25/Jul/2011: "What's On The Tele, My Dear?"
25/Jul/2011
"What's On The Tele, My Dear?"
As I had a dry spell lately, I now reinforced my endeavours by another step-up using another place to lie down than my bed, as many projectors also recommend to do. So I get up after 2-3 hours of sleep from my normal bed and lay down on a couch (arranged as a bed) in my living room. Again: I am lying strictly on my back so as not to fall into deep sleep (I am notoriously a side-sleeper).
After a while, I get into the state, no vibrations, and feel a very hard pressure/energy on/around my hands. The way I now 'learned' to be lying down is that my arms are now usually stretched out beside my body with my hands directed to my hips (giving myself sometimes healing energy as I also have a hip prob).
As the pressure is familiar (although as strong as never before), I think/telepath sth like : "Oh, it's you again, ok, let's get to work." I don't remember any 'being lifted' this time. Maybe I just 'phased' into my living room. I do not see anything again, it is dark. However I mind-sense that it is my living room (not the usual 'portal' this time), I am lucid enough to know 'where' I am.
This time I feel again I'm holding hands with s.o. again (as usual!) on both sides, with my left and right hand. But my arms are stretched out wide to the left and right side this time, not before me. As I lately learnt from Gálaca that it is highly likely that there are indeed different helpers who help me out, I get to the most logical conclusion drawn by this 'body' posture:
"Oh, so there's two of you this time?"
The confirmation will indeed come (indirectly) later. First I try what I wanted to try anyway in this same repeated situation: communicating by y/n-questions via hand squeezing: left hand means 'yes', right hand means 'no'. (It is not mentioned here but I already did that before during one exit with a success).
I do not remember exactly anymore what I asked. Probably, it was the question if I should try to 'see' now. However, this time no squeezing results. I would expect (or hope for) the left hand to be squeezed (a 'yes').
I then direct my 'hearing sense' - more to the left side - as if to wait for a voice. I also remember I tried to turn my head (but nothing was to be seen).
Nothing happens at first. Tension rises. Then:
".. Yeeees."
A female voice. It sounds eerie, a bit forced out. I am not sure if this was the female voice I heard before, but I think it is another one. It didn't sound as loud as the other voice, either. So it's perhaps indeed a different person. She says 2 or 3 words more which I forget later.
Then I direct my thoughts again to the middle. I seem to have forgotten what to do, or maybe I tried to get clarity in my view then (don't remember).
Then I hear a voice on the right side. It is a male voice (unrecognized for me). Also not very loud but clear and distinctive. I do not know if it was said to me or to the female helper on the opposite side:
"We must turn on the television."
In my 'mind's eye' I then see suddenly the television of my living room (which would be behind me regarding the posture I was in) turn on and showing a news speaker reading sth from a paper (rather 80ies style news, no teleprompters...).
This seems to have confused me. I start to fade, PREES sets in. I am back in bed but keep my eyes closed. I seem awake, try to get into the state (and back 'up') again, but it all fails and after a while I get up, disappointed again.
Comments / Afterthoughts
"We must turn on the television" ... hmmm:confused:. Well, maybe I could leave out the 'tele' and then it makes perfect sense, since I wanted to "gain vision"? Moreover, translating the word compound literally yields an interesting aspect: 'tele', the Greek suffix, means "distant, far, remote"; 'vision', of course, means "sight, view, seeing". This translation also applies perfectly into my native language, which of course was used then. ('Fernseher' --> 'fern' = distant ("tele"); '-seher'= (here: sight/watching ("vision"))
I would not conclude that the male voice referred (literally) to "remote viewing", but the 'distant'-aspect possibly means sth similar regarding my situation? Maybe "he" really said that I should try to "see" now on a more "distant" level. Maybe this "distant" aspect refers to the "higher" plane/level/vibration I need to rise to in order to finally see (them?) and get ahead. So it's about sense development again/still. (Seeing them is not impossible and within my reach, as I have been close to this before! See some of the other lucidventures).
In need to try to get vision in the holding-hands-situation next time!
Instead, I again resorted to my 'hearing sense', which is always interesting, but wrong. It is also shown by the reluctancy / delay of the answers I get from the helper(s). Maybe this channel of communication (via 'voice) isn't so easy for the helpers either? There may be a lot of distortions in translation of meaning, too. This is also clear for my by some earlier events where I heard the (Ludmilla's) voice but could not always understand (everything) what she said.
Thus the next step is clearly laid out for me now. A 'higher vision' sense activated might probably also mean a "higher plane/vibration"? I cannot be sure, but I will try out next time. Hope I remember then (enough lucidity granted) what my plan of action is. But maybe one of them will then again try to remind me of what to do.;)
(However, at first I had the impression that the male helper was saying this to the female one. That would mean that they would have to do it. But they cannot do it without my help anyway, so it does not make a great difference to me).
08/Aug/2011 - The Blue-Skinned Monk
08/Aug/2011
The Blue-Skinned Monk
This morning I felt like I could get back to bed and have immediate exit. It just felt like the right bodily/mind condition. And I was right. I did affirmations for vibrations (which works for me quite well sometimes) and had several vibrations/exits with several (different?) people tugging at me while I was still blind (as usual), trying to help me out, scratching the soles of my foot, touching me on different spots, grabbing hands, etc. At one point I had enough and got out on my own. On other occasions I arrived at the portal (childhood bedroom). In one exit, I saw children standing there, but I don't know what they wanted.
One longer exit was the most memorable and I describe it here: my encounter with the blue-skinned Christian monk.
As usual, I am blind while helpers lift me out, it wasn't different this time. It is my self-proclaimed temporary practice goal to reach vision in this state (calling it now 'the vision practice'), and so I tried to do this with affirmations and concentration. First I saw again the hands holding me with only a kind of almost invisible and blurry outlines (which I described illustratively as the 'Predator combat mode' on my Johnny-Smith-experience post), then the visuals fully came on and I knew where I was, whom I was with and saw everything.
I must already have flewn outside the window of the portal because we were heading towards the end of the street. There is a turn right into the forest and we stop there. It was in plain daylight.
Already on the way there, I examined visually my new companion/guide. First let me mention that before (still in blind state in 'the astral bed') I remember being grabbed by the left hand first, only when I expected the right hand to be grabbed, too (like last time, see above!) it happened. This fact, as unremarkable or trivial as it might seem at first, makes perfect sense now to me if I compare it to the later visual input I got.
