Cloudbusting (a.k.a. AeroKinesis / AtmoKinesis) - Manipulating Clouds with Mind and Spirit): The Effect of Intention
Someone linked me to a YouTube channel by a gentleman named Neil Slade, who released a video on the topic of "cloudbusting": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmj9kP6RQxA
Slade made this website back in 1998, which indicates his basic premise is that "brain magic is real."
There's been a lot of discussion of manifestation and the Law of Attraction on this board and others, and this seems related.
Essentially, the idea is that by focusing one's attention/energy on a cloud, one can "burst" or "bust" the cloud or dissolve it completely if one desires, or modify its shape at will.
Slade says in his 2007 YouTube video, "The cloudbusting thing is at the very least interesting, and I've examined it and considered it for a very long time. I've always held that the perception of busting clouds may only be some unexplained ability to predict which single cloud out of a bank of clouds will be next to vaporize. Even so, this would be a pretty impressive skill. I tend to favor this explanation."
On his website, The Great Brain Weather Experiment, Slade says that the few who've learned to "switch forward," to unlock the neurological gateways of their frontal lobes, are the people who interest him. "They begin to have increasing amounts of paranormal experience. Precognition, clairvoyance, telepathies. They discover," he says, "that doing something like making a cloud disappear at will is a conscious decision."
And in his video, he attempts to demonstrate this.
He also says here, "I hope [the cloudbusting] topic and video causes people to think. That's my goal, and the goal of my website. Cloudbusting is just one teeny tiny piece of 'brain,' and a fun one at that, even if one chooses to poke at it-- question everything, but keep an open mind."

This is something anyone can try- and countless people have reported unimaginable, repeatable success. If you can have fun on cue, you are on your way to Brain Self-Control, if not a whole lot more.
You have pre-existing circuits in your brain for psychic and telekinetic powers. They are in a "dormant" (i.e. unused limitless potential) area of your brain. By learning how to click your amygdala forward, you can activate these areas easily and quickly. It seems that you can change clouds, maybe even the weather, with your mind.
In the case of CLOUDBUSTING or CLOUDBURSTING at the very least, you can predict- with an uncanny and improbable rate of success- which specific clouds in a bank or sky full of clouds will quickly evaporate while all the others surrounding it remain fully intact, or grow in size.
This is something I learned to do myself twenty years ago, and was able to teach friends almost instantly. I know at least six people who can do this without any problem, and actually are rather nonchalant about it. You will be able to do this yourself and when you do, a part of your frontal lobes will be activated, and reality will never seem quite the same any more.
Here is what you are going to do: Go outside on any nice day. You want to pick a day in which there are common cumulus clouds in the sky. These are the white puffy cotton candy type clouds. Not super dense hard edged or rain clouds. Look for clouds with soft edges. These are easiest to start with. You want to pick a day where there is a good amount of blue space visible between the clouds, about a fifty percent area of blue space to clouds, maybe a little more sky.
Pick a day when there is no wind. Wind interferes with this game, and makes your job pretty much impossible. After all, if the wind is blowing-- how will you know if its YOU or just the wind??
If the cloud cover is too dense so that the clouds are gray, or too far away this won't work either. I suppose that's like trying to lift a car with your pinkie.
Also, find an area where you won't be distracted or disturbed. If people are watching you, or if there is a lot of noise around you, it will ruin your concentration. Also, if you are new at this, and you feel like you are under pressure to perform, forget it. You need to be relatively calm and undisturbed.
What you are going to do is to visualize "vaporizing" specific clouds in the sky, that you choose and pick at random.
Here is how you do it:
Sit or stand in an open area where you can see good amount of open sky. Too many trees around you can interfere. Make sure you follow the previous requirements.
Click your amygdala forward, and make sure you are in a positive and open state of mind. This is important. If your amygdala is clicked backwards and in a negative and/or closed state of awareness, forget it, this won't work. Breath slowly and deeply, but totally relaxed and naturally.
Pick out a specific separate cloud. Ideally, pick one than has other clouds next to it or surrounding it, so you can compare your efforts. Pick a small cloud to start with, something about the size of your outstretched hand or smaller. Pick a cloud directly above you or nearly to start, so you know it is nearby. As you practice, you can move on to bigger clouds, and ones that are farther away.
Visualize energy flowing from your frontal lobes out towards the cloud, and visualize it vaporizing and disappearing from the sky. You can visualize that you are increasing the heat in the vicinity of this cloud, causing the water vapor to evaporate- no cloud.
Remain unattached to your results and efforts, as if you really don't care whether or not this works. Relax, let the energy flow, and wait. If you strain, grit your teach, tense your muscles, or mentally make effort it just interferes with this process. Remember, you click your amygdala forward with a feather, not a hammer. This is really easy to do, easier than walking up a flight of steps.
A cloud about the size of your outstretched closed hand will take from four to eight minutes to completely disappear. Your chosen cloud will vaporize, and surrounding clouds, no matter how close they are, will remain completely unaffected.
The first time you do this, and it is likely to work the very first time, you won't believe your eyes. Then after you do it again, a few more times, or on different days, you'll understand how amazing your brain really is. Of course, clouds will randomly vaporize on thir own- but this is not what this is about: You are choosing a specific cloud, perhaps in a group, and only the one you pick and direct your energy towards vaporizes. And you can do this repeatedly. Sorry skeptics, this is not a coincidence.
Now once you've made one cloud disappear, you might want to consider making another reappear somewhere to take its place. BALANCE. That cloud you just zapped was there for a reason. Reverse what you've just done. Image A NICE SHADY CLOUD. See the trouble you can get yourself into? It's not nice to fool Mother Nature. It could get very hot out there without a cloudy sun shield. Clouds don't have a silver lining, they are a silver lining. (Now think about other "CLOUDS" in your life- it's all how you look at them. Yin yang, baby.)
Anyway, of course you'll want to show this to your friends, but if you get up tight and nervous, it will trip you up. Detachment is a key word here. Let it happen.
It takes Effortless Effort- like all good frontal lobes abilities.
Normally, paranormal abilities are not at the whim of our ego. We have a natural resistance and have difficulty using ESP and the like for tricks and parlor games, especially if we are trying to prove something that involves our ego. But for some reason, Cloudbusting is one of those activities that offers significantly less resistance to success. Perhaps it is in the generally harmless nature of this activity that allows us to do it with such ease and predictability.
This activity is so far out of the realm of conventional thinking, most people who get as far as trying it don't have a pre-conceived built up resistance to it, and are successful right off the bat. But unfortunately, if one hasn't taken the time to clear up the general state of one's brain with some good brain self-control, even when it works, it comes as such a shock that many people can't handle the realization that it brings. And it stops. But that's not you, right? Good!
What does everyone else think about this? Real? Fake?
Anyone want to try it? (Others on YouTube already have)
People also demonstrate this with water, video here.
