Several months ago I had a very vivid and powerful dream regarding Merlin. Though some time has since passed, the emotions that the dream conjured in me remain strong so I felt like passing it on. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.
I often experience a dream-like state whereby I 'leave' my body and become somehow 'detached' from my physical state-almost as if I'm looking around the room yet I can 'see' the dream as it plays out in my mind. Well the following dream sequence occured under these circumstances.
The dream began with a strong calling from Merlin to visit him at his house. I was expecting a secluded grove or forest yet I found myself on a rather dreary council estate (I think somewhere in Essex!). I knocked on the door and was met by Merlin who welcomed me inside. While the outside of the house was rather delapidated and run-down, the inside was full of beauty and light-glorious old oak trees that had grown into the ceiling and walls, and a wonderful smell of wood. Merlin himself was not quite as I had expected. He was a middle-aged man with a wife and several children, all of whom were very much engaged with his magic and his work. He led us outside to the back garden where a large fish pond was situated. It was just like any other suburban garden-we were overlooked by houses on each side, and the evening quiet was punctuated by the shouts and screams of neighbourhood children at play (that was something that stayed with me-the notion of the mundane, ordinary life juxtaposed with the magical and etheral).
Merlin summoned us to gather around the pond and we joined hands (his wife and children too). As we stood, meditating, the water brought-forth a large lump of cheese! It was the funniest of images (I think I remember laughing in my sleep) and it amazed me. Merlin then turned away to enter the house and I immediately followed him, demanding an explanation. I wanted to know how he could do that, how he could conjure cheese from a pool of water. I think I even started spouting something about the laws of thermodynamics (trying to rationalise it all)! Merlin then turned to me and quite serenely told me: "There is more to energy than what you experience in this realm. In fact, there is a whole reservoir of energy available to you, that the vast majority of you never touch upon. But it is there for your use."
I bade Merlin and his family farewell and left. I think I awoke soon after with 'butterflies in my stomach" and a tremendous feeling of being alive with a sense of clarity and creativity. This dream experience has stayed very much with me. I think it taught me that we can create anything (even cheese from pond water!), and that I should not limit myself to the physical knowledge I've gained (something I can grasp mentally but have trouble putting into practice).
I'd be interested to hear what you think......

You have described perfectly the man and the situation of that man who introduced me to this Merlin current.
It is in you, and me and, all of us and, you have been shown one of the keys to working with this energy.
Sadly you will never intellectualise this thing because when you work with it you MUST switch off the mind and let the current work through you. You are simply the means of manifesting what ever the universe desires, into this world. The universe manifested you and in turn you manifest the universe.
That is how we are when we open our eyes.
Take a look at the fool in the Tarot card and gain understanding.
Imagine gliding rather than flying a powered aircraft.
One you feel in control of because you have a man made engine.
The other you trust in the elements to a much larger degree.
So glide and then rid yourself of the glider.
Mark you have a huge mind. Probably one of the best on the planet, and as I have said, and I know you have understood, that can be a problem.
