The Tor is pretty cool. You can see for miles at the top. Sheep roam free across the land. There is definitely a cool vibe in Glastonbury. There is a well at the bottom of the hill that people drink and bathe in because it is believed to be a fountain of youth, if I recall. I visited Glastonbury in 2018 I think.
@marigold thank you for your reply. I did get ti Oxford after college for a summer graduate program for Americans, in Shakespeare. We lived in one of the colleges and my dorm was built by Christopher Wren. I would love to go back and see the Tor and also especially the Bodleian Library. I felt very at home there and also in London during a different summer. If we do live many lives, I am certain I lived in London and Oxford. Thank you, Marigold, for making that connection for me. Bless you.
It’s been a hard day trying to deal with @Coyote’s situation and realizing he will never come back, at least not in his body. I have not read the Prayers thread since posting the news this morning. I will go do that now. But you just lifted me up so high with your post about that dream. Gives me such hope.
@jeanne-mayell I am glad I trusted what came to me and posted it. The sense of Oxford especially the Bodleian was instant and strong and I have never been there.
So hard for you and others here who have known so well this brilliant, light-filled, gentle soul.
@luminous What a beautiful experience you have had! Thank you so much for sharing it. It really does resonate. I have not had such a clear experience as you describe, but have had brief moments of clarity or realization similar to this. This life on earth is just one piece of our experience and we are so much more. I would love to hear more about what beliefs you have changed/expanded from this and other experiences you mention having. So interesting!
@cc21 the experience made me pull away from some of the rigid beliefs I had taken on over the years from all the religions and certain spiritual books. That isn't to say there is no truth there in them, but it would be limiting to define and categorise my experience into any of those. I can try to use an analogy though. Try to imagine that the great ultimate consciousness/God is a virtual Cloud where we store things online. Now imagine this Virtual Cloud storage is a great cosmic cloud of consciousness in the Universe that contains all memories, expressions, identities that we join when we go over to spirit, but an expression of that individuality that we call 'self' transcends and continues to express itself across the Universe. I suppose I could say we become co-creators, but I am not sure that is the right description/words. I am still trying to break down and comprehend the whole thing really. It just goes on and on infinitely expanding and expressing itself in infinite ways and we are all part of that. I haven't yet found a particular belief that shares the same understanding, but when I read about what the Tibetan Monks talk about and what the Ancient Native American Indians believe, I think there are some things there that resonate with my experience. This is something I wouldn't have explored or looked into previously.
One of the big things that has changed me is my perspective on life. That means I now see people who I usually profoundly disagree with, as someone who could be my brother or my sister or my cousin or father or mother. I don't see them as enemies like I did before. I see their flaws, but I have flaws. We are all flawed. So I try now to sympathise with them more and better understand from their perspective, but educating myself on what their perspective is. Ignorance can work both ways. The Earth is being tranformed, denitely yes, we can all feel that, but we can't co-exist and transmute our differences if both sides box people off and leave them closed off or a lost cause. Sometimes we need to reach out and just be a good neighbour or friend to them so we can spread the light. It is about touching lives with our light. It is what we all have to do.
@luminous Thank you, again, for sharing more about your experience and your process/transformation to this point. I find it so fascinating to hear of other people's journeys and perspectives. I agree, from various things I have read about, experienced, etc. I agree that different belief systems capture truths, but no one of them has the entire picture. Maybe we are not capable of comprehending the entire picture in this form (or most of us, anyway...) I grew up in the Byzantine Catholic church and God is often referred to as "the incomprehensible." But yet we are here on this earth to learn and grow and it is indeed part of our journey to be here. I have found myself letting go of specific dogma and rigidness in recent years as well. We are all one, for sure, and all have flaws. Compassion and love are key. I love your last thought above, "It is about touching lives with our light. It is what we all have to do." Exactly. Whatever our light may be, it is our job to grow it, nurture it, and share it as much as possible.
@cc21 thank you for kind words. The last part was from my heart. People can take or leave what I've said, but I try to lay bare in a raw and sometimes uncompromising way, my experiences. It doesn't resonate with everyone I know, especially things I have shared before, but these are the experiences as they come unfiltered.
I don't always get visions the same way other people here do, I get a lot dreams and waking visions in the early hours of the morning or when nodding off to sleep. Sometimes I share them, and sometimes I don't. I don't really care at all for having prediction hits, and whether or not what I have seen comes to pass or not. That doesn't mean I don't like wanting to know about the future and what other people are saying, because if that were true then I wouldn't be here or have asked to have a psychic reading for my own life. Heck, sometimes I just can't see certain things about the future because I haven't been shown or told anything, so I just like to know those things like everybody else.
Maybe one day when I feel brave enough, I will share more, but this might be my last post for a while, but we will see what spirit wants me to do.
My best thoughts have happened around 2-3 in the morning. If I am already up or suddenly wake up around then, some incredible and often creative ideas seem to come to me. When I would nurse my baby daughters in the early morning hours, I often felt like I was being given information that was like a creative awakening.
I had a dream last night. The Microsoft OneDrive Live website went down because it had been hacked. My dreams don't often come true, but I can definitely see this one being a real thing. Please be careful with your information online and on your computers, just in case. I didn't see any timing in my dream for this. But in the dream, I tried to access the website and it was just a blank screen.
