Basically, the conscious part of the brain is just gearing itself to wake up while you're still dreaming. In this half-waking half-sleeping state, it's possible to suddenly become aware that you're dreaming. In my experience, the moment you do that everything suddenly snaps into crystal clarity and you can then control what you dream. It's like your own personal holodeck - you can go anywhere, do anything, meet anyone. Freddie meets Star Trek, if you like. But since you're only a whisker from waking up, it can be hard to sustain it.
The trick is to recognise the dream. There can be a lot of woo attached, like with a lot of things, but the basic idea is to build things into your daily routine that you can recognise when they fail or behave oddly; for instance light switches tend not to work in dreams.
It's probably something that sounds far fetched to someone who hasn't experienced one, but I can attest that it does work.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
