No control, full lucidity.

I had a dream last night that was fully lucid, I walked into the bedroom of my old appartment, saw a mirror (it looked normal) and for some reason knew I was dreaming. It wasn't even a "am I dreaming" thing...

So I try to exhibit control, of any kind. Flying was kindof out of the question unless I wanted to phase through the roof like I have in the past...

Anyway, I knew for sure I was dreaming but had no control. Pooey!
although now that I think about it i'm not sure what I was trying to do...
I pointed at the mirror and tried to shoot electricity at it...and then I think I tried TK on some objects in the room. Oh well. F YOU SCHEMA!!!

I've had moments like those. I'm starting to think that I have less control whenever the dream is in my bedroom because it's just too realistic and I start doubting myself!

=( Well it was in my old bedroom from like 5 years ago. hehe.

I don't have a huge amount of control while lucid right now, as far as influencing my environment or changing scenery, but I find that I am really enjoying just sitting back and lucidly experiencing an ever changing dreamscape. Its almost like watching a movie, except in the first person.

I still want to master dream control, but for now I'm good with seeing where my mind will take me...

maybe because you "tried" instead of just doing it. you gotta have full confidence but sometimes its just impossible because you cant control your own mind sometimes. the slightest doubt in your mind can cause you to lose control.
