Off balance and blind
Topic: Lucid Dreams
Came home from work today and took a nap.  Man I had some weird dreams.  The only one I can remember really well was that me and Lisa and the kids went to some hospital to visit someone (sorry Lisa, I know you hate when I dream about you! lol) Well we went to the hospital and I kept falling off balance, landing right on my ass, I couldn't stay standing up and kept falling over.  This nurse came over and told me to go sit down and asked if I wanted some help and I told her no.  So I sat down and this guy grabbed my arm, I stood up and and was telling him to get his hand off me then I noticed it was the nurse trying to keep me from falling over again, everytime I would stand up I would fall over.  She started talking to me and I told her I was having problems seeing too, that it was like everything would go black like I'm blind or something and that would last for a little bit and I asked her if she ever heard of that.  (This is the second dream in a month that I've had about falling over, being off balance, and the black screen blindness has always been a common thing in my dreams, where I am dreaming that I am blind).  Ok, then the dream sort of switched and I went looking for Lisa and the kids and went up the elevator.  I saw Lisa and Mason, but Eddie was taking off...he jumped in the elevator and I couldn't catch him.  So I'm running trying to catch him and then the dream switches into some outdoor pavilion.  We're at some outdoor pavilion and I have this camcorder.  Eddie was playing with it and it had a cell  phone walkie talkie feature to it, I"m like "what the hell?" so I start messing with it because he's talking to someone, and that person sounded like an adult with a deep voice and he was laughing, so I talked into the walkie talkie to see who it was, he didn't answer, then  I woke up...

Out of Body Rope Technique
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: OBE's

This is one I've used quite frequently with alot of success, I am going to try to do this one for the next week every night and see what happens.

 

THE ROPE TECHNIQUE


This technique was developed by Robert Bruce. I have included it because I find it to be one of the easiest techniques around. The speed at which it works is also surprising. Also this method does not require the ability to visualise.

This projection method will give you an etheric projection. The duration of this projection, in real time, will depend on the level of chakra development and energy flow you have attained.

Getting the feel of the Rope

Pin a length of ribbon, string or rope to the ceiling above you. Have it hanging within arms reach so you can easily reach up and touch it. Reach out and touch it frequently, until you are used to where it is in your mind. This ribbon is only a tactile aide. By being able to reach out and touch the ribbon, you used to the spatial coordinates of where the invisible, imaginary ROPE is. This grows both in your mind and hence as a thought form, making it easier to imagine yourself reaching out and climbing the ROPE with your imaginary HANDS.

Note: You do NOT have to actually visualize, or see, the ROPE at any time, just know where it is supposed to be. This method uses NO visualization at all.

Reaching out and pulling on this invisible, imaginary ROPE with your imaginary HANDS shifts the bodily awareness induced point of consciousness, out of the body, with a strong natural action that puts direct pressure on one point of the etheric body.

The Technique

1.Do the relaxation exercise thoroughly, until you are completely settled. This should only take a few minutes, don't overdo it.

2. Reach out with your imaginary HANDS and pull yourself, hand over hand, up the strong, invisible, imaginary ROPE hanging above you. Try and imagine the feel of a strong, thick, coarse rope in your HANDS.

Don't try and visualise this ROPE! I want you to imagine you are reaching out and climbing this ROPE in the pitch dark, so you can't see it at all, you just know where it is and can imagine the feel of it. Visualisation wastes valuable mental energy that can be better put to use exerting direct pressure on your etheric body.

You will feel a slight dizzy sensation inside you as you do this, specifically in your upper torso. This is caused by exerting dynamic pressure on the etheric body. The dizzy sensation comes from the etheric body loosening. This feeling of vertigo will intensify the more you pull on the rope.

Very Important Note (1): This dizzy feeling and any feelings of pressure or vertigo, etc, caused by your mental action of pulling on the ROPE MUST be carefully noted by you. Learn the EXACT mental action you are doing to cause this vertigo. You will have to train your mental climbing action to cause this feeling. So, the first few times you try this ROPE method, concentrate on finding the right mental action to do this. Once you learn what it is you are doing to cause this, and can recreate it at will, you are really starting to get somewhere.

