a snake and a few spiders

[fredhedd]

i feel as though i can not be harmed and have had a few experiences to confirm this sorta.  it's still hard to not be a little disorienting when you can actually feel something that's not supposed to be able to harm you.

Hello everyone, this is my first time posting on the boards although I have been reading for a few weeks.

After soaking up a number of books over the last few weeks I have been experimenting with relaxation techniques. Just starting off really. Last night I had another of my creepy crawly experiences...

I was laid on my couch, fire on low, pair of headphones and a pink noise CD that I created, just to drown out any sounds around the house. Eventually I drifted off to sleep, only for a few minutes. Unfortunately when I opened my eyes I saw a 30cm circular bundle of wires/threads rotating & swirling by the ceiling. This would have been fine except that I hate spiders and mentally assumed it was one in a nest on the ceiling. That was enough to bring me back into full consciousness with a jolt of adrenalin and a thumping heart!

This has happened to me several times over the years, before knowing about anything OBE related. I hope it doesn't become a problem as I continue with my pre-OBE exercises. Also, it is always fuzzy when I see these things so lord only knows how realistic your creepy crawlies were Alpha!

Funny you should mention that, but it's so true.  This morning I projected, and although it was short, it was a little frightening.  I found myself in my usual starting out place: the big black void.  I heard horrible screams and real, creepy sounds.  I remember feeling this fear build up within me, but I told myself, "Just calm down....there's nothing to be afraid of."  I tried to shift my focus away from it and concentrate on getting some astral sight, and then I found myself in my hallway....noises gone.

Once we confront these fears and not let them control us, we progress further in this journey.  It just really sucks when you encounter scary things, because it usually catches you offguard and you almost pee yourself.

RB called these things the gaurdians of the treshold. Never did understand if these   critters are from our subconcious or have an independent existence. A couple nights ago I had the thought while leaving my body that I have not heard any weird noises while exiting. immmeadiatelly I was grabbed on the shoulder and yanked back-I think it was of a manifestation of my own thoughts.

Fredhedd,
I suppose its going to take alot more experiences like these,to finally really believe that we are invincible.they do give you an idea how deeply rooted our fears really are.

Hi dan99x,
welcome to this place,I dont think that you should have many problems with that.As long as you do not think its like some evil entity.Its like a test to see if you are ready to go on.Thats how I take it.Be brave!

Fear is like a plant(more like a tree for mehttp://www.astralpulse.com/forums/images/icon_Smile.gif" border=0>) if you starve it,eventually it will dry up and die,one little branch at a time.But unfortunetely it can be the other way around too.

Jeff,
Yes its always a big surprise.I guess that part is really what  makes your heart jump out of your chest.http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/images/icon_Smile_shock.gif" border=0>

Cant be sure what exactly they are,But I made the snake dissapear.So I lean more towards them being a part of our sub-concious.

Fell asleep on my couch.When I came too I was paralyzed and I had very clear astral sight.I could see a snake coming towards me.It wrapped around my hand.Looked like a pretty normal striped snake.

Than a few big hairy spiders started crawling right next to me.1 of them looked like it went underneath me.I could feel it against my skin,the snake and the spiders were all so real.

Yes it was scary and I started to get really hot.It felt like I was sweating.But I was dry as a bone when I got up.I just tried to remain calm.There was no pain or anything.The whole thing lasted about 20-30 secs.

Ive seen a spider before but never a true to life snake.Oh and I did make the snake dissapear for a few secs.By just imagining it gone.I think I just had some things that were bothering me today.What I do not know?If I made it dissapear it had to be from me right?

I think its good to have a scary experience once in awhile.The next time you are never quite as afraid.

Slowly you realize you really cannot be hurt.Even if everybody says you cant,dont worry about it.ETC..The only way to trully know and believe that is through experience.

The reason why maybe I was stuck.My arm was scrunched underneath me and I was in a twisted position.
