I would say that it is. Everyone's hypnogogic state is different. You seem to be on the right track. Let me refer you to this: https://www.dreamviews.com/wild/1330...-bad-here.html |

Hi anyone who sees this I’m quite new to lucid dreaming, first of all I’ve been practicing the WBTB method for over 2-3 weeks with no success until now. What I’ve been doing for those week is waking up 6 hours after I fall asleep, then lie down straight with my eyes closed trying to remain awake however I always fall asleep. Until last night, I learnt a new method where you read for around 2 mins and put some water on your face and it drastically helps you stay awake. So I did that and after 5 mins I felt a weird stretch/weight on my belly, but I could still move my body so I wasn’t in sleep paralysis. After 15/18 mins something weird happened, my body started vibrating or just tingling all over. Then after looking at the blackness of my eyelids I started to see little dots probably around 90 i could see. Then there were multi coloured diamonds moving around the dots, I was quite certain I was in a hypogogic state. So after 30 secs of that I tried to move but I could easily move and I did a reality check and I wasn’t in a dream. So I must know was I doing everything right, and should I’ve waited longer in that state, and was I about to enter sleep paralysis |

Yes, you were in a hypnagogic state. Also, that vibrating/tingling sensation you felt is a sign of what people often refer to as "sleep paralysis" (It's actually REM atonia.) |

dreams can be opportunities not to be slept through but to be explored ~~ me 1957-lololol
First of all, and to be clear, anything I offer as a possibility will always be based on my experience alone. |

It certainly sounds as if you got yourself into that wonderful place between the waking dream and the sleeping one. That is one of my favorite places to hang out and it has taken me through some interesting transitions even though I have yet to experience a true WILD from it. |

The more I gaze....the more I crave to see
When you next stand at cliff's edge....will you finally learn to fly?
