Kangaroos scare the cr@p out of me and I live in Oregon for Gadz sake.

Yes, plausible but it is difficult to be sure where you are sometimes. Like I said, for me it is not uncommon to mix the messages. Well I tried anyway.

I think some who try these tests need to give more information. I try to create a whole picture of the person. This includes the thoughts, emotions, brief recent history - the ambiance of the place I wish to go. To many options when it is just a picture of a desk in a corner. I can usually "feel" a person but "place" is much more difficult unless it has some historical reference.

Anyone else?

She must have been watching this thread.

You sure it's not an outside joke between you and some enemies?

Kodemaster did not answer your question any more than I did. Go figure.

Let us not forget the original paradigm. Everyone, every person projects. We all do it. Some are aware of it, most are not. This does not mean that those who are aware are the greatest participants. The only rarity is those who report the experience.

Can I play too?

I wish everyone would. We must help however we can.

You must be very calculating in this business!

IN THE BEGINNING there was only (insert singular God name here). He (yes, a he) looked around and was completely bored all by himself. He could create anything but really only was pandered at and never really felt he was TRULY respected. So He created from within himself a dual nature component which was the Holy Ghost (really just his feminine side, some fertile and nurturing aspect). Well, eventually after some arguing they made up and got bizy wid it. LO AND BEHOLD a Son was born and Adam Kadmon was his name. Since birth poor Adam was constantly into mischief and so has been sent to his room called Earth until he can admit to his wrong doings and apologize. At some point, whilst in his room, Adams female nature became obvious and so he produced billions of other Adams called Men (which is actually man AND woman, why I don't know). Now all heck has broke loose and the Holy Trinity is just not the same. I don't think it could be called a "figment" although I think that was what Adam wore initially when he was confused about his sexuality. Anyway, the Holy Trinity is composed of one, THE ONE, and so, yeah, that might be why you feel confused or alone.

This was posted for PR to help make things seem less simplistic.

Normal being "an unseen force dragging" you around? Interesting. I have been "pulled upwards" to places and could feel the grip and strength of a "hand". It was at my request for assistance though and not against my will. I guess that is my dilemma. I have not any experience with something being contrary to my will, or maybe I have, I'll have to mull this one over a bit more. PR's version sounds kinda exciting though. I would demand to know who/what and why though. Really sounds like a self imposed experience to me. Loss of control.

I would participate in a poll. I love polls. I hate politics though. Polls of politics are apparently not good indicators of fact. Average is 75%? I guess I never knew that either.

Learning something everyday.

Yea to that although I haven't the foggiest HOW to really remote view anything. Never seems to work for me. Maybe that's why I am so grumpy today.

Hmmmmmm...

I am scratching my head. The wonder of it all...

"Is this normal?"

It might be normal for you.

I find here in these forums many similarities to experiences I have had. But I just had to say - NORMAL? I'm not convinced there really is anything normal about this practice. What I experience is normal for me though!
Also - the "door" is not your only way out.

Oh, and I wanted to add that "experience is validation (verification)". I think someone could just as easily "guess" what is on your desk (intuition). Tests such as these are purely coincidental to the experience. When projecting to the etheric it is quite possible for me to create anything on your desk to the degree that I would not know if it was placed there by you or my own preconception. For example, if my body had the urge to urinate I might subconsciously form the image of a toilet on your desk. The "idea" of it BEING a "desk" might encourage me to see things which are clearly to be associated with a desk - pens, paper, pictures, computer/typewriter or etc. The imagination is very powerful despite intention.

The object is a globe.

I like Xanths last reply. You might try requesting a "guide".  "Guide" means different things for different people but I am sure you may very well find out what it means for you! It takes a little effort and force of Will to summon your "guide". I allow some emotion to slip into that particular request. It has always paid off.

Thinking of a location can be difficult because, whereas you may have predetermined what the location might be, you may not remember where it was once you are holding your awareness to remain conscious. Does that make sense? I find locations "come" to me more than I would say I come to the location.

Sounds like you are tired. Are you getting enough restful sleep? Probably a dumb question but...

I can relate to what you are saying. I was having so much difficulty projecting recently that I quit posting here (to the relief of some, perhaps  ) and had to focus on reorganizing my time. I was just too tired. Working graveyard shifts, keeping up with the kids, working hard in the garden, dealing with finances, cooking and cleaning, etc. I'm sure you know what I mean considering you are giving yourself nine minute time blocks for your practice!

I like what CFTraveler says but the obvious might not be so obvious (duh to me).

BTW - I have used the snooze alarm trick for many many years but only for dream to lucid dreaming. Works like a charm for that, keeps my mind right in between sleep and awake. I never really use that time to project. I suppose though the "practice" time is good.

