Ever since I was maybe 4 or 5 years old I’ve had a recurring dream of being inside this dark concrete space, looking into another room, closed off by a wall-sized pane of glass. Inside is a large floating boulder-looking thing made of something like black obsidian. It pulsates and grows, and presses upon the glass until the glass finally shatters and falls down on me. I still dream this sometimes during the first few minutes of sleep.
I have had something very similar... It has to do with space and blackness... It starts with a ??thread which suddenly expands out into a monolithic blackness that occupies almost all space... very hard to describe, but sound like your is very similar. kinda.
i so love this... not only because of the art but because of the subject too. i used to have a similar recurring dream. it vanished, unfortunately - haven't had it for years.
could this be your version of that falling sensation people sometimes get when their body is falling asleep but their mind is still semi-awake? it all sounds to me like the "closing" of your consciousness, the subconsciousness wrapping around your self-awareness...
Thanks! I think it definitely is...I seem to have it when there's extra stimuli going on as I'm trying to sleep, like riding in a car. It's really abrasive and disorienting...the pop of the glass is like a bomb going off in my head, and I'll wake up and not know where I am and anxious. It comes with this feeling of smothering
it's probably not the most pleasant feeling for you, but it sounds awesome from your description, heh... like a rollercoaster of sensations. so this might be some short interesting reading for you, then: [link]
