The Worm Within The Skull (The Splintered Cross Book 1)


As they meditated they grew their "force field" stronger than any other test subject they tested. I remember a few years ago while trying to go to sleep, i saw a faint fog like image. Like a faint white fog. I then tried to test this. I concentrated to try to visualize a horizontal line.

It took a few seconds but i was able to do it. Then, I wanted to see if I could "will" it to spin in either a clockwise or counterclockwise fashion. It took some concentrating but i was able to do it. Other images like a circle or triangle are i lil harder but can be done if I relaxed. How cool would it be to train yourself to see in another room before you enter. Well anyway, we are just getting the technology to decode the brain, and maybe we'll figure this out in the next decade!

Just found something on wiki that might be of interest called Closed-Eye Hallucinations. I see faces when i close my eyes and sometimes they change as I'm looking at them. I don't recognize any of them. When I close my eyes, i see a very bright red, and it turns darker and darker until its a very deep red with dots. My eyes start shaking, and even when I try to close them shut, my eyes open by themselves.

What does this mean? For the past two days I've been recovering from a dangerous five-day alcohol binge and what I'm seeing when I close my eyes are as follows: They scroll up just like on a computer screen and I can stop the scroll and read the contents of the email. Some go back years from people I've long forgotten. They are perfect images and scroll up extremely fast.

The entire star map, the laser pointers to stars extremely bright , moving images projected on star map, I could even see the Exit sign on the door. When the presention ended it started over. I almost fell down in the shower when I closed my eyes to shampoo my hair because I forgot that my eyes were closed. Oh yeah, and I'm also hearing sirens, voices, my cat's meows, the door knocking When I turn on the fan or air conditioner, I hear a woman's voice singing a song I've never heard before. This has been a really weird and painful detox, but I learned that there are tons of things in my mind I had no idea existed.

Photographic images that are ordered and flip by at incredible speeds. No more drinking for me.

I came across this blog because I googled "with eyes closed seeing black and red" For years, I have been seeing "molecule like things" floating around me. With my eyes closed, I will see dark and then bright red with black like spider webs filling it in. I also seeing round shaped blue. I have seen sparkles of rainbow colors with eyes open and which followed me down a hallway on the wall which eventually encircled me completely. I can look at objects and see images of people.

When I close my eyes I see faces. Sometimes they are suspended almost like a totem pole and they are young, old, in between, wearing hats and having hair. Mostly, there are only a handful I can see. There are a few that seem creepy and will overcome the other faces. Seldom, I can also see objects like buildings or see a human image hovering around my bed, sometimes, more than one. This happens alot and sometimes I feel fear but other times I am curious so I keep looking through my eye lids. I am exhausted due to this waves that comes infronta my eyes closed, i have been searching on the internet if anyone experiances this weired thing.

Often throughout my life, when my eyes are closed, I see a small circle of light with a dark shadow that spins steadily around it. It probably takes about 2 seconds for it to make a complete revolution. I'm pretty sure it goes clockwise. It's sort of like a searchlight going around and around except the center is the light and it emits a dark shadowy beam. It is not an after-image because I have seen it upon waking in a dark room. I don't believe it is an eye problem because I am only 32 years of age, I have seen it since I was a young kid and I have excellent eyesight.

It is not something I can consciously bring about. When it happens, it happens. Recently I have been getting acupuncture and during today's treatment I briefly saw it while my eyes were closed. This time, though, I realized maybe it could be a spinning chakra. I had never heard of chakras before I started acupuncture so had never before come to this conclusion. In fact, I had never really given much thought to it at all except to note that I see it from time to time when my eyes are closed. I do not agree with the more clinical point of view at all.

I have seen these faces for over 60 years. We all seem to see them in the same fashion. I feel there are connections that cannot be explained which is not at all clinical, but feel it is of a spiritual nature. Those who do not understand or have not experienced these visions would rather just explain it in a way that makes them comfortable.

I compare these visions to a young child of the age of three or four that is able to look at a photo of group of men from and point out his or her ancestor — naming them — and claims that this person is their friend and playmate. We share a gift that is not to be mocked or explained away, but rather stirs our physic abilities and our curiosity to know more about the unknown faces we see. There are never two the same as we gaze into their eyes and see their soul. They float into a continuous moving collage and enter from left to right, right to left, top and bottom, front to back, and extremely close.

