I've noticed lately that every single "Dream" (OBE) I've had has been a test. Literally every night for at least 2 weeks. Fear tests, relationship tests, moral tests, giving into seduction, you name it - every night.
I'm even having multiple tests in one night. And I'm noticing patterns. I usually either wake up at the end of a test, or the situation changes.
Here's an example from one night alone.
The other night I had a "dream" where I threw a water balloon at someone at a party and it landed on this lady's dress (I can only imagine what was objectively happening), but she got mad and I made a genuine apology. That must have been a "pass" because we both then got really happy and I woke up in my bed.
Then I fell asleep and I was in a new environment with three tests all going in one experience. So first there was something that everyone in this house was afraid of. I didn't fear it (passed that test) so the fearful thing was completely forgotten.
So on to the new test - calmly fixing some problem (cant remember what the problem exactly was) so we could all get to a new environment. Then the second test came. And this time it was seduction. Honestly, I completely failed so the whole environment changed again into some new "dream." In this one there were dozens of children in a pool and the lifeguard wasn't watching any of them. I think the test was to see if I would do something to increase the safety of the environment - talking to the lifeguard or something. I didn't do anything (fail) so I woke up in my bed.
I thought tests came here and there and most of the time was spent exploring. Not every single night sometimes more than once. :-o
They'll come unexpectedly.
You may know or not but when the experience gains clarity you will rely on your instincts, won't you?
They have a feel to them, it's subtle, you'll know.
Do your best to simply be yourself on a good day. This will expand your horizons and allow you into some nicer realities. :wink:
