I can’t believe it’s been nearly a year since I posted
anything on my blog! I so apologize to those who do check my blog for the lack
of updates, but I do want to also thank you for your continued patronage.
There is so much I have learned over these years regarding
who we truly are and how the Universe will always take care of us, giving us
EXACTLY what we need (despite outward appearances) if we only trust that
whatever is happening, is happening ALWAYS in our best interest.
My focus lately has been on living THIS physical life to the
maximum, and I have been blessed with recently finding my true ‘soul mate’ to
share wonderful life adventures with! Hence the reason I have put aside (for
now) the intense focus on out of body experiences. I will say that I KNOW I am still ‘getting
out’ and enjoy the memories that I retain just before waking, knowing I am
still learning both here and astrally.
I will share one exciting short OBE that I had just recently
as it involved seeing my father again after his passing this past March
2014. I knew at some point I’d see him
again, when he and I were both ‘ready’.
I have learned that physical emotions have a huge impact in
the astral and traveling, and when out of body, one cannot allow strong ‘human
emotions’ to control you and your actions.
There is only one strong ‘emotion’ that can exist in the astral, and
that is LOVE…. not sadness, regret or other overwhelming emotion, as that will
not allow you to stay in control of your experience. Hence, I believe, there was a need for some ‘time’
here in physical for me to adjust to seeing him again, so as to allow a less
emotional (sadness, longing) response upon seeing him.
As it was, when I first became aware, I could hear his voice
speaking to someone, a strong, clear voice that I so missed hearing during his
later years. He was speaking to someone off to his side and I remember thinking
how wonderful it was to hear his voice again.
With that thought, my vision cleared and I became aware of
my mother on my right (who is still in physical) and was speaking with her,
asking if she could hear Dad’s voice as well.
She kept talking to me about how it ‘can’t be him’ as he’s no longer
with us.
Looking to my left, I saw him. There was Dad, in all his youthful vigor,
sitting in a chair chatting with what felt to be a ‘patient’ (Dad was also a
nurse) that I couldn’t see. He was engrossed
with discussing his life’s events, how he became a nurse, was drafted in the
Army to become a Captain, built houses and on and on with his
accomplishments. It felt good to hear
him so strong and so proud, and I excitedly yelled to my mother, “Look, look!
It’s Dad” and all I could get from her was ‘no, no, it can’t be him, he’s
gone’.
I knew I was out of body, asleep as it were, and visiting my
Dad but I could not get my mother (who I will assume was with me astrally as
well) to believe that Dad was with us.
I spoke to Dad but cannot recall exact words, but it felt
like it was difficult to convince him as well that he could see me because I
was out of body or ‘dreaming’. He told
me “what do you mean you are dreaming?
I’m right here!”
I also knew that this was my chance to move on and travel a
bit more with this awareness, however, my emotional attachment with Dad and
seeing him for the first time since his death was so strong that I didn’t want
to leave him.
This was a short visit, without too much activity within;
however the intense emotional satisfaction I received is beyond words. I realize that it takes time for some who
don’t fully understand we are more than our physical bodies to become adjusted
to a spiritual existence, but ultimately they will; as that is our ‘true’
nature we will all return to.
I’m pleased to know Dad is doing well and enjoying his new
‘life’. This experience, although short,
hopefully will help those who have had losses in their life to realize that
ultimately, our loved ones are happy and safe and will once again be a part of
our ‘lives’, whether with a short visit while in physical or with a long
awaited spiritual reunion upon our own deaths.
