Dear crazy, wonderful woman. You were raised in a world that didn’t have the gift of sight you have, so they never tried to really understand and explain it.
Of course, what you saw and experienced was real, but no one else saw it because they were born blind – a sort of blindness that in the long past nobody was afflicted with.
People call such experiences hallucinations, which has in the word a huge statement that such things happened because you ‘are not all there’ – in the head.
But I see you live in the USA, and have a cultural background of having dealings with the Native Americans, a people many of who still have the natural ability to see the sort of things that you did. Maybe you might even have some native blood in you.
But many people who take drugs have had such experiences, not because they were mad, but because drugs such as LSD, cannabis, psilocybin, mescaline, peyote and opium, can produce hallucinations. This is because they allow the dream process to break through into consciousness with less intervention.
So, your experience was the dream process breaking through into your normal awareness. As with dreams, we see people, places, hear things or experience things that appear like real things outside us, but are produced by the dream process. It is not madness, but a way our core self tries to show us important things about yourself.
Your Core Experience is an everyday part of your life. Without it your heart would not beat, your food would not digest, your immune system would collapse, and the miraculous interplay of transactions and processes that take part within your body and consciousness would cease. Nearly all of us take this for granted. It is fundamental to our existence. But mostly we remain unconscious of any real meeting with our core. Many of us have no sense of the wonder and transformation this experience can bring. Also, there are many things about our Core that are often not understood or are misunderstood, that at our core we are male and female, and also we are not fundamentally our body. Sometimes these factors are simply overlooked, or not recognised as being deeply important.
Your meeting with the beautiful sparkling blue woman was a meeting with an image of your core self. It happened because you had ripped yourself open emotionally and revealed a very sensitive and receptive part of you. Of course, you can do it without being ripped emotionally by using such an approach as
