Frustrating Obe.

[Shivers]

As I had some spare time on my hands for an uninterrupted nap today, I decided to try and visit Astral Pulse island just to see if anyone still visits there.
My Obe started off with the usual mental waking up with a rolling sensation and ringing in my ears.
It wasn't difficult to project outwards, but I had the usual blackness that accompanies many of my Obe's.  Tried to move away from this with a destination in mind(API), but when I got there I could only make a vague outline of the pyramid and trees.  Tried asking for clarity with no effect.
What could I be doing wrong?

do you do any form of energy work?


:NoY:

Have never heard of energy work(never heard of it) until a few weeks ago when I joined up Astral Pulse, but have been doing a limited amount of energy work since.  Using the method of mentally passing a ball between my hands.
Maybe I'm not using the right method?
Do you think perhaps this is why my Obe's are no good, Noy?

I think doing energywork would improve your projections, but thats just my view.
you could try this type of energywork http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_out_of_body_experiences/help_for_beginners-t32612.0.html and see how you get on

Thank you very much Noy  I was looking around for energy work exercises without much success-will give your link a try.

I just read through your thread then and just for a minute tried out your technique of white light while breathing in, purple fire while breathing out.  I just had some major tingling in my feet trying this, what effects do people normally have?
