Dream "Another Ferry Dream"
Early morning August 25, 2015
"I took a ferry to visit a friend or relative. This was an English speaking location, most probably a coastal island somewhere in the U.S. or Canada. (I did not detect any 'accents'.) Upon leaving the ferry I walked the main street of the town which was very active and busy.
When it was time to leave I had to return to the person's house to get my luggage. It should have taken only 10 minutes for them to drive me to their house but for some accountable reason it took nearly an hour to go there and get to the ferry station. So I missed the early afternoon ferry and had to wait for the late afternoon ferry. By this time the streets of the town were very quiet. The ferry did arrive on time. The front end of the ferry looked like a submarine. I had trouble buying a ticket as the ticket counter had just closed."

Notes This dream included several "familiar" dream characters., ie people whom I 'knew' only in the dream world. I got a New England "vibe" as to the location but this could be because I went to college in this area and the dream characters in some ways reminded me of people I went to school with. The submarine shape of the front of the ferry is interesting. This is something I picked up on only after awakening. It might be significant. Yet it also might be a result of something Szaxx posted (on Astralpulse.com) regarding an earlier dream about a model seaplane ("Model Seaplane", which included a ride on a ferry.). Two dreams about a ferry are quite unusual for me as I have had only 1 or 2 previous remembered dreams about a ferry. So I will be looking at the news for the next several days. Ferry accidents around the developing world are rather common yet fatal ferry accidents in North America are actually quite rare.
We'll see what happens.

Dream on the Night of August 15/16, 2015
   "I was in a seaside town where the people were celebrating some sort of festival. This town may have been somewhere in the United Kingdom, perhaps Scotland. A man said that he wanted to confront (or maybe kidnap) Gordon Ramsay when Ramsay visited that town later in the day. A few hours later I was on a ferry. Gordon Ramsay was on that ferry. I sat at a bar and examined a wooden model of a seaplane. The model was painted and well made but had no wings. Gordon Ramsay gave me the instructions for building that model which he had found 'on file'."

I post this dream here on the chance that something about it is precognitive. On the night of August 10/11, 2015 I had a dream where I witnessed a helicopter drop at a 45 degree angle and crash into a river. The next day a helicopter 'nosedived' into a lagoon in Lagos, Nigeria. The American pilot and five other people were killed and 6 people were injured. I did not post that dream online anywhere so have no objective 'evidence' of it being precognitive. Perhaps the seaplane model dream above foreshadows a seaplane crash (a seaplane without wings) or a ferry accident. I will being scanning the news during the next several days to look for that happening somewhere in the world (especially in the UK.)

Hello All
Two nights ago I had a dream about the upcoming Super Bowl. Last year I had a dream about the Seattle v Denver Super Bowl Which came surprisingly true. (the link to that dream is here   http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_dreams/precog_dream_about_the_super_bowl-t43965.0.html  )

Here is the current dream from 2 nights past ---
January 29, 2015
A Possible precognition of Super Bowl 49. I was with a group of 30 to 40 unfamiliar people. Mark Cuban was there.The men eventually sat in a long line of chairs waiting for food to be served. Some of them talked about the Super Bowl. I said something like, "Honestly I have not seen it yet." (It appeared to now be 3 or 4 days AFTER the game had been played.) So I took a look at a local newspaper's sports section but could not find the score. Then somebody said something that made me think, "OOoh so Seattle did it Again !" Later I played catch with a black teenager and both footballs were badly under inflated. One of these footballs gradually shrank into tiny pellets. (Reference to New England's 'Deflate Gate'.) Mental image of final score Seattle 45 New England 22.




I have no idea if the actual game will turn out to be close to this score. But IF IT DOES then obviously this post will verify the precognitive nature of the dream.

Greetings one and all
Yes, I Really did have a precognitive dream about Super Bowl XLVIII (48) !! Yes, I know such claims can be hard to believe so you'll have to trust me on this. Here is the dream exactly as I wrote it down Sunday Morning January 26, 2014, which is one week Before the Super Bowl was played (which was yesterday Sunday February 2, 2014).
     Dream About Super Bowl XLVIII as recorded Sunday January 26, 2014
Watched the Super Bowl on tv. Denver versus Seattle is actually going to be played next Sunday. Seattle was winning in a route 44 - 0, (which is VERY unlikely). Then the game turned into a rock musical.
{End of dream.}

AS we all know the final score to Super Bowl XLVIII was Seattle 43 Denver 8, which, although not exactly accurate, was Still a Huge surprise to nearly all the experts and fans. Also note that my dream ended in rock music and rock music was played at half time when the score was Seattle 22 Denver 0 (half of 44 points).
So there it is. Again not exactly accurate but certainly close enough (in my mind at least) to definitively qualify as a precognitive dream.

Two or three days I ago I started a new post in the "Welcome to Out of Body Experiences" forum (or it might have been the the "Welcome to Astral Projection" forum.
The title of the post was "Two Recent OBEs" (or something very similar to that). Just a few minutes ago I went looking for that post to see if there were any replies and could not find it! Completely gone. I'm sure it was there because I checked it for spelling and grammar errors After it had successfully posted.
Can anyone help me find the missing Post !?!

Hello
Another older OBE that should have been posted long ago. This one was my personal best for 2012.

"Teleporting Out Of Danger"
Thursday June 14, 2012 (OBE # 118)
   This was one of those special events I am fortunate to experience once in a while. The OBE made perfect sense while it was happening but may now be hard to understand because nonphysical events sometimes do not translate into written words very well.
   There were three separate stages to this experience. The first stage took place sometime in the past (a historical BST) yet I am unsure when this time was. The best guess is the early 1900s or thereabouts. I was helping an attractive young woman escape danger as people were looking for here. Who these people were and why they were looking for her is unclear. Anyways we managed to teleport into the future to modern day France.
   In the second stage we were in a large abandoned building, probably a school. Dozens of police (gendarmerie) converged on this building. So we barricaded the front door and ran up to the second floor.  As police entered the building below we were joined by a male colleage. Feeling trapped, about to be caught and unable to find an escape we teleported to a top floor room. This gave us some more time.
   As the police closed in we were joined by another male friend. After collecting as much gear as possible all four of us teleported out of that area. We did arrive someplace though I do not know where it was, maybe a modern day location or a BST of the near future (??)
   This is only a bare bones outline and omits a lot of details. This experience was actually very hard to describe and was much better than it might appear to the reader.
   Notes Used the WBTB method so the time was 7:30 - 9:00 AM. Duration was at least 30 minutes and probably longer. I lay on my right side. OBE # 118 took place in what are pr0obably BSTs although the past may have been an alternate timeline. Modern day France may have been an actual physical location. I did meet 2 or 3 (nonphysical) familiar people although I have no idea who they are in "real life". Deliberate (passive), Emotional, Teleport, Pranayama (before), Affirmations (before), Rope cargo net (before), Hemisync CD (before).

Again this experience was actually much better than it appears here. Some OBEs just cannot be done justice by words.

This OBE happened several months ago, back in April 2012. It was an insightful experience to me. See if it makes any sense to you.

