You have a conscious effect on the dream. You decide to fly, you fly, you decide for the sky to change its color, it changes.
No I mean what is it like for the five senses touch,sight
,etc
This is a profound qustion. In each dimension of reality; waking, dreaming, astral, etc there are senses yet they take on different aspects. In the higest dimensions there are sublte aspects the of senses I am told, in an unmanifest state. In dreaming everythng is better from my experience. Beyond that is beyond me. Yoga and Tantra have a cosmology that describes the evolution of the elements and the senses from the ONE eternal reality to earth consciousness. Look it up. If you can't find anything read the book Tattwa Shuddhi, the Tantric Path of Inner Purification. It talks alot about the chakras, senses, and sublte senses and evolution of being, etc.
Hi gugvg
I was just going back and re-reading all the journal entries I made the mornings after a lucid dream, and most of them include some kind of reference to "I can't believe how real it is." While in an LD, for me anyway, everything is as real as it is in real life. While flying, I feel the wind in my hair; if I land on wet grass, I can feel the temperature of the grass and how it feels between my toes, etc. Really, the only way I knew in my LD's that I was actually dreaming was by doing RC's (mainly the nose check) every few minutes. Beyond that, it's as real as can be. Hope this helps...
I'm quite in-experienced really but I feel emotions quite strongly. But also, just RC, and if your RC is positive then you are lucid dreaming. I was kinda like that too. I pinched my nose and breathed right through it but I was doubting it a bit. Then there was a fridge where there was meant to be an elavator and I did a whole bunch of abnormal things after that so when i woke up and reflected this, I really knew I was dreaming. I'm not so aware of the 6 senses really cause I haven't had many lucids...
thank you that answers my question dead on :D. And thank you too 156curses that answers the another question I hadQuote:

I've also done things that affected senses that wouldn't normally be affected by the thing that I am doing. Once I heard something that left a metallic taste in my mouth.
Yah I have not even experienced any other sense other than touch, and when I did, I would say it felt 70 to 80 % as real as waking life, it was probably just because I expected it to not feel real though. Expection is one of the many keys.
