Events that unfolded three weeks ago during my sleep have left me shaken and confused. It was near 9pm, that i found myself getting sleepy while my kids were just laying down for bed. Out of habit, i have taken to sleeping on the couch, instead of my bed upstairs across the hallway from the kids. I am a single mother with a boy age 12 and a girl 9. Well this night i had become incredibly tired and laid down on the couch and seemed to immediately fall asleep. The dream came almost immediately. I dreamt there was this huge bed in my living room, perhaps a king size bed. But i noticed someone under the covers....and this strange buzzing sound was around me. There's a foot hanging out under the covers and i yank it half afraid it was a stranger or some monster. But low and behold its my Son who snatches the cover from his face & looks at me. Relieved but feeling odd i feel the need to bless my home and i went to the cabinet. As i grab the holy oil out of the cabinet the buzzing sound gets louder almost deafening. And before i can mark the door with a cross, I'm immediately in another dream.

This is where things get tricky....
When i succumb to the other dream im in my kitchen. I open the fridge but notice the door swings in the opposite direction. Immediately im knocked to the wall and cant move. Theres an entity sitting at my table. All black....almost demonic i can feel it pinning me to the wall but somehow i get angry and say to it "You know I'm not afraid of you right?". The entity turns into a young white male....almost in his late teens. He looks at me surprised and smirks. The force pinning me releases me. I take a step toward the boy and said "show me".For some reason i had this feeling he was there to teach me something. His fingertips glow and he rubs his hands really fast on the sides of his face and says to me"This is how you re-charge". Confused i just stare but almost immediately im standing in someones backyard facing the riverfront of Augusta,Ga. The porch is decorated in Christmas decorations. Im really there hear the river, other senses aware....this is not a dream. Day is breaking....and i get angry. I say to myself" He tricked me!" And my first thought is hurrying home to my body on the couch in fear he was trying to invade my body. As i step off the porch, a little boy (white ) child yells from the balcony overhead "Timmy!!!!" I look up he's looking at me as if I'm Timmy (??) I imagine myself home and immediately I'm there look at myself sleep on the chair, my clothes are different from when i fell asleep. I get back into my body making sure to align up every extremity. And i wake up. Whats so freaky is it literally was the break of dawn when i woke up just like in the "dream"

Now listen to this ****!
My kids stayed with their father over the weekend, from friday evening to Sunday late afternoon. That same Sunday evening i had this experience/dream. Okay....for the past year my son has been dealing with sleep paralysis. I've dealt with it my entire life so i comfort him telling him how to relax and wiggle out of it.

Well Wednesday afternoon he says to me mom I had one of those dreams again. I say to him oh really what happened. He says "It happened while i was at my dad. I was awake in his bed and couldnt move." He looks at me and says"Mom thats when you walked in and almost pulled me off the bed by my foot." I look at him scared shitless and shocked. Then he says, "then i felt myself vibrating all over.....like i was buzzing."I can barely even respond to him. Dumbfounded i say to him "Son, i had a dream you were asleep in this huge bed in my living room and i pulled your foot and you looked at me." Now he's shocked.....almost wished i hadnt said anything bc he seemed freaked out. Then i asked him...."Son, how big is the bed you sleep in at your Dad's?". He says to me "Its huge like yours (king size).

Can anyone explain this phenomenon?? There's a time gap between his dream & mine but what on earth occured while we were sleeping and seemed to see eachother in the astral??

Hi TT721,

From what I have read, astral travel and dreaming often mix in unpredictable ways--i.e., you may slip back and forth between lucidity and dream-state while in the astral, such that dream elements invade and color the experience. This sounds like one of those occasions. However, there are others with more experience and expertise in this area than me. I expect you will get some feedback from one or more shortly. If not, you may want to PM Eowyn, who can probably help untangle this for you.

Cordially,
S&S

Thanks for your feedback! Any information or guesses are welcomed!
 
Have you read this thread yet? http://reincarnationforum.com/threads/astral-projection-the-basics.5179/
I think you'll find it interesting in light of your experiences.

I know I interact with a close friend in our dreams on a regular basis, and can sometimes "see" each other's dream when being told about it, even though we don't remember having the dream ourselves. There are many possibilities for interaction on a spiritual level since (I believe) our core selves are non-local ... e.g. not entirely tied to the physical body as we are taught.

This event seems more a sign that you and your son are firmly bonded even at a distance than anything else. You can tell him that if you show up in the same way again it simply means you love him and some part of you decided to check in on him. That should drain the fear out of it for him.
 
