A little background... I am 24 years old and have a good relationship with my mom i moved out when i was 17 and since then i have not seen her much mostly just contact through emails and calls and visit a couple times a year at the most. I am not gonna get into my life story to much but we were close and she has been spiritual throughout my life and i remember her always talking about being connected and what not. I started down this path on my own with my bro mostly because of some world bubbles that got popped and really lead to trying to have a open mind about everything. (I have had some spiritual experiences that i couldnt never explain but now it seems i have a path to go down to try and understand) So its defiantly interesting that i came to a similar point that my mom has been but it seems that she has went a lot farther. I wrote her a email and linked to this thread that had my first two posts i wanted to see what she had to say about it. Well the response kinda blew me away so i will just post it here it makes me happy and i hope to connect more with her on this stuff.
My moms response
"Hi Sweetheart - no problem you didn't call - once I got your email I was content you were fine. I probably felt it that morning you had the dream like the Virg. Tech shooting.....
Ok - Astral Travel
Funny back in my teenage days (30 years ago) that’s what it was called….and then Soul Travel was more popular for years….now that name is back
Being that I’m 15 months away from 50 years old – I have a billion stories in this area (not really that many!)
Don’t you remember Adam – I’d always ask you kids when you were real young if you had flying dreams!!!!
When I was about 5 years old (maybe younger) I clearly remember almost yelling up to God – ‘Why am I here?! Why did you send me here? Did I say I wanted to come here? I want to come back!’ That had to come from inside of me – where else could it have come from…..?
In those very young years I would get these conscious flashes of being way way out in the universe where there was nothing….wondering what the heck everything was about. (I came to think that was when there was just God. No planets, people etc…)
My first Astral experience was when I was about 11 or 12. It was so lucid you can remember every detail for life. I was falling asleep (it will always happen right on the verge of sleep) I fell out of bed then floated to the ceiling. Then I realized my body was catatonic – tried to move my fingers - anything -and couldn’t. Any fear or strong emotion snaps you back into your body. A few more happened and then when I was 18 living in Vancouver BC with a girlfriend I was told about all the books. I read them all and couldn’t believe others had the exact same experiences. I’d always felt different from my family like I was adopted or something – this made that feeling stronger.
Learning about the silver cord connecting your soul body to the physical body is important. Some see it – I haven’t. I just love the huge rush feeling as it starts to happen – I smile and go with it and in a second I’m traveling at a million miles an hour to who knows where. The experiences that are on our physical realm like your apartment are cool – but there are so many other realms way cooler. I went to this Blue place once…oh my word – what a feeling of bliss. Once when I was pregnant with Jayna I traveled through my horrid varicose veins….. I’ve gone to the moon – traveled over Semiamhoo Bay -all kinds of experiences.
I started looking for how to control it since I was 17 – first I had to control the fear and learn I could float through walls…..that is a tough one.
Eventually I came to know that through meditation you can bring on the most incredible experiences. After many many workshops and many books I did succeed so that I could go places at will. Once it was the hell realm – very very weird. I haven’t felt fear and there is no linear time when you go places through meditation.
Learning to wrap myself in God’s protective shield of white light before sleep or meditation is very important – VERY! (there are evil forces in these realms)
Meditation is not easy – it takes a lot of time and dedication….. I only had that ability before my MS – since then I’ve fallen away from the discipline and haven’t had too many experiences.
Ok – this is the weirdest Adam – are you ready? …..at one point I was in touch with my guardian angels – I knew their names. Then I could allow other angels to speak through me…. No kidding. I stopped after the MS – a couple of suspicious thing happened where I thought a bad energy got in…. It most likely wasn’t related but I stopped anyway…..
The rush that comes before you travel is normally from two places- your crown chakra – top of the head or heart chakra….. (that’s me) the energy builds up there and whoooosh it goes out and you’re flying.
There ya go – weird mamma hey?
Love you xoxoxo (very cool that you are writing for that community Adam
