This morning I woke up, but didn't exactly move my body, so I was still really relaxed. I thought I'd try APing, and the vibrations came. I floated out... and looked back at my body... it wasn't there.  I was kinda shocked, since I could put my hand through the walls. "am I dead?" I thought. Then this weird yellow dog-like creature appeared on my bed and said "Your physical body is dead." I felt astral tears on my cheeks. Then I woke up.

I was still super relaxed and the vibrations came again. I felt myself sinking under my bed. I floated out, and looked at my body again. I was there, and my eyes opened.  Then... I realized I was in my bed, watching myself looking at me, and at the same time... I was standing there watching myself in my bed. This confused the hell out of me.  Then I started having a conversation with myself.
Me standing: I'm gonna go to API now!
Me lying: Okay...
Me standing: This is weird.
Me lying: I know...
Me standing: Hmm what should I wear?
My lying: Uhh... skirt, shoes, and a shirt?
Me standing: Okay.. well... byee!

Then I my awareness was back in my astral body and I decided to try something new. I imaged that outside my window was API... and as I float through the blinds, I would see it!

It worked!..... kinda.... I saw an island with these huge colorful flowers on it. No people or nothing. just... huge flowers. I realized I was walking on water. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON NOW?!?!!??!" I said to myself.  I looked around and saw there were other islands too. They were all weird looking.... some had huge flowers.... some had nothing but brown sand. I saw a lady near by and asked her... "Umm hi! Do you happen to know where an island with a pyramid in the middle, and palm trees is? Some people may have referred it as astral pulse island."  The lady nodded and said "this way..."

We were both walking on water as she led me past some strange looking islands. On the way I was telling her how I have a body on earth and that I'm astral projecting. She didn't respond, and just kept walking.  Before I knew it... I SAW API!. It had the palm trees.... and a pyramid in the middle... and.........a christmas tree??? I got really excited and said "Thank you!!!!" But, she was gone.

I ran to the island... and I saw there were chairs lined up in a row on the beach. There was an announcement being made over a microphone.. but didn't may much attention to it. I walked passed the chairs with people in them. All seemed to be in there 40's. They looked at me kinda weird, maybe because I'm 15? Anyway, I sat next to a man with a beige looking suit and made sure I was wearing clothes. (Lol, I had a bad dream where I wasn't wearing clothes) I sat in this chair... and then I woke up.

Was this it? Or was I someplace else? Why was there a christmas tree and chairs, and announcement?! Some people were wearing suits... and the man I sat next to was kinda balding. Maybe someone from the forum was there and saw me? I had shoulder-length wavy brown hair, red lipstick on, a jean skirt, and black boots on. OH and I had a brown purse I think. I kinda looked like I stepped out of the eighties. lol. (I looked in a mirror to see myself.)  The christmas tree was large, maybe 17 feet tall? And it was covered in decorations.

I'm not sure if it's all my imagination, but I was DEFINITELY not expecting what I saw. (meaning the chairs, and the christmas tree.)  So maybe I was actually there? Hmm... it's hard to say.

But DO tell me your opinions! ^_^

Would it be possible if I printed out a pic of API... stuck it to my wall, and when I come out of my body, I can stair at it and it would open up a "portal" to it? I've read that it can be possible to do this.

Has anyone tried something like this before? Did it work?

I was on vacation to Florida for the past 3 days. At night, I try to AP (as I do every night now.)

Well, the usual routine....vibrations, floating out, etc. O.o I thought I'd try phasing to API. (I haven't lucidly phased before) I thought of the Island... but I think I forgot the pyramid, because I ended up on some really weird SUPER tiny island that's about the size of an office. It had about one or two palm trees, and had 2 ''people'' on it...an average 40 year old looking man with facial hair, and a chubby one, same age, shorter, mean looking. I asked "where am I?" and the chubbier guy didn't answer my question. Instead, he asked "where are you from?" I didn't feel safe saying my location so I just said "Ohhh... umm...... I'm one of those pulse people."  (I added a bit of humor into it.....)

