    Carrots for Drumsticks

    19.9.10

    At some time during the night I become lucid but I don't really recall what I do because, immediately afterwards, I sleep very heavily. I do feel there was possibly a lengthy conversation with a wise energy I perceived as male. I suspect there was a lesson in self-healing because I was on the brink of a migraine and I had set an intention to use the lucid- dreaming state to investigate the possibility of bringing about wellness. Last week our Year 11 students had their exams and I'd done (and am still to do) a large pile of marking which had wreaked havoc with my neck and eyes. Anyway, I did wake without a headache and sick stomach this morning. This may have been due to the extra rest I took yesterday, of course.

    My second bout of lucidity came when I found myself in an unfamiliar suburb. I could hear a band and I followed the music. It had been my intention to go along with whatever the dream presented rather than to attempt control of the environment. I found a scruffy old guy playing drums with carrots for drumsticks. He left it to me, so I picked up the carrots. They were limp and when I began to drum with them they were too quiet. There was another pair of carrots there too but I soon found myself in the blackness behind my eyes contemplating the dream and trying to recall what I had done during the earlier phase of lucidity.

    While I'm lying in bed I realise that I'm in the passenger seat of a car, moving forward through the same suburban streets of the earlier dream. I guess this is my first experience of phasing.

    Eventually my dream awareness deteriorates and I'm surrounded by a small group of people whom I am telling about my previous experiences of lucidity during the night, especially the forgotten episode, which is clearly playing on my mind.

    Hello, Beek.

    the drum Austral informal the necessary information (esp in the phrase give (someone) the drum
    (from: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/drum)

    So, what could that essential information have been? Eat the freshest (not limp) of carrots, maybe?

    Cheers,
    Oliver

    I didn't think to analyse it, really. I had an intention to make carrot cake in the morning because our friend was coming to help us move some heavy furniture. (The carrots were fresh). I figured it was just what was there in my subconscious.

    I did find myself reading about shamanic drumming today but since my eldest was drumming yesterday, I doubt there was any synchronicity involved.

    Last year I meditated on foods that I should eat more and carrot popped up. As it happens, I have some in the oven right now with chicken and potatoes.
