Hey all. I haven't been here for probably close to a year, but I just had my second lucid dream.
Well, couple of moments of lucidity.

About a year ago, I became interested in lucid dreaming, found this site, and tried lots of techniques for awhile. I finally gave up because my schoolwork was much too demanding to be sacrificing that much sleep in attempting to WILD, etc.

So just last friday, a club I'm in did dreams as its topic of discussion for the day. I meant to bring up lucid dreaming, but we ran out of time. I guess it stayed in the back of my mind, though, because that night I became lucid. It was instant-- I was standing next to a tractor and then, "Wait, am I...? Yes! I'm dreaming!"

I'm having quite a lot of trouble recalling what exactly happened, because I have not been in the habit of remembering my dreams at all, and mostly I don't. One thing I do remember is that I witnessed a change in light levels. It was not my doing, but it definitely happened. One moment it was brightly lit and the next it was almost completely dark, lit only by a candle- or lantern-type thing.

Now, I was under the impression that it was not possible to change light levels. But does that not apply since it was not something that I willed myself? I remember being very surprised that it happened.

Hmm...
