Monday, September 21, 2026: 4:02 PM: I finally remembered what I was talking to Michelle Walsh about in my dream this morning. I was telling her about the most recent meditation technique I’ve been using since reading Neven Paar’s book, The Magus.
I don’t know why the brain works this way when it comes to dream recall. But all the material says that it’s not uncommon for you to forget all or part of a dream and then remember it again at some point during the day, often when you least expect it.
What does this recollection tell me? I’m thinking this was my inner witch’s way of prompting me to continue using the meditation technique, which I’ve backed off from the usage of over the past few days.

A resident of Newtonian Gardens in New Jersey, he is a witch in the nontraditional sense: an explorer of consciousness, meditation, dreams, intuition, manifestation, and the strange territory where inner experience meets everyday reality. Accepting claims solely on the authority of a teacher, book or tradition isn’t in his DNA. His approach is experimental rather than prescriptive: he tries various techniques, observes what happens, journals, questions, and adjusts his practice accordingly. For him, witchcraft is a conscious practice of working with attention, intention, language, and intuition to explore personal transformation. He writes honestly about that ongoing experiment, sharing successes, failures, doubts, surprises, and unanswered questions here. He does not claim absolute answers as to what an experience means.
