How can I find out if I have an ally?

I have been doing the dark room practice and dreaming with the womb for a while now. For about two months, I keep seeing a very large dog in my dreams. This dog takes on a different color each time. Sometimes it's a mutt/street dog, and sometimes it's a purebred, but it is always big. I am always scared of it at first, but then somehow it manages to come close to me. Sometimes it plays with me and comes onto my bed, and sometimes it just looks at me.

In my most recent encounter, it came and stood over my head. I was sitting on the floor, and it placed its teeth on my neck, but it didn't hurt me at all, and it wasn't even pressing its teeth down at all.

Is this a type of scout? Or is it an ally? How can I tell if it has become my ally?

Has it only ever been in your dreams you’ve seen this entity, and does that include during your womb dreaming practice? What have you been seeing during your darkroom practice?

I have only seen this entity in my dreams. However, after doing the darkroom practice, and after that, the womb dreaming practice during which I saw the entity, here is what happens in the darkroom: I can only see very faint purple puffs that look like scattered clouds. Sometimes they are red or white, and very often I see moving black puffs. When I try to grab these puffs with my hand, I see a whitish-gray mist about 6 centimeters thick surrounding my hands. Then, the entire wall in front of me turns into the same kind of mist, and the puffs disappear. I don't know what this is.

That's surely a scout.

But the thing about dream phantoms is, whichever you focus your attention on, the scout will take it over.

You can learn that by finding your hands inside a dream, to bring in some rationality, and then look around to identify the scout.

If there's more than one being, point your finger at them one at a time and stare at a detail on their physical presence, until they mutate and vanish.

Keep going until there's only one left.

The scout will likely take over that one unless you're missing something else.

You can prove it by trying to dissolve that one, and finding out there's a glowing object inside.

A scout can be an inanimate object too! I had one follow me around as a wheelbarrow.

According to don Juan, all humans are born with a scout following them around.

It would follow you around awake, and did when you were very young.

But our family censors our childhood perception until "stuff that can't possibly be there" vanishes.

To see it awake, you need to move your assemblage point at least to the green zone, and learn to stop your internal dialogue enough that your energy body comes off the walls of the inside of your egg.

The scout can show up on the energy that floats around from your energy body trying to figure out if it's ok to get closer to your tonal energy, stored in the torso.

It's afraid if you have an internal dialogue, because it picks up your nightmarish thoughts.

Thank you for your guidance, Daniel. So this is a special scout that appears in my dreams and can also be found while awake if I silence my inner dialogue. But is this scout suitable for becoming an ally? Before the presence of this dog in my dreams, I dreamed of a large ancient being that was a combination of an owl and an eagle, which clearly asked that, in return for the energy it takes from me, it would give me what I want. And that being shrank itself to the size of an eagle and took the form of an eagle, and placed its head on my solar plexus; I think it was to extract energy. And it was after that that this dog kept showing itself in my dreams. I don't know if they are related or not. But if I want it to become my ally, what exactly should I do? Is it even a suitable ally, or how can I tell which ally is suitable?

>But is this scout suitable for becoming an ally?

We don't have the answer to that.

My own childhood scout taught me a lot, but she was also a bit "evil".

The two Allies Carlos left us are "as close to human as inorganic beings can get", and also have been helping sorcerers from the beginning.

So those are helpful for sure.

You'll just have to find out!

>what exactly should I do?

Learn to stop your internal dialogue, so that you can perceive and interact with it, while awake.

So that you can interact with it daily, rationally and clearly, instead of not being sure what's going on inside an occasionally interesting sleeping dream.

I understand. So I must silence my internal dialogue in order to reach my own understanding of this matter. I will give it my all. Thank you.

No, you have to learn to stop your internal dialogue or you can't learn sorcery at all.

It's the main practice, and without it nothing else is going to work.

I suppose you can get to the green zone on the J curve without learning to stop it, which is what Yogis, Buddhist Masters, Daoists, Kabalists, and Magick people do.

As do people who pray long periods.

But it's just meditative effects.

To get further, for instance into shape shifting territory which is the least you need to do, to say you learned "sorcery", you have to absolutely stop that internal dialogue, and at least 2 minutes at a time.

Here's that J curve map so that you know what 'green zone' means. It's the green station, on this railroad track analogy.

The allies become visible from the green station onwards, as you can see in that diagram.

But they only start to teach you, in person, when you make it to the red zone.

Then they vanish in the orange zone, and you lose your supernatural buddy.

Pity...

"What a pity. I thought allies would stay with us. It's disappointing that they are no longer there in the orange zone. Although I hope they return in silent knowledge. Thank you for the J curve map you sent; it helps me a lot. Right now I have just worked on my recapitulation list and completed it so I can start the recap. And according to this map, I haven't even reached the green zone yet and I'm still in the blue zone.

It's not hard to notice when you've gotten into the green zone, and beyond.

Yogis and Buddhist masters who want money, declare themselves "enlightened" based on some minor stuff they can "feel" when they close their eyes as a side effect of meditation.

It's not much different than a born again christian feeling "the holy spirit" when they close their eyes.

One has to wonder if it's not a deliberate trap, to keep us from escaping the world we chose at birth. We get outside the prison of the blue line on the J curve, and find bliss and pleasure in the green zone. And think that's the ultimate.

Yes, I agree. I used to meditate before, and I would experience exactly the same states you mentioned. I would also see things, mostly with my eyes closed, in that same meditative state, and when I was almost falling asleep. But I realized that meditation is not the path I want. All the perceptions are approximate and vague, and more importantly, it is not magical at all. By reading on Reddit and the things I read here, I realized I was going the wrong way. Now I am looking for real sorcery, and I hope I can experience it.

You can still drink with the hookers on the side of the road.

Otherwise Asia wouldn't be much fun!

Unless you like temples.

You can also straight out ask if there is an ib around. Then they usually come forward and present themselves. Takes less time. Cant remember who taught me that - it was a human - but it works.
