Okay so I was meditating in bed and got to the mind awake/body asleep state with only mini lapses in consciousness. Suddenly I felt like my laptop was sitting on my lap and I reached out my hand to touch it. As I did the whole scene opened up in my astral eyes. My room was very clear and lit with a purple hue. I looked at my laptop and all these cool things were happening on the screen... game characters jumping around and patterns. I thought to myself "omg I think I got it" referring to the phase. Then at the same time I heard in my head really loud "Yipeeeeee" and a moment later I lost the scene.

Hey guys is it possible to experience the void state straight away after you exit?

I have always just thought there was a delay in my astral sight but now that I think about it... it's always the moment when I open the bedroom door that I can finally see.

What I am wondering is if I'm perhaps projecting straight into the void state and then finding the door which sets the scene through my expectation of the door being my bedroom door?

I hope that makes sense and sorry if it's an obvious question.

Thank you kindly.

Hey guys,

Over the last few weeks, I have stepped up my meditation practice sitting for longer and more regularly.

I was hoping to start making some progress toward phasing and AP in general since for the most part, I am projecting maybe once a month sometimes less...

My problem is that lately every time I meditate I am experiencing uncontrollable spasms in my face.

I have tried to control it and readjust during the meditation which helps for maybe a few seconds.

I have also tried to simply go with it which usually ends in me contracting into one long gurn.

My eyes blink hard and fast, the sides of my eyes and forehead twitch, my nostrils flare, the tip of my nose shakes like a bunny rabbit and my lips curl.

It also sometimes feels like there is energy swirling inside my face and my eyes follow the swirling up and down making the shape of an infinity symbol.

Anyway, does anybody know is this something that will go away on its own or is there anything I should be doing to create more calm amongst the chaos?

Any links or reading material will be greatly appreciated.

Hi friends,

I recently read 'Seth Speaks' and absolutely loved it!

Immediately I am attracted to the idea of biphasic sleep patterns and I feel like this is something that's been calling at me for a while for a few reasons...

1.) I wake almost every hour anyway 
2.) Getting all my rest in one go always results in my body aching throughout the day.

I also like the idea of increased productivity, more energy, and potential health benefits.

My question is, has anyone here experimented with biphasic or polyphasic sleep patterns?

If so how did you find it?

And did you feel like it helped with your NP expansion and recall?

Hi guys,

My boyfriend told me this story tonight and I thought I would share it here and hopefully get your thoughts/feedback.

OK so we live in a little surf town in New Zealand.
My boyfriend and his friend had driven 5 minutes out of the village to this quiet rural road that leads to a really private part of the beach.
They sat down there for a while to smoke some weed and then afterwards, decided to make their way back.
while they were driving back up the winding, rural road something ran in front of them that caused my boyfriend to swerve and pull over.
Right in front of them was an 8 foot tall shadow figure with bright yellow, glowing eyes.
His headlights were right on the thing but as soon as it saw them, it quickly ran into the woods out of sight.
And he said it was super fast.

Both him and his friend literally sat there for about 30 minutes in disbelief at what they just saw.


Now my boyfriend is a very matter of fact kind of guy... very grounded, likes facts, isn't really into spirituality at all so I 100% believe him that this happened.

What the thing was, he has no idea.

Hi friends,

OK, so today I tried the experiment where you place an unknown card face down and try to guess it by picking it up in the non-physical.

After some light meditation, I abandoned the mission as my short OBE led me elsewhere.

I was outside in my vegetable garden but instead of fresh produce (as per my waking reality) the garden was filled with baby sunflowers.

I sat out there for a while observing before returning back to my physical awareness.

I kind of forgot about the OBE and this evening I decided to shuffle my tarot deck and pick three cards.

Now, I am not super experienced at reading tarot and do it more for fun than anything else but the cards I picked tonight were too intriguing not to share.

So I got The Queen of Wands, The Sun, and The Strength card.

All three cards are connected symbolically and relate to the sun.

The Queen of Wands and The Sun both display....sunflowers!!

Actually, these two cards are the only 2 in the entire 78 card deck that contain sunflowers.

Coincidence or symbolic?

