Thread: First Lucid Dream or.....?

So, last night I think I had my first lucid dream, it went something like this:

I was in the middle of some strange dream, I dont remeber very well, then I thought, why is there a huge mechanical robot shooting missiles. At this point I decided to do a reality check. I counted my fingers on , my right hand, normal. Then when I counted my left hand, I noticed I had a 6th finger. Realizing I was dreaming, I started spinning around, as I had heard that was an effective way to stay in the dream. Then, when I s topped spinning, I was in a warehouse. There were a couple of random peolple standing In the warehouse. kne man approached me, his name began with the letter 'm', unfortunately I cant remember what his name was, as it was quite strange. I asked him if I was lucid dreaming. He replied that I was. I then asked him if I could fly, he said I could. I jumped up and found that flying was hard, like a badly programmed flying video game. Before I continue I should mentionend that I never actually left the ware house. I seemed to be limited to that area. Next I asked if I could breathe underwater. Once againnhe said I could. The warehouse then flooded with water, up to the ceiling. I found I couldnt breathe, so I swam up to the top, but then remembered that the warehouse was completely full. I swam back downmto my 'guide' and said BREATHE. I then realized i could breathe. After that, the water left, and all the random people slowly started grabbing there things and leaving. I asked the man and said "where is everyone going?" He said that it was time to wake up. Then what felt like a few minutes later, I did wake up. It was only about 9:00 when I woke up, which was strange since I usually sleep in until 10:00.


So that left me wondering, did I have a lucid dream, or a dream about having a lucid dream. I remember the dream more vividly then most, plus I did feel in control during the dream. The only things that make me doubt myslef are the fact that there was a guide of sorts, I was limited to this warehouse, and, I only learned about Lucid dreaming half a month ago. I would your feedback, so I know if Im going Inn the right direction, or if I had Lucid-Dream-Ception.