Very Important Note (2): IGNORE *ALL* SENSATION YOU FEEL DURING PROJECTION or it will distract you, break your concentration, and ruin your chances for projection. Concentrate on the single act of climbing your ROPE to the TOTAL exclusion of everything else. Put everything you have into this one action, but don't tense up, it must be all mental.

3. Keep climbing, hand over hand, ever upwards, and you will feel the heavy sensation come over you. The pressure you are exerting on your etheric body will force you into the trance state. Ignore this when it happens and concentrate on what you are doing.

4. Keep climbing and you will feel your chakras open in response to the pressure, don't stop.

5. Next you will feel the vibrations start, your whole body will seem to be vibrating and you will feel paralysed. Concentrate, single minded, on climbing your rope, don't stop.

6. Next you will feel yourself coming free of your body. You will buzz slightly as you feel yourself coming out of your body. You will exit your body in the direction of your imaginary rope and will be hovering above your body. You're free at last!

Note: Do *NOT* allow yourself to break concentration when the vibrations start. They are a natural effect caused by energy coursing through all the hundreds of major and minor chakras in your body.

Lucid dreams

Now Playing: Sleep-Chemical Romance
Topic: Lucid Dreams
A friend recently told me that he has been having more lucid dreams using B complex and vitamin C.  Not sure if this works, I used to use b-complex and vitamin E and got good results with that, but I ate alot of fish as well so maybe that has something to do with it.   No dreams to report really for the last few weeks..

work dream
Topic: Regular Dreams
I dreamt that I was assembling and right behind me this girl Nikki who quit was working.  I said to her "oh you decided to come back?" and she started talking and laughing like nothing ever happened.  All of a sudden I felt very dizzy, like I was going to pass out and I told her , "Look if I pass out don't tell Charlene (the boss).  I'm already in enough shit and I don't need her over here.  I started to black out and pass out and then I woke up.

2 dreams Willie I think
Topic: Precognitive Dreams

Well I don't quite remember the whole dreams, but two night ago I dreamt that willie was here and we were having sex.  That's all I remember, must've been horny, and I kept telling him that I had to go in for my biopsy and we shouldn't be doing that!  , then last night I just had a dream that someone was here with me and I think it was Willie, actually I don't even know if it was here, we could have somewhere else but it looked like willie and we were just laying down, someone came in the room and I can't remember who that was , I really don't remember a whole lot except we were snuggled up like we do,  I guess. aww.

 

edit:  I found out later that Willie got hit by a car on this day, after the dreams, not sure if these were like supposed to be warning dreams or what.

Angry bosses
Topic: Regular Dreams
Alright, I had a dream last night about Charlene and work.  I dreamt that she told me to go finish, so I did and she was up my ass again checking my shades, etc.  She was stomping around, just having a big attitude and then she told me to go home at 9 o'clock.  That didn't bother me, but she was really acting angry so I went up to and said "what is wrong with you?" She just busted out crying and said "I am so fucking angry!"   I said 'what are you so angry about?" and she said "we're never going to get all these shades done!!" .. I looked at her and said 'we're working on stuff for next week, what are you stressing out about?'  then I woke up.  And then I realized, when she told me the other day that I was under too much stress doing my job, that really..she is under too much stress maybe, on her job...I don't know..odd dream.

Pregnant and this damn ring that I got from Eddie
Topic: Precognitive Dreams

I had some really weird dreams.  First off, when I went to pick up big Eddie's stuff at the jail I found this ring in his stuff that I like alot so I've been wearing it quite a bit.  Well last night I had a dream that I kept looking at the ring and for some reason in the dream I was wearing the ring on my middle finger.  Now in real life, the ring will only fit on my left ring finger, but in the dream I was looking at my hand and it was on my middle finger and I was wondering in the dream how it fit on that finger since it did not fit on there before.  (Another chance to go lucid that I completely FUCKED up!  I am going to keep trying to look for this ring in dreams now since I saw it once, that may be a perfect trigger to go lucid in the future!).

