Almost There...

I think I’m getting much closer to a real Lucid Dream. I had a dream recently where I walked on water. I wasn’t sure if I was dreaming, but I did know that I could edit my environment. What happened was that I was dreaming that I had to cross a lake, so I tried to edit the dream so I could walk over the water. I had some trouble with it initially; I kept falling through. About halfway through, I was able to walk more easily. I was aware that it was out of the ordinary, but it never occurred to me that it was a dream. I was so close!

That’s called a false lucid dream. It does not count as a lucid dream until you realize that you are dreaming.

But at least I’m getting closer… right?

It depends. If you didn’t dream about having powers before you knew about lucid dreaming, then you possibly are.

Remember to do lots of reality checks, they’re a good beginner technique.

or a partially lucid dream, I have a lot of these. I’ll realize that I’m dreaming but am unable to change the environment and am not 100% aware of what has happened until after I wake up.
