Thread: Hello! I'm new. Did I have my first lucid dream?

Hello, everyone I'm new to these boards.

I believe I might have had my first lucid-dream. Here's what happened:
It was yesterday night. I was online reading about lucid-dreaming; so I decided to give it a shot. Before I went to bed, I kept telling myself: I'm going to remember my dreams, and I shall I control them. Eventually, I ended up falling asleep around 3:30 AM. Although I did remember my dreams, I couldn't remind myself that I was sleeping. I woke up around 9:00 AM; I was still tired. So, I tried going back to sleep, but this time I tried to do some meditation. As I was meditating, I was slowly falling asleep. When I fell asleep, something strange happened.

I found myself in a table but I was the only one there. I decided to examine the room. While I was examining the room, I noticed four pictures. As I starred into the pictures, I decided, I wanted to imagine a something entirely new. That's when it happened. The entire scenery changed. It felt as if I were falling. But the feeling wasn't painful nor was it enjoyable. The feeling felt alien. Eventually, I found myself standing on lush green grass; I saw the most bluest sky that I have ever seen. However, everything was out of focused but I knew I was dreaming. I kept telling myself:I'm dreaming. This has to be a dream. Five minutes ago, I was starring at my bed. With this realization, I started to become excited and afraid. Eventually, I decided I wanted to wake up. And I did. I found myself starring at my pillow. The whole experience felt as if it only lasted for five minutes.

Can anyone confirm if this was my first lucid- dream? thanks

If you knew you were dreaming then you were lucid. :bravo:

Sounds like a lucid dream to me.
