“I will be here until certain things fall in place”

                         Saint Adrian Roman Pagan                           
   Very often I meet people in my dreams or meditation experiences. However, somehow my recent experience still baffled me in many ways.
  It was the afternoon hours of the first month of September, when I decided to go for an afternoon nap. In the process, I used a meditation song and a fractal picture of a friend of mine to get me into the mood of needed rest.
I must felt deep into sleep, when almost what felt like a out-of-body experience came about.
It felt like as soon I felt asleep, I heard three hard knocks in my room door. I got up and opened the door, to see my friend accompanied by another man that I haven’t see before. This man was about 5’11” in high, he had dark brown hair parted in the middle, passing his ears but not quite touching his shoulders. He had big hazel color eyes with a serenity look into it. He also have a light mustache and goat tee bear, he somehow reminded me of Jesus of Nazareth. He was wearing khakis pants with a polo shirt in white and blue colors. His entire attire reminded me of the 70s.

My friend look at me and said “This is Adrian who is looking for you, so I brought him with me”. We turn towards him and I introduced myself by ending asking Adrian.. “so what are you up to?” He looked at me with intensity and said “I am here for the time being, until certain things fall in place. After that someone else will come”.
His response was unusual but turn out to be quite a coincidences of information later on.
I was trying to figure out why he said this to me when I realized that I was dreaming, that this situation was not real somehow. After realizing this, I found myself back in my bed still with my headphones on, listening to the meditation song. I knew then, that this is very significant somehow.

I talked to a friend of mine, trying to figure out who can be Adrian?, She suggested me to look around in the web for Saint Adrian .  As I did, what called my attention among the things I found out among all the stories of Saint Adrian, was the fact that he is known as the patron of old soldiers. Being an old soldier myself, I found this quite amusing. Then seeing that he is always represented standing by an anvil, it reminded me the dream I had a couple days before, where a sledge hammer was present with the shape of an anvil. 

To top this up, I told my friend (who was in the dream) about this unusual dream. He said that his background is Roman Catholic and yes he had knowledge of Saint Adrian through his childhood but he couldn’t recall of why or when it become about.

Thinking into the circumstances prior to this meditation experience, I was depress about lack of work/creativity and seeing that things that I am very close to obtain, are not moving quick enough into manifestation. Thinking of this, was quite a drainage of energy on me that urged me to go into my room to lay down but instead I decided to listen to a meditation song with it.

Numerology into this dream:

    I tend to look into numbers and meanings through dreams and about almost everything else in my life. This event happens in September 1st (9+1=10) The number ten in Tarot is about completion of cycles of life. It’s also represented by “The Wheel of Fortune” Tarot card. This meditation experience, took place between the hours of 2:00PM and 2:45PM (2+2+4+5= 11)  For everything spiritual significant in my life the sight of 11:11 or just the number 11 comes around—to show me things that are about to begin or things that are about to be finished.

The number 11 is thought of as a "master" number in numerology because it is a double digit of the same number. When this occurs - the vibrational frequency of the prime number doubles in power. Meaning, the attributes of the Number One are doubled. Read more about number 11 here.

Adrian’s arrival to my door was announce with “3” hard knocks. The number 3 in Christianity: represents the Trinity, the soul, the union of the body and soul in human. There is an ancient wisdom that's says: "Messages or events that come in three's are worth noticing". Whenever anything is mentioned three times it is a witness to us that these things are of utmost importance. Three symbolized manifestation into the physical. In addition to being a number of good fortune, 3 is also a number of multiplicity. In Tarot the number 3 is represented by the "The Empress" card which is the fertility card, representing growth and fulfillment in all areas of life.

The celebration of Saint Adrian’s day is on September 8th (9+8=17 / 1+7=8). The number 8 is associated in Tarot with the card “Strength” as well is associated with the sign of Leo and Scorpio, while being influence by the Sun, Saturn and Pluto. Earth is the element for the number 8 people and they have red aura colors. Energetically the number eight represents material success.

More on the number 8: Those who were born with a Life Path of 8 were born for a life of leadership, organization and governance.  Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/1116128

Saint Adrian dies on March 4th of the year 306 (3+4+3+0+6=16--1+6=7) Seven indicates the senses of a change after an accomplished cycle and of a positive renewal. The number 7 is represent in several passages of the Bible from the 7 days of Genesis to the book of Revelations.
 

Conclusion:

The introduction of this Adrian it can be merely just an experience, but association of his message and why he was in my dream, leave a lot to speculate. I believe that everything happens for a reason and this event still have more to show me.