Either way, I thought it was pretty cool 

Hi Guys,

I am looking for some guidance on how to heal from emotional trauma.

Day to day I am optimistic. I love my life but lately, I have been receiving messages that I need to heal the situation with my mother. Every time this comes up I end up a sobbing wreck. It's so frustrating because I thought I had dealt with this stuff. I thought I had forgiven and moved on. Perhaps I had just blocked my emotion in the past instead of dealing with it properly.

I don't know what else to do. I am not angry but whenever I think of the past, it hurts.


Here is a bit of my story for reference...

So when I was 5 years old I was sent to live with my Aunt for about a year. My mother later took me back but soon left me with another person who I did not know. Whenever I was with my mum as a child she was mostly not present. She worked but she also had a drinking and a gambling problem so I was left with my older brother a lot who often would beat me. I forgive him. It was a lot of pressure to lump on a teenager and I understand it would have been hard for him...

My father worked offshore and I watched as she drank away all his money, bringing home random men and sleeping with them in his bed.

We were constantly moving and I was dragged around to 14 different schools each time saying goodbye to friends and pets. I didn't see my wider family often and now that I am older, I don't really care to have a relationship with any of them.

Over the years, I have consequently taught myself to shut off to the world. I have become happy in my own company.

By the time I was 8, mum had beaten me and walked out and I was raised by my father from there on.

Dad was a drug addict who didn't have a lot of time for me but at the same time, I knew that he loved me very much. He would put his own needs above mine just the same as mum did but we would have deep conversations and he was honest. I valued the realness and our connection.

Dad committed suicide when I was a teenager.

I went back to live with my mum a few times but each time she would soon pack up and leave. I went with her once because I felt I had to but after that, I was taken in by friends.

Fast forward to adulthood...

My relationship with my mother has been one full of lies. She has continued to date multiple men (a new one every time I see her) and introduce them all to my children without my blessing. She picks at my weight, made huge scenes in the community where I live, put me down and never once been there for me without having her own agenda. She denies any wrongdoing not only in my childhood but ever and instead trash talks my father. I am a very honest person and denial grates me.

She has hated every single person who has supported me in my life and gone out of her way to connect with anyone who has hurt me. As an example, I had a boyfriend who was abusive and once I got away from that situation my mother tried to befriend the guy and take him out for coffee knowing full well what he did.

Over a year ago I finally decided to cut mum off after she was involved in the public bullying of a girl in my community after she was beaten to a pulp by her boyfriend (my cousin).

I have not spoken to her since then and have resumed my life surrounded by wonderful people. I am in a good place and she has never attempted to contact me.

For the most part, I am happy!

So why is there that niggle in the back of my mind? Emotional pain. Maybe it would go away if I forgive her again. She is blood and I don't have good relationships with any of my blood relatives.

Will I regret not resolving things by the time it's too late?

If I do try and resolve things will I end up in the same place as before? No apology, no acceptance, no results just disappointment.

If we are all connected, what makes a blood relative more important than those who come into your life unrelated but full of love and support?

Am I wrong for feeling happier away from my blood relatives?

If I don't speak to my mum (I would rather not), How can I fill this hole inside me?

Is cutting my mother off going to affect my spiritual growth? Will the issues continue on into my future lives until it's resolved?

If you made it to the end of this post, thank you. Any input would be much appreciated I really feel I need to release this hurt before the new year.

I have just listened to the audio book for Star Rover "The Jacket" by Jack London.

This is a fictional story but based on the real life accounts of Ed Morrell (Darrell Standing) who lived out a number of years in San Quentin Prison in the 1900's and as a way to survive the tortuously tight and painful straight Jacket he was so confined to, taught himself to will himself "out of body" living out whole previous life times at a time.

This book has evoked so much emotion in me. How strong is mind and spirit.

Just wondering what people's thoughts are.

If somebody dies and then reincarnates, would the soul of the person who died be contactable via a medium or would that soul have completely moved on from the other side back to physical life?

I am wondering if the reincarnated soul leaves some kind of energy footprint of their past life which a medium may be able to make contact with after the soul has moved on or something?? could the soul be in two places at once?