Out of Body Experience #116
"Primary Motivating Principle"
Sunday, April 7, 2012
   This occurred in 2 different nonphysical locations. Both were American cities and of those cities, Pittsburgh, was familiar. It started in the other unfamiliar city. I was in a business where a women wanted to talk to me. And then she disappeared and was nowhere to be found. There was a lot more to this situation, some of it has been forgotten and all of it was chaotic and confusing. Nothing made any sense so I was confused and upset.
   Eventually I realized that none of this was really important. Though the woman did eventually return she did not want to see me. So with no real reason to be there I decided to leave.
   Immediately I returned to the familiar Pittsburgh location (BST). Here I had to explain to a group of familiar discarnate men what was currently happening. These men were rough and tumble types so it took a concerted effort to make clear what was going on. And what had happened was this - apparently I was involved in some activity with these men (I don't remember what it was because it was very vague and dreamlike). Then I suddenly disappered and they became upset thinking that I had deliberately left. Actually I had travelled to that other unfamiliar city. This was not deliberate as it just spontaneously happened!! (That random travel, teleporting and popping up into unfamiliar nonphysical areas happens quite a lot in my OBEs.)
   Anyways it took some effort to explain all of this to their satisfaction. The rest of the OBE was uneventful and lasted for at least another 15 ot 20 minutes. The men soon left and I went into a nearby building where I talked to another man, heard an Iron Maiden song (astral not RL song) and eventually figured out a big secret of the inner workings in nonphysical locations.   
   Each nonphysical location has a main driving principle. To fit in and exist comfortably in a nonphysical location a person needs to know what the particular main driving principle is. As an example on material earth - In the western world the main driving principle is business and economics. The good aspects are material advances that lead to improvements in the quality of life. Negative aspects are greed leading to corruption and crime.
   So the primary driving principle in the unfamilar nonphysical location is unknown to me. Frankly I did not care to know what is was and so left that place. In the Pittsburgh BST the driving principle is 'amassing things'. Those 'things' are not necessarily money and wealth.. The 'things' could be almost anything, usually items of value but possibly objects / energy of a recreational or leisurely nature. Now I don't understand why this is important, it apparently just IS. In any event understanding this principle is an important intellectual breakthrough.
   Notes The time of this OBE was between 8:30 and 10:00 AM. It lasted at least half an hour and maybe as long as 75 minutes. I lay on my right side. OBE #116 was in both a familar and unfamiliar nonphysical location. There were both familiar and unfamiliar discarnate people there. Deliberate (passive), Emotional, Confusion, Flight, Teleport, Affirmations (before), Pranayama (before), and Rope Cargo net (before).

Greetings everybody 
After another lapse in updating I will relate a recent OBE. This one occurred in early March. Read through to find out which well known person I saw while out of body.
This OBE is titled ----

"Arena"

[/b]
Monday March 5, 2012 (OBE # 115)
The first recollection was being inside a large arena. There was a vague memory of getting there by walking several miles on rural roads. It was an unfamiliar area and the best guess is that this location is a nonphysical belief system territory.
The arena was nearly filled to capacity. With only a few empty seats well over 10,000 people were there, probably between 12,000 to 15,000 people. A basketball (?) game was being played there. I was not interested in this game and spent the time looking at the various people who were there.
Consciousness was not clear so memory is sketchy. Robert Bruce was seated a row in front of me a few seats to the left. For some reason I did not introduce myself? Soon the game was over so the crowd began to leave. I waited until most spectators had left and then followed a large group of people along several corridors into a food court. Although I was hungry this place was so dark and dinghy that I passed up on getting something to eat.
Then I realized that my light coat was still back at my seat and so attempted to retrace the path back to there. Yet after a short time I got lost and somehow ended up outside. Then I walked halfway around the building looking for another entrance but could not get back inside. Suddenly I was wearing a sport coat that had a set of keys in the pocket (keys to a house?). Now, apparently satisfied regarding the coat, I decided to set out for 'home'.
The arena was on a major four lane road. After walking for only a few minutes I realized that it was possible to fly. Getting airborne was easy. Flying was easy as well. There was one difficulty - I could only fly either very slow (= walking speed) or fast (about 25 mph). Flying fast required picking out an object about 100 yards ahead and then flying straight at that object.
This method of flight worked well for 5 to 10 minutes. Unfortunately staring straight ahead meant losing focus everywhere else so I accidentally passed an intersection and missed a left turn to another road. It was difficult to slow down, turn around and go back 200 yards to the intersection. Also a motorcyclist rode by beneath me causing a severe loss in concentration. To compensate I took a short cut by angling half-right over yards and houses. This worked well and soon I was flying over that other road about 100 yards from the intersection.
That annoying motorcylcist was there again disrupting my concentration. The distraction was so bad that I actually flew backwards for over 50 yards. Finally overcoming this obstacle I got back up to speed again by concentrating on an object (telephone pole or tree usually) 100 yards or so ahead and flying straight at it. I was covering 100 yards in only 8 to 10 seconds so was flying at a speed of 20 to 25 mph. This flight lasted between 5 and 10 minutes than I just reintegrated and woke up.
Notes. Time was between 7:30 and 8:30 AM. Duration was at least 15 minutes, maybe as long as 1 hour. I lay on my right side. Consciousness varied considerably, it was weak at the start. There was more to this OBE before being inside the arena of which I cannot remember. Focus gradually improved until it was very clear during flight. A failure was in not remembering any goals including visiting Astral Pulse Island or any other nonphysical locations from past OBEs. OBE #115 location was a nonphysical BST. There were many nonphysical (discarnate) people there. Only one person, Robert Bruce, was 'familiar' (in that I know about him yet have never met him). Deliberate (passive), Emotional, Flight, Game, Teleport, Affirmations (before), Meditation (before), Pranayama (before), Rope cargo net (before).

So I posted in the "Ask Robert Bruce Forum" over at Astral Dynamics just on the outside chance that he had either a physical or nonphysical experience in an arena about the time of this OBE.
Any positive response from Robert Bruce will be posted here.

["Unfamiliar Family"]

Greetings
Here I am finally starting to get up to date with posting my OBEs for this year.
This one took place about six weeks ago. It is titled  --

"Unfamiliar Family"

Monday February 20, 2012 (OBE # 114)
   This was an OBE where, unfortunately, much of what happened was lost to memory. The experience involved a large family from New York City. I had never met any of these people before.The father, mother and several grown daughters and son were very friendly and even quite passionate. I was especially attracted to one of the daughters.
   Maybe this began as a dream?? Not sure and I can only remember two separate situations. First that particular daughter, her brother and one other person were leaving to return to New York city. She wanted me to move to NYC to live with them (or with her alone). I wasn't emotionally ready to do that so tried to explain that I would make the move in a few weeks or months.
   In the second situation I saw her and other family members again outside a large high school. The location was unfamiliar and was probably somewhere in the NYC area. So here we were slowly floating up about 50 feet off the ground. Again I was emotionally confused and so avoided everybody. Memory was not good yet I do distinctly recall that the flight was particularly undreamlike.
   Notes Time was about 9:30 to 10:30 AM. Duration was about 15 to 30 minutes, maybe longer. I lay on my left side. OBE #114 had no familiar locations or familiar people but did have unfamiliar (discarnate) persons. Deliberate (passive), Emotional, Flight, Teleport, Affirmations (before), Meditation (before), Pranayama (before).


Thanx for reading. Comments and questions are welcomed.

["Mixed Signals"]

Greetings all 
Here are the last two OBEs from 2011. That gets it almost up to date allowing me to post the first 2012 projection here in a day or so.

"Mixed Signals"

Friday, November 4, 2011mn (OBE #112)
   Not certain when separation occurred. I was flying high over Farragut St. It was a bright clear sunny day. Flying was effortless and fun, making wide lazy circles over trees and houses.
   The only other person present was a 30-something woman in a nearby house. She might actually be a neighbor yet she seemed unfamiliar. Eventually I landed on her house and went inside. Immediately we engaged in passionate sex. This did not last long, however, only a few minutes.
   Suddenly I went from a bedroom into a dimly lit basement. The woman was not there and though I did expect her to come in at any moment she was never seen again. Then an unfamiliar man appeared. He wanted to have sex. I am heterosexual so basically wanted nothing to do with him. So he started to become agitated and soon wanted to fight. Then several other men (possibly his friends?) appeared and separated us. They tried to restrain him and the OBE suddenly ended.
   Notes. Time was approximately 12:00 to 12:30 PM. The OBE lasted about 10 to 20 minutes. I lay on my left side. This happened in a familiar location and there were several unfamiliar discarnate persons encountered. Deliberate (passive), Flight, Sex, Emotional, Pranayama (before), Meditation (before), Affirmations (before), Rope cargo net (shortly before).

