Hello,

Most of the time I do not see myself in dreams, for my persecptive in them is the same as waking life. That is, I can see my arms, legs, etc, from my eyes only.

Today I had a lucid dream. I don't recall what changed it from regular to lucid, but I do know that the first thing I saw was the reflection of my face in wall mirror. It looked as if I had been beaten up because both the whites of my eyes were red from blood, I had black eyes, and my left big tooth was knocked out. In fact, I could feel the hole where the tooth went.

My appearance didn't bother me and so I got excited that I was in a lucid dream. I felt the dream ending, and so I imagined myself jumping through the floor above my head. And it worked! I went through the floor and saw the inside of it and then from above. It was really neat because I always wanted to do that after reading above others being able to.

So, the dream was fun, but I'd like to know why I might have had that beaten up appearance, and been able to see myself in a mirror. I haven't gotten in fights since grade 9, lol.

Thanks!
