Am I getting close to lucidity?
I've been dream journaling every day for a few weeks now, and I usually remember two or three dreams per night (usually they happen in the morning). I've just starting doing reality checks/questioning reality more. And also, I've tried the MILD technique before going to bed two times now, and both times, I feel like I'm close to being lucid, but never get there. For example, the night before last, in my dream, I was looking for somebody. I walked into a library to look for them, and there was one bookshelf with only copies of "Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming" (by Stephen LaBerge). And then I turn around, and LaBerge himself is standing right there! I woke up after that. And then last night, I dreamed that I was lucid. I did a reality check, my left hand only had 4 fingers, and then I got this feeling of excitement, and I started floating upwards towards the sky. But, then I got scared and went back down. Then it just continued on into a "normal" dream. But, I wasn't actually lucid at all while this was happening, I was just dreaming of it happening, if that makes any sense. I figure I'm either close to being actually lucid, or my brain is just trolling me XD
