Conscious mind-eye seeing of an uncontrollable dream

[SaxtonHale]

The other night I had a very strange experience. I had 3 dreams that I can recall, and the first one was relatively "normal". When I woke up after my dream and proceeded to try WILD, it worked! However, my HH was not in my normal visual field. It was more like it was in my imagination in my mind's eye if you will... My dream proceeded to build around those and I entered it, but I wasn't able to control myself at all. I was sort of in a trance. I knew I was asleep in my bed, because I could see the black of my eyelids and feel my bed, but I was in a dream at the same time. It was more like a day dream than anything, but it lasted for around 50 minutes. I was self aware, but I was unable to control any of my actions within my dream. It was as if I were watching, consciously, as I had a non-lucid dream and was unable to intervene or really think about interacting with it. Have you ever experienced this? It was very strange, but when I recall my dreams I can remember it more vividly than my other dreams. The dream environment was also a lot more static, it wasn't constantly changing around.

Due to editing being broken, I'll just post this here. I feel it's important to note that I had two of these in a row. In between them, I experienced a deep trance-like self awareness. I'm not sure of what to make of this.