So close, that our eyes, almost become their eyes and their lids begin to close in slow motion as they fade to another. True, they are without expression, yet peaceful. We view every wrinkle and detail of their face as they pass through our minds eye ever so slowly. What message do they bring to us, and if they spoke, what would they say? Sometimes when I'm trying to sleep and my eyes are closed, I'll be thinking and pondering about this and that and then all of the sudden my vision will be populated with red flashes that seem to fill up the expanse of the regular darkness that I see when mine eyes are closed.

When I close my eyes I can see this undescribable object way close to me. It is something that is hard to describe. I also see my self when I close my eyes but what my reflection does is weird. Think of it this way; when you replay something on a DVD it does it over and over again, and when you have a CD that skips it repeats the three to five word sentence over and over.

That is what I do when I close my eyes and see myself. It's my refelction that does that. It is extremely weird. Another thing is that, when my eyes are closed, I feel like I get pushed back and forth like those paddle ball toys. The ones you hit back and forth that have a string attached to the paddle aand the ball. It is a very odd experience, and this is something that happens 3 to 4 times a week.. Hello my name is Stephanie I'm 16 years old and I have the weirdest experiences, I see things happen in my head in a faint light maybe 1 time every couple weeks, and I had a feeling the other morning on my way driving to school as if there was going to be a car accident that day on that road.

Right before the bell rang to release the student from school there was an announcement telling student to take another road to a bad car accident. But has any of you expierienced anything like this? For most of the day, this occurred every time I even blinked. Today, it's not happening as often, but is still disconcerting. After my fiance died suddenly, I immediately started to have a number of things happen to me, but in order to stick to this topic, I'll skip to what I have seen.

While completely awake, but with my eyes closed, I have seen faces, birds, many, many hearts including the key to my heart locket , a UPS truck driving down a road he worked for them , numbers, words including the title of a love song that I then heard on the radio the very next day I see something at least once or twice week and have kept record of everything.

Sometimes the images are crystal clear and sometimes they are more faint.

They are usually in a yellow or pale white light although the UPS truck was in sepia tones. I have seen things in color as well. Sometimes the things I see are realistic like the truck and other times, they are just almost like outlines of objects. I have absolutely no doubt that he is doing his best to communicate with me.

Believe it or not. I have had very similar experiences my entire life. I am 37 years old. The best way I can describe it is by comparing the back of my eyelids as a movie screen in sepia. Like most others have reported, I often see strange shapes that move from one corner of my field of vision to another. However, I often see active scenes of people, faces which are unknown to me entirely. Some of the scenes I capture are of people participating in some benign activity like eating at a table in restaurant or boarding a bus etc.

Others are more pointed. I often see only a face all unknown to me. In the past only a few occasions have provided a clear "video" with sharp contrast and clearly defined edges. However, after years of searching for scientific explanation in literature with no satisfactory results, I began to conduct my own experiements with the phenomenon with some pretty intense and sometimes scary results. Relax and keep your eyes open for a minute or two or until your body is completely relaxed. As an image, or any obscure objects begin to move across your field of vision, focus your attention to the center of it and stay with it.

As it begins to move out of view, move it back to center simply by focusing back to center. While this may seem like a useless trick, it was a very important discovery for me as it allowed me to re-examine images with a lot of detail. I have found a way to keep the image a few seconds longer allowing me to examine other details of the "video" or image that I would of missed had I allowed it dissapear out of view. Here is the frustrating thing; I have only been able to reset images to center only one time.

But the following is an example that may give you chills emphasizing why only one second glance may be enough. In one particular "movie", I saw a twenty-something female sitting at a table in a restaurant. The table was nicley set with flowers in the center with proper dish and utensil settings for two. She was holding a menu with one hand and pulling her hair back with the other. That is all I got in the first pass as the "video" moved from the lower left of my eye to the top right. I was able to read the menu. The menu consisted of a list of peoples names in two columns not menu items.

I was able to get the first three names first, middle, last. I got up immediately and wrote the names down. I was completely beside myself. I did not know anyone by these names. Only one of the three was a fairly common name except it came with a middle name. It took me a week to work up the nerve to google these names. Much to my relief, I found nothing other than the fact that in this big world of ours, there are people out there with the exact same names.

I have made a point to stay open minded with this phenomena and refuse unlike others to rapidly attribute this to mystical communication or messages with aliens or spirits etc. I insist on working with this on my own with out discussing with professionals of various fields as I am afraid they may quickly diagnose me with some dillusional disorder. In the interim I just think it is neat and interested in working with techniques I have discovered on my own to manipulate and interact with this phenomena. To avoid risk of boring you with something which may or may not still interest you, I will leave to you, to reply interest in hearing more of what I have found upon coreographing atmospherics, lighting etc.

