    Aftee 6 months, THIS CLOSE to a lucid dream....but still not successful!

    Hey everyone, I'm new to the site so please bear with me.

    I had this dream last night(11/27) and I was prompted to join this evening after giving it much thought.

    Long story short, ever since discovering the art and technique of lucid dreaming, I have studied it thoroughly. That was 6 months ago when I started, and I continuously studied and practiced it. Here I am 6 months later with no success, after trying just about everything there is, with the exception of not purchasing any LD devices.

    Last night, however, I believe I came very close to an LD.

    I believe I was in a crowded park full of people, and I saw someone who I care about a lot. This person I've never met before, but I do know in real life and care about them more than anything. I saw this person and ran up to them and began hugging them, getting choked up.

    In the dream, I actually felt the sensation of hugging him! It was such a strong sensation, that I could actually almost feel and recall it this morning.

    Other things that no one else would really care to hear, are not important so I won't mention them(lol).

    However, I do remember thinking in the dream how that person did not look like how they were supposed to look. Actually, thinking about it now, I don't even think they looked close at all how they were supposed to.

    The sensation of feeling them and their hug is a symptom of lucid dreams, correct? And me almost realizing that was not the right person should have triggered it, right?

    I also felt the emotions I'm sure I would have felt if I did meet them in real life.

    HELP, am I getting close to an LD, after all this time? And what else can I do to have one soon?

    Thank you everyone<3

      Well, yes. Both of these are symptoms, or things that could induce lucidity. You see someone you know, but they look "off" like maybe their hair is wrong or they're older/younger than they should be. Pay attention when your around people, and reality check if they seem different than they should. Also pay attention to their behavior. This can be another indicator that you're dreaming.
      As for the hugging sensation. I can relate to that as being a lucid trigger. I became lucid a handful of times because I felt the shock in my leg when I stepped or stomped on the ground.
