Nocturnal Adventures
An article from the October 2014 issue of THE STAR BEACON
by Owen Waters
Other than a few
remembered dreams, our night-time slumbers seem to be one big twilight zone of
consciousness where nothing much happens at all ... Nothing could be further
from the truth!
A curtain of
forgetfulness is drawn across our consciousness each time we awake from sleep.
What really happens at night is actually more vivid, more alive, and more real
than anything that happens during the day in the physical world.
At night, we travel in a
more subtle world than the physical one. Human consciousness has many “bodies,”
or shells of consciousness, each of which functions at a different level of
awareness.
The more dense bodies
used by each human being are the physical body, its etheric energy counterpart,
and the astral or spirit body. The less dense ones begin with the soul “body,”
which is a nonphysical field of consciousness that exists beyond the limitations
of time and space, and then go on up the frequency scale of consciousness from
there.
To understand where these
bodies fit into the grand scale of universal consciousness, realize that there
are 12 density layers of consciousness. Some people refer to the different
density layers as "dimensions."
As physical beings today,
we exist in third density and are in the process of transitioning into fourth
density. Fourth density has been traditionally the home of the spirit realms. It
still will be after The Shift to higher consciousness has been completed, but
the spirit realms will move up to higher sub-layers within fourth density as the
physical realm moves in.
The spirit realms are
referred to in the plural as there are many sub-layers of consciousness within
fourth density. The spirit or astral realms are also known as the afterlife.
They vary from the lower astral realms, through the highly populated middle
realms, and on into the higher astral realms or heavens.
When you pass on from the
physical realm, as we all do eventually, you will find yourself located in the
exact spirit realm that corresponds to your normal frequency of consciousness.
If you have strong issues to resolve, they will hold you back a little until you
have worked through them by a process of integration.
The whole experience of
the afterlife is dedicated to the integration of whatever issues of separation
were generated during a person's physical lifetime. If they became polarized
against a particular person, i.e., grew to hate them, then they will learn to
see the situation from a higher perspective and heal that issue of separation
through the forgiveness of themselves and the other person.
Then, as the healing of
any issues occurs, they rise higher in consciousness within the spirit world.
The mentality of 3D (the
third density physical world) is separative in nature and 4D (the fourth density
spirit world) is integrative, or healing, in nature. 3D resonates to the human
solar plexus energy center, with its mental development and its competitive
nature, while 4D resonates to the heart.
The higher aspect of
heart consciousness is the first stage of spiritual awareness. It is here that,
as a principle, the good of the many is recognized as being more important than
immediate benefits to the self. This leads to a sense of service where the
person wants to help ensure that the best is available to everyone.
This is the foundation of
a world which is supportive rather than competitive. In such a world there
really is more for everyone; much more, because the energy that was spent in
competition against others is now funneled into productive work.
At night, when you leave
the awareness of your physical body behind, it is not because your brain has
shut down for the night. It is because your attention has shifted into your
spirit body. Your spirit body rises out of your physical body and prepares to
begin your nocturnal adventures.
A curtain of
forgetfulness is drawn across our consciousness each time we awake from sleep.
Because our night-time
adventures typically occur in the fourth-density spirit world, which is a more
subtle realm than our third-density physical world, our nocturnal activities are
more vivid, more alive, and more real than anything that occurs during the day.
Because the spirit world
is where the population of the afterlife lives, you often meet friends and
relatives there who have passed on from the physical world. Night time can be a
wonderful time of reunion with such dear friends, so it’s well worth making the
effort to increase your dream recall ability.
Your spirit body
naturally resonates to the spirit world. Once freed from the physical shell each
night as your physical body falls asleep, it will normally move upwards from the
physical third-density world towards the light of the fourth-density spirit
world.
Upon arriving, you will
notice extra light everywhere -- it fills the air and it radiates outwards from
solid objects. This is because material in the spirit realms is made of etheric
energy, which is a higher energy than the electric energy that forms physical
matter.
The air in the spirit
world is filled with etheric energy, ready to be drawn into some useful form by
the intent of any individual. People in the afterlife can build a new home just
as fast as they can visualize every part of it. It will stay in existence as
long as they pay it occasional attention.
If they want a little
variety in the appearance of their new home, they can even redecorate it every
day! If they leave and move elsewhere, the house will slowly dissolve, over a
period of months, back into the atmosphere as etheric energy.
The fact that people who
live in the spirit realms create homes does not exclude you, the temporary
night-time visitor, from doing the same. In fact, having a private retreat
somewhere in the spirit world is a wonderful help in recovering from the
stresses of daytime physical living. There is plenty of space in the spirit
world for you to find a quiet, private location for your retreat.
One of the curious
properties of the spirit world is that you can actually create your own space,
fill it with objects of your own design, and it will be something that no one
else would perceive unless they tuned into your thought pattern as the creator
of that scene. It can even be large enough to include your own idea of an ocean
scene with a perfect, setting sun.
It won't be the actual
Sun; it'll just be your own, private, artistic creation built for your own
enjoyment, and it will last for as long as you pay occasional attention to it.
The spirit or astral body
is quasi-physical. This means that, while it is subtle and etheric compared to
the physical body, it is still solid in its own environment. In the spirit
realms of 4D, matter is composed of etheric energy and is solid to the touch. If
you bump into another spirit or astral body on your travels, they will seem
solid, just like bumping into another person in the physical world.
The fact that spirit
matter is less dense than physical matter gives you a lot more freedom of
movement. You can meet a friend halfway around the world in one or two seconds
of travel time, just by projecting your spirit body to that new location. You
tune into that person and, wherever they are, mentally project, and you will
appear at that location.
A simple intention is all
it takes to decide what each night's adventure can be. Then, upon awakening,
you’re halfway to remembering what happened.
So far, we have examined
the possibilities for nocturnal adventures where you can:
1. Go and see friends and
relatives who have either passed on or, just like you, are temporarily
out-of-body for the night.
2. Notice how the 4D air
is full of energy and materialize solid objects either just for fun or for
artistic development.
3. Find a piece of land
away from it all and build a small retreat there.
4. Decide who or where to
go and see in a distant location, gather your intent, and project there
instantly.
Remember this …
The challenge is to remember such adventures. Intent is the key. Tell yourself,
"Tonight, I intend to (have this adventure) and I will remember it upon
awakening."
Keep a notebook and pen
right beside your bed and some source of light (even a flashlight will do.) Get
in the habit of recalling dreams as soon as you awake and writing down
everything you can. You've just returned from another world to a brain that's
had the night off, so those memories will begin to fade fast as soon as you wake
up. Seconds count in writing down those dream details.
Realize that the
immediate dream state is shallow compared to full immersion in the spirit world.
The easiest dreams to recall are the ones that occur when you are almost ready
to wake up. They are typically dramatic scenes filled with symbols that help you
integrate the stresses that you have felt in previous days.
The key to understanding
them is to ask what each symbol means to you emotionally. Then, you’ll
understand the stress that was being worked out in the dream, or the message
that your inner being was bringing to the surface for your attention.
As you become more
practiced in dream recall, you will soon reach beyond the initial dream state
and remember the deeper, real-life experiences that you have each night in the
spirit world.
The good news is that
today, due to ongoing effect of The Shift, the veil is thinning between the 3D
physical world and the 4D spirit world. As each year passes, people are
remembering more and more upon awakening. You may sometimes find yourself
between wakefulness and sleep, and you are really not sure which state you are
in.
Today, this is quite
common, due to the thinning of the veil. As The Shift continues, and physical
matter will move fully into 4D, there will be no veil and full recall will be
easy.
