So I've had a lot of questions about SP and WILDing, but no matter how hard I look around the forums, I can't seem to find a straight answer. A lot of the answers are contradictory or just plain confusing. Now, I know WILDing experiences vary from person to person, but I'd just like get some more intel on this stuff. Sorry if I ask questions that have been approached several times already.

1. Is SP essential to entering a lucid through WILD? Is it a sign that you are on the right track and about to reach the lucid state?

2. Is it necessary to have hallucinations in SP state? In other words, is it possible to go right by and not notice anything but just vibrations?

3. What do people mean when they say that during SP, there are first and last vibrations, etc.? Does each "wave" end, and another one start?

4. When should we open our eyes/ get up after SP? Do you even need to physically open your eyes?

5. How would you "fail" a WILD? Would going through SP, and then return to normal state be considered failing? Is failing usually just chance related or does it have to do with your concentration?

6. Lastly, can you still see SP hallucinations with your eyes closed? Or do people see it when them when they try to break out of SP and open their eyes? Even if you open your eyes, can you still see them in the dark?

Sorry for the overload of questions.
