Other Paranormal Phenomenon

Past Life Regression - I believe that people have lived past lives, myself included. I have never done a past life regression but I would love to. However, I do have a little knowledge of a past life. When I was visiting my aunt (the one who taught me about paranormal stuff), she asked me if I knew someone named Sarah. I said that I had a friend whose daughter's name was Sarah. She said nope, this person is not among the living but has a message for you. My aunt showed me how to communicate with Sarah. This is what I got: Sarah was my daughter in my past life. I lived in the same town I grew up in in this life. My best friend, Mel, was also my best friend back then, too. I learned that Sarah died in a fire. I kept seeing 3 mean men around her and she was very scared of them. I am still not sure who those men were, but they were not friendly. When I got back to IL, I told Mel about Sarah. As I did this, I got a very clear image of Sarah and at that same moment, Mel did, too. I asked her what she thought Sarah looked like and her description matched what I saw!! Sarah was about 6 or 7, long blond hair, dressed in an 1800s type dress. I have not seen or communicated with Sarah since this time (1991 - 1992). If you would like to learn about past lives, you can have a hypnotherapist hypnotize you or you can learn how to do it yourself. I have not tried either, but I want to!
Automatic Writing - I have tried doing this, and my suggestion to anyone who wants to do it is to make sure you put a protection light around you. You do not want to get unwanted spirits. It does work, though. Kind of creepy.This is used mostly if you want to speak to your spirit guides or a loved one who has passed. Basically, what I do (after the protection light) is grab a pen or pencil and some paper. I then call for my spirit guide or loved one I want to communicate with. I just barely touch the paper with my pen or pencil and close my eyes so the pen or pencil does the work. I open my eyes when I am finished to see if I can make out anything. I usually can but sometimes it's hard because the writing is so jagged and spirits are horrible spellers. You can also do this at your computer.
Astral Projection - I have never done this, but I have always been interested in it.
In astral projection you remain attached to your physical body by a silver umbilical type cord. Some people are able to see the cord.. To astral project, as with all out-of-body experiences, one must feel totally relaxed, wear comfortable clothing, and reclining is best. You might want to cover yourself with a blanket during this bacause the physical body tends to get cold when you travel out.

When you astral project, you are consciously aware of things you encounter while out of your physical body. Astral projection (or astral travel) is an out-of-body experience achieved either awake or through lucid dreaming or deep meditation. People who say they experience astral projection often say that their spirit or astral body has left their physical body and moves in another dimension known as the spirit world or astral plane. The concept of astral projection has been around and practiced for thousands of years, dating back to ancient China. It is currently often associated with the New Age movement. (source: Crystallinks)
Dreams - I love dreaming because it takes you to another place, perhaps even another time. I usually have very vivid, realistic dreams, and I can normally determine if it is just a dream or a message being sent by a higher being, like my spirit guides. Dreams usually contain symbols that represent certain things. For example, on several occasions I have dreamt about my teeth falling out, which is a very normal thing to do. This means that sickness or death is near. Yeah, that's reassuring. For more on dream symbols, visit Dream Dictionary.

I have had dreams of past lives, too. In one very vivid dream, I was sitting at a vanity. My hair was up in ringlets and I was getting ready for something ( no idea what). I looked very much like I do now...just a little different. My husband stood behind me and told me I looked beautiful. I could not see his face in the mirror though. But my attire and hair style was 1800's southern belle type.

Prior to that in the early 90s, I had a dream where I came to a bridge. On the other side of the bridge was a castle. I was debating on whether or not to cross the bridge. I was on a horse. That's all I saw. Nothing major, but it really stood out. I have always been highly interested in England and castles, so maybe this was a glimpse of my past life.

When I was pregnant with my first child in 1993, I had dreams about Native Americans. In one dream in particular, I was walking through a village. I could see the teepees and the indians as I walked past them. I never spoke to them at all. I kept walking until I was no longer in the village. As I got over a hill, I saw the U.S. Cavalry. They were heading toward me and the village. When they past me, it was obvious they could not see me, but I turned around toward the village and felt such a huge amount of sadness, because I knew the village and the people would soon be gone.

Some dreams help you see the future. I get these sometimes and only when the event actually happens is when I remember the dream. I used to keep a dream diary, but that is so hard to do when you wake up in the middle of the night. My first instinct is to just go back to sleep. If you want to keep a dream diary, grab a notebook, pen and a book light. Keep them on your night stand next to your bed. Any time you wake up from a very vivid dream, record the date, time and dream in your diary. This will allow you to go back and reflect on them in the future. Did you know that if you awake from a dream, you can go back to that same dream? As soon as you wake up, stay in the same position you were in when you woke, then go back to sleep. I got this idea from a friend a long time ago, and it actually works. Not necessarily all the time, but it can happen. Try it!
Spirit Guides - Everyone has spirit guides who guide and protect them through their time on the physical plane...guardian angels, if you will. You can even communicate with them. I have not tried to do that yet, but I am going to learn how to do it. They are not with us all the time, but if you call for them, they will come to you. Communication with them can occur while daydreaming or meditating.
