Thread: I have made progress!

Well, I haven't really been working on Lucid Dreaming in a while, but this morning I really think I got somewhere. I would say I attained lucidity once or twice depending on how you look at it, but the sad thing is I don't remember much of the dream prior to being lucid, but the bits where I was lucid I do remember.

The first thing I remember was being near an old castle tower type building. It was surrounded by trees and I think there was a lake near also. I don't know how it happened, but all of a sudden I realized I was dreaming. I called out "I want to make this Lucid" or something along those lines, and it gave me a slight bit of control. I managed to make myself fly up round the castle, and started throwing fireballs at it. I wanted to make the fireballs explode and blow up parts of the castle, but for whatever reason my dream wasn't allowing it and then i lost lucidity.

Later on in the following dream, a similar situation occurred. I was in a room, red in colour, a bit old looking. It had windows looking out into a kind of alleyway as all i could see was another wall. All of a sudden I realized i was dreaming and once again called out to become lucid. It worked once again but this time it lasted a little bit longer. I walked up to one of the windows and touched the frame, examining the texture and colour of it and was amazed at how real it was. I also tapped on the glass of the window to check if it was real and it made the same noise that a pane of glass in real life would make.

The scene then changed to some kind of shop. I had money in my hand and was rubbing it to get the texture of it, once again I was amazed at the realism. I went up to the counter and paid for something which i cannot remember. I started talking to the woman behind the counter about the fact that I was lucid dreaming and that my dream was an amazing "Dimension", and asked her how long she had resided in it. She replied with "30 seconds" in a French accent and immediately I woke up smiling, at the fact that I am getting closer to my goal.
