Dream life / sleep paralysis / lucid dreaming
Ever since I was young I have had a very active dream life.. I started getting sleep paralysis at a young age.. and often have patches of SP still.. I also have ended up having very vivid lucid dreams..
I’ve realised a pattern with it all.. my most significant sleep paralysis experiences were around the age of 14, where tall shadow beings were surrounding my bed, (I was watching this unfold in birdseye view) one was a smaller dark energy that hovered over my chest, I felt an immense pressure and then it began to suck the air out of me which I could physically feel, I could see a blue sort of electricity being sucked out of me and could literally feel it coming from my stomach..
The second time was when I was battling the slip into paralysis and as soon as I fell into paralysis all I could see was fire and hear this intense scream which I could only describe as a mix between and elephant and a lion.. it lasted for about 5 seconds then I broke out of it.. all the SP experiences I’ve had I feel like I’m being hunted by something, I’ve even heard what sounds like a huge animal smashing through my house up the stairwell into my bedroom.. I’ve heard whispers in my ear of my name.. it’s just really creepy shit 😅
With my lucid dreaming it has gotten to the point where every time I become aware inside the dream, my instant feel is to go to a place that feels like “home” so I look up and find the sky and travel through space..
One experience I was stuck in a room and was able to create a portal into space which once I got through I was flying through space following these lines that were golden and were twisting in a sphere shape, the golden lines had black hieroglyphics on them..
Another one I was in space and began to be sucked back towards what felt like the start of time, as I was going back there was another sphere shape but it was like a screen and it was playing like a movie of different ages as I passed through the different ages of time, it was bizzare but peaceful and I could feel the cool air / wind on my face and body is I fly..
The pattern seems to be like I’m being hunted during SP then wanting to return home during LD, I just want to know if anyone else has experiences like this or has explanations of sorts to elaborate on..
Happy dreaming team ✌🏽
