Astral Traveling on Aboriginal Lands

Jaahda Jinnah
Shortly after I arrived onto a remote Indigenous community where I spent some time I had an unusual experience. One afternoon, when I was alone after having done my washing I was hanging it out to dry. Over the paddock a bit, about seventy five yards away there emanated a strange sound; like a low, droning, humming noise. There was no-one in sight and it appeared to be coming from where a collection of wrecked cars were piled up to perhaps be used one day for spare parts.
Now - to an Indigenous person such a sound as this may not always be a good sign.
I pondered it but decided not to dwell upon it. Gwada.

About an hour later I went over the creek and into the main community where I decided to ring my daughter who I had not spoken to in a while.
"Where the hell are you Mum?", she asked in an alarmed manner "I can't get to you". By this she meant that she couldn't connect to my spirit to make any telepathic contact with me. She told me that she was worried she couldn't 'contact' me and that she had then asked that an 'available spirit' get my attention to go ring her. I had not been consciously aware that she wished this. "That explains the humming, droning noise", I thought to myself.
I told her that I would have to ask the 'guardian elders', and native title holders of the community for permission for her to contact me in such a way. This I did this the next day and after that she was again able to communicate with me telepathically.

This experience brings to mind an interesting point; being that astral traveling on an Aboriginal community is very often a highly visible thing. People astral traveling about can be viewed as easily as if they were bodily there. There's no privacy to be gained by being on the astral plane. And astral visitors can be as unwelcome as uninvited visitors. Not only might permission be required to traverse and drive across the roads into such communities but you may also have your inner spirit scrutinized as well.

Keep posted.

    True aborigines do not own the land they use it dwell on it and move on
