Rather.... odd dreams I had last night

[Kitria40]

So, I had four dreams last night, and all were pretty weird, but the two that struck me as the weirdest were the first and last one. (Maybe this needs to go in my DJ? I doubt I'd update it much though :/) The first one I dreamed that I was lucid. I never became lucid, I dreamed that I was lucid. Which must mean I really suck at reality checks. I even had multiple false awakenings... in my dream. The last one had me lying in bed with the light on, looking to the side (I had kept the light on when I went to bed due to my insomnia). I heard my father, for no discernible reason, warning me about Chi (robot girl, started reading Chobits.) I couldn't see him, but when I looked around I could see glimpses of his body transparent out of the corner of my eye. I never moved my body. And when I woke up, I was in the exact same position with my eyes in the exact same place as I had been in my dream Anybody want to share their thoughts on this? xD I found it pretty awesome/scary (the other two dreams were about school buses and a mixture of Bill Nye and hamsters)

It's common for people trying to lucid dream to have dreams that they are having lucid dreams, yet somehow it's different from actually having a lucid dream. It's also common to dream about lucid dreaming content but not actually realize you're dreaming. It might be good to get into the habit of doing a reality check whenever you talk about lucid dreaming to someone or think about it. For the second one, maybe you were partly awake and hallucinating, in sleep paralysis maybe. I had a similar experience while attempting a WILD in which I hallucinated my dad knocking on my door and asking if I'm going to the gym today. It sounded real but later I realized it must have been a hallucination because I never go to the gym and he'd have no reason to ask that.
