I noticed lately that my feelings in regular dreams are getting stronger,such as when I jumped in a pool or got stuck in a spaceship.I'm not doing anything to try to lucid dream,but it seems like the sensations are getting stronger.I'm also becoming more aware of my surroundings,the landscape seems more vivid,and the memories I had from them are stronger too.
Maybe I'm one baby step closer to lucid dream?
Sounds like it :). General awareness, both external and internal, are key to lucid dreaming so if you find that awareness is becoming more present in your dreams then you are definitely closer to lucidity. If you want to take another step try becoming more aware in waking life both as a whole throughout the day and also by using ADA or SAT. ADA (all day awareness) and SAT (sporadic awareness technique) is just taking 10-20 minutes out of your day and becoming hyper-aware, becoming as in-tune with your senses as you can so that you are aware of everything around you. These help immensely in attaining lucidity.
Remember to do reality checks as much as you can remember to do especially if you see something out of the ordinary or something not quite right. After a while you will start to do them without any type of conscious trigger which will hopefully carry over to your dreams aswell. Markers are sometimes good for this. Every time some certain event happens do a rc. I used to have a thing where every time I saw an attractive girl I would do an rc. They would then be in all sorts of trouble if I was dreaming if you know what I mean ;) Be diligent with your checks, I have missed many oppurtunites to become lucid because I was not concentrating enough on an rc. I tend to think to myself this feels like a dream so I do a half arsed check and don't realise I was right it was a dream until I wake up, very annoying.