There is a couple of days before Sept 8 comes about, what will happen in between in those days its up to be seeing. Adrian said that he will be here until certain things fall in place.. I felt the urge to write about this experience and I will consider this as an evidence of an event that still have to unfold.

I still have strong ties with my Roman Catholic up bring and relating this Adrian with Saint Adrian and my circumstances, feels about the right thing to do. Time will tell.. sure I will be in the look out for it..

Meditation Experience: DNA Changing?


       Last night I have a very interesting experience. I went to bed to balance myself and my hands started to heat up tremendously while close to my chakras. I felt the urge to place my hands in each chakra and I noticed the flow of energy of each of my chakras.


It was wild indeed, but for some reason the most powerful vortex from those chakras was coming from my solar plexus taking all my waist line as well my crown chakra covering my entire head. As the minutes pass, my entire body was vibrating at high speed, making me short of breath at times.

I have no idea of what all this is about, but when I asked spirit, I was told about DNA changing at cellular level. Have you experience this before? It's my first and wonder now.. :)

Meeting Sheva, My Totem Animal

 

betel3

         This dog’s picture on the left, is not Shiva, but sure look like it! Last night, while meditating I tried to meet my spirit animal guide. I must tell you, with the weird dreams I been having about animals lately, I thought my animal spirit might be a big snake or spider but no….it was the most beautiful sheep dog I ever saw.

I found her seating at the fountain where I was standing at, while admiring the village scene were I was. This dog was small, timid happy to see me while waving her tail. She had her ears back and extending her face towards me like asking to be touch.

She had one side of her face white and the other black but she had the most beautiful blue eyes I ever saw in an animal. So I started to talk to her and ask her about my on going situation, for which she told me something I haven’t think about. She said “The burden you are going through, its not for you to suffer from, because the lessons to learn are not yours, it belongs to them. Just stay calm while everything pass and you will see the light when everything falls in place”.

The message comforted me, while giving me some relieve to know that all this mess is not for me but for others to learn from. I turn to her and said to her “I always heard that the name of a spirit guide doesn’t matter but I do really would like to know what is yours”, her immediate response was “My name is Sheva”. I smiled at her remembering that a friend of mine once told me about the name Sheva before, but she only said that it might be someone that I will meet. I don’t remember what other questions I asked of Sheva during this meditation but I do remember telling her thanks for showing herself to me. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath of air  and when I opened my eyes Sheva the dog was gone, just to appear as part of the decoration of the fountain I was standing at. I back off from this place like pulled by string from my back, it was like looking a movie in reverse, finding myself back in bed looking at the sealing.

Sure was nice to meet my animal spirit, hope is not the last time I see her, the love she showed me is indescribable but sure would like to see her again. 

Looking for meanings of the name Sheva I found that in Hebrew Sheva can be interpreted as 'seven' or 'oath.' - see Genesis 21:22-34).  Who knows, it could be more meanings than that, but the important thing is that she is very real to me and I am glad to meet her.

Hey, You Have The Wrong House!

April 8th, 2010

        

bitch_300x180

                I have been feeling a strong painful pressure over my crown chakra for the past two days, like someone stabbing a knife through the top of my head. At the same time my ears were ringing more than usual. I felt that it was time to retreat and found some balance and grounding through meditation, thinking that this might be the problem of my sensations.

I went to bed around 9:00PM and started to meditate by relaxing my body and focus in the visualization I got in mind. While doing this my ears were ringing louder like blowing smoke through it. In the first time my higher self’s voice was calming down by saying “Let it be, is that you are getting ready to received spirit communication”.

After hearing this, I calmed myself and stood there just listening, waiting for the communication, but while waiting my ears started to ring louder again more stronger than before. However, this time I saw myself in a dark room but with windows all around and the outside was very well lighted. I saw this mid thirties white male wondering outside my house while peeking through the windows. I can see him clearly, he had wave blonde and brown hair a little over his ears in length and he was wearing a neon blue T-shirt. He was curious and smiling but it was something about the grin on his  face that didn’t felt right about him.

He kept wondering around the windows when he came cross the main door, he was about to open my door but instead he put his head through the window to see. My first reaction to it, was to yelled at him “Hey, you have the wrong house, you need to go now!” I snapped out of this meditation and realized that I either were half sleep having a vivid dream or it was something beyond my comprehension at this moment. All I can figure out at this moment was that the dark house  where I was sitting at, was my protection shell and that the individual trying to enter was an Earthbound spirit, I will never know…….but something I have learn through spirituality…if the energy doesn’t feel good, be prepare to get rid of it quick.

