A wierd thing happened with my dream last night and I was wondering if anyone thinks that a lucid dream could turn into an OBE? Hard to say, but since I didn't have that much control over it, but I was aware, it's probably a more intense lucid dream. Here's mainly what happened. I had a lucid dream that I was sitting next to my husband on the couch and as I looked over I saw that he was fast asleep. I realized that I was dreaming so I stood right up and told myself, "I'm having a lucid dream." I then decided to see if I could fly. As I raised my arms I was floating around my living room and then my whole house. I then went over to our sliding glass door to see if I imagined this, and managed to open the door. My dog greeted me, but I was unable to step outside. I told my dog to go lay down and floated around some more. I then walked up to a window of my house and was able to put my arm through the window leading to the outside. For some reason though, I could not figure out how to get my body through the entire house.
The next thing I knew, it's like I just opened my eyes and I was laying on my bed, but I felt too tired to move, like I couldn't get up, and then I really couldn't figure out whether I was dreaming or awake in real life. As I layed there, I suddenly heard voices coming from my living room. I could have sworn somebody said my name, and then there was giggling. Hmm.. Okay, this kind of startled me a little bit, and I was afraid to get up and go check. I was just laying there like I was afraid to move, and I kept telling myself, "Go back to sleep." I believe after that I went back to sleep until the morning, but that's all that happened. So, in anyone's personal experience, do you think this was a vivid lucid dream, or OBE or a combination of both? I think because I was startled I snapped myself out of it! Well maybe if I psyche myself up enough I will conquer my fears....
