So in one of my recent dreams I realized one of my dream signs, running, and performed a reality check. I jumped up into the air with the intention to fly, I didn't fly but I knew Gravity was off so I wasn't scared as I fell toward the ground. When I neared the floor the dream setting effectively disappeared and I was in a weird in between stage.

Next I felt as if I was being sucked up into a strong vortex or tornado. I had little concept of a body at this point. It was like the vortex pulled me into a new dream setting. Soon after reaching this setting I experienced a false wake up and went through the rest of the night blind.

Has anyone else experienced something similar? Is anyone else noticing the brain's seemingly negative view toward lucidity? As if the brain doesn't 'want' us to be lucid?
