So last night I think I had my first LD. I've been working really hard to do reality checks IWL and generally raise my self-awareness. Just before bed I popped a couple of Vitamin B6 and did my pre-sleep rituals and mantras.

Ahead of me is the most vivid and lushly green expanse of field I have ever seen. In the middle distance a huge roman stone viaduct dominates the view. It's beautiful. I decide to look around me. I notice row upon row of Roman Empirical soldier in full battle gear or "dressed up to the nines" as I so eloquently put in my DJ. At this point I got the fledgling idea that something may not be quite right. This prompted me to look at myself. Low and behold I'm dressed in the same fashion. Leather skirt-y thing (There's a technical and precise term for the history books if ever I heard one) and sword included.

At this point I decide to carry out the reality check I'd been doing for the past week or so. I didn't even get to count my fingers though because just looking at my hands I discovered they were matte black and brittle. I remember thinking that my hands were graphite. I basically had two huge pencils for appendiges. At this point I became fully lucid. And was awash with euphoria. What a feeling.

At this point I proceeded to get so hyped I couldn't control my dream. I exited the dream. It could have even been a false awakening, I'll be doing RC's every time I wake up now just to check, apparently a very good way to get lucid from a FA.


I would love to know if this was a Lucid Dream. I'm pretty sure it is but i'd love some second opinions. Also some advice on where to go now and how to improve dream control.

Many thanks Dudes
