Hypnogognic Sound?

**Remus** · 04-11-2005 03:38 AM

Sometimes, when I start to go to sleep, I can almost hear sounds that sound like people's voices that I know at school (mostly) just with random words. o_o Is that Hypnogognic Sound? It rarely happens, and oddly, it isn't normally people I ever talk to, like some of my friends. xD It's normally people's voices that I know WHO they are, but I never really speak to them. o_o

Yeah I get that all the time. I don't seem to get any hypnogagic imagery at all, just sound and it's really weird. Freaky even, when you start to realise what is happening... just some random voice having a random conversation, not a conversation that you heard during the day, but a completley made up one.... Well yeah it's a little scary.

My lack of hypnogagic imagery is what makes it harder for me to wild, as I don't really have anything to 'draw me in' so to speak. Oh well, you're not alone... I wonder what determines whether someone gets imagery or sound?? Does anyone get both? I've always been a very musical person, so I guess that's why I get sound and not imagery.

Whenever I WILD the hypnogogic sounds are always crazy, i dont get images really until I've gone through sleep paralysis and am like 2secs away from dreaming, but the sounds start before I go into sleep paralysis, and I love them.. They are a great sign that i'm really close and that I should stay relaxed and just chill and listen and wait. I often hear sounds similar to a plane revving its engines while it takes off down the runway, or the sound of static on a tv that just lost its cable, you know the sound, and sometimes I hear conversations. But I only get this in the morning after i've woken up and go back to sleep, never when I first go to sleep at night, you get them when you first go to sleep Remus??

i had a really powerful one last night, a piece of music, but it sounded like it was live in my room.
totally mind blowing...i got lost in it.
can you use hypnagogia to induce lucidity?

**Barbizzle** · 04-11-2005 10:40 PM

I used to hear ovices and music soo loud in my head. After years of really focusing i got rid of them... Should I try to bring them back, woudl it help wiht lucid dreaming?? HOw would i even bring them back if i wanted to?

**Citrusponge** · 04-12-2005 04:51 PM

That exact same thing happens to me. Well it doesn't happen as often as it used to.

I haven't posted on this website in a while, and this morning I had a very crazy lucid after posting last night, i'm very drunk, so sorry for any spelling errors.... Yes you can use hypnogogic sounds to induce lucids, today I just went straight into dreaming lucid after my mom woke me up to take my dog out, it was wild, when I became lucid, i just fell straight out of my bed, but knew I was dreaming and floated around everywhere, and did some crazy shit... You can always use HP sounds to become lucid, just remember when you start to hear them that you are about to go into the dream world, and prepare your mind and shit that you'll be dreaming soon and you''ll remember it, it just takes some time and practice.. I love it, before a couple months ago, I could only lucid when I tried to WILD on purpose, but now I can lucid in the mornings using MILD or just by being aware of my dreams, just be patient and it'll come to you.. Gotta stay postive!!!!!!!!!! If you stay positive, and tell yourself you will lucid dream, you will, its all in your head!! too drunk to type more, peace out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

okay, i'm definitely going to try that one, i nearly had one this morning, when i woke up (in a dream) and looked at the clock, and it said 0930 in the morning, and i panicked, cos that meant i was late for work. except the clock i was looking at in the dream, wasn't like my one i have here, so that should have been a clue...

**WaveShaper** · 04-19-2005 09:31 PM

when I try WILD I always hear a song in my head when I begin to start thinking of images and thoughts. The song always changes and once I notice it in my head, I cant seem to make it go away! No matter how hard I try, it just stays hehe.

recently, I always hear a song when I goto bed and close my eyes. I guess I could just concentrate on the song as I WILD. hmmmm

**Barbizzle** · 04-19-2005 09:38 PM

Last night i managed to get the music back. I only had a pre-llucid dream though. I knew something was sooo wrong but i didnt discover that it was a dream.

**Elephantman** · 04-21-2005 08:10 AM

Weird... I always get the voices when I'm just falling asleep for the first time.
Have previously had HI and used that to enter a dream, I miss those days

Yeah HVoices/sound is probably a way common thing I think.

Dude that is trippy! i only hear hypnogognic sounds...well when i did that WILD...that one time. .... anyhow, u guys ever like heard music playing when u go 2 bed & start falling asleep?...happens 2 me all the time!!

**queensofthestoneage** · 04-22-2005 11:15 AM

ive never heard any sounds going to sleep...but.
ive woken up /and heard after waking up like.. banging and bangs and things like that.. what is that? sometimes it just scares the heck out of me...

**Jimminy** · 04-22-2005 12:19 PM

Yeah I use to get it a little bit.........haven't had it for a while.

l3xicon · 04-22-2005 01:07 PM

Huh, i'v never experienced hearing noises like that when i awake, was it like after dreaming, after a nightmere, or just completely random?
...that's really strange, but now i'm interested....

**queensofthestoneage** · 04-22-2005 03:35 PM

well seeing my dream recall is a big round zero i dunno... i just wake up and BANG and im all woozy from sleep and im like what is that? sometimes it scares me sometimes i just let it go like its normal...

**MonkeyElk** · 04-27-2005 08:39 AM

I'm sure its just hypnogogic sounds, youre just waking up from dreaming probably, and the sounds you hear are sounds from the dreamworld but you are semi-awake, so it freaks you out, its actually quite common, but upon wakening and hearing these sounds, you should try and go back to sleep while listening to the sounds and thinking to yourself that you will be dreaming soon, and it will be a easier way to obtain a WILD..

When you wake up and hear these sounds, can you move your body? How long do the sounds last??? You might be in a state of sleep paralysis, which is when you wake up, but your mind is still in dream mode kinda, so you can see the "real world" but also hear and feel like your dreaming...its pretty crazy, and lots of people are freaked out by it...Just remember to chill, everything is cool, and try to use it to your advantage when it happens.
