As a young boy, around the ages 7-11 years old I had these dreams. Dreams where I would feel my "spirit" lift out of my body and I would fly upwards towards the sky. I'd be above the clouds just relaxing and looking around and embracing the scenery. Then I would let gravity take over and start to free fall. Weird thing was, I would feel the wind. I would feel my stomach drop. I would feel gravity pulling me back. Another weird thing, I HATE roller coasters and free falling. But I actually enjoyed this. There were times when I went to bed HOPING to have this dream.. This... Out of the body experience. Once I was getting closer to the ground, I would appear, looking at my physical body as I watched my spiritual body fall through the roof, through the top bed on my bunk bed, and peacefully back down into my body. I would then wake up.
I've told my friends this year (2012) about it since we got on the topics of weird dreams. They all looked at me funny like, dude you're weird. Though I had a friend on Facebook who just wrote about her first astral projection experience and had me interested until I realized, is this what I was having as a kid? Is this what I looked forward to doing every night before bed? Free falling from the clouds above?
I think I would like to travel into this form again. Experience something. Fly around the world.
Whats stopping me?
Harmful entities. I'm scared crapless from the numerous stories I've heard after. Fire alarms going off in radical spurts while feeling a bad energy, then suddenly going away? Black figures sitting on the couch and chasing one around the house? This scared me, though I really really want to try this, yet again.
Hi and welcome to the Pulse.
This fear is self generated. You are basically in control and when experiencing these oob trips any thoughts you have become real actions. It takes.a bit of time understanding this and takes a bit more to master it. Have a read of the many topics on this site for more info. Theres a good selection on the FAQ here.
Any questions will be answered.
Nice one on the early days, Theres a few here that have experienced this too.
Mine started in the 1960's, I eventually did it to order, when the feeling was right.
Greetings ZHentz.
It might be comforting to know that Many people had OBEs as a child and never knew what they were. And that includes me btw. One positive aspect of those experiences is that you Do have a natural ability to go out of body. Now, as an adult, the next Big step would be to learn how to consciously induce OBEs with a deliberate induction method.
Sincerely :-)
