it could be that she has been your astral friend for a long time and now you finally met her in real life.

Interesting! You just made me realize I dream of strange people all the time... would you suggest they exist for real too? :)

the point is, you found eachother, now you can work together.....

Yeah, I get you, but work together... in doing what, exactly? What would you do if you were in my shoes?
We were expecting none of this. I do kinda feel there is something to be done, though, but I don't know what it is or how to do it. Plus, that can feel particularly awkward when you have known the person for 2 months only. It's challenging to figure out what is going on, but I'm enjoying the process!

My take is that if you are looking for the key that proves all religions were formed from different cultural perspectives of the same phenomenon. Then your recent experience, was you hitting the jackpot. You are on the edge of a vast chasm of knowledge. Your life won't be the same if you start intensely researching this discipline, ever. In fact it will probably be in disarray for sometime if you do want to delve into astral projection as a science before it returns to normal.

I am in disarray already, haha! It all hit me pointblank, I was not looking for any explanation, I'm not a believer or disbeliever of anything in particular, so... you can guess how weird this feels for me. I know all of this is possible cause it just happened to me, so what else is out there? All of a sudden I'm questioning the limits of everything from consciousness to the characters in my dreams. Pretty overwhelming. I'll just read on and on and on...

Cool stuff! I'm kind of still in awe because this is a whole new world for me, and realizing how things are connected just makes life much juicier :)

The question for me right now is: How can I make the best out of what happened? Ok, I don't get how or why this connection with my teacher has been made, but that doesn't matter, really. It was kickass, it must mean something good. So I'm fine with it. More than that, I feel privileged that it happened to me and I remember it.

Thing is, now I feel much closer to a person who "doesn't remember what happened". What's next? I don't know what to expect. It feels good... but still puzzling! I can't go on ignoring what happened - it was too strong and sometimes it feels like there is something else to come out of it, but at the same time I don't want to push or force any kind of unnatural behavior between us.
I still dream of her, most of the times I don't remember what, but recently I had a dream in which I didn't see her at any time but could feel her presence watching the scene by my side. But I didn't get lucid...

I'll try to practice and read on.

Your words have been really enlightening and kind, so keep them coming :D

I don't know which one of us felt more shocked!

Well, to me it does feel pretty crazy since I'm not used to any of this, I don't meditate, I don't.. anything! What has changed in my life recently was my lifestyle, you know, eating habits and physical activity. A few months ago I decided to change and cleanse myself, haha. Thinking about it now I sure notice all of this improved my sleep very much, and I can remember dreams better... but suddenly this! It's a bit more than what I could possibly expect!

Thanks I guess!

I wouldn't consider us being spiritualized or anything (Well, I can only speak for myself since I don't really know much about my teacher! But as far as she told me, she's just as skeptic as I am. We're just really puzzled and don't know what to believe or not!)

As for the concentration thing, well, we're both musicians - that's what she teaches, actually - so I guess one can say we're used to keeping focused, yeah. And I happen to live next to a stream, I'm often exposed to white-noise, so it's pretty easy for me to stay calm and relaxed here.


I'm really looking for more rational explanations about this. You know, I wouldn't want to be seen as the crazy weirdo who is able to find out information when I sleep. That just doesn't seem right. At first it was sort of disturbing and not easy to deal with.

Now I've been trying to read more on the topic and put my thoughts in order. If you have suggestions of articles or whatever, they'd be much appreciated!

Yep, it's even hard to describe how real it felt. Almost more real than being awake. All my senses were enhanced, I was able to read from a distance that I normally can't, the part when she grabbed my hands was also very intense, the sense of touch was stronger... everything was stronger, really. And super bright.

But what exactly is considered a projection to a higher level? Are we talking about dimensions, brain frequencies, or they're pretty much the same thing... or...?

Hello everyone!

I recently had a weird dream experience and I'm looking forward to hearing your insights on the subject. Here's a brief version of what happened:


I was dreaming of a teacher I've known for no longer than 2 months, and suddenly I noticed her hands were not quite her hands - that was the cue for me to realize I was in a dream.

At first I thought she could be a mere character of my imagination, so I tried to control her, make her move around and so forth, but that didn't work.

She looked extremely drowsy, kept saying she hadn't had her coffee, and such oddities.

I, then, started asking trivial questions, and we ended up having a nice long conversation. (I don't feel like I remember one tenth of the whole thing, though)
By this time, the whole dream scenario was really bright! I was feeling unbelievably comfortable and relaxed. We chatted for what seemed to last an entire night of sleep (or even longer!).

Suddenly I tell her something like "too bad this is a dream because it's really fun!" and she comes up to me, grabs my hands, looks deep into my eyes and says "this is not a dream" and displays her hands as an evidence - yes, they were really her hands this time! And she continues with "this is the 6th plane... I'm not going to remember this because I haven't had my coffee, but this time you will, and you can wake up right now and tell me about it".
I had troubles awakening, so she bit my hand and I managed to wake up for good.


The first thing I did was jolt every piece of information I could remember about our conversation onto my notebook, such as parts of her phone number and other bits of personal information.

The following week I met her in class and told her this whole story. We were both like "what the F***!!!" because I really got a LOT of things damn right, including a huge part of her phone number, things about her mom and so on. All of which I couldn't possibly know.

The reason I'm not scared is because I know what an awesome and soothing experience it was, - all my senses felt really enhanced throughout the whole dream, it was a VERY intense experience and there's no possible way I can link anything other than joy to it.

However, I do find it very bizarre that I was able to get an enormous amount of accurate information!

What do you guys say about it? Is that astral projecting?
It might be important to say that when I woke up I felt more rested than I normally do. Everything was just peaceful and good, more than words can describe.

Is there any chance we might have actually been to a "sixth dimension" or whatever? I'm fairly new to this subject, I don't know what to believe or not, but it would be cool to hear similar stories if you have any.
