no blackness in front of my eyes

[jalef]

I dunno where to write it so i write it here.

When i woke up this morning  i just lay in bed for several minutes and thought about many things. i then decided to try to project and cloed my eyes. in the blackness were several deep purple areas that spread and after a few seconds there was no blackness at all but only purple. i first thought it was kinda afterimage but still it was somehow fascinating not to stare into a blackness but into a purpleness...
i just stared at it for some seconds and then thought that it must be the light that is partially absorbed by my eyelids and i covered my eyes with my hands. the purple color went away and i saw a blackness butit felt somehow like its 3d. i opened my exa, closed them again but now everything was normal. what was it?

Focus 7 to 10 - You'll see swirling colors and sometimes pulsing lights.
Focus 12 - Expanded conscious awareness which has the 3d blackness.

When you first awaken, you are still at a peaceful and focused state which gives you a head start. Congrats, you made it to Focus 12 for a few seconds.

When you try to make it to Focus 12 again though, do not strongly desire to get to that state. You have to be a passive observer with only a mild air of curiousity, otherwise if you get too excited or desperate then you will find yourself unable to make that state again.

So that means I'm in focus 7 - 10 every time I shut my eyes..?

I think you have the focus levels a bit confused. I get in the exact same state described earlier, with 3d blackness and swirling colour, but I am not in sleep paralysis. F10 IS sleep paralysis, so its impossible for him to have been in F12 without first being in F10. Also, F12 is an actual OOBE.

F7?

Dont think you got to be in sleep paralysis to see swirling colors

Do you think this might be what your seeing? http://www.geocities.com/716948/hh/hhtext-inner.html I see colors when my eyes are closed too, but theres been times where ive seen real things as if my eyes were open.
