Thread: First try, first success?

Hey guys!

This is my first post, so I want to introduce myself.
I am from Austria (not Australia ) so sorry, if my English is not quite perfect.
I found this Forum two days ago and i read a lot of Tutorials and Experiances, and the Topic Lucid Dreaming was so interesing, I tried it for myself the same night.
I want to share my experiances with you and I hope you can tell my, if I really had my first lucid dream.

So I have heard a long time ago about lucid dreaming, but I thought this is only possible if you are a special person or something, so I didn't inform me about it.
But last Sunday I came to this Community and I saw, that it is possibly to learn for everybody!

So i layed down at night with pleasant anticipation and told myself "I will have a lucid dream" and "I will remember my dreams".
It took quite a time till I fell asleep but then i had my first dream.
This one wasn't lucid, beacause I didn't do a reality check, but I can remeber quite a lot from this dream (but I don't think it is important here to mention).

After that dream I woke up and noticed some facts about the dream. I had a hard time to fall asleep again, but then it happened:

I was standing in my room and thought "this must be a dream".
I tried to jump, but the gravity took me down on the ground. Again. And again.
The third time I started to levitate and I knew, that this was a kind of RC.
I tried the Superman-pose and started to fly
I was very excited, so I started to look at my hands (I heard this is a method to stabilise dreams, but I can't remeber what my hands where looking), but I lost control about my flying and crashed on my carpet. It didn't hurt.
I tried it again and I was flying through my ceiling and further through a dark emptiness.
I came out in a land, which "reminded" me of Narnia, but it is strange, because I have never seen the movie Narnia nor read the book.
There was a house which has projections on it and changed it's appearance from a large house to thousand miniature-houses and so on.
I described it as "The all-seeing eye in form of a house", don't ask me why
At last part of the dream I was standing in my room and my girlfriend was lying in my bed (the night I dreamed, I was lying alone in my bed) and told me to "come to bed".
There were a cat on my side of the bed which looked liked the cat of a friend.

Then I woke up and wrote down some notes.
I can't remember any furhter dream in this night, but I was sleeping not so good.
I don't know if i slept or just layed there..

Do you think it is possible that this was a lucid dream, and that in the night after I heared something about it?
I wanted to try it again this night, but my girlfriend was over and there weren't the right equirements.

I didn't know if this belongs to exp. or the newbie section, so if it's wrong, please move it!
And sorry for the long first post!
