Let me start off by saying that I am NOT new to this topic. I used to do a lot of research on astral projection and tried really hard to do it, but had only minute success. The reason I'm posting this now is because I think I may have achieved it without intending to when I first went to sleep, and I want some confirmation so that I'll be motivated to keep trying. Here's the story:
I went out last night with some friends and got pretty trashed. Came home this morning after only a couple of hours of sleep and basically passed out on the couch. I woke up for some reason and tried to go back to sleep. When I was really close to falling asleep I started hearing this LOUD roaring noise. It was literally all I could hear. Sounded like my house was getting hit by a tornado and an earthquake at the same time. I read about " vibrations" when I was doing research on astral projection, so I immediately realized that I might be onto something. I tried to make the noise louder if that makes sense. Once I felt it was loud enough I tried to slowly get up but not move? I'm not sure how I was doing that. But anyways, eventually I opened my eyes and I was standing up. I looked back to look at where I was laying to see if my body was still on the couch and it was, so I thought, "sweet, I'm out of my body" I went over to the bedroom and then the bathroom and looked in the mirror and there i was, wearing the same clothes and everything. On my way back out of the bathroom I decided to try and hover. And I did. And then I went out into my balcony and launched off into the distance (I live 17 stories up) and then I opened my eyes and it was over.
I want to believe this is an OBE but there are a couple of discrepancies in what I saw while I was "astral"
1. My house looked organized. Its not. I even saw some nail clippers on the dresser in the bedroom and took a mental note of it. When I went to go look after I woke up, they weren't there.
2. I was wearing the same clothes when I looked in the mirror, but when I looked back at my body, my legs were exposed, I'm wearing jeans.
What do you guys think? Dream? Or OBE?
