@Octavia,

All the on-screen evidence suggests that Twilight had no idea she was in a flashback during those scenes until she saw the Elements in their old form on the Orrey. She was crying because she thought Luna, her friend, had gone insane, because her surrogate mother-figure, Celestia, had been hurt and she didn't know whether or not she and Celestia were strong enough together to stop her.
