I have had about 6 Lucid dreams but in all of them I believed that the DCs were actual people that were dreaming as well. I also became Lucid without dream signs or RC's. I was like I could be dreaming and then I just kinda did my thing. The only I cant figure out here is was I simply dreaming of the idea of being lucid or was I lucid. The dreams are almost always a little fuzzy when It comes to remembering also
So, in your dream, you were thinking about whether it was a dream or not. Which conclusion did you come to? If you came to the conclusion that it was a dream, it would be a lucid dream. If you didn't, it would be a non-lucid dream.
Although lucid dreams tend to be easier to remember, this doesn't define them. What only does is that during them you know it's a dream.
See the reason I thought it'd be a dream about lucid dreams is because I was like, it'd be cool if this was a dream. Then I thought I'm dreaming but I did no RC's or see dream signs. I did believe I was dreaming though
In most of my lucid dreams, I think the DCs representing people I know are real people sleeping in the same dream with me. Not sure why...I think it is so real you assume you are in a real place so if you are there and real the others must be too. Otherwise I am fairly rational in my actions, although definitely uninhibited and feeling maybe a little drunk. I would suggest intentionally engaging your senses..touch and feel, listen, etc. That makes you more aware and lucid.
It doesn't mean that you weren't lucid, it just means that you weren't as aware as you could have been, unless you believe in shared dreaming, then you could believe that it is real people. ;) DCs generally tend to believe that they exist in both states, and sometimes make very convincing arguments.
