My problem is that I don't realize I'm dreaming whilst dreaming. I regularly do reality checks and keep a dream journal. What can I do to step into lucidity?
There's no final step. Most people think of lucid dreaming as though it's a physical thing where you can have it by just knowing enough about it or worse by trying hard enough. It's not a direct transfer of actions to dreams although they do happen but seldom, dreams are symbolic and it uses day actions and experiences from anything from years ago to days ago to convey a certain message or story to the dreamer. So even if the dreamer did remember to do the check and get lucid it's just a way to convey a message and story to the dreamer not entirely because of habit. Here's a link that may help you see dreams for what they are...http://interpretadream.com/index.asp...n=Custom&ID=51 so to have a lucid dream, you need to know more about how your actions affect the dream content because each person is unique and have their own dream code.
