I think it's your subconscious mind anticipating waking up from the dream. In dreams, a stray thought can manifest itself as an object or situation, instantly. I think that, once a person begins to anticipate waking up (even if he is unaware that he is dreaming, and the anticipation is only subconscious), it often manifests itself as a dream scene change (i.e.; dreaming of waking up in your bed). This is only made worse when the dream is lucid, because being consciously aware if being asleep (and subsequently being consciously aware that you'll soon be waking up) makes it much more likely that that knowledge will cause you to dream about waking up. |
