Hi @Lumaza

It's always a pleasure hearing from you. Thank you, I will continue my journey, although it feels slower. I'm still grateful for the little experiences I still have. I think becoming a passive observer is going to be a life long journey for me

It's interesting how when I am in the NP I have this knowing, that makes sense to me there but not so much here? I will ask why they are there next time..and hopefully have enough time to get a response.

Hi everyone,

It's been a minute. Lots of life happened but I had a few experiences. Recently, I've had trouble holding on to the experiences. I'll gain awareness through a dream, and it will kinda change into a different level of astral awareness, and then I lose everything. I have tried touching, spinning, licking, grounding. But the experience just gets lost and I either wake up or I lose awareness.

Last night, I gained awareness in a dream, just by pretty much setting intentions everyday before bed. Then the dream turned into very heightened awareness. I was walking a path in this pink/peach land with a girl and it felt like I was truly there. I asked her, "I wonder why I'm guiding you when I have never been here myself." I have no idea why I said this but once I did everything broke and I was back in bed. I kept my eyes closed in hopes i could go back but I needed to pee and that was that lol.

The other day something similar happened, I gained awareness in a dream. I stopped the dream, I licked the floor I think and then I believe I thought that I was drooling on that floor but it felt so real I thought it was real life so I woke my physical body up to clean my mouth up and I was not drooling at all! lol

I have tried continuing the dream and just trying to "lucid dream" but same thing happens where I can't keep it going for more than a few seconds :-/ it's actually harder then if I stop the dream and it morphs into an astral awareness or something.

Anywho it's nice to talk to you all again. Lots of life lately so I'm sorry I haven't been around! But I continue to dream and attempt to travel in the NP. <3

Today I wasn't feeling well and ended up sleeping a lot more. So as I went to sleep I set an intention and did a cycle of feeling my senses.

I was in a dream and my grandmother who passed away who I'm certain is my soulmate was talking to me on the phone. God it was so real but I told her, you know you're not really here grandma you have passed. She says I know. I told her I love her and to watch over me and to ask God to watch over me. But the conversation—wow I haven't heard her voice in so long.

I ended up flying somewhere and then everything went dark and I felt my self phasing from my body. I was slipping out from my feet, and watching the little swirlies and stuff. I end up in a dark place with these spooky dementor looking things chasing me, but I don't have control over my body it's like a force moving me. So the whole time I had no fear and was just saying I only have love. And I kept repeating that. And so one of them caught onto me, and he turned into a man. I think I tried to hug him lol. He told me not to do that, and then tossed me over the edge of the building or whatever we were in.

I ended up going back to the click space until I got to a place with little cats and dogs, and I could speak with them. I think I pet some animals. I can't remember what we spoke about but one of the dogs was really shocked lol! Couldn't stay long, I feel this place fading.

I'm back to this dark click space like falling again. I say over and over I want to go to the moon. I envision the moon and after sometime I start moving upwards, and am able to move my body a little, but I can't see much. I can feel a card in my hand that I broke in half. I didn't make it to the moon. I made it back to my bed LOL.

What an interesting experience
Thanks for listening,
B.

@Frostytraveler all very true. Thank you. I am working on just being.

2/26/25:
So this morning I did a little bit of a different method. I went to bed early last night and woke up around 2:30am. During this time, I was in bed doing cycles of feeling all of my senses. I forget what this method was called. I think it's for LDing I read on here. I prematurely wake in a dream the first time, and wake up too much in the PR if that makes sense, but then the second time, I'm able to exit.

Yay! Okay so I slip through my feet at first and I'm doing my best to stay present and then I sit up. I stand up and walking is difficult but not as difficult as before. I can see but not fully. I feel my dresser at the end of my bed that helps me get to my window. Everything feels so real! I have never gone through my window and I just want to get out of my room lol. I get to my window, and honestly I can't even tell if this is the NPR. I pinch myself, and I can't feel it. I try to put my thumb through my hand and I can't. Ugh. Oh well. So I open my window, even though I know I don't technically need to. And there's still the screen there but I tell myself it doesn't matter! So I push myself through it all.

