The mind is the tool and what is prominent in your mind will often manifest in a quiet time.  Obviously the children have a real reference.

Hi Al,

In my opinion, you being a fellow remote viewer, I think you are having spontaneous remote viewing experiences. I have them all the time and hardly ever do they involve myself or loved ones. To give you an idea last week I got an image of a three car accident at the main intersection where I llive. I called my wife on the cell. phone right away and told her to be careful. Half an hour later my wife was heading back home and saw the accident had happened at the intersection.
The reason we get information on unrelated events is at that time our clairvoyance was just free-flowing and picking up random pieces of psychic info. out there. If we don't have the intention to remote view a specific person, place etc, or if our focus sways, this is what happens (to me at least).

Love and Light

Is it remote viewing or astral travelling?  They are close cousins.  Neither of which is beneficial without a lot of protection and grounding in the earth world first.

Hi again spiritalk
This is what I'm here for – to get help from you guys and to learn.
I do get dreams where I travel, but this only happens about once a year tops. These are always very vivid and in the last one I could even tell the type of bricks in the wall. It's always places that I've never been and I always visit there after the dream. The last one, about six months ago, was so startling that I jumped right out of bed.
Is it possible to control these things and what grounding do you recommend?
L&L
Al

There are spheres around the world in ever decreasing vibration (spirit is finest) and the astral is the mental world inner-penetrating the earth energies.  

We can begin our day with a ritual of affirmation and visualization.  Start with a positive affirmation of your own good.  This sets you up for positive approach for the whole day.  

Then visualize a protective bubble (similar to one blown from a child's soap bubble pipe - complete with the rainbow patch - rainbows are such mystical/magical symbols of bridges, connections, communication and complete with a pot of gold (prosperity) at the end) around you completely.  It is a filter of all negativity from within and without.  

Keeping ourselves at peace can be done by re-affirming our own good during the stresses of our day.  And making it the last thought before sleep can help diminish astral dreaming.  

When you wish to open to the spirit realms - it is important to use exercises that take you higher than these gross energies into the finer spirit realms.  To do this we meditate on nature - a scene that keeps us grounded in our own peace through affinity with the scene we visualize.  When ready to invite your guides, provide a symbol and a seat.  Taking this from nature also, helps to energize the whole peace centre.
