Welcome,
I'm Sabine Priestley,
And today I'm going to weave some personal experience with dreams into the fabric of the beautiful Dreamspace music track created by the oh-so-talented duo known as WAKES.
Somewhere early on in my meditation journey,
I was told not to meditate in bed.
It was,
I think it was presented like,
That just doesn't count.
So for the past three-plus years,
I have not.
But then,
A little over a year ago,
I tripped over a rather marvelous aspect of that place between asleep and awake.
Turns out it's a powerful state in which to create.
If anyone has told you not to meditate in bed,
I say go for it.
I'll share with you a recent experience.
I've been playing with the phenomena of astral projection.
That's basically placing our consciousness somewhere other than where we are.
Now,
Not wanting to do a deep dive on this,
But instead being willing to accept the wisdom of my energy body,
I began to experiment.
Instead of reading books and all the researching that I would normally do,
One morning I was playing with the idea of rolling my consciousness with or without a perception of my body,
As I've done both before.
So I was trying to roll my consciousness out of my body.
I rolled left and then right and left and then right.
Not my body,
Of course,
Just my intention to relocate my consciousness again and again and again.
After some time,
I did it,
And I found myself humorously with my virtual face.
I didn't really have a face,
Right?
So more specifically,
My vision was about an inch from the ceiling.
I was looking at the ceiling,
To be clear.
And yeah,
It was funny as I struggled to gain control of my what.
I remember thinking that,
Of my what.
I'm not sure.
I wasn't sure in that moment.
So I tried to go through the ceiling without any luck.
And that too was amusing because whatever state my consciousness was in,
It was not in that physical body.
And I think these are just limitations of the mind,
Which I'm super keen to keep exceeding more and more and more.
Anyways,
I finally got myself positioned in a vertical orientation,
As it were,
And I was able to move to the windows.
And for some reason that worked.
I found myself looking around.
It was quite broad daylight.
And I was looking around at unfamiliar houses.
And I was thinking,
Okay,
I need to go higher.
I need to get higher to see where I am.
And it was just so clear,
Crystal clear,
This neighborhood,
Just not my neighborhood.
And it was on the edge of nature space.
There was a lake in the distance,
Off to the right.
And there's a lot of green foliage.
And one remarkable thing was there was a lot of long-stemmed red flowers growing,
A rather dense patch also off to my right.
They weren't roses.
They were more like tulips,
The way they just popped up out of the ground.
Anyways,
To my left was a dog trotting down this road.
And it looked like a friendly Rottweiler.
I wasn't worried about it at all.
And as he drew near to me,
I could sense his nose on my energy hand,
Which of course is weird,
But there it is.
Anyways,
I then decided to go and find someone to ask them,
Where was I?
And there was this,
Looked like an apartment complex,
Not too tall,
Maybe only two or three stories.
And I floated over to it.
And there I saw a woman.
And I remember that it was,
It was funny because she looked a little,
A little cartoony as opposed to a real woman.
Like that dog was perfectly real.
Anyways,
I asked her,
Where was I?
And a man's voice answered.
He replied something,
Something Glenn or something Dale.
I don't remember the exact word.
Unfortunately,
I would have loved to look it up,
But then I could see the man and he looked perfectly real.
He was my age ish,
Salt and pepper gray,
A little bit on the portly side.
And so next I said,
This is going to sound weird,
But not actually here.
My body is back home in bed.
And he was really excited about that.
He said he had a friend that was really into this kind of thing.
Now we spoke a little bit longer before I woke up or came back.
The impression that I had was that I had connected with someone or something on the energy level.
That was really strong.
The connection felt legitimate,
If you will.
So this was one of those experiences that transcends.
It was,
Was not quite a lucid dream.
I didn't phrase it in my experience as a dream when I was doing this.
I was thinking of it more as an astral projection,
But then there was definitely a dreamlike quality,
Especially with that girl.
She's seemed like a cartoon.
If you're listening to this,
You're probably on your own journey of growth and discovery.
Let this be a gentle reminder to wear the world lightly as you play with all of the energetics and dimensions now available to all of us.
And I believe that more and more are coming online that we can have access to more and more of these higher and multi-dimensional spaces to play and create in.
I've had the most extraordinary experiences with lucid dreaming over the span of my life.
I have faced my personal darkness and flown through the rings of Saturn.
I have to say the rings of Saturn were a little disappointing.
They were just all shades of gray and not at all like the pretty pictures I grew up with.
We live in such an amazing time.
I know it can seem all chaos right now,
But out of chaos comes creation.
As we do the work,
As we continually play with elevating our personal bioenergetics,
We're able to tap into higher and higher dimensional aspects of our reality.
So I'm asking you to play in your dreams and in that in-between state.
Let your imagination soar for this is a doorway of creating a new reality.
I have a growing number of meditations available to help you play with your energy body and then further your growth and I hope you'll check them out.
In the meantime,
For the rest of this track,
Dream on my loves,
Dream on.