Dont worry, none of this involves drugs. I am an active duty Marine and proudly drug free. Found your blog while working graves last night and searching Google on my phone. I too have visual experiances shortly after I close my eyes at night. My experiances have happened on occasion for as long as I can remember, I am 34 now.

Mine seem to be controlled as I have to look for them. Normally when I go to bed I shut my eyes and try to disregard any sensory input. My mind is the hardest to shut off as I think alot and my mind can wander. However, if I focus on my visual input while my eyelids are closed,I have seen people, objects and places in great detail. This happens moments after I close my eyes, again only if I want to look for them. I am fully awake as it usually takes me anywhere from mins to fall asleep.

It does take some effort for me to find them, conditions have to be right. A little bit of light in the room, eyelids loosely closed.. I start by watching the floating white dots and even haze that is there.. I have to pan around my field of vision slowly watching and waiting for these white dots or haze and I look for a rift or tear in the darkness for lack of a better word. Once I find it I can zoom in and focus on what is inside. What I see is always random, never familiar, and always in motion..

Pretty much like having sunglasses on. Usually by the time I have focused and zoomed in enough make out facial features or detail depending on what I see the sight is gone and I look for the next one. It lasts no more than 5 seconds with the last second being in greatest detail and focus. Then I can start over or just go to sleep, usually the latter as its frustrating that I cant hold on to the sight. This is more vivid than a dream, yet no audio, I have been able to control some of my dreams when lightly sleeping, just before I wake up..

The only control I have over them is if I want to look for them. I would like to know I know where the white dots come from, and I have to sift through those to find this rift that opens up.. I wonder if a person who was blind from birth has experiances like this.. Great comments on your blog, I will be following.

My experiences are much the same, i hit the pillow close my eyes, im not yet asleep i am still very much wide awake. Its all black then figure appears, not all at once its coming from a distance, the facial features become clear for a minute until it zooms right up into my eyes and leaves, another one comes same thing different person, could be male or female or a child. I've seen faces, scenes like I was at a certain place, a view like I'm looking at the stars. And I've even seen friends doing certain things, thinngs kept secret but came out sooner or later. But these never just happen.

When I lay down and close my eyes its something I can choose to do. I in no way believe its some psychic thing, 3rd eye, and definitely don't believe I'm seeing spirits or something. It has to be something to do with your own thoughts. But I've gotta say, it really happens to me when I focus on it.

The steps had ceased altogether and the stone felt slimy to the touch, like a serpent's lair. He wandered through the fens, seeking a Door. Nothing to do with Dionysus! You will do the things which you promised and take your rightful place on the —" "Yes, yes, I would do all of that and more, Tyrion Lannister. They passed into the cave and Bran struck flint and steel. She crossed the room suddenly, standing in front of him so he was forced to take a step back to see her face.

And the detail can be truly frightening. And like others, I can't believe pther folks are talking bout this. Sometime when I rest my eyes and close them, after a few min a hole opens up and its like a portal or something cause around the hole is like a distortion but inside is a clear image of something as if I had my eyes open and I was looking around, and sometimes it's like looking through a peep hole in a distance and I focus on in and it zooms in, and I see through, and its like IM looking though a birds eyes gliding over the filed or forest moving fast and circling.

I also have my dreams of other times where its me but I have a difrent body and its a difrent era, one time I had a dream where I was being pursued and shifter into a wolf and then a bird, it was also a difrent era.

Robert E. Howard

And a few days ago I had a dream of a future, it was always the past when I had these dreams but this time it was the future, and I felt like I was an ancestor of my family and in that time I was 13 and I didnt know war and there was only peace. Different medications I take cause this as a side effect. When taking Namenda, I see visions and instead of the usual "black" or "darkness" in my eyes that I see when I go to sleep in a full dark room, I begin to see silver flashes.

Imagery, of people that I have thought of throughout the day. I haven't taken Namenda since. They put me on FanApt and this appeared to control this for a few years. But the symptoms reappeared. When I see those images they are typically of family members.. It lasts for a few minutes and annoys me. However this happens to me nightly. And it frustrates me. I get so angered by the experience that it makes it more difficult to fall asleep, because something kicks in like a defense mechanism and my ego starts getting out of control. I wish someone knew what this was and how to stop it.

It's happened to me for 12years now. I don't consider it synesthesia, since I can't smell a color or hear a color or flavor or what not. But ever since doing GHB as a street drug I've had this experience. I deeply regret this. When I close my eyes I see flashes of people I've never seen before like this girl wearing red hoody looking at me and she looks sad.

