a few years ago, since i was about 5 or 6 i kept having these recurring nightmares. they were actually a little more in depth but yeah. After falling asleep at night, i would sleep walk (always up to my parents room, or whereevr my parents were) crying my eyes out complaning about not wanting to be on the roof. it is impossible to describe my feelings, but all i can remember is that it had something to do with going onto the roof. my mum would try to take me into her room while i was doing this but i kept on crying and saying that i didnt want to fly. the thing is that i could see everything as it was around me, but i could also see vague shapes of other people too and i couldnt think straight. the 'dream' would always end when i finally went into my parents room and realised that being on the roof was alright. it was crazy and hard to explain. but i dont know if anyone can explain what was happening?
Hi High This appears not so much astral travel, as the energy surrounding the full merging into the flesh, from spirit form. When a person is born they walk in spirit, and innocense for a time. Then as they fully take on the form, and life they are born into within the flesh, they move away from spirit focus, and into the physical focus. Just like a baby coming through the birth process there are struggles into a new awareness. If all of this happened at birth few would survive the complete abrupt seperation. The dream takes you to the roof, and the not wanting to fly, along with the double awareness in seeing what is around you, and coming out the other side by being assured flying is ok. All show you your own growth, and steps into becoming one within yourself. How else would you learn what this life has to teach you in the flesh. I once talked to a person who had a split personality. He lived both in his spirit infincy, and in the physical of a grown man. On days when he was with spirit he lay curled in bed sucking his thumb, and unaware of the world around him as if he were no more than a few months old. When he was a man he was a business executive, and great at what he did. Nothing seemed to set off one, or the other, as he could tell. Some days were up, and running, while others were laying in a cocoon of wonder, lost to this world. His diary read like a anchient mystry being unraveled. He wrote of his dreams, and experiences so he would remind himself he was one not two people. Often dreams will help us work through growth, and awareness, as well as healing, and understanding. To embrace the process will often let us know what we seemingly left behind, we are also heading toward. Kind of like spinning in circles until your world spins with you. This is why some seem more intutive than others, or more set in their ways. The emotional attachment here holds the key.
It sounds more like Genetic Memory to me. You're 14. Right? I'm guessing you are the oldest child of your parents. We all have that fear of leaving the safety of home. Birds toss their young out of the nest. Some survive by learning to fly. Then there is the bad side. Some don't.
In my opinion, you are having a classic hypnogogic sleep experience. The hypnogogic state is when you are in the state of being sort of in-between sleeping and being awake. This is well documented and understood by sleep researchers -- everybody experiences this once and awhile. When you are in the hypnagogic state, it is common to have the feeling that you are flying or floating -- and also to see other dream images, even though you think you are fully awake. The reason you can feel like you are flying or on the roof, is that in hypnogogic state, your mind cannot feel your body. The reason for this is that the brain "turns off" the body during sleep so that we don't get up and act out our dreams. Sleep walking is a malfuction of this safeguard. But anyway, in the hypnogogic state, your mind is awake, or half-awake, but the connection to your body is still cut off. Thus, you get all these crazy floating experiences. You can also feel totally numb, or frozen, and see flashing lights, starnge beings, ect. But don't worry -- it's all normal. www.ironghost.wordpress.com www.starcopywriter.com Hey, Flippy Flappy to Everyone!
