks ago, I don't think I ever told someone about it.
I tried to get into lucid dreaming back then. I didn't have too much success, but from time to time I managed to get lucid and sometimes I could even control certain parts of my dreams.

So before that night, I had one of those talks with my parents, and that left my mood in the dumpster.
I managed to get lucid that night, but I guess my mind mirrored my shitty mood and I subconsciously summoned creepy, dark shadow figures, that really freaked me out. My attempts at making them disappear were useless, I couldn't really form a clear thought. So that was pretty horrifying.
What happened next is that I noticed a nice field of grass just beside me, with Rarity standing on it. I walked up to her, and we just hugged. Those creepy things that were haunting me were completely gone, and it was just really calming and relaxing. It felt really good, like something I had never done before and didn't realize I needed it until now. After that I managed to slip into normal dreams that I don't remember again.

I think what was happening is that I desperately tried to summon something comforting and peaceful, just something that would ease my mind, and the first thing I could come up with was Rarity. I didn't really actively control it, but it happened on a very subconscious level.
So I think it's quite interesting that my mind links Rarity with a calming and in general just a "good" feeling.

I'm glad to see that just the thought of her was able to make you feel so much better and end such an awful dream. Just shows how much they can alter our moods.

Lucid dreaming has always been something i've wanted to get into, but I could never quite get there atleast for long. I guess the one time I did Glimmer was in it so there's that at least.
