Nameless,

Thinking of you and your family and I too am sending healing energy your way.
Take Care.

This has always been one of many favourite threads on this forum.  I always enjoy reading everyone's experience.  Thanks for adding yours EV!  My favourite books I've read were by Bruce Moen and reading about his sessions with TMI.  It is always great to hear other people's experiences with TMI who participate in this forum. 

Sounded like an awesome experience EV!

CallMePatrick,

I certainly understand what you are going thru as I too will experience the craziest things in a dream and just accept it to be true.  Some things I would suggest is to be more aware of your waking life.  Get in to the habit of examining your environment in physical reality and be mindful of everything around you.  This will eventually seep into your dreaming life.  You will eventually find yourself examining your dream environment.  Also, get into the habit of doing reality checks in the physical.  You can do a search on the net if you need examples.  For example, if you happen to dream a lot about dogs than every time you see a dog in physical reality do a reality check such as trying to push your finger thru the palm of your other hand.  If you can push it thru than you will realize that you are dreaming.  If you cannot than state out loud or to yourself that you are not dreaming right now.  These reality checks if done thru out the day will also seep into your dreaming life.  I was shocked the first time I did a reality check in a dream.  It works.  I only average about one LD every 4-6 weeks but hope to keep increasing that number.  My last LD I actually asked a dream character for advice on how to become Lucid more often.  I was told that I just need to let go and let it happen.  This person said if I try to hard that I will prevent myself from having any.  You could also try saying affirmations before you go to sleep such as 'Tonight, I allow myself to dream with full awareness and lucidity'.  You will also find that once you find something that works it may not work for you again!  It's never easy...you have to keep trying!  Hope some of this will help.

Plume,

Thanks for starting this thread.  I think it will be lots of fun!  I was at work when I got your message about the new thread and when I went to check it out on my phone your pictures did not show up.  I was disappointed that things were not working for you with your photos.  I was going to message you after work and try and figure out what was going on.  However, since I got home and logged onto my computer I see that your photos are now showing up...even on my phone.  I guess things on the web can just be much slower sometimes...go figure!  I don't know anything about Tarot cards and their meanings but I find your interpretation very interesting.  I was very happy to see the photo's that you were describing in your message.  You mention me being a guide/helper, well you won't always see me around but just know that I am lurking in the shadows...HeHe!  I am always happy to help.  All you have to do is ask!   

Can't wait to see more! 

FYI,

Just wanted to let people know that a new Gateway has been released.  It is the 'Gateway Experience Wave VII - Voyager' which they say that this album is based on the Monroe Institute's Lifeline program.  I will likely try it at some point in the future but if anyone tries it out in the mean time I would be interested to know what you think of it.

Cheers!

LightBeam,

The only thing that gets me to eat my veggies is a great dip.  I will certainly try it!  Sounds delicious!

Volgerle,

Thanks for all the info.  Looks like a lot of great stuff there and going to take some time to go through it.  I've already gotten started!   

We are going to have fun with this. hang in there T-man , your cards are still on my table. Collecting dust mind you but that's the rules of my games, nothing moves until I process the info. You will understand how I work , slow but devoted on this journey.
Great spirits here.
Plume.

Plume,

Looking forward to the new thread you start...Sounds like it will be lots of fun!

I'm feeling pretty good about 2019.

I agree Nameless as I am pressing the reset button! 

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year and successful 2019 for all your AP'ing, LD'ing and Spiritual Growth!

Those are certainly cool pics!  I see a second face in the crystal pic just to the left and slightly down. 

Wow, everyone here has such great responses.  When this thread started I would never have linked this movie to OBE/AP'ing since AP'ing is quite new to me.  You have all opened my eyes.  I decided to try and come up with some symbolism myself.  The only things I think I can add are maybe Dorthy following the Yellow Brick Road which was possibly her path to enlightenment.  The other thing that comes to mind is when she wants to end the experience and she clicks her heels three times and says 'There's no place like home'.  She could be thinking about being back in her body as being home and clicking her heels could be like moving her physical feet or wiggling that Big Toe!

Congrats Plume!  I'm glad to see your photos are working.  I look forward to seeing many more of your photos posted here.  That is funny how you were reminded of a T-Rex and of me helping you post your pic of your dinosaurs.  I have never had a Tarot card reading before.  I look forward to hearing what you have to say.  There are many great people here on this forum all offering their help!

Cheers,
T-Rex

Lumaza,

Thanks for the kind words.  I certainly don't have AP'ing advice for anyone but I can help out with computer advice.   


Plume,

I edited my pic of how to post an image.  I added a 2nd example to make it easier to read.  I did have to delete my Web Browser History/Cookies though before the picture refreshed on the original posting.  I will just add it here again so it will be available.

Now that is certainly nicer than a link!!! 

You can certainly just put a link into your message but not everyone will click on the link to view it.  Some people just like to see the image immediately!  You know...instant gratification! 

I am posting what your text should look like when you are trying to post an image:

Give me a few minutes and I will post what you are trying to do.

Let me try posting your pic.

SCHMUSTIN,

Very sorry to hear about your Mom.  Speaking from experience it is always hard loosing a parent.  All I can say is that with time things will get better.  I like to think of it as being a new beginning for her journey.  I think that as an AP'er you know without any doubt that you will see her again. 

My condolences to you and your family.

Plume,

You cannot just upload pics to this forum.  You have to post them elsewhere and than enter the link to them in the 'upload ' process.  For example, my internet service provider provides me a personal account where I can store pics.  I than enter the link to those pics when I am trying to 'upload ' a photo to this forum.  Hope that helps. 

Thanks for this convesation Lightbeam and Nameless.  It has been very inspirational and many great words to live by.  I am trying to do the same by living in the present!

Cheers!

Thanks all,

To me:
Dinosaur = old
Fenced area = enclosure, limitations, habits

Maybe I'm breaking free of old habits.  Hopefully I'm moving on to the next level!

Hello all!

Just thought I would check in.  I haven't posted in awhile but I still come here daily.  Haven't had much to post.  The most recent experience I've had was having two LD's in one night.  Not usual for me but the interesting thing was they were the same LD.  I haven't had a LD in some time and before I went to bed I had a strong intent to have one and I wanted to learn something from it.  So, I had the first LD and awoke and wrote it down.  I little later in the night I had the same LD again but I was able to make changes in the dream as the same scenario unfolded. 
I have also been recording my dreams for the past year and half and have been learning things about myself and trying to make improvements.   Within this past week I had a dream and was told that I would be working with different people now.  It seems that maybe the types of dreams have changed now.  Not quite sure how to describe it but they just seem different than the usual ones I've had.  Still need to figure out the theme.
Last night I saw a dinosaur trying to escape a fenced off area like in Jurassic Park.  I than became the dinosaur.  Not sure where that one came from.

Bloodshadow,

Sounds like a cool experience in the float tank.  That would be great to have one of those at home to jump into and meditate everyday!  If you were to use it on a regular basis you probably would end up with the visuals.  Maybe you were just expecting too much on your first attempt and ended up putting a self imposed block on yourself.  From reading your previous experiences I know that you are determined to meet with your higher self.  Maybe another self imposed block.  You already know yourself better than anyone and maybe you should just accept whatever experiences come your way.  At some point you may be given that opportunity but for now maybe there are just other things you need to experience first.  You mention that your higher self must know the condition of your life but I do have one piece of advice for you.  As tough as things seem to be at times in your life just remember that you don't do things because they are easy...you do things because they are hard!

Cheers!
