IE sucks! ;D Sorry Ronni, but it's true. OK, OK, I guess I'll check it out in IE one of these days. I have to go in there to change my profile anyhow

OK you guys, my dreams have been INTENSE! Some interesting themes going on like my husband having other wives and stuff. I guess the reason they are interesting is because they are very consistent. Stuff actually is starting to make sense from one dream to the next. Wow, I need to write this down, so I have more details on me.
Derek...hitting a deer this week was of course a sign for me, not necessarily my power animal, but animal messenger. Also, I had dreams before about tigers and moutain lions. I think those ARE my power animals. That and they represent the power aspect of me. And of course, spiders provide great spiritual guidance for me. They start appearing if I drift too far from my dream work. They bit me in one dream, where I then went into a special state and became lucid. Speaking of lucidity, I had another lucid one! I know that's a bit inconsistent, but point is, they are starting to come. Out of all things, I was naked and that's why I realized I was dreaming. I'm like your copycat, Derek. Wasn't that one of your dreams too? Anyhow, I started yelling at my dream character that I'm dreaming and he was making weird faces at me, and it snapped me out of the dream state. I was sort of testing if he was real or if he was just a character. He was definitely a character.

Hey guys, I thought I'd bring this subject up for everyone to discuss. I have access to some .com domains for $1 each right now. I already have a hosting plan, that can have unlimited domains on it. So what do you guys think about migrating to dot com? Most importantly, of course, it's up to Ronni. I can buy the domain and hand it over though. I think WordPress has a forum widget or plug-in or whatever they are called, so that won't be a problem. Downside is of course that it's a bit like starting over. Not sure if there is a way to redirect traffic from here. On the plus side, members who really do want to be here and be active, will sign on again. Another plus side is that we can actually put in our own ads, if we wanted to. We could advertise cool stuff, like helpful books from amazon on dreams and hemi-sync CDs Also, blog from there would be really easy to do. Anyhow, it's mainly up to Ronni, so. Otherworld.com is not available, if anyone is wondering, but OtherWorldForum dot com is Anyway, it's just a fun idea. There is quite a bit you can do with WordPress now.

I do really like the free e-book, that I recommended in my link, Ronni. Her whole thing is, well sure, manifesting is nice, but we gotta bring it through our actions. Wow, summarizing makes it sound really cliche. I've had lots of insights reading and listening to her. She is like an energy worker with a business sense, if you know what I mean. Sure, I do feel sometimes some of her services are expensive, like her Soul Realignment course (which I will totally take once I have money for it). I do think people, who can charge that much money sort of operate on that level and can attract people, who can easily afford that kind of money. I mean, she also gives away pretty good free info, so I think it's all good and fair. And I know quite a few intuitives, who while charging high prices, also have some kind of way that they give their services away, like doing free short readings for people or drawing names for people to win their services, etc. Hey, ya know, if something works well, I'll let you know

I don't really know if he'll be OK. I called 911 and the said they were sending out an officer to take a look. I wanted to stay, but I had a hungry fussy baby at home waiting. So I prayed for the best and went on my way. He couldn't get up, but he wasn't laying down either. He was holding his head up and sort of half sitting. IF they will decide to take him and nurse him back to health and release him, yes, he'll be OK, but that is a big if. I just don't know. As much as I love our car and it's our most priced possession, I didn't even look at it at first, until the other person who stopped asked. It has a very small dent I think, although I still didn't take a good look. I saw him walk out, so I slammed on my breaks, but I was going too fast to stop entirely or slow down enough not to make any damage I went over it in my head considering what I could do differently. If anything I needed to have my brights on. I do question if it's some sort of sign...There must at least be a meaning to it.

I was coming home from class and hit a huge buck walking out right in the middle. I was terrified. I felt so incredibly sad for him. He was so big and beautiful. Wish I could have changed it. I considered not going to my class, and almost regret that I didn't decide to stay home. It was so sad to watch him on the side of the road. I hope, despite the odds, that he makes it....I called 911 to get somebody to come take a look at him and I drove away, since I had a hungry baby waiting for me at home. It was very sad

Just curious, what do you all think on the topic of manifesting money? Is money something you think about often? How does it influence the way you do things? Obviously, Secret was huge, but a lot of more spiritually-minded folk had a criticism that it was aimed too much at bringing in possessions into your life, rather than going to the heart of the matter. I think that heart of the matter is that we are spiritual beings and the implication is that we are Divine. We are creators. We are all infinitely abundant. Then why does money come up as an issue at all? Why so many times we use money as a decision-making force or, to put it another way, why do we use money as an excuse?
Lately, I'm shifting more focus towards creating more conscious financial abundance in my life. I'm sooo tired of being a free healer ha ha That's the only way I can really put it. I know a lot of you guys are in a similar boat. If I'm a Divine being, going on vacation because I have no money is a very stupid excuse from a higher perspective. From a human perspective it still holds and only way to fix that, from logical viewpoint, is to do something to bring money about. So I guess, what I'm saying here, it takes a combination of both to work, steps in real world that can bring in things we want AND working on beliefs/raising energy level.
All right, I stole that approach from someone I've been listening to recently.
I'll go post a link to her stuff in the link section. I signed up as an affiliate, which was interesting to me because normally I don't get paid for recommending things I like, but why not? So tell me what you guys think.