Disclaimer - I don't usually interpret dreams so please just allow my opinion for your consideration.

"What do you think it means?" - It means exactly what you think it means.

"I don't understand it at all.. why a door?" - You are trying to block something out.

"Why do i always have to hold that same old front door with all my strength?" - You are afraid of letting something in. Afraid of being hurt. Afraid of giving in. Afraid you might not have enough strength.

"Why does the lock slip out?" - It cannot remain locked because you are aware that what is outside CAN come in. There was never a lock in the first place, only appeared to be a lock.

"I've never had a problem with that front door in real life, so i don't understand.." - Don't try to understand. I would wonder why your not worried about the back door or the windows as well.

Next time don't resist. Just open the door and welcome them in. Nothing can hurt you there. Don't run from these things. Face them. Don't fight. Dreams can be a learning experience in this regard. I don't typically find my dreams really mean much anymore. It seems all I do is have fun and cause trouble. Emotional stress or internal conflicts can certainly forge some intense and even frightening dream sequences though.

Food for thought - What are you afraid of? Is there a truth you are having trouble with?

Hypnagogic sensations. These, IMHO, are a relatively reliable signpost of impending sleep. This is a great time to work through to projection.

Fondling your own hand. LOL. I've done that. Fondled my foot once and it took me a bit to realize that it should have been impossible because I was laying stretched out.

Once, I felt my arm dangling off the side of the bed, I was gently stroking the carpet and feeling its texture, I suddenly realized I was laying in the center of the bed and I would not have been able to reach the floor. My "arm" was hanging down "through" the mattress.

Hypnagogic sensations can be startling at times. I have heard huge, loud and even frightening sounds. I have seen flashes of light or color (thought someone was taking a picture using a flash bulb), or even what appear to be entities. I have smelled odors that I knew were not there, ie. baking oatmeal cookies.

You will find many that many people will provide you with alternate conclusions. Such as "the poke on your head was an astral entity waking you up" etc. I'm not saying they would be wrong, just saying you will need to further investigate. Push on and explore. Sounds like you are making great progress.

It's like I'm keeping myself company! I don't mind me at all.

Well, that's where I believe a few people here are.

And from there it depends on what their head is in...

Not sure it is "cynical" to not blindly follow what is written. Actually sounds pretty practical. There is a great problem in our modern society today. Too many people are finding their "truth" from lies. Research and personal exploration helps to weed out the cr@p. Too many people are too lazy to think for themselves. I find many of the posts here in ASTRAL PULSE to be akin to reading sci-fi/fantasy. I find humor and interesting ideas but very little of what I would consider truth.

LOL. The "moon matrix". It's called "regolith".

One word/idea at a time. Easy does it for these mush headed Earthlings. Someone has the code though....

I'm glad you followed me here. This was a thread started by me about children and their supposed projections. You are responding to me here from another thread and I am glad of that. I had hoped for someone to post something here that was topical though.

My children ARE nurtured to have higher insight. I DO encourage them to proceed beyond the veil. "Training" is not necessary and is probably the worst thing you could do. You are not a parent, apparently, or you would know that. Children grow into their own. No amount of AP training will get them there. It is of their own accord. I was simply stating here that I was helping them keep the door open. Giving them ideas to build on.

You say I don't "grasp" what you are saying. That may be because you are obviously not a native English speaker or your argument would make sense. Either use spell check and think about what you are saying first or don't say anything at all. If you are not a native English speaker then will try to decode your tangential approach. I will not waste my time anymore though.

If a child is projecting, you cannot observe this. Period. It is not "observable phenomena". If they tell you something which sounds like they did, that is SUBJECTIVE. They cannot present it "factually" because there is no evidence other than their report, which is "subjective". Doesn't count, that is not "objective". I will not argue about this linguistic dilemma because you obviously don't understand. Study philosophy or go to college and take a class or two.

There is ONLY objective truth. The rest is subjective. As for as the rest, I don't require any "belief" of what YOU say. And, you are right it "doesn't change a thing".

I apologize for not understanding what you are saying. You make no sense logically and I can't even form a realistic argument against what you are saying because it does not hold to rational debate.

Thanks for reading my post. Would have been nice to see an appropriate response though. 

No, it is not like riding a bike. Ten years ago I might have thought that. This physical reality can get ever so distracting. Attention can spread in so many directions. The Will can be left weakened and vulnerable. Intention drifts.

The last time I rode a bike I wound up with a sore butt. Don't remember the seat being that uncomfortable. It was sort of a negative experience but I will ride the bike again soon.