I end up flying towards this complex/building which is unlike mine. I see some people in the pool and I think how exciting I'd love to go talk to them and so I do. But as soon as I do I get pulled back!

Lame! Haha

But I think this is the furthest I got out of my room in a long time. Which is exciting. YAY! Now to make the experience last longer. Also to get over my intellectual mind. I could hear all of you as I try to "walk" and "open the window". Yet I still do it. lol more meditation to come.

Thanks everyone!

@Xanth hi

Ah, this is something I am working on. I feel as I continue to go within in my PR, I will get better at doing this in the NPR.

Thank you so much for this advice. I feel like I will really have to work on my awareness in a more present way. This will allow my intuition to flow.

Thank you <3

Today is actually a dream I would like your thoughts on. I was in a car and then someone attempted to shoot me through the seat in front of me. It doesn't work, and I noticed that to my left there's an eagle in the sky.

The dream shifts about this eagle. I run to it, I notice it falling almost and morphing, and losing parts of itself. Once it got to the ground it was pure energy and embodied the energy of a horse. I laid down next to it and I felt the energy of the horse come into me.

Really crazy feeling. I woke up after.

Thanks everyone!
B

Thanks everyone for your wonderful feedback. It seems my progress is slow but it's still there! Little by little, I continue to have experiences. I believe everything in divine timing.

@Lumaza, I suppose my question would be, when I am "falling" should I let it be until I stop? Maybe my attempt to do too much during this is what brought me back.

Thank you,
B.

2/9/25:

Good Morning! I just wanted to log my attempt from this morning. I woke up lying on my stomach which is a common projection position for me. Earlier when I woke up I thought, next time I wake up, I'll try again. So I set that intention.

Next, I feel myself flipping over, and then falling through the floor. I can't see anything and I don't try to open my eyes too much because of the proximity. Instead, I do something funny, I taste something; and it's sweet! Idk what I taste, but it's sweet. I did attempt to move around to find balance, but I couldn't; I just kept "falling". Then I ended back in the physical. I stayed still for a while hoping I could maybe leave again. But nada. Interesting though, it felt like I ate a strip of something sweet.

Little victories?

Thanks for listening!

Ah. This was a restless night. Sometimes I make the awful mistake of setting an intention and to have an OBE before going to bed along with a meditation. For me, this is the worst thing to do because—forget sleep! The next 3 or 4 hours I am trying to fall asleep, then waking up either with my eyes closed, or to a noise in my ears, every time I'm almost falling asleep. So basically I'm almost projecting every time I fall asleep. I'm like being woken up every time I'm falling asleep. But now, it's been happening for hours, and either my dog starts snoring, moving, or my mind won't shut up. I beg to my guides please just let me fall asleeeep, I have work in the morning LOL.

So after about 4 hours of this, I finally escape! Haha okay. Yay. I must admit it's hard to have a clear mind for this experience, and again the timeline is also a bit jumbled. I'll do my best to relay it.

I believe the first exit, I ended up going through that tunnel I typically fall through. I fall through fast and this time there's beautiful lights. This is a place I go through before I enter my next place, so I set an intention of receiving a healing. I understand there are healing guides and masters in the astral so I wanted to potentially meet them. I get taken to a place, and to be honest I'm not sure if things started to mix a little. At first I see these intergalactic being heads, who I assumed were going to work on me, and their faces were blurry. But then as I either rubbed my hands or really tried to stay present their faces morphed and so did the place. They turned into some kind of men who seemed upset I was there, there was trash on the floor, and I felt like I should not be there. I was floating above them which also seemed Like an intrusion on their place. So I snapped back. I'm not sure if I created them, because I was falling asleep or what really happened. I think they were kind of bald? Maybe.

Next I was back in my body, and thought I was awake but really I was able to slip out. I ended up floating around my room, went through my ceiling, I tasted things. I don't remember what I tasted but I did it so I could be more present because it was really hard to stay focused here. I remember thinking wow, I'm doing much better floating with my energy body also I worked on going through the ceiling, and felt like every layer. So that was fun.