Thank you for your response. Up until that occurence i didnt really put much thought into astral projection and tbh....its not often that im able to "leave" my body. I guess in a since I'm aware that im out of my body but still not aware that I am dreaming if that makes any sense. As for the entity/ teenage boy at my table.....could he possibly be a spirit guide or another astral traveler? And you may think I'm crazy but on the Augusta river they do a mini cruise on the riverfront. I'm almost tempted to go just to see if i can recognize the house with the balcony. And if I find this house what significance is tied to it??? So many questions I cant answer.....oh and did I mention that some of my dreams in the previous year have came true like premonitions. And just recently I realize I'm able to finish someone's sentence when they are talking to me amd I am directly looking in their eyes ( only close relative's so far). Im a little freaked out and dont know what is happening...maybe a spiritual awakening???
Thanks for your help and I will make sure to read the link you shared!!
 
Sounds like astral travel, maybe bits of remote viewing? That’s amazing and I’ve had experiences where entities havenaleo tried teaching me things in this state or discuss energy. Very curious !

Thank you so much!!! I'm really facinated by my experience also and have found a renewed interest in this subject matter. The fact that the boy disguised hisself as something scarey then reveals hisself is so crazy!!!! Tbh, i really think this guy and i crossed paths also in the astral world and that he is maybe wondering if I was just a dream also lol. Wouldnt it be crazy if someone more experienced in astral travel had the power to send us somewhere unbeknownst to us??And my son's dream.....the buzzing.....the same events. I think now more than ever that there really is a metaphysical state of ourselves!
Thanks for your response!!!
 
Hi TT721,

Things definitely seem to be happening in the area of psychic phenomena, but its hard to say how far they will go, nor is everything happening necessarily a sign of a new psychic awareness. However, having said that, I definitely understand your interest in following-through on certain things. In terms of the entity/youth you met, I think he was a prankster who tried to frighten you and remained a prankster even after you were able to strip him of (or "see through") his disguise and break his attempt to "pin" you. As noted, I'm no expert on the astral, but everything I've read indicates the presence of a lot of unsavory and/or mixed-up characters in the near-earth area. Apparently, we are fairly immune to their influence when deeply dreaming, and can break away at any time anyway as long as we do not let ourselves get drawn into the scenarios they (and maybe we) are projecting--i.e., just wake up and/or think of your body. How or why you zipped over to the river, I have no idea. Was this something "he" did or something you did? I can't say, but the ease with which you dealt with the initial attempt to pin and frighten you and your quick shift makes me think/suspect that: (1) You were the one in charge (which is rather impressive to me--the only time I ever had an encounter of this type I was scared witless); and (2) You had a subconscious mission to go there. The fact that you were so "present" in terms of your senses is also far from meaningless, though once again, I'm no expert. However, with my usual disclaimer out of the way, it appears that you were more "material" than is typical in astral travel. I have seen a distinction made between travel in the astral body and travel in the etheric body, with the latter being a "sheath" of higher vibrational level than the normal physical body and lower than that of the astral. Actually, the etheric supposedly acts as an interface between the two. Alternately, maybe you could also, so to speak, lower the vibrational level of your astral body to the extent necessary to pick-up these types of sense impressions. Whatever was going on, you probably made yourself "physically" present enough for someone, perhaps with a touch of psychic ability themselves to detect you--probably as a shadow or vague form in the early light--mistake you for someone else, and call out to you.

Anyhow, that is my very amateurish guess vis-a-vis the situation--which I will abandon as soon as someone with more knowledge speaks up to counter me. However, given the information you have put forth, I would definitely be curious to find the house. And, if it exists, what your tie-in is. It seems to me as if you were being subconsciously directed to that locale for some reason. It also seems to me that you have, perhaps via activities in PLs, some background and skills in out-of-body experiences. Do you have any recollections of involvement in the occult arts in past lives? You seem to have penetrated whatever was being projected at you by the trickster with ease, and after determining that he was not someone sent to help you (or indeed anything but a pest), shot off to do/see what you had on your (subconscious) mind. Once again, I'm just guessin' but you certainly did better than I did in a vaguely analogous situation.

