As these tests are ongoing it's important to note failures too.
The following night my brother ( unbeknownst to me) was trying it again with the mental image of a steam iron. Nothing remotely connected appeared in my dream recordings.
Similarly, taking advantage of the time difference, I tried to be the sender in a test with a psychic prone friend in America. But he woke with no dream recall.
This morning a frankly anticipated complication. ..the more people I tell about it the more people decide they're going to try and invade my dream. So two people were making the effort this morning. One I was expecting, a friend in Australia, the other - Y again - I wasn't.
The results in both cases were frustrating. Neither of the target images or thoughts put in a clear and obvious appearance in my dreams. But in each case there was a heavy hint of them in a dream recording made a few hours before either one of them was even trying to "send'. If they are rated as "hits" at all they presumably fall back into the category of precognition which is - for me at this point - of little interest since I need no more examples of it.
Y was concentrating on a painted image of two Vikings fighting each other in the snow, one with axes the other with a mace. A couple of hours earlier I described in passing while recounting a dream that two of the celebrities in it were "having a sword fight" and then a little further on say " there's some kind of battle or challenge going on. "
A hint, an allusion, a suggestion..but a hit? If the dream in question was simultaneous with the act of sending I'd probably say so. But preceding the "send" and out of context it's merely tantalising.
The Australian's effort was even more opaque in it's possible dream manifestation.
He was using simple written words. The two word name Peter Pan.
Again before he did do ( although to be fair he already knew what he was intending to send) I had recorded this intriguingly apt dream description. In it I was reading an article in a newspaper where it says:
"Even the word 'surname' is from an Australian (Aboriginal) word. Sur means name. So it's really Name Name"
