Thread: Being Lucid, but not being Lucid in a Dream

..is this even a thing?

What I mean by this, is last night I had a dream where I didn't want to play the game of being scared and hiding so I just stopped and did my own thing (I even said this to myself in the dream). The dream was about hiding from dragons as they raided my town and we had to seek cover to not get attacked. I decided to just go outside, round up all the dragons and shoot them with lightning. Very vivid too, which was cool to see, giant black dragons falling from the sky from my lightning bolts.

The cool thing about this was, I knew it was a dream, but I didn't act like I knew it, if that makes any sense. I've had plenty of Lucid Dreams where I would do what I wanted and how I wanted, but this is a first for me where I just knew yet kind of just went along for the ride. I suppose I kind of did change the dream by not playing along with the hiding thing, but is this considered Lucid? Heh, the whole reason I came here to ask, is because I don't know how to classify this for my Dream Journal.


Cheers!
