The Transformative Power of Dreams and the Eighth Chakra

In 1992, while living in the serene Rock Creek area with Sharon, I experienced a dream so profound that sharing it now feels like an act of love and trust. To this day, Sharon is the only one who has heard it, and that was merely because she woke me up from this incredible dream. This dream, a vivid tapestry woven with threads of light and love, continues to shape my spiritual path and understanding of the higher self.

The dream took place in my grandfather’s home, in the very bedroom where I spent countless nights as a child. A “fierce, fiery cluster, or orb, of pure light and love” hovered above me. This entity, though formless, was unmistakably my grandfather. In shamanic terms, I had encountered my eighth chakra, yet in my dream state, I recognized it as my deceased grandfather. This orb of light exuded an overwhelming love that beckoned me towards it.

I felt an irresistible pull to merge with this love light. However, I knew that my physical body was too weak to withstand the intensity of this energy. Undeterred by the potential destruction of my body, I began to rise, eager to join with the light. At that moment, nothing mattered except the profound connection I felt.

In the physical world, my body was convulsing, and Sharon, perceiving my distress, woke me up. The disappointment I felt upon waking was indescribable, as it tore me away from this remarkable experience. Yet, the dream left me with invaluable insights and a deep sense of gratitude— “Grandfather, Great Spirit, Thank You,” resonated within my mind and heart.

This dream marked the beginning of my understanding of the eighth chakra as the doorway between the immortal soul and the earth-bound personality. I realized that to host such high vibrations of love, my physical and mental bodies needed to be dramatically strengthened. This realization propelled me on a path of intense physical training, culminating in my near-elite athlete status by the age of 46.

Fast forward to 2017, and the scenario from my dream played out in my real life, minus the presence of my grandfather’s light. In my fervent desire to share my story of hope and healing, I encountered an incredible surge of energy that brought immense physical and psychological suffering. I knew that if this energy was not channeled correctly, it would destroy my body.

Even now, I hesitate to speak of it, as there is no guarantee my body will endure. Despite accessing an incredible energy field, I remain fatigued. Yet, I know I must write this account of my 1992 dream, as the “God Chills” accompany my words.

The eighth chakra, often referred to as the soul star chakra, is the gateway to our higher self. It connects us to the divine and facilitates the flow of spiritual energy into our physical being. Accessing and strengthening this chakra can lead to profound spiritual awakening and transformation.

However, this process is not without its challenges. The physical and emotional toll of integrating higher vibrations of love and healing can be immense. It requires perseverance, self-care, and a balance between spiritual aspirations and physical limitations.

Dreams, like the one I experienced in 1992, have the power to guide us towards our deepest desires and spiritual connections. They offer a glimpse into the higher realms and provide insights into our true potential. By paying attention to our dreams and the messages they carry, we can unlock new dimensions of growth and transformation.

My journey has taught me that the path to spiritual awakening is both rewarding and challenging. It requires a willingness to confront and transcend physical and emotional limitations. It demands perseverance and a relentless pursuit of self-discovery.

Through my experiences, I have come to understand the immense human potential for growth and transformation. By aligning our physical and mental states with higher vibrations of love and healing, we can achieve a more profound understanding of ourselves and the world around us.

The dream I experienced in 1992 and the subsequent events in 2017 have shaped my spiritual path and understanding of the eighth chakra. They have taught me the importance of self-care, balance, and perseverance in the face of profound spiritual awakening.

To all wellness enthusiasts, spiritual seekers, and thought leaders, I encourage you to explore the transformative power of dreams and the potential of the eighth chakra. By doing so, you can unlock new dimensions of growth and transformation and achieve a deeper connection with your higher self.

For those seeking guidance and support on this journey, I invite you to connect with me and explore the possibilities of spiritual awakening and self-discovery together.

In gratitude and love,

Presently, I am 67 years old, and I am learning how to live the life of a retired person. I am married to Sharon White, a retired hospice nurse, and writer. Whose Death Is It Anyway-A Hospice Nurse Remembers Sharon is a wonderful friend and life partner of nearly 30 years. We have three grandsons through two of Sharon's children. I am not a published writer or poet. My writings are part of my new life in retirement. I have recently created a blog, and I began filling it up with my writings on matters of recovery and spirituality. I saw that my blog contained enough material for a book, so that is now my new intention, to publish a book, if only so that my grandsons can get to know who their grandfather really was, once I am gone. The title for my first book will be: Penetrating The Conspiracy Of Silence, or, How I Lived Beyond My Expiration Date I have since written 7 more books, all of which are now posted on this site. I have no plans to publish any of them, as their material is not of general interest, and would not generate enough income to justify costs. I have taken a deep look at life, and written extensively about it from a unique and rarely communicated perspective. Some of my writing is from 2016 on to the present moment. Other writing covers the time prior to 1987 when I was a boy, then an addict and alcoholic, with my subsequent recovery experience, and search for "Truth". Others are about my more recent experiences around the subjects of death, dying, and transformation, and friends and family having the most challenging of life's experiences. There are also writings derived from my personal involvement with and insight into toxic masculinity, toxic religion, toxic capitalism, and all of their intersections with our leadere. These topics will not be a draw for all people, as such personal and/or cultural toxicities tends to get ignored, overlooked, or "normalized" by those with little time for insight, introspection, or interest in other people's points of view on these troubling issues. There also will be a couple of writings/musings about "GOD", but I try to limit that kind of verbal gymnastics, because it is like chasing a sunbeam with a flashlight. Yes, my books are non-fiction, and are not good reading for anybody seeking to escape and be entertained. Some of the writings are spiritual, philosophical and intellectual in nature, and some descend the depths into the darkest recesses of the human mind. I have included a full cross section of all of my thoughts and feelings. It is a classic "over-share", and I have no shame in doing so. A Master Teacher once spoke to me, and said "no teacher shall effect your salvation, you must work it out for yourself". "Follow new paths of consciousness by letting go of all of the mental concepts and controls of your past". This writing represents my personal work towards that ultimate end.
