i've had some similar experiences and the responses i got back from here suggested that i was just waking up into part astral/dream environment. no one really knows what's going on when this happens. i was never hurt in any way but i have been pulled on at least ten times. it seems whoever is doing it has a feet fettish because they won't leave mine alone. next time it happens try to stay awake as long as possible and just remain calm. stay there for as long as you can and see what happens.
do you have your astral sight when this is happening you could always take a peek if someone is really pulling you or maybe its your own body pulling itself out with your conscious?
ive never projected before, how do i know if im using astral sight?
(typical) stages of obe usually are you feel energy rush through your body first when doing body awareness then after that happens you may here static noise for split second (this means you generated your body double and are half in the astral half in the physical) you may at this point see through your closed eyelids or may see after you seperate completely. Personally if you start feeling a certain body part freeing and the other parts are stuck try either to do body awareness on that part that is stuck (ie imagine that part running energy externally) you can also try rope technique as well thats pretty strong to help you seperate.
Every night when i go to sleep i have some pretty good vibrations happen, but a few nights ago i felt as if someone or something was pulling my arm, as if i was being pulled all around my room by someone, but i knew i was still in my bed. I tried to stop the feeling because i dont like trying to project at night because i dont wanna turn a corner and find a few negs that wanna kill me or hurt me or something. Also, a few times i remember waking up feeling as if i was on my stomach or back, and when i wake up im actualy laying on my side. Also once when i went camping i woke up once to see that my head was where my feet should be and my feet was where my head should be, then i opened my eyes thinking, whats goin on? then i just fell back asleep.
