What a fascinating thread to stumble across. I experienced something similar around five years ago, also after a very intense dream. There are also
dozens and dozens of other accounts at the bottom of
this page in the comments section (I believe one
of the people who runs the site replied earlier in this thread).
One of the comments -- from Alexandra Curtis on June 21, 2015 -- said she was watching a movie on alien abductions the night before the marks
appeared... which could surely be a coincidence, but I would say it argues for this being some form of unconsciously projected physical manifestation
(eg: blood contusion), most often bought on while intensely dreaming. Subjects under hypnosis have had measurable effects on unconscious bodily
processes (such as blood flow), so there's a loose precedent.
Also, I know people sometimes see geometric shapes in their vision for a few seconds/minutes after waking up; could this be linked to some of the
formations of the markings? Mind's eye made manifest?
