Hey KosmoJ, this had been spoke about quite a bit on the forums, in a nut shell the sounds you describe are very normal, try your best to ignore them it might be what is stopping you from getting any further. [^]

You might want to use the search tool, on dweller on the threshold, or scary sounds..etc..

Nay

You could use rope.

You are making a lot of progress!

1. To remember your dreams better, just have a notebook and a pen/pencil by your bed. When you wake up, record your dream right away. If you only remember a little bit then write it down as well. As your writing you might remember more about your dream.

2. If you had controll over your dream then it is a LD. So congrats!

Hope this helps!

Hi Kosmoj!

You might have had the "vibrations," but then again you might have just had some tingling - - - which is a normal part of the process too!

For me, the vibrations, in the very beginning at least, were nerve-wracking, noisy, shaky affairs.  This is true for most beginners!  There can be tingling in the beginning, a sort of shifty feeling when the Astral/Etheric body starts to loosen.  One might feel a little bit of a rollercoaster affect in the stomach (I often get a little nauseated).  Then BAM, if you're able to stay awake this long,  vibrations hit like a train wreck.  Many beginners feel a strong yank on their solar plexus or head when they exit.  Others feel catapulted. But some don't feel any of that!

But let's say for the sake of argument that you DID have the vibrations and exited your body.  Sometimes blindness just comes with the territory.  I've heard that demanding Astral Sight is effective; just put out the command next time it happens to you.

Keep on trucking!  You're obviously making good progress!

Practise.
It gets easier once you ge the hang of it. You probably tried too much [8D]

2cents & L&L

I am not sure I understand exactly what you mean but to me it sounds like you are drawing energy up through your body, possibly out of your base Chakra. Do you do any energy work?

welcome to the board.  

have you read ad yet?  how about the treatises that you can access from the main page?  there are also many different projection tek's taht you should be able to look up on here.  i know that i've seen some really good ones.  

it seems as though you are doing well.  the vibes are a really good sign of progress and should actually push you out at times.  

when you say you awoke on your second try, do you mean you were asleep?  

keep trying different projection tek's.  the point shift method works well for me and i believe robert uses it as well.  he may have said something like it was the most effective proj tek he's tried so far.

do you make any progress w/ your proj attempts?  have you had any half projections yet?
