moring or night

[SmileySpirit14]

well for me, its easier to project at night...you probably do have a slightly higher chance to forget, but i wouldnt worry about it...OBEs are kinda hard to forget! do it both ways and see which one is better for you...everyones different!

ya your probly right but i cant obe yet but geting very close. the one thing is that bugs me is that i hear some one breathing right next to my ear(im not scared no more but just anoying). i think some one is trying to stop me from haveing an obe becuase when i try some times i have a part of me that itches soooo much i just have to stop and itch it.
like this after noon when trying to obe i had a itch so bad on my nose its like some one had a feather and just kept moving it acroust my nose and i was hearing the breathing that does not bug me any more though it is just the itching. got any idea if im just close to a obe and there is a spirit or somthing buging me?

That could be caused by astral wildlife.  I get that also, ALOT!  During the day I'm just fine, but as soon as I get relaxed in bed and start meditating I get severe itches or what feels like bug-bites and HAVE to scratch them.  It's very annoying.  The only thing I've found that will help is once you get into the trance state you can ignore the sensations of the physical body, and they'll go away on their own.  As soon as I get the chance I'm going to try Robert Bruce's suggestion of running water in a coil of tubing under the bed and around the room perimeter to keep astral wildlife away.  That way I can determine if this is indeed the cause, or if it's something more mundane.

All my projections have been in the morning, but I try when going to bed at night and set the alarm to try it in the morning.  It just seems easier to get my body asleep and mind awake in the morning.

Wow astral wildlife that could be it. that's kinda weird. ya when i got that itch on my nose it did feel like a bite. Wow. hmm Sylvia brown said something about like Spirit guide that is an animal ugg i cant remembers what it was called but i wonder if it my animal guide lol. i still wont to know what my animal guidis i bet it is a wolf.

maybe you hear breathing in your ear because its ur own breathing: it could be that ur astral bodie's head moved over a little but ur breathing into your physical body. so u cant leave because ur physical body is too aware of this

Smooth,
I have only successfully projected during the daytime, actually. I have had some experiences at night, but generally, I am so tired, it makes it impossible to sustain the trance without plunging directly into sleep.
During the daytime, if I take a nap, or if I get up early and then go back to bed while it is still light in the morning.
As for wildlife, I get more of those during the nighttime, I think they are curious about us dreamers and like to watch us, or play with us while we are projecting...

when is it best to try and obe in te moring or night? i heard that if you do it at night you have a low chance of remembering it. but in the moring you have a high chance of remmemberign it. what do you think?
