Body Revealed.
[info]panimer
 Yesterday around noon I had a headache. I decided to take a nap, hoping that it will alleviate my headache. I really had trouble falling asleep, my body didn't want to fall asleep. I soon started to feel the usual symptoms of an oobe and thought alright minus well take advantage of this and try to induce one on myself. So I started to feel the warm vibrations and everything along with it.

I then think I entered the usual sleep paralysis stage. I usually hear very creepy noises in this stage but this time I swore a few radio stations were playing through my head. I heard music, whispers, and talking.

I'm gonna keep this one shorter than I'd like to do it. Just going to go briefly over what happened and not too much in great detail.

I then felt a feeling of disassociation and I thought, "okay I think I'm ready."  I opened my eyes, everything looked normal, sunshine beaming into my room from my windows. I was very excited with the thought of me traveling around the city of Chicago in broad daylight, I only ever had oobe's at night. But then I realized I didn't have full control of my "spirit body." My right spirit arm freely moved out of my physical arm but I really had trouble disconnecting from the rest of my body. It felt like I was another body floating within my physical body and the only thing keeping me there was something like a magnetic force. I've talked about this before so it wasn't new to me.

I then realized I was looking through my physical eyes and moved my right spirit arm in front of my face. At first there was nothing there but I knew my arm should be there due to pure spacial awareness and coordination. I then looked closer and to my surprise I was able to see my spirit arm, it was just barely visible. It was like invisible blending into the background but there was a distortion along the border of my arm, revealing my arm if you look closely. Similar to camouflage technology in many sci-fi material; the predator movies, alien vs. predator, halo, and many others. The first thing that came to mind was the predator creatures in the Predator movie with Arnold Schwarzenneger. I continued to look at my arm in awe; slowly waving it back and forth in front of my eyes, moving through my mattress into my sheets and out. 

I then decided to grab my left spirit arm and pull my body parts out of my physical body. So my right arm entered my left arm and I gripped my astral left arm and pulled it out, it worked! I originally planned to also pull my legs out but directly after my left arm came out my legs seemed to just disconnect easily. I then attempted to fly out into my room. I repeatedly tried this, only always struggling to move forward, as if my body was pulling me back in. The farthest I got was at the opposite side of my room from where my bed was.

Another very weird incident within this incident that I'd like to add is while I was repeatedly attempting to fly out, in the midst of that. I just lied there and heard something behind me on the other side of my bed and even thought I seen something. I naturally quickly rolled my body into that side of my bed to see. The odd part is that I know my physical body moved and my physical body rolled over just like I had attempted. But I found myself now looking through the back of my head, as if my physical body moved but my astral body stayed in the same position as my physical was before. I was looking through the back of my body. I figured that my mind was confused, in between both of my bodies, confused as to which to control. I also felt this feeling at other points when trying to fly out, being able to move my astral upper body but only being able to move my physical lower body. Haha You can only imagine how odd that was.

After awhile I just snapped out of that state and was completely back in the physical realm of things and then proceeded to take my original nap.

Thanks for reading.

Back in it.

Hi all,

Today I had an OBE after what was a longer than average drought of not having any, but I actually tried to have one today, it worked.

Anyways, this one happened quite quickly and easily around 6 am shortly after waking up. I also want to say that I realized the technique I use now is one that utilizes sleep paralysis, it works very well for me, I probably have like a 90% success rate when I do it this way. But I accidentally stumbled upon this technique and am now just realizing what I am actually doing. My first few obe's and ap's were of a different technique. This can also explain why I hear very odd haunting noises that would disturb most people before the onset of an obe or ap, noises that are oh so common amongst people who regularly have problems with sleep paralysis. 

So I lied there, originally with the intention of going back to bed but then I noticed that my body feels like its in the optimal conditions to have an obe so I went through my usual mental routine and just gradually fell into a vibrational bliss. At this point I already moved past the sleep paralysis stage and heard the usual odd noises that I have come so used to. Then I felt the shift in body awareness, I now felt like I was in this body that seemed energy like, what is known as your astral body. I felt like I was floating around inside my body and can easily disconnect, so I did.

I didn't get too far though because I then decided to open my eyes and there was darkness, pitch black, all around me. Then I looked up and seen something that startled me a bit. This would be my first encounter with another entity/creature while out of body. Shortly above me there was a crowd of bats flying, maybe like 15. They weren't ordinary bats, these bats were one eyed bats. Very bright eyes just staring at me, flying above me.   If you're interested in seeing what they looked like just click on these links that I found through google images and you will have a good idea of what they look like. Just imagine an all black body with an abnormally big bright eye in the middle, a one eyed bat.

