Thread: First Lucid Dreams!

I've had my first lucid dreams this week, I would say they were only semi lucid dreams thoe. On Sunday morning I had my very first one, I dreamt I was walking along side a road with traffic and it suddenly occured to me i'm dreaming, I read a technique that if you rub your hands you prolong your lucidity. I looked at my hands they looked weird and grey, kind of like Danny Devito's Penguin man's hands.

Anyway as I felt myself begginning to wake up I rubbed my hands, not only did this prolong my lucidty but it made me 10 time more aware of my surroundings, I could'nt believe how real the dream felt at this point. I decided experiment and punched huge dents into a passing car! then I started dancing in the middle of the road, by then I got distracted and lost lucidity.

In my second dream I was in a strange house with lots of people in, I was stood in front of a room and this girl walked past me and gave me a dirty look. This is when I realised I was dreaming and I looked up a nearby flight of stairs and willed another girl to walk down the stairs, it did'nt happen strangely enough, maybe I have more to learn on dream control, I then got distracted and lost lucidity.

In my third lucid dream which happened this morning, I encountered my deceased mother and strangely enough me and my brother were talking about our mother the previous day. Anyway I walked into my dining room and seen my mother, this is when I told myself I had to be dreaming as she is dead. I rubbed my hands straight away and it became so real it was scary, I looked at my mother and she smiled at me and I hugged her. But then she started giving me an evil sort of grin and I kind of got freaked by this and then I found myself looking up at her like as if I were a little child again, this freaked me out even more so I woke myself up.

And that is it so far, I would say they were semi lucid dreams as they did not last long and I never think to experiment, like flying around or finding things out about myself.
