I would describe it as looking at yourself from a third person perspective.
Almost as if you may be hovering off to the side, watching the dream scene and yourself.
What is hard to explain is that sometimes you are in a mental state in two different places. Sometimes you are just the observer of yourself.

For me, I use the term "3rd person" to apply to any dream in which I'm passively watching stuff happen, and not actually in the dream myself.

For me a 3rd person LD is rare but could be when I'm watching my dream self &/or DCs whilst also sometimes being them at the same time, and aware that its a dream - a bit like directing a film utilising and switching between different camera angles, whilst also being the actor(s) (as Howetzer said - kinda hard to describe but I think we are taking about the same thing.)

I suppose, now I come to think about it, this is most dreams ...

However 99.99% of the time my 'big' fully lucid dreams are 1st person - or rather I automatically go into 1st person when I realise I'm dreaming.

I don't always have a body though