I wasn't scared at all, I was more kind of annoyed of these bats and surprised they were there. They sounded like bats also, making a squeeky kind of noise bats make when their flying around in their big flocks.

I then attempted to project my warm love energy towards them, hoping they would maybe just fly away, so I dug deep inside myself and brought it out and projected it outwards to them. It was pure love. I then looked up and they were still there. At this point I attempted to just swoosh them away with my arm, much as you would a group of gnats or flies flying around your face. I waved my arm at them with an attempt to get them to go away. They didn't go away. At this point I just gave up, these things didn't really bother me anymore and I knew that their harmless and have no intention of doing anything really, they were just there. I decided to just snap back to my body.

I then just wanted to go back to sleep but I found difficulty in going back to sleep, my body wanted to project again, it was hard to avoid it so I let it happen again in hopes that maybe I won't find myself in complete darkness with those one eyed bats hovering above me. To much dismay, I found myself in the same situation, haha. I then snapped back to my body and decided to really go back to sleep. And I was able to avoid shifting into my astral self. 

Till next time guys, thanks for reading! Just message me for questions or anything.

 Last night I attempted an obe. I felt like I was in the right vibe and I was having very mellow vibrations prior to me attempting, I figured it was a perfect opportunity.

Wellllll, I found myself lying there trying to get into the right mental state as I wasn't very tired. Eventually I managed to fall into that state right before an obe is about to commence.  I felt the sinking feeling that I felt in my last one, along with the other regular symptoms. I didn't hear the whispers or swooshes like I usually do, instead I heard a very low rattle. It lasted for about 3 seconds. Shortly after I found myself as my astral self and attempted to disconnect from my body. I then felt myself float upwards a short way above my bed. My eye's remained close as I wasn't sure if I should open them just yet.

Then my experience became odd. My body seemed as if it started to uncontrollably spin counter clock wise as I layed there floated on my back. Faster... faster... and faster... until I was spinning on my back counter clockwise at a constant rate. I was wondering if I was just falling deeper into a trance like state or if I was actually out of my body spinning on my back above my bed. I was puzzled so moments afterwards I decided I would test it out by trying to stick my right foot out, it was also at this point where I noticed my movements were very smooth and groggy/slow. I thought, if I could just stretch my foot out I could determine if I was actually out of my body spinning. I thought, if I hit the wall that my bed lays flat against with any part of my foot and If i feel that happen, then I know i'm actually out of my body spinning. So I did it, and I indeed felt the wall hit my right big toe as it spun by. IMMEDIATELY I then opened my eyes but there was nothing but blackness. I thought that maybe my sheets are over my head blocking my vision. So out of confusion and I don't know, instinct? I then immediately tried to whip my covers off of my face. It didn't work and it's odd because I felt as if I physically did touch my sheets and moved them around real quick but then again I know I didn't. Because directly after I decided to return to my physical self and I found myself laying there as I left myself, with the sheets still over my head. 

What puzzles me about this and makes the whole thing odd is that I'm positive I felt my toe hit my wall, I even felt the texture of the ridges on my wall as I my toe moved over it, and if that was the case, I must've been spinning out of body. The closest wall is directly against my bed, so that must be the case.  Is it even possible to be able to have the sensation as if you're touching something when you're out of body?  And what was up with  my vision? All of my past experiences I had full vision immediately and easily.

Hm.... until next time, thanks for reading!

Floating Frustration(4th and 5th experiences)
[info]panimer
 Hi all!

A few days ago I had my 4th obe/astral projection experience as I was about to go to bed I had the normal symptoms that signify an obe/astral projection is about to take place. Vibrations were of mild strength. But this time I felt my body shifting into a different existence. I guess I was starting to become detached from my physical body. As this change was about to happen, I stopped it. Recently I've been taking in ALOT of information from people's accounts of THEIR experiences with astral projection and coming across alot of creepy stuff. Experiences where people would run into very frightening creatures/otherworldly beings.   One experience I read about explained how he had detached from his body only to see two dark 4-5 foot tall creatures with black hooded clothing standing at the foot of his bed, staring at his physical body. The dude said hey to these creatures to get their attention and ask them what they were doing, the two creatures turned and looked at him, then turned back to continue staring at the guys physical body.  I read other accounts where people feel as if they were in grave danger while astral projecting, feeling as if an entity is trying to take their life.

