I have rather bad eyesight paired with Visual Snow Syndrome, and it's difficult to make a clear distinction between the symptoms of the condition, and astral and psychic senses. I have this condition since as long as I can remember, I have a bad sight overall. I see small, flickering dots in my vision 24/7, even with my eyes closed. It's kind of like seeing pixels, or dots of faint light appearing and fading away constantly, overlapping with my normal vision. I have almost all of the symptoms that affect my sight, and a few that are purely psychical. Like I have tinnitus at all times, my brain just filters it out so I don't hear it if I don't focus on it. The condition itself is neurological in nature, and my brain receives some kind of visual stimuli at all times, even with eyes closed.
Now, I have been working on my astral senses, as well as cleaning the upper chakras and I found it hard to make a distinction between my symptoms and possibly developing astral senses. I'm at the point when I can feel all of my upper chakras, minus the 6th chakra, but I'm working on it. I found out recently that most of the signs of opening astral senses/activity in the 3rd eye highly overlaps with the symptoms that people with VSS experience, as far as sight is concerned. Like seeing blobs of purple/indigo or other colors with eyes closed, seeing swirling shapes or pattern, seeing vibrant dots of red and blue light, seeing a glowing, light colored outline around people, etc. For these reasons it's really hard to make a distinction between the symptoms of the condition and 3rd eye/astral sight development. As a kid I saw purple blobs and swirling colors and shapes, but this faded away with time. After meditating on my senses I began to see them again, as well as seeing random dots of blue/red light, which is definitely something completely new. Altough, reading the experiences of people with VSS, I found out that a high amount of them sees the same things. Truth to be told, I would feel quite disappointed if it'd turned out that the stuffs I experienced was all caused purely by my VSS acting up. I was happy thinking that it was caused by me advancing and making small achievements, altough I'm not so sure about this anymore. It wouldn't really change anything though, I would continue working on myself either way, but still.
Another thing I've been experiencing is seeing my hands/objects with closed eyes, if I move them around in front of my closed eyes I'm gonna able to pick up on the movements of said object, both the exact shape and direction. If the object in question is motionless it's a lot harder to see. Usually, I see them in a weird way, the particles/pixels from my VSS will cluster around my hand, and follow the direction of the movements and giving me a clear outline. I've seen my hands light up in a color a few times, but normally it's just the colorless outline. I tried this in a completely dark room with eyes open before and saw the same thing, the outline and movements of my hands lighting up in the darkness. I didn't saw this talked about amongst people with VSS before, altough I've became highly skeptical about it. After all, my brain knows very well the exact position and shape of said objects or my hands even with eyes closed, and it might produce a non-existent but accurate picture based on the existing informations. This theory isn't that far stretched, considering that the flickering dots from the VSS are a form of constant visual hallucination produced purely by the brain anyways, at least as far as I know. I imagine it's a lot easier to tell these things with normal people who don't have this condition, but I have no idea what's the case with people who have it.
So yeah, how do I distinct the two things from each other? I don't know if there's members with VSS, but if there is I would like to ask how they see exactly, and what their experiences were when they worked on their upper chakras. Thank you for everyone who took their time and read this whole thing, I apologise for writing this much.
