Thread: Lucid but don't fully embrace what that means?

Earlier this week I had another lucid dream. It was a wild. I was resting on my couch and my body locked up. Then I started feeling myself being swung around the room. I opened my eyes with a little difficulty. (Opening up my eyes in a lucid dream is a little bit of a struggle but nothing major). I could see the room I was flying around I recognized none of the furniture. I didn't even have to do any reality checks. I kind of just went into the dream knowing it wasn't real. So even though I knew it wasn't real I made no attempt to take control. While I was flying around the room I looked over to the closet. There was a ghostly looking woman standing inside the closet. Even though I was aware it wasn't real it still spooked me out. I shut my eyes again and just allowed myself to keep flying around the room until I woke up.

At first I didn't think that could really be called a lucid dream. But simply knowing it's not real makes it a lucid dream right. I found something on the different levels of lucid dreaming. It mentioned being lucid but not fully embracing what it means is level one or two or something like that.
