Visitation by Quan Yin

From a dreaming/channeling session on March 22, 2008:
I realized a common thread between many who “feel a storm coming;” even old friends who I have never had a spiritual/intuitive discussion with in the past. I wondered if there was more I should be doing so I decided to plan an intentional dreaming session.

Before going to bed I decided to ground myself and ask Tara for help and guidance as to what I and others should do to better prepare and help.

As I grounded I felt more and more tired…as I fell asleep I asked for a dream. My last thought was that I kept getting Tara & Quan Yin mixed together in my head.
In my first dream a terrible entity threatened us and appeared near the wall of the room i was in. I was feeling fear. I’m with someone male who is a lover or partner. He tried to protect me from the entity and it’s not working…the threatening face is still hoving near the wall.

I enfolded both of us in blue light…it’s strong and bright. I’m so confident and powerful but recognize the great danger. I loudly call out, “Isis!” The power of Isis comes through me, into me…I am Isis. I realize that I have winged arms wrapped around my partner…

(I wake up.)

Then I sleep, again. I’m in that state between wake and sleep…that state where I feel awake but paralyzed…and I slip back and forth between waking and dream in jerky starts several times.

I’m dreaming again…I express my gratitude and love for the previous dream and see someone flying towards me and through my bedroom window in the moonlight. No, she is floating or swimming towards me and we are surrounded by blue with moonlight shining down from the surface, above. We are both underwater and surrounded by blue and blue light. It is peaceful and I feel a sense of love surround me…I’ve never felt a sense of love this powerful.

I realize it is Quan Yin…she is in a white gown with her dark hair in a simple bun on the top of her head. I’m seeing her all in outline, every detail is perfect…she is transparent, though.

As she nears me and raises her face she transforms (or dissapears) and it is a long, scaley fish creature that actually makes contact with me. Again, the creature is somewhat transparent and every detail, every scale is shown in detailed outline. When the creature touches me I feel something moving through me, the energy is transforming something inside me. Extreme gratitude washes over me and I wonder what gift I’ve been given… I hold my hands up in front of my face and look at them, front and back, and purple/violet rays and energy radiated from them. I kept looking at them, transfixed.
As I awoke from this dream I received a word, “Ra!” and it was connected to Isis–or came from her.

Now, awake, I pondered this Ra thing…I had no idea what a Ra was. Was it some object or an ancient meditation symbol? No idea.

I did a little poking around on the internet and learned that Ra was the ancient Egyptian sun God and most certainly connected to Isis. Beyond that I’m not sure what this means to me.

I was thrilled to also learn that Quan Yin is connected with water and a wonderous water dragon…that is what the long, scaly fish creature, was…I was certain! I also learned that she is connected to something called the Violet Flame or Violet Ray and that it is a healing energy that has the power to transmute karma from other lifetimes. Hmmm.

later, my son Chris showed me a drawing he had made prior to my dream. It was a wheel of the 4 directions…Isis & Ra were representing two of the directions.

dream: a gift from a dove

Another communication through a dream:

I was outdoors in my dream and with Chris and Joey and Tito. I looked up and a dove was circling and flying down towards me. She had a branch or twig in her beak.

I stretched out my hand, palm upturned, and she landed, laid the twig down, and kissed my hand several times (little, gentle pecks with her beak I knew, somehow, were kisses.) A bright light or energy field surrounded us, time seemed to still, and I felt/knew something special was about to happen.

Then she hopped off my hand onto my left shoulder, put her beak right into my ear, and spoke in chirpy, clear words that only I could hear.

“Get more rest so that you can dream more,” she said. “You need to dream more.”

Simple enough, but true. Lately I have not been dreaming as much. I’ve been busy and not getting as much rest and dreaming is the strongest and clearest way for spirit to communicate with me.

The the bird kissed me on the hand, again, and asked she could stay with me a while and rest up a bit. I agreed and she continued on with us for a while, riding on my shoulder.

