Daedalus Hyperboreus

“Daedalus hyperboreus”

On Sunday night I had a great experience; I remember that at midnight I was trying to get asleep, and I was lying down on my right side but I felt a something odd, like some kind of energy or a presence right in front of me, despite feeling this presence I felt very calmed and peaceful.

Later that night I remember dreaming myself inside a mall, I visited several stores and suddenly my movements started to slow down that is when I realized entirely that I was dreaming, but next to that the best part started, I tried to wake me but I wasn’t able to move or speak for short moment and then I realized that it was also a dream. At the beginning I did not know what to think, but I remembered that I had a similar experience time ago so I started searching; and I found that I had a lucid dream.

A lucid dream is a dream in which you know you are dreaming. Typically this happens when the dreamer experiences something strange, and when they stop to question their reality, they realize they are in a dream. Lucid dreams happen naturally on occasion, although some people may have them naturally more often than others. The definition of lucid dreaming may be simple, but there are a lot of misconceptions surrounding it.

A lucid dream can begin in one of two ways. A dream-initiated lucid dream (DILD) starts as a normal dream, and the dreamer eventually concludes it is a dream, while a wake-initiated lucid dream (WILD) occurs when the dreamer goes from a normal waking state directly into a dream state, with no apparent lapse in consciousness.

The REM (Rapid Eye Movement) is when a person is dreaming, the eyes move rapidly up and down and vibrate. Scientific research has found that these eye movements may correspond to the direction the dreamer "looks" at in the dreamscape. This has enabled trained lucid dreamers to communicate with researchers while dreaming by using eye movement signals

The first book to recognize the scientific potential of lucid dreams was Celia Green's 1968 study Lucid Dreams. Green analyzed the main characteristics of such dreams, reviewing previously published literature on the subject and incorporating new data from subjects of her own. She concluded they were a category of experience quite distinct from ordinary dreams, and predicted that they would turn out to be associated with rapid eye movement sleep (REM sleep). Green was also the first to link lucid dreams to the phenomenon of false awakenings.

Another reference is the Swedish called Emanuel Swedenborg; he had a great reputation in the science field, and at the age of 56 had a revelation in which he said that Jesus Christ came to his house and he drank a cup of tea with him, Jesus Christ told him that he was worried about the path of the church and he needed him to get the religion back on track so the people could really understand the gospels. So Jesus allowed him to visit heaven and hell through his dreams and share it with the humanity. Through his dream he visited heaven and hell and he wrote several books, his most famous book maybe is “Heaven and Hell” also “Daedalus Hyperboreus”.