I don't think this answer pleased him because he started to approach me with a huge frown... and then started muttering something under his breath. I was backing away.... (It's a REALLY tiny island so I didn't know where the heck I was going to go away to, AND for some reason I couldn't fly. O_O)  Anyway, this weird guy started walking after me around this tiny island in circles, and from there everything is a blur. Then I remember that I SOMEHOW was hovering over the island about 10 feet up in the air and from what I can remember, some lady appeared was hovering next to me that looked a bit like Sylvia Browne... she said something to the chubby guy, and then I woke up.  (could the lady have been my spirit guide???)

I wish I had a pen and paper next to me in the hotel so I could have recorded this RIGHT AWAY while it was still fresh in my head. >_<'' Unfortunately, I had nothing.

I must admit, I was kind of afraid. I can handle myself really. I'm not scared of anything when I AP. But I don't know why I couldn't levitate! I felt so grounded on that weird island.

Well, either way, I'm thankful for this interesting and strange experience.
It's good that I'm fifteen. ^_^ I have tons and tons and tons of practice ahead of me.

Well, for anyone who has told their parents. See, I tried explaining to my mom about it when I had my first OBE. She attacked me with facts that weren't true.
"IT'S SO DANGEROUS!"
"WHAT IF YOU CAN'T FIND YOUR WAY BACK TO YOUR BODY?!?!?!???!"
"SOMETHING WILL TRY TO TAKE OVER YOUR BODY!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"DON'T EVER TRY THAT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I don't blame her. I mean, she's not as interested into spiritual stuff as I am, and is actually quite afraid of it.  She would not listen to me when I tried explaining to her that I will always be able to get back to my body, that it's NOT dangerous, and NO ONE will possess me while I'm out. -____-;; I even tried explaining to her that we all AP at night without knowing it.

She would not listen. She made me promise not to try again. She thinks it's a sin. I said "Okay... I won't." (what a lie)


But heck. APing is so much fun! I project almost every night! Nothing can stop me.  Plus, I'm making more progress with every experience.  I do feel bad for lying to my mom, but this isn't even terrible. There is nothing wrong with APing. I wish she would understand so I can tell her of my experiences as soon as I wake up. =[


What do YOUR parents think of this?

Let's say when you AP to someplace, for example school... and your friends are there and they talk to you.  Did you imagine that or are they really there talking to you...?

The weird thing is, while everyone is telling my not to be lying on my side when I attempt to AP, I always achieve it much faster while on my side!  So I was lying on my side, and the vibrations came. I started to float upward, and towards my window.  Unlike other times, everything I saw in my room while out of body, was exactly like it was in the physical.  And for the first time, I could actually WILLINGLY move my astral arms and legs.

As I'm floating towards my window, I paused for a minute and thought on whether I should look back at my body or in a mirror. I figured I wasn't ready for that.  I know it's nothing to fear, but i just don't feel ready.. so I continued floating. I floated right through the blinds and curtains on the window.  It was easier than I thought! I was finally outside, and everything was exactly how it was in the physical.  I tried looking around for spirits, but the place was empty and quiet. I decided to fly around.  This time, I didn't have to "swim fly." I just floated.  I wanted to shout "Wahooo!" But as I opened my mouth, nothing came.

I don't know WHY... but I decided to go to the moon. First I tried flying there. Then I thought I'd close my eyes and picture the moon.  That's when everything went blank. I couldn't see anything... I felt myself floating somewhere but didn't know where I was. I felt like I went blind. It was all blank. SOooo I went back to my body.

Yeah, boring but oh well. I decided I had to write it down somewhere.



any opinions?

It was kind of weird. I fell asleep when all of a sudden I realized I was floating. I realized I was APing... I kept floating around my room. But when I wanted to move, I couldn't.... I thought of floating through my window.... but couldn't. I circled my room about 3 times when I thought "Okayy I'm not getting anywhere... time to wake up!!!!!!!!!" Which was a bad move... because maybe if I waited a bit more then I actually WOULD have gotten somewhere. But at the time while I was out of body... I got a bit scared of not being able to move... it was weird. I was completely paralyzed. And so I woke up...

