“Like most species, we have come to expect that we shall wake up more or less where we fell asleep. We associate the night with being static, becalmed. We might toss and turn a bit, and some may even sleepwalk. But as a rule it is the one period in each 24-hour shift when our frenzied movements hither and yon come to a halt. Hence there is something indefinably sneaky about popping up somewhere in the morning at a location that bears little relation to the one we were inhabiting the night before. It is perhaps the nearest most of us come to performing a magic trick.”

“If you think you’re in a lucid dream, focus on your hands. For some reason, hands look strange in dreams. Count the fingers—there may be too many, or too few, or the number of fingers may change. Lucid dreamers report counting and recounting the number of fingers and getting different numbers each time, or fingers appearing rubbery as though they had no bones, or that they had fingers growing out of fingers. This strange phenomenon has been reported by lucid dreamers around the world and across cultures... Lucid dreaming experts suggest you can push on a solid object to see if your hand goes through it, or check your reflection in a mirror to see if it looks normal. Another clue can be found in watches or clocks. They, too, seem to be off in dreams. Digital watches and clocks may have no numbers, or the numbers may be hard to read, or they may morph in strange ways.”