2 June 2004
I felt myself in the mind-awake body-asleep state so I rolled out of bed
I fell on the floor with a thump; I felt the carpet underneath me and was not sure if I had fallen out in my physical body. I stood up and was blind (which was validation that I was not in my physical body). I asked for sight and began walking down the stairs (although stairs lead down from my bedroom, these were not my stairs, they were wider, shorter to step and they winded a bit)
I made a mental note to myself that I could feel the carpet against my feet.

(I am struggling to remember everything that happened and in what order so will just tell it best I can)

I started walking down a hallway, the floors and walls were like that of a hospital, there was a room coming off the hallway with a little boy and older women in there she was comforting him and there was some kind of creature down the hall (can't remember if it was a lion/dragon/bear or mixture of the 3) anyway the women was shushing the boy but I could sense she was also scared. I knelt down to the boys level and told him there was nothing to be afraid of, I taught him that he was stronger than this creature and if he willed it to be gone, it would disappear.
The next thing I remember is getting ready to fly...there was nothing more I could do around here as I thought this I passed a mirror and told myself "no, I should try going through that mirror"
I did just that and ended up in blackness...can't remember what happened after that.

(There was more to this NP experience but I just can't remember, I know I talked to more people and I remember jumping at some point but just can't remember the details.)


Later I had a dream that I was in a hospital and behind the curtain of the room I was in was an elderly lady...I was with my friends and a nurse walked in and said "Please be quiet we are trying to revive this women"
I peeked through the curtain and met the woman's blue eyes, she looked exhausted and over it, they had her on the defibrillator. I turned to the nurse and said "this is cruel! Let her go she wants to go!"
The nurse agreed and then I saw her trying to persuade the doctors to stop.

I have been trying to do the phasing technique for quite a few years now with no success, I have read so much on phasing but when I attempt it I usually fall asleep (fall asleep whenever I meditate too)

anyway the other day I was staring into the blackness for quite a while when I started to feel like I wasn't lying down anymore, I felt like I was upright in the blackness but it was still just blackness...an image will come along every so often and I will try and zone in on it which I can do for maybe a few seconds before it disappears.

Is the upright feeling progress at all?

I just woke up and need to share this crazy dream I just had.

So I was sitting in this flat with 2 guy-friends. We were awaiting this drug dealer to come around and sell us some drugs. I was so scared of this drug dealer and didn't want to be a part of the deal however I wasn't so scared about being a part of his murder...we were hatching a plan to kill him.

Next thing I am on the balcony high as a kite, higher than I have ever felt and my best friend rang me...I told her how high I was and she wasn't very impressed at me being so weak to feel the need to take drugs. I got off the phone to her and the next thing I knew, it was time to kill this guy...we had already pre-planned the murder so I knew what to do. I didn't kill him, one of my acquaintances did but it was all very quick...bang bang and we leaped over the balcony and ran/walked trying not to be suspicious all the way home.

When we got home I noticed my friend was still holding the gun. There were people at my house having a party so I temporarily stashed the gun under some clothes on my bed...My friend and I began talking about hiding the evidence...I told her "here is what we will do, at 8am everyone is going to be rushing about going to work so nobody will suspect our car, we will take all the evidence out to my ex's farm, there is loads of bush-land there, so dense that nobody will ever find anything...don't worry I have done this before...yes I have done this before, that's right I have"

I suddenly started to recall another dream that I had years ago. where I killed a women, bound her wrists and feet and sliced her up into pieces discarding her body out on the farm.  The gruesome scene replayed in my head. I started to feel terrible having this memory just thinking "how could I do that" I felt disgusted in myself and sad for the women...I wondered why I had never heard of her family looking for her? did they just think she was a missing person??

Then I woke up and breathed a sigh of relief that I have never killed anyone and don't have to live with that burden...the strange thing is that in waking life I actually had forgotten that dream about the women, It was like 2-4 years ago. I think its strange that I remembered this dream inside another dream because even if somebody had of come up to me in my waking life and said "remember that dream you had about killing that women" I would have said "no"

This is not the first time my dreams have linked up either and every time I think its all 100% real...anybody feel like there dreams link up too??
Also can anyone shed some light on these horrible murderous dreams that seem to be focused around covering it up before I get caught. I feel like a freak dreaming of such horrible things.

