I remember when I had my first truly involved lucid dream. Really jarred me, I popped out of bed and immediately onto the computer to search on “dreaming when you know you’re dreaming”. But that was sorta in the pre-Google era, I think I even used AltaVista back then.

I was a bit unnerved at the time, twitching around at 6am. One of the articles I came across explaining lucid dreaming talked of the presence of the “demon dream” and had this totally scary picture of a demon. That page seems long gone, but I was like “oh no!” Little did I know how much “oh no” there was going to be. It’s fun when you think it’s part of your imagination, and then gets to be less fun when you start getting your bearings and feeling like you’re actually visiting alternate universes.

I offer up my journal if you are interested…and in terms of your summoning objects to your hand, I have a telekinesis tag for those dreams where I summon objects, or otherwise cause physical effects with my mind:

I’ve found what really helps in conjuring objects out of thin air is to start a feedback loop by squeezing my hand into a fist where I rub my fingers against my palm. As I do this, I try to remember the sensation of what it feels like to hold that object and mentally focus on it. Very strange how causing the tickling gets the process rolling…