I think that was all of my experience. Then I finally woke up and then went to sleep.

Thanks for listening!

Hello Everyone,

Came to log my recent experience and really try to remember and understand it. This was a bit chaotic so bare with me.

1/19/2025

I woke up in the morning and went back to sleep, setting the intention to have an OBE. So I wake up and I feel like I can slip out. I think of a motion in my head, something I was thinking about & it helps me project. At first it is difficult, I can't tell what's the physical or not. Feels like I'm moving my real body, but I try to tell myself I'm not. There were so many exits I don't really remember the timeline here.
I think I snapped back to my body and then fully slipped out again. Through my feet. Then I was falling or flying, I think I see a sign of some sort, I can't remember it now. I think I end up back in my room, floating, remembering that this might be a test to figure out how to move in the NP. So I try, I think I spin a bit, go through the floor, a wall, but I have very little control. It's like a force is moving me. At some point I think my fingers get stuck somewhere and I can feel the pain, and I thought this was strange.. I'm like how can I feel pain here unless... my physical body is experiencing pain. Okay I snap back again and my fingers were uncomfortable—but in hindsight that was maybe a FA. Because I was not awake the way I am now writing to you. I slip out the same way again. This time everything is more clear, better.

Okay so now I'm flying over this place, looks like a creepy building with washing machines? There's one woman doing her laundry. She has short hair and she appears African American. I talk to her but I thought I was going to leave, until I stop myself and think maybe I'm supposed to talk to her. She appeared sad, confused, and I think she was talking to herself. This laundry room or building felt eerie, sad.

I try to stay, I ask her how she is doing.. I'm not sure we have a really long conversation.. I don't remember what she tells me but after a little bit I get pulled back.

That's the last thing I remember. I can't remember the other exits, I think I fell asleep after then woke up.

Interesting experience. Thanks for listening.

Since my last experience, I have been having trouble lucid dreaming/gaining awareness. Instead of gaining a sense of awareness that I am dreaming, I'll wake up in my dream and then wake up again in the physical. That's happened a few times, or I just dream.

That being said, I still had a very interesting dream this morning.

I was a young man and I was taking my brother and I away from a place that started to get bombed/attacked. My understanding was we were some type of refugees. We ran to our safe house and checked to see if our father was alive. He was! And so I wake up. But I'm in another dream, this time I'm myself, telling my best friend that I had a past life dream and I'm explaining the dream to her over a salad. Then I wake up again in the physical. Ah I overslept.

Haha, Happy New Year, Everyone!
-B

@Lumaza thank you again for all of your wonderful information and resources. As for phasing, I hope that one day I could attain this! I do try sometimes, but have yet to succeed. Phasing was the first methods I read about on here. Overtime, I hope I can be one of the ones who achieve this! Thank you <3

@Tak hi! It's good to be back. Almost* at will haha. A lot of the time I set an intention of LD / AP and will have a very REAL dream. Typically unpleasant too. Like this morning, I was practicing and unfortunately just woke from a very unpleasant, hyper realistic, dream awareness. Sometimes I feel like my subconscious tries to let me know I'm in a LD by making me uncomfortable! Lol

But if I give it a couple days I'm sure I'll be back to more successful attempts.

TYSM for the guidance. Setting that type of intention and including that I'll be there long, sounds like a perfect idea. I am starting to understand the power that holds with intentions. The other night I said I wanted to wake up early without my alarm, and so I did! Really miraculous. You, EV, and many others are right, in the NPR I need to start behaving as such. Sometimes I don't recognize my energy body LOL she forgets everything she learns here in the PR. Perhaps I must work on my intentions for this as well. You are a 100% right about the mindfulness, I am a work in progress.

@EscapeVelocity! It's so good to hear from you. Thank you for all of your time and guidance over this time, along with everyone else's. I am truly so grateful to be able to come here to all of my teachers. What a place.