>_> Why couldn't I move? <_<

O_O My vision was so clear for the first time. I remember from other experiences my vision was a bit blurry but this one was CLEAR CLEAR. I could see every single detail on the ceiling, on the walls, shelves, everywhere!!


I just wish I didn't get scared. -___-;; maybe I could have gotten somewhere,


comments? opinions?

well, last night,  I got sleep paralysis, and then the vibrations came. I floated out, and then sideways. I remember seeing my arm as I was floating downward towards the floor... but in the physical I remember being completely covered with my blanket. Then I was back in.... I woke up, and noticed that my sheets were all messed up, pillows everywhere blankets flipped, mattress sliding off. I tried getting it back to normal but it was only getting screwed up even more.  THEN I woke up AGAIN ().... everything normal as it had been when I went to bed.


O.o I was really confused...

any comments?? ideas?

Well,  I remember reading in one or two posters' stories about there journey to the island, and apparently there were people there who weren't from the forum?? I don't know how long it will take me to make it to the island, but if or when I do and I meet a few people, should I ask them questions? If they're from the forum? Who they are? Where am I? o.O

Is the island empty when you're there? Or are there several people there?


Sorry for asking 3485739285798357 questions, I'm just so curious and excited!! ^_^

Well I'm new, (I mentioned in another thread) and I'm 15 and not too long ago became fascinated with APing.

So far, the technique that has worked best for me is through sleep paralysis.  As soon as I realize I have sleep paralysis, leaving is so easy. I just easily float out.

But the problem is... I want to WILLINGLY achieve it! Before I knew what astral projection was, sleep paralysis used to freak me out because people at school told me that it was the devil trying to possess you  -___-;; (Which is a whole bunch of BS so do not think that sleep paralysis is demons or the devil possessing you. BULL..)

Well I would always freak out and eventually come out of it... but now that I actually got into spiritual stuff and learned how to astral project, I WANT to get sleep paralysis, because it's so far the only technique that actually worked so easily for me.

Does any one know how to achieve it? Some times I get it once or twice or sometimes three times a week. It's different. I'm trying to notice a pattern in my daily activity that maybe reflects on the times I get sleep paralysis (ex- if I'm more tired one night than the other.... etc...)... but I get it accidentally without trying, that's when I think "Ohhh yay! I have sleep paralysis. Time to go!" and I float out ^_^


I REALLy want to learn how to do it WILLINGLY.  I've tried relaxing... blah blah blah but it only makes both mind AND body fall asleep.


Any suggestions???




Thank you!

I'm new to this forum, but I've been going at astral projection for about 2 months now. I've actually had some accomplishments and in the middle of one of my dreams I realized I was having an OBE..

Anyway, back to the topic. I'm not sure if I actually AP a day before, but I have a strong feeling I did.

I was lying on my side, not trying to project or anything, just trying to fall asleep.  I realized I couldn't move, my body felt as if it was completely shut off and I started hearing a beat in my head. It was basically a drum beat booming over and over again none stop.  At that point (for the first time) I realized that my mind was still awake and I decided to give AP a try. I remember feeling kind of as if my body was being electricuted (well.... similar to that, which I guess were the vibrations)  and my vision kind of widened a bit, and I realized I was going upward. I felt myself floating about a foot over my body.  After about 5 seconds I decided I wanted to go back. ^_^ SO I kept on thinking in my head "Okay back in my body! Back in my body! Come on! Back in my body!" and then I was back...

I seriously doubt it was a dream because from the corner of my eyes as I was floating up, I saw my physical arm.  Not clearly though, because I wasn't looking directly at myself, I was staring at my wall. I don't think I'm really ready to look at myself when I'm in projecting, I don't want to get freaked out by the "death-like" image of myself. >_>


Well, sorry for making this kind of long! ^_^;; If you read my long ranting, please do tell me your opinion.


=D Thanks!
