Opinions wanted please.

Hi all,
My name is matt, i've just started trying to AP and had a very powerful experience on which I'm trying to clarify what happened.
I lay in bed relaxing and quietening my mind for some time... A think it turned out to be a couple of hours. I had my eyes closed and was trying to keep my attention on the ' third eye ' area. I started to feel vibrations , of which became very strong. I have read about these on this forum so it wasn't a major surprise. The thing is, I think my physical body actually started to shake as well. But really shake fast! A bit like a fit ( I've never had a fit, so I don't know what that feels like but, what I would imagine it to be like ). I felt as if I had kind of separated from my physical body, yet I was unable to move my consciousness away from my head. It was a very strong and moving experience, strangely it somehow felt a bit familiar!
So this leads me to the question of what happened?
I don't think I made a full projection as I wasn't able to move around but something happened!
Also I haven't read anywhere that your physical body shakes during separation, I'm almost positive that mine did!
Any help in assisting me to clarify my experience would be greatly and thankfully received.
Thanks, matt.

Hey there. It sounds like you were in a trance or transitional state of consciousness that would've led to a projection. One time when I got pretty far in an attempt to consciously exit I experienced violent shaking throughout my body as well. Vibrations are very common before an exit, but "violent shaking" wasn't the sensation I associated with them. My vibes before spontaneous exits are internal, gentle, and this may be hard to understand but they feel like a harp sounds. Either way, you were pretty close to going out of body so keep up whatever you're doing.

Oh, and you probably shouldn't post the same thread in more than one section of the board. People will get to it if you post it once.

I'll definitely agree with Astral316!

Definite Trance state.

Don't worry about the physical body shaking though, it's not physical at all.  If you were to video record yourself practicing and experiencing those... you'll play back the video to see nothing abnormal happening. 

Congrats!  Keep up the work and you'll be having your share of non-physical experiences.

Quite alright.
I figured as much and fixed the situation for you.

I'm pretty much 100% sure, your physical body did not shake.
Its your ethereal body sending signals down your physical nerves when it separates. Seems very real. But as was said above, if you "wake" yourself up you will see that its not your body. (Or records your projection with a camera as he said or ask someone to watch what happens to your body, they will report nothing unusual)

With time the violence goes away for most.
