Hello dreamers, I have a question of definition that I’m sure at least one of you can answer. When I am trying to fall asleep,the black that normally is devoid of anything but little flecks of white light like TV static turns into pictures. I don’t mean like incredibly vivid high definition pictures but like sort of fuzzy images of random stuff. there are rarely any sounds. I have always been able to see these but lately i have been able to control what happens in them to an extent. but it is a challenge, like i am fighting against something for control of them. if i just close my eyes and relax i can see them almost instantly. Are these hypnogogia? If so than why can i see them so easily when everyone else needs to do WILD to see them? If they’re not then what are they? The Quasar thanks you for your contribution. 
Those images are the first stages of hypnagogia. If you close your eyes for a few seconds and relax you can easily start to see them; it takes no effort whatsoever. If you just passively watch it, it will slowly develop into a dream.
That happens very often when you are falling asleep, especially in the night. I doubt that it will develop into a dream. You are merely entering NREM-1, which does include some sort of HI. However, after that, I doubt that you will see anything more until you are actually in a REM state, which won’t happen earlier than after 90-120 minutes after falling asleep.
If you want to do WILD, however, I strongly advice you to wake up after 4.5 - 6 hours of sleep. That is the most suitable time for a WILD, since you will directly enter the REM phase. And it will be a lot easier to fall asleep.