I realized this was a great opportunity, with spirit speaking through this bird, to get some more answers. I proceeded to ask a few things and the bird, putting her beak in my ear, each time, answered each question in her low, clear chirpy voice that only I could hear.

I do not remember any of those questions or answers, unfortunately.

I do remember that the bird followed us into the car and rode with us to our next destination.

A dream about Chris

I had a dream this morning around 5am. I dreamt that I was with a group of people…all guys, now that I think about it. We were meeting to discuss our spiritual experiences…sort of felt like a support group. Unexpectedly, my son walked in the door. It was him but he was wearing a fur hat/headdress that was white with horns. Somehow I translated that as a white bison/buffalo skin/horns. He looked surprised like he was not expecting to see me there. I felt a little of that disappointment like, “Oh, Mom is here,” or thought that I did. As I often do when we meet in such circumstances in real life I didn’t rush up or say anything but kind of turned to everyone else as if nothing had happened. I saw/felt him come up behind me and put his hands on my shoulders and cheek to my head. I felt pure love radiate out from him and started crying for the emotion of it.

A loud crash or sound woke me, not sure if it was my dream or if it was real. When I woke I realized I was crying.  The emotions were so strong with me.

I don’t know what this means until I hear from him next. I hope he’s alright and he was just journeying and sending his love.

Meaning of the dream, my totem, etc.

I have a lot of great positive things to talk about. The Goddess is answering me so frequently and has led me on many magical adventures (chance meetings, finding someone lost in the woods, brought me company from nowhere when hiking alone and scared) this past week or so.

Also went to see Gwendolyn out at Wanderland. She listened to my cougar dream and offered some info/advice and really believes that Cougar is my totem. Not what I would have chosen. The cougar man in my dream matches the description of the wild man/mabon exactly. She said him hunting me meant that he claimed me and not to be afraid. She, too, thought it was a test and super powerful.

Then we talked about the equinox ceremony and things.

I really like her.

I’m sure blessed. I feel, with certainty, that I have been called to service of the Goddess and that it happened the first time when I was up here an I was 15. Strange, eh?

But there it is.

And, like the she-cougar, I want all of my cubs to be safe, happy and thriving.

Dreamed of a wild, cougar man…

Had a disturbing dream last night after my hike 3/4 of the way up Neahkahnie Mt. In my dream I heard a cougar scream then I heard an animal I thought was the cougar pacing back and forth on the deck right outside my bedroom. In my dream I stood up, scared and looked out the window by my bed. I could see the dark outline of an animal that looked like a cougar. When the creature moved more into sight I realized it had a head/ears of a cougar but it had a full rack of antlers and a man’s face. It seemed to be, in fact, a man with a cougar skin and head over him and large antlers.

He appeared greasy and dark like he had blackened himself for hunting with soot and grease but I couldn’t make out much but the eyes. He appeared amped up and almost drugged into a hyper state.

He had a large bow and arrow and I realized he had it pointed at me like he was hunting me. I opened a door or cabinet up between me and the window and thought that I felt/heard a large arrow piercing it.

I woke up pretty freaked out and couldn’t go back to sleep for a few hours.

————–

I had to think about this one for a while to try to figure out what it meant. I’ve heard a cougar scream here while awake a couple of times, so that’s an understandable part of the dream.

The antlered man kind of seemed like an actual spirit entity/messenger.

The antlered man could either be related to some of the early native american presence here…it feels like a very spiritually loaded area here and there are many, many legends about this I didn’t even know about until I was compelled to do research after having this dream.

The antlered man could represent Herne but what is the cougar all about instead of a stag? And why is he hunting me? I was terrified.

I have been really terrified twice while hiking alone here on the mountain and in the woods by the ocean. I felt very much like I was being watched/followed. I read about those places later and they are both said to have a lot of spiritual significance. The name of the mountain, Neahkahnie, actually means dwelling place of the supreme diety and the indigenous people thought of it as the “sleeping warrior.” The native americans told a lot of tales of entities in the forest as well as the spirits of spaniards who died there.
