Last night, I experienced a fully concious astral projection.
This is my second in two weeks, both being the only ones I hav experienced for about a year. I have recently been really getting back into the whole thing again, posting on this forum and commiting to the exercises etc. This is how I did it, if anybody is interested.
I woke up at about 11 o clock in a relaxed state. I had been trying to attain trance earlier on, and fell asleep. Now I brought on the vibrations, I say brought on, it wasn't too much work from this point, I just relaxed and felt them come on. I then made a very concious effort to force my conciousness out of my body, pushing up and out. I nearly lost the vibrations because I kept swallowing, I was still half aware! Eventually I began to searate, and once I was out, I used the key that I found two weeks ago, the key that has opened up the world of conscious projection for me,
"I OPENED MY EYES!!"
Yes, I am afraid that it really is that simple for me. Once I am vibrating at pushing out of my body, I have to perform that act of opening my eyes, which feels exactly the same as opening my physical eyes, but then I am already out.
The experience.
once I got out, I went over to my computer and checked the time. I physically pressed a button, so pretty early on I entered an astral construct of the real world, the alice in wonderland effect! Then I "switched on my light" and saw myself in bed, curled up in a different blanket than usual.
next I went out of my window, and flew up into the sky. I had the oportunity to spy on somebody I am interested in, but rejected this. Instead I flew up and began to pray to Jesus! (I am not christian.) I was praying the lords prayer very fervently. I asked for his help in my endeavors, and I what looked like a little fireworks display!
Then I called out to see if I had a guide, asked if they could show themselves, but nobody turned up. Then i wondered whether I should quite while I was ahead, but then carried on. It was then that it descended into a nightmare.
Hope this is interesting, it certainly was for me.
Lysear,
Your experience are similar to mine in which I always end up swallowing when the vibrations come, which I think keeps me from OBing. Do you think this is a natural or is because of fear?
