This is definitely not a coincidence.

I have dreams like that myself.  The first time I had a entire dream play out in my waking life I freaked out. That was many years ago.  I'm very much not afraid of that anymore.

Keep on dreaming.....

My first lucid experience was actually leading me into an OBE. When I realized I was lucid, I said "Wow.. this is great.. let me take this a step further and bring my lover to me" and BAM.. that's when I felt my body vibrating.  Next thing I know there's, what I think, is a human on top of me, embracing me. I could feel the body weight.  Even though my eyes were closed, I can see that he was just about to kiss me and that's when I realized that this was more than just a lucid dream because I could feel this while I'm in bed.  I felt that this man actually popped out of my dream and I popped out of the dream as well. I stopped it by saying "no, I'm not ready for this" and poof.. GONE.  I knew it was a spirit of some sort.  I live alone so there's no chance of a real guy being there.  Once the spirit left, I slowly opened my eyes with my hands in front of me (in the way you would put your hands out to push something off of you).  I was in shock for a few minutes thinking what the heck just happened.  This was about 5 months ago.

My life has been changed ever since that experience. I've been stuyding dreams for many years and have become an expert at interpreting. I also have psychic dreams (so I'm not knew to dreams). I purposely choose not to have lucid dreams because I didn't want to control anything.  Now, since this experience, I have about 1 a month and am practicing to have at least 3 a week. OBE's will be next experience but not until I understand everything.

QUESTION:  Can you call out to someone in an OBE state?  Did I call my astral lover to me or is it possible that I called someone else who was maybe coming out just at the time I called for them?  I haven't heard or read of any other experience like this.  I'm very curious. One thing I do know, that other "person" or "spirit" was real.  It was gentle, tender and loving (not evil at all)

HELP!!!!

What kind of question is that? Do they ask for money? What nonprofit organization doesn't ask for money!

And Madonna said she won't turn her head if you call her Esther. I think it's nice she's following the tradition but don't expect her to ask everyone to call her by that new name.  

P.S. I'm more in Budha than Kabahla but I'm so glad Madonna has turned to spirituality.  I have always loved her!  Saw her in concert and she nicely mixed her show with entertainment and spirituality.

You seem to be very new in your exploration.  Try to enjoy the journal and learning process before jumping into things too deeply then you will have less to fear.

Good luck

I have experienced that a couple of times myself (vibrations). I try to jump into a dream while vibrating so I can have an amazing LD experience.  Sometimes they just go away and sometimes they bring me into a LD experience.

Sounds like progress to me that you are making.  Good luck and keep up the good work.

 I find it impossible to fall into a normal dream after achieving lucidity. I don't know, perhaps it is different with other people...

It's actually very common to have have a regular dream after loosing lucidity (and many false awakenings). Happens to me after an LD if I'm not totally awake with a huge grin on my face.

I thought it curious, but then a day later a second blemish occured parallel and right above the first blemish. They are lined-up, so to speak.

I do not have 3rd-eye vision, but I'm wondering what this is symbolic of? Is my body saying that the 3rd-eye circuitry is developing? Is that why the blemishes are popping up there in parallel? They aren't exactly pimples/zits. I have dry skin so I don't really ever get any blemishes, so these really are interesting.

Any coments?

HOLY MOTHER OF ALL THINGS GOOD AND LIGHT!!!!!!!
I have been learning to open my third eye. In one of my yoga moves, there is an excercise where you sit down in the yoga position lean forward, look up at your third eye and chant "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" for an entire breath.  Relax and do it again.  I've been doing this for a bit and I have been practicing lucid dreaming (I have them every week) Guess what.... I noticed today that in the middle of my fore-head I'm starting to see blemishes (small, nothing big) and I have CLEAR SKIN!!  I never had acne problems.  I have a friend who told me that my third eye is opening (because if I close my eyes and point my finger on my forehead, I can actually see the shadow of my finger tip, she told me I could see it because my third eye is opening).

Later, I looked in the mirror and wondered "hmmm..could these zits be from my third eye opening" and I called her to ask but still haven't reach her yet.  I happen to jump on this website and see this post.

WHAT A COINCIDENCE!!!

Blissful

I think I understand what you mean and I do believe that guilt is a wasted emotion.. however, we also have free will regardless of what others try to do to us. If we are caged in by fear that's because we allow ourselves to be caged in.  

On the other side of the coin, there are a lot of things I wished I could explore or actually pursue certain desires that I have but I wouldnt necessarily do it.  This is where rational mind, intelligence and balance comes into play.  We as humans will always have to work on that part of us (guilt, desire) but when I am really confused.. I just pray for clarity and direction from the universe.  If we are meant to pursue certain desires I believe that the angels/God/universe will give us signs or "coincidences" to lead us there if we ask.

My thing is this; if you have to ask then it probably wasn't.  The vibrational state is something that is so strong you can't deny it.  Matter-of-fact, when you first get to that stage you may actually get a little freaked out.  

Keep trying.. you are most likely getting close.  It does take a while, especially the first couple of attempts.

