One of the best indicators that you are in a dream is if you can't read something that you are trying to read. For whatever reason, reading is impossible while dreaming and most people don't even have writing in their dreams to read. I do have writing in my dreams, but only rarely and am not able to read it. I've definitely used it to trigger lucid dreaming. I also use stuff like, "wait, how am I breathing under water?"
My most consistent dream sign is that I cannot run. I don't just get exhausted, I lose coodrination, but can for some reason continue running on my fours like a dog. Maybe it's just being a furry?
Another one is losing my backpack or purse, getting anxiety about how I screwed up and thinking it must not be real.