On my LEFT side, while we were flying to the end of the street, there was a little monk or priest. He was older (in his 50ies and 60ies) wore a robe (it might have been brown, but not sure). The colour of his skin was a (very) light blue. Around his neck, he wore a necklace with a little shimmering cross on it, silvery, still quite simple, two rectangular beams. Using google search, I found that it mostly resembles these two (however, it was all not golden but silvery):
http://thrifty-int.com/shops/images/8-350.jpghttp://www.catholicstore.com/images/products/6969lg.jpg
Now another interesting thing: I then looked on the RIGHT side to see who was holding my hand there. I saw the same guy! But not quite. It was a more translucent version, almost wraith-like, looking more dull, not looking at me, just focussing ahead of himself with almost closed eyes as it seemed - flying in an almost sleepy monotonous composure next to me.
I (not just intuitively but even rationally as reaction to the visuals received) turned to the LEFT 'twin version' again for conversation then. We had already halted at the driveway into the forest, when I asked the obvious question: 'Why is your skin light-blue?'.
He (LEFT guy) looked at me and answered sth which I cannot render completely and 100% exactly, so it is again a more paraphrased verson of what I'm sure of:
"It is the same as with women's tits. A tit, you know? It is like injected hormones. Compare it to that.'
Wow, a monk talking about 'tits'. He really said that. Tit. Not breast. :shock:
He then leads the way into the forest where there he enters and shows me a kind of huge box with an entrance to sth. It might also have been a building or an elevator, or a cage? I am not sure.
However, I was suspicious already (see below) and also have acquired in the astral the inner urge to fly into or (if I already am) stay in the light (especially if I once gained vision from exit blindness!). This 'box' or whatever it was seemed too dark for me. I apologised and said to him that I'd rather fly upwards into the lighted areas and just proceed on my own. He looked at me, not annoyed, maybe just a little disappointed. I looked at my hands to stay focussed and flew on. However, I don't remember what happened next, maybe I also woke up or got back into my 'bed' for another exit.
Comments / Afterthoughts
I am certain that this guy was indeed alone and had created a 'replica' of himself (possibly even by my 'request' / expectation) to hold me also on my right side. So he might indeed have been a helper with quite some 'abilities'. You know, I do affirmations similar to the Monroe/Gateway affirmation asking to only let individuals approach to me who are 1. more advanced than me and 2. are able and 3. are willing to help me. So I assume it was indeed an advanced guy. But what did he want? Was he from a BST? Speculations, as I might never find out.
Of course, due to his 'artificially created' looks (hormones??! turning from female to male or what?) and his used language (so contradictive to his 'professional attire') it all already smelled 'fishy' to me. Maybe I am doing him some injustice and he really awanted to help in his own way. Maybe I still need to learn to communicate and interpret things better to achieve efficient communication with these (advanced?) beings. Still, the 'darker' cage that he led me into then made me even more suspicious and was - so to speak - the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Regarding the cross: I am not a religious guy at all, so I do not know why he appeared this way to me. However, thinking back to the fields and 'the shepherd' (see post there), religious connotations and imagery were used for me before in order to convey trust, as it seems. Seeing (in this case Christian) symbology is however, nothing negative for me, either. If it's not neutral it is even more positive. If I saw e.g. angels or figures like Buddha, Jesus, etc I would immediately associate it with positive, higher-vibration beings and /or energy. As I am convinced of reincarnation, it might also have been that I was more given to religion in previous lives, so this is where it might stem from.
Re: 08/Aug/2011 - The Blue-Skinned Monk
I think you should consider that the cross predates Christianity and also that blue skinned beings are associated with Hinduism and even pop up in Ancient Egyptian mythology. A little research along these lines may yield insights.

Yes, but he also wore a monk's (or even priest's) robe. So ... well ... wait a minute ... could it be ... that he probably was a ...
http://www.blueimps.com/images/photo...monk_small.jpg:whatthe::mrgreen:
Jokes apart: Thanks for the hint about the ancient blue people race. Yes of course, I remember the many Hindu god illustrations, didn't think of that :banghead:. And blue is a very spiritual colour anyway.
I also saw sth about Atlantis recently on YT and there also was supposedly a 'blue race'. Interesting for sure, I am going to look at it more deeply.
But what could he have meant when he mentioned hormones? Seems like he said that he kind of 'pushed it'?
04/Sep/2011: I'm Tom Campbell / The 'Human Contact Zone'
04/Sep/2011
I'm Tom Campbell / The 'Human Contact Zone'
I get into the state with slight vibrations. I'm lying on the bed of a hotel room. I am Thomas Campbell, as usual as he is now these days, of calm and senior charisma with a white beard. I think (iirc) I have my clothes on. It is a big hotel building complex. The room is lighted. As usual, I am also a bit bi-located, which means I'm also still stretched out on the couch in my living room where I'm usually when trying to project.
A helper then comes "flown down" taking my hands. Well, the Blue Monk (as requested) does not turn up. But a nice girl. She is slightly familiar to me. It might have been the girl called Ludmilla, not sure though. She looks sweet.
She somehow (don't remember the transit, maybe we just 'phased') takes me to a place that is called the "Human Contact Zone". She explains to me (at least as I understand it) this is where people (human discarnates / spirits) can observe and also meet incarnated humans. But she explains it is also the other way round, so that incarnates can come here (which is logical to me since I was there now...) if they want to meet discarnates. Seems to be a meeting place (zone) of some kind.
The place, however, as I visualise it, seems a bit strange. It is a huge room with people walking around and looking through devices that resemble telescopes or periscopes (most of them on tables though).
The scene is short (lasting a few seconds only) and I quickly seem to be switched back (still as T.C.) to the start scene lying on the hotel room bed. I am looking out of the huge window into the night sky now. I close the shutters then (as if I want to go to sleep). I do not remember more of it.
Comments / Afterthoughts
Okay, the explanation of the first and most striking question that one might have is quite simple and straightforward (at first): I was watching a video of T.C., one of his talks, right before going to bed. We often dream of any impressions we have from the day before (even if it's only tv or youtube or whatever). As one can see by this 'identity assimilation / adoption' I was not entirely lucid, but as it contained 'projection elements' (vibrations, a helper helping me out) I put it here. I also wasn't entirely in dream state but still aware of 'my self' in some way, most of all since I was well aware of 'doing a projection now'.
