Closed Eye Visuals - Not Tripping

So, for as long as I can remember, sometimes, when I close my eyes and relax - usually before going to sleep, but sometimes just during the day randomly - I start seeing all of these patterns and textures and shapes, and sometimes things will resemble objects and images will flash before me.
Anyone else experience this? When my friend described his closed eye visuals on acid, he said described it similarly to this. I've never really had closed eye visuals before - at least I don't recall ever having any.

Me too. Though I've had interesting closed eye visuals of some kind since I was pretty young, they're never as vibrant or intricate as when on psychedelics. I get pretty massive CEV on mushrooms, which I'm happy about, as well as others.
Have you tried DMT? I'll be damned if you take a decent amount and have no CEV.

I don't think I fried my brain enough to get CEVs without any substance, although if I rub my eyes I get nice shapes and patterns, but not anything compared to mushrooms.

ashland, do you smoke pot? how often if yes? ever since i started smoking pot alot (cause my doctor perscribes it) I began seeing imagery under closed eyelids. it isnt as significant as shrooms, its very faint and sometimes hard to make clear, but they are there and significant enough to notice.

I seem to get them at the most random times aswell. I get them quite a lot when I've got the heavy blink on the train on my way home or to university.

Yeah, I used to do this in school all the time when I had no assignments. I would just close my eyes really tight, put my head in my arm, and I would see lots of patterns, dragons, crazy things, etc, etc, etc, its pretty cool.

If I smoke a cigarette or cigar and just close my eyes; I get this awesome burst of red which starts out very subtle but gets brighter and redder, faster and faster, and it doesn't go away until I open my eyes again... But this might also just be the blood in my eye lids

According to Buddha, one of the tell-tale signs you have run out of life and are about to die is running out of closed eye visuals. Everyone should get them, just look harder(by relaxing more lol). My dad says he has a few bright colours left, they better not dwindle to quick.

When I was younger I saw a lot of closed-eye visuals. Now, I have to sort of "look" for them - trick myself into believing my eyes are open even though they are closed, and then it begins, sometimes geometric patterns, and sometimes a flood of strange but vaguely familiar images a la pot.
It's faint and dark compared to what I see on actual drugs, though.

I have been getting them a lot ever since I started meditating..
-------------------- "The finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion. Herein lies the germ of all art and all true science. Anyone to whom this feeling is alien, who is no longer capable of wonderment and lives in a state of fear is a dead man. To know that what is impenatrable for us really exists and manifests itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, whose gross forms alone are intelligible to our poor faculties - this knowledge, this feeling ... that is the core of the true religious sent iment. In this sense, and in this sense alone, I rank myself amoung profoundly religious men." -Albert Einstein

Well yesterday night I had the most intense CEV non drug induced trip ever... now mind you these are all extremely vivid as if it was real... more vivid than any dream I've had which is pretty strange.
I had some Electric Tears barely audible last night and as I closed my eyes I thought to myself (well this is because of the salvia I had recently, but it probably wasnt) and instantly everything turned green, then an alien (the common one with a big green head and dark eyes) appeared over me as I was on an operating table with a bright light in my eyes and told me something important (which sadly i forgot). Then the sun appeared (it was the only thing I could see, all black and then this sun) which had a face of some baby alien looking thing with 4 eyes, it whirled around and around, I then thought to myself "I bet i can control this" so the sun then transformed into a friend of mine, I saw her from a birds eye view although very close, laughing and smiling. From here on wasnt extremely vivid as the previous part, but I was in the woods traveling extremely fast as these ghost/bear looking things with immense mouths danced with each other, I dogdged all these trees (everything in the woods was an outline with a bit of depth because it was very dark) and things which seemed to never end. In kaliedoscapic-patterns I then saw millions of faces and what seemed to be ancient peoples.
This went on for about 6 or so minuts until i got distracted by a noise thus everything stopped. For not tripping on anything I'd say thats pretty cool.

I have the exact same thing as I'm lying in bed trying to go to sleep. I'll first start to see my room faintly through my eye lids and then right in the middle shapes and geometric figures appear and start spinning, it turns into faces and scary looking random things just spinning away. I thought I was going crazy but it's cool to see that I'm not the only one this happens to.
I even get them when my eyes are open and I'm lying in bed. Shadowy like figures dance on my ceiling sometimes, its really weird.

I get them too, and have for a long time, even before doing any drugs, but I think drugs helped me recognize them more. i get incredibly complex ones occasionally but mostly its just blurry colors and shapes, on drugs they aren't much different besides being clear and above all much more organized and mathematical.
I get words a lot too but I can never read them even if I see them clearly... it's strange I can see them and recognize them as words but they are unreadable. I have been able to control them to some extent... or at least guide them in a particualr direction, when I really concentrate on them or am really calm they can become extremely realistic environments (mimicking the one I am in normally) but this has only happened once or twice.
But like I said on drugs they are different its more like a light show then. instead of what I would describe as a window into my subconscious.