It is a lot clearer when riding in a car in the day light going past trees close your eyes and it creates a strobe light effect and I can see them more clearly. Still don't know what it means but it works.. Also I have asked other family and friends if they do that to and I haven't found anyone that thinks that normal. I see things very vividly.

My forehead feels very strange and sometimes it feels like im going to faint. As soon as I close my eyes, I start seeing faces. Faces of people that I have never seen before, many of them. Always in black and white, exspressionless. They fade in and then fade out. All kinds of people.. I have often wondered what this means. Have been told it is an anointing, a very blessed and significant event that is handed down through generations.

Worms of the Earth

The weirdest part about it is once it was as if I was in a car and we crashed, then as I opened my eyes I got a phone call from a friend saying he'd been in a crash, it skats me out really bad tbh. Faces, I can deal with, they're usually of people who have died, but still. I too see faces and people. Sometimes they look nice and sometimes they look demonic. I am in my 30's and this has gone on as long as I can remember.

The people seem to be moving toward me and come at me in a continous stream. I also see what looks like the star gazer screen saver. I am awake but my eyes are closed - I will then see a pin point of light that turns into what looks like a lot of stars in the sky. I f I focus, the stars seem to move at warp speed and I get the sensation of travelling forward and through them - after I go through the stars I drop into an image of scenery that I can best describe as being the negative of a roll of film. I do this often and have had many images come through.

I now can move the image in a degree way that gives me a btter idea of what I am seeing. Sometimes it looks like the inside of a moving car other times it's like a satellite image from way up in the sky. I am not on drugs and don not have mental issues.

What the heck am I experiencing? I closed my eyes to go to sleep, on closing them, I felt as if I was below something, like rocks or moutains, where I was below there was a reddish glow- it seemed as though I was hovering just before I was completely below. Above that there was a white light, it kind of came in from all over above- but it was foggy, and some parts very clear.

I actually raised my hand to see if I could touch it, but noticed it would go away a bit if I just didn't relax- so when I very calm I saw figures or a skull, but then I was just surrounded by white, no more reddish glow It literally scared me. Why would I see that with my eyes closed??? I could see other objects, just seems liked old broken parts of something like a shed or door. It was so weird, I am not religious at all but something seems weird.

Then the visions last night. I was completely awake-. When i went to stay at my sisters i would see faces, some good and some not. Sometimes at night when I'm trying to sleep, I see colors and shapes moving about. After a while, they become more distinctive. They usually turn into a purple or green or red shape of a hummingbird or dragonfly. I know this because I can see flitting of wings. Sometimes they are four legged animals. I also saw some scary things that were more vivid, like a disfigured little boy and on at least three or four separate occasions, I awoke to find a dark, pointy spider thing above my head.

It dosent bother me now since I have moved. But the most interesting experience to me is the image I saw of a woman. Nothing very distinctive, just her body shape and hairstyle and desk. I also saw a round man. That was a few months ago. Just a few weeks ago, I went to class for the first time and I had a deja vou moment.

My teachers body I realized, it was the same body that I saw when I closed my eyes that night. Same with the round man, I'm sure he is my political science teacher. I've had a few experiences. This was just recently, and I'm wondering if this has to do with supernatural things. Anyhow, I'm only going to talk about this one specific time of experience.

I went to bed angry at my sibling and I was trying to go to sleep. I started falling asleep. Felt like I was going to knock into sleep right then, right?! But then, I felt a tingling rush from the back to my left neck the feeling you get when you realize something supernatural is coming at you. I heard noises too and didn't open my eyes immediately. I was already feeling lazy cuz of my sleepiness I was sorta dozing off already.

I started seeing an image of a woman's face. The form kept forming clearer, I saw red lipsticks on her. It was almost as real as a photo in my closed eyelid vision. It forms the center of a skull and then "poofs" it's a face. And then for some reason, the face started to look like some kind of demon face figure I've had other experience like this.

Anyways, all this happening, I thought I could erase the image out but I couldn't, so I had to open my eyes. I opened my eyes a few times kind of like a flashlight being clicked on and off quick , to realize the noises I heard was that of my sibling being on my left side earlier, and still on her laptop with some music on, right next to my left side lobe in the dark, but with her laptop screen shining out in the midst of it all.

Now,when I kept blinking and shutting the eyes for a few seconds longer, the image s just kept on forming, didn't mention a word to my sister. I prayed, and said, "You know what?! I am not afraid, the Lord is greater. I tried to recollect the images if it was real afterwards because after praying, I didn't see the face s anymore. One thing I know is that, I did try to bring the image s back from some really lame reason, I was trying to figure out, how it came about, I don't know the face s or do I?