You are right on the dot, my OOB self is a bit rogue sometimes and forgets all of her teachings XD I may include some rewiring of her in my intentions. I am patient, I can move lightly as energy, or something a long these lines, so it may carry over. You're right, those were great tests and I failed haha. I think that's probably why I end up in my room so often with this heavy globby self. My guides trying to teach me how to move in the NPR. Time and time again, I show them I cannot. But I'm certain, next time, I will. No door or window will stop me also, I will stay in my LD next time. I have been trying so hard for one outcome, I completely dodged the other.

Thank you!
-B

I'm wondering if anyone has this issue with WBTB! Or any guidance. This morning, and others I set the intention of waking up earlier, at about 4:30am. Then I set the same intentions to OBE or have an LD. I go used the restroom when I wake up, but I have a hard time falling asleep. When I finally do, I'm awakened in an almost perfect state to project—but not quite. So this keeps happening over and over. I fall asleep, then wake up. Unable to project, but almost! LOL annoying because I'm not really getting sleep or achieving what I want out of this rest.

Thanks everyone!
-B

@Lumaza, thank you for the wonderful feedback. I ask myself the same thing, why not continue the LD? I read somewhere that if I were to stop my LD, I could immediately enter astral awareness. This has worked for me every time. Its also this impatience I have when I'm in the NP. Like my energy body is always onto the next best thing.

I try to get away from my physical body, I do. But man, it's sometimes impossible! Blind, heavy, with very little control of myself I move to a window or door but alas both locked in my last experiences LOL. Interesting.

You're right, I hope that I find that balance. To be honest I've come a long way. I'm grateful to have any experience at all. Now, to try and be patient / mindful with them!


@tides2dust thank you for your feedback as well! Its good to know I'm not the only drunk soul stumbling around LOL

The family constellation I went to was very powerful. It was with 11 other women. What I keep learning is that we are in fact one, and all have a soul path we are meant to follow. Unfortunately, this means we cannot fix or alter other people's soul paths. Even for their benefit. I learned from every woman there, and am very grateful for the experience.

Its nice to meet you as well, my name is Bianna and I'm in San Diego, California

Oh! and in October, I had a little experience.

I was on vacation with my partner. We slept, I woke up and slipped out in the morning. I walked into the living room, and then I started to "OM". It felt like a continuous "OOOOMMMMM" Which was cool. Then I went back to my body.


A few questions I have are:
1. How do I make my experiences longer?
2. How do I make moving easier when I slip out, so I don't feel like a heavy glob :'D
3. How do I stay more present/mindful? I feel like my spirit is constantly so impatient, when the physical me is just happy to be in the NP!

Thanks for listening along <3 I missed you all!
B.

12/08/2024

Note: On this day, I went to a woman who read my Akashik records, and completed a family constellation for me. It was incredibly healing. <3 I was exhausted when I came home and took a nap and then just a little later went back to sleep, and the OBE happened on maybe hour 4 of sleep.

This was probably my longest experience so far and some details I may not have correctly.
I woke up and thought I felt my partner moving and thought, "oh darn, that ruined my chances of projecting". Actually, I was able to sit right up and get out of bed. Everything felt very real and HEAVY. I dragged myself to my window, while propping myself up from the bed. I attempted to open the window to go through it, and a reality check, both failed. (I believe I pushed my thumb through my palm, and it didn't work) Gosh everything feels so real!

There's a little lapse in my memory at this point, because I do remember projecting at least 3x this day. I just can't remember the order. Anyways now I'm back in the void or click and I am falling downwards. During this I see an equation of some sort. "nb+c". Swirls and other things in the blackness.

Now since I remember the window method not working, at some point, I went to my living room. Except it's not quite my living room, and my balcony has two screen doors with a little room in between. Then passed the screen doors is a beautiful pink, smoggy, EMPTY, city. It felt eerie, so I hesitated I admit. I decided to go back to my bedroom (also it is easier to walk now, I think I have projected maybe 3x now.) and my partner is awake! He is awake and IDK what we chat about but we end up sitting and eating ice cream sandwiches. The ice cream sandwich--also strange, in an "I" shape, like the cookies are horizontal and the ice cream, vertical. LOL. We had a good time, and then I woke up in the physical. I woke him up too and am like babe! I just had an OBE, and you were there and we ate ice cream sandwiches XD He didn't remember anything but was definitely excited for me.