Cordially,

Thanks so much!!! I agree with much of what you said. However, I'm really not certain what the occult practise is. From what I've experienced since I was a child for some reason this happens naturally without my trying. It use to terrify me as sometimes i could wake up, sit up and turn around and see myself lying in bed sometimes even staring into my oen eyes. When i did try to research what was happening in my early teens all i could understand was that it was either deemed witchcraft/satanic. Coming from a Christian upbringing I was told i needed to pray and it only happens to bad children. (Smh!!) Therefore i just dealt with it the best i could, in fear in most cases that these experienxes were NDE's. I have very little knowledge of how to regress oneself to past lives. But i have so many experiences where in astral projection entities good & bad communicate to me. Not going to lie, sometimes I am terrified but Ive grown to realize if I stand up or get angry to the ones that are threatening or trying to scare me often times they coward and I'm able to break SP quicker. I got tons of experiences and I'm excited and a little scared to find out more info lol.
 
Hi TT721,

I am also a Christian, but not so rigidly orthodox as once I was in areas related to eschatology. I'd love to discuss that side of things at some point, but for the moment, your "gift" and its results are the issue. On that, I'd start with the fact that I married a musician and our children are all musical to some degree or another. I could get into that in more depth, but the important thing is that one cannot be immersed in that field without realizing how vastly different people are in musical talent/abilities. Much of it seems to be inborn, and some are so advanced at a young age that they are referred to as prodigies.

Transferring this idea over to the current conversation, I have no way of judging where you would stand in the spectrum of gifts/talents related to out of body travel, but you certainly seem to have abilities that are far beyond the usual (without training) and that developed at an early age. However, with music, one learns very quickly that there is a lot of musical talent in any city, and soon begins to realize that there are a lot of degrees/levels of ability/talent, ranging from county level, state level, regional, national, and international level talents/abilities. So, though you certainly seem to have some natural abilities in this field, I have no idea how to place you on any spectrum of talents and abilities in the area. All I can say is that your abilities seem to be well beyond those usual in a person who has not sought and trained to achieve out of body projection type experiences.

So, at the least, you could be said to be a "natural" talent who could probably become a much stronger talent with cultivation and practice. This brings the conversation back around to past lives, as "natural" talents manifesting in a current life can often be seen as being the result of long training in a prior life or lives. This was the reason for my questions in regard to occult training in past lives. The term "occult" has a very general meaning, but is typically used in current parlance to refer to "hidden" and/or esoteric practices, studies and theories. At this point, you have no recall of any past lives or prior training, but this may change with time, and you may find that you studied such practices extensively in a prior lifetime.

In the meantime, you should probably read everything you can about out-of-body travel. I would begin with Robert Monroe as a fairly recent author and figure, but there are many more as well as older books available for free on the internet. Likewise, there are plenty of Youtube videos that you could watch. You are going to find conflicting views and presentations, so be ready for that. It will be up to you to sort through the differences in the information presented, but you seem to be positioned to do so. Meanwhile, you should probably read through some of the resources available on this website. You might want to PM Eowyn, who is one of the board's specialists in this area, and she can probably also give you some good suggestions, and correct any of my mistakes.

PS--I have to think that there is something important about that house. Could you tell whether it was very old? I could be wrong, but it seems to me that you were there for a reason.
 
Hi teetee, thanks for your reply. I feel a lot of similarities to yours but I think I may have turned off the ability at a young age from also experiencing fear. I don’t nearly have the ease as you mention and I don’t think responding in anger is the appropriate approach. I usually draw more negativity that way but often times my fear or vulnerabilities have caused me to lash out in anger. Later in life the sleep paralysis came back and I tried researching it as well. I would love to experience more and wake the abilities back up but don’t really know how. I’ve experimented with trying to bring back the episodes but no real success- they seem to happen randomly for me.

Thank you for your response!! Love the information you provided, it is very helpful. And yes, i will explore and research how to connect to find out your past lives. That seems very interesting!!

Yes this happens randomly for me also. However, sometimes I can tell when an episode is likely to occur. The atmosphere around me feels almost like static electricity when im beggining to doze off. Makes me wonder if there is some energy/being causing me to slip into SP bc i can feel the change. But often times by the time i feel the energy its too late. SP is in full effect. I haft to tell you that ive had quite a few episodes where i felt i was being sexually assaulted also. So in a sense the good comes with the bad. On a lighter note, I've had SP episodes that involve me hearing a fax machine noise or even hearing the taps much like a morse code like message is being heard in only my left ear. Which is very interesting!!! I wish i knew morse code.....maybe I'm receiving some kind of message but i dont understand it. This has only happened a few times however....

Again thanks for your response!!!
 
Hi teetee, I understand that sensation as witnessing our body enter into its rest mode while still being mentally alert. Our bodies do go into a standby mode as we enter deep sleep.
