A few nights ago I was lying in bed and ready to go to bed. Usually before going to sleep I tell myself "I will have a lucid dream" over and over. This time I just laid on my back and focused on everything. I was aware of the sound of my fan, the gentle gust of wind on my body, my tongue resting in my mouth, and all kinds of things of this nature. I'll do this alot of times throughout the day at times to improve my awareness. There was something different about this time though, like it just felt like I was way more aware than I've ever been.

After feeling myself slipping into sleep, riding it out, and usually waking up for about five times and a half an hour later I rolled onto my side to try and sleep again. At times it felt like my awareness was so high and I was in a deeply meditative state I could feel my spirit leave my body. I would wake up right after with an interesting feeling I've never felt before. Anyway, this time when I was sinking back into sleep I thought to myself "I can't get hurt in my dreams." Immediately a voice that was not my own answered and said "anyone can." This voice sounded kind of all knowing in a way and immediately afterwards I saw hundreds of blue spheres all clustered together moving in front of my eyes.

I opened my eyes and still saw them exactly the same. They were pretty much completely covering my entire field of vision. My heart was beating rapidly (primarily because that voice's answer startled me) and I saw a hole open up in the middle of the spheres. I felt like my body was inside my body and it was flung into the circular tunnel. I traveled through the tunnel and was excited because I thought that there would be a dream awaiting me at the end of it. At the end of the tunnel I just saw different colored swirls moving all about, but no dream. The dots and tunnel travel continued for about three minutes and I probably went through four to five more times. At the end of it I woke up in awe wondering what the hell just happened?!

I know this is long so I'll wrap it up. The craziest thing is that when i was much younger I would see these spheres alot, mostly blue but sometimes red while lying down at night. This also reminded me of one night when I was young and I saw so many of these dots for a long time, and later that night I wondered around my house interacting with a dream I was seeing but still believe i was in my house. At the time I had no idea what was going on, but I just knew it was incredibly long and annoying. After having this experience again I'm really intrigued at what this is and was wondering if this has happened to anyone else?

Sorry this is long but I just really want to know what this was. Also sorry if this doesn't belong here. I pmed a couple mods where I should post this but received no response. Thanks for reading everyone!