Thanks for listening <3

Christmas Day 12/25/24

I wake up early, and decide to go back to bed. I set the intention of waking up in my dreams and AP.

& so it happens! My dreams, just to note, when I make this intention, are never the friendliest dreams.

Anyways, I realize I am having a dream, stop my dream, and am in my physical/half awake state. I attempt to slip out the first time and my arm gets stuck. I pushed too hard trying to project and my arm was in some strange position when I was in bed. Okay, I snap back to my body, but am able to slip out. This time I start pushing my self through my feet the way I have before, and I naturally flip over. Cool. Now, I am in a "click" or "void". Still not sure what this place is called, but it's just the darkness before I end up somewhere, and I think I saw a light purple swirl of some sort.

The darkness transitions to a place full of trees and sky. I'M FLYING. How fun is that?! What a beautiful gift. My vision, or this place is a little pixelated? I cannot feel the trees. But I did enjoy it so much. After a little bit of flying I think to myself, "Guides, whenever you feel is divinely right, I would love to meet you". Then I am back to my body  I could probably slip out again, but I'm sleeping on my hands, and they have gotten numb LOL.

Happy Holidays again to all that celebrate! <3

-B

Happy Holidays, everyone!

It has been a while. Sorry for my absence. Life had gotten ahead of me. I wanted to document my last few experiences and hear your opinions.

Today 12/27/2024 was my most recent OBE. Not much happened. I woke up earlier than my alarm and thought this is a perfect time to "attempt". So I made the intention of waking up in my dreams and astral projecting. What's been happening lately is I'll realize I'm in a dream super abruptly right at the very end and wake up in the physical! But I'm coming to realize I am not fully awake.

SO! I woke up this morning abruptly from realizing I was in a dream, and I was in the physical in that half awake state. I felt very much awake, but I thought, "why not try slipping out?" So I did. I slipped out, heavily and with some difficulty, and then I was on the floor. Kind of like, my entire body was contracted together. I crawled to my door, while propping myself up by the walls, and attempted to open the door. I couldn't see a thing. I kept thinking "vision" or something along those lines. The door knob was not a regular doorknob, and that was as far as I got. Back to my bed I went. Although this time, I think that I am awake, I try to project again and think it's too late. So I reach for something in my night-stand, and bah, then I actually wake up.  Well that was still interesting...

I have been having more of these exits and difficulty controlling my "body". Another time, I floated to the ceiling, and then to the other side of the room. I got so annoyed with the lack of control, I just ended up in my body. XD I swear, I have the most impatient spirit.

Hi EV!

Thank you again. I definitely have been thinking about these experiences a lot today as they have really caught me off guard. I admit today has been really difficult for me. I almost have a faint memory of a thought before bed last night during my meditation of what if I have a nightmare instead? Which turned into, if there is a lesson, then I'm okay with it.

About the owls, I heard the owl first during my walk, and I looked up, and saw it up on the pole near my apartment! Then I heard another hoo! And there was another owl on the next pole. They both flew away.

The next day I saw feathers on my walk.

Just little things like this make me feel like I'm getting a message of some sort?

-B.

9/25/24 04:00am-06:00am

Awareness level: Dream Awareness

Good Morning Everyone, or at least it is morning where I am. I wanted to document this experience here because I feel I need some guidance interpreting some of it. I must disclaim as I continue my OBE journey, I'm also exploring my spiritual journey, meditation, my angels, guides, everything. That being said, yesterday I found two feathers on my path walking my dog. I typically don't walk on this path. It was a grey feather and a black feather. I read that this can mean I am protected, I have change coming, but it will be good afterwards, OR an opportunity to clear karmic debt. The night before I hear and see two owls! Really rare for my part of the world. I read that owls
are messages to trust our intuition and tap into the deep well of wisdom residing within.