I then read some people's opinions on dark experiences such as those which gave me some confidence. Basically what I got from it is that nothing can hurt you in the "astral plane" that you shouldn't show fear at all or even bring the emotion of fear up.   Replace fear with love, universal love. When you're astral projecting you should be full an overwhelming sense of love and joy. That these creatures/entities aren't necessarily evil, they just are. Embrace their existence and show them compassion, even if their of the most frightening of things. That these beings greatest weakness is love. I read about one guy who's been doing this for years and that when he would run into frightening entities he would just love them and they would "go away" and if they didn't he would go up to them and give a warm hug. Hippy'ish, I know.. but hey it gave me confidence to continue with my astral projecting, it was the concept itself. I try to fear nothing now. 

A few days later, today, I experienced another full on astral projection, my 5th experience. This one was done at will. I was on my laptop making and editing music when I started to feel drowsy. I told myself, okay, I'm going to take advantage of this. I set my laptop aside and lied down on my bed. I tried to recreate the same mental state as I had with my 4th experience. I did my routine in setting in a deep meditative state, next thing I knew I was getting the same symptoms from my 4th experience. My body started to feel as if it was entering a different state of being. Like a shift in awareness.

Then I felt like I was magnetized to my body, unable to move or anything. I think at this point I was experiencing what is known as sleep paralysis.THEN, as I had previously read so much about but this was my first time experiencing it, I started to hear very creepy noises that would disturb most people. Like whispering coming from different people or beings directly into my ear, static noise at some points, and fast/sharp and slow/low swooshes. Meanwhile, my ears felt like they entered a different altitude as if there was pressure or a lack of pressure in my ear. Like they wanted to pop but they never did. The swooshes were basically different variations of this one I found on youtube, almost exactly the same, www.youtube.com/watch just click the link to listen if you want.   The creepy sounds lasted for about ten seconds, although I read about some lasting for a lot longer.

Right after the sounds were gone, I instantly felt weightlessness. I started to detach my right leg. Once detached it just floated. My leg didn't feel like a physical leg at all, it was as if my leg was one of energy or something(my astral leg). Once my leg was detached, everything else easily detached. I had a soothing mellow vibration going through my body. At first I didn't float up, I instead floated down. At one point I was under my bed struggling to float up. This was the first time I experienced floating like this, I guess this was my first FULL ON astral projection, and I was struggling in controlling my body. It was as if I was learning how to ride a bike for the first time, I was searching for the right balance trying to go in the direction i wanted to. Eventually I managed to float upright midair in my room to the right of my bed. Then all those thoughts about those dark experiences people would have flooded my mind. I almost lost concentration I think because I was starting to hear my tv that was left on but then I reminded myself of what brought me my confidence back in the first place and all my fears went away. I then thought "yes! this is amazing, alright, gonna go through the ceiling and fly in the sky." I was having trouble in controlling all of my excitement, I didn't want to snap back to my body. So I looked up at the ceiling and thought okay fly, fly, fly. I kept repeating that to myself. It was working I guess because I started to gain somewhat of a control over this and started to float up and down about three times, every time reaching a higher peak and getting closer into "taking off." At one point I was able to go through the ceiling a bit. Then I started to hear that tv again and felt my self starting to reconnect to my body. In the back of my head I was paying too much attention to tv being on and started to lose focus. I was thinking, "what?! I'm hearing the tv again? that's crazy, just like last time, there must always be a link to you and your body even when it seems your totally disconnected." I was putting too much interest in it. Loss of focus in combination with excitement caused me to instantly snap back to my body. I was not disappointed though as it was still awesome.


Introduction/Recap
[info]panimer
 Hi everyone!  

This is my first journal entry and I feel like I should have started one of these awhile ago. Therefore, this entry will be a recap/summary of my past experiences with what is known as an obe(out of body experiences) or astral projection. There are probably other terms that I'm unaware of but those are the two terms I come across most frequently. I'm not necessarily hooked on the idea that these terms explain what is really happening but whether it is your mind recreating whole worlds to the best detail or if you are in actuality traveling withing an "astral" plane of existence, it's awesome.


Prior to what has been happening to me as of lately I was unaware of what astral projecting was. I didn't have a clue of what it was even like. I barely believed in a soul or anything in that matter.

