Just experienced one last night, like three layers of a dream, but then was it a dream? I went to bed around 11 pm, and I think fell asleep by 11:30. I, in my dream dreamt that I entered my room to go to sleep, and hopped in to bed and fell asleep, but being awake conscious of a dream. I tried to turn the night lamp on but for some reason it wouldn't work. I then realised I couldn't press the switch as my hand goes through it. So I suddenly wake up and jump up in bed. Some force pushed me and I fell on the side of the bed. As I got up, I saw my self sleeping in bed. Next minute I'm back in me, and then finally woke up. Strange one......

You stole the words out of my mouth. The only difference is they are my real twilight zones if that's what you want to call it. I sometimes feel exhausted after these various experiences, it's like doing night shift whilst sleeping, and then I get up to go to work.

Wow, you have similar experiences like mine. I've been like this from a young age. Probably starting from when I was 3 years old, and then onwards. My mother and her mother could also sense or see things that were paranormal. About five months ago I saw a huge ufo pass over me whilst driving a car on a crossroad. I had a strong headache for about a week after that. Then started shadows again appearing in my bedroom from cats, to hearing sounds of goats and loud whistles in my ear when just to fall asleep. Crackling sounds in the middle of the room towards the ceiling, and so on. I tell them to get out of my room, and go back where they came from (but not in a nice manner) I don't show them fear.

Well apparently after all these years the Rollingstones are putting out a new album, which should be released soon. I heard it's very bluesy, and I'm not sure is it a compilation of other artists songs. Gotta but it, love them. Now I also liked Deep Purple, child in time, smoke on the water...Nirvana also very good. Patty Smiths albums Easter and Horses. Does any one remember Alvin Lee and 10 years after, I thought they we're awesome. I'm not gonna mention all fazes of Janis Joplin as I just love her. I also like Joe Cocker.

Sometimes I experience astral travels. I often wonder is it a parallel universe that I'm in or a past life experience. I tend to often go to a few same places where I meet these people that I know and they know me. Our conversations or work continues from where it stopped the last time. It's very strange. I replied to this topic in some other posts. All I can say is quoting Fox Moulder (X files) The Truth Is Out There. I read in a book by , I think his name was Carl Benedict "parallel worlds, truth or fiction" back in the 80's how in the UK a man used to get up every Saturday morning dressed in his dressing gown, goes down to the local news agency to by the papers, and goes home. Every one knew him in the local community. One Saturday on his way to the news agency he disappears in thin air. No body knew what happened to him or where he went. His wife reported him missing, etc. a few years later out of the blue, he reappears dressed in his dressing gown to by the papers. The man at the store said to him, where have you been all these years. This totally surprised the man, as he thought that he just left his home to get the papers. When he saw the date on the news papers he was in shock. The theory to this was that he must have entered a portal of some sort unknowingly. Where, how, what, nobody has an answer, and he had no memory. There was also a story of a lady a few months ago on YouTube, when I was reading about quantum jumping, it popped up. She claims to come from a parallel universe, and cannot return back to her own world. Which is also planet Earth. She woke up one morning to find herself wearing a different pyjama, and different bed linen in her flat where she lived. The story goes on about her workplace etc....very interesting. Check it up, I'll have to find the link if I can and post it.

I agree with what you say. In today's world a lot of people are choosing not to believe. We know who's work that is, of the devil himself. God is real as is the devil. I once had this lucid dream, and just to make it clear, I don't take drugs, nor was I under the influence of alcohol. It was sometime back in 1996 I think. I dreamt that I am walking down an extremely crowded street. People appeared to be in panic, running away in the opposite direction of where I was heading. And then I saw him. He Satan was standing tall with his vivid intense greenish yellowish eyes, staring at me. It's like he recognised me. I said to him that I knew who he was. He replied to me telepathically that if I told the people who he was, that he would take pleasure in killing me. I replied back to him saying that I am not afraid of him, and that I would do anything in my power to warn the people of his presence and existence. Which I started doing. I must had been shouting in my sleep, as I woke my self up. As I was awakening I clearly felt and sort of saw a whirlpool of wind in my room, that shot out through my closed window. Since then in my reality of life I have come across people who I've felt had some form of a demonic energy or possession in them, and also encountered people with good angelic energies. This is all real. I started having astral trips back in 1990, and onwards. I don't have control when they happen, but through out the years I gained control when I'm in them, and I always call on the help of my guardian angels, Jesus as I'm Christian, and God. I always declare that I join the army of archangel Michael and join his army to fight evil. I don't tell many people this, so I act pretty much solo. I have recently met an older man who I befriended as he is with similar experiences to mine. One has to be careful with astral travelling, out of body experiences as there are shadows lurking in the dark. I use a lot of protection prayers. I hope this helps.

