Ever hear of a Dreamwalker?  I hadn't until recently.  I will say that a large majority of my dreaming is Lucid to some extent.  I can usually make quite a few decisions in my dreams, and control outcome on a regular basis.  I was talking with a friend online a while back, and she informed me that her grandmother (she is a Hopi decendant) is/was a Dreamwalker.  The way she described it is, you meditate, concentrate on the person you want to "walk on" while that said person is asleep, and then you basically "walk" into their dream..and can control the outcomes of their dreams.  At first the idea intrigued me, but upon thinking more closely, it scares me.  I mean, if that is true, then said Dreamwalker could be a massive subconcious influence upon the target.  I am not sure if i believe this can be done (i guess it COULD be done through OBE/Lucidity), has anyone else heard of this sort of thing, and if so...what are your views on it?

I appreciate any and all input, thank you.

Ok, this happened to me about 3 years ago, but still is fresh in my mind.  I guess ive always had OBE's to some extent, starting when i was quite young.  Anyhow, on to my experience.

I went out of body, floated up through clouds, went through a "black" patch of area, and emerged in what i can only describe as purple and yellow/pink at the same time.  In the distance, i thought i could see little flying lizards of sorts, but i could never see them clearly (if i didnt look directly at them, i could see them).  I had a sense of being watched, yet not threatened.  There did not "appear" to be a ground of any sort, though i was firmly standing on ground.  Anyhow, i walked in one direction for a bit, and came across a being.  This being was maybe 3ft in height, and was quite peculiar looking.  It had a "primate" sort of face, not human, but more than ape.  It also had a tail.  It was garbed in baggy clothing of a plain nature (tannish/brown color) and had a backpack of sorts on.  It was sitting, reading a book.  On its nose were spectacles that were square and gold rimmed.  When i approached, it looked up at me and smiled.  I asked what it was, and it replied that it was a "custodian to the Library".  I asked what it was reading, and it said "the story of your lives".  I then asked if i could read it, and it told me that i had to ask someone/something named Mesha.  The next thing is completely off the wall....it recited a knock-knock joke!  I then had a sense that i was to leave, like i had a rope tied to the back of my head & it was being pulled.  As soon as i gave into the feeling, i abruptly came back into my body.

My question is....where was I?  I know i was NOT asleep, i was "meditating" (listening to music), and only TWO minutes had passed on my clock even though i had felt like i was away for almost an hour.

If this WAS actually a trip to the Astral Plane, i am excited that i went there, yet also distraught.  I went there "by accident", and have tried to return with no avail.  I have a problem with concentration (cant even be hypnotized).  All of my OBE's have just come naturally.  I usually get them when listening to music, i get the feeling that i am turning into the smallest particle, yet extremely dense.  Then, i have the image in my mind of rolling clouds coming over me, and i picture my body getting very thin and heavy.  Am i a "natural" or am i just "a few pancakes short of a stack"...hehe.

Thanks for the offer, but i wouldnt know where to even begin...hehe.  I myself have had numerous OBE's, but not under controlled circumstances..well not many.  As for LD, almost all of my dreams have been for about a year now (i dont know WHAT i did to get that, but i like it..heh).  Actually, when i posted this, i was quite concerned about they whole "dreamwalking" thing, seeing it as a possible harmful thing.  Now that i've thought about it more, i can see how it could be extremely useful in helping others (especially if it does take the permission of others).  But as for me "walking" on someone else's dream...i can say with some assuredness that i personally dont think i have enough "energy" to do that.  I cant even OBE upon request..usually just happens when i am relaxing.

Anyhow, thank you for the replies

Well i spent about 2 hours reading as much as i could in all of these forums and WOW....I also went to other various sites on this subject, and tried a few experiments out.  The results were small, yet promising.  I at least got "out" of my body for a small period of time willfully.  Ive travelled out a lot of times, but never truly on purpose (i guess all times are willfully, just not at command).  I really hope to be able to get this skill under control, so that i can enjoy all the experiences that i have read about here, and maybe answer some of my own questions (like if that WAS the Astral Plane i went to).  

I would like to thank Robert for having this site, and also everyone that has posted experiences, thoughts, and replies.  I really think my life is changing for the better because of this.
