So I was attempting WILD again and this time I decided to forgo
the counting and, instead, focus on the hypnagogics as my anchor.
I had barely and auditory at all but, in focusing on the blackness
behind my eyelids, I started to develop some images. At first, I just
saw little grey patterns. But then I started getting color. First a blue
sky illuminating a silhouette of mountains, second a view of continents
and an ocean ( very basic though. just blue and black ). then stuff
started getting more detailed I started seeing a white bird flying in
front of the ocean/continents view. Then more views of the bird and
eventually a view of extreme detail. Then I started seeing scenes. The
most prominent of which was a church. I was in the cathedral and I
could see the night sky through the rafters. There was some sort of light
outside and I was so amazed at how blinding it was when it move out from
behind the struts. or more so when I moved so that it was in view. I don't
remember everything as there was a lot of imagery and it was all quite a
jumbled mess but I remember having one experience where I was in a scene
and I had an auditory hypnagogic that matched the visual. I am so excited.
Mostly by the church scene, it was just as vivid as a dream. I am going to
go get some food from the anchor, an eatery at my university, and come
back to my dorm to try again