 Second dream that I recall was I was pregnant.  but I didn't know who the baby's dad was.  I kept saying it was one person's but then I would get confused.  Usually when I dream about being pregnant I find out that someone close to me is pregnant, so I guess that's a warning to ALL OF YOU, hahaha....

Edit: This may have been a partial precog, we found shortly after this dream that my brother's wife lost her baby, she was pregnant, so I could have been picking up on her being in the hospital. 

 

 

Jesus had to be a vampire
Mood:  quizzical
Topic: Vampires
I don't know why that popped into my head this morning and trust me that wasn't the first time I have had that thought, but seriously Jesus strikes me as someone who could have been a vampire.  I mean, what is up with the whole drink my blood thing?  He dies (or so they say) and then reappears.  I can't remember where I saw it but I did read once that shamans have to be careful or they will turn into vampires.  It made me think of some of my own weird experiences, like the out of body experiences, do you know how weird it feels to be walking around your bedroom and notice that your body just happens to be laying on the bed asleep?  I will post some of those later, right now I have to go work!

Choronzon, the abyss and all these strange people
Topic: Insane rambling
I still get out of my head all these strange people who are appearing in my dreams lately, I mean who the hell are they?  That guy who seemed familiar who I couldn't figure out who it was bothers me the worst, I should have been able to go lucid and test him- ask him who the hell he was- to show himself because I bet he was that demon that I dream about often just disguising himself, that's why he wouldn't talk or say anything when I asked who he was.  I should've just said 'show your true self' and that would have been that, damn lucidity, where is it when I need it.  Maybe he was Choronzon, and I've landed back in the abyss.  I wouldn't doubt it, with all the shit going on lately and the crossroads, it's like standing here in the middle figureing out which way is the best direction and feeling pulled in a hundred different directions.  I did have a an encounter with one personal demon last night and I made it through, which I don't know how the hell that happened but I left shaking my head going 'what the hell was I thinking before?" , you ever do that?  So that made me feel better, addictions are a bitch, that is all I can say...

Lucid dream reality testing
Topic: Lucid Dreams

Ok, got this off the lucidity institute page and I know I've posted it before but here it goes again..  I think I might see how much a NovaDreamer is on ebay..do you know what that is?  That is one of those little eye masks with lights on it that Stephen Laberge designed I think and when you hit dreaming REM it flashing a light to let you know you are dreaming so you can go lucid...I think...I forget how it works..I wonder if it works?

Reality Testing

This is a good technique for beginners. Assign yourself several times a day to perform the following exercise. Also do it anytime you think of it, especially when something odd occurs or when you are reminded of dreams. It helps to choose specific occasions like: when you see your face in the mirror, look at your watch, arrive at work or home.  The more frequently and thoroughly you practice this technique, the better it will work.

1. Do a reality test.
   Carry some text with you or wear a digital watch throughout the day. To do a reality test, read the words or the numbers on the watch. Then, look away and look back, observing the letters or numbers to see if they change. Try to make them change while watching them. Research shows that text changes 75% of the time it is re-read once and changes 95% it is re-read twice. If the characters do change, or are not normal, or do not make sense, then you are most probably dreaming. Enjoy! If the characters are normal, stable, and sensible, then you probably aren't dreaming. Go on to step 2.
   

2. Imagine that your surroundings are a dream.
   If you are fairly certain you are awake (you can never be 100% sure!), then say to yourself, "I may not be dreaming now, but if I were, what would it be like?" Visualize as vividly as possible that you are dreaming. Intently imagine that what you are seeing, hearing, smelling, feeling is all a dream. Imagine instabilities in your environment, words changing, scenes transforming, perhaps you floating off the ground. Create in yourself the feeling that you are in a dream. Holding that feeling, go on to step 3.
   

3. Visualize yourself enjoying a dream activity.
   Decide on something you would like to do in your next lucid dream, perhaps flying, talking to particular dream characters, or just exploring the dream world. Continue to imagine that you are dreaming now, and visualize yourself enjoying your chosen activity.
