Hello again,

I have further questions about what exactly 'lucid dreaming' is...

If I close my eyes and begin to see images in my minds eye while completely relaxed yet completely awake, is this a lucid dream?

Or is it that one has to be asleep and yet conscious of the dream? It seems to me that one of the definitions of being alsleep, is that one is unconscious. Therefor it seems odd that people can be conscious that they are dreaming! unless they are not actually asleep, they are 'daydreaming' or visualising in the minds eye but not actually asleep?

Could anybody provide any further insight on this? It would be much apreciated.
