Thank you very much for that video. I was skeptical at first but I soon discovered that it spoke very accurately to much of what I've been experiencing lately. I feel as if this may be the most important and relevant thread on avalon at his time. So many of you have voiced precisely what's been happening to me and my partner lately.
One of you, I forget whom, mentioned something about the two dreams merging (waking dream and sleeping dream). I wanted to speak on this issue because my experiences have been teaching me a lot about this lately. First, I would like to relate that many of my sleep dreams (the ones I can remember) have become extremely lucid, so much so that they become virtually inseparable and indistinguishable from normal everyday life. I remember having a conversation with a man in a dream I had four or five months ago. He told me, "This dream and the dream you have when you awake, are the same. You take that dream to be real, and this one to be false, because when you awake, your memory is partial. In fact, they are the same."
Second, I would like to share one night in particular, near the middle of August, when I had a lucid dream that was so powerful, so real, so life-like that my memory of it forces me to conclude that it was absolutely real. Imagine a lucid dream that, far from just allowing you to "know your dreaming," actually allows you to be as aware and awake as you are right now reading these words on your computer screen. I inhabited this dream for what felt like a month before awaking in my bed next to my partner at 2:30-3:00 in the morning.
In the dream, I was being taught by a group of what I took to be shamans or magicians. They were teaching me about my abilities as a creator and the flexible nature of the reality I inhabited in the dream. They showed me, through trial and error, how I could project and experience whatever it was that I wished. I learned this by raising my index finger (almost comically) in the air and swishing it around in circles until the environment around me disintegrated and re-formed into something new.
Now, due to my own shortcomings and misunderstandings as a human being on this planet, I initially tried (in vain) to use this power to create realities that would satisfy some of my base desires--namely sex. After attempting this no less than three times, they explained to me that, even though I did possess the power of creation, it too had limitations. Apparently creating a sex-party reality isn't an ethical or allowable use of this power (LOL!). At any rate, after I awoke from that dream my partner also woke before going to the bathroom and puking. This was after I had puked the previous night right around the same time, between 2:00-3:00.
I have so much to say, but I regret making such a long post.
In short:
- More fatigue and feelings of lathargia, restlessness, being in standby mode, lack of motivation to do everyday work
- Decrease in appetite and a more violent bodily response to stuff like fast food, greasy and fatty foods
- Less interest in alcohol/marijuana
- Quit smoking cigarettes about two weeks ago after smoking for 3 years
- Girlfriend has been complaining of knots in her stomach
- Sudden waves of emotion related to hopelessness and/or despair one moment followed by nervous excitement and/or bliss the next
- More in tune with the thoughts and emotions of people around me so much so that I feel taxed being in the same space as my roommates who seem to be beaming me with negativity
- Subtle realization that we're on the cusp of a new reality, and I am reminded of a quote, "The night is darkest just before the dawn"
- Periods of extreme centerdness and awareness followed by intervals of extreme insecurity and mind-identification
- Greater desire to be alone and to marinate in myself, like a larva in a cocoon just before it hatches
- Greater depth and appreciation for the role my partner plays in my life and how beautiful/strong she is
- More aware of synchronicity and signs from the Universe related to my intuition and inner-most purpose
And may I conclude by saying that my allergies have been worse this year than any other year and that I just recently overcame being sick for little over a month with soar throat, congestion in my chest and sinuses, fevers on and off, etc. (I went to the doctor three times and they never discovered what was wrong with me, as no medication I tried seemed even to allay the symptoms).
There is definitely change afoot. We are all blessed to be aiding and sharing in the experience of this transition.
Re: is this happening to you too
I once woke up from a dream feeling as if I had lived a whole *LIFE* in the dream - I was sent back "here" because I refused to go of my own will. It felt like death going back. In this dream, I had a wife and several children (this was before I'd even met my present partner).
