For me the feeling of being within a dream is a key part of how and why I get lucid. If I had to try and describe it, it's almost like a 6th sense in every sense I have. Everything is heightened - my vision is clearer, touch is more sensitive, hearing more defined, smell and taste more delicious and appealing!

For me there is also the strange sense of awareness of everything that is going on around you without having to interact with it. If someone's going to open the door I can feel the door being opened, if someone's coming up behind me I can sense that they're there, etc. To me the feeling of being lucid is all about the heightened awareness!
