Thread: My First Lucid Dream!

Blue = Lucid Dream

I was walking down a fairly steep grassy hill and I remember it being a beautiful day. I have a feeling there were boulders rolling down the hill as well, like from a Mario game, but I’m not certain. Suddenly I thought of doing a Reality Check so I tried pushing my fingers through my hand, it actually didn’t work. However, one of my fingers turned transparent even though I couldn’t actually push it through my hand. I realized that I must be dreaming, and I was really quite excited. I tried to suppress that feeling though because I knew I might wake up. The first thing that I thought about was whether I would be able to solve problems will in a dream, so for some reason I made paper with maths problems appear. Just as I was about to attempt them, everything became blurry. I was about to try to spin because I’d heard that can help, but it was too late and the dream ended.

I’m thinking any video game theme seems to be a more reliable dream sign for me (I've had a few similiar things before), but it’s still not a guarantee. I’m glad my reality checking is starting to work though. I’m really happy I managed to have a lucid dream, even if it was a boring and very short one. I now know that I can lucid dream, and I think that’ll give me the motivation to continue. The maths problems are funny though, I hate maths, which leads to believe I may not have been in full control of the dream.

If you have any suggestions to improve my lucid dreaming, that'd be appreciated!