Anywho so those are some things I have seen recently in the physical. Now onto my experience this morning. I attempted to wake up at 4am, and then do a few cycles as one projector calls it, to induce a lucid dream. As usual it was still hard for me to fall asleep after this. Im too awake after! (But if you ask me to just sleep and wake up at 6am for work I can barely roll out of bed LOL) I'm honestly like a kid that's excited to go to summer camp anytime I wake up in the middle of the night to practice. And I don't mean consciously excited, but my subconscious! She doesn't want to rest. So I start doing the counting method I read the other night. "1 I'm dreaming, 2 I'm dreaming..." all the way to 100 three times (with losing count many times). I finally am tired enough to go to sleep after an hour.

I wake up in a normal dream state, there is someone from my high school and I stop him to chat, ask what he is doing now with his life. He starts to tell me and I'm like okay cool! I get this disorientation in the dream and apologize for it, I let him know sometimes this happens. (Maybe referring to my migraines, idk) but this does happen in dreams sometimes, where I get disoriented, dizzy almost. Anyways, he asks me for a photo, and then leaves. I'm like a photo?? Of me? And then I'm on my phone trying to figure this out. I'm looking in the mirror and then my hair starts to come out in clumps! My partner comes in and tries to help me. I wake up.

I've never had a dream where my hair was falling out, but this was horrible. I go back to sleep. Another dream.

This dream, someone who I'm not currently speaking to is there, and I'm next to a bed I'm meant to sleep in and it's covered in bugs. I'm not fearful of a lot of things, but looks like my mind has found two things that are definitely disturbing to me! So I'm asking why there are bugs? And then there are more. I wake up in the physical.

I go back to sleep again, and note, each time I return to sleep I set an intention I will wake up, become lucid, gain awareness. I repeat it many times.

I go back and it's the same dream as before! What is this hell? The bed full of bugs, this person I don't want to talk to, who is testing me and talking poorly about some people I love, and now there are more bugs. I wake up screaming because I felt a giant bug with wings jump on my back. I mean I felt, heard, everything.

I am still processing. Another very busy morning for me.

Also a note: I find I have more success with lucid dreams between the hours of 7am-9am, after I've had a good amount of rest.

Thanks for listening, B.

As always thank you everyone for your encouraging words, and support during my journey

EV! Your brain is so marvelous haha, I didn't even think of that, how that was my little sign I have gone off course. I will definitely try to just be, and enjoy where I am. I think it's also a life lesson. For me, I am always trying to move forward or rarely pausing in the same place for too long, so practicing mindfulness is something new to me. It applies even more so to my new adventures it seems. With all of your feedback, I do feel so much more progress. Like I mentioned, when I was going through that void the first time, I didn't give any time! So I went back to my body. It seems my energy body is even more impatient and eager than I am in the physical haha!

Frosty Traveler, thank you! I definitely keep a dream journal, a spiritual journal, and then writing my experiences here has been very helpful with everyone's feedback!
I can't wait to have more cumulative experiences. For now, I am still day dreaming about my last ones!

Tak, I am so happy to have found this platform as well. I feel like a broken record, but I just am so grateful for everyone's warmth and support. No need to feel embarrassed, friend! I should adjust my signature a bit, being from California we tend to feel like we are our own country sometimes LOL Just kidding! I do wish to visit Colombia some day. Thank you for this feedback! I will try to count or do math to help ground myself. I am also curious about your experience with eating a leaf! I think I may try that too! I definitely am keeping a few journals and do my best to document most things. It has been very helpful. I am eager to meet my guides, I may include it in my new personalized, daily affirmations/intentions.

Thanks Everyone!

- B From California

EV!

Thank you again for your insight! I was just reading Taks journal and your responses and analyzations. They're very helpful. I think my first time goin in, I truly didn't give it a chance. Eager to do more I suppose. This is recurrent for me, as when I was in what I believe is the void from a few posts ago, I too was too eager to go somewhere. I must learn to be patient and observant. The second time I went in today, I stayed a little longer, but my excitement to speak to others and focus on what city I was in may have been the wrong focus.

