Eyes darting about unintentionally why trying to sleep?

Ok so every now and then, as I am in my own little world while tring to sleep, my eyes dart about the ‘darkness’ that I ‘sEe’. Now I don’t know what this is and I was wondering if it could aid me in trying to become lucid.

same exact thing happens to me. I would say beginning of REM but its too early for REM while falling asleep I think. Not sure if it could help you become lucid.

Yeah I didn’t think it was REM. However normally its just after i’ve been half asleep in my own world, where I am aware that I’m thinking it, yet not aware of the world around me.

according to my experinces
your in the beginning of the stage of LD

when its all black , let it be black , it wont be black for ever ,
sooner or later colors will change , let them till images start forming

once images start forming , hop in one of them to LD