But there's maybe more to it: as T.C. is also a skilled explorer of the non-physical it might be a chosen 'aspect' of mine metaphorically expressing my explorer attitude. So it was probably my "own TC in me" that was activated.:wink:
Why was I shown this place/zone in this very short trip? I don't know exactly as I did not request it. As I conneced this girl with the retriever-helpers already months ago, only the retrieval aspect comes to my mind here. Maybe the girl showed me a kind of 'base of operations' from which retrievals can be planned or begun/induced from their perspective. Maye these observation gadgets also hint to that. But this is mere conjecture now. Maybe it was just a meeting place after all.
Re: 04/Sep/2011: I'm Tom Campbell / The 'Human Contact Zone'
In your previous post, you were wondering whether you should trust or not the blue monk to help you with your projections (hence the link with Thomas Campbell, a seasoned projector). You even put the question in bold letters : ''What do you think (given the experience from above and my conclusions from it)?''
My guess would be that this girl brought you to this 'meeting place' or 'contact zone' as an answer to your question. As she explained, in this place, discarnated people (the blue monk) can come in contact with incarnated (you), but it also works the other way around. Perhaps she meant that you may get in touch with the blue monk and that you may get to know each others better before going any further. (Perhaps he knows a lot about you but what do you know about him? If you come to find that he is thrustworthy, you will be less likely to have doubts and your trust will make it easier for him to work with you... But trust builds over time, so a bit of patience may be needed here! ;))

I wouldn't call them dead at all, they seem pretty much alive 'up there'. :) Well, I should maybe have written "non-physical" instead, because this kind of discarnate-incarnate dichotomy is sometimes misleading. The notion of 'being watched' by non-physical beings when you are getting spiritually active (call it 'awakening' or 'evolving' or whatever) - including, of course, the very interested helpers - was what TC talked about also in this video. I looked it up and bookmarked it, it's here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQS0e6fXOCA#t=56m05s
So maybe this 'being watched (benevolently)' was this kind of message from the vid I just saw that also was re-inforced and conveyed to me here.

Yes this could very well be. Another trust-building measure, so to speak. A zone from where we are watched but where we also could go (if we learn how to do it) and meet up with trustworthy helpers.
Hey, nice that you're back, I hope you had a great vacation trip.:cool:

My first thought was that the blue monk wanted you to make some steps of your own towards him. After all, you called for him that night, but instead of him, someone else showed up to bring you to that contact zone as if to make you understand this.
…But it could also be as you say. The girl simply wanted to show you a place where you could meet up with (other?) thrustworthy helpers.
That being said, since you’ve been there once, chances are you should be able to go back. You now know how the place feels like. I think Kurt Leland mentionned that this feeling can be used as some kind of address or energy signature in the non-physical (hope I’m not distorting his words here), so perhaps you could try to focus on this ‘address’ to return there.
As I see it though, I don’t think you need to get there to initiate contact and/or build a relationship… I like the idea that we’re being watched over, as Korpo says (and the movie), and this is what your projection seems to show indeed. Everything we do and think may be monitored, so one can easily think of many means to reach and/or contact these benevolent watchers, even from the physical. After all,like she said, it also works the other way around, i.e. they can reach us from the non-physical but we can also reach them from the physical. For instance, simply sending thoughts to your helpers (and your higher self too) during meditation can do at first. Your thoughts will reach them. Weither you get feedback or not will then depend upon them and your ability to recognize feedback in the physical state, a skill that builts up too. You seem to already have an eye for this, so… :-)

24/Sep/2011: Borderland Research (1): Near-Wake Vibes & Audio-Livestream Transcription Errors
24/Sep/2011
Borderland Research (1): Near-Wake Vibes & Audio-Livestream Transcription Errors
I expect this to be an ongoing thing with more results coming in, so I see this as part one. My term "borderland research" can refer to two things: Primarily I refer to the range between waking state and trance state. But as this also has to do with the spectrum of dreams, hypnagogics or dream imaginery on the one side and lucid imagery / experiences (as simultaneous data flow from "the astral" as well as "the physical"!) on the other, one can view this as a secondary aspect of induced 'borderland' experience in the course of this experimentation. Since some degree of 'lucidity' is involved here I put this here instead of into my dream (programming project) threads, despite some of these experiences being also 'dreamed (=unlucid)' in a wider sense.
So... What am I doing? Well, first of all I do the same as before. I 'prime' myself for projection with 2-3 hours of sleep (varying), then get up from my bed and lay down on my 'projection couch' in the most uncomfortable position (for me!) - lying on my back with arms to the side (also called 'soldier' or even 'corpse' pose).
So far so already known, what's new is that I introduced now audio streams again. I use some monotonous lucid-dreaming sounds but I mixed them with a (low voice) personal affirmation repeated every 5-or-so seconds. These affirmations repeatedly produce now the first phenomenon which I talk about here and came to label as "audiostream transcription distortion".
Audio-Livestream Transcription Errors
This isn't actually sth new as it happened before when I used audio affirmations at night (mainly during my first year of practice, 2009-2010), I just never bothered to report on it so far. But since I use now the affirmations audio stream for some days, it repeats itself over and over again. Therefore I believe that (according to a personal 'semi-scientific' principle) this kind of almost controlled replication of a phenomenon is worth a mention now. Maybe some of you experienced similar things, too.
Perhaps, some of you might also already have read my most recent experience with an 'awakener' when a dream figure (or more) referred to an 'outside' sound from the physical, which was my lucid dreaming audios stream (still without the affirmations over it though).
http://www.astraldynamics.com.au/sho...239#post103239
This is a similar thing now, just with the added affirmations, plus it happens in dream and (semi-)lucid state.
Here are two examples:
In a dream some days ago, I am driving with a buddy of mine as a pillion passenger behind him on his motorcycle. He repeats the affirmation to me that is simultaneously playing in physical life in my bedroom. However, he 'mimicks' it simultaneously but uses different words completely, the meaning of which got lost for me (not remembered). This is what I refer to as 'audio-livestream transcription error'. The fact that I know and "hear" the affirmation although the words are changed is a lucid element - the fact that I instantly KNOW (while dreaming) that the words my buddy uses are NOT the correct ones even more!
The same tonight: I am experiencing dream imagery and am "hearing" the affirmation. But it is a different wording again. The rhythm is the same, but the accentuation is different. Thus I 'hear' another word.
