Isnt this something you can develop into a WILD perhaps? Hypnagogic immagery?The other day I lay down to sleep, and the light was on- I usually observe it for a bit and then it fades, or I go out. This time I actually could see a scene, like in dim light. Then I fell asleep. There are a lot of things about this phenomenon that are written on the net, some more 'mythological' than others, but it appears that it's a phenomenon that seems to evolve, even if slowly.
