OBE trend

[jkjk8991]

So, I'm not sure what it is, if it's just my mind being tired or what, but when I project or have a false awakening or phase from a lucid dream, I've been tending to have a horrible perception and control. As if it's extremely unstable. A good example was last night, I put on the 4hz brown noise and began doing a mantra just to test it out, I've never really experimented with them before. So some time passed, I'm not sure how much, but I remember watching the patterns or colors swirl, and then I was in a sort of "dream scene" except i was detached from it. I could still feel the sensations of my body even though I was watching this scene unfold. (the scene was some starcraft game I used to play, as if i was playing it then)

So, the scene goes on not long, maybe 20 seconds? Then it fades to black. And I feel this extremely intense shaking and the super loud noise. Now I'm used to these things to an extent and I just said, "this is good, relax through it, this is good." Now the shaking became ridiculous, I remember I felt(or thought I felt) my teeth smacking against each other and my arm absolutely flailing around. But then I tired to separate by thinking of floating away, and I did float up a bit, then my body began falling in this endless loop. it was as if I was being spun around my feet vertically, going head over heels every time, except that I was always moving down through the same scene. I started to get control of this, and moving helped me to stop falling, I was just worried that I wasnt fully separated. So I moved a bit and everything was super dark and distorted, sort of scary looking. I told myself, "I have nothing to fear here, no harm can come to me." And I was confident in this, though I was getting bad vibes from the environment, it looked sort of like my basement in my house with the lights off, which could be normal, because the lights would be off haha, I never thought that I could of just gone to the RTZ in my basement. Anyways, my vision was only partial and I opened my right eye since it seemed to be shut, but unfortunately I opened my physical eye and woke up with my body in sleep paralysis, an odd feeling.

A few weeks ago I had a similar experience except it came from phasing, I also ended up in my basement, extremely dark and spinning in circles around the room while the tv was on. I remember a horrible feeling that time, as if something wanted me to leave or get out. I think I remember voices, and I assumed them to be saying something like, "get out." Needless to say I forced my eyelids open that time. I've gained more control over my fear since then though, so I was sad to see last night's work out so poorly.

Anyways, the past handful of OBE's I've had since I moved back into school are mostly distinguished with being very very difficult to move around, to speak, and to see. I went into one from meditation a couple days ago and I only had partial vision. I rubbed my hands together and felt their sensation but it was difficult to do. I tried to command "clarity now" but my voice was but a squeak, I then tried again, this time with all my might to shout it, and ended up waking myself.

So what's going on? Do I just not have my "Astral Legs" yet, sort of like sea legs, or am I just a little run down from school? The possibility of projecting to the RTZ of my basement is likely since that normally is where I spend my time when I'm home, and both times were during the night. Though I don't know what would explain the bad feeling I get from there. I guess I must face it, that's my next plan of course right now if it happens again, but any suggestions on not waking myself up, or any thoughts on these occurrences? 
I'm happy something is happening over nothing though, I'd rather have a ton of bad OBE's than none at all, practice is a success in my book.

My guess is that when you do separate you are not going far from your physical body, and control of your conscious functions are not completely transferred, so that your physical awareness is messing with your etheric/astral control/awareness.
It's possible that when you do get symptoms you need to aggressively do some sort of exit technique that isn't passive (unless the symptoms include floatiness) and when out, regardless of how well you "see", get yourself away from your body so that you can 'center' yourself and get some control.
The ways to get away will vary depending on what you are feeling when finally out.

Hmmm, impaired vision and difficulty with navigation.... 
 

Yes many newbies report these conditions. It is very common.

I think the odd sensation with hand rubbing then shouting and getting only a squeek and subsequently waking up indicates that you had not made a clean or complete separation. It is good to have a plan of action. This can help with progress over time.

It could be a combination of both being and little run down and needing to get your sea legs. But that is not to say that rest is the cure. Choosing a right plan of action and executing well can leave you physically exhausted but Astrally primed for strong OBE travels.

I believe the "dark" and foreboding sense upon exit can be strongly alleviated with a bit of cleansing of one's own psychic space. Listen to positive and uplifting music. Say a short prayer every morning and evening (maybe the serenity prayer if you don't know anything else). Generate a positive connection with the Creator and get a little Agape energy flowing. I expect awesome Inner Experiences await those who can manage these simple efforts.
