Became Conscious during Sleep Paralysis and Saw Lines of Numbers in 3D

[NeverOnce]

I usually become conscious during sleep paralysis and from there I try to enter a lucid dream. Usually, along with body vibrations and ringing in the ears I see 3D geometric shapes before I enter the lucid dream. However, this time I saw lines of numbers in 3D, VERY VIVIDLY. This has never happened to me before and it astonished me. Did anyone else ever experience something like this?

Hi, this is my first post. I just got recently interested in LD,I've had some success so far (but not really much). Yes, I've had such an experience some months ago, I'm not that sure they were numbers,They seemed to me like tiny vertical streams of little bright empty squares...if that makes sense. Don't know what they were and I have never had such an experience thereafter.

Looks like you guys have seen the true nature of "The Matrix" . I've heard a few people saying they achieve this via Astral Projection. Probably a HH though, a really good one.

Those were HH - hypnogogic hallucinations. They can get pretty vivid and real looking. You can see geometric shapes, text, people, landscapes, moving or not moving pictures... Pretty much anything. They are always surprising and cool. Happy dreaming, guys Btw, that was most likely not SP that you woke up in, or gained awareness. All these HH and sensations are signs of falling asleep. SP kicks in much later, when we already asleep and dreaming.

I'm always fully aware that I'm having sleep paralysis when it happens and try to fall back asleep into a lucid dream from there, but the hallucinations I have are really creepy so it freaks me out and I always just wake up. :/
