“And he realized that he was completely lost. There was a dark forest around the wall. And John was completely desperate, but suddenly, luckily for him, a light flashed in the distance between the oil. He went in that direction, and went out into a large clearing, in the middle of which a fire was burning, illuminating those who were sitting by the fire …
They were strange people - tall, thin and as if transparent, like tongues of flame that cast their reflection on them. They danced around the fire and sang pebny, quiet and sonorous, captivating and somewhat frightening, but what exactly, John did not have time to understand, because one of them, the tallest and most handsome, whose golden hair was adorned with a crown, suddenly knitted his eyebrows and told John to come closer. Wine and food was brought to him, beautiful virgins and young men again joined hands, the sounds of divine songs were heard, and John thought he was in paradise …
When he woke up in the morning, the clearing was empty. The sun beat in his eyes, the birds sang deafeningly. John got up and walked in the direction where he thought the village was. Less than half an hour later, he left the forest and saw familiar fields. However, the closer he got to the house, the more he was surprised. The street turned out to be much wider than the day before, and people, dressed somehow outlandish, kept glancing at him. He did not meet any acquaintances. John got scared and rushed, not making out the road, and he ended up in the cemetery.
There he saw the graves of his parents, whom he had left alive, healthy and vigorous yesterday. However, the inscription on the stone said that his father and mother lived to a very old age and died alone, abandoned by their only son. “Where have I been? And which year is it? " cried John, discouraged. A passer-by who happened to be nearby was able to answer only the second question. And John learned that he was not at home not one night, but a whole hundred years."
Needless to say, we know a lot of such stories that mention the breaks in time, the transition to the past and the future. All of them have one thing in common: the magical place has clear boundaries, and therefore the hero, falling into another world, crosses a certain line, opens and passes the mysterious Gates.
TALE LIES, YES HINTS IN IT

It is easy, of course, to dismiss ancient legends, which is what people, by and large, do. And if something unusual happens, you may simply not notice it. Much of what we hear and see, our brain blocks, preventing us from thinking about what is happening and remembering it. This is a kind of protection against mental disorders and depression.
But no matter how hard we try to live in a straightforward and pragmatic world, we have to admit that people dissolving in the air still exist, as there are many other worlds located in space parallel to ours and in contact with it, like threads in a tightly twisted rope.
Such phenomena are called spatial transitions - transitions from one reality to another through energy tunnels. You can walk along them, sometimes without even noticing the transition process, but you can be sure - fully feeling its result!
QUICK GUIDE FOR BEGINNERS
So, the path to the tunnel lies through the Gate, that is, a rift or crack in the energy space of a single world. So we find ourselves in a passage connecting the worlds, or parallels, with each other. In the old days, magicians used to walk here. Even now, energy corridors are intended exclusively for the initiated. However, out of curiosity or negligence, an ordinary citizen can stumble and plunge into history.
The line between spaces is thin, and after taking a step, you immediately find yourself in a completely different reality: another sky, air, earth, people … You can, of course, step into the usual time gates, then you will just be wrong about the era. And you can open the door between two parallels. Our "parallel" neighbors live in a measured current time, just like ours.
It is quite difficult to calculate the exact coordinates of the landing point you need. After all, the number of worlds in one parallel, or space-time spiral rope, is enormous. And each world has, in addition to parallels, several mirror reflections of its own, which, in turn, are connected with other reflections of parallel worlds. To understand this whole structure of the universe, you will have to completely change your consciousness.
WELCOME OR ANY OTHER ENTRANCE IS PROHIBITED
By its origin, the Gates are artificially created and natural. The latter appear as a result of natural and energy cataclysms or are located in places where sources of various energies have been hitting for a long time: these are ancient temples and places of Power. People call them bad, bad places.
As for artificially created passages, they usually serve those who opened them, and exist as long as they are used. They were marked with various labels, but the location was not particularly advertised. To use them effectively, magicians evaluated the position of the Sun and Moon, day, time, year, and even their own physical condition.
Sometimes the Gates are found in places where, according to the logic of things, they should not be at all. This is either a half-cut grove, or a wasteland cleared for construction, or a narrow street between houses. They can look like holes in the wall and even be located at a certain height. One careless step - and now you are in the village of the ancient Celts and whether you will come back - God knows.
The fact remains. According to statistics, about four thousand people disappear every year. As a rule, even more people disappear without a trace in leap years or years that lie at the turn of the century. Of course, not all of the missing disappeared in spaces alien to us.
But the bulk of those not found are mushroom pickers, hunters and adventure seekers. So if one day in a forest or in a swamp you come across a standing menhir (a long stone, vertically dug into the ground) or a maze made of stones, think carefully before you step forward. After all, the gate is not only a curious door to another reality, but also a great danger to life.
After passing through the Gate, you can burn to the ground, flatten, or, conversely, stretch in length. You can face the guardians of the Gate - enkhs, one kind of which is able to knock the soil out from under your feet. And you still have to negotiate with them, and what payment will be required from you for the passage is not the last question.
WALKING ZONES
There is also such a phenomenon in nature as wandering zones. The results of their movement are clearly visible in the forests: these are long clearings, on which trees, shrubs and even grass do not subsequently grow. This is a scorched wasteland.
Crossing such a clearing is dangerous, but it is even more dangerous to meet a wandering area on the freeway. One or more cars can suddenly dissolve without leaving even a cloud of exhaust gas behind. This is explained by the fact that the highway was crossed by an energy zone with a passage open at the moment.
WHERE DO THE HOUSES COME FROM
Astral holes are the closest relatives of the space-time Gates. These are peculiar holes in the energy layer between the real, physical world and the astral. And they usually appear in places of accumulation of energies: above altars, in places of Power and even in mirrors. Any old muddy mirror in practice can turn out to be a small gateway to the astral world.
But they are not capable of transporting large objects and especially people. Small entities, small animals and insects, as a rule, pass through them. Therefore, if you have an astral hole in your apartment, get ready to meet a poltergeist, brownie, or even rats or cockroaches, from which there will be no end.
Only this living creature is capable of passing from world to world, apart from man. In this case, the employees of the sanitary and epidemiological stations are powerless, and this will have to be treated like that, that is, with magic.
INSTEAD OF EPILOGUE
Astral holes and spatial Gates open in different parts of our world, regardless of the season. It is most sensible to bypass them. But if you really want to travel, follow these rules.
Never be afraid of what you do not understand: confusion and fear are bad companions in cognition. Try to adapt to your new environment, mimic, honor the charter of the monastery where you inadvertently granted. Do not be surprised at anything and do not make any sudden gestures. Just observe and analyze. Look for the exit where the entrance was.
Enjoy your trip!