And again: I am LUCID enough to KNOW that 1) this is the audiostream from the physical, and 2) this still cannot be right as the words are different. In the dream still I try to get the correction but I do not manage to do so. Then I get almost to the surface of near-awakeness and I put the right affirmation in (means: I hear the live stream), take it "with me" and 'delve down' deeper again into trance state again. I keep playing with it. Sometimes loosing the right wording and 'hearing' the wrong words again or even switching to and fro, still in a kind of trance-like, semi-lucid, hypnagogic or even dreamy state.
Of course, somehow this all is a failure since my objective for using the affirmation audio stream at night is to get lucid and / or induce exit, which did not (yet!) quite work. Still, it is a kind of interesting research for me.
The second phenomenon happened already to me a few months ago for the first time, which I did not mention here. Tonight it happened again like described below. I believe, it also has to do with this semi-lucid, near-wake state that is caused by the audiostream/affirmations:
Near-Wake Vibes
At one point I manage to induce (and partly control) vibrations. But something is different. My heart beats fast which is not the case when I'm normally in 'the state'. I also do not experience any kind of (physical or emotional) stress symptoms then but am completely trance-relaxed.
Not so this time! I feel the vibes but I also feel my heart beating faster and my body getting strained, as if 'giving birth' to vibrations under pressure. There is definitely a correlation. When I 'turn up' the vibes it also increases my heart beat. It seems like I kind of am 'cramping' it out (for lack of better expressions from a non-native speaker, but I hope you get the meaning).
Secondly, I do not manage to make an exit when I try to. I then try to roll out. But this time (and not as a false awakening!) I actually really roll my physical body only. I look at my hands then to do a reality check, I am really awake, the (forceful) vibrations gone.
Maybe I was already too near to the complete waking state so that no exit "into the astral" was possible anymore. Still, I experienced the vibrations the way as they always were, just accompanied by physical body symptoms of a less desirable kind.
Comments / Afterthoughts
Enough has been said to both phenomena above. Just let me repeat that I hope to learn more from this kind of interesting experments. Maybe it really helps me to learn to control ways of induction more when 'playing with(in)' and 'moving inside' these in-between states, which I hope will also lead to better and increased number of exits, in the long run.

Failure is a strong wrong that I wouldn’t use here… After all, you did observed results, and you were actually led on very interesting trails through these results…;)
Among other things, your experiments seem to point out that while our consciousness may be mainly focused in the dream state, it may also be aware of what is going on in another level of focus, i.e. the physical in these cases. Why so? Is it because counsciousness is always operating at all levels at the same time? Or is consciousness actually `plural` and each energy body a part of cousciouness focusing at a specific level only? Is it both… Or completely something else? What could explain `distortions` such as these you noticed then? How is an information `communicated` from one level of consciousness to another? Is there even such kind of communication?
That being said, this interesting passage of your post caught my attention :
Quote:
(...) Then I get almost to the surface of near-awakeness and I put the right affirmation in (means: I hear the live stream), take it "with me" and 'delve down' deeper again into trance state again. I keep playing with it. Sometimes loosing the right wording and 'hearing' the wrong words again or even switching to and fro, still in a kind of trance-like, semi-lucid, hypnagogic or even dreamy state.
Some say that information may be passed on from a higher energy body to the one `below`, then to the one `below`, until the information reaches the counscious mind (physical). However, as the information is passed on from one body to another, it is translated into the language of the lather body. And a translation always implies a more or less important loss or transformation of the original message, depending on how foreign or similar these different languages are. It seems like your experience shows that the same phenomenon happens from the other way around as well. An input from the physical (your affirmation) is taken almost as it is into what could be the etheric body (the `near-awakeness` state you describe), but as you dive deeper, and perhaps transfer your main focus into the next body (astral), you lose little by little your hold on the original wording as it is translated into a language more fit for the astral body.
Perhaps this is what also happened here :
Quote:

As your counsciousness is mainly focused in the dream body, the original wording (or the original package of the information, or camouflage perhaps, in Seth’s terms) was translated into the language of the dream body. Indeed, this other character with you ``mimicks`` it. The words no longer stick with the original affirmation because they were only the package containing the information (which is energy) in the physical. But if I followed you well, his ``mimicks`` were still conveying the original information (energy) behind your words.
Further experiments may show if indeed such a translation process is involved, and if so, how it works, but also what is lucidity, and how both work together. For instance, does a high degree of lucidity means a more litteral translation (therefore less `transformation`) of the original words (or package/camouflage)? How much `input` from the physical can be actually picked on as we sleep and taken into this in-between state (etheric?) or/and into the dream state?
Could be very interesting ;)

Yes, indeed interesting, thanks for the interesting points with regard to the different bodies and interactions, I hadn't so far thought of different bodies I might have been in. It is an interesting idea that each "body" might have its own consciousness level where translation / transmission must occur between them in order to bridge the (level/dimension/focus/frequency?) gaps and manage to get an effective (instant?) up-down or bottom-up communication.
What's also relevant here is that in the physical we have "sound" and it might not "translate" itself on the other levels the way we are accustomed to it in the physical. I remember (and still wonder about) the communication channel that Gálaca/Ludmilla used (3-4 times) with me when we "were" holding hands in the non-physical (etheric? astral?) and she was "using" normal sound which I literally "physically" heard in my ears. How did she do that? Meanwhile, as I have seen her and know how she looks like, we also communicated by telephatic "voice" (like you do in dreams, too)- which might be the normal medium (lingua franca) in the non-physical. Still it is interesting to note that whenever I was still "exit blinded" they were using it when it seemed that I expected it (but only then!! - as can be read by my "holding-hands-exercises" with the helpers, I assume mostly with Gálaca or The Monk)- which seems to indicate to me that I also had a kind of "in-between-state" then between the physical (with auditory input) and non-physical (without visual input). How did they do it, however, so I wonder, as they are not physical and do not posess mouths and vocal chords? Maybe, since sound is vibration of air 'translated' to parts in the inner ear, they kind of modulated my inner ear (or even brain) to make me "hear" it? Just some weird ideas now, but still: it all has to do with communication channels, broadcasting, senses and translatiatory issues.
Very interesting stuff indeed.
25/Sep/2011: How Is Andy Baker Doing? / Purpose-Focussed Lucidity
25/Sep/2011
How Is Andy Baker Doing? / Purpose-Focussed Lucidity
The analogy with regard to the semantical syntax of the first part of the heading already insinuates it: This has to do with reality bending and possible telepathic contact with another "lost friend" again. Actually I remember this one more as a (semi-lucid) dream instead of a lucidventure. However, I put it here as a promissory measure, as I have a strong feeling it might become sth similar as with Johnny Smith in future. Some of my actions in this dream also reveal a high lucidity with regard to my current professional (job change) situation. This makes me now coin another term (more on it below): AGENDA/PURPOSE-FOCUSSED LUCIDITY.
