Dreams and Psi Events

Using Dreams to find psi experiences

Discussion Post I submitted for my Atlantic University TP6100 Course – February 19, 2020.

1) Do psychic events identify themselves before the fact, or only after the fact?

In the dreams I examined, which go back approximately 6 weeks, I only discovered two instances that in retrospect may have been precognitions of future events.  In this exercise, I did not identify any links from dreams to events that were upcoming, such as getting a vision of the future PowerBall number before the correct number was drawn (although I’m trying!).  Neither of the dreams was a warning either, such as a plane crash in my dream that caused me to take the train instead, for example.

In the first potential link to a future event, on January 8, I had a dream I was in the town I grew up where my brother and I are currently selling my parents home.  My mom passed in August, and my Dad three years prior to her.  A number of dreams in recent weeks have involved the cleaning out of the home and both my parents have been present in my dreams on several occasions.

In this particular dream, my brother and I were checking on the house since it was for sale (we put it on the market in mid-December).  In the dream, we were walking through the house when an Asian realtor popped out from the top floor with a family in tow.  This past weekend, we accepted an offer from an Asian family, so a close hit but not direct in that in the dream the realtor was Asian but not necessarily the family.  I did not recall or take note of the ethnicity of the family in the dream.

In another dream, a woman who I met at the November A.R.E. psychic conference appeared in a dream I had on January 11.  In the dream, we were attending a conference or some type of gathering, and we were looking at the configuration of a hotel room to see if the number of beds in the room, including whether we needed queens or singles, was adequate for our group.  

Approximately 2 weeks later, we had a text exchange after I attended another A.R.E. conference over Martin Luther King weekend which neither she or the other friend I met in November attended.  She was asking how it went, and we decided that the three of us should get together in Virginia Beach in February for a mini-reunion.   

Shortly after this text, I had a business trip pop up in Orlando – where I’m headed now actually – and since she lives in Tampa, we decided to do our reunion in Florida instead of Virginia Beach.  She said she would look into booking a room at the hotel where my business engagement is occurring for a night following the event.  

This dream has implications that it’s about a future event at a point when I had no idea we’d be planning a reunion nor that I even had a business trip scheduled for Florida.  Even after we began discussing a get-together, it was scheduled for Virginia Beach, and we were going to stay with our other friend, so rooms weren’t even an issue until later when the Florida trip arose.

2) Does a particular state of consciousness seem to be especially conducive to psychic experiences?

In whatl we’ve read for this course, and in what I’ve learned in TP6000, the dream state provides fertile ground for psychic experiences.  There’s a long and rich history of dreams literally changing the trajectory of world events, generals have used it for strategic war planning, and many authors, poets, and musicians have used this state to formulate masterpieces in their waking lives.

In my own experience since the semester began, I’ve found that the dream state is highly malleable.  The first tool is setting an intention prior to falling asleep.  I have set the intention of having a psychic experience when I’m dreaming, and I had a few cases of lucid dreaming, a state where I knew I was dreaming.  It takes practice to manipulate, and my experiences were short, but I got a taste of what can be accomplished, including directing my subconscious towards psi experiences.  

I’ve also had other dream states that I haven’t experienced prior to this semester.  One such state occurred the other night when my son came into my room at 2:30a and said he wanted to sleep on the floor. As he walked by, I was in an in-between wake and sleep state, and I knew that I had experienced this scene before.  It was a clear case of déjà vu.

In several other dreams I’ve had recently, the vividness of “day residue” was so clear that I wasn’t sure whether I was asleep or awake.  In one dream, I knew I had to record the dream, so I did a recording with a voice app on my iPhone.  I felt good that I had accomplished the recording so I went back to sleep.  When I awoke, however, I discovered that I had only dreamt of doing the recording, and in fact, I had not noted anything.  I had to scramble to try to remember what I thought I had previously recorded!

3) How can I work with and/or explain the meaningful experiences I have in altered states that do not prove to be psi?

Dreams are a rich source of personal information right at our fingertips, information that largely goes unnoticed by our culture.  For the most part, at least in my limited experience, most of the dream material doesn’t involve psi experiences.  I’m sure there is more there but like in the case of this exercise, it requires going back over a fair amount of dreams and then linking them to events that have already occurred.  As we learn to manipulate our dreams, I’m sure there will be more opportunities for psi experiences. 

The altered state of dreaming provides numerous benefits to those who are willing to take the time to work with them.  They can answer questions that are weighing on your mind – a course we took last summer suggested writing a “pillow letter” to yourself in which you spelled out your intention and literally sleep on it.  They can be the impetus for creative work as I mentioned.  And finally, they can be an altered state that provides invaluable, deeply personal information about a soul’s journey, purpose, and road to happiness.

  1. Hi Craig,

    When I was younger I had a recurrent dream. The house I lived in with my parents, sisters, brother and grandmother was on fire. In my dream, pretty vivid, I used to throw away the mattress through the window and everything else as well. The dream stopped when I came in this country. A friend of mine told me that it came from a past life. From that moment on, the dream stopped. And of course, later, I had a past life regression that confirmed what my friend had told me.

    Another dream that occurred frequently as well was when I was going to a pretty traumatic divorce. I had different dreams when I was pursued by a man or I was stuck in a room with a very high window etc, but in every dreams (vivid as well) no matter where I was, I was able to escape and for me it meant that, no matter what, I would be fine.

  2. Hi Myriam,

    Thanks for sharing. Recurring dreams are especially important to keep an eye out since it’s your subconscious trying to get your attention. It’s certainly possible that the first dream was part of your past life, as you confirmed with a later reading. However, it also could be part of this life as well; dreams can have many layers and many meanings. A house on fire certainly speaks of dangers and fears in that environment and the fact that you needed to break free with everything you own is telling. It’s interesting the dream stopped once you left the situation.

    I think you’ve interpreted the second dream correctly. Being trapped in a room high above the ground and being chased by a male figure certainly speaks to your divorce situation. It’s interesting that in both dreams, despite the danger and fears, you’re able to escape, so you’re quite a strong soul!

    Blessings,

    Craig