"City And Country Flight"

Sunday, November 27, 2011 (OBE #113)
   This began as a dream. Because I did not record this dream until a few hours after it happened many detail were forgotten. The dream began hypnagogic and gradually formed into a full (non-lucid) sleep dream. It (probably) had something to do with CK in this local area.
   OBE #113. The OBE began as I was flying over Negley Ave. At first it was more like a glide, only a foot or so above the street going about 15 to 20 miles per hour. It was day time. The location was not an exact copy of the physical area as there were too few houses and it was much more open.
   After realizing what was happening, = astral awareness, I focused on flying and was able to go up about five feet. After passing across Penn Ave. heading south I continued flying over Negley Ave. for another couple of blocks. There were many vehicles moving about and a few pedestrians could be seen as well. Unsure if the people were physical or discarnate (they were probably the latter).
   Suddenly the location changed to a two lane road out in an unfamiliar rural area. Now I was able to truly fly, going up to a height of fifteen to twenty feet at a speed of 25 to 30 mph. It felt good to be able to fly yet it took full concentration to maintain height and speed.
   The flight lasted five to ten minutes in this location before my focus began to fade. Unfortunately all my (waking) goals for an OBE (including travel to Astral Pulse Island and revisiting familiar astral locations) were forgotten and went unrealized. Instead I reintegrated back into the physical body and slipped into a (now unremembered) non-lucid dream.
   Notes. Time, I used the Wake, Back-to-Bed (WBTB) method so all of this happened between 10:00 and 11:30 AM. Duration of the OBE was ten to twenty minutes. This included both a familiar and an unfamiliar location. There were many unfamiliar people seen though I did not interact with any of them. Deliberate (passive), Flight, Emotional, Dream into OBE into Dream, Teleport, Pranayama (before), Meditation (before), Affirmations (before).

["Return To Familiar Location And Obstacles"]

Greetings everyone. 
Over the past few weeks I have had 2 OBEs. Before I post either of them here I am postings a couple of older OBEs that happened last year. They are ---

"Return To Familiar Location And Obstacles"

Friday, June 3, 2011  (OBE # 110)
   This began when I came to astral awareness in a familiar location. It was a place that I had visited many years ago in a previous OBE (probably as a young boy). It was an open field, bordered by tall trees at the base of a steep hill.
   I was trying to find a way out of the area and suddenly realized which way to go. There were a few people there with me - a couple of men and two or three teenagers. They seemed familiar then but now I do not know who they were. I rose up into the air in flight and slowly floated across the field. The others also got airborne and started to follow me.
   After five to ten minutes of slow, yet steady, flight the location suddenly changed to a long hallway inside a building. Here we had to work to remove various objects including small pieces of furniture and boxes to clear a doorway into a large room. I had to explain to a maintenance worker that we needed to get to a stairway.
   It took ten minutes to clear the entrance into the room and get to the stairway. Then out group went up ten or more floors. We accidentally went up past the right floor and had to go back down a flight of steps.Then we traversed a long room or corridor that was divided in the middle by a commercial machine of some type. Various objects lay on the floor of this room making movement difficult. We were forced to stop and move some of these items out of the way. Before I could any further the experience just ended.
   Notes The time was between 3 AM and 4 AM. Duration was 35 to 50 minutes.  OBE #110 was in a familiar location, which was most likely non-physical. It may have been a BST of this local physical area. There were both familiar and unfamiliar discarnate persons about. Deliberate (passive), Flight, Teleport, Pranayama (before), Affirmations (before), Meditation (before), Rope cargo net (before).

"Highs And Lows Of Flight"

Wednesday, September 28, 2011   (OBE #111)
   This began as a dream. I traveled by car to an unfamiliar medical office building. Not much happened as apparently I was supposed to report to work there yet did not feel like working so soon left. A short time later I was in a large shopping mall. It was at night. Before leaving the parking lot by car I realized that it was a dream. (For the past several months I have been focused on transitioning lucid dreams into OBEs (and APs). This was an excellent opportunity to go out of body.)
   OBE #111 Astral awareness was achieved easily. This was now an AP/OBE. Immediately I took to the air. Flying was quite easy and a great deal of fun. Soon I was performing aerobatic maneuvers above the parking lot. I could skillfully execute loops, barrel rolls, figure eights and other intricate aerobatic turns. A small crowd gathered below to watch.
   My flying show lasted five to ten minutes. Then my concentration began to fade. Suddenly I was flying somewhere in the Squirrel Hill are (of Pittsburgh) over a street. It was now daytime so many vehicles and pedestrians were about. Elation had now turned to dark depression. It felt like I had little or no control over this situation. I was going downhill fast, both literally and figuratively. So I managed to slow down and landed, then wandered about an unfamiliar area. Eventually most vestiges of astral awareness were gone. So this experience transitioned back into a non-lucid dream.
   Dream. Here I watched a sci-fi movie about a sci-fi video game turning into real life. Then I was introduced to a salesman who was going to train another man, a young woman and myself how to market and sell the video game to potential customers, The dream lasted about half an hour and ended during the training session.
   Notes. The OBE took place either during early morning or late morning hours. I was in a (vaguely) familiar location and could see (but did not interact with) unfamiliar people (either physical or discarnate or both). Deliberate (passive), Flight, Teleport, Dream into OBE into Dream, Emotional, Affirmations (before), Pranayama (before), Meditation (before).

As part of an effort to catch up on some things left unfinished this year I am posting some OBEs. Let's start with these two which happened this spring.

"Flying Disk"
Friday April 22, 2011 (OBE # 10
Was flying over an area west of the city (Pittsburgh). I stopped when a classical disk shaped 'flying saucer' went past a short distance away. The place where I landed had a small maintenance building in the middle of an empty lot.
As I walked over to this building and looked inside a window a woman came over to me. She was a 30-something white woman. She immediately said that she too had just seen a flying saucer. I then went inside the unlocked building to notice several small, 3 foot to 4 foot, models of the disk shaped craft inside.
The woman and I agreed that what we had seen outside was not a small scale model. We had both seen a large craft that was at least twenty to thirty feet in diameter and eight to ten feet high. I related to her some of the stories told by Bob Lazaar and others who had reportedly back engineered recovered alien space craft. She was impressed by this and admitted that had she not seen an actual flying disk she would not have believed that any of it was possible.
Our conversation was interrupted by a maintenance worker who approached the building. We tried to hide from him but this man soon saw the woman. He got angry so I took the woman outside and we left before he could do anything. The OBE ended only a minute or two later.
Notes. Time was between 10AM and 11AM. Duration was about 10 to 15 minutes. I lay on my right side. The location was either physical or a BST of this local area. There were many unfamiliar people around and I interacted with 2 discarnate persons. Deliberate (passive), Emotional, Flight, Starship, Pranayama (before), Meditation (before), Affirmations (before), Rope cargo net (before).


"Short City Flight"
Wednesday, May 18, 2011 (OBE # 109)
This OBE was quite short. It lasted only 3 or 4 minutes. I came to astral awareness while flying over an unfamiliar city. Actually it was over a main highway nearing the outskirts of the city.
Moving vehicles were everywhere and people could also be seen. My eyesight was actually quite good. For just a moment I thought it might be a lucid dream. Then I realized that it really was an OBE. One major difference is that I was not creating any objects or people. The location, the people and the vehicles all had an objective existence outside and apart from my own mind. Had this been a LD I would have created the scenery and dream characters. In this OBE I just observed what was already there.
The flight was quite short. I went about a mile and got into the city. It was daylight, fairly warm and partly sunny. Astral consciousness, while it lasted, was very clear and focused. The problem was that it did not last. Suddenly this ended as I reintegrated back in the physical body. After a modest and unsuccessful attempt at deliberately going out of body again I fell asleep.
Notes. Time was between 8:00 and 9:30 AM. Duration was less than 5 minutes. The location (was probably) a physical location - an unfamiliar American city. There were no familiar persons there though there were plenty of unfamiliar people about (all likely physical). Flight, Teleport, Acute sight, Pranayama (before), Meditation (before), Affirmations (before), Rope cargo net (before).

Just out of curiosity I checked back at www.astralviewers.com yesterday and found that the site is back up and running. Now I did not log in or try to post anything. Also it looks like a good chunk of posts are missing, one forum had a few posts in December and then went all the way back to MAY. So maybe they lost something somewhere. Yet the site IS back up.
btw after AV crashed a couple of months ago two new sites sprang up from the old members there. Those 2 sites are www.astralvoid.com and
www.obe-one.com
Three sites out of only One, woohoo

Hope this is the right forum for this thread.
So my question here is about the website www.astralviewers.com    Many of you are probably also members of that site as well.
For the past two or three days the site as been down with a "This Account Has Been Suspended" message instead. Does anyone know what's going on there? This has happened before and was Not well explained afterwards by the admin/mods.

