Seeing colors when eyes are closed

[Joebenz]

Hi,
I wanted to ask anyone of you, when you go to sleep at night and the more you get close to the sleep state, do you see shapes and colors moving in the darkness of your eyelids? Like if your eyelids were some sort of screen.
I think it is common but what i would like to know is that if those colors are related to our aura colors?
i usually see very vivid purple and green lemon colors.

If you see the same with eyes open, when you sink you brain frequency, then this should be the aura. If you press your eyeballs and seeing weird colors and so on this something different.

Aura seeing is complicated business, there are 4 or more stages in seeing auras. The first is just seeing the "cover" it seems silver/white or so. Then you start seeing the ("pale") colors, as you develop the ability you get more and more into the depth of the aura, which can include weird stuff.

The aura is changing with every thought.

I start to hallucinate, when i lay down, i see the room full of white waves, glittering, flashes and so on.
And most of the time i see my brow chakra, like a little flame pushing form inside to outside in a regular pattern. If i manage to focus enough i see the aura.

I don't press on them. it's only when i'm kinda relaxed. if i walk or do something and close them right away, i won't see them. but yeah they are always the same colors. not yellow, blue or red. Only purple and green and some rare times pink.
how do you sinc your brain frequency?

must be awsome to have those hallucinations

[Summerbreeze]

You might experiment with it, when you see the aura, just hold specific thoughts.

Thinking about a situation like the first time you were in love, or when you got trough the exams and celebrated, or something sexual

There are different stages how you look in the aura, this might explain someone who knows this stuff.

It is easy to work with different brain frequency, when you get to bed you brain is conditioned to lower it, there you might have great opportunities for psychic stuff. The slower your frequency the smoother and stable your thoughts get. You get a feel for it. You can do it with trance inducing techniques too. I will write an tutorial about lucid dreaming and astral projection soon, i will share more of this.

Different frequencies

What i can recommend if you are learning, you might play theta waves(on youtube f.e.). The brains of children are mostly in this state and we know they learn pretty fast. They don't think about thinking they just rely on their "inner source", I do this since listenting this more than before, working with the head works more smoothly.

Hemisync/binaural beats syncronices both halfs of the brain, might listen to it sometimes, your brain will get better at making connection and using both halfs. I can recommend that too.

It is no effort, while dish washing or so to listen to frequencies.
You can use it for meditation or for easier astral projection, there are many uses i yet don't know. It is not too easy to see the improvements since we mostly just see when things run as they shouldn't.

I see the same thing when my eyes relax for a while! Although mine are more of a dark royal blue and solid green that are in alternating circle-bands that shrink toward the middle of my vision. Like a lumpy bulls-eye target, with each band condensing inward.

I find it interesting to watch, but find it odd that I can't seem to make it change direction or shape.

[Joebenz]

that's exactly what i am seeing too. One day when i was watching them, they formed a face in half a second but it was very detailed. It was a girl of my age with her hair tied. But the colors were the same as always: green and purple. This only happened once.

Summerbreeze, so this is like meditating? i meditate often and also use binaural beats the only problem is that when i meditate, i often have these "blackouts" like if lost conscious. Maybe i was too relaxed

Hello, there I've also had this experience, but rare, like 4 to 5 times only. And it is a very beautiful thing. When I close my eyes I see a white ball of light, or sometimes blue. It's amazing. Once I've watched a video where they say it's something like the other side. Which I do believe it.

[apophis]

i have seen these purple colored spheres leaving my third eye for years
never thought anything by it, just something i enjoyed watching or controlling in to different fly paths or strength of sphere

the stronger or more charged the sphere was the longer it would live

i feel them being born and fly in to the darkness and die and be reborn again
it is always the same ritme or every sphere has the same lifetime

but lately things have changed

i now see something else, they are no longer spheres but colored spots, like paint on top of water

maybe its like what someone else mentioned that i see a tiny spot of my aura

in the center blue and white around with a different lifetime, it just hovers in-front of me and after a moment it fly's away and starts over

most of the time i will fall asleep, but sometimes i start to see places or all kind of imagery of things and places i never seen before
i will start switching between seeing these colors or seeing these imagery

i think it got to do with if i focus or start controlling and thinking about what i am seeing that i loose it and switch back to seeing colors
and i also think the same goes for the spheres to fly away, i am starting to think it got to do what i am focusing on.

the more i let go and stop acting the more i start to see and experience.
this is something new for me, i have to play more with this.

[HiImJeremy]

it sounds a bit like hypnogogic imagery to me.

[apophis]

interesting never heard about that...reading about it now


thank you

[maraislanuit]

I've always seen colors on my eyelids - ever since I was a small child - and so I just assumed it was a completely normal thing. Do other people not see colors?

[Summerbreeze]

They are perfectly "normal", there are different stages of this "hypnagogic imagery".

Science says they come, when using much mental resources over the day or being tired.
What it is I don't know, seems something straight physical with your "chemicals" in the eyes.

I usually have to wait for maybe 15 minutes after I start meditation until I see colors. When I do see colors, it is a deep purple cloud of energy that sometimes resolves into images. I also tried the same thing while having reiki energy work done and I saw purple with blooms of gold.

[Weirdness]

It occurs most often when I am about to fall asleep or just before fully wakening. I see thousands of small totally misc. images usually in black and white constantly and rapidly changing, trees, sinks, cups, windmills, you name it. In the sequence, sometimes I will see bursts of bright light turning off and on in different places in my visual field. (not like when you press on your eyes) Usually during these episodes, photographic moving images will pop up like a car, or a face in full color like I am looking at a photograph or a video. I have told a few people about this and they think I am nuts. This has only been happening for about 5 years. I enjoy being in this state and I will work to prolong or intensify the images. I have thought that maybe I am receiving some kind of messages, but I am unable organize any of them into a vision that makes sense. I am not on any medications other than Prozac 40 mg a day.

When doing Reiki on clients i often see colours and ,when asking for feedback,clients tell me that they have seen exactly the same colours.I also see a purple swirling vortex when meditating, which i think is my brow chakra and not hypnogogic imagery.However i do get colours and shapes before sleep, sometimes, and i believe this to be hypnogogic imagery.

Be extremely careful with events that happen when you are falling asleep or waking up. It is called hypnagogic hallucinations. There are many websites on the net that will explain this to you. I hope this helps

Hi, recently i have just gotten involved in this subject. (as of 30 minuets ago) but the blue and green or purple and green things you have been seeing. I have also seen them. and i almost always see them when im relaxed. I have been veiwing different posts and differnet topics but i learned new things about them.

the blurs became sharper and more complex it took a lot of concentration but you have to do three things

1. Imagine a chair infront of you, and imagine a person you know well. imagine them there, blank expression on their face. in your mind walk around them a few times and then settle behind them.

2. now build a bridge connecting your thoughts. not a wooden bridge or something like that, but an astral bridge. like a worm hole. you need to be relaxed and you need to have full concentration. make sure the bridge is strong and intact.

3. Keep a strong pattern of steady semi deep breathing. and keep your mind focused on the picture in your head and the bridge. Transmit your thoughts comments, what you want and need to say. you will feel a strong amount of brain power in the front of your fore head where your side of the bridge is. and play scenerios in your head. youll see the blue and green move around faster and sharper like shooting stars along those lines. you will also notice bright lights flash. and when your done. close the bridge and lock it into their mind. open your eyes and you will feel different.
