Dream sharing?

[Adrian]

Greetings Lasher,

I can't say I have experienced a similar experience as such myself.

However, dreams, including lucid dreams usually take place in the level of the Astral corresponding to the personal psyche; i.e. they are an internal creation played out in the Astral ether. The next level of dreaming, again including lucid dreaming occures in the level of the Astral which corresponds to the group human consciousness; here you can interact with other people in a dream. Usually you would not know the other people you were meeting, and so it just seems like an oridinary dream. In your case it seems you shared your dream with your wife []

The next level is a full Astral projection in the Astral proper.

With best regards,

Adrian.

 How exciting!  I might be getting closer to a conscious OBE.  Thanks for your input, Adrian.

Hi Lasher,

What you had is probably what is called a mutual dream. I read a lot about it a while ago.

There are different types of mutual dreams.

You can dream the exact same situation with someone you know. You can  share symbols, pictures, etc. with someone you know (I think it's your case). You can dream of a situation and someone else dreams of the same situation, but you don't see each other. (This happened to me and it was amazing!)

Linda Lane Magallon wrote a whole book about mutual dreaming. If you want to go further in this type pf experience, here is a link about this book where you'll find the basics skills for mutual dreaming as well as the definition of a mutual dream.

Thank you, Valk.  And thank you too Kodemaster.  It's the thought that counts. []
I seem to remember reading in a Richard Bach book, years ago, that he and his wife were experimenting with this.  Each night before they went to sleep they would tell each other, "Remember to remember."

Hi guys,

I wasn't quite sure where to post this.  It wasn't a lucid dream, so i didn't put it there.  But it was certainly unusual.

Yesterday morning I awoke with the memory of a dream.  In the dream, my wife and I were packing to move.  At one point she suggested that I pull some items out of one box because they could be carried separately.  I was anxious to get going, so I said that they were fine in the box.  In the dream, we were moving to a town called Bernard.

I told the dream to my wife as we still lay in bed, and she said that she had just had a dream that we were packing to move too!  She said that she was packing up the kitchen and that I was trying to hustle things along.  In the middle of the packing, our Newfie/St Bernard Mix had puppies.  In the dream, Peg had taken note that one of the puppies looked completely like a St Bernard.

Coincidence?  I don't think so.  I think that this was a clear example of some sort of psychic communion.  We both find it pretty mindblowing.  We've been together for 15 years and nothing like this has ever happened with us before.

I would love to have any thoughts on this that anyone might be willing to share.

Thanks!

Lasher
