Hi, wonder if anyone out there can help me with a recurring 'dream' I have been having.
While I am asleep my phone rings, which wakes me up in real life however when I either check by doing 1471, or look at my mobile there is no message or missed call. At first it was my mobile text inwards tone that I heard or my mobile ring tone and I just assumed it was someone outside walking their dog or unable to sleep and they just had the samephone as me or something however it is now my land line ring tone that I hear and wakes me.
I perhaps wouldn't be quite so bothered if it didn't happen at 2-3 am! If it was a nuisance call I could block it but as there hasn't actually been a call and I am just hearing things in my sleep I wondered whether anyone can shed any light on this experience (scientific or esoteric!). It has happened the last two nights in a row and about a dozen times before Christmas but not consecutively and I am starting to feel more than a little spooked by it (and it is quite annoying as I get up at 6.30 to go to work and take a bit of time to get back to sleep).
This morning after being woken I went to the loo as I felt a bit wobbly about being woken and when I came back in the bedroom there was a grey feather just inside the door which I don't think was there before - but I am very undomesticated so maybe I just hadn't noticed it!!
Would be very interested if anyone can shed some light on this - or tell me how to stop it - no point wearing ear plugs as the phone isn't really ringing!
Thanks
RE: Recurring dream
Hi,
I think 'somebody' is trying to communicate with you. Have you been thinking of somebody who has passed over a lot recently? It is usually when we think of them that they draw close or if we are at a low that they come to give us help and support. Ibelieve that spirit try to attract our attention by flickering some of your lights, ringing telephones etc. but if you are not finely attuned to this you write it off orlook for logical excuses for the happenings. As for the feather - if you have been thinking of somebody from the other side - is there any reason that a feather would connect to them, they always had birds, or raced pigeons, worked at a feather duster company, always had a feather in a cap, whatever?????
If you don't know anybody who has passed over lol!!! and you believe in angels, then there is a belief that angels leave feathers in order to tell you they are around. Angels and guides have a habit of trying to communicate in the middel of the night (just like spirit)- I think this is probably the only time our brains are a bit quiet and we have half a chance of hearing them.
I think what you need to do is before you go to sleep - pretend you are crazy and start a coversation in you head - say, hallo, I know you are here and I would love to talk to you but if you have something to say, do it now because you realy bugger up my night by trying to communicate at ungodly hours (you don't have to be humble or anything, you are talking to yourself so be normal!). Still your mind and see if any thought 'pops' into your head. Maybe it's a name, or a place, or a memory - whatever thought comes up, think about it briefly and let it go, then continue your conversation and say that meant something or that made no sense - you can continue the conversation or say you know what, I'm going to sleep now, don't wake me up and we will try this again tomorrow. (If you that that you also have to do it!). I believe that whomever is trying to communicate with you is trying their hardest but they also respect our wishes so just be clear on when it is convenient for you or that they should just go away because you are not interested at all. (bad for evolving the soul, I would suggest you try to communicate.)
Hope this is of a little help or gives you a real good giggle.
Have a good night sleep!
RE: Recurring dream
Hi Jobelle
Thank you very much for taking the time to write back to me, I had considered some of the things you wrote about as I had wondered if it was 'spirit' trying to communicate and my mother did die just before Christmas several years ago however I sometimes dream about her so didn't think it would be her (also she used to moan at me for not getting enough sleep so don't think she would disturb me!).
Can't think of anyone who had a relationship with birds/feather dusters etc and have heard of the angel theory but thought they were white feathers and this one is dark like a duck or pigeon.
I did try the asking 'them/whoever' not to buggar up my sleep etc as you suggested but nothing came into my head although I was perhaps trying too hard and not just letting things happen. I have taken a little while beforereplying to your kind post as I wanted to see if the dream would re-occur (it hasn't but then there was a gap between times before when it happened) or if anything came to mind just before sleep/bedtime - it hasn't either!
A few years ago I did join a development circle but due to work commitments and the circle that I went to closing down I haven't done any further development for a couple of years. There is another circle locally but I don't really feel comfortable with the person who runs it but I had wondered ifthe dreamwas a nudge to get me to return (physicallydifficult to spare the time at the momentthough).
Could it be related to my ex whose first wife had died quite tragically (I believe around January - I met him 2 years after she had passed away)? Our relationship was fine to start with but deteriorated after we married and I know that for a time before he moved out he was messing about with magik (which he denied).
Anyhow thank you very much for your post which was both helpful and made me giggle (I talk to myself quite alot as it is without you encouraging me!)
If you get any other thoughts I would be glad to hear them