Cutting Cords With The Past

Feb 22, 2010

bigstockphoto_Cutting_Rope_2861986 Recently, I was dealing with a lot of sorrows, negativity and not knowing where to turn and wondering of why I keep remember episodes of my painful childhood. My friend Diana, recommended me to get with Linda Backes of A Radiant Life Center and suggested that I get the “Chord Cutting” guided meditation with her.

In my analytical  or perhaps my I say skeptical mind, I thought that it might be any use for it.. since those memories are deep within me for the past 40 something years of my life. However, I contacted Linda and we set a day for this event. The experience was quite profound as well the energy felt during this meditation.

I had one of those childhood in which my spirit was broken by my own mother. I was never good enough or couldn't do anything right for her. She was constantly saying that she regret the day I born and cursed me constantly for it, when things didn’t go her way. In top of that, the fact of me being sensitive and having a gift of hearing the dead in those days, was not her cup of tea alone with her religious beliefs. I lost counts of all the beating she did on me, in the name of her God and beliefs.

I felt deeply dune to my curse given by her on those days and carried it like a ball and chains all my life. During this meditation of cutting the cords that bounded me all these years to her memories. I saw myself face to face with my mother whom I haven’t talk to, since 2003. In my vision of her, I was able to tell her how much she hurt me with her words and tormented treatment. I felt brave enough to forgive her and forgive myself; and doing this was not a piece of cake at all but when I did….. the release of my soul was so profound.

I couldn’t believe how light I felt after that, and how loved I felt by God and the whole Universe. Leaving those memories behind as painful as they were and looking at them now as something of the past that can’t hurt me anymore, was priceless. The change was not only deep in my mind and soul but as well in my body, I guessed that the tremendous energy that love can give us, can make us walk in clouds for real, LOL

After that powerful meditation, I am more at ease with that part of my life, I feel worthy of God and the Universe and if my mother don’t see it that way, I just don’t care anymore.. because I know I have the greatest love of all…. God Loves and that to me.. it’s all I need to keep me going forward in life.. :)

Thank you Linda.. for your talent and dedication in helping others, my gratitude will be forever to God and yours. :)

Another Visitation...




       I woke up around 4am when hubby decided to come to bed, this glorious Saturday. It took me a while to fall asleep, so in the meantime I decided to do some meditation. I must fall asleep through it and had what I believe was a vivid dream or a walk into another realm.

       In this dream state, my hubby was talking to me in bed when we both heard a man's voice across the bedroom door saying "Lets go to school" hubby asked me, "did you heard that?" on my confirmation, he got up with a gun and decided to see who was behind the door. He went through it and closed it behind him leaving me alone in the room.


Right after he closed the door, a light being of some sort came through the door. First I saw orange colors and his skull forming out from the color. This fellow that I can't describe whether it was a he or a she, was huge in size. He had short blond hair, it was so bright hair almost look white. He/she got wide shoulders, was dressing in some sort of rope can't remember if it was white or gold color. However, he/she came near the foot of the bed and and stared at me and smiled in the most sweet way.

I saw hubby coming back into the room and the image of this being disappeared in thin air and I was left singing this song "Private eyes, are watching you... Private eyes, are watching you.." I am very sure you remember this song from the 80s can't remember who sang the darn song, but now I am stuck with it in my head.

I woke up from all this and realized that I was dreaming, however the face of the being and the song are in my mind in a very strong way.

If this is another alien visitation, I must said was a pleasant one, compared to the other 3 before this one. However, I believe this came as a result of me having a talk with my guide during meditation and the conversation with Rose... in allowing the master control to merge with my energy...who knows..

Sight of a Strange Figure


Feb 15, 2009
       After my meditation experience hearing bell sounds and bathed with different tones of light, I went to another base to do some work. Being on that base, kind of dull my happiness and joy from my meditation experience. Deprived of not only from sleep but also from freedom, it became five days of uncertainty.

       I finally made it to my home base and felt happy to be back, but happiness didn’t last when there were soldiers around me with no consideration to others. With only 2 hours of restless sleep, I went to work my usual 12 hours shift as usual. About 3:00PM, I went to my room to lay down just a few minutes. I was talking to my roommate for a couple of minutes when through the conversation, I just dozed up between awake and sleep state.

The funny thing is that I found myself being into deep darkness and suddenly I saw this humanoid figure. He did not look human for sure, but the vision was too blurring to see facial features. It was like the figure was moving toward me at high speed but at the same time at normal speed, enough for me to see that it has arms, legs, and his/her entire body was embed with light strings all over his outfit or body.

