I just woke up from a dream. I was in a hallway and I realized, in my dream, that things were going weird. So I took my left hand fingertips and put them to the palm of my right hand. The hand touched and did not go through. So I carried on in the dream thinking it must be real.

I had read online that a lucid dream test is seeing if one hand goes through the other. Why didn't the test work? It is worth noting that I thought the way the hands touched felt weird and I actually paused to think about it. Is there a better test I can do in the future?

This is the first time I did the testing in a dream.