In the "dream", I am in the living room of my sister, which used to be the bedroom of my parents in my childhood, and it is next to my portal room where I often projected into in the past. My sister is giving a party and I do not know anyone of her friends. Then I see another known face. It is Andy Baker [again: not his real name!], another friend from my childhood/youth days.
Some important background again before I go on with the dream: I haven't seen him for years. But I thought about him recently quite often. The reason is simple: I know he is a medical doctor nowadays and has a shared practice (not too far from my current hometown, btw) with another doctor. He has a website (finding it wasn't too easy, since he - as a nice coincidence to "Johnny Smith"- also has a John-Doe-name and cannot be googled, but I knew the location of his practice). So the reason I thought of him (especially when I am in my childhood hometown where we passed our youth) is that I am in training to become an alternative medicine practicioner. He is a "normal" conventional medical doctor but also open to alternative therapies (as I know from his website and from memory) as he does homeopathy and acupuncture, too. Of course, and I admit to some selfishness here, I would like to meet him not solely for the purpose of meeting an old good friend (that too, of course!). I think it is good in my situation to have another friend with a longer-standing expertise in the medical professional field and that he might be able to help me in one way or another later on or during my training. I even did some LoA-wise affirmations and visualisations that I am about to meet him soon (next year would be enough) although so far I did not affirmations to meet him in the non-physical. This is what maybe happened now. Let's go on with the "dream" now:
I first did not even notice him although he sits next to me on a bed or couch. Then he sort of intervenes in a talk I have with another guy there. I say: "Hey, Andy, I haven't even noticed you until now. How are you?". So we go on talking. Later we are sitting at a table with some people leaving and joining us constantly.
What strikes me already in the dream is his excessive party behaviour. He drinks a lot of alcohol (a dark beer). And (even more striking) he seems to try to flirt with some of the women present. He even exchanges telephone numbers for dates with them.
My bewilderment might be understandable when I mention that I know him as an (almost fundamental) Christian from his youth rather than a party-goer and womanizer. Moreover, he is - according to his website - married with two children now. (However, we both in the dream were - as it is almost custom in the non-physical - in our mid-20ies).
Then I ask him what I need to ask (with my own 'selfish' motive in the back of my mind). About his job and his practice. He tells me that he has problems with his colleague. There is some disagreement with his colleague about their matched vacation schedules (so one has to take over the patients of the other one), which somehow annoys him. But when I then ask about his patients and if he has enough and if the practice is going well, he says yes, all is fine.
He then says he is about to leave now again. I do not talk about my training but I assume he knows about it and of course we agree to meet again soon. I ask him about his phone number, he says that it is still the same, the old one I should have. I tell him that I still have it as it sticks as a slip of paper on a kind of old cork board with addresses at home.
Before he leaves I also tell him about this celebration that my sister gives and says that it is not exactly on her birthday today, as we already are at a later date now. I think for a short while and then say the date of what I considered "today": February 21st.
Comments / Afterthoughts
So the question is if I will really meet him in physical life now. According to this dream and the Law of Attraction and after my convincing "Johnny-Smith-Experience" already, I am certain that it will happen next year. I doubt (as so far announcements with dates did not work for me) that it will be next year on Feb 21st, but maybe in February or around it. I will meet him at the right time in the right place - and it will be helpful for me. Of this I am certain now. LoA is a pretty cool thing. :-)
Also, compared to my lucidventure with "Johnny Smith" on 18 June (and its "sequel" on 6th July) there is another interesting parallel. The room of the party was exactly the same I flew out of when going on the search for Johnny Smith. (quote from below: "I am in the neigbouring room of my portal, which used to be the bedroom of my parents when I was a small child."). Maybe it's coincidence, maybe not and it's a pattern.
I wonder if the current trouble with his colleague is right. However, one fact does not match with physical life: According to the website, his colleague is a woman and not a man as it was given to me in the dream.
Some thoughts on "AGENDA/PURPOSE-FOCUSSED LUCIDITY":
I did not realise I am in a dream. Still, what strikes me is the display of straight purposefulness and relevance for my physical life agenda of my questions and behaviour towards him. This 100% decidedness and It makes a strong case for my development of this kind of lucidity. Isn't it amazing how we can be so completely focussed on physical life goals and agendas - and this even in normal dreams, despite the lack of lucidity (knowing that one is dreaming)?
It also seems I invited him to this "party" in the first place (of my sister with whom he does have no relation to in physical life, he does not even know her). I did not mention it in the text but he also sometimes gave the impression of being a guest only "passing through" as if he was invited to a party where he normally does not belong to or would not have wanted to go to, but could not reject the request of an old friend (in this case: me).
Maybe, if it really was a dream aspect of his multidimensional self and not just my projection of him, his time pressure and the casualness and flippancy of his short appearance shows that he would not have been here normally - due to other more usual 'dream matters' he might have had to follow. So I am possibly an 'intruder' into his 'normal' dream world somehow. However, he maybe "accepted" it like any of us would accept a party invitation from old friends, perhaps out of courtesy, although you might not really want to got here or think you have other/better things to do on that date. (That does not mean that he was slack or disinterested, in the dream he was the nice and pleasant guy to converse and have fun with as he always used to be!)
I am looking forward to meeting him next year now, as well as to "October/November" as I was promised in a dream some interesting development for my job (and life) change aspirations, too.
(ps oops sorry, just noted this post got much longer as it was planned to be)

08/Oct/2011: The Affirmation
08/Oct/2011
The Affirmation
This night I first get vibrations once and try a roll-out but I fail and notice that I 'rolled myself awake'. This first failed attempt maybe attracts my helpers again. After an hour or so in sleep again I get into trance and manage to do multiple exits with helpers again hauling me out one time after another (maybe 3-5), mostly grabbing me - as usual - by my hands and arms.
The whole time, however, I experience exit blindness again. Anyway, mindsight or willing imagination tells me I seem to be in "Portal Alpha" (childhood room) again. "Portal Beta" is what I now came to call the "Tom Campbell Suit(e)" (... mind the nice wordplay :)) from which I accessed the HCZ then ("Human Contact Zone" see post 04/Sept/2011).
