The weird patterns are called hypnagogic images. You can also hear sounds occasionally (hypnagogic sounds) as you are drifting off. Usually I feel vibrations before SP but that's just me.

You might be closer than you even need to be. During the Wild process one can transition to a dream state anytime during it. Even if you havent seen imagery or heard noises. Heres a good wild guide for transitioning. Instead of focusing on SP you should focus on the dreamworld. Seeing as you are already good at inducing SP you should have no problem getting lucid http://www.dreamviews.com/f79/mancon...hnique-128996/

You were there! Stick with it. Even if you get startled, don't give up. It is just a sign that you are on the right track. Keep it up, and it should happen again. Sometimes it takes a few rounds of strangeness for the dream to kick in.
