I think I need some help..

To force your astral self out of your physical body conciously takes energy.  The first time your girlfriend was helping you.  She may have been aiding you, or the 'excitement' of the act built up energies you aren't building up now.  It sounds like a real OOBE.

Try reading through some of the OOBE guides. There are various techniques out there, and you will have to experiment until you find one that works best for you.

Hey BitDude welcome to the forums.

I'd have to agree with Rastus that it might have been excitement that made it work so quickly for you at first, but no reason why you shouldn't be able to get that back.  And the more you freak out about it, the more it will slip away from you, so take a deep breath, keep a postive attitude and then read through all these links..[]

P.S. You're lucky to have a partner that is on the same wavelength as youself, it can only be helpful. [^]

So, you're saying I need to work on building up energy?
Thanks, by the way, I never thought of this. =P

I wrote my experience from last night down in my dream journal: http://www.livejournal.com/users/aarondreams/

It sounds like you are on the right track!

Don't be afraid to open you physical eyes, your experimenting.  I have better luck eyes open, but thats just me.  If you are looking at something, and it suddenly looks different (or you look right through it), then you are seeing it from your 3rd eye perspective.  I can always see into the Astral before I project.

Hello, I'm new here. I'm a belgian member. Have you ever tried this to generate an OOBE ? Put a Fluorite stone under your pillow, at the place where your head lays. Or place on your third eye chakra. I tried it and had very strong experiences.
Try it and tell your experiences plz.

Okay, I'll keep that in mind.
I always try to keep my eyes closed..

Sometimes, though, they seem to open by themselves.. Same with other parts of my body. When I'm really concentrating, my fingers and legs seem to start moving up by themselves. My physical ones, I think..

[Rastus]

I am of the opion that is a good thing.  Maybe you Astral self is trying to leave, but it's dragging your body behind it? Keep trying and eventually you will be able to project and not have the body follow.

Hey again BitDude!

I have found opening your eyes will cause you to abort a projection attempt, or at least makes you start all over again.  My eyelids have fluttered open as well, I'm not sure what causes it, perhaps energy flowing through, regardless the best thing to do is try to ignore it.

Floating limbs, been there done that!! Wait until you find everything else floating out and you're standing on your head.[]  This is just a lack of energy I believe, try and focus some energy on the part that is stuck.  Sometimes I get back in, then start all over, it works more often than not.

Good luck!

Well, let's see now..

The very first time I tried astral projection, I was lying in my bed, using the technique my girlfriend have taught me.
"Lie on your back, relax your body, clear your thoughts and focus on how good it would feel to rise and float above your body."
I'm not sure why I was so succesful that night, but it felt like in less than 30 seconds, I had begun to rise out of my body.

Of course, the high-pitched riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinging noise scared me and I fell back into my body.
After that, I was too riled-up to try again for the night.

The next night, an for several nights after that, I tried the same technique, only to feel the vibrations begin, but they always fade.
This was all about five or six weeks ago.
Lately, I haven't even been getting the vibrations, or even getting a vibe most the time.

I figure my problem is lack of concentration, as it's hard to keep my mind clear at times and my body is itchy a lot..

Any suggestions? :\
