The past two nights I’ve had interesting realizations.
22 Jan
In an attempt to relax enough to sleep, I tried doing deep breathing while holding aragonite. It’s a centering crystal, and it tends to, well, center me or keep me ‘here’ more. Then I decided to pick up the spirit crystal, which is mostly amethyst in composition I believe. As I held it, I started to hear the bizarre slapping/snapping sound that I sometimes hear while drifting to sleep. I struggle to describe it because it isn’t physical, and not something I hear with my physical ears, but something I hear inside my head so to speak. What was unusual is that the sounds weren’t quite as loud as usually, and much more frequent. I’ve never really known what the cause of these sounds were, just that sometimes people hear them when heading to the astral plane. So I was stumped as usual.
Then I had a thought. What if that sound is occuring whenever someone/thing attempts to enter my shield and is stopped? Even if it doesn’t make a sound on another plane, but mind could interpret what it’s experiencing as the sound it would produce in the physical plane. This seems to make a lot of sense, though I don’t really have any evidence for this yet. Eventually I’ll be able to see, and that will allow me to know. In any case, any explanation is better than none.
23 Jan
There are some major shifts going on. People sensitive to energy are really struggling right now. Here are some symptoms:
1. Insomnia - unable to fall asleep until the wee hours of the morning (5am for instance), or finding restful sleep impossible
2. Changes in dreams - increasingly violent, or involving UFO’s, spiritual groups, etc
3. Flu like symptoms
I’ve been struggling to get sleep that wasn’t just an inbetween state. Someone recommended Roman Chamomile essential oils, rubbed into the feet. I picked up some mixed with Lavender, which smells better, and it did help. So if you’re struggling with this, get some!
I realized last night that there could be a reason for increased violence in dreams, without it predicting physical violence. Our dreams are still messages from our minds and subconscious. Perhaps our minds are struggling with the shift, or even resisting it, and thus feel it violently. This would simply be reflected back in our dreams as a way to cope with the issues. It makes a lot of sense to me right now. But maybe that’s the lack of sleep talking.
And now, I’m going to put the oil on my feet and get to sleep! I’d love to hear your thoughts on my ideas. They’re based on inuition only, and very little evidence. More evidence is always nice.