["Wide Ranging Flight"]

Greetings all.
Here is another one of my backlogged OBEs from 2 or 3 months back that I am just now posting. The title is --

"Wide Ranging Flight"

Tuesday, April 12, 2011 (OBE # 107)
   This projection began as a dream. At first the dream was a basic non-descript affair until I began to fly. Once I got airborne my emotions soared making the dream both enjoyable and memorable.
   OBE # 107. Very soon I 'awoke' in astral awareness as the dream had transitioned into an OBE. I was flying over houses in a suburban neighborhood. It was a bright, warm sunny day. There were people about doing various normal activities. Nobody paid me any attention. Flying was very easy and natural.
   This was a very enjoyable flight. During the next 10 to 20 minutes the locations suddenly changed 2 or 3 times. Without warning or reason I quickly found myself flying over a completely different landscape. First I teleported while in midair to a country area of open fields. Few buildings and fewer people were to be found there. Then just a couple of minutes later I again teleported to a forest. Maybe this was a state park or a national forest? All of these locations -- the suburbs, the forest and the country fields -- were unfamiliar to me.
   Lucid dream. Soon the projection transitioned into a lucid dream. Although a lucid consciousness was maintained I was now aware of creating all of the landscapes. And these landscapes kept rapidly changing, going from city to large forest to small woods to country fields to city again to forest again. All these areas appeared and disappeared in rapid succession. The lucid dream continued for about 5 minutes and then I was in waking consciousness in the physical body.
   Notes. Time was between 9:30 AM and 10:15 AM. The duration of the dream was 5 to 10 minutes, the OBE was 10 to 20 minutes, and the lucid dream lasted 5 minutes. I lay on my right side. The locations were probably all physical although one or two may have been BSTs. There were many people about (physical or discarnate?). Deliberate (passive), Emotional, Dream>>into>>OBE, Flight, OBE>>into>>lucid dream, Teleport, Pranayama (before), Meditation (before), Affirmations (before), Rope cargo net (before).

Thanx for reading this.
The OBE was not overly dramatic but was enjoyable. Note also the smooth transition from non-lucid dream to OBE. The lucid dream stage was skipped even though this was not an actively deliberate projection. Rather it was passively deliberate as I allowed the OBE to continue once the separation/projection had already taken place.

["Mary"]

Greetings.
It has been over two months since I have posted any OBEs here. So it is high time that I posted here again. This experience happened in early April. This OBE seemed significant to me at that time. However, I have had No further meetings with this person, physical, OOB or dreams since then and so now feel that this may have only been a random event.

"Mary"

Tuesday April 5, 2011 (OBE # 106)
   Strangely this began with dream imagery (the dream state) about a family get together in New Castle, IN. It was a large gathering which included my (deceased) father. However, I strongly believe that all the family members there were dream characters and that this was not an after death communication.
   Significantly there Was one person there who was out of place. It took me several minutes to realize that and when I grasped this fact I was immediately able to transition into astral awareness.
   The person who would normally not have been there was Mary G. I knew her from grade school and high school yet could not call her a close friend and she never attended any family gatherings. I should also add that back in school I was very attracted to her, had a crush on her in fact, although we never dated.
   Anyway, after becoming aware of the astral (or ethereal) environment all the family members gradually disappeared one by one. I quite expected Mary to disappear as well yet she remained.
   We began talking and eventually (ten to fifteen minutes later) nobody else remained. She was a bit older than I remembered her yet appeared much younger than she must actually be now. She had a subdued, even sad and melancholy, manner. Yet I found it much easier to talk to her now than I had ever before in the physical.
   We were together for about 30 minutes. And honestly I did feel some unusual emotions or vibes. It was actually somewhat unusual because I felt sad that she was so quiet and depressed and was also strangely excited to see her again. There was no sex involved although that possibility was certainly not out of the question. So, really, I am unsure of what to make of it all.
   Notes. Time was about 10:00 AM to 11:15 AM and duration was maybe 30 to 45 minutes. I lay on my left side. OBE # 106 was either in a physical area of Pittsburgh or in a BST of same. The only real person there was Mary (discarnate) as all the others must have only been dream characters. Deliberate, Emotional, Dream>>into>>OBE, Pranayama (before), Meditation (before), Affirmations (before) Rope cargo net (before)

["New Orleans Phase"]

Greetings everyone.
Here is another in the series of my recent OBEs. Although somewhat short and not very dramatic this projection was another successful transition from a dream into the astral. That is the method that I have focused on lately and it just seems that it might be starting to pay off in a big way. 

"New Orleans Phase"

Monday April 4, 2011 (OBE # 105)
   This began as a dream. In the dream I was living somewhere in New Orleans with Harry. For some reason I got into a nasty verbal confrontation with him. So I left and was living in a one room bedroom (probably in a boarding house).
   OBE # 105 I came to astral awareness after separation out of body had already occurred. I walked to the window in the small bedroom and peered through it. A grass lawn near a brightly lit city street was clearly visible. I tried to go through the window yet had trouble doing so. Finally, after several attempts, I just did manage to phase through it.
   Yet the outside had now changed into a long indoor hall. So I walked down the hall then went upstairs to look for people. The few people there were all unfamiliar. I found a bedroom and got into bed.
   A short time later I was harassed by a black man. We  got into a vicious fight. After that I met 2 familiar women. We went upstairs to their third floor rooms.  We were about to go to bed together when this ended.
   Notes. Time was 8:30 AM to 9:00 AM. The duration was 5 to 15 minutes. I lay on my right side. The location was a BST of New Orleans. There were 2 familiar discarnate beings, both female (Allyssa?, although Harry was only a dream character). There were also several unfamiliar discarnate people about. Deliberate, Emotional, Dream>>into>> OBE, Fight, Teleport, Pranayama (before), Meditation (before), Affirmations (before), Rope cargo net (before). The OBE may have transitioned back into a dream right before the fight because the quality of lucidity from that point on was decidedly subnormal.

Thanx for reading.
Also note that the time was after 8:30 AM. Here I deliberately went back to sleep after waking about 6:30 AM. This is a method (of altering the sleep cycle) that has been suggested by Bedeekin and other successful projectors.

["Short Evening Walk"]

'Allo All
This is another in a series of recent OBEs. Nothing too dramatic or mysterious about this one.

"Short Evening Walk"

Saturday April 2, 2011 (OBE # 104)
   I awoke in astral consciousness outside of my physical body and still inside my bedroom. Shortly I decided to get out of the house so got outside through the front door. It was early evening and was a warm quiet night. I made a right turn at the corner and headed down the hill.
   A quite attractive young woman walked  past me and then she went out into the street and just stopped? For some reason I was not surprised nor curious about this and kept going down the hill to Highland Ave. There I stopped for a minute or so while trying to decide what to do next. I felt uneasy, as if being watched or maybe in a needless hurry. Something was not quite right. Anyhow, before deciding where to go next the OBE simply ended.
   Notes. Time was between 8:45 PM and 9:10 PM. The duration was only 5 to 7 minutes. I lay on my left side. The location was a familiar physical area. . There was only one unfamiliar discarnate person seen. Deliberate (passive), Pranayama (before), Meditation (before), Affirmations (before).

