So I had enough with this drought. Maybe it was a gut-feeling that this "1mm rain" - if you can even call that - will fall. So I just lay there in bed on Sunday (from ~09:30) in my darkened room and for a time imagined a hefty rain with dark skies and thundering. By 10:30 we had a nice rain with thundering and dark clouds and the street had long puddles, so I may risk to call it more than 1mm rain.. Well, it was quick, because all clouds cleared up pretty fast. The sun shone freely again, so we had our precious heatwave back. Though, nicely cool winds blew for a couple hours after that in the morning.
. . .
Then I thought, this was just a coincidence right?
"A good donkey always feels the rain." - we have this saying in Hungary. So why not? Let's try again!
G. mentioned 'alarm clocks', which function as refreshers[for the mind] for a while, then their newness wears out and they cease to work as [mental] alarm clocks again.. Remember his mental exercises?
Same with holding difficult mental-images as
elaborate weather-processes in your mind. To play out.. successively.. in proper order.. just like in Nature. For - in 4thD[outskirts] - you cannot
will into existence a weather, if you don't know how it usually emerges in nature, eh? Follow the natural process. I remembered the previous discussion about powerful 4thD minds, what they are capable of.. Well, we are starting to sail into the outskirts of some 4thD "territory", so why not try our wings?
I liked that 'Sott Weather Summary'-video part (IIRC) about those undulating fantastic sea-wave clouds in the sky, so I imagined that. I figured, its compatible with / good for an
Overcast-Sky Seed Mental Image™. So I held that in my mind: dark skies pregnant with clouds. Much thundering. Copious amounts of rain. (Water levels rising to 10 feet, 30 feet, 100 feet, okay, I stopped at that. :D)
I did this at least three times inside or going out into the sunny heatwave and - assertively imagining heavy rainfall drenching my body - around 12:40pm. Just holding the image of the desired weather-target, in my mind and playing it as a movie, over and over again, before my minds eye. Now, as with all mental concentration exercises, this too is hard to do in the strong sunshine outside, since sunlight gets behind my closed eyelids. Its really hard to imagine a dark sky, when the sun shines through your closed eyelids and makes your vision bright red. :)
Just a reminder: all the forecast 1mm rain - for Sunday - (pic in prev. post) already fell in the morning. Now is afternoon and like a steel spring: the weather quickly sprung back to its original shape => into heatwave-mode!
All right.. so lets repeat the experiment:
Come 16:00 in the afternoon and the sky was already getting overcast with audible, but "mild" thundering. Nicely overcast, almost dark-grayish clouds everywhere. Visible raindrops on concrete begin the concert..
By 17:00 it was all over: another quick summer-rain fell, easily blowing away our professional weather-peeps' forecast for the day. By now we can log at least 2mm - 3mm rain for the day. There is a large puddle on [street] corner and the soil is nicely suffused with water. Now the western sky has cleared up. East is still overcast. Heatwave is back. Though some weak white clouds help to mask the sun. Time: 17:39.
The opposite is true: 'un-making a storm'
On 21 April and 6 May, - logged in my calendar, [3rd experiment repeat pending..] I managed to completely prevent/clear up entire rain fronts: in both cases it already started to rain, cold wind blew [which felt really bad with wet clothes on], both fronts' end-tail already touched down and was raining in the distance. But I just arrived and wanted to exercise outside for another 120 minutes, so in 20 minutes both [natural and quite persistent!] rainstorms were made to completely disappear. As if never existed. Nature tried to re-correct and both storms - rather storm-pre-conditions were re-initiated couple hours later, but with partial results [by Nature] and only the next day.
On the first occasion a possibly government helicopter appeared and made an observation flight. On second occasion a
heavy military helicopter appeared and flew through the area above me. Did they detect anything on their radar? :-o 3rd repeat of this experiment pending, since now is summer and those cold/cool rainstorms would be a blessing!