Good luck

What do you get when you hurt from Love:  GROWTH!

As for feeling hurt right now, just realize that THIS TOO SHALL PASS!

TRUST ME!

Blissful

Think about what is going on in your waking life (a problem, a situation, whatever) where you feel you are making progress (two steps ahead) only to fall back 10 steps.  

Focus on how you feel emotionally in this dream.  Emotions are literal.  Associate the emotions you have in the ocean to the emotions you have on a particular situation in your waking life. Chances are there will be a connection.

Try, next time you have this dream, so see if there are hints to a solution.  Or even better yet, try to become lucid and make a rescue ship appear to save you!

Good luck

Blissful

Being mindful, being enlightened, being touched by an Angel, feeling love not just from friends, family and lovers, but feeling the love of oneself, of feeling and knowing you are balanced..... all of these things put you in a state of BLISSFULNESS!
It's like being totally engulfed in good vibrations and not having to "know" where it's all coming from.

Blissful

I can't wait to see this!

False awakenings can work wonders for you. Next time, do a reality check to see if you are still dreaming.  Check your hands or your body and see is something is different. Also, for a reality check, see if you can float off the ground. If so, then you have proof that you are dreaming, then you can become LUCID!  There's nothing better than that.

My mother is a hard core christian and she would agrue that this stuff is from satan.  So, I guess it all depends on what degree of christianity you are referring to.

Samsara,

Yes, but not the beach specifically, but I have dreamt of beautiful surroundings and the dream was very vivid and clear and peaceful. I have plenty of dreams like that and when I wake up I always feel so... blissful.

But it doesn't sound like it was lucid/astral but it does sound like a great dream overall.

Blissful

I can't answer your questions but I can surely make this comment:  I AM SO JEALOUS OF YOU FOLKS THAT CAN DO AN OBE NEVER MIND GOING SOMEWHERE.

Sounds like you made huge progress just by taking the advice of calling out to where you wanted to go.  Maybe each and every time you'll get closer and closer to the ideal destination.

I've been told that for a relationship to really be fulfilling & lasting it has to be compatible on 5 different levels.

Physical
Mental
Creative
Spiritual
Emotional

The closer to 100% on each level makes the best relationship even though it is possible to get by on being 85-100% on only 2 levels. Unfortunately, I have yet to find someone that I am compatible with on more than three levels.  

Wow.. when you look at this list, I realize I've only dated men who have had one thing on that list.  How unbalanced (and it explains a lot as to why those relatioships all died out too).

Thanks for sharing

Blissful

what? What is it that you like with negative energy?  Do you like to be brought to your knees by someone powerful?

I dont get it?

P.S. I can't help you here either as all my energy is positive and from the light!

Blisfful

Huh.. tell me you don't believe now (bet you can't after that experience).

Congrats. You had a beautiful trip in the astral world!  Keep believing because what you experienced was ASTRAL 100%.

Question: Did you notice your body vibrating when you woke up (or at least felt the vibrations subsiding).  I love that feeling.  It's buzzy and warm!

Blissful

Yes, if you can become lucid while in a dream state, an OBE is practically guaranteed.. however, becoming lucid while dreaming is just as challenging as trying to have an OBE.

Good luck and let me know how it works for you!

If you guys are so worried about losing energy, why don't you just eat your semen?  Then aren't you just eating back the energy?  Do you see the logic of the energy loss?  It sounds like its more psychological for you guys rather than physical.

I can't even believe I'm going to entertain this subject but this is a real question: What about when a woman swallows it?  Is she receiving more energy from the guy?  Does that make her MORE POWERFUL???

Please answer with truth on this one. I know if may sound like a joke question but it's not.

I loved his book Journeys... and I have tried his method.  I wasn't successful coming out but I think because the times not right.  I tried the roll method where you are on your back and you try to roll out of your body during vibration. I could actually feel my soul rocking back and forth trying to come out but I was still stuck in my body. Even though I didn't come out, the experience itself was pretty cool.

It's just that my time is not right.  When I'm ready it'll take place

Are those people who become lucid in dreams by looking at their hands to begin with? I can imagine it would work well then.

As a lucid dreamer myself, I look at my hands as a reality check throughout the day. When I am suspicious that I may be dreaming, I look at my hands to verify. It works quite well (as in the dream world your hands are typically different).  What I have learned in my last experience, is that if you look at your feet and feel them on the ground your astral experience will last longer.  I think it's because when looking at your feet and feeling your feet you are allowing yourself to be "GROUNDED".  

How many of you actually stare at your feet during a lucid or OBE experience?  If not, try it and let us know if your astral experience lasts longer.

MajorTom,

Oh my goodness... I wish I could OBE like you. I only had a partial one and backed out due to fear.  As I was reading your story, I started to think (dont take this the wrong way) "Why is he only strolling down the street with this power?  You can stroll down the street early in the am in reality if you wanted to, why not use this gift to do things you can normally do" but by the end of the story, I realized that the walk was very loving (with your wife and all).  Sometimes the adventures don't always have to be mind blowing in an astral sense.

Good for you. I'm jealous now. []
