Let me add, that it seems to turn only when your eyes are moving. It you stare at it with no eye movement at all, then it does not spin....

And don't get "stuck", or "hypnotized", or something else....

As it has been mentioned in several posting and even in the online book of Robert, desorientation can happen in the astral, due to our mind that is trying to adapt a 360 degree vision back to our 2 eyes (180 degrees) vision. That and others leads us to think that our mind is deceiving us. Here I bring a graphic example of such a deceiving optical illusion. It looks from the picture as if some are spinning, but not the one you look at. NONE IS SPINNING, it is from our mind.... deceiving us.