["Late For Wakeup"]

Hallo one & all
This is the second in a series of 4 or 5 recent OBEs. This one was less arcane and eerie than the last one and was more like a 'normal" OBE. I called this

"Late For Wakeup"

Thursday March 31, 2011 (OBE # 103)
   This actually began in the dream state where I was driving a car on Beechwood Blvd in the Squirrel Hill section of Pittsburgh. I was going some place, yet could not remember where, so pulled the car into a parking lot.
   Next I awoke in astral awareness still in the parked car and still unsure as to where to go. I started up the car and drove down the street towards Murray Ave. When going through that intersection I was even more confused because that location did not appear to look like it should have. So I turned around and drove back through that intersection. Then I pulled over, stopped the car, got out and flew up into the air to take a look around. After landing back on the sidewalk I was approached by a 30-something black woman. She was of moderate height and build and attraction. She sensed that I was lost. I explained to her that I was late for something and was in a hurry. And then I immediately left her, took to the air and flew off.
   Now airborne I flew over the large hill of Squirrel Hill heading to the University of Pittsburgh campus in the Oakland section of the city. Flying was slow yet was not laborious. While flying over the campus area a man stopped and questioned me. He was white, in his mid thirties and looked vaguely similar to the actor Jeff Bridges (although he was obviously not that person).
   I explained to him that I was late for a speaking engagement at a nearby conference on paranormal phenomena. Actually what was happening is that I was 'late' in getting back to my physical body and was currently experiencing the paranormal phenomenon of being outside my physical body. This man told some people that he was with that I might need help flying over or around several large nearby buildings. I responded that no help was needed and that I could capably navigate those obstacles without any assistance. To prove this I took to the air again and demonstrated some flying skills, which were adequate yet not very impressive.
   The man accompanied me in flight for 2 or 3 blocks. The area was a reasonable facsimile of the Oakland section of the city with the most recognizable landmarks -- The Pitt University Cathedral of Learning and St Peter's Church in the correct locations. Yet many other familiar buildings and streets were not in their normal locations. It was daylight and there were many vehicles and pedestrians moving about.
   This OBE was just about over. There was some difficult flying in the next block or two, which I just did quite manage to do. Then I was back in my physical body.
   Notes. Time was between 6:10 AM and 6:51 AM. Duration of the OBE was probably at least 40 to 45 minutes. I lay on my left side. OBE #103 was in a familiar BST, that of a section of the city of Pittsburgh. There were enough differences between the places that I flew over and the 'actual' physical layout to confidently label it a belief system territory. There were no familiar persons seen yet there were many unfamiliar (mostly) discarnate persons. Deliberate (passive),  Confused,  Emotional,  Flight. Teleport, Dream >>into>> OBE (and maybe sleep paralysis?). Pranayama (before),  Meditation (before),  Affirmations (before) and also practiced rope cargo net earlier before sleep.
   Note 2 One of the affirmations I do nightly before sleep is to "Wake up at 6:45 AM or earlier". This OBE occurred right about that time. So I must have been in a hurry to fly back to my physical body and awaken. This is an interesting case of an affirmation working (in reverse) and facilitating an OBE.

This was another successful dream conversion into an OBE. This is the method that I am currently focusing on and it is beginning to work well.

Grey

Hello Everyone.
I have been fortunate to experience several adventures (or misadventures) out of body during the past 2 weeks. One by one I'll get around to posting all of them here. This is the first of those, titled,

"Road To Hell"

Friday, March 18, 2011 (OBE # 102)
   I came to astral awareness while driving along a desolate road along with my girlfriend (Barbara?). This was out in the middle of a barren land of steep hills and few trees. We were completely lost. We did have a map of the local area but had not been able to locate any landmarks.
   At one point the road went down to the bottom of a steep canyon. The landscape appeared to be the same in all directions. This was depressing as it seemed unlikely that we would be able to find a way out. We kept going and about a mile away near a hill top there was a fork in the road. It was a relief to see 2 prominent locations that were both depicted on the map.
   One landmark was a satanist church and compound which was only a few hundred yards away. A sign pointed to the other landmark - a magickal castle or estate that was about a mile distant. We decided to go to the magickal castle/estate. However, I took a right turn at the intersection instead of going left. The right turn took us into the back entrance of the satanist compound.
   This did not much concern me and I stopped at the first building in sight, a small one floor ranch-type house. We got out of the car and went inside. Nobody was there. Nobody was visible anyway.
   After a few minutes invisible spirits slowly materialized floating in midair. These spirits were, surprisingly, neither evil nor malevolent. They simply looked at us and I soon made a type of telepathic contact with them. They affirmed that the house was indeed part of the satanist compound. The church members were all human as fortunately there were no demons or hostile creatures nearby.
   We decided to wait for a doctor or professor to arrive. This was a bit confusing as I was unsure if this person was familiar to my girlfriend or if he was a member of the satanist church. (Maybe he was a doctor of theology = reverend?) Anyway the better part of an hour passed uneventfully. It began to get dark outside. We decided to wait one more hour before leaving. At this point the projection simply ended.
   Notes. Time was between 10:00 and 11:30 AM. The duration was at least 60 minutes, most probably longer. OBE # 102 the location was a BST. There was a familiar discarnate - my girlfriend. There were several unfamiliar discarnate spirits. Confusion (as to the location),  Deliberate (passive),  Emotional,  Magick,  Teleportation,  Time change (+).  Meditation (before),  Paranayama (before),  Affirmations (before), (and maybe a dream turning into an OBE.) Also practiced rope cargo net before sleep.
   Note 2. The beginning of the experience might have been a dream, I'm not sure.  Lucidity and consciousness in general were weak throughout. My outlook was mostly 'go with the flow' to see where the experience was headed. So I was reluctant to try to exert much conscious control as this might have abruptly ended the projection.

Any comments, questions or suggestions are welcome and Thanx for reading.

OBE Exit Poll 3

Greetings everybody.  Here, once again I present an OBE Exit Poll (this is # 3 of 4). Again there are Two parts of multiple choice questions. Part One deals with People and/or beings/creatures that you have met (or seen) while out of body. Part Two has questions about places (either astral or physical) that you have visited during an OBE.

Part One People/beings/creatures encountered during an OBE.
During Any of your OBEs have you ever met or seen ---
1) A member of your family? (This includes grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc)
2) A familiar person (including a friend or neighbor) who was not a part of your family?
3) An unfamiliar astral person (spirit, ghost or discarnate)?
4) Any astral animals (including familiar pets) ?
5) Any religious figures (Jesus, Buddha, angel, demon or a deity, etc)?
6) Any type of astral Faerie creature (including elf, sprite, gnome or elemental)?
7 ) Any other type of astral creature not covered above? (If so please specify.)

Part Two Places (astral and physical) that you have visited while out of body.
During Any of your OBEs have you ever visited ---
8 ) Any unfamiliar physical location (a place that you had been to before) but which was at least 10 miles from the location where you resided?
9) Any unfamiliar physical location (a place which you had never physically been to before)?
10) Any place (physical or astral) where you met deceased family or friends?
11) Any place that was Not of the current time period (have you ever been to a place that was forward or backward in time) ?
12) Outer space or an alien planet?
13) Travelled through a portal, a mirror, a tunnel or a stargate?

All of these questions have simple yes or no answers. So the easiest way to answer is probably to type a Y (Yes) or N (No) next to the number of the question. If for any reason, you are not sure about an answer to a particular question please just leave that question unanswered.
I will post OBE Exit Poll # 4 sometime late next week or next weekend. # 4 will be the last of the OBE Exit Polls. Then once I amass and collate all the info from the 4 OBE exit polls I will update and post (link) the Informal OBE Survey and that should be in about 2 or 3 weeks. So, again, thanx to all who have responded and will respond. If anyone has a comment or a question about anything then please either include it in your response or you can pm or email me.

Greetings All
This is my latest OBE. Though it occurred back in the end of January I have been somewhat negligent and am just posting it now. So take a look and see what you think about this one which is titled ---

"Flight To New Orleans"