Despite lack of vision (again :x) I am otherwise very lucid as the presence of mind regarding my set goals shows. After the first was accomplished (while the helpers, one to the left, one to the right were still holding me) with doing a kind of intended Law-Of-Attraction-Affirmation for my physical life, I tried two other ones: To reach the HCZ again (via Portal Beta), which does not work. Then I try to get vision doing affirmations: No success either. After another return and exit I still see a darkened room but I detect the hazy shades of the window of Portal Alpha where I usually exited into "the Astral". I try fly towards it in order to get out but am slowing down and before I make it I get back to body / awake again.
One image is transmitted to me in-between: My own eyeglasses dangling from what seems to be an outside telephone or power/utility pole. They are rendered in over-size because they are almost as big as the entire huge telephone pole.
Comments / Afterthoughts
The eyeglasses may refer to the missing visuals again. If it was a telephone pole it might also refer to communication. In case it was an electricity pylon - well, I don't know, maybe the same.
It is of course a bit frustrating to still experience blindness and not even gaining it after my affirmation-attempts (which worked well on other occasions before). No progress made this time, same old drag, I'm almost a bit bored now with exit blindness and the whole bag of being-hauled-out-into-the-dark-room-experiences. http://www.astraldynamics.com.au/ima...on_neutral.gif
Well, okay ... on the other hand I spoke the LoA affirmation in the Astral, which is what I really wanted, so the primary goal was accomplished and it was a success in this regard. Maybe vision would even have 'distracted' me from it. Looking at it from this angle it makes even sense to 'do without' vision. Hence the picture of the 'suspended' glasses for the sake of better verbal (tele-)communication (symbolized by the pole)???
On a more philosophical side note: Reading all this again, I still need to remind myself sometimes of how unusual my experiences are. 99+% of the "normal" population would be shocked or disturbed and think they were going completely nuts now when they experienced entities dragging them out of body at night. Or probably they would think that I am nuts when I told them about this and told them that I even 'ask for it' since it is a cooperative thing.
Hence it is interesting to note how life perspectives and the notion of 'normality' change when you deal with metaphysics 'actively' by routine practice. Moreover, there is a sweet irony in it (as you might already know that I always try to find a humorous note in my experiences) when I judge this episode now even as 'boring' while the majority of the population would be scared to death by it.
(ps: regarding the post before this one: I met Andy again in a dream, we were together on a congress with lectures etc. (possibly about health topics) and then went as a recreational activity with some other guys into a gymn to play basketball.)

Comments / Afterthoughts
Okay, the explanation of the first and most striking question that one might have is quite simple and straightforward (at first): I was watching a video of T.C., one of his talks, right before going to bed. We often dream of any impressions we have from the day before (even if it's only tv or youtube or whatever). As one can see by this 'identity assimilation / adoption' I was not entirely lucid, but as it contained 'projection elements' (vibrations, a helper helping me out) I put it here. I also wasn't entirely in dream state but still aware of 'my self' in some way, most of all since I was well aware of 'doing a projection now'.
But there's maybe more to it: as T.C. is also a skilled explorer of the non-physical it might be a chosen 'aspect' of mine metaphorically expressing my explorer attitude. So it was probably my "own TC in me" that was activated.
Why was I shown this place/zone in this very short trip? I don't know exactly as I did not request it. As I conneced this girl with the retriever-helpers already months ago, only the retrieval aspect comes to my mind here. Maybe the girl showed me a kind of 'base of operations' from which retrievals can be planned or begun/induced from their perspective. Maye these observation gadgets also hint to that. But this is mere conjecture now. Maybe it was just a meeting place after all.
Just a short note on this one. As this one really keeps fascinating, intriguing but also dumbfounding me til today I now went on Tom's forum and will try to contact him (pm-wise) and ask his opinion about it. Maybe he even knows about a "Human Contact Zone" and there is more to it?
28/Oct/2011: The Light Switch
28/Oct/2011
The Light Switch
As I am on a dry period, this is just a dream-state experience again, but I need to put it in here as in a funny way it's heavily related to my most usual "exit mode".
This exit mode happens when I am phasing/jumping into "Portal 1" - which I regularly do, and I assume with ca. 50% of it in initial exit blindness (e.g. see Oct 8th and many before, alone or with "Ludmilla" aka "Gálaca" or other (one or two) helpers), still I know it to be "Portal 1" by 'mind-sensing'.
This one is a funny example that shows how in subconscious dream state I can counteract my own conscious intentions (affirmations, plans) which I define and decide on in wake/lucid state. Before going to bed one of my affirmation was to reach the portal and that the lights are always on - as a precaution against exit-blindness :cool:.
This is what happened: In dream state, I get 'awake' in bed in my "Portal 1" (just a reminder to non-subscribers of my log;): That's my childhood bedroom in my childhood home). I have this often in dream state and I would tend to call it a "False False Awakening" as I often do not get lucid at all and it is not an "RTZ"-OBE-Awakening (means: your present bedroom).
I see the lights are on and they disturb me as I am tired and want to go on sleeping. So I get up in order turn the lights off. The switch, however, is not where it usually is: It is in the middle of the room, dangling from a cable attached to the ceiling in mid-air. I take it and turn the knob. No reaction, it does not work, the lights stay on. I try again and again. No result.
Then I hear a voice from the corridor (door remains shut). It might be my mother talking to s.o. else: "Look, now he is cheating again."
My memory got lost what happens after that exactly. Maybe finally it worked and I switched off the lights and went 'back to sleep' again. :|
Comments / Afterthoughts
Really interesting: I tried a precautionary measure in conscious state, and it actually worked but then my sub-conscious mind sabotages it? And so we always have to fight our subconscious motives or mind in dreams when we try to get lucid?
Two more interesting things related to this "theme" is: the 'exhibited' and 'centralised' nature of the light switch and the voice of my mother.
Maybe the first aspect really indicates that it was the 'central' theme of the experience? But what or how to learn from it now?
As described above (FFE), often I 'wake up in dreams' in (a) bed and think that I am awake but am in entirely strange environments (e.g. I remember that once I even was in a park). Still, despite the strange enviroments and situations, you do not get lucid enough and your sole motive is to carry on with your sub-consicous 'programming' that you are in bed and just "need sleep".
This is hilariously funny if we think about it. It also reveals the inner struggle between the conscious and sub/un-conscious mind('s programming).
