So awhile ago I figured out that if I wake up an hour and a half early, I can just keep taking 10 minute naps until I wake up ready to face the world. Yes, friends, I have discovered the "RESET" button for life. Okay, I didn't do it for that purpose. There's actually a little more to it.
Someone made a comment that dreams are not controlled by normal physics of time and space, a 3 minute dream can feel like it lasts for days. Wanting to experiment with this, I came up with the 10 minute nap idea. Like I said, wake up an hour and a half earlier than usual, which puts me at 7am and probably sounds like sleeping in to most of you, and then take 10 minute power naps. I use my phone's timer to keep me on schedule.
While I used to hardly remember my dreams, I now have in-depth vivid dreams that I can perfectly recall every single time I nap. What's more, is I can make requests too. I don't always dream of what I request, but it works often enough that I'm going to start working on that aspect too.
This experiment really kicked into gear when I began using Jadeite under my pillow. It only works when the stone is charged though, and it needs regular cleansing via Selenite. At Beltane I fastened a skeleton bead carved from bone onto the the jadeite stone and made a necklace out of it. Jade and Jadeite are both great stones for dreamwork, and they have a connection to the air which is a little bonus for me.
I don't really know exactly what I'm doing with this, mostly I'm just glad to have more dreams to take apart and analyze.
