I've been trying vaguely for a few months to have a lucid dream - not putting to much effort into it, but counting my fingers etc. whenever I remember, and keeping a dream journal. Then, just the other night, I had to wake up at 12 to pick up my mom from the airport. I got home at about 1:30, and then went back to sleep. I hadn't thought about it at the time, but this is kind of like the wake then back to sleep method, right? So when I fell asleep I had a really weird dream, and I counted my fingers and had six, and then later four, and I managed to make out with Alan Rickman (Score! ) But then I didn't really feel a sense of consciousness. It felt more as thought I had a dream that I had a lucid dream, or like I was kind of hovering on the edge of one the whole time, slightly more conscious than usual, but not all the way. Was this a lucid dream?
