A few months ago, I was able to witness my aura from the very beginning. I was trying to fall asleep, and I suddenly realized there was a very faint tiny dot a bit below the center of my vision. It looked like a dead pixel on an LCD screen, but super tiny. It was very faint, almost black, at first. But it quickly became brighter. I focused on it, and I noticed that it wasn't a solid dot. Instead, it looked like it had the shape of a rectangle that was sort of morphing into another rectangle that was rotated by 45 degrees. A bit like a wireframe of a rectangle, actually. Then, the bright rectangle started pulsating and changing rapidly between very bright white and a dimmed white. That's when I realized that it must be an aura starting. It then followed the usual pattern of getting bigger and slowly moving out of my vision.

It was quite fascinating to observe it from the very beginning. But now I freak out every time I see any kind of white dot in my vision when I close my eyes at night. And actually, when you really focus, you will realize that there are many tiny white dots and weird shapes popping out when you close your eyes at night. We just never pay attention to that, but the "idle" activity in our brain and nerves generates some artifacts when we close our eyes.
