I’m swimming and underwater creatures scare me into flight. I spring into the air enjoying the splash the water creates, but my level of control is low. I fall back into the water. Now I begin to enjoy both worlds and trade off swimming and flying. Since I’m lucid, I have no problem being in the water without oxygen. There are beautiful canyons around me and I can see an open passageway within the rock. I first see it while I’m underwater and decide to enter the space while I’m above the surface.

Flying through the open cave, I’m following stairs that spiral down. There are many ancient Mayan or Egyptian statues. A wonderful feeling floods over me as I hover through this place. Love is penetrating the whole area. The idea hits me that guests should love and cherish the place as a whole, rather than cherishing the treasures and creating divisions within themselves. The real treasure is the energy, the love and the spirit.

The path brings me to a dark room. There’s a small white square on the floor, about two inches across. By the square is a glorious statue of a cat with wings. She’s alive and is there to protect the space. She looked away when I entered the room, so I wouldn’t be intimidated by her presence. I am honored to be welcomed into the space.

Looking deeper, the square seems to be an illuminated cube. There are words curving around the cube and I can’t focus on what it says, but I remember the meaning. It acts as a gateway for visitors who step on it. Now it’s time to place my little feet there and have the experience. The phasing process almost wakes me up, but I continue to imagine being there. The exercise works to hold me here. Images flash in front of me, and then an image stabilizes. I’m viewing a square pool in an outside location. I’m unsure how the place is connected to me. I’m finished with viewing different places on the gateway and decide to remain in this ancient room. I’m communicating with the cat, but she doesn’t respond to me. I try again, but telepathically this time. That works! She responds to me in single word and simple responses. Upon waking, I can’t recall what was said. 

I’m flying in an area that I know I’ve visited before in other dream journeys. There are a lot of fancy buildings lined up in a curve. I try to figure out if they are Spanish style buildings, but shrug it off and just enjoy the experience. They’re still distant from me and I focus my attention there to get closer. A storm cloud appears in the distance as well. Now my intention has changed to avoid the storm. An invisible force is pulling me backward. I recognize the feeling, but still feel fear. Dark and light clouds are surrounding me. I decide to call out to the four archangels.    

“Michael… Raphael… Gabriel… Uriel please come and protect me”.    

As I say their names, a gentle whiteness folds around me as I fade into waking. I’m amazed at this slow, gentle and comforting whiteness. It’s so loving and I want to experience it again and again.  

I was lucid in a dream today
The dream was fresh in my mind as I awoke
And happiness flooded through me
Because it had been so long
Since I had a dream of power
I was with a couple of people
Dancing
A man
Trying to distract me
Enchant me
I flew
Eating strawberries
Diving into the Earth
It was difficult to move physically
So my mind propelled me instead

I’m in bed, because it’s time to sleep. I know I should be sleeping, but it’s very far from me. What is close is sadness, loneliness and anger. If I don’t do anything about this, it’s going to haunt me all night. I begin to mentally speak with spirit and pray to meet a guide. I continue to speak until my emotion calms and my intent is imprinted in my mind. I’m sure I won’t forget now.

I fall asleep and the night rolls by.

I awaken in the dream feeling gently suspended and supported in space. A man is with me to my left. The instant I see him, I know he’s the guide I asked for. This is amazing! I’m within the dream with full clarity and feel honored that someone heard and answered my prayer.

I look at this man in amazement. He looks like he’s in his thirties with curly brown hair. I giggle to myself, because I specifically requested that the person shouldn’t be attractive.  I didn’t want to fall into temptation and miss a big dream.

To be suspended in space is very comforting. It’s not even space as we know it, but it’s the closest concept that I can relate it too. It reminds me of being in mother’s womb, but with plenty of room to travel.

There are moments of free travel and we watch subtle shapes go by. We reach a point where the ether carries us. My guide and I are sitting in something that feels like a slow elevator. He’s holding my hand to further comfort me.

A special place comes into view. It looks like a crystal landscape. There are multiple blue and clear crystals everywhere in a gorgeous work of art. We start to walk around in this place. He says that there was a group of men who lived here and carved it all. There were empty bottles of alcohol, so I knew that they drank for entertainment. Perhaps they just wanted it so work would be easier to deal with. Whatever the reason, the bottles were there.

Moving on, we reach a big ancient book on a pedestal. There are worm like creatures wiggling through the pages which prevent me from exploring it further.

Turning to my left, I see another area that is quite creative. There are very tall and skinny masks. They’re all standing in a large circle. I wonder what the significance of this area is, but by this time there seems to be space between the guide and me. I can ask him, but continue to look around. It feels very earthy here, like a grounding energy exists.
