What's up with this? I hallucinate a ton before falling asleep. Yet nobody around me has this thing, some barely even dream. So many vivid images flash through my mind, random thoughts, and even scenes playing out in a semi-conscious state. Do they have any meaning or are they just collective garbage? Is hypnagogia a portal to something else and why do some people not experience it?
Creatives have been using it forever. The Founding Fathers all used it and it's mentioned explicitly in Jefferson and Franklin's memoirs. They described specific methods they'd use to enter hypnogogic trances as well.I started experimenting with it because I was spending a lot of time practicing hypnosis on people and discovered you could enter it easily during self-hypnosis. It also 'feels' or writes to short/long term memory in a similar way as other paranormal events I've experienced (like lost time,) which aligns with other historic and contemporary examples.It's really fascinating stuff. Interesting that such an easy and straightforward method exists that allows true creative and contemplative freedom. I know a lot of people think this is an expression of the God's Head, Akash, Overmind.
>>41675737how do you slip from hypnogogia into a trance, what's the difference? Or can you take it a step further to automatic writing/painting etc?Hypnogogia seems pretty easy so long as you're fairly sleep/exhausted. I'll close my eyes and then I'll start seeing, hearing, thinking things that are not mine, come from somewhere else. It's crazy that nobody I know IRL experiences it. I'm not even a creative person (though I do have imagination) so I dont know what's up with this
