[MD] mystical experiences

[MarshaV]

Greetings,

I don't talk about these experiences often, but I'm feeling 
particularly brave.  I call them strange experiences of the third 
kind.  And I've had a bunch, all different.  Nothing 
earth-shattering, just very strange.  I'm going to tell you about one 
so you might consider your won reaction to what I'm describing.

I had had absolutely no drugs.  In 1999, I was at a full-moon drum 
circle during a three-day spring rites festival.  I knew only about 8 
people at this event.  There were about 150 people at the drum 
circle. I had noticed this strange woman prior to the 
experience.  She was dark like a gypsy and dressed weirdly.  She 
seemed different than anybody else, like a brujo.

Well anyway, prior to the experience I was feeling totally normal 
(not zoning out).  She was kind of across from me when I saw her.  As 
I was glancing at her, she looked at me and her forehead opened up a 
third eye.  I absolutely saw it clearly.  For less then a minute I 
was totally fixed on that third eye.  It then disappeared.  And I 
returned to feeling normal, but flabbergasted.  I looked to see if 
anybody else had seen this, but didn't see anyone who seemed aware of it.

I've never told anyone about this experience.  I am writing about it 
now, so that you might experience your own reaction to hearing of 
it.  I bet you're thinking "She nuts!"
