I've heard quite a few people have these types of dreams. All of my dreams that are non-lucid are absolutely abstract and bizzare. I dare say I've had basically no dreams that make a little drop of sense when I can't excert any control. Some are just a bit strange... Others feel like a bunch of hallucinations you might get if you're on LSD.

My boyfriend calls it subconscious noise and I pretty much agree with that description of it.

Other dreams I have that are non-lucid yet still quite to my desires, I call them ego manifestations. It's like my subconscious is taking out all my wills and desires from my mind and creating a dream that suits me perfectly. However the difference between a lucid dream where I'm in control and a dream where I have an "ego manifest" experience is a bit like this:

Now if you have dream control you might point point at an object and think "I want this object to blow up".. However if you're in an ego manifest state it just does it for you, without you thinking it with as much of the conscious mind you can bring over into your dream.

And then there's the bizzare sensation of what it seems to be like when you are drifting outside of your body. I've felt this before, but personally I just think it's my mind playing around with me. I don't believe that I've ever actually wandered outside of my body.

Obviously then there are the controlled dreams and the lucid ones, but we know about those already, don't we now.

Do you guys have any other definitions or personal experiences you have other names for?