Next time what I will do differently:
- Stop and observe more, try to focus
— Also maybe use my senses a little more, touch what is around me, try to jump, anything to increase my consciousness there
- Ask what is my lesson here, if I find myself having a hard time

Thank you again <3

Most Recent update 09/22/2024:

Hi Everyone! Thank you all so much for engaging with me. I cannot stress enough, the gratitude I have for all of you. It has been such a wonderful experience finding this forum. Every day I feel closer and closer to my authentic self, and I wanted to thank you all for helping me get closer to where I would like to be.

I will start by sharing my experience, and at the end I will write a few notes. These are for my growth, and so I remember things as they were, so I will be very honest here.

This morning, I woke up around 6am and I was still quite sleepy, so I decided to go back to sleep and I set the intention of Lucid Dreaming. I thought, "I will Lucid Dream". So I did! I woke up in my dream, it was a strange one I can't quite remember, but I didn't have to do any reality checks, I just realized it was a dream immediately, and stopped the dream. I sat on the floor in my dream and it looked like green and white large checkers. I started to touch the floor, as many have said you should touch whatever you can, engage your senses, etc. So I stop the dream, and my intention is to AP, so the dream stops and I start flying through blackness. It's not entirely black, kind of like swirls of light around me. This time I'm a little more prepared, as I realize I might be going somewhere. So here I'd like to note I had two obe's, and with this first one, it is really hard for me to describe the place and creatures I was seeing—so please bear with me lol!
I'm not sure how I arrive, but I arrive from the blackness into this place. It is green, with perhaps a little town to my right which is very different from what I see on my left. On my left are these creatures in almost like a carnival setting. They were very big, almost mascot like, but they were not in any costumes. It's very hard for me to remember exactly what they look like, even harder to describe them. Anyways, hopefully with time, and writing these down, I will better remember. So I came up to this creature, I am not sure what he said, but I think he was blowing up a balloon or something fun like. I touched his face, and was so giggly, I thanked them and moved on. I walked to the middle of the grass-field where you could see a moon, and I thought, hmm this is perfect to set some intentions! (One thing to note, that little town or something that I saw earlier, is no longer there anymore.) So I am in this grass field , and I say, "I would love to meet my guide". I repeat myself a few times, and nothing happens so I figure it isn't the time, and then I set the intention of going to the moon. I think, I would like to go to the moon. And nothing happens. So I think, I should be able to fly! So with my mind I try very hard to fly, I float up a little, but that was it. (As I am writing this, I am thinking, this may not even be a moon I was seeing) So with my attempt to fly/float, I end up back to my body. Although it is not over yet! I wake up next to my partner and I tell him, I had an AP! But this was just a false awakening, I feel my leg shaking (not vibrating), and then I wake up again, this time in the physical.

It's still pretty early, I am quite tired, I set the intention of lucid dreaming, so it works again! "I will Lucid Dream" is the affirmation I used. I stop my dream, and I end up back at the same place it feels like. I somehow knew it was the same place. This time, I didn't go through any blackness to get there. I just got there immediately after stopping the dream. I ended up walking down a path, and to my left I see these very large creatures, more human like, but not at all, and very big. I walk passed them and I meet these three girls. I start to chat with them because honestly I am in awe that everyone can see me. I ask them where we are and they say the city name, and Quebec. I couldn't remember what they said was the city. I couldn't remember in the OBE. I kept asking them to repeat themselves, and I think I started to tell them about AP, and so they started running off. I followed them and got stuck in this area, almost behind a small building. I wasn't really supposed to be here it felt, and this man starts talking to me. He was friendly, and confirmed that I wasn't supposed to be back here but I won't get in any trouble. We start chatting and I ask again, where and when am I? He tells me the city again, but all I can recall or comprehend is Quebec! And he says 2030. He shows me his ID, I try to read the city, but I couldn't understand the card. I share that I am actually from 2024, and from California. After I started to share about myself and where I am from, and I am actually APing, I end up back to my body.

