I had a reoccurring dream every night of my childhood (pretty young, as I remember having it from the room I was in at about age five.) It always started with me in bed. I wake up, and I notice a light coming from the hallway. I get up and follow it. By the time I'm in the hallway, it's going down the stairs to the main floor of our house. I follow it down the stairs and when I get to the bottom I see it turning the corner of the hallway in to the room off of our kitchen. I follow it around into the kitchen and it's headed down the cement basement stairs. I get to the top of the stairs to look down and I see it going around the corner in the basement and out of sight. At that moment, I feel a push from behind and I fall down the stairs. As I'm falling, the door at the top of the stairs closes and I'm in the dark. When I get to the bottom of the stairs, at the moment I would hit the floor I get the feeling of falling and I literally wake up as if I've fallen two or three feet onto my bed. I had this dream every single night until I moved out of my house at 18. Strange side note: I never had it when I wasn't sleeping at home. Sleepovers, camp, etc. When I moved back home in my early 20's (college) I started having it again. To stop it, I moved into the basement. The dream always started from the room I was sleeping in. My sister and I would switch rooms every couple of years growing up, and the dream would follow suit. As a really little kid, I would end up in my parent's bed just about every night after having this dream as it was pretty unsettling. As I got older I learned to just deal with it. It was very realistic, but I couldn't ever change it. Upon reflection after joining this site, I can see that it was most likely an OBE because of the feeling of falling back onto my bed at the end. On a side note, when I moved into the basement and the dreams stopped, this is the time when my astral projections through meditation began. I was interested in this reoccurring dream so I bought a book and tried to lucid dream and now I recognize that what I thought were lucid dreams were actually astral projections. Has anyone else had reoccurring dreams? I've had a few different ones, but this was clearly the biggest and longest.
Hmmmm.. No :P
I don't remember any of my reoccurring dreams, But if you get that dream one more time, Just call that light and stop it. Ask what it wants. Hope it will reply :)
