This sites maybe help you, I had dreams like that few times.
During night you have many dreams, and they are relatively short, at the time i had dreams like that i woke up soon after realizing that im dreaming.
Greetings
I know it was lucid dreaming my question was what did I do or not do that I couldn't take control of the dream . this was one of my first successful attempts at lucid dreaming.
But that being said I did it again last night and was viewing my dream from a third person perspective and still no luck of taking control of the dream environment but that makes twicce I've been able to succeed at realizing I was dreaming
I'm not really into this whole dream thing
But I have suffered very intense vivid dreams for years
I take sleeping pills prescribed monthly and they add to it
I have had many things happen,before I got into magick I use to play with my dreams..I took control by reminding myself in the dream that it is a dream,most time I would wake up but sometimes the dream would continue and then I would flip it into my liking
Try to set up a mental marker for your subconscious self to quickly realize it's dreaming.In a dream something is always off,look for it find it then go from there.
In my experience, when I've been an observer in my dream, I can rarely take direct control. I may have some influence -- maybe.
My most lucid dreams have been first person.
I will also have very immersive dreams, and sometimes even realize they are dreams, in which I can sense everything as if I were there either realistically or in some exaggerated fashion. Sometimes I realize it is a dream, and still even in first person, I a merely an observer along for the ride.
If I try too hard to take control in a dream, it can wake me up.
I know it's not much help. I'm not an active lucid dreamer; I have some lucid dreams, but it is not something I try to do.
My boyfriend can lucid dream of all his surroundings and everything, but it is a very rare and hard to master skill. He was born with it, but you have to take it at small steps at a time... You have to master 1st person lucid dreaming before you can truly control the surroundings. I lucid dream in 1st person as well, I have that trait, and I'm slowly trying to work on controlling my environment. Don't be discouraged. It takes time and effort. First try 1st person lucid dreaming bridge forcing yourself to the next stage okay? I hope this helped
