Premium MemberAstral Travel

zooming around earth
in the middle of the night
astral travel making me faster than a speeding train
I am in awe of what I can do
while I sleep

Premium MemberAstral Travel

I wake up feeling like I’ve been on a journey
Vivid images of strange apparitions in sight,
In exotic places, far away from earthly soil
Could it be that I’ve been on an astral flight,
That I left my body behind during the night?

And, possibly, I’ve not yet learned to navigate
Choosing the destination of my nocturnal trips
So fascinating, so filled with rapt wonderment,
With concentration and a vision on my lips
I may with self-awareness now enjoy these blips.

I am acquainted with some who astral travel
Almost nightly to distant places in the universe
Though rarely speaking of their cosmic ventures,
Some have suggested it is, thus, a madding curse
To see what they cannot describe, sometimes worse.

Premium MemberAstral Travel

Zephyr takes my soul east
She goes without comment
Understanding her ultimate destination
Knowing it was predetermined
Before this incarnation

My body lifts and lowers in melodic rhythm
We are unconcerned, it is mere flesh.
She slumbers peacefully on the bed.
Nightly REM activity continuing 
As active as in my babyhood

One day Zephyr will bring my soul home
I will feel beloved and respected
Not a final journey for my spirit self
Rather a resting place in between incarnations
My flesh self gasps loudly; I was too harsh on reentry

Premium MemberEscaping My Body Every Night

I am not body lingering at night
My husband says "you are never there"
I agree, for I am gone. 
When I hit the body so hard that I wake up shuddering and shaking
Why I do not slow the soul down prior to reentry
I do not know
I suspect it has something to do with my lack of patience
And my child-like self

Premium MemberMy Nightly Travels

Body has insomnia, soul and imagination have astral travel
Distressing eve, breathing cannot get comfy
My dreams follow prominent star lit path through cosmos

silver cord stretches from planet to planet
my reposing body pretends we are still in there
exuberant snoring at the shell, big pretense

soul and imagination hold hands, ready for nightly travels
angelic singers and delightful animals are found along the path
astral travel spies forever-after-ancestors, all with advice of course

we receive instructions from our spirit guides, 
our power animals vie for attention – wolf, deer, and eagle.
I wake up sputtering, shocked I was asleep
Something had hit my chest hard.
Soul and imagination have returned.
Horrible landing re-entry.

Premium MemberWhen I Astral Travel

I saw a tiny body on the bed
She needed a dye job; she had a streak at the part
It was gray
Who was that?
Why was she next to my husband?
With a gasp I was back in my body
Realizing at once I had been high in the corner a second earlier
This was my first time

The next time I was a bit more open to the idea of astral travel
Luckily I had a friend who knew about it, and it seemed less frightening
I popped out right before I went into REM sleep
Found myself in the same place on the ceiling, watching
My body was snoring, but I was up here
How can I do that? I wondered.

I got more adventurous with each pop out.
By the fifth or sixth time, I began to experiment
I could think of a school yard and I would immediately be there.
Eventually I could think Omaha or St Louis and I would be there
It was a wonderful way to travel

I never felt stressed or worried that I would not be pulled back
Always feeling the silver cord that attaches my soul to my body
I was forty when I discovered my father had been a traveler too

Premium MemberMy Clickety Clackety Mind

My mind goes clickety clackety
Down yesterday’s track.
I chase it hard to slow it down.
And possibly bring part of it back.
It spits in my face,
And kicks my shins.
With my imagination in full throttle,
I never do win…

My mind is dancing and prancing
Alone in the dark, 
Not waking me up.
On zone auto-stark.
I sleep like a baby 
For my spirit is away
In Omaha or Europe
on Astral Travel today.

My mind is shushing the soul
As it reenters my body.
I wake up swiftly, my eyes connecting again.
The lightness of the day has me ready to win.
My soul and my mind and my imagination too
Are clearly in charge of everything that I do.

Premium MemberMy Mindless Dream Dance

Charisma wafts into my dreams
Teasing my wise brain dendrites
Showing them connections
to my pathway toward empathy.

Enthusiasm is squarely winning
Taking charge of my artistic muse
who is persuasive with other 
areas of my mindful schemata

Childlike joy shows rapt interest
in the affection charisma is instilling
as I sleep, listening to the lively,
loving melody of the cosmos

Premium MemberAstral Travel In Dreamstate

astral travel 
luxuriously lingering
among the stars

cosmic awareness
ghostlike fantasies
nightly ventures

extending past the horizons
reaching far out galaxies
soul spiriting forward

Hearing angel music
unleashed, uncaged, uninhibited
Silver cord tethering you to body but barely

astral travel
highly recommended
during dreamstate

Premium MemberAstral Travel

I floated with delight in interstellar space
free to enjoy the brilliance of the stars
up close and uninhibited

Has anyone else ever been this lucky? I wondered
I doubted it, but I am always being selected for
travel outside the ordinary

For God smiles on me, and allows me 
a gift others know nothing about
Astral travel.

Soul travel at night outside my fleshy
cumbersome earth body
I am so glad to leave her back on the bed snoring loudly

I zoom around the Milky Way
marveling at my gift,
loving every being of my soul
and every entity in the universe

Thank you God for 
the best gift 
of all

Premium MemberAstral Soul Palace Loves and Reveres Me

Magical mystical soul palace 
of my heart-felt dreams, 
Are you surreal as you seem?

Polar bear guards, watching as I sleep,
Turquoise opal turrets, 
with diamonds so deep.

Twinkling steps lavished with 
lights of lavenders and turquoise, 
glistening in my dendrite pond,

sprinkled with starlight magic, 
inspired by my night faeries,
Showing me love and light

Keeping me safe until daybreak
as my soul has split, and the part
that needs to travel is no longer in body

But the other part, 
nurtured by this magical mystical
soul palace, is having a fine rest indeed.

Feeling loved and revered.

Premium MemberNightly Travels

My night time travels 
take me to other worlds,
places I can only dream of here.

Satisfying my thirst for adventure,
my psyche-me  and soul-me fly away
with happy winged feet as the body 
surrenders to REM sleep.

Leaving the body in the bed, snoring
happily, oblivious and unperturbed 
that soul-me is gone, traveling lightly.

Free at night to sail away, to
exotic places, to meet people not often
present on this planet.

We do not limit ourselves, psyche-me
and soul-me.  Until the body starts to rouse, 
we are soaring from galaxy to galaxy, uninhibited
by anything cumbersome or heavy.

The silver cord zaps us back often way too
suddenly, without warning.  The body gives
a loud quick gasp as we re-enter the chest
too hard, and too quickly.  The fingers start
shaking; the body 's face shakes, as it wakes
up with a start.  

We come back more and more often in this
way, as we are so happy to make our escape
and play.  The older we get, the more playing
we do, practicing for the big release.

Premium MemberAstral Travel

Ever dream that you were travelling
on the astral plane at the speed of light
flashing forward and back through time

Floating in the air free as a bird
the only tie your cord to your body
an empty shell as you journey afar

Gliding around the world in hours
instead of days seeing all the wonders
slipping silently through people's homes 

Hurling on until a sudden tug
has you fleeing back to your shell
landing in it all in disarray

Startling awake and out of sorts
you make heavy weather of the day
grumpy and moody not knowing why

Once your astral spirit leaves again
and travels far and wide through time
then gently returns to settle in smoothly

Now you wake refreshed and renewed
your body and spirit joined together
in  perfect harmony with each other