All right, I posted more about this in the Money Manifesting thread. I'll just say here that she has a free e-book on her site, that you can get by entering your e-mail in. It is really an interesting read and made lots of bulbs go off in my head. It's more like a pamphlet though than a full sized book, but info is really good. She also has intuitive training program, called Soul Realignment, that I've been really really looking into for the past couple of years. Major attraction to me is training to look into your acashic records. Anyhow, there it is: tinyurl.com/empoweredlena

My personal update is that I figured out that because I'm learning so much and processing so much information during the day, my brain stays very busy at night, processing surface stuff. I really think it's keeping me from going deeper right now, which is all right by me. It's a phase and it too will pass.
I had a really strange dream right before I woke up from a nap today. It was *cough* very graphic and odd. I also had a dream that I lost my baby in the couch universe lol Like my baby got all tiny and fell through the cracks and then I had to go after him, making myself all tiny. I know right, it's weird.

{ RESET }Ch. 4 Nov 15-Nov 22 OK, guys, I'm pressing a reset button, since I feel confused about where we should be in the process, since I got off track. So my reset button means I'm starting TODAY with the next chapter. If you have a problem with that, blame my pendulum. Yes, I actually consulted my guides on better way to go about this. Sorry to those, who are way ahead. I say, don't hold back, if you want to read! I don't think we are making our discussion so chapter specific, that you will be confused. If you want, start your own post. Name it "Nani's experience on Chapter 4." Then we can incorporate it into our general chapter discussion. Whatever will get some expiences and conversations going.

Yeah, Derek, that's the plan. I never claimed to be the most organized lol
On that note, if someone wants to start a new chapter thread because you have comments to post and I'm running behind, you are welcome to.
Let me see if I can release some energy from other activities for dreaming. It has been really crazy for me really, and today has been a low point for me. I felt depressed and kids were driving me absolutely insane. Thing is, Joe injured his knee at work. He walks around with crutches. That means that almost all kid care and supervision is entirely on me, 24 hours a day, which can be tough. I need to catch up on my computer programming homework this week. Plus, I'm working on a couple of projects, that I have been putting off forever. So I don't know what I can drop. Kids? lol I hope I can be busy and manage energy work at the same time. There is this hair saloon ad with different girls with red, blue, green and purple hair up on top right now, that seems very distracting.

Sorry guys, I got distracted. Gotta get myself back on track. Technically, we are supposed to do Ch. 5 tomorrow, but since I've been slacking, do you guys mind if we keep on going with Ch. 4?
Love you all!

What's DMAE?? One aid I have used is brainwave entertainment CDs. Those help to put your brain on certain wavelength. They really do work, but of course an outside aid will only take you so far. I haven't experienced with any herbs, although I find it curious that Seth (Jane Roberts) books mentions that eating eggs and asparagus will help with out-of-body travel. There was a tip somewhere around the forum about eating a baked potato before bed too. Too busy to link right now, but maybe I'll dig it out later. Oh I looked DMAE up on wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DimethylethanolamineReally interesting, thanks for pointing it out. It said that natural sources are oily fish especially Wild Alaskan Salmon and sardines. Hmm...fish oil has benefits of improving moods. I wonder if there is any connection there at all.

Very cool! I really like the brief history of lucid dream, great link too! thanks Welcome back, pitchblend!! I know you've here before but I noticed you just got back. Thanks for bringing up this thread. I looked around that website a bit. I guess it was founded by Stephen LaBerge and it looks like it has a lot of solid tips and information. Guess I gotta add one more thing to my reading list.

My remembering dreaming has increased a lot this week. Now I need for the details of the dreams to be remembered more. Most of them have been doing different things with several people involved, maybe it is with you all. Me too Linda! I have so many more companions now in my dreams. It's really quite enjoyable to have all that company

So I have to admit, that I start reading and that put it down because there is so much to it. Here are some concepts I love:
1. Going back inside the dream. I already posted asking a question about this somewhere. This is really fascinating stuff, especially the way he explains how it helps one clarify what the meaning of the dream is about. I have read a lot of psychology type advice about role playing. Like asking your fear what it wants to tell you. This could take it to a whole different level. I think I mentioned it somewhere before, but most of my dreams are not literal...I feel that if I had a literal dream, I may be a little scared because they just do not happen for me. I have ones, where I look ahead, so to speak, but none of them are scenes from awake life.
2. There is a message in your dream, that you need to know for your daily life. OK, now I do like this concept, but I have to mention that I do believe dreams have their own validity. For example, a healing dream might have a message, but what if you forget it? Does it mean it's not healing anymore? I believe that it still had the desired effect. Of course, as with anything, the more conscious we become, the more advanced we become. However, I do believe all of us are dream masters already.
Quick dream: We are on a island, lost somewhere, kind of like the show Lost. Ha! We CAN though keep contact with outside world on some radio. The woman tells us we are ranked very high, like 48th place (I don't know for what). One girl in our group wants to give up on something we are putting effort into, but collectively, we decide that we are better off to keep going. Funny, it's 9pm right now and I didn't write this dream down, when I woke up, but as I was typing, it kind of came back. I'm posting this here because I thought it had to do with the forum.
Does anyone else feel like we are getting together? Like when I think of some of you, I feel more familiarity now, than a couple of weeks earlier, like you are around or something.

In answer to your question, Derek, I do have plenty going on right now, that I have hard time focusing on dream life, but that's good because in the past I would tend to withdraw from my other activities. I think learning to balance between spiritual life and outer life is what's it's all about.
