is there anything odd about my lucid dreams?

[lily moonsong]

This is a lucid dream I had.. but I was wondering if maybe I was in the astral plane for part of it??  (Not RTZ)

July 25th, Friday (waning gibbous) nap: 9am

God!!!  The First thing I remember is that I wrote like 2 pages of the dream while I was still dreaming.  Now I'm finally awake and I realize I haven't written anything!!  Gahhh!!  I know the dream was chronological, but I remember bits and parts from the dream, but I don't remember the order it happened in, or how I got there (because of the initial shock and frustration of waking up with an empty notebook beside me).  I think I started out in a poor neighborhood.  I was in a college dorm convenience store, but all around the dorm was a poor person's neighborhood that I've never seen before in my waking life.  The boy working downstairs knew that I was getting food for my friend "J", and he was really nice (poor person's hospitality) and he helped me make an icecream sundae, a drink, and a sausage and pancake wrap to take to my friend.  I used the microwave and was about to go upstairs to my college friend's room, but he bumped into me in the hallway.  I told him we were dreaming, and I flew him to the grocery store to run errands.... (I'll talk about the grocery store later)... but right now, I wanna talk about what happened when I got back from the grocery store...

So, when I got back from the grocery store, we went back to the convenience store, because it's the on the first floor of my friend's dorm/apartment.  It's too small to fly in, so I decided I was gonna do some tricks on foot.  "J" was like, "I wanna see you turn this store into a jungle!"  So I got down on one knee and stretched my hands forward as I said, "NATURE!" loudly, and envisioned a tree growing through the floortiles. ... Nothing happened.  So then, after several attempts, I concluded, "I guess earth magick is not for me! ha ha."  Then, I decided to try to move something.  I located a thick lock of hair on the counter, so I pointed at it, and tried to move it.  The movement was minimal, it just kinda twitched a little! lol.  So then, I used both of my hands and swayed them in the motion I wanted the hair to move.. and it worked beautifully, the hair got flung all over the store by my control.  So I was like, "I guess I can do air magick!  ha ha! Lets see if I can do water magick!"  My friends watched me, as I grabbed a cup of water.  I envisioned the water swirling up and out of the cup.  I became one with the water.  It swirled up like an upsetting miniature tornado.  Then, I tried to get all the water to bounce out of the cup.  It made little water spheres, and the bounced out, and splashed onto the counter, but the process was too slow, and I wanted something a little more dramatic.  So I shouted "EXPLOSION!" and concentrated on all of the water being splashed out of the cup.. but nothing happened.  I remember thinking to myself that my magick works better in slow subtle efforts... in dreams that is.  I also remember thinking, "hmm, I wonder If in real life, my natural elements are water and air.. not earth?"  I also remember joking with my college friend, saying, "I wish astral money carried over into the real world!!  We can spend real money on the astral plane, but we can't spend astral money on the physical plane."  *pout*  He nodded his head.

On the Way to the grocery store:

I have a strong feeling that there's stuff I'm forgetting, but here's the stuff I remember.  I carried T or J (I can't remember who, because the people in my dreams transmorph into other people alot) over the town, while I was flying to the grocery store, so he could run some errands.  He was afraid of heights!  lmao.  On the way there, I saw another girl flying with her arms straight out.  There was a young girl in pajamas holding on to her.  It looked like she was helping the girl have an OBE.  I remembered her from somewhere - not sure where.  (She was late thirties, long thick dirty blonde hair, average build.  The girl was younger, around 15, with blue pajamas).  I also noticed a lot of people walking around under me, who looked like zombies.  I recalled reading on astralpulse.com that people on the astral plane who don't realize they're there appear like zombies.  (or maybe that's just what my brain wants me to think they look like.)

At the Grocery Store:

I don't remember what I bought.  But I remember the last thing I looked at was a big bag of rippled potato chips on the top shelf.  All I had on me, was 2 bucks and some change, and the huge bag of chips was only $1.09.  Another girl was trying to get the chips, but she stood on a stool to get them, and she was too short, and she made a huge mess and wasted red paint all over everything!  The store manager came out, and started a big dramatic fiasco!  Then, he saw me, and I told him.. "it's okay, we're all dreaming."  And he started making moves on me.  I wanted to run, but something told me, "it's okay."  After he embraced me, he turned into Dougie!  ^_^  I was like.. yayness!  We made out on the floor of the grocery store, surrounded by red paint.  (Hey.. I wonder if this has anything to do with the picture of the grocery store in my profile?)  I remember us looking up at each other, and smoothing our tongues over our teeth to get rid of the bedtime plaque taste before making out! hahaha!  Then, I also remember getting pounded in my behind.. (blush).  Then, there's a big gap of the dream that I don't remember.

While I was at some Weird Neighborhood:

Don't remember how I got there.  There were lots of Buddhist people outside, they had weird clothes, and some of them had face paint.  My dream magick didn't work around them, so I left and went back to the poor neighborhood.  This 30 year old black lady started complaining to me about her marital problems.  "J" was there.  A lot of this part I don't remember, it's close to the time I woke up.

What I was doing when I woke up:

I was in the poor neighborhood.  And I was writing down my entire dream in my notebook.  Then, I woke up.  I was like, "Awww man!  You mean, I spent the last 15 min. of my dream recalling what I just dreamed about, but now that I'm REALLY awake, I gotta start all over from the beginning???!!!!!"

************************************************************

When I opened my eyes from the dream, I looked at my notebook's emptiness.  With already sore hands, I grudgingly started rewriting down everything I remembered from the dream.

*****************************************************************

The entire dream was really clear, and I know it wasn't RTZ projection, because I've done that before, and it feels different... but I was just wondering,, if there's anything different about my lucid dream, and what I could do to help go from a lucid dream to an RTZ projection?  (my head and heart hurts a lot when I try to do RTZ projection)

How is it you correlate someone being really nice as to being poor? In your post you said someone was being really nice to you and you seem to relate to their being nice and hospitable to you to the fact that they are poor. I dont consider myself poor and when I am at work I bust my butt to help our customers. Some would actually say I was being really nice. They have said it before. Does that mean I am poor and was showing "poor persons hospitality"?
