In dreams, when you are bodiless and enter into someone else's body (freely, as they inhabit it) - what is that called?
Is there an actual term for it?
I am speaking of anything regarding the action of "stepping into" someone else's body and borrowing them, so to speak - seeing things through their eyes.
*Psych./Metaphysical standpoint

PS - This would not be called possesion, as that is something entirely different.

Telepathic-a dream in which one receives thoughts, images, emotions and feelings from another person. It might involve taking the observer point of view.
Empathic-a dream in which one "walks in the other person's moccasins." It's a type of telepathic dream, only the dreamer lives the experience inside out: from the other person's point of view. Includes the ability to sense another's emotions as if they were your own.
Inhabiting-the dreamer's awareness is experienced as being located inside someone else's body or someone else's dream-surround while retaining sense of self as a separate individual.

It sounds like possession to me. It could be what is called channeling.
