KHWARRIOR often 'types' of transport as in cars, motorbikes, helicoptors etc can mean a journey. It can be in the physical realm or the spiritual realm if u believe in that realm.

A woman i met was bi polar. She tried to top herself, so was put in a mental health ward and kept under supervision. Each day she pretended to take her sleeping pills, but stashed them. When she had enough to kill herself, she took them. As she lay

unconscious and dying, the night duty nurse saw an open vision of this woman standing naked outside her room. She was waving/signalling her to come to her. The vision went away, the nurse checked her and saved her life. She had no more b/p symptoms again.

Ladywind, I have had an open vision and more than once and never knew what to call it until now. These occurrences of an open vision, why or how come they happen? Do you know?

I did not want to mention it to anyone in the past in the event they may think me strange or contribute it to drugs which I was not on when they occurred. I most definitly did not want to mention it to my immediate family for they may think I am losing it or would want to get me medical attention. So, this happens to other people and others are normal like me. If so, this is good to hear and know then. For, I am an intelligent person who does not do drugs nor drinks more than a few glasses of wine in a whole year, just on a special occassion or so.

Ladywind, do you know of anyone who can interpret a vision? Mine happen when I am fully awake during the day time and at all times when I am doing something that does not relate to the vision about. Do they have meaning? Where do they come from and why? What do you do with a vision too? Why did you bring it up? Can you share more on them for it seems you are collectiong stories of people who have visions. Thanks!

Also, I do not want it to sound like I have many or visions daily for I do not and have had only several in about I guess, the last twelve years or so. I would think that visions would have to stem from the subconscience or conscience mind, where else. Maybe it originates from imagination of people who are creative ... for I know I have a lot of creativity, playing a few different instruments, I sing and enjoy watercolor painting ... etc. What do you know and can share. I would like to hear and learn more for I am curious too.

I have open visions. I didnt really want this post to be about me though. My first was when i was 4 years of age. Then nothing till i was 27. They can occur to all sorts of people from spiritual sources. For me it is because i am a born again follower

TAZZOPS Would u be comfortable sharing? Khwarrior, My thoughts are that skills are learned and mastered. I think if it was a gift you will never master it. If it is chance, how could u master something that comes at random? what
No not really. flowers

An awesome blog post on the use of drugs in magic (and this applies to visions IMO).

Hi Ruth,

I checked out the link. This is what I think. My background in Botany and Biochemistry having at one time having the occupation of a Laboratory and Reseach Tech, and out of the field for many years into another plus the fact that I cook from scratch trying to eliminate consuming processed foods and yes buying herbs and using natural supplements may play a factor after reading that article.
However, I do not relate Alchemistry today as being an art of magic, that I disagree on but, in a time and era when less knowledge was known, Alchemistry did fall into the category of belief of magic i.e. potions etc.

It could be the supplements I had been using had some play, thank you. I guess I am too logical to want to accept a spiritual factor at play, and sometimes teeter-tooter to this day but then my skepticalness sways me back.

I do know too about ancient civilizations using herbs for medicinal purposes and to this day. I took a course in Christianity and World Religions at a Theological College so I am aware of what religions say about visions and for one example of the Native American Spirituality using Sweat Lodges to conjour up visions using herbs to "see" things.

Sometimes the word "mystery" is applicable and good in a sense we do not have a complete understanding but getting there. I do not like to dismiss possibilities, not other's beliefs for you never know until known.

Thank you again Ruth for poinitng me in that direction. Have a great day! flowerforyou

Yes, I thought it was an interesting article, too. I agree...I don't use substances, herbal or otherwise, to alter my mental state for the purpose of visions or magic. Well, I guess technically, I drink tea that helps relax me such as chamomile. But, chamomile doesn't alter the mind so much as it just helps relax me.

In my opinion, meditation is the best and most reliable practice for opening up my psychic abilities and creating an inner atmosphere conducive to manifesting what I want/need.

Yes, Ruth me too. I am into herbal teas and chamomile does have a calming affect :smile: .

Also too, I now have looked at and try a dozen types of meditation practises and stick to one now. Meditation for me gives me clarity of mind and a peacefulness ... it is a very good daily practise and like you have seen many benefits for a person's well-being and for good health.

You have a good day!

Thank you to everyone for being open and honest about their experiences. I don't find I have many people to talk to about the strangeness in my life; not many people can accept it. I know it is a part of who I am, and have learned to not only live with the happenings, but try to learn from them. DO I know where the visions come from? No. Do I think that there are factors that contribute? Yes. Creativity, being open to the experience, being non-judgemental. All these things are good. Also, I think some people are better receivers than others. I have very analytical people in my family, and so talking about these kinds of experiences would be be fruitless because I'd be asked to prove that these things have really happened. Sigh. I, too, am a "normal" person. I would say the persona most people see is straight-laced, positive and a good citizen. People are so much more than their appearances! It's very comforting to know that there are others out there that walk in a little different reality. :)

In terms of interpretation, a lot of it is context. I find the symbols or images I'm shown will have relevance for me that can then be translated for whomever the message is intended. For example, the open vision I had for the EMS attendant started with the face of someone I know being superimposed over his face with the idea in my hand saying I should ask him if he knew someone named "X" (the name of the person I knew). Then the images and questions just kept coming. Those were very direct and urgent for me, so there wasn't much interpreting to do. Have you tried meditating on the occurrence? You might make some connections that way.

Yay, there are other mingle 'peculiars'. Not many understand unless they are open or have experienced the same.

An open vision is like watching a scene unfold that is outside of yourself. It is not a picture in your head. I know people that have had had them and they are far from schizophrenic Where do you think they originate from? spock


I've had them, to me they are similar to a DMT trip, and since DMT is produced naturally in the brain, my best GUESS, is probably some chemical imbalance in the brain. Either DMT or some other chemical(s)...

Just my two cents.
