Thank you everyone for your advice and direction. From what I understand now, the fear is coming from me. If this is the case then fear is indeed only an obstacle.

Thanks everyone for your support and advise.

I am new to this forum and joined because it seems that I am now able to astral project. I wanted to jot down (very briefly) a couple of things in the hope of receiving feedback. A more comprehensive run down of events will, I am sure, follow in due course.

I have left my body a few times now, three of which I would classify as astral projection. I haven't gone far but after the most recent 'departure' I believe I know now how to do it. The first two times were spontaneous, the third intentional. All three followed the same steps:

1. lucid dreamlike state, though conscious - always in bed, lying on back
2. ringing in the ears, high pitched and extremely loud. fear, a racing heartbeat
3. departure from body, hovering above for about a minute or so. in control.

It is the last two occasions that concern me. I felt a bad presence in the room and was in a state of fear. The second occasion was actually initiated in a split second once I thought I saw 'something' in the room. Fear, a racing heartbeat, ringing and rising all happened immediately. On the third occasion I felt I should try a little harder to go further intentionally, but once rising, I felt a resistance. Almost as if I was being pushed back down. Could this have been my auric field? This pressure freaked me out a little so I went back into my body. So I didn't get very far upwards, probably 2 or 3 feet. I have, therefore, intentionally stopped all astral travels because of fear.

So I have learnt what it is to leave the body and feel confident I can do it now when I want, but am reluctant to go further at this time. How ironic - after wanting to do this for years, fear is now stopping me from practicing what I have learnt to do. I am most interested to learn from others who experience ringing in the ears, fear because of a presence and any resistance encountered.
