Remoting Viewing

I guess I'm catching up on some posts I should have done last month tonight. The words are flowing, time to get them out. We had an interesting class a few weeks ago, teaching us how to "remote view". The process was viewing a picture that was printed on a piece of paper but out of our sight. We had partners to help us. They got to see the picture and tell us if we were going in the right direction.

I felt like I failed this lesson miserably for a couple of reasons. First and foremost because I was told with my first drawing to start over, I was completely off. Part of the problem I have is seeing the entire image in my head, not vague shapes. My brain completes too much when given a little info. My first impression was of a field and a forest. That's when I was to told to start over. Carrie helped, she sent me back to the astral plane to get the picture again.

In my mind's eye I took the paper, stuffed it into a black leather binder and then walked back to the class with it. Opened the binder and looked at the picture. I saw an Asian temple from below, looking up at one corner of the roof. All I knew was that it was definitely a temple and had a tile roof. I drew the picture as best I could but was fighting it constantly.

When I was done I had written tile roof, temple or shrine and gold & black and drawn a teardrop shape on the page. Along with the scalloping of the roof.

The image that was revealed to me was a middle eastern shrine, a gold and black tile roof in the shape of a teardrop, with scalloped wood working below the roof line. It was only the roof.

I had in fact gotten many key elements. The focus was the roof. It was tile, it was a temple, it was tear drop shaped. My brain got in the way of my interpretation, because the only temples or shrines that I know are Japanese - that is what I saw and I couldn't draw it.

Check out unknowncountry.com and listen to the interview on Dreamland that MF did with Lyn Buchannan, one of the Controlled Remote Viewers that worked for the US government. It will encourage your studies of the "natural" remote viewing you are practicing.
