Our first warmup is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hlntv.com\/article\/2014\/05\/19\/michael-jackson-hologram-billboard-music-awards-2014\">MJ Hologram at the Billboard Music Awards<\/a> yesterday, which for me just proves that Project Bluebeam is alive and well. Speaking of Bluebeam, is this at all related?&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.earthfiles.com\/\">May 19, 2014 &#8211; Dragonfly Drone Emits Blue Beam.\u00a0\u00a0Report upcoming.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI<\/em><em>t rotated so that the \u2018tail\u2019 was facing directly away from me; and then a very tight intensely blue beam of light seemed to project toward my eyes.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Eyewitness, Las Vegas, Nevada<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u2026and then doing some investigation on the status of bluebeam, it looks like it\u2019s been quite a warm meme for the past month or so without any sort of direct appearance on the DreamBot. Blue has been a high color on Project August, but nowhere else on our scope. Nope, don\u2019t worry, the color blue isn\u2019t the number one color for August, so it probably won\u2019t happen in that month (that could obviously change, though).<\/p>\n<p>After accomplishing a quick headline scan through the DreamBot eyes, it looks like \u201ccrops\u201d is quite a big word. We\u2019ll have more on that later, but for now, \u201ccrops\u201d seems to jive almost directly with my search for \u201clife sure felt different,\u201d which was the punchline phrase from yesterdays\u2019s DreamBot run. What headline is in the intersection of these two notions?&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\u2026The new guacamole burger. Can you guess who\u2019s testing this out? McDonalds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em><a href=\"http:\/\/elitedaily.com\/envision\/food\/mcdonalds-is-testing-out-three-guacamole-burgers-and-were-not-sure-how-we-feel-about-it\/600611\/\">Some things just aren\u2019t meant to be. Take these guacamole burgers that McDonald\u2019s is said to be testing out, for instance. I haven\u2019t tried one, but if I know anything about guacamole, I know that I don\u2019t trust McDonald\u2019s with it<\/a><\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I have to admit that of all things I stumbled upon that this was the best direct example of something that appeared old but it was truly different. Go figure it would be a stupid hamburger from McDonalds. Of course, this could be 180 degrees different\u2026the burger could be \u2018new\u2019 posing as \u2018old,\u2019 instead of \u2018old\u2019 posing as \u2018new.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m typing this all out as I\u2019m running a Positive \u2013 Negative scan of the web (with the DreamBot). Since I\u2019m time-limited at the moment, I thought I should alternate and do a tiebreaker from yesterday\u2019s primarily-neutral dream reading. I\u2019m typing all this in as I anxiously await the results. In the meantime, here\u2019s a brief instruction manual on how to remember your dreams\u2026<\/p>\n<h1>How to remember your dreams<\/h1>\n<p>There are many people out there who love the idea of Project August, but they can\u2019t seem to remember any dreams. They want to participate, but can\u2019t quite seem to conjure a dream. Therefore, I decided to do just a brief synopsis on remembering dreams in hopes that some of our readers can benefit.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, everyone dreams. Also important to note is that you don\u2019t have to remember any dreams to get their benefits, because its all done in the subconscious mind as a way to \u201cdigest\u201d all your unrecognized memories and emotions.<\/p>\n<p>However, if we can muster some dream memories, there are hundreds if not an infinite amount of ways to work with those dreams. So how does one remember dreams?<\/p>\n<p>First, get more sleep. Our nightly sleep pattern cycles between the lower, deep, non-dream Delta waves and the higher REM phase where dreams exist. Early on in the night, we spend time \u201ccatching up\u201d on our bodily energy\u2026this is a restoration period. We dream very little in the first few 90-minute phases, but as the night wears on, our REM phases get longer, and thus our dreaming periods get longer. By the end of an 8-hour sleep period, the REM stage may be as much as an hour long (probably more like 20-40 minutes on average). These later stages provide more time to get emotionally involved in the dream, thereby enhancing our natural ability to remember them.<\/p>\n<p>Next, change your attitude about dreams. Dreams can actually be personified, meaning that if we are grateful for our dreams, they actually present more of themselves to our conscious, waking mind. If we disregard dreams, they may evade us.