a couple of nights ago I was dreaming for sure, whether it was a Ld or not it made me think. What is an actul Ld suppose to look like. Is it suppose to be as if it were completely realistic or is it still the radom colors or maby a scanner darkly kinda look. this would really help me to clarify if in a Ld or me just thinking I had one.
thank you

A Lucid Dream is simply knowing your dreaming. Lucid Dreaming means Conscious Dreaming, or Dream Consciousness. The term Lucid itself means Conscious. Vividness, Control, those types of things however come with Lucid Dreaming. But to be Lucid, is to know that you are dreaming, to be aware its a dream.
ya, i know that. I was just wondering if there had to be a certin amount of vividness, and if it could be explained in anyway. it just seems like i just think im dreaming rather then actully being in a dream.
Not all LDs are vivid no. The only classification for an LD is knowing if your dreaming or not. Vividness and Control don't factor into wether you've had an LD, they are just the icing on the cake that make it, just oh-so-sweet :content:
thank you, you cleared a lot for me.Quote:

It took me a while to convince him otherwise. But once he understood what a real lucid dream was it blew his mind. "You can actually do that?!?" was his reaction.
Couldnt you of simply said "Knowing your dreaming, During the dream?" Or did you and hes just too dense to get that? :P
