Lucid Dreams: A Note On False Awakenings

There's a lot to be said about false awakenings, which are most commonly associated with the pre-lucid state; as I'm jotting these notes on lucidity as they occur to me for now I just want to mention this...

When a lucid dream ends in waking up, you should do a lucidity check. It often happens (to me in any case) that a lucid dream ends with a false awakening and a new one can be begun if this is identified.

Which perhaps should lead to thinking about "lucid consciousness" in terms of a bell curve for the purposes of applying the rating scale previously discussed, or maybe some sort of twisted bell curve with respect to the previous post.