[/b]
Monday January 31, 2011 (OBE # 101)
   This began a few miles outside New Orleans. I had already separated and teleported to a place that was either an unfamiliar physical location or a BST (probably the former).  So I am out of body in a quiet country area near a two lane road. It's a warm day and nobody is around. It's time for me to start heading off somewhere. I sensed a major city was nearby but was unsure how close it was (and it could have been two hours or more walking distance away).
   Fortunately I immediately realized that flying would be much faster and safer. So I took to the air and the flying skills were good. It was an uneventful flight, most of it anyway. About 10 minutes later I began to see a few people, some vehicles and an occasional animal. These may have been physical beings or they may have been discarnates. Very few people took any notice of me.
   It was actually a very long flight which lasted over half an hour, maybe 40 to 50 minutes. Towards the end of the flight when I neared the outskirts of the city a few people could be seen flying about. Here I had trouble maintaining height and speed and dropped down from over 100 feet to as low as 10 feet.
   Near New Orleans more and more people were about. A few people tried to either fly up or jump up and catch me!?! Only two or three people were able to fly. About 10 or so other people tried to jump up and pull me down. Fortunately I rather easily eluded all their hostile efforts.
   Of greater concern, however, was a series of (near) violent encounters with hostile animals. Most of these were dogs and a few were various African herd animals including water buffalo (?) (so maybe this was a BST and not physical New Orleans). Since the closer I got to the city the harder it became to fly it was extremely difficult to stay high enough to avoid these animals. A few of the dogs managed to jump up an insane distance (20 feet or more) and nearly bit me. Finally I  reached the New Orleans city limits after covering the final few hundred yards over what looked to be an abandoned building in a very large industrial yard. Going just high enough to elude the last dog I reached New Orleans proper and headed towards a main street.
   Now my energy must have been quite low. The flight was over as I landed outside a small restaurant. Going inside this burger joint I waited behind a customer who was ordering to a cook. Two more customers waited for their food in another room. One of these men made a disparaging joke about the restaurant's food yet I ordered two hamburgers anyway. The cook asked if I wanted cheese and I did. The sense of smell was quite good here as the grilled burgers had a very appetizing aroma. Before I could eat the OBE ended and I was back in my physical body (in Pittsburgh).
   Notes  The time was between 6:30 and 7:45 AM. Duration of the OBE was at least 40 to 50 minutes, probably longer. I lay on my right side. The location was an unfamiliar physical area or a BST (in and near New Orleans). There were many unfamiliar people and animals (most probably were discarnate). Deliberate (passive),  Acute sense of smell,  Emotional,  Flight,  Teleport,  Meditation (before),  Pranayama (before),  Affirmations (before) and also practiced rope cargo net before sleep.

This was a long experience, longer than nearly any of my other OBEs. The other notable aspect was the 'reality' of the restaurant which in all respects appeared completely physical (yes, even down to the appetizing aroma of the food).
As always comments and questions are welcome.

Thanx for reading 
Grey

Hallo All
I'm just getting around to posting my most recent OBE. This took place during the last week in December. This one is actually quite unusual and well worth reading. It is titled ---

                                               "Magickal History Book"
Sunday, December 26, 2010 (OBE # 100)
   This began already out of body as I viewed a magickal history book. This book opened up to pages of continuous film of 'history'. 'History' is in quotation marks because I believe that most of what was shown was an alternate history in a parallel or alternate universe.
   Most of what was shown was early World War 2 in North Africa. Italian infantry, armor and trucks moved across flat desert-like areas.This may have been Libya or Egypt or, more likely Ethiopia or Somalia (where some historical combat did occur during 1939 and 1940). However, none of the tanks looked familiar.
   There were also many scenes of civilians travelling on foot, sometimes with Italian soldiers. There were also other scenes of 'history' that looked to be during World War 2 but the exact date and location were undetermined.
   At times small graphic texts in the book would appear to identify various Italian tanks or vehicles. Other people viewed this book with me. I made a comment about this to a man saying that none of the tanks or vehicles looked familiar.
   After watching historical imagery for 10 to 12 minutes (it may have been longer because the book was fascinating so more time may have passed) a new 'historical' event was shown. A group of (Italian?) women had gathered to demand that a North African man be turned over to them to be punished for (sex?) crimes. The images were somewhat disjointed but the people and events were very clear. Eventually somebody inside a house turned the man over to the women and this story ended.
   Suddenly, however, I was actually at that location and not just viewing it in the book. It was a small town somewhere in North Africa (or maybe in Italy). I believe this was most likely either a Belief System Territory or a parallel universe. Anyway I was on a small street or alley near a long wall. The man who had also been viewing the book was with me. I scanned the area from a door in the wall and then walked farther along the street/alley about 30 feet to a small house. Here the OBE abruptly ended without warning and I was back in my physical body.
   Notes. Time was 5:15 to 6:00 AM. Duration of the OBE was 20 to 40 minutes, maybe longer. I lay on my right side. Location was either a Belief System Territory (BST) or an alternate universe. There were many people there (either discarnate if in a BST or physical if in an alternate Universe (I*)).Deliberate,  Emotional, Teleport,  Portal,  Book, Time change,  Pranayama (before),  Meditation (before),  Affirmations (before).


So what do you think? Strange? Unusual? dramatic? Has anyone experienced anything like this before? I'd really like to hear your comments or questions.
Regards 
Grey

                                                                  OBE Exit Poll 2

Greetings all. This is the first (of 3) followups to the OBE Exit Poll that was posted here about two weeks ago. This poll will deal with two separate sets of OBE phenomena. Part One will deal with common pre-separation symptoms. These are Sleep paralysis, vibrations and unusual noises (such as roaring, rushing or whirring). Part Two deals with methods of movement out of body and these include floating (levitation indoors), flight (levitation outdoors), and teleportation.
Each phenomena in both Parts One and Two will have several choices reflecting the frequency with which you experience that specific phenomena. Those frequencies are
A) Never or hardly ever experience that phenomena.(Less than 10 % of your OBEs.)
B) Rarely experience that phenomena (estimated 11% to 33 % of OBEs),
C) Sometimes experience that phenomena (estimated 34% to 66 % of your OBEs).
D) Usually experience that phenomena (estimated 67% to 90 % of OBEs).
E) Always or nearly always experience that phenomena (estimated 91% to 100 % of OBEs).

Part One. Preprojection phenomena.
Either just before or during your OBEs do you experience --
1. Sleep paralysis (SP) ?

B) Rarely experience unusual noises (estimated 11% to 33 % of OBEs),
C) Sometimes experience unusual noises (estimated 34% to 66 % of your OBEs).
D) Usually experience unusual noises (estimate 67% to 90 % of OBEs).
E) Always or nearly always experience unusual noises (estimated 91% to 100 % of OBEs).

Greetings all. This is the first of 2 OBEs I had during the last week of December. I'll post the second one in a couple days.

                                        "Deluge"
Thursday, December 23, 2010  (OBE # 99)
   The first memory of this OBE was as I floated through a crowded hospital. There were many nurses standing about in conversation with one another. After about 5 minutes of floating above hallways I asked a nurse how to get out of the hospital. She directed me to a long corridor that led to a large warehouse-type retail store that was part of the same building.
   Soon I was outside. Allyssa, in purple alien form, was with me inside a small backpack. Suddenly it began to pour down rain. I waited out the short violent storm under shelter. However, after the storm ended when walking across a large lawn I came across puddles that were up to 3 feet deep. Here I became bogged down in murky dirty water and felt extremely nauseous. Fortunately I was able to get to a dry sidewalk before becoming very ill.
   A few minutes later I reached a vehicle and then drove along a residential street for 15 to 20 minutes. The street ended in a gravel road where a large crowd was gathering to watch a golf tournament. So I turned the car around and drove away. This OBE continued for another 10 to 15  minutes. What happened during that time is nearly forgotten.
   Notes.  Time was between 5:00 to 6:00 AM. Duration was between 30 to 75 minutes.
The location was a Belief System Territory (BST, either astral or ethereal). A familiar being was there --Allyssa the elemental. There where also many different discarnate people. Deliberate,  Emotional,  Floated,  Pain,  Dream>>into>>OBE,  Teleport,  Confused,  Pranayama (before),  Meditation (before),  Affirmations (before).


Thanx for reading. Feel free to post a comment or question.
oh, btw I really do Not know if the elemental's real name is Allyssa, that's just what I call her/it.

OBE Exit Poll

Greetings One & All
This is an "Exit Poll' and yes, I know, an exit poll is something that tv stations do on election day to predict winners. However this is a different kind of exit poll. This is about your ability to separate your astral/ethereal body and EXIT your physical body. (Exit Poll, get it. LOL)
What I am looking for here is the total number of OBEs that you can recall. This can be broken down roughly as follows.
a) Never had an OBE.
b) Have had between 1 to 10 OBEs.
c) Have had 11 to 25 OBEs.
d) Have had 26 to 50 OBEs.
e) have had 51 to 100 OBEs.
f) Have had between 100 to 500 OBEs.
g) Have had more than 500 OBEs. If so please estimate an approximate number.

Question 2 When was your first conscious OBE or AP?
a) As a child of 12 or younger.
b) At high school age of 13 to 17.
c) When between 18 to 23 years of age.
d) When between 25 to 40 years old.
e) When over 40. Again please specify an age.

