Thread: Hypnagogic Umbrella

It sounds very Mary Poppins

and it could just work... the tactile sense of feeling the pull of an umberella would be more familiar than some other techniques I've read. Nice

Agreed,
I like the idea of the umbrella pulling upwards too. Something about that feeling that's quite unique, yet we all know it. Will have to try and remember that tonight.

Speaking of things we all know, isn't it odd, that if you think about it, we all know how a carpet tastes. Silly thought, but interesting how memory works, that memory being obviously from early childhood, and quite irrelevant, you'd think we'd forget it.

How's this for capturing that hypnagogic/lucid feel? One of my goals is to get myself into this scene. Perhaps I'll try your suggestion eggbert!

I would never be able to have THAT clear of hypnagogic imagery. Its usually very light colors in contrast with the black of my eye lids.

Really? Mine can be exactly like the picture, as can my LDs be!

I dont know, thats just me.

Usually Im not very successful with WILDs though, Ill get to the HI and vibrations, then I just fall asleep because I dont know what goes next.

After i enter SP, the vibrations get really intense, then die out. But if i open my eyes or move, Ill just wake up in real life. So I dont know what to do :/

Plus my HI is very weak. I get exploding head syndrome alot too

I see you've only had 6 LDs since 2005. Maybe try reading some of the tutorials and try some other methods. Just a suggestion.

Feel free to post results.

lol spaceexplorer, I don't actually know what carpet tastes like, but I think I know what you mean. Personally, I distinctly remember the taste of party streamers.

Is the feeling we have at OBE.
The pull/ripping of our energy body away from ours upwards and out.
This feeling we all admit to having is this happening.
Why would our LD have a natural tendancy to do this - we just arrive at our dream.
Another point to add to the question of OBEs.