Sometimes I hate my personality so much.
I am clumsy, forgetful and have next to no common sense when it comes to waking life. I am constantly in a dream world and often cut myself off from reality, I sometimes get frustrated and angry when people ask me questions or try and talk to me when I am busy thinking. I am messy and socially awkward. I am shy because I am embarrassed of my awkwardness. When I do get close with people and open up I often walk away from social situations hating myself because of what they must think of me.
Everyone else seems so "on the ball" compared to me. I struggle with common sense at work too and always feel like I am crap at every job I do because of it.
Having a bad day today, feeling really sad that I cant be like normal people

Hey guys

I have been only projecting into my own imagination for three years now. I have never seen an entity that has offered me any interesting insight, just random stuff like spiderman webslinging around the place. I have tried to go a bit further with consciousness many times but have failed. In fact, one time I actually found I was in a dome of my imagination and couldn't get out. Its almost boring now, I am over flying around aimlessly.
Tips??

Hi guys
I havent been on in a while and just wanted to say hi, I miss everyone here so much and the pulse in general.
I am super busy at the moment. have split from my sons father a little while ago so I am working 3 jobs and studying to be a teacher which doesnt give me a whole lot of time to keep my house clean let alone work on projecting/lucid dreaming lol
I feel I am becoming a stronger empath though (dont know if thats a good or a bad thing) I manage to block out strangers feelings at least....just yesterday I was explaining to a nurse about my two year olds thoughts (he doesnt speak) and to my suprise the nurse was blown away and said its amazing how in touch with his feelings I am..so that was nice
Anyways time for me to go but I may pop on tonight just to read through whats been going on with all of you and will be back when I get time 

Is there anything to be learned by listening to them? I usually ignore them

Every morning for the last few weeks when I go into my bedroom to wake my boyfriend up he says "hang on I'm just watching a movie"
I asked him about it and he said he can watch a movie behind his eyelids half asleep. He said he watches documentaries and usually learns stuff. He also said that he can rewind, fast forward and even pause the movie and go back to it. He said he is not in the movie just watching.
I cant help but giggle at him but am now thinking could he actually be phasing without knowing it?

Lastnight I awoke to my son having a coughing fit. I made him a bottle and gave him a few puffs of his inhaler and then went back to bed thinking in my head how angry I am at my previous landlords as my previous house gave my son asthma and now he likely has it for life. Anywhoo I took that out of my mind and began to relax. I started having this dream that I was walking down the street with my son when I heard him cry out, I turned around to see a few giant slaters at his feet. I began to squash them and as I did a message came into my head which was quite nice. It was something about any negativity I create in this life will be passed down to my son to deal with unless I deal with it myself. It was like a really cool quote though and I thought to myself that I must wake up so I can write that down but then I started to be pulled to the ground. I was pulled through the pavement, landed in my bed for a few seconds and then was rotated and gently pulled OOB. It was just another standard projection into my own subconcious. I kind of wonder round aimlessly (always singing songs ive never heard before) looking at things that I know my subconcious has made. I tried to make the blinds into the 3d blackness but had no success. I snapped out wondering about the message I got. Am I supposed to be dealing with something in my subconsious do you think? 

So I only heard about the photon band concept recently and am kind of surprised that this is new to me. Even more surprised that I haven't seen it mentioned here on the pulse before. As always I value the opinions of the astralpulse community and was wondering if anyone had any light to shed on the topic in general? 

Oh and I would also appreciate if anyone recommend some good reading material on the topic please and thankyou 

The past 6 months I have been thinking about vegetarianism and ascention. I believe vegetarianism is vital for spiritual evolution and I think whether we want to or not mankind will eventually become vegetarians anyway.
As we have evolved mankind has already grown enough love and compassion to not want to eat dog, cat, horse etc regardless of whether the animals have been domesticated or not.
Eventually I believe that love and compassion will continue to evolve and people will begin to see that it is just as wrong to kill sheep, cows and chicken etc for food.
I am so saddened at the treatment of these animals. The way humans farm then is inhumane and wrong! Its torture.
I should also probably mention that I am NOT vegetarian. I am very anemic and have been told by doctors that I have the iron levels of a vegetarian anyway, that is without the iron that I now take everyday.
I just wanted to talk about this here to see if any of you guys have any light to shed on this topic.

