Was this Lucid dreaming?

**Sain** · 09-19-2005 06:12 PM

Today, I was dreaming about:
I was going with friend to school to check his grades, when we were crossing the street I noticed an strange car and I though : "Hey that car is too strange, it occupies all the road, and its coming toward us", that after that I say:"Why are we walking to school, it is too far, even if we dont use the car at leat we should be in a bus or taxi!" after that I did a reality check (I´m still a newbie with LD, so I still practice reality checks) it was the breath through nose, I was succesful, I was like: "OMG I´m dreaming" , and once again I though about what I could do in a dream, but I also , I dont know I said well lets go to school and check the grades (I mean I was still going to help my friend) . So I was wishing please the school should be nearer, and we appeared near it, then he ](friend) went to check the grades and I saw my brother and we started playing but I was still thinking about wow I can do alot of flips and I can jump high.

My question is:

Was i really lucid? Or my mind tricked me? Because I though "Wow I´m dreaming" but I didnt think something like: "What time is it in real life?" or "Is school time?" .

Thanks ^^

if youre ever really lucid there will be no question about it. although it is possible to dream about being lucid, i think you could have gotten lucid and just lost lucidty at some point.

That's the only thing that matters. If you know you're dreaming, it's a lucid dream. If you think "Hmm, I might be dreaming" instead, but don't realize that it really is a dream, it's a semi-lucid dream.

As Jay Dawg said, you propably lost your lucidity soon after you became aware. That has happened to me many times - the dream just takes you.

Ok thanks, It was strange (the dream), but at least I now know that I can do a succesful reality check

Thanks for your answers

Yeah. Lucid is having the knowledge that you are dreaming. If you knew you were dreaming, it was lucid. If dreaming you knew you were, then lucid it was.