I am going to post this poll in several different websites so if you see this poll in another website please do NOT respond more than once.
Your participation in this poll will help me finish the "Informal OBE Survey" (to be found both at astralpulse.com and astraldynamics.com)  There will be one or two (or 3) more polls to follow.
When all the responses are tabulated the complete results of the OBE survey will be posted at http://forums.astraldynamics.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=16173
Thanx to all who respond.     
btw I may email or pm some of you who I consider to be particularly skilled at OBEs.
Grey

Greetings all

Another OBE to report here. Nothing very dramatic about it yet this experience Does have some interesting points. Note my confusion about the friend/thought elemental. Also in many ways this was similar to an OBE that I had last month (both were preceded by a dream). Here it is, the title is


                                      "A Friend? No, A Thought Elemental"
                                            Friday, November 5, 2010 (OBE # 97)
   This OBE began with a dream.
   Dream. Harry and I were back in New Orleans living in a large 2 room apartment in a multi-story building. I was resting on a sofa in a meditative state. I heard a strange noise so Harry took a look around yet nobody else was there. A few moments later I felt very mild vibrations and so became aware of the possibility of going out of body.
   OBE # 97.  It took 2 or 3 attempts over several minutes to separate and achieve the OBE. I simply floated up off the sofa and went up the wall to the ceiling.
   I was still in the apartment and Harry was also there. It is (now) obvious to me that Harry was only a thought elemental / dream character and was not actually there. Yet the location is not as obvious. Perhaps the place was an unfamiliar physical location or it may have been a non-physical ethereal realm. Or possibly I was still in my own bedroom and dream imagery distorted my astral awareness.
   Wherever it was I floated around up near the ceiling and called out to Harry to witness and 'confirm' the OBE. Harry heard and saw me and expressed amazement. I was excited at the idea of having a friend validate the OBE without realizing, of course, that the friend was not really there. So I spent a few minutes explaining the basics of the OBE to the thought elemental Harry. This was a mistake because it wasted time and kept me too close to my physical body. As a result reintegration with the physical soon occured.
   Notes. Time was between 4:00 - 5:30 AM. Duration lasted about 7 - 10 minutes. I (probably) lay on my left side. The location was either an unfamiliar (physical) Locale I or else an ethereal BST. There was a familiar being - a thought elemental. Dream >>into>> OBE, Deliberate, Emotional, Confused, Floated, Vibrations, Pranayama (earlier), Meditation (earlier) and (maybe) teleportation.

Thanx for reading. Comments and questions are welcomed.

Hallo to all. Recently I broke a dry spell of nearly 7 months without an OBE.
Here it is --

       OBE Titled   "Transition Into Astral Awareness"
               Sunday, October 10, 2010 (OBE # 96)

   This OBE was directly preceded by a dream.
   Dream.  I was living in New Orleans. Harry was there as my roommate. Eventually I moved out of that apartment and was staying in a very large warehouse-type building. Here I missed obvious clues for lucidity including furniture and items disappearing. Writing also kept fading away. Eventually this dream transitioned into an OBE.
   OBE # 96  This began in the large, mostly empty, warehouse room. I was already out of body. The place was either an unfamiliar physical location or else was somewhere in an ethereal belief system territory.
   My consciousness transitioned from the dream into astral awareness. Yet this astral awareness was not complete because I thought that my physical body was in the warehouse room. I was not physically there of course. I floated up about 18-20 feet to the ceiling. This felt quite good. I was mildly excited.
   The room was completely empty. I decided to look for my physical body yet (obviously) could not see it. This OBE was quite short as it lasted less than 2 minutes. Lucidity was not strong so my consciousness transitioned back into a dream, actually a false awakening.
   False awakening.  Here I tried to record the OBE on paper. Again words kept fading away so I finally realized it was a dream.
   Notes.  OBE # 96  Locale I or an Ethereal-BST. No other persons or beings. Travel-teleport, Deliberate,  Dream Into OBE,  Floated,  Short,  OBE Into Dream,  Meditation (earlier),  Pranayama  (earlier).

As usual I appreciate any comments or questions. Thanx for reading

[OBE # 94 "Short Float and Shorter Flight"]

Hello everyone.
This will get me up to date posting my latest OBEs. Both OBEs were fairly subdued. Please take a look, see what you think and post any comments, questions or suggestions. I like to tread your feedback. Thanx

                                          Out Of Body Experiences # 94 And # 95
Friday, March 12, 2010
   In the early morning hours before dawn I awoke in the mind awake - body asleep state. Vibrations were coarsing through my body and I also experienced sleep paralysis. I allowed the vibrations to continue and they soon became much stronger. In only minutes I was able to vibrate my astral/ethereal body out of my physical body.
   OBE # 94 "Short Float and Shorter Flight"
   I hovered directly over my physical body and reached down and picked up Allyssa the elemental. She was in her normal physical form of purple alien toy. The mental state that I was in was very enjoyable. I decided to get outside and to go flying. However, it was difficult to go through the window. It took several tries yet I did manage to get outside. Once outside I hovered in midair right near the house for only 5 to 10 seconds and then the OBE simply ended.
   OBE # 95  "Window Prevents Exit"
   Once again I vibrated out of, and floated above, my physical body. Again I took Allyssa with me. Again I tried to go through a window. This time the window was a more formidable barrier. Despite trying three or four different times I never got outside. I almost got through but on one occasion got stuck halfway in the window. 
   Then I went down one flight of stairs. I intended to go to the first floor and try to get outside there through a door or a window. However, I heard my mother on the telephone (? she was actually asleep?) and this abruptly terminated the OBE.
   Notes. Time was about 5:45 AM. Obe # 94 lasted less than 2 minutes, OBE # 95 lasted 3- 6 minutes. Lay on my left side. Both OBEs were in a familiar location, a Locale I. Both had a familar being, Allyssa the elemental and  # 95 also had the voice of a family member. Both OBEs included Floating,  Deliberate,  Emotional, Vibrations,  Sleep Paralysis,  Saw my Own Physical Body,  Meditation (hours before),  Energy-pranayama (hours before),  Affirmations (hours before) and Alcohol (hours before). # 94 only was short and had a very short flight. # 95 only had a barrier (a window). Note also that the light outside was much brighter than it should have been as it was still predawn darkness.

Hi to everyone here

This OBE took place a few weeks ago. It was not really special in any way and was, in fact, rather short and confusing as I could not see for much of the time out of body. The OBE is titled

"Dark Flight Over Trees (Vision Problems)"

Friday, February 12, 2010 (OBE # 93)
   This was preceded by vibrations. After a few minutes these vibrations got very strong. It took a few more minutes and several attempts and then I was able to separate. When floating above my physical body I was unable to see anything at all. I managed to go into the next room and could distinctly feel, but not see, objects that I brushed past or bumped into.
   Then I somehow got outside through a small window but still had no vision. Even vocalizing the affirmation, "Clarity Now" had no effect. I flew around outside for a few minutes. Finally I saw tall trees. This must have been another physical location or a Belief System Territory (BST) because there was no snow. Allyssa the elemental soon appeared. I went down and picked her up. Then we flew over the trees for a few minutes and the OBE ended.
   Notes. Time was between 3:30 and 5:30 AM. The OBE lasted approximately 10 minutes. I lay on my left side. OBE # 93 was in a familiar location, a Locale I and also in an unfamilar location, a Locale I or a BST.. A familiar being, the elemental Allyssa, was present. Deliberate,  Confused,  Affirmations,  Vibrations,  Floated,  Flight,  Travel-teleport, Meditation (hours before),  Energy-pranayama (hours before) and  Alcohol (hours before).

This OBE actually had some promise AFTER i gained the sense of sight. Yet just as soon as something interesting Might have happened the OBE just ended. I was not very excited so cannot understand why this OBE, and others like it, simply arbitrarily end with no reason. 

Regards
Grey

["Sorceress"]

This OBE took place last week. With the heavy snowfall and the mess that it caused I have just got around to posting it now.
You will notice that this OBE was well out of the ordinary. I cannot explain why it happened, it just did.

