Hello,
     
     For as long as I can remember, whenever I look at the world a certain way, I notice,these dots. They look like very tiny white lights and move exactly like an orb would. They just kind of seem to float around in short distanced, quick bursts of energy and they are constantly moving.

     I have no idea what it is, I do not think it is anything physical, and I have seen them all of my life. Sometimes when I focus on them, it seems as if I can create a space in my vision that they cannot move into. Does anyone have any insight maybe? Thank ou.

So, last night I went to bed with the intent to AP. I was cut off short though, because my daughter came into the room crying about an hour or so after we went to bed, and I then rolled over and went to sleep. I had set my alarm to wake me up  a couple of hours before my normal wake up time; but I had forgot to plug my phone in so my alarm never went off. I woke naturally about 9-o-clock and went into the living room, as to try and project. I sat on my recliner and reclined back a bit, enough to where I wasn't lying completely flat on my back(I seem to reach the 'Mind Awake, Body Asleep;' state much easier this way. I lay there for what seemed like twenty or thirty minutes. I could feel that my entire body was well asleep, because even if I tried to move my body, not much would happen aside from a twitch. I noticed the buzzing sensation starting to happen and remembered that I should keep going, and kept telling myself 'This is a good sign", 'Keep going", and things of the same nature. There is no telling how long I told myself this. But soon after, I noticed that If i focused enough, I could sort of, see through my eyelids. I could see the window, and computer, and almost all of my living room. I noticed this for prolbably about a minute or so, and something must have told me to wake up, because I jerked up out of the trance and sat there for a minute, before coming to write this down now.

     A couple of things I observed while under this trance:


               1. I noticed that the more I talk myself through thie process, the easier and less scary it was.
               2. I also noticed, the more I talked to myself, the more I could feel my physical head resisting the urge to sleep
               3. While in this state, I notice just about everything that is going on around me, although not distracting as before, still am not sure if i should,                                                     ,                  learn to completely block out the outside noises.
               4. Finally, there seems to be something that tells me to just go to sleep, whenever I induce this trance, I am not sure if I should follow, even if ,just enough to AP or if I should wait it out a little longer to see what happens that way. I believe it is wise to say that it is best to explore both options to see which works better for me.


     I would like to thank everyone and anyone who replied to my posts and gave me advice, as well as those who read my posts and subconsciously gave advice. Without you, who knows, I could be trying at this for the rest of my life. You all have helped me so much and I look foward to sharing advice and experiences with each of you. Thanks again, and have a wonderful day.

     Hello, My name is Wes. I am from Alabama, and I am 25 yrs old(physically) I believe that I am an 'Old Soul' Simply because I believe not everyone can get to the state of enlightenment, that I have currently found and am currently exploring, at my age. It is not unheard of, just not super common either. I have been practicing AP, for about 6 months now, and have gotten close once or twice. My main problems seem to arise at the point of conscious release from the body. I also think I may have some very old, underlying problems as to why I fear the astral, metaphysical, etc, so much. Maybe something from my childhood, or maybe something from a past life; who know's. I was brought to this website through my wife, and I have posted a couple of posts about my experiences. I am very interested in Astral Travel, OBE, Spirit Communication(which is one of my stronger abilities, even though that is not controlled, either; and I still fear it) meditation, scrying, basically anything metaphysical, or anything of the likes.

     Like I said, my biggest obstacle to get over is fear. I have no idea why i fear this so much, but it seems the more I push myself to get over the fear, the more afraid I get. I know a thing or two about the astral and how it works and in many different ways. I am also accustomed to meditation as a daily part in my life. I seem to be able to help anyone, but myself, in this topic. I can give great advice, at times, and many people agree; however, I for some reason can only help solve other peoples problems and not so much my own.  I am very open-minded and have a gift for being able to see 'both sides of the fence', if that makes any sense.

     I am hoping that by using this website, I can read other people's experiences and learn from them. Maybe someone else here has or has had, the same fear that I do and can help me with a way out. Maybe by helping others and allowing others to help me, I will finally be able to consciously AP or something to that same affect.

     Thank you for reading this far. I hope that you all have an incredible day, and not let any experience, good or bad, hinder you from learning a lesson.

                                                                                                                                                                                            -WES

Hello again. I have recently been attempting to get my mind away from the physical me. I Can feel my mind separate from my body, but at the same time my body is holding on to my mind with a viciousness. I will be sitting there, or laying there, and my mind body will be completely relaxed and my mind will be doing things of its own, but my body will not be asleep and if it feels like my mind is wandering too far, I am instantly aware of my body again and basically have to start all of the way over, to get back into that relaxed state. Then I get frustrated because, I feel I am not getting the rest I need and then I just roll over and go to sleep. I have never had any OBE, or astral experience while I sleep ( I sleep on my stomach) and rarely do I have any dreams that I can remember. I am getting very frustrated and was wondering if anyone could help point me in the right direction. I think the entire reason I have yet to fully project is my fear of the unknown. It is almost like a phobia and no matter how much I tell myself, 'You are safe and nothing bad will happen." i just seem to doubt myself even more. It's as if my logical self, refuses to surrender control to my subconscious. Again, just looking for advice on how to maybe get to the other side of the fence, so to speak. Thanks.

Hello, I am new to this forum but not necessarily to projecting. I always have a problem either getting to the hypnotic state I should be in ( I usually take this as a sign that I have no need to project on said occasion) or I will get to the right state and as soon as I start to feel my astral body start to pull away from my physical self, I am instantly and sometimes abruptly, pulled back into my physical self. I have always just taken this as a sign that I am not yet ready to fully project. I really want to project for a number of different reasons, but it seems that I am not able to because of the 'buzzing'.

    Does anyone have any advice they could give to try and help me work around this situation. I don;t see it as a problem so much as a restraint on being able to fully unlock my mind's (and my body's) potential. Any advice would be appreciated and tested.

    Thank you very much and have an amazing day, year, and Life. Enjoy everything, even if it is not meant to be enjoyed for that is why we are here, to experience.
