There are a couple of ways you can know for sure if you are dreaming or not. These are reality checks and can be done throughout the day. If you end up doing it in a dream because of habit, you will trigger a lucid dream since now you are aware that you are dreaming. You can look at your hands. If you are awake of course you will see 5 fingers on each hand. However, in a dream you wont have normal hands. Usually there are extra or missing fingers, or your hands are just blurry and disformed. Here are some other reality checks you can do throughout your waking life.
-Looking at a clock, away from it, then back at it. In the real world, The time will be the same, or maybe the time changed by a minute. In the dream world, the time will always be scrambled and changing.
-Try to put your finger through the palm of your other hand. If it works, you are dreaming.
-Flip a light switch every now and then. If you do it in a dream, the lighting in the scene will not change and you will know you are dreaming.
