Finally... my first astral projection!

ElectromagneticMan · June 09, 2011, 10:46:24

I'm dieing to tell fellow astral projectors so I have now joined this forum!

First I was interested in lucid dreaming and I have been enjoying that so much for a long time. But there has been that difficult skill I have been trying to do for more than 6 months and finally this morning I had a dream... I did the holding nose reality check and became lucid, but shortly after becoming lucid for some reason everything went black for a while. My conciousness then came back to my physical body and out of nowhere my hand started pulsing/vibrating, soon after my whole body was in huge waves of vibrations... and what interested me a lot was the amazing sounds i heard, my ears felt like they closed off from any other sounds in our world and i started hearing low vibrations and lots of static like a tv!

soon after i could open my eyes (astral eyes) and move my head up, i then floated up out of my physical... i knew not to stay in the room so i flew through a wall. unfortunately someone was making noise in my house so i think thats what brought me back to my body. i can't believe i have finally done it. also, when i woke up my face was like tingly hot but not discomfortable hot, like i wasnt sweating or anything, is that normal?

i do have a question too. visually things wern't that vivid i think maybe because i was trying to stay calm the whole time mixed with so much excitement but i don't know, things kind of seemed more darker and mystical? do i have to train my astral travels to be more vivid like i had to with my lucid dreams?

firstly, congratulations!

when you start projecting, it's like waking up in the morning. you're a little groggy at first and your vision might not be so great, but it gets better the longer you're awake. also, you're already really familiar with waking up in the morning so your senses return pretty quickly. alternatively, you're not very familiar with projection, so it will take a little more time before you get your wits about you completely.

keep going!

Hallo ElectromagneticMan and welcome

The first OBE is always very exciting. You did well to stay calm because excitement and strong emotion Can prematurely end a projection.
Blurry vision is actually a rather common problem, even for experienced projectors. I'm not really sure why vision varies so much between crystal clear sometimes to as bad as nearly blind.

Anyways you might try an affirmation next time. The two most popular (= effective) affirmations for astral sight are
a) "Clarity Now !"and
b) "Vision Now!"
Or make up your affirmation(s) and see what works.

Regards

Grey

Things get distorted when you're crossing over into this new plane of existence. Congratulations on your first projection! all of mine start the same way you described yours. You want to let your surroundings get distorted because you'll enter an astral world created by your mind and imagination. Its extremely fun, trust me. I usually just start flying up. sometimes I can see the city below me, but usually I just drift into another place with vivid colors and mystic surroundings. Keep going! anytime you feel these vibrations and hear the noises, you can get out with faith.

Dimensional shift. It happens when you become lucid, exiting the body, or entering the body. Or leaving/entering the RTZ or other planes.

Static... that is making me think your were in SP. Becoming lucid then going into SP is common. And strong vibrations in SP are also common.

Vision usually sucks in your first couple OBEs. After practicing and meditating it gets better.

I'm glad you want to practice APing. There really is a lot out there, more than anyone can imagine.

yeah good idea, that's what i use for my dream, for my dreams i use:
"I am lucid, the world is vivid".

I had a play around once in a dream saying "vividness level 1" then "vividness level 2"

as i kept going everything became so beautiful it was breathetaking!

thanks for the explanations human eraser. some questions, what is RTZ?

what's SP?

and i'm guessing AP is astral projection yes? sorry im new to this site thanks

btw how often do you think people can have projections... like can some people just do it whenever they like because they are so advanced?

Hi, RTZ is Real Time Zone. Basically Out of Bodying to the physical world around you. Not to the astral as such.
SP is Sleep Paralysis. Where you wake up to a concious state, still in body but cannot move, as youre still paralysed. (Your body gets paralysed everytime you fall asleep so that you dont physically act out your dreams).

I get the impression that even the most expert projectors cant do it at will. Or they'll go through periods where they just can't do it.

Finally... my first astral projection!
