Some strange experiences I've had...

[Lichking]

Hello, I've joined as I've had some unusual experiences recently.

Firstly, I was projecting when I saw a being, red-skinned, although I don't remember much of it, and it slashed out at me with claws and teeth. I awoke disturbed and checked my body, on my arm I found two parallel scratch marks, about an inch long. I also had two scabbed dots on the back of my hand (I recall vaguely it had a snake-like head). Any ideas on what happened, as I've seen this being several times although non-hostile, should I confront it or is it risky?

Also, while in semi-concious projection, I believe I achieved telekinises. It's not much, but I've opened doors(literally) and haven't tested this much further, should I?

Thanks for your time,

The lich

There is a theory that reptilian aliens long ago infiltrated society and can shapeshift into human form. They apparently also occupy the astral plane. I keep an open mind on this subject. If we accept that the astral plane is real, and that other alien lifeforms may exist, then of course this is theoretically possible, and could explain your encounter with a "snake-like" being.
As for opening doors, I'd carry on with your experiments if I were you. It would take a lot of energy to influence the physical while in the astral state, but if you're getting results you should pursue it I think.

Just remembered, me and my mate were projecting waaay back, and randomly, he fell straight of his chair, like the entire chair tipped backwards, just as I lost contact with him, could this be linked to the door incident, also, I encountered several of those snake things, like 20 odd, killed them all in cold blood, don't really feel, guilty, also my mate said I look slightly demonic when i'm projecting, so if anyone has been propelled out of sleep by something relatively evil looking, probably me, I do that sometimes.

What the...

Odd question: do you have any feathers while OOB, or do you have any other connection to birds?