But I wonder if this has to do with the attitude I had while dozing off and the electronic my sibling had on next to my left side, right by my ears, you know. Now my other experiences, I don't remember if I went to bed with a bad day or what ever day but I have seen people's faces: Those times, I simply, open my eyes and shut for just a few seconds, and it subsides. Anonymous, I've read from and it sounds familiar to me too. When i close my eyes when i jump into bed never happens at any other time i see most of the time a white sort of haze that appears and disappears.

It's perfectly normal -- your brain at play when there's no well-structured input to regulate it! When I close my eyes either to just rest or when I go to bed to sleep, the visions I see are angels, usually in the distance but perfectly formed with large glorious wings and always they are white. I don't feel scared by this, it actually fascinates me and I look forward to it. I would be very grateful if you could give me your opinion please, thanks: I've seen images for as long as I can remember.

It can be faces or scenes or objects. I don't remember ever hearing anything although it seems that I do remember seeing people talk. Sometimes it comes to me by accident just before drifting off to sleep. However, often I intentionally try to see, having read about Edgar Cayce and his claim that we all have this ability. I simply close my eyes and allow my mind to go into neutral and wait for the beginnings of an image. Once I recognize the image as something it becomes much more well defined, similar to looking at clouds. However, it is never people or scenes frome my awake life. I've never been able to direct the viewing like Cayce could.

Every time I've tried, I become more conscious and lose that special state of relaxation. I usually forget what I see, I'm positive I could describe out loud what I see at the time, but I've never tried to get someone to write down what I would say, mostly because what I see seems so mundane. I've assumed we all have this, it's just a question of whether you realize it before drifting to sleep and forgetting. In my online research it appears to be similar to a hypnagogic state, however I don't ever recall the paralysis that's supposed to accompany it.

Anyway, I've never feared it and I actually attempt to develop the ability to stay in this semi-wakeful for longer periods. Direct follow up comments to Cayce Wannabe. It is very vivid, like I am seeing something that is actually in my eyes. It's not floaters, it is like it is growing on the edge of my eyeballs and all the blades of grass are like tentacles whipping around, almost like they are alive.

I had trouble relaxing to go to sleep last night because they were so distracting. When I would open my eyes, I could see the "grass" all over my sheets and pillowcase in the dark room. I finally got up for a little while and then went back to bed and it wasn't as bad. I keep wondering if there is some kind of microscopic parasitic stuff growing in my eyeballs. My name is Madi I'm 16 and I see terrifying faces behind my eyes when I close them some nights.

I know they are men but they don't look human. I feel like they want to hurt me and it is really scary. My counselor thinks it is rooted from my severe depression and anxiety.

Anon Fri May 03, You need to find psychological help. There is a reason your brain let's you see those faces, it might be because of a traumatic experience in your past or some kind of brain damage, but there are experts that need to find out the reason. I don't know where you live but I'm sure a doctor could tell you where to find help. I hope you find what you are looking for. I concur with Dietl's advice. To readers who see things without being emotionally unsettled, or who are only unsettled because they think it's weird to see things, I want to be reassuring.

To readers disturbed by what they see, I recommend counselling. Im 14 years old and i very rarely have dreams. Its like 1 out of The nights that i go to sleep and dont have any dreams are very quik. One second im closing my eyes and another second im getting up in the morning. I think i need help because the dreams that I rarely have are about the world ending. Please help, i want to have more dreams and less world-ending dreams.

I've seen faces, people dancing, certain scenes and scenery. I read that someone said that seeing these images could point to multiple sclerosis or hypertension? Can you elaborate on that? This particular image has only happened once. Started with wavy haze, appearing, than disappearing. Then ball shaped haze starting in the distance, getting larger the closer it gets. It stops briefly, then the middle opens up starting with a little tear, then fully opens up to a completely CLEAR view of what looks like a brain with wiggleing, worm like shapes. Really fasinating, and have tried to get it back, but only once has it appeared.

I have had many of these same experiences. I saw one night the creation of the universe. Wide awake- sitting up- eyes closed. I was like- oh my gosh! That is how the term "seeing stars" came about. That phrase came from people who saw actual stars. I have also had experiences in dreams, while awake, but usually in the drifting off to sleep state.

I have learned through time that many of these experiences come when my ancestors want to reach me. Sometimes they have a message for me. Sometimes they just want to comfort me. Sometimes they are just there. One thing I know- they are real people and they want us to know them. As I've done family history I've had more of these experiences and they've made more sense. Sometimes bad spirits interrupt a normal if you can call it normaal! I've been experiencing this for 16 years now.