I have 3 records LP of Joan Baez, she has an amazing voice, I liked her album that I had singing in Spanish, like guantanamera, also diamonds and rust duet with Bob Dylan, a compilation cd live from the heart - the night they drove old Dixie down. What about The Band, Neil Young songs like heart of gold and old man. The doors my favourite is Indian Summer, moonlight drive, five to one, Alabama song, hyacinth house.....Again, one could go on, remember Melanie Safka and her brand new key. Jimi Hendrix oh what a legend example love hey joe, voodoo child, purple haze. Joe Cocker, Jimmy Winter.........Talking heads I liked a lot of there songs from once in a life time to wild wild life. So many memories. Cheers mate, nice chatting to you

I can pick up on other people's emotions without being in their presence, but I've learned how to distinguish mine from theirs. With some people you might connect on a deeper level and feel them. An easy exercise to do is to, when you feel an emotion, to recognise who are the first people you think off. Visualise them strongly in your mind, one person at a time of course. In your visualisation let them stand 1 meter in front of you, facing you and looking straight into your eyes, as you look in to their eyes for ten seconds.Then, without thinking much, move to the next picture of that person like watching a slide show. What do you see them doing,etc. when their are no more images that spontaneously come to you, go to the next person. The more you practise, the more you get better in understanding the emotions. Cheers

In my younger years when I used to watch amongst all other things Star Trek voyager, I remember that captain Janeway also gave explanations to the paradox of parallel universes. I did quantum jumping meditation on parallel universes. It was interesting. Maybe there are multiple earths, on which our double, triple, quadriplegic selves live different lives. Maybe on one earth Hitler won the Second World War, on another earth Kennedy wasn't assassinated , then imagine different social structures or governments all together. Are we awake really, or a product of somebody else's dream. I remember an old saying I read somewhere about a man who dreamt he was a dolphin, but when he woke up he wasn't sure was he a dolphin who dreamt that he was a man. Our eyes only see the earth we walk on, and yet the heavens are calling us to look up at the stars. When I was around 15 years old I read the book titled The Little Prince, it was very interesting, as well as The Alchemist. I believe that when we were kids we could see far more, it's the adults who taught us not to see, but to be controlled. Cheers

Janos is my queen. Then I like The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, then we move a bit forward to Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Animals, Credence, .....Sweet, Status Quo, .....Fleetwood Mac....in the 80's I liked the Talking Heads, Prince, Queen, David Bowie, Eurythmics, ....Enigma....Today I like listening to Pink, Amy Winehouse, Gwen Stefani, and some others, however the music has died, and there is a lot of commercialised rubbish with big names. The odd ones in the time of clubbing: Venga boys, Ace of Base,....they cheered me up with their dance pop anthems. But I prefer the blues, and some jazz BB King, Billie Holiday. Oh there are so many.... , so many I can't think....it's hot in Australia today

Janis Joplin, the quintessential misfit, the first white female blues and rock singer. A total legend, who's tragic life has touched many, and her spirit lives till today. She has influenced many rock singers such as Suzi Quarto, Patty Smith, Melissa Etheridge, Blondie, Pink, Stevie Tyler, Robert Plant.....just to mention a few. She influenced my generation when growing up in the 70'a and 80'A.D. She died in 1970 @ the age of 27.

I once worked as a student nurse in a hospital in Europe. I was on the second floor, neurology ward, looking after 4 patients, of whom one was totally legally blind. The blind man would often talk about his skills to sharpen his other senses he had left. He would know if somebody had long hair, or if a man had a beard or moustache. He said he could clearly hear the sounds. One day he was saying that he also practised telepathy. I didn't think much of it. I thought he was full of crap. One day I was sent to the 6th floor for approximately two hours, to assist with an emergency. As I headed to that ward, I first stopped by to check on my four patients, including the blind man. They all said they were fine, didn't need anything, as I was explaining to them that I'll be back in 2. The blind man said to me, if I need you I'll call you. Again, didn't think much of it. I went to the sixth floor onto a different ward, about an hour later as I was walking down this long corridor, I clearly heard his voice in my head, in my ear, calling my name. I was shocked as I could not explain this. I went down to the second floor, and went straight in to the room, where my four male patients were. I asked had anyone called me. They all started laughing pointing at the blind man. Apparently he told them that he would call me telepathically, and for them to wait and see would I come. I said to him that I heard his voice in my head. He laughed and said, I told you I practise telepathy, now you believe. I told him that it scared the **** out of me. He said that he could connect with me easy as I'm not blocked. I know that it was true, as I am very open to the paranormal, and am a clairessentian.

