ok i posted this in another thread, but it received no response..so ill try again here.

first off let me tell you that, recently...but not frequently, i am able to see the outlines of my room with my eyes closed....i cannot see details, patterns, or anything specific, just dark shades of "shadow" so to say.

yesteday i stumbled across a thread stating others have been able to do this...i found this very interesting, and decided i would try it again that evening...

so last night i went to bed...it was approx midnight, and i closed my eyes hoping my mind would focus on these "shadowy outlines"

but it wouldnt work, absolute darkness....however i began to pace my breathing, and VERY shortly afterward, i experienced what i can only describe as a light being turned on.

it was a very abrupt and instantaneous flash, i could see literally everything in my room...the design on the blankets, the form of my body under the blankets, the woodgrain on the dresser, EVERYTHING..

needless to say i wasnt ready for it, and it scared the living s**t out of me...i instantly opened my eyes, and it was blackness once again.

the whole experience lasted maybe 5 minutes from laying down to seeing the "flash"


so recap i lay in bed, my eyes shut, entire room is black, the room lit up very bright, i opened my eyes and it was back to complete darkness.

i was VERY afraid lol...but i think if it IS something "supernatural?" it would be worth it to learn to cope with and harnass this "ability".


any help is more than appreciated, i feel very....weird ATM...since this happened its just about the ONLY thing that i can think about.

HOLY CRAP!

I've just started experiencing this recently, like say in the last 2 - 4 weeks! I never knew what to make of it, as it's never happened to me before. Now I find myself trying to turn it on when my eyes are closed at bedtime. I tend to try to have fun w/ it, seeing how long it takes to see this and how long it stays 'on'. The weirdest damn thing this is, and never really thought about anything of it being 'supernatural, but very weird when I make it happen. It's like yourself, really - I see the dark outline of everything in the room w/ me, and not just the outline, it has depth, or substance..... but very different from when looking at things w/ ur eyes open!

I have never heard of this before, and this (thread) really got my attention. wow.

Haven’t got a clue IF it is ‘astral’ or ‘supernatural’ but it’s good to read here that I’m not the only one experiencing this.

I can imagine you feel weird but I promise you will get used to it! When I was in my teens I discovered I sometimes had this ‘ability’, that’s over 35 years ago. I still have this / see ‘stuff’. Back then I tried to explain what I ‘saw’ but when people start looking weird at you, there was a point I kept shut about it.

To be honest I think EVERYBODY has this ‘gift / ability’ but most people do not ‘focus’ onto this kind of experiences. Long ago I thought of it as looking through ‘dimensions’ but I believe now it has something to do with our brain and the vibration of the cells (DNA).
Somehow we ‘receive’ info into our brains, like ‘frequency waves’ and it’s being translated IN our brains. Hence the info goes right through our whole body and influences our senses.

Do you also ‘see’ little tiny white and black ‘dots’ (particles) moving when you close your eyes, when you’re sitting in the dark and just watch or / and even when you have your eyes open and focus onto f.e. a wall or the ceiling?

Someone told me it has something to do with the ‘cones’ in your eye that receive lightfall but I discovered when I focus in on it, as bringing my ‘mind’ to a spot OUTSIDE my brain, it’s harder to see the spots/dots. However when I just ‘watch’ and keep my ‘mind’ and focus INWARDS, I see it better.

Well I guess people will believe I’m genuine nuts now, it’s so hard to explain how the dots look like ……. What comes most close is they look like very fast moving particles, smaller then small.

Have to say this: I’m a very intuitive person, never had any interest for Math and such when I was young. Maybe it’s something that is more ‘normal’ for intuitive people? Or maybe it’s true and humans are evolving into a more ‘subtile’ being, energy-wise I mean.

Peace! S&F

YES! On all accounts, YES! When I was a young kid, now 36, I used to see exactly what you are talking about with the dots. They would "fly" like a swarm of bees (best decription I could think of) when I had my eyes shut or open at times. This happened for years but then it stopped and I forgot about it until once about a year ago. I remembered that happening and wondered if I could make it happen again. I tried once, it didn't happen, so I forgot about it again until I read your post.

As far as the seeing with your eyes closed, this started happening about a year ago and at first I could just about do it anytime I wanted but now only when "it" wants to happen. First time though scared me a little. I was completely conscious (spelling?) in my mind. Meaning I was having thoughts while it was happening and literally wondered if my eyes were actually opened. Then I opened them and realized they were closed. When this happens, I can see everything in the room as if I am wide awake. I can look around and I can see color. Very odd.

Have no clue what it means, probably nothing. Thanks for the thread!

Maybe you should do a little research on what you described.

Start with this
The Third Eye

[edit on 25-11-2009 by calcoastseeker]

I have been able to do that almost all my life.

If I leave my closet door open, even with my eyes closed in a pitch black room,I can "see"it open and I have to get up and close it.

Don't want the Boogey Man getting me you know.