As it approached me, the figure raised his right arm and touched my left shoulder, giving me a hell of an electric shock that made me jump in my bed. I was half awake right after the shock; and then I got bathed with blue light. I started to force myself to wake up while still blinded by the light. I have to seat on my bed to yank myself from the state I was---once back to normal, I felt like I drank few cups of coffee, I was wired up and fully awake.

Up to this point, don’t know is the experience was a product of my stress and sleep deprivation. Don’t know who was the figure from, but it’s his/her intention was healing, it really did its purpose and I am very grateful for it. :)

Lights and Sounds during Meditation


       In the last days or so, I have been drained, stressed out and tire. I thought might be the helicopter trip of the other weeks, alone with all the changes going on in my life lately. I been getting new energies on me lately as well, that are hard to explain, which for some reason, they have left me with a constant tingling almost pain on my crown chakra and 3rd eye.

       All these have left me a little confuse at times, lack of memory and out of focus for a couple of days. I just couldn't take it too long and my good friend Joanne did some Reiki on me last night, which it did me, a lot of good.

Despite all the stress and anger I faced after the healing. I went to my room and tried to center myself as well grounding and clear my aura/chakras. I was able to focus despite everything was against it.

While meditating, right after I center myself, I started to hear a men voice, like coming from a radio that is out of frequency, heard him on my left ear like coming through my pillow. Trying to make sense of what he was saying, I gather that he was repeating "Understand, understand, understand". I said to myself, OK, I got that! Now what do I need to understand? Since I didn't hear the voice any more, I tried to focus in my meditation and the unusual happen. I was like bathed into different tones of lights, but the funny thing about it, was that each light had a different tone sound to it. I felt that tone sound so loud and deep right on my 3rd eye and crown chakra, it was almost unbearable. It was a sound like coming from a Chinese Gong.

I think the meditation lasted me maybe 10 to 15 minutes human time, but it last long enough, for me to remember everything I felt and saw. Among the colors I saw, there was from light to dark blue, silver gray and blue gold color, each with a different tone to it. I start to wonder, does any of you have this experience before, am I started finally to loose it? Or falling out of my tree kind of thang?LOL

Feb 5th, 2009--Update on this meditation:

Last night I came to make sense with it, when I finished to read my book "Connecting with the Arcturians" from David K. Miller. The last paragraph of the book was talking about that when you are in the path of accession into another realm or dimension. Your DNA code opens up, code by code and the sign of that opening, is by hearing sound and bathed by "energy" rays of light. I am going to write the quote from the book below:

When a code within you is ready to open, you will hear a certain tone, and you will suddenly experience a burst of energy within your being. As part of their mission, the Arcturian groups of forty will help to activate others so they can also receive the energy burst and experience the opening of the codes. Some of you already had these openings. Once you have experienced the energy burst and the opening of a code, you be able to receive specific instructions on what to do next. You have known about the example of Moses going up to Mount Sinai. he received a burst of energy, and the codes were opened for him. Moses was then given instructions on what messages to deliver to his people.

This passage on the book, it really raised antennas on me as a reminder of my meditation experience. The answer is within us at all times, its in our DNA higher self. To raise our body in vibration to another dimension, our DNA code has to be open to accept the flow of energy that our bodies will encounter during accession or transport to the next dimension. You are on the 3rd dimension now, you next evolution step is to move on from this dimension to the next. You can acquire this through meditation, high states of consciousness.

I must tell you, when I read this, I was crying of happiness, I couldn't stand myself of how happy I was. Wonder if others have the same experience as me...

Meditation Experience: Unusual lights sightings


       I am very sure we all have our share of unusual experiences but in the past week or so, I have noticed something unusual with me. I usually stay in darkness in my room with just a low light to read at times, it kind of give me a sense of calmness at times. However, after turn off the lights and done my nightly mini meditation prayer, I open the eyes to look around the room and then when I close the eyes again, with my eyes close I can see a light above my head. I open my eyes again and there is nothing but darkness but when close again, there is again a bright light over my head.


       I have ignored it since I have to sleep, need to work the next day anyway. However, last night was quite unusual. I was unease on my sleep due to coldness in the bedroom, tossing from one side to other, almost fighting with my blankets. I finally found a spot that I was comfortable with and my inner voice I guess told me "don't worry, while you are in Iraq, something amazing will happen" I smiled to myself, thinking to myself I better believe my inner voice because I have no other choice, LOL.

