I don't know where to start... Does anyone else hear that sound? The one that seems to pull you into your dreams, electricity maybe... Like an eerie buzzing you feel and hear when you realize that your body is not falling asleep and is not in a normal dream state. I know this sound so well. I welcome that creepy sound and the feeling of lift or tugging on my insides like something is lifting or turning me, it usually means that I am in for a night or travel or what I feel are visits. Yes visits...
It's been happening for awhile now, but not often. I remember all of them but to explain it in its entirety would just take to long. One experience begins like I described with the sound and the turning, but when I have the "visitor" dreams there is an unknown presence there with me, it picks me up and points me in different directions, and it frightens me, but I do not move. I know this is not my dream. My awareness of the situation, I am in bed, I am not in my bed, someone is moving me around. The "visitor" has only the outline of a shape but it is big and I feel that this energy is been around forever and has knowledge of everything.
There is a sexual energy also and usually it has its way with me, not always to my disliking. It is not sexual intercourse it is more like a energy force with no boundaries, going under my skin and touching all my nerves with one brush. I can feel it around me sometimes it is heavy on me. It is not here out of curiosity, it is doing a job, it seems, examining me, like I belong to it or something, It is so hard to explain.
The first time it happened I woke up gasping for air and in a panic. I had drifted off for only a few minute in the middle of the day while in the mountains camping with some friends, but they were all out hiking. It was more disturbing then any nightmare, it haunted me for weeks and then I put it out of my mind. Since that time it has happened about six times, always the same thing, pointing me and turning me in the air as I feel weightless when this happens and although it doesn't hurt me I can feel its power and it is a dark energy and sometimes I get scared.
Last night was the last time it happened, I tried to move a little during the examination only to feel pressure on the limbs that moved. I was so awake that I could feel one of my cats jump on the bed next to me where I was laying, I was scared and I felt sick, I started to say the lords prayer out of curiosity and fear but it did nothing, I didn't even get through half of it. I don't know why I am even writing this, the details are so vivid in my mind. I don't really mind when it happens, it fascinates me and I want to stay in my dream even if I am scared.
But I do believe that I am not always alone in my dreams...

I 've had this happen before. Story ideas have come to me in a dream, and solutions to problems. When I was younger, I invented a way to sail my sled on the Lake Michigan ice in my dream. When the wind started up the next morning, I tried it for real and it worked.
Perhaps you've solved problems and have had new ideas in your dreams as well. There's no doubt that it happens, but how do we make it happen more often? Try some of the following.
Keep pencil (or pen) and paper by the side of the bed. Note any ideas you have when you first wake up. This process encourages your mind to generate even more ideas. A tape recorder by the bedside is even better. You can use it without a light and quickly go back to sleep.
- Work on the problem a lot. A period of intense mental work on a problem before sleep, "instructs" the subconscious mind that this is important, and it will continue to work on the problem during sleep.
- Write the problem down, and write down what qualities the solution may have, just before going to sleep. Dreams often utilize real-life elements from the latter part of the time before sleep.
- Practice on simple problems. Get yourself to imagine a new kind of furniture, or a new poem in a dream.
- Turn off the alarm. Wake up without an alarm, and you are more likely to remember your dreams. If you need an alarm for work, do your problem solving in dreams over the weekend.
- When you first wake up, lay still and review any dreams you can recall. This "sets" them in your mind, so you won't forget them. Later you can think back on them, to see if there is anything useful there.
