As you journey in the Otherworld, you will meet other beings. Some of them will be projections of yourself, others will be guides, and some will be other travelers. Every being, great or small, has a lesson to impart in the Otherworld. It is up to you to decides if and when and how to engage some of these teachers. The ones I met, will not necessarily be the ones you do. If at any point a being makes you feel unsafe or scared, feel free to break off that contact and leave. Things in the Otherworld can only hurt you if you let them.
With this in mind, I will share an experience I had. In my travels, I often perform mundane tasks such as cleaning my home or cooking food. Once, while sitting beside a campfire, I was approached by another. Hooded and hidden, I never the less, invited the being to sit. he or she, never spoke, only watched the stars and enjoyed the warmth of the fire. Did I learn something? Probably. It was a strange experience. Silence, for many of us is uncomfortable. Sharing a meal or fire with a stranger is not a common experience for us. Our own personal bubbles protect us the waking world from many interactions with strangers, we all bump along, against each other's bubbles with out actually interacting. I am still processing the experience.
May journeys be blessed with experiences and lessons that strengthen and enlighten you.
