It's more like what one would experience by going into a totally darkened room and rapidly blinking their eyes, and seeing the organic flashes - but much more intense, bright, and clear, with vibrant color and the shock sensations.
or better yet,
anything like the stuff described in the later pages of this thread ?

@Nabil - regarding the frequency of lucid dreams, I tend to have more when I am taking better care of my diet and meditating. If you do things to remove stress and of course have the intent to know the self, it tends to be automatic.
A lot of my lucid dreams are 'alchemical' and symbolic in nature. For example, in such a dream, I would be walking by a large rock on which there would be crouched a black panther. I would face the panther, it would jump at me, but then instead of being knocked down I would absorb its body - or rather, it would become instantly integrated.
With the help of a trained shaman, I've since found that I can also use a more conscious approach of 'dreaming' called active imagination (they call it 'journeying') to explore the 'psyche'. Such a process can be an extremely powerful and effective way to heal oneself and others.
