I find myself aware that I am in a dream as I am standing in a dark hallway with rows of doors are lined up on either side. It is the dead of night, and I get the impression that I am in a house. My hands come out in front of me, and I know I need to stabilize as things feel a bit unstable. I keep getting the impression that I am beginning to feel my physical body and then I am going to wake. I find myself in a FA for a period of time in which I am trying to re-enter the last dream lucidly (I did not realize it was a FA until several minutes upon waking for the day). My arm is around S as I begin on focusing and incubating a dream scene and entering lucidly. I close my eyes and notice hypnagogic imagery develop into the dream scene. I am looking consciously aware as I begin entering into a scene with a tall red Japanese shrine. The shrine is situated on a small island floating high in the sky with grass scattered across the ground on the bottom of the floating mini island. Behind the floating shrine sits a massive brown cliff with jagged edges. The cliff rises to the left, far above the shrine. My awareness begins merging with a dream body that I imagine, and I continue to recreate the feeling of the body moving through the entryway to the scene with waving motions of my limbs. I begin this transition into the sky and suddenly wake.

Has this happened to you?
Write it down while you still remember the details. We will look for the others.
If this reminds you of something a friend or a relative told you once and never mentioned again, send them this page. Reading that a stranger described the same thing is usually the part that helps.
