Hi Gang.
First of all...wow. It's amazing what you can find when you dig. I only discovered astral projection last night, and I'm already obsessed. I tried for the first time last night. I've done some meditating, so I understand how to reach a trance state. I got as far as intense vibrations, but they scared me back to consciousness. I must have tried three or four times at night before I fell asleep. I tried again in the morning and got about as far.
But I get it. When I was a child, I had the usual flying/falling dreams. They were so real. I used to have dreams and I would tell my Mom about them. I told her I could fly, and I had powers like the force, that I could make things levitate. Even a few years ago (I'm 34) I asked my Mother about this. She said she didn't remember me telling her, but said my sister told her she could fly too.
But I would sometimes wake up, and be like, "Wow! I'm a super hero. This is awesome!" I would start walking around the house looking for someone to tell, and then slowly but surely realize I couldn't actually do anything amazing. It must have been a dream? But I knew it wasn't a dream, it was real. It was very, very frustrating. I could tell the difference. I just didn't understand until I found out about AP, or OBE.
I used to practice telepathy, even up to a year ago (embarassed) because I KNEW that I'd done it before. I was aware it seemed crazy but I would sit in café's and try to levitate pens. All it did was give me a headache. But now I'm thinking maybe I was astral projecting (or lucid dreaming?) when I did it, and that's why it seemed so real. I thought that maybe telepathy, and all that was a dormant ability we haven't unlocked. Who knows.
I'm not normally a spiritual guy. I like to go out with friends, kiss pretty women, work out, read books. I don't even like sci-fi books all that much. But I just know that there is more to my life and mind. With all of these people writing on forums, this phenomenon must be real.
