2nd OBE 31/2 yrs apart

[Neoinferno]

I had my first OBE 26 September 2010 I wrote the whole experience down on this forum. I have tried multiple times since then to Astral project again and it did not happen. Then life got in the way and I completely stopped trying. I recently within the last three weeks started trying astral projection again and this is what happened.

My second OBE happened on 30, March 2014 at 3:35AM. I started trying to Astral Project around three weeks prior. I was doing energy work, keeping my dream journal and I also got a reiki massage from a known reiki master. I don't know if this helped at all, but I did have my next OBE six days later. I also felt energy movement while the massage was going on. So here is what happened.

I fell asleep listening to a 7hz theta binaural beat from youtube from my IPOD (U-tubes Awesome). I also repeated, "I will have an out of body experience" about 20x. I slipped in and out of sleeping and wakeful state multiple times. I then awoke and looked at the time on my IPOD to see how long it had been playing. The player read 42 minutes at this point I cut the IPOD off and rolled over to my right side and fell asleep. I then awoke to immediate feelings of vibrations and ringing. I remember telling myself, "What does this feel like? What does this sound like." Best way I can describe vibrations is when your body is cold and your shivering the times that by 10 minus being cold. These vibrations were very intense, it was not subtle in anyway. I was actually scared until I realized what was happening. The ringing sound was the exact same sound as a tibetan 6th chakra singing bowl only faster. While I was having the vibrations and ringing I tried to separate by imagining myself floating forward I felt myself start to separate and I got scared. I don't know why, but I did and I was slowly pulled back into my physical body and the vibration stopped. I said, "No." The vibrations and ringing immediately started up again and I imagined myself floating up and I started to separate again. I saw myself moving away from my body into the ceiling. I thought of space and the next thing I know I am staring at the moon while floating. This lasted about two seconds and I then thought about my physical body. I am stupid and I don't know why I thought of my body. I appeared above my physical body and was slowly lowered into it. It wasn't a snap and I was back in my physical body like my first OBE. As I was being lowered into my physical body I heard a voice that said, " Myname Your mother." I couldn't make out anything else. It felt like it was a male family member, I don't know how I know it, but it did. I called my mom she was fine. So I have no clue what it was about.

During my first OBE I did not experience vibrations or ringing. I was also snapped back into my body and not slowly pulled or lowered back in. I saw in black and white with a little bit of brown in my first OBE. This OBE I saw color. Both OBE's happened while waking so I will now only try them when I am waking. I do love the fact that, I now know what vibrations feel like and what the ringing sounds like. I will be more prepared next time.

I haven't checked out your first OBE but your description of this one, with vibes and the ear roar is pretty classic. Congratulations! You've had a taste of both now.

Regular, physical life does seem to take precedence, whether we want it to or not; sometimes years at a time.

The vibrations are a great phenomenon to experience. Early on they can be so violent and frightening. Later they smooth out as a perfect signpost of where we are in the exit process. Sadly, later many of us lose them altogether, maybe a subtle warmth at times. I haven't felt them for 3-4 years now; kind of miss them.

So where do you want to go next?

I am really interested in my past lives. So that is a very big goal for me. Also I would like to actually see if I can witness past events, but the biggest thing I want to do is explore the astral plane and soak u as much knowledge as possible.

Well, there are many sources of information here in the Stickies, the bold, blue sections. There are great books to read but all this is free. The Pulse has been my singular best resource for the past 6 years; there's lots to explore here!
