Sometimes my vibrations are so powerful I worry about hurting myself somehow!  The other day they were so strong and electrifying that I opened my mouth in fear of cracking my teeth. 

Whether or not this was just my astral mouth or not, I do not know!  The pain of the rolling shocks is familiar and easy to allow, and I am always happy to have them.

What are your experiences or stories with almost frightfully powerful vibrations?  Are there any correlations with projection success versus vibration strength?  Some have told me to do energy work to moderate them, for example.

[I do not remember my first reaction, but this happened consistently for months]

I thought I would share my concluded experience of dealing with a repeat entity that accompanied my astral projection experiences.  I know negative, or perceived negative, entities can be a problem for anyone, but especially beginners.  It is a longish story but worth the read I feel.

Years ago I was lying on my back taking a nap.  I felt the vibrations roar over me and I began to slowly exit.  But when I did, I was in the void.  The void to me feels like being in a black lake.  No matter where I go there is ever more darkness.  I would sometimes see some brief hallucinations there, but nothing of substance.

I began to fly upward to go "somewhere," but a hand grabbed my hand and held me.  I do not remember my first reaction, but this happened consistently for months.  I began to fear the vibrational state for this reason. 

I would feel the vibrations, and sure enough, the gentle but firm hand would hold mine.  If I pulled away it held tight, if I relaxed it persisted gently to hold mine.

Has your hand ever fallen asleep and then you shook your own hand with the other?  It is an odd sensation, and exactly the same I felt with this "thing."  It was determined to cling to me, but seemed to have no body, no mind, and would not answer when I called to it.

I tried everything.  "Show your true self."  "Leave me be please."  "I command you to go."  "What do you want?"  Nothing.  Just the hand, always there. 

I tried ignoring it (as is the standard advice for negative entities), but eventually I would become unnerved by it's eery feeling. It would not leave, and it was always there, waiting for me to project.

Finally, I fought it in frustration and anger.  To be trapped by something waiting for you for months, it became too much.  I struggled but it held tighter, like a chinese finger trap.  I lashed out at it with hate and heavy, weak astral limbs.  It hissed at me and bit me on the neck.  I woke up in shock.

At this point my theory was that I was on a low vibrational frequency, and thus projecting into a low frequency realm, where this neutral energy creature would latch onto me. 

I continued to struggle in my projections, the harder I tried to fly away, sometimes the more hands would grab on to hold me. 

I asked my therapist about this, as he is familiar with this kind of thing.  He suggested that the entity was myself, holding on to me in fear.  This made sense but was a bold claim. 

I filled my heart with love in meditation.  The next time I projected I was filled with this universal love.  I was lying on my back facing upward into the darkness of the void as always, and the shadow hand grabbed my ankle loosely and numbly. Instead of fighting, I embraced the entity with my whole heart, seeking to join the two of us as one.  I felt sadness and compassion for this entity, and suddenly a tremendous warm orangeish light pierced the darkness above and shone on me.  I was being lifted upward heavily and slowly.   So softly yet steadily rising.  The hand clung tightly, so tightly, and in my heart I did not wish to repel it, as in my trance I was sympathetic and accepting. 

I felt the hand slowly slip as it's grip slid down my ankle to my foot to my toes, until nothing.  I continued to rise until I breached an energy wall, and from there I drifted as if in orbit until I woke up in an ecstatic mood.

I have not felt the hands since then, years ago. 

Greetings astral pulse!

A long time ago I studied astral projection on the now defunct "Astral Forum."  That was 7 years ago and this is my first visit to a new astral community. I want to take better control of my abilities and sensitivities and so am happy to find a forum such as this. 

My question, though, is more of an observation. 

When I first started astral projection my experiences took me to strange places, like temple gardens, red cloud formations, and deserts.   As time went on, I began to have more ascension type projections, where I would be immersed into a sphere of energy and fire, but once through the "sphere" I would gently awaken. 

Now, however, I frequently have OBE from the vibrational state, but they are very mild in nature, and most turn into a regular dream if I stay too long and lose focus.  For example, I will roll out of bed (roll out method) and find myself in my room.  I hear my family talking (but they are not actually, I have confirmed this) and I usually try to make it to a window.  Rarely anything exotic. 

So my question is, do you notice your meditations influencing the flavor of the OBE?  My meditations these days have been purely mindful, whereas before I did sufi love meditations. I do not encounter negative entities as much these days either.  Really, it feels almost a consistent neutral experience. 

The only distinction between a lucid dream and OBE is lack of control.  In an OBE my ability to influence my environment is drastically reduced, and sometimes I am forced to crawl or walk drunkenly to my goal, whereas in a lucid dream I am able to use will power to do a myriad of things. 

Maybe the neutral OBEs reflect my lack of goals.  I truly have no conscious thing to discover or accomplish at this time. 

Anyway, hello astral pulse and thanks for reading!