A little over a year ago home alone late at night, I walked into my living room to watch some tv. I was bored flipping through channels, I barely even watch tv!  I decided to just lay there on my back on my couch with the tv still on. I closed my eyes and started to think. I started to think about the world, the universe, and how insignificant we on Earth really are. How insignificant our wars, our fighting, and political problems are. I started to get really deep into thought at this point. Some would say I was some sort of unintentional meditation. A warm, mellow vibration was pulsing through my body, it felt good. It seemed like I was continuing to dig deeper in my mind. At this point I entered a trance like state, unintentionally. Then, out of nowhere, that warm mellow vibration quickly turned into a heavy electrifying vibration. I remember it being so strong I felt as if I was bracing myself as if I was riding some sort of roller coaster or rocket ship. It was intense, but I loved it. In the back of my mind, I was fully aware of what was going on. I was not asleep, I was not dreaming, I was not on drugs, I don't know what the fuck is going on. I remember yelling as I was bracing myself for this ride, "WHAAAAAAAAAAAT THEEEEEEEEEEEEEE FUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!"   Then suddenly, as if the accelerating part of the ride to get up to speed ceased, the vibrations turned into a very pleasant resonance pulsing through my entire body. I was realized I was now in a duality of the consciousness, I was aware that I was lying on my couch and I was also aware that I was not lying on that couch. Ladies and gentlemen, at this point, it seems like I was orbiting planet Earth. That huge vibrational rush must have been me "launching" extremely fast off the surface of the Earth. I even decided to swoop down and fly across the United States from Chicago to Orlando, Florida.   I remember seeing the city lights of houses, buildings, and skyscrapers illuminate like the night sky in the countryside. Thousands of tiny little glowing dots on a black canvas. After for what seemed like 30 minutes I started to hear my tv, which was on as I left it. My physical body must have been hearing this and I was able to hear it as I traveled and orbited the planet. I started to lose concentration I guess as the sound of my tv roared through my ears and in an instant I was back in my body, aware that I had "returned."  I opened my eyes and asked myself what had happened.  Whatever had happened, it was the most intense thing I have ever felt!

Days later, I wanted answers. I even told my Mom and some aunts about it, they responded, "what kinda crack you've been on?!"  I then came to the conclusion that it is not a good idea to just tell anyone about this. I then went to google and searched the symptoms I had experienced, "heavy vibrational feeling throughout body." Something along those lines...     To my surprise I found videos on youtube, blogs, websites, and books all describing in detail the same symptoms I had described. I realized other people all around the world have experienced what I have and there are answers! This was when I discovered that what I had that winter night was an unintentional spontaneous out of body experience/astral projection.  I wanted for this to happen to me again, I loved it, it was an adventure, it was a ride!  I tried to recreate what was going on in my mind that night over and over again for a few months on end, only ever being able to get to the point to where I would get the warm mellow vibrations, BUT NEVER ANY FURTHER!  

Soon I gave up, forgot about it ever happening to me, until a year later(a little over 2 months ago) around the same day!      I was in my bed one day ready to go to take a nap in the afternoon and suddenly I find myself getting those heavy vibrations, although not as intense as my first experience. I embraced it and let it take over. Soon I find myself standing in a hazed down version of my room with an odd atmospheric tone to everything. I walk up my stairs and into the living room where I see my family putting up a christmas tree. For some reason I'm in a really awesome goofy mood, although I was very excited that this happened to me again. I teased my grandfather who was sitting down on a chair. I teased them saying, "haaaaa you can't seem me, i'm invisible!, haaaaaa." At the same time I sort of hopped and danced around the Christmas tree, then my family gets very serious and panicky kind of. My Christmas tree had fallen. I instantly snapped back after that and went upstairs an hour later. I asked my Mom if the tree had fallen at all, she said yea, it was off balance.


My 3rd experience was a few days after my second. This experience was the weakest. I received the vibrations and then suddenly I find myself in my upstairs hallway. Everything looked different though. There was an odd purplish tint in the air. This hallway seemed like a dark version of it. I stood at the beginning of it, all doors were closed going down to the end. Something didn't feel right. It felt very creepy and dark. The walls felt like they wanted to cave in or something. I decided I wanted to stop and snapped back to my body.


That's the end of my obe/astral recap. Keep in mind that no experience was as powerful and as exciting as my very first one. Since then I've had two more experiences that have happened to me recently that I will write about in my next entry.

Thanks for reading!!
