Thread: lucid dream or something else?

The dream: I am in my kitchen and someone has brought coke in my house and it is scattered across the counter top. I start to get angry with the person who i cant clearly see or is in another room and my mom enters the room. I notice her immediately and still angry explain to her that it is not mine and I plan to do something about this. But then I realize this whole situation is ridiculous because why would there be coke spread out everywhere and that is when I become conscious that it is a dream. I tell my self (not in my dream but my actual mind) that this is a dream, I am lucid, I am clearly conscious and I have control etc. Then the setting turns to pure light. Then to a setting where I see my self from behind on top of a mountain which overlooks a beautiful landscape. I cannot see it however I just know, all I can see is me sitting meditating and beyond me is the sky and the sun's light. I am not whole how ever, I am see through yet my body is outlined in dim colors. I watch my self from this pov for a short period of time enjoying this experience and let what happens happen. What happens next I don't know but I am now just out side my bedroom aware of what just happened. From there I continue you on with my dream.

For me this is the second lucid experience I've had yet I dont think its a lucid dream, maybe astral projection? I know it felt completely different from my first LD yet I was aware of the dream all the same. The experience I had had to be no more than 10 seconds from what I can recall, next time I'll know to hold the state of mind versus let it drift away so easily.

I guess my question is what would you classify it as or what do you take from this, because I was conscious yet outside my body inside my own dream. Unless that was not me I was looking at yet just me thinking it was.

O yea and I don't really care about the dream it self just the part where I was conscious, maybe it has to do with me meditating for the first time in awhile the day before hand.
