Wierd dream state

Once i was in the car, (passenger) it was lightly raining outside, and i started to fall asleep. But i was in some sort of half dreaming, half awake state where i could controll the dream. It was really peacful and calm, and gave me a sence of inner peace. Especialy with the rythmatic beating of rain against the window. I have been trying to re-create this for years, but i havnt been able too. It was wonderful. Has this happened to you?

    yes you was half awake, half asleep, allowing the dream to come into your reality. you may have had hallucinations of dream objects and of things that wasn't really there. it could have been lucid dreaming , even you perhaps traveling to the other side where the dead are.

    Yes sometimes this happens to me. I think this is different than lucid dreaming.
    I have been trying to do lucid dreaming, and it is different feeling from the being half awake and able to control the dream. The half awake accidental thing feels more like thinking.
    Lucid dreaming feels different and is almost always on purpose.

    As joeaverage said, it's lucid dreaming. It happens to me sometimes, but only during nightmares.

  • It's called lucid dreaming, it happened to me a couple of times too. I couldn't control the dreams though.