As soon as I close my eyes the bright light over my head appeared again but more brighter than before. This time I decided to pay attention to it and noticed that it turn from bright white to a champagne color but as I pay attention to it, noticed like the light was turning like the snow flakes view on a magnify lent. I couldn't make much sense of what I was looking at but I got tire of looking at it, that I fall to sleep. Don't remember any dreams, just that the alarm sound right after and I have to get ready to go to work, so here I am writing about this. Wondering if any of you ever see something like this before. Would like your input on this, since I don't know what to make out of it.

Experiencing My Ghostly Body: Out of body experience


       December 3rd 2008: I went to bed about 9:00pm, I was not sleepy yet, but then I decided to meditate taking in consideration some advice my good friend Rose told me about meditation. I remember I called upon my spirit community, to come with love and only for my highest good. I focus in one question for them “What do I need to learn within me, to open my spiritual gifts in order to help people?” I figured it was kind of tough question since I didn’t get any answers as quick as I have in other times.

       However, something unusual happen during this meditation, something for which I was not quite prepared to happen yet. I remember that while focusing on the question, I suddenly wanted to go home. Not my home in USA, but my home away from earth. I tried again to focus on my question, while laying on my bed. I must doze out or got deep into trance.

I heard someone knocking my door which was double lock. The funny thing was, I remember sitting up right on my bed and walked towards the door. I tried to unlock the door, but noticed that my fingers keep missing the key. I keep trying and then noticed my skin transparent but with an unfamiliar glow. I tried to open the door, but my hand keeps going through the knob. That’s when I realized that I was out of my body.

I don’t remember returning to my body, but do recall that it took me a while to be able to open my eyes. Don’t know why I couldn't’t open them. After I gain control of my physical body, I got up…and the feeling of being drugged was almost overwhelming. I managed to go towards the door to check the lock and noticed that it was lock, as I left it before I went to bed.

I did not feel scare or concern about this experience, since its not the first time, however the question still remain—hopefully I will get my answer soon.

Meditation Experience: The Spiral Tunnel


       
I found myself conscious during my meditation/dream stage, to see something very unusual. I noticed a grey cloud before me but it was going in a spiral upward like it didn’t have an end. The view reminded me of the toy "Slinky" moving side to side but still holding its original form of a tube.


       The opening was getting close to me like I was supposed to go through it—I went a little forward into it and everything turn orange color—I couldn’t see the cloud any more. I must say this was a weird awakening of my consciousness, in which I believe I saw the passage between my body/soul—or perhaps the passage between this world and the spiritual one.

Hearing Voices During Meditation

I usually don't have out of ordinary experiences when I meditate but when I do, they amazed me a lot. Yesterday, I did another attempt to do automatic writing. I closed myself in the computer room, and in order to avoid outside noises, I place some headphones that muffled noises commonly use on shooting ranges. Anyway, I got my writing pad and while holding my amethyst pendulum rock on one hand, I started to do my usual ritual of chakra cleansing then I tried to place my mind in blank. This last thing, usually don't last long since all the thoughts you don't usually think they come around.

While I was in quite state, I always look for anything that might not come from me at all. Something that not even sound like me. Well, sure enough.......out of no where, I started to hear on my right ear, a Spanish speaking voice, Not mine, since this one sound like a Mexican man. He was talking real fast and at times he slow down for one word or two. I tried to tune of what he was saying and realized that he was not talking to me, he was talking to someone else but felt like they were right behind me. Like they were wondering about what I was doing and debating among themselves trying to figure it out. I didn't say anything or question anything. Nerveless, I took the headphone off for a minute and the voices stopped, put them back on and then heard the voices again but more far away like the sound was coming from a far away distance. I stopped the meditation since my cats were scratching the door wanted to come in and cuddle as usual. However, I did find this very unusual and wonder if anyone else have this experience before. ???

Ants On My Meditation

During my meditation today, after my ritual grounding, centering, cleansing. I found myself inside a hole belonging to an ant's colony. I saw 3 ants eating the yellow crust of my hidden place. Thru then I could see the blue sky but it was so real, so vivid and disturbing being in that situation. I couldn't concentrate no more on my meditation. The question now is, what is the meaning of ants on spirituality if they have a meaning? Why I was in that situation? I guess I will find my answers as I go thru my path but if anyone have any knowledge about ants and spirituality let me know.

According with the book of "Dream Symbols" of Klaus Vollmar, dreaming about ants refers to a "classical example in psychology of a disturbed nervous system. It is necessary to reevaluate your obligation to the community. Become more actively involved. There are tendencies to isolation. Patient and persistent work will bring benefits, or you may be too much of a busybody. It may also be a sign of too much turmoil, excitement, and nervousness. A possible warning signal: Unwind, make time for self-contemplation. Ants are also considered a sign of intelligence.
