Title: Hypnogogic

Hypnagogia

Hypnagogia is the experience of the transitional state from wakefulness to sleep: the hypnagogic state of consciousness, during the onset of sleep. Its opposite state is described as hypnopompic — the transitional state from sleep into wakefulness. Mental phenomena that may occur during this "threshold consciousness" phase include hypnagogic hallucinations, lucid thought, lucid dreaming, and sleep paralysis. The latter two phenomena are themselves separate sleep conditions that are sometimes experienced during the hypnagogic state.

I woke up at 3AM and it took me a while to fall back asleep.

I started having a hypnogogic experience but in a way I've not experienced it before. Usually, as I begin to drift I am still centrally located in my body. The typical sensations slowly creep over me and I begin to disconnect.

Instead, this time, I was immediately disconnected. I was existing on an axis or plane. It felt like my body as awareness was separate from my physical body and yet the tingling sensations normally associated with my physical body felt like I was being teleported or shifting from one 90 degree angle to another. I had no clue what was happening and could only say, "huh?" "what?" as I was moving around from axis to axis, or shifting from plane to plane. Somehow my Mother's energy was present and in the room.