<\/p>\n<p>A pre-sleep intention can kickstart a new dream life! I went a period of over 10 years where I didn\u2019t remember a single dream. Being na\u00efve about dreaming, I erroneously assumed that I had lost the ability to dream altogether. But when I accomplished the following steps, I remembered my first dream in a decade on the very first night.<\/p>\n<p>When lying down to go to sleep, affirm out loud that you will remember a dream. Say it multiple times. In fact, say this periodically throughout the day, \u201cI will remember a dream tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Next, place a piece of paper or journal and a pencil near your bed for easy retrieval when you wake up. Don\u2019t forget to also place a pen light or headlamp nearby so you don\u2019t have to move very far to jot down notes upon waking.<\/p>\n<p>Now, lay your head back on the pillow and close your eyes. Before going to sleep, imagine yourself doing all the following:<\/p>\n<p>1) imagine yourself dreaming,<\/p>\n<p>2) imagine yourself choosing some easy keywords from the dream,<\/p>\n<p>3) imagine waking up but not moving a single muscle,<\/p>\n<p>4) Imagine recalling the keyword and then recalling the rest of the dream,<\/p>\n<p>5) imagine rolling over, turning on the light, and writing down your dream.<\/p>\n<p>You can train yourself to remember keywords. During the day, as you experience certain things, say to yourself a keyword about that incident. If the boss yells at you, the keyword might be \u201cboss\u201d or \u201cyelling\u201d or simply \u201cboss yelling.\u201d If you get into the habit of doing this during the day, you\u2019ll inevitably do it subconsciously at night during your dream, which will make it phenomenally easy to remember a dream.<\/p>\n<p>Upon waking, it\u2019s important to NOT move a muscle. Movement causes the hazy dream memory to slip away. Therefore, just lie there quietly without moving and try to recall your keyword. If you can\u2019t remember keywords or any dream fragments, then start to think of common people in your life, or common events that you frequently experience, in the hopes that one of those will have been in the dream.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, get in the habit of writing or typing your dream memory very soon after waking. The longer you wait, the more dream memory that will be lost. The act of recording dreams will actually attract more dream memories. So even if you don\u2019t remember a dream in the morning, begin to type or write as if you did. Just write anything, letting the mind freely wander. This action may actually invigorate a dream memory, but it will invariably help you chronically remember dreams in the future.<\/p>\n<p>One last thing you can do to recall dream memories is to meditate. <a href=\"http:\/\/nationaldreamcenter.com\/wp\/?page_id=596\" target=\"_blank\">One of the best ways to begin this practice is called mindfulness meditation,<\/a> which if accomplished regularly will inspire so many healthy benefits to the mind, body and soul.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Brendan adds some more information for us\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\n\u201c<em>One thing that helps people unblock dreaming and also be able to remember your dreams is two part. First, a person must write down every memory from the night before, even if it is garbled. This tells the subconscious that the ego is interested to know what\u2019s going on with it\u2019s other self and starts to make things clearer to remember. Secondly, reciting to your higher self before you go to bed that you want to dream and you want to remember your dreams in the morning will heighten the effect. If someone were to practice this on a regular basis, dreaming and remembering the dreams will become second nature.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1>And the verdict is\u2026revolution?<\/h1>\n<p>Still split right down the middle. I\u2019m not kidding\u2026there\u2019s absolutely no overlap in my bi-polar model\u2026.none whatsoever. There are, however, some very interesting phrases that may become pertinent in this week\u2019s headlines:<\/p>\n<p>How\u2019s this for a pretty cool phrase from the DreamBot (this one emerged from the positive run)\u2026\u201dPeople remove positive life through work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I agree, not all work is negative, especially for those who\u2019ve found their mission in life, but haven\u2019t we all felt this statement at various points in our lives? We allow our work life to remove our positivity! The next part of the phrase is also interesting:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSpiritual school power platform.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSpiritual platform power think less.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>How about this one: \u201cReading think energy part high change whole family great feel better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Okay, this is pretty cool, but nonetheless, there\u2019s not much of any useful predictions being made.
