I may have achieved lucidity for the first time, but I really am not sure. I remember waking up around 12:30pm and trying to recall my dreams. As I was doing that, I obviously dozed off again. I remember standing in an elevator. All of a sudden I realised that I don't live in my old apartment and that I couldn't possibly be in that particular lift. I was aware that I am dreaming and I started rubbing my hands straight away. As a matter of fact I think I constantly rubbed my hands, afraid of waking up. I didn't seem to have any control over what I was doing though, and all I remember was flying. Flying through endless dream landscapes. They didn't make any sense and were pretty random, really. I remember waking up then. It was 13:20pm.
The question is, is it possible for me to dream that I am lucid simply because I have had such a great interest in inducing lucidity over the last week. I know that this may seem like a stupid question, because being lucid *is* realising you are dreaming, so if you dream that you have realised it then it's essentially the same thing, since you are dreaming anyway.
But from what I have read, lucid dreams are incredibly vivid, and the person feels as if he is awake, including tactile sensations and the ability to control what is going on. I just seemed to drift through it and it wasn't any more vivid than a normal dream. Is that all there is to it? Or maybe some people just don't dream vividly, lucid or not lucid..
I would appreciate your thoughts on this..