I agree with what you say. I also believe that there could be layers to our universe. Who's to say that as big and important we think we are, that maybe someone else is observing us under a microscope. Just like we observe micro organisms. And yet, what we see far beyond in the skies with modern technology and telescopes, different galaxies, including our own milky way, might just be blood cells in a vein to something more gigantic. I shouldn't be thinking of this, it will give me a headache. We know so little, or perhaps know nothing. :-)

I've experienced them too. It can be fun, or a not nice experience, when it comes to astral travel, as for lucid dreams, I can distinguish between the two. I also get good insight in to my higher self, and am at times able to control certain things in my dreams.

Check out on you tube Quantum Jumping, there's a guy who instructs you how to do a quantum jump meditation. Apparently you experience parallel universes. There have been stories about people from parallel universes who quantum jumped into our exsistence

I went to bed one night. I was feeling great. Lived by myself in this old house I mentioned in one of my previous posts. I remember reading a light book before I decided to turn my lamp of. My cat Charlie was lying on the edge of my bed. Around 2 in the morning I was awoken by hearing noises in my living room, some chattering and footsteps. I turned the lamp on and went to investigate, but found nothing visible. I left my lamp on as I went back to bed. Just as I comfortably positioned myself I felt that somebody sat on my bed. I could feel that weight as I sunk into the bed a bit. I looked and saw a tall blonde man sitting at the edge of my bed just staring at me. He looked unusual, very tall with piercing eyes hazelish in colour. He spoke to me, what I perceived as telepathically, saying not to be afraid. I shouted at him as I was scared, asking him how did he get in my house, my room, and I was asking him to leave. He told me that he wanted to have sex with me, as that is what I wanted. Then he appeared right next to me naked, lying beside me. He wanted me to take my clothes of ( t shirt and undies). As much as I struggled not to undress, he overpowered me with his thoughts, and I unvoluntarily took everything of. He turned on to his stomached, and told me to hop on top of him and to sexually penetrate him. I was fighting not to, trying with every inch of my body to resist his commands. It was like I had absolutely no control, and he was in charge of me. It was very powerful what ever this person, this thing had with his mind. I felt myself going into him. At one point I managed to break free, and managed to jump of the bed. I started shouting at this man or demon to get the F... Out of my room, I started kicking him out, my full strength came back. He quietly walked out of my room, as I watched, he disappeared in thin air in my living room. I was in shock. Couldn't go back to sleep. I felt traumatised. Something had breached me, my being and body. Even though I am gay, I thought maybe a shape shifting alien. I don't know but it was wiered. As he or it was disappearing I heard the voice say: I will be back. That really freaked me out.

I believe in different levels and realms. Some conspiracy theorists talk about shape shifters amongst us, so called reptilians, and others. I know of a meditation I was tought sitting in a group circle. In part of the meditation you visualise four pillars, each representing east, west, north and south, each connected to the four elements earth, air, fire, water, and then each to transform in to one of the archangels: Michael, Uriel, Raphael and Gabriel. This was a form of shape shifting. Demons can shapeshifter, Angels can do the same. Some animals appear out of know where to just like that, in a microsecond disappear. Our lives shape shift through out the years. Interesting....

I know a few protection prayers that I use. Sometimes I will even play church prayers and chants loudly whilst burning sandalwood and frankincense or safe. It helps. But I worry about the sceptical people who think that demons can be played with. Especially in a recent post on incubus and succubus, one guy wishes to meet it as they never experiences one. These forces are real and around us. Next time I log on I'll tell you a true story of what happened to me around six years ago. I had many experiences. I'm an indigo who works with white light. I give and bring positive energy. They (demons) hate me, but are drawn to me like moths to a light. And even if I don't see them, I sense their presence in people around me, who might be oblivious to the fact.

My brother in law past away 4 weeks ago. My niece went to her fathers funeral, leaving her two and a half year daughter in the care of her mother ( my sister). My niece travelled with her brother my nephew to Europe to attend the funeral. Two weeks before there return back to Australia, my niece asked her mother to take a few photos of the little one - the 2 and a half year old, and send it to her via mobile phone. My sister took the photos and sent them off. As we were looking at the photos, we noticed in the background was my nieces car parked in front of the house, but there was someone sitting in the car looking at the little girl. When we enlarged the photo, it was the apparition of my brother in law, clearly looking at his granddaughter. We were in shock and disbelief. My niece and nephew also saw it in the photo. It was obvious to all of us that after the funeral, he came to see his granddaughter in the form of a spirit.

Sorry for a few spelling mistakes, I was typing fast. But you'll understand.