The voice of my mother could be the voice of my (higher?) conscious mind created symbolically in the situation given in order to remind me of my own 'cheating'. Actually, I cheat my"self". The cheat would then be the betrayal of myself and my conscious intentions by the indulgent yielding to the subconscious mind (that prefers all the time to get back living through and processing experiences in a deep unconscious sleep state).
So far, I am losing the battle against this "COUNTER-AGENDA SUBCONSCIOUS DRIVE" almost every night. But I have not given up hope that one day I might win one again.
29/Oct/2011 - Helper Training / Build-Up?
Again! A dream in line with the development described above (being forced, often, as in this case, by an "Awakener", to get up from a 'dream bed'). After the dream I awoke in the PP and meditated for half an hour (to binaurals), tried to "speak to" my subcon (call it "Subbie my buddy" now) to coax it into granting me 10 minutes of lucidity every night. Then two exits and lucidventures followed, both can be subsumed under the heading "Helper Training / Build-Up?".
29/Oct/2011
Mattress Check (Dreamstate)
I get awakened in an appartment that I had as a student by my then landlord. He apologises and tells me that he just quickly needs to take the mattress to 'tag' it. I get up and then he uses a kind of pinch tool or tacker / stapler device to put a label on it on its bottom side.
29/Oct/2011
The Underground Plant (Lucid)
I get lucid in the state and just use the 'get-up-method' to rise from bed (no helpers involved this time, as planned and also been told in a dream to try things alone). First I seem to be stuck with my left foot or leg in my physical body. I drag it and then am completely free. I had no or only slight vibrations, I just got up from bed - how profane a method, huh?
It is dark, it could be RTZ and my PP room, but I am not sure. I look at my hands and ask for 'clarity now' or similar commands. I see then my hands but it is still hazy and dark.
I fly through a wall and am in a kind of (still dark) high silo, hovering in mid-air. I ask to be taken to a higher level and put (as usual) my arms above my head in superman-style. It does not work - as usual. I then fly through another wall and am in a kind of subway corridor. There is a more lighted area ahead and I walk into it. It is a greater underground factory.
I see three workers on machines. One, with a moustache who also appears to be the foreman, sees me and I decide to speak to him. I remember one of my purposes and ask if s.o. called for (my) help or needs my help. The forman (standing behind a kind of desk) answers which I unfortunately do not remember correctly, there are 2 versions possible - almost diametrically opposite in meaning: Either he says: " We get calls for help sometimes ourselves." or he says „We do calls for help sometimes ourselves". I then see my woolen thin cap lying on the muddy plant floor next to his desk. At the next instant he holds it and then hands it over to me again. Unfortunately, before I can get more clarification, I fade out with my usual REES (Re-Entry Electrical Sensations) before and after re-integration.
29/Oct/2011
Elderly Lady In Mountain Resort's Palace/Castle Hotel (Lucid)
I roll out again without vibrations. First some skepticism as to if I am really out or just got up with my physical body. Then I feel lighter and know I am out. It is dark again, a corridor again. This time, I speak the affirmations for my physical life several times (as planned before!) and am happy about having remembered to do so.
Then I try to fly up which seems to work this time but only to be in another dark corridor first. Then again I see a light area and walk (or fly) towards it. I enter a kind of restaurant or café. It looks like a resort on a mountain as I can see by a look out of the huge windows with a view to a beautiful valley. I decide to fly through a wall next to a window to get outside. I come to rest on a kind of balcony. The whole complex (where the restaurant was in) looks now like a castle or palace in the mountains to me. Beautiful view on a sunny day down into the wide valley with mountains surrounding half of it but there is also an opening to the sea with what looks like a sea port. There is a monument with a golden sculpture (could be a bird but it is too far away to make out). Then I see a really large animal (looks like a Mammoth but without tusks) walking along the coastline, still it looks peaceful.
Then a little shock (but not really as I do not feel fear - I am now almost beyond fear in dreams and projections as it seems!) as a piece of the balcony seems to break away and falls down along the steep and deep hillside. I can jump to another edge or balcony protusion. I first considered taking a flight above this beautiful landscape, but I decide to go now inside again as I remembered my "helper goal" again.
Inside I am in an elegant coffee table room and just ask "where can I help s.o. now?". I then hear a voice, female and a bit aged: "Sisteeeer!, Sisteeer!". (Note: as in English and many other languages, in German the title or adress "Sister" can signify a 'female nurse' or a even a nun).
I start to run into the direction where the voice comes from. I run through several elegantly furnished rooms with high ceilings and lots of space (it all looks like the rooms of a vast luxurious castle or a 5-star palace hotel in a vacation resort to me).
Then I reach the room where the caller is. It is a long table and an elderly woman is sitting at a table looking at me as I come in running and so stop before her. Then another funny scene: she gazes at me with a little scrutinizing air and says nothing but she seems to wait for me to open the conversation or act in some way (serve coffee maybe?). I then look down at me (due to here strange mustering of me) and pull up my loose trousers again up my hip. It is not that they were pulled down so that I would have stood before her in pants, just a little too loose around the waist. This is so in physical reality indeed, as there I usuall wear old black trackies at home (yeah, I like being a real slacker at home, who doesn't?).
Unfortunately, this lucidventure ends as the one before: Before I can ask the lady how to help her I fade out of the scene with REES again and wake up.
Comments / Afterthoughts
The first dream is promising as the throwing-out-of-bed by an "Awakener" happens often to me and I understand it to be a signal to my subconscious (Subbie!) that a lucidventure is ahead now. I do not get lucid immediately then, so it is just a kind of 'information sign'. The coaxing might work.
Were the workers somehow connected to the Human Contact Zone where I recently was? I cannot tell exactly as I did not get the sentence right and could not clarify. I need to prolong my lucidventures in order to lead better and longer conversations.
The old lady needed help for sure, but what kind of help? Was she calling for a nun, nurse or indeed a sibling? I would have liked to find out all of this. Same problem as mentioned above: Not enough "time". At least, it seems that in the second lucidventure I finally managed to get to a (literally!) higher and light-filled Astral level again.

This is hilariously funny if we think about it. It also reveals the inner struggle between the conscious and sub/un-conscious mind('s programming).
The underlying assumption is quite simple, once verbalized: You assume that, when you're conscious, you're awake, and vice versa. If you become conscious during your dreaming - actually already a low level of lucidity along the "Leland Scale" - your assumption translates "conscious" to "awake", which is for your mind the same thing. Then you act upon the reality you experience - "I am awake when I should get my night's sleep" and proceed accordingly.