"Sorceress"

February 1, 2010 (OBE #92)
   There were no preliminary exit sensations. Not did this begin as a dream. It started in a Belief System Territory (BST). It was a large modern university, but with a very important twist. Magick was a significant, integral part of this place. It was not like "Hogwarts" of the "Harry Potter" books and films. It was very much like MIT or Cal Tech where magick was both part of the curriculum and a field of extensive research.
   Another man and I had entered inside a huge academic building to confront a powerful woman - a sorceress. This woman had obtained an ancient magickal ring for research purposes. She had then secretly and illegally crafted a copy of the ring. My friend and I learned about this and had then somehow obtained (stolen?) the second ring. We were there to denounce her.
   The encounter did not go well for us, however. The woman was much more powerful than we had anticipated. She nearly managed to get the illicit ring back by deceit (hypnosis??). I was then forced to destroy that ring right in front of her. This made her extremely angry. When several of her male assistants came forward to confront us it was time to leave. After flying up to near the top of the high domed ceiling my associate and I flew out of the vast room and then made our way outside the building.
   Following this we flew to his large affluent apartment a short distance away. There we had a heated discussion. My friend had lost his nerve and wanted no more confrontations with the sorceress. He was a professor at the university. So perhaps he was concerned about losing his professorship and the prestige and affluence that went with it. I was highly disappointed with him and left. I somehow realized that there was danger ahead and so felt that it was either necessary to take dramatic (and dangerous) action or else to find a new ally.
   For a short time I took a flight over the nearby urban area. Two men soon approached me. One man was somewhere in his mid thirties, the other man was older by about 20 years. They both offered me their assistance in opposing the malevolent sorceress.
   First we celebrated the earlier success of destroying the elicit ring by playing an airborne game. It was part flying football and part aerial tag. Sometime during this game we were ambushed in midair by several men. A sprawling midair melee ensued.  After about 10 minutes the assailants were driven away. Shortly after this the OBE abruptly ended.
   Notes. The time was anywhere between 2 AM and 6 AM, This was a very long OBE, lasting more than an hour. I lay on my right side. OBE # 92 Locale was an unfamiliar BST.There were many discarnate people there. Deliberate,  Travel-teleport,  Flight,  Floated,  Fight,  Emotional,  Pain,  Magick,  Energy-pranayama (hours before),  Meditation (hours before),  Affirmations (hours before), Dying OOB.

["College Town BST"]

Hallo all
I continue have success at inducing an OBE from a lucid dream. This one happened just a few days ago.

"College Town BST"

Sunday, January 17, 2010 (OBE # 91)

   As with other recent OBEs this began with a dream. In the dream I was about to take a shower. I turned on the water and got undressed. Suddenly the room was completely empty - no shower stall, no sink, nothing. Just a totally empty room with bare white walls.. I became lucid.
   OBE. I opened up the window and looked out to observe a sprawling modern city. It appeared to be the campus of a major university. I flew out of the window and mentally dressed myself. The location was obviously a Belief System Territory (BST (non-physical)). Large 3, 4 and 5 story brick buildings were spaced well apart. A few wide streets could be seen although very few vehicles were visible. Most of the immediate area was connected by narrow concrete paths the ran between low hilly grassy fields. There were not many large trees to be seen yet there was alot of smaller vegetation everywhere.
   People were walking about in warm daylight. These were discarnate people, probably a mixture of OBEers, dreamers and physically deceased persons. Though these people could see me hardly any of them paid me more than a quick glance as my flying did not attract much attention. Perhaps these people were too busy hurrying to a class or to their place of work? I flew around for about 5 minutes trying to find street signs but there were none to be seen. (Has anyone ever seen a street sign or an address number in the RTZ? Or in a BST??)
   Finally I got bored so decided to swoop down, land and pick up a hot college age girl. Here the OBE faded into a dream.
   Notes. Time was about 9:45 to 10:15 AM. The OBE lasted from 5 to 15 minutes. The dream (before and after the OBE) lasted another 10 to 20 minutes. I lay on my right side. OBE #91 The location was a BST which was Not familiar. There were no familiar persons there. There were unfamiliar discarnate persons there (most were about college age or slightly older). Dream>>Into>>OBE,  Deliberate,  Flight,  Emotional, Travel-teleport,  OBE>>Into>>Dream,  Meditation (hours before),  Energy-pranayama (hours before).

[Out Of Body Experience "High Energy Flight" (#90)]

Hi all

Fortunately I can report another OBE that took place Sunday (Two in one week!!!)
This one was facilitated both by a sudden surge of emotional energy and the desire for flight.

Out Of Body Experience "High Energy Flight" (#90)

Sunday, January 3, 2010

   Similar to the OBE that occured 5 days ago (OBE #89 December 29, 2009) this OBE began with a dream.
   Dream It began in a small house in a country area of Massachussetts. I stayed there with BR and MK (2 college friends back in the day). Nothing much of interest happened until I took a walk through nearby open rolling fields. I expressed a desire to fly and became lucid. A significant shift in consciousness took place and an OBE began.
   OBE  It was a sunny warm summer day. Now of course it is a cold January in the physical world so therefore the location was not a Real Time Zone and must have been a non-physical Belief System Territory. I was excited to have the chance to fly. This emotional energy was both an advantage and a disadvantage.  The advantage was that this excitement provided enough extra emotional energy to allow me to float up off the ground and slowly fly over the field out of body. There was an intense focus and intention on flying. I was able to stay airborne for at least 5 to 10 minutes. (I sort of lost the sense of time here. Best guess is about 7 - 8 minutes.) However there was a limitation - I could only fly at walking/running speed and could not ascend higher than about 20 feet.
   The disadvantage of my emotional state was that it acted as a barrier and prevented me from extending the OBE or from performing any activity other than flying. I was totally concentrated on flying and that was all. Nothing else was really possible. So when the flight ended as I slowly floated down to land on the grassy field that short burst of extra emotional energy was expended. Now my mental focus was gone and the OBE was over.
   Dream The excitement had basically ended and I returned back into the dream state.
   Notes. Time of this OBE was 9:45 to 10:30 AM. I had fortunately decided to sleep in and try to induce an OBE and/or LD. Duration of the OBE was 6 to 10 minutes. The dream (before and after the projection) lasted 45 minutes or more. I lay on my right side. OBE #90. No familiar location. The only Familiar people were dream characters in the dream. There were Unfamiliar Persons - Discarnate people and animals in the fields. Dream Into OBE,  Deliberate, Emotional,  Flight, Travel-teleport,  Meditaion (before the OBE),  Energy-pranayama (before the OBE) and OBE Ended Into Dream.

This OBE showed me that excitement CAN be a positive factor in an OBE IF it can be controlled. Then the energy can be focused on a specific goal or intention, in this instance Flight.

Grey

Hallo to everybody at AstralPulse and Happy New Year.!!
Here is an OBE I had a couple nights ago. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

"Portal To A Dark Land"

Tuesday, December 29, 2009 (OBE # 89)
   The OBE was preceded by a dream. In the dream I had fallen asleep in an unfamiliar bedroom apartment. I woke up to see a large black and white frosted glass window in that bedroom. It appeared very strange, most unusual. I got up and went over to investigate it. I stood in front of this window for a short minute and then realized that it was a portal to another dimension. Suddenly, on an inspired impulse, I jumped through the frosted glass window.
   OBE proper ( 89) Suddenly I was out of body flying hundreds of feet above a strange land. The terrain was mostly steep hills and gullies with no trees and little (if any) vegetation. It was a dark cloudy night and the land below looked a dull colorless black and white and grey.
   Quickly my elation turned to quick concern.Though flying is a joy I suddenly did not now feel safe and could sense, though could not see, strong presences somewhere nearby. I twisted about in the air looking for signs of life. Something ethereal seemed to dart about in nearby wispy clouds. Suddenly the OBE was over as abruptly as it had begun. I was back in waking consciousness in my room in the physical.
   Notes -- Time was almost exactly 7:00 AM. Duration of this OBE was quite short - it lasted one minute or less. I believe the dream was actually in my bedroom. The frosted glass window was my perception of the only window in the room. When I went through that window then the OBE began but not directly outside above the street but in some far distant location. OBE #89 No familiar location(s). Locale I and or a BST. Unfamiliar being(s) were Discarnate flying creature(s). Dream Into OBE,  Deliberate,  Portal,  Flight,  Emotional,  Meditation (hours before), Energy-pranayama (hours before), Short (less than 2 minutes).

Thanx for reading, Regards
