Hi all,

Been noticing lately that when I project or in a dream, I'm often someone else. That is, I am a completely different individual and perceive things from the viewpoint of that individual (no reference to what I know of my current physical existence (middle aged male).

I could be an elderly lady or a young man. I only realise this when I come out of the projection or wake up from the dream.

Any ideas, anyone?

Perhaps you guides have put you in training to disguise as someone else as help in a retrieval?

It could be that a tendency of your mind was being pointed to by whoever you found yourself to be.

Perhaps you're having experiences through other aspects of your higher self.

Thanks for the replies.

Its strange (and cool) when this happens. The most vivid was a recovery I did where I was just projected into a scene at a motel rooftop poolside sitting in deck chairs by the pool, where I just "knew" everything about the situation (like it had just happened five minute ago).

I was a young woman who's boyfriend/husband (the recoveree) had been waiting there so long for. He said "I've been waiting for you, where have you been?" I instantly knew that he had been waiting there for a long time for "me" to return.

I said something to the effect that I had found a better place and that he should come with me (which he did). I clicked out after that so don't know what happened next unfortunately.

Perhaps you are writing a story in your mind. For instance, I just awoke from a dream which began being about 'me' along with someone from this board. It then morphed into an entire kinda 'creepy' story in which you never know who is the 'crazy' person until the 'end'. My mind explored several scenarios, and it was quite a bit like a movie, complete with dark and grainy 'feel' to it during the changing sequences. In fact, it could be a play of sorts. The funny thing was, I 'was' a different person, one who had a boyfriend who was jealous of my 'dancing lessons'. The end shifted from a murder beside a lonely road to one in which 'friends' take the woman away ('me'/'not me') in the dream because she is 'imagining' things. Well, is she? How would one know? In the 'dream', I mean. In fact, that is one of the replies that Bruce often gives to people here on this board...how do you know you're not dreaming right now? And that is how many people become 'lucid' in the dream, by constantly questioning their reality. Well, this is rambling on and on, but I just awoke from this multi-part, multilayered 'story', which was 'playing out' to several different 'endings'. How would I know to become 'lucid' in a dream in which I was 'playing' a completely different character? Strange questions. Good times.

I often transition into a lucid dream state from C1 while meditating but am still 100% "conscious" of that fact. I haven't clicked out, I just go from everyday reality into that dream state staying lucid throughout the process. I guess thats one of the monroe 22+ focus levels.

That isn't to say that I also often click out into full blown non-lucid dream states without knowing it and then become aware of the fact after I awake.

Hi alcemist I feel you could be dreaming of past lives or you could be starting to develope as psychic,especially if you are senseing of being someone else or feeling someone elses thought and feelings.
