The Western Gate

Approaching Gemini, the fifth division of Twelve in the year, Duality.
In lucid dream I sometimes will to be conscious in the here and now in the place that I dream. Not in the sense of the astral world or as remote viewing or as we ‘send the fetch’ but actually in the here and now. This happens a few times, but never able to fully satisfy the condition. It is, as it is, awakening in the real world, albeit in spirit vision which looks much like an illuminated negative photograph. Nothing is out of place as it would be in an an astral vision, it is as if you awaken in a sleepwalk, though obviously it is the consciousness awakened in real time, here and now of a real place. There does seem to be some barrier between where I am able to visit in this state, almost as if there are boundaries that the mind cannot break, these boundaries perhaps are those created by the kinds of people in whose presence I wish to visit. It gives credence to the rituals that people do when say creating pentagrams to prevent trespassers.
Tonight, or more early morning about 3a.m…. No that’s nothing to go with witching hour it just happens to be the best phase for lucid dream work, unless I go to sleep a lot later or a lot earlier. … I will conduct a ritual. It is drawing on the essence of fear.

I will lucid dream that I am within the ‘Amityville House.’ I will then attempt to become conscious at that time which would be the time it is now as I write this, 22;25. (Of course my local time will be 03:25) Regardless of whether the stories regarding Amityville are true or not, the inherent, for want of a better word, aura created by the ‘manna’ of all thoughts directed to this place create the environment that I would need to arouse. I have been show a symbol in which to bring forth into one form all the inherent fluid creations that have been imagined. It is much alike a broken circle and the symbol of Gemini within without a threshold. The entity will arise into this, the ceremony will not finish, the circle will not be closed. I will face it, feel both it’s repellant force, it’s attracting force and by this will understand it’s equilibrium. I have not been told to banish, nor disperse, but to leave the circle open, as you will creating a flow, vortex of that emanation to be fed by the imagination of the observers and thinkers. My first initial response to this task was to dismiss it completely, it’s absurd and the sort of thing I would have dreamt of decades ago, much like ‘sending a fetch’ to visit Borley Rectory, or the Enfield house. These places of populist ‘horror’. But, let’s see what happens.