OK so of course I had heard about it and have tried to think positive and all that but today was differant. Today I watched the movie and today my life has changed....

A few weeks ago I cleaned out my wardrobe and got together a massive box of clothes to sell on the online auction site "trademe"
The auction sold for $51. I was hoping for $100 and I felt like it was worth at least $300 but I wasn't expecting it to get that high as I thought if someone wanted to spend that amount on clothes wouldn't they want to buy them brand new??
Anyway I was pretty guttered that it only sold for $51 but the lady who bought them never contacted me (I gave her two weeks and nothing)
So I re-listed it.
Today was auction day and after watching the secret I have been focusing all day on getting over $100 for my auction. I visualised the bids going up and imagined the money in my bank whenever I had the chance and whenever I remembered I repeated it my head.
but every now and then my mind would say over $300 so I just went with it.

My auction that originally sold for $51 just sold for $510 dollars....EXACTLY 10 TIMES MORE!!
YAY GO ME 

Here's a dream I had the other night.

I was in a crystal shop looking at crystals. One of the shop keepers called me over to a small group she was talking to about a certain stone.
Before she began I suddenly realised that I was holding my arm above my head and I couldn't pull it back down, I wondered how long it had been like that. It hurt and it felt like my arm muscle was really being pulled.
I started to scream "help me! please someone!"
I asked everyone in the shop to pull it down for me, at times I felt like it was going down but when I looked, It was still up over my head!
still screaming I ran outside. I saw a really big man and I said "Please just hang from my arm, you wont hurt me. just hang from it please I cant get it down!" He hung from it with his whole weight and nothing! I was so afraid.

I woke up....I was on my back and my arm was up over my head! I don't think I had ever slept this way before? I find it strange that my dream body detected this? Maybe I can try to do it again to trigger a LD but don't know if I want to in case it started driving me crazy again and I couldn't wake myself up lol.

Can I begin noticing whilst in sleep paralysis? I don't have the patience to do it the regular way.
Recently I did this and I was suddenly speeding through a tunnel like slide. The walls of the slide were glowing squares of coloured light. Also a song was playing that was kind of creepy so I mentally changed the song to one more familiar. The beat was spot on but the words were mush...It was a weird experience unlike my normal OBEs.

Also want to mention that I have just moved and got my internet back on and I have to say I have missed these forums so much and all of you here

Every time I am out of body every single person I come across has this sexual tension about them and feels like everyone turns me on. Its kind of annoying cause sometimes i cant get passed it. Does anybody know what I mean? Its really frustrating!

So lastnight I was lying in bed attempting to phase (as I sometimes do but it never seems to work for me) I gave up and decided to get up, I crawled out of bed and noticed my whole room was dark and filled with junk...Thats when I realised I was not in the physical..
Wow no sleep paralysis (loved skipping that step) and no vibrations either

Was this a phase or just your run of the mill OBE?

Also when you phase do you still experiance the whole roll/crawl/float out of body thing?

* Diet for projection
* Protecting yourself
* Pre-planning your journey
* Smoking cigerettes

I had a dream
but in my dream I knew at the time that I was in the astral planes
but I wasnt APing because my awareness was limited...I knew (or I thought I knew) I was in the astral planes but I had not come to that complete realisation of "okay im still in my bed asleep"
Also there was no intense vibrations although I did have some minor ones just before I fell asleep as I was over tired....
This dream was VERY intense and im wondering if it means something...I feel like it was more than your average dream....
I know I'm not being very specific but can anyone relate??
I would be extreamly greatful for any insight xo

Did a fear experiment thismorning and ended up having my face attacked by a cat but I didnt feel a thing. I have heard people say that they feel pain in the astral but it seems to be that I dont?
Could this be because I did not actually fear or think about any pain??
