There is very little difference between alternate timelines and infinite potentialities. They are, essentially, the same thing, differing only in the way our souls perceive them.
For some, it is enough to simply think of a possibility and decide whether or not to act upon it. But for those who breathe the woven fibers of the Construct, every possibility unfurls its petals in the mind’s eye before traversing the richly painted corridors of unborn memory, effortlessly detailing the path that follows.
To those with three eyes, every possibility becomes an alternate timeline waiting only for us to consciously step into the body of our parallel selves, letting go of one life in favor of another. We are the true time travelers, ever changing, ever choosing, ever conscious.
We are the future of our own earths.
The Veil Between Worlds
February 3rd, 2024
I felt the familiar tingling spread through my limbs. Warm and exhilarating, my soul body began to unhinge but these were still the early days of my out-of-body experiences, the learning days, and my soul simply fell out of my physical body before tumbling off the bed to slump on the floor at the foot of my dresser.
I smiled derisively as I lay in an un-formed puddle of soul-substance and consciousness. Slowly, my atoms reassembled into the structured echo of my physical body still upon the bed.
That’s better, I thought. The familiarity of form always helped anchor the experience into my memory.
As I soaked in a moment of stillness, I began to notice that everything seemed a little blurry. It felt as though I had a piece of dark muslin fabric or something like a cheesecloth placed over my vision. I could see through it but not clearly.
It’s a veil. I thought with a sudden sense of knowing. The veil between worlds...
What paid subscribers got in the latest issue of Dearest Waking Dreamer...
Dear Jess,
What a perfect example of an apocalypse dream!
The main concept of your dream is most likely exploring the recent events affecting Minneapolis (I.C.E. agents and their interactions with the public).
Your dream gets rolling when Bob Saget is kidnapped. His kidnapping likely represents a particular story you noticed in the news regarding the disappearance, kidnapping, or unlawful deportation of someone. Bob represents the every-day person, the parent, the neighbor who's life has been wrongly upended.
As you acknowledge his kidnapping (what you see in the world that is wrong), your concerns are dismissed. I would ask yourself when you started noticing the wrongness in waking life...
What I enjoyed doing last week: Working on my core strength. After my c-section in January and carrying a very large baby I'm finally starting to see some improvement. I can't wait to get back into weightlifting! (Though that's still a ways off...)
What I enjoyed reading last week: Several dream submissions for Dearest Waking Dreamer. You guys are having some wild experiences out there... Future issues incoming!
What I loved watching last week: My 10 week old son learn how to grasp a toy in both hands and bring it to his mouth! It's amazing what blows you away as a parent 😂
What I listened to on repeat last week:LIGHTS GO OUT by John Summit. Sometimes you just need good hype music.

Dream Notes from Meg BartlettApril 20, 2026 You all know I got into dreamwork by first exploring my own nightmares but what you might not know is that they included frequent episodes of fear-based sleep paralysis complete with my very own sleep paralysis demon (yay!)... But sleep paralysis doesn't have to suck. In fact, it's an essential part of out-of-body experiences! So how the heck do you get from creepy shadow in the corner to traveling across the universe?
