Hello!

I'm very new on lucid dreaming, in fact i just started working on it, I've only had regular dreams but they have lately become stronger.

Anyway, I usually follow the tip to set the alarm clock 1 hour before you should go up, so the dream will have a chance to go lucid. However, when I do like this, this last dream (I usually have around 3 before the last one), is a lot more powerful than the others and usually gets me emotionally affected the whole day.

So, a dream I had, it was yesterday. It was very strong. There was a guy, a creature in my garage, he was very angry at me and he was holding me at gunpoint with a wand. It was like he was lecturing me, just like an epic hero-speech in a movie. First I understood what he was talking about cause it happened in real life. But then he said something that I couldn't quite figure. He said:

"It's like you're in a nine millimeter war"

I could hear this really clear in the dream, just like he was giving me some kind of message. I often get these kinds of messages, mostly words I have never heard before, never even thought about. However this was a sentence with existing words, but there times when what I hear in the dream is just nonsense, but they are speakable words. This is really weird I think.

Has anyone had similar experiences?

And one more thing:

Sometimes when I'm about to fall asleep, I sometimes see pictures in front of my eyes, and when this happens I'm still pretty much awake and can open my eyes if I want to. I usually see objects or a different environment, the thing I know is that this isn't my room. This is too very weird, because I could at any time open my eyes cause I'm awake
