What isn't possible in a lucid dream?

What it actually feels like.... who knows... maybe your feelings and perceptions will be more authentic then you think =]...

I say this because...

one example:
Prominent psychiatrist, Stanislav Grof, in the 1950s investigated the clinical uses of LSD...
what was astounding is that while patients were under the influence of acid, some would describe how it felt to be in their mother's womb, with nuancesand accuracy about the experience that were far beyond their education level. One of his female patients took the persona of a female prehistoric reptile and later a zoologist confirmed that feelings and processes she described to the animal. Others could tap into racial and collective memories, providing accurate accounts of the embalming process in Ancient Egypt or undergoing initiation rights of Australian Aboriginals...


I do think it's possible to tap into things that you cannot dream of experiencing in real life while in the lucid dream state. I don't think linking into the collective subconscious (I am a big fan of Carl Jung) is contingent solely upon psychedelics.