One way to transform this conditioning is for example to be more conscious about your use of words. As words and concepts define and limit the experience of the mind and also the mental body, every time you're thinking from the mental body level you're prone to these limiting effects. By making the conscious effort to get your terminology right you start a process of easing up the concepts in your mind as well.
One common thing people do is calling physical reality "waking reality." If you use terms like that you program your mind to equate "waking = physical" and this results in the mind going on auto-pilot whenever it perceives itself as awake but is no more lucid than that. It's better to call it "physical reality" as it does imply that it is one reality of many (and diminishes the mind's tendency to dismiss experiences in other planes but the physical as unreal) and that it is indeed not the only plane associated with the waking state - as one can be conscious in many realities.
While such effort by itself does not produce lucidity it can help eliminating limiting beliefs and maybe foster a greater frequency of experiences commonly considered as lucid. Also, by using concepts consciously you drag them from a perceived state of unconsciousness to where they are perceived as more pliable.

03/Nov/2011: The Puncture (Vision For Humanity)
03/Nov/2011
The Puncture (Vision For Humanity)
In the state, I get lucid several times or even kind of 'phase' into the scenery. I do so with heavy REES (Re-Entry Electrical Sensations), but no vibrations. There is also no exit remembered by me, it was always a 'fast switch' or teleporting into the scenery.
The first lucidventure only deserves a short mention. I was in a city asking people where I was. I could even phase back there a 2nd time shortly after I snapped back into my bed / physical body again. People there told me this place was called "Ceska Venec(i)a" (or similar). Well, 'ceska' means Czech (in Czech) and Venec(i)a could mean Venice. I found out that there is indeed a district in Prague that is called "Venice Of Prague", but I do not recognise it from the pictures and have no other clues, which makes it all inconclusive to me.
Then another 'phasing' occurred and it is an amazing experience for me. I would even go so far and daringly call it a "Vision" for Humanity now. And believe me, I thought all day long about it at work and could hardly concentrate on my job. Here is what happened:
I phase into the scene from another experience or dream and find myself standing outside on a wide field. I'm standing on a little elevation and have a good overview of the landscape. It looks beautiful, like in a painting. The landscape is idyllic, pastures interspersed with bushes, some small lanes, gates and trees.
Almost even before the visuals set in, another guy next to me stated talking in an analytical but also a little sullen (or disappointed?) tone. I can only paraphrase what he was saying:
"Humanity still lags so much behind in its development. It has not even reached 60 points of its potential on a scale of 700-800."
I have not time to think a lot about his statement as I am again distracted by the scenery and scene unfolding.
I see a ray of light shining through the white clouds above in a light beam and forming a spotlight on the meadow below. It really haunts me since it is, unlike the rest of the scenery, not really natural. The circle of light formed on the ground is several metres in diameter.
I immediately decide to ask this 'wise' guy about the phenomenon as I consider him to know more about it. So I look at him the first time, asking „What is this?“ pointing at the light beam from the sky. The guy looks at me and answers:
"It is called 'The Puncture'."
Suddenly, I see more of these rays from above appearing in the landscape and then I even see people stepping into these circles of light.
There is no further conversation with anyone, but I later join one of these groups squatting down in one of the spots of light. All is shining bright, warm and peacefully. Then I look up to the sky and see the ray disappearing in an opening in the clouds. Then I spot a huge machine or even (alien?) spaceship flying out of / above the clouds. It does not look menacing in any way. Possibly it is the source of this 'emanation', maybe it even kind of "seeds" these light beams all over the landscape?
The experience ends then and I wake up (with REES again).
Comments / Afterthoughts
If it wasn't for this strange guy's words, I would have interpreted the scene quite differently. Probably something about healing or the human craving for a 'place in the sun'. But this guy - whom I do not really consider a guide, rather a knowing guy commenting on the scenery for me (or even my Higher Self?) - really gives my interpretation the decisive twist.
I first thought about how to translate the expression. After some consideration I decided indeed on the most literal alternative. The original German word used was indeed "Punktur", a word that as such does not really exist in common German usage at all. It gets clearer however (as in English) when we remember its use in Akupunktur (acupuncture). I know that 'puncture' (alone) means "flat tyre" in English, too, but we must bear in mind that we need to distinguish between the cause (puncture = stabbing, prick, insertion, trepan) and the effect (dysfunctional tyre).
So in this context "Punktur" / puncture for me generally signifies the setting (seeding?) of dots / points / patches / spots across a surface (here: landscape). Metaphorically, however, there is much more to it, especially with regard to the people entering the spots and the guy's words about Humanity.
My interpretation: It's indeed about the purported consciousness shift which is supposedly taking place now. The metaphor shown to me is that it takes place gradually, step by step (spot by spot?), rather than in a big (2012-)bang cataclysmic event or a few days of cosmic-spiritual radiation or whatever else.
It is 'seeded' (if with alien help from above or not remains highly debatable) not geographically as shown in the metaphor, but rather among groups of spiritually awakening people, networks that become real patchworks as they grow in size and gain momentum more and more. So the circles of light 'reflecting' these groups (symbolically) grow in number and size themselves until one day it reaches the 'critical mass' to make the 'shift' visible and palpable all over the landscape of Humanity/Earth.
Or let's directly use the acupuncture analogy: these light spots of people (spiritually activated) are like the acupuncture points on a body that get activated. It's done by the seeding (setting of the 'light beam needles' from above). Then, later the meridians get connected, even later the meridians themselves interconnect amongst eachother, so that the enlightenment-Chi can finally flow coherently through a matrix of the whole 'body' of Gaia/Humanity - and the shift is done. The Puncture = The Shift in action.
:party:
Another interpretation could be that there is rather a kind of mass ascension taking place among the 'ascencion-ready' people in the ("en")lighted spots, waiting to be lifted/"beamed" up (to the space ships?). Probably an analogy to this esoteric ascencion myth might be found in Christian bible fundamentalism's "Rapture"? However, this is not the way I understand it at all and I feel that it was not conveyed to me in this way. The people were eager to stay "grounded" (though spiritually lifted) and make the Earth change happen by stepping into the ever-growing light spots from 'the heavens'.
Personally, of course, I also liked this 'Vision' as I joined a circle of 'people in the light' myself. :angelic:
Whatever it meant, all in all, it was a truly amazing experience.
And beautiful.
Really, really beautiful.