Notes:
- I find it easier to AP from and LD. Partly because I can just set an intention of LD, and go to sleep. I find it harder to get myself to fully relax when setting the intention to AP from a conscious state because I am too excited. I am still practicing though!
- It was difficult for me to fully remember everything after my experiences, which I was aware of when I was there. I set the intention in my OBE to remember this experience. I also had a hard time understanding remember when I was in the experience.
- During my first experience, I kept feeling my hair in my face.
- During the first experience, it was not so clear in the beginning, I thought, clarity now, and I think as time went on, it got a bit more clear. That being said, it still felt very..dream like? I hear others report their experiences as almost more real than the physical, so that is why I wanted to mention that piece.
- Also, in addition to my hair, I had this fear of talking with my mouth, like it would disturb my physical body. I think later it stopped, and I naturally started to speak. I think Tak said that if you try to hard to open your eyes/mouth you may actually do it with your physical. I think I did feel my physical body at some point.
- The second experience was easier to recall! Although I still had this difficulty with remembering the city name, or maybe I wasn't meant to.
- Another thing to note is I was not feeling well during the night, I have read that when you don't eat or have less carbs, you more easily project. I definitely didn't have anything in my tummy by the morning. Sorry for the TMI, but yeah, was not feeling well last night! But was able to have 2 back to back experiences.

So that's it! My first Astral Travel? I think so anyways. If you have any insight or thoughts, suggestions, etc. Please, I would love to hear it. I have very much enjoyed this community and engaging with all of you. It has been an absolute pleasure!

Hi AmongTheStarz, Welcome to The Pulse!

Nice progress! It always puts a smile on my face to see people achieving results. Great job! Your hard work and discipline are really paying off

When I experience The Void, it's three-dimensional, and I navigate it with my astral body. It's also possible to feel your physical body sleeping in bed while in this state (it's definitely weird to feel two bodies at once!). But focus solely on the astral body, and the physical one will fade away. And hey, it's pretty funny when your sleeping mask or earplugs get stuck! Just remove them, but don't try to "open your eyes" because your physical eyes might open instead. Remember, we're seeing through different senses now.

You're doing well by repeating your intention throughout the day - aim for at least four times, if possible. It might take some time to sink in, but trust me, it's worth it. It used to take me up to 15 days, but with practice, it now only takes two or three. Find an intention that truly resonates with your heart's desire, and you'll achieve it more easily because of the love you have for it.
Just remember to be patient and do everything with love.

Beautiful, Cali! Greetings from Argentina. Your English is fantastic, but if you ever need any advice in Spanish, count me in.

Hi Tak <3

Thank you so much for your kind words and advice. This community has showed me time and time again so much support and love.

I am having more progress! It makes me so so thrilled! I recently started to set alarms to do reality checks + affirmations that "I am more than my physical body, and now I am consciously having an out of body experience". But I am afraid you are totally right! They are not my own affirmations, and I am going to journal and figure out some which resonate for me personally. It was a good start though!

As I continue my meditation practice, even when I take a break because of work or life, I feel like I get even stronger coming back to it.

I may have to take your offer on learning Spanish! Your English is very good too!
I can offer to teach you some Russian! My family is from the Ukraine. Although we don't speak Ukrainian, I do speak Russian

As your first lesson, "Spasibo!" Which means thank you <3

Hi Barbora!

I'm sorry for the late reply, as I'm still getting used to how to use this forum! I feel like there are so many things that may impact the "vibrations". I feel mine typically in my legs. Today actually as I was coming back from an experience which I am about to document here, my leg again felt shaking/pulsing.

I love that you have a naughty nature, and are so open about it. Feels very freeing, and I am a big supporter of that for all women! I too have a naughty nature and wish my vibrations were that way haha what a gift!

Today I had a big experience, so thank you for your well wishes, and the same to you <3

PS I think the many exits were definitely there for your benefit, because as I understand with each one we get more and more experienced, and therefore, better! Cheers!
