Hello again DreamViews. I have heard people can sleep with their eyes open, but can people lucid dream with their eyes open? Sounds silly, but please, hear me out...

Usually when waking up I am tired enough to go straight back to sleep. If I do go back to sleep I almost always I have a lucid dream whether I like it or not. When I close my eyes I get this 'feeling', then if I open my eyes I am in the dream. In the mornings I try not to fall back to sleep because this will happen 95% of the time. Last week I woke up at around 3:30am and stayed up just because I was afraid of dreaming.

Anyway... this morning after I had woken up I went back to sleep and straight into a lucid dream, then woke myself up immediately. I closed my eyes again and got that 'feeling', I knew what it ment and shot my eyes open, what I saw was very strange...

At first the sight in front of me was normal, my bedroom. But about a second later it became less colourful, eventually into black and white. Then it changed back to colour, and it had lost clarity, to become what I recognise as a lucid dream.

The process was divided into 'frames':

-Eyes opened
1- Normal clarity and colour.
2- Less colour, normal clarity.
3- Black and white, less clarity.
4- More colour, less clarity.
5- Full colour, lost clarity.
-In lucid dream

6- Wake up
7- Never sleep again

Any ideas?
