Thread: Weird experience last night

OK not quite sure how to explain this one. This morning between the hours of 06:00 and 08:00 (no I'm not in the army lol) I must have had about 7 LD's all broken up by either false awakenings or actually awakenings. I think at first I had an LD and awoke from this at about 06:00 and I know this as was staying in a hotel and the clock on the TV said so, I checked twice to make sure I was actually awake and not dreaming it. So then I thought "damn why wake up?" So thought about the dream I had just had and managed to slip right back into it and again, carried on, then I had what I think were a couple of false awakenings, and each time I started thinking someone was having a joke with me by keep disturbing me from my LD. Anyway, it got to about the 4th time and when I managed to become lucid again. And I was walking along and knew what was coming, I knew any second I would have another awakening, and I would lose this dream! SO as it started to fade I started rubbing my hands together, that didn't work. Then I tried spinning, again no joy! Another False awakening!! By this point I was getting a little frustrated but managed one last Lucid, which wasn't very vivid, I remember for fun putting my finger through my hand, since when ever I had been lucid I had not managed to do this for some reason, felt weird, almost like what I would have expected that mirror in the matrix to have felt like had Neo put his finger through it lol. Then I through I would try flying and as I started to move up it got darker and darker, I knew I was going to wake again so gave up, and by this point just woke myself and got up.

What I don't understand though, is why I couldn't keep lucid, but the 4th time I knew what was going to happen, I knew I was going to wake up, and couldn't stay in the dreams for any decent amount of time. I did have another LD the night before so they are coming more regular now which is a good thing, its almost like I'm battling with myself to stay lucid if that makes sense?
