Last night i was relaxing for a long time and then i used that method that one of the members posted, its when you imagine yourself falling in a deep dark hole and then after a little while grab onto a rope and pull yourself out..well anyways i was imagining that and after a while i could see light instead of dark when i closed my eyes and my body was intense..my heart was beating really fast and i just felt like i was in a scary/intense situation..but then my mom came in to wake me up so i didn't get there...are these signs of aping?

Sounds like the start of it to me! A word of advice... do not go further without being sure you can get over your fears. Read read read! I thought I wasn't afraid of anything, then I started to OBE

well i didn't get scared but my heart just started to beat fast..

There are subconscious dreams which occur just before the separation from the body. They can seem almost as real as physical experiences. With astral projection itself it is hard to tell. You could end up in the same room, in another room, or in a completely different area from your house.

Rapid heartbeats are sometimes associated with the separation in astral projection.

ok cool..for some reason when i try to do the same thing the next night i can't do it at all..i think i need to try to AP every other night or like 3 times a week cuz my brain gets tired or something
