Hi peeps, Well for me, sometimes when i massage my eyes when they are closed i can sometimes see colors, geometric shapes and minor things like that- but today was VERY interesting… i was doing it for fun (plus i was extremely tired) and quickly a scene came and i was looking at the most detailed beach ever… it was amazing- but i still had full control over every sense IRL as i had only closed my eyes for about 10 seconds. I was staring at the beach for a good 8 seconds admiring its detail… Then it changed and was looking at a very detailed purse with a pattern of purple and green. then changed to first just a blurry dark blue circle with another purple circle in that. Then the colors changed… but this was very wierd cuz i have never seen something this detailed before by just massaging my eyes… and its probly not the start of a dream as i have like i said only had my eyes closed for 20 seconds…
A question: was you in the middle of a sleep cycle(WBTB) or just in the middle of your day? Or perhaps just about to lie down? Just curious.
Also, usually as I lie down I see colors convalesce and consume each other as I close my eyes. Dark pink and dark greenish-yellow colors.
the thing is it was like 11:30 but i was still a little tired and no i didnt lie down i was just sitting down…
My very first encounter with this HI/LD was kind of like this. I was about five or six years old, and upon going to bed, I would close my eyes and press on them with the bases of my palms, I liked the colors and patterns. But this one time, I started seeing rings of light coming towards me (like going through a tunnel) and suddenly found my self in orbit around Earth, there was something else going on, but I can’t remember. To this day, I’m not exactly sure what it was (seeing as I too, only had just closed my eyes).
So I wonder, if this is somehow related, and could be used as a LD induction technique.
