For last few days I have been trying to do OBE, with the method I found on http://research.obe4u.com/ (http://research.obe4u.com/).
Last night, I set my alarm clock for 6 am and shuffled deck of cards, pick one without looking at it and placed it face up on the windowsill. I also turned my mobile phone off (powered down), I do it every night.
About 10 min after 3 am I woke up and noticed that my mobile phone was on and the screen was all white nothing on it, it was frozen so I couldn't turn it off the normal way I had to pull the battery off. I went back to bed and slept till morning, didn't get any chance for OBE... In the morning I checked the card and it was 3 of diamond.
Strange that the card was 3, I woke up about 3 and the phone turned itself on about that time. I remember from emily rose film that the 3 is the number when evil mocks the good.

I'd actually go a bit further than that, and I'd suggest that the point that you woke up at "3am" was actually a projection. You might not have been actually awake... more aptly called a "false awakening". To me, one thing that suggests it is the malfunctioning electronics... this tends to happen frequently while non-physicla.
I wouldn't look too deeply in to the association you're making with the number 3 though. :)

This is true. I once had woke up from a very brief lucid dream and brought my arm up to check my watch. I remember seeing that it stopped working and feeling annoyed that I had to get a new battery. I slumped back in bed and then woke up later with my watch working perfectly fine.....
False awakenings are very strange.
Numbers are always intriguing tho.
We can make a lot of associations from numbers to events etc.
It doesn't always have a link tho.
I don't think it has any evil connection, tho I've heard the story that like 3:33am would be the devil's hour etc.
Theses are stories tho, your subconscious associate that time in your brain with it and it becomes a time where you are extremely aware.
You know like when you walk outside at night and suddenly your ears dress up on your head like a dog cause you heard a little sound lol,
or you just thought about something scary so you are scared. Same goes for that, you associate it with fear and when that time arrive you think about it subconsciously.
Some kind of shadow form hallucination. Or some kind of hypnagogic hallucination.
You can change your subconscious to forget about it tho if you go deep inside and tell it to ignore it.
Sometimes you can just tell your brain "I don't know" to help you stop wondering.
To me life is like a math exam, if I don't know the answer to the question I tell myself: -I don't know, I'll go back to it later.
Going through furniture you using to help you get out of bed is kinda trippy too.
Thanks guys for your input. It might be that all this was just a dream with false awakening and as you say "malfunctioning electronics" indicates it. But there is one more thing I forgot to mention, I went to the toilet before going back to bed and my mom said in the morning that she heard me.
All these reminds me of Holographic Universe book by Michael Talbot where he refers to something he calls "synchronicity" among many other different things he writes about. There seem to be some kind of invisible connection, where our brain is a kind of antenna.
Anyway, I am still trying to "phase out" each night but although I remember quite clearly between 2-3 dreams / night I cannot seem to make it happen for the reason unknown. 2 years back it was a piece of cake when I first tried it, for the first week I tried it it nearly always happened I could try, I didn't do it but at least I had a chance.
cheers guys
I'll also relay this experience...
I woke in the middle of the night, around 2am - 3am, from a very active and amazing Projection.
I reached for my journal, wrote down keywords so I would remember the rest of it... then turned over and went back to sleep.
I woke up in the morning and checked my journal only to find NOTHING written in it... the experience of waking up and writing down my projection WAS a projection, a false awakening.
I had simply shifted from the astral awareness experience, to a dream awareness experience in which I was in my bedroom. I thought I was awake, but I wasn't.
It's also experiences like this which have caused me to question the objectivity of what people call the "RTZ".
if i remember it right, #3 is roots stem from the meaning of multiplicity. Creative power; growth. anyway, it's kinda creep me out :) nice experience at least.
