Can antibiotics supress OBEs?

[dbmathis]

Hello All,

My wife works in a daycare and unfortunately my daughter who also stays at the daycare brought home a nasty virus for me to catch .

It may be the antibiotics I am taking, but I have not been able to reach the vibrational state for a week now. Three weeks prior to writing this I had 4 out of body experiences.

Two nights ago I repeated these two affirmations until I fell asleep, "My consciousness will now transition to my nonphysical body" and "The very act of falling asleep will cause my consciousness to transition to my nonphysical body and I will have total control, crystal clarity and awareness". I repeated this as long as I could before drifting off.

I went straight into dreaming with no virbational state that I could remember. I don't remember the exact details but I recieved a signal in my dream on this night. One of my customers at work was calling me on the phone in my dream telling me that they have stopped using the Hemi-Sync technology and had switched to something else. My subconscious was trying to make me realize that I was in a dream and that it was time to transition, however I didn't recognize it.

Hemi-Sync has nothing to do with job recruiting (which is the software that my company creates and sells). I would never receive a call from a customer at work about Hemi-Sync, which is a technology designed to synchonize a person's left and right brain hemispheres so that they can reach an altered state of awareness such as OBEs.

The fact the I recieved this signal in my dream is very promising and I am glad I recognized it afterward. This means that my brain has started reprogramming itself to achieve this new goal and shifting my conscious to my nonphysical forms. Next time I think I might be ready and be able to pull off a dream transition.

I am just not sure why I am not able to reach the vibrational state in the last week, could this be the antibiotics?

Best Regards

David

Antibiotics don't affect your perceptual abilities (they're not psychoactive, is what I'm trying to say) so they should have no effect on your abililty to OBE.  I've projected with antibiotics before, so I know they don't.
But if you're gauging your success on the abillity to achieve vibrations that may be what the problem is- vibrations are not something you do to project, they are something you perceive when you are transitioning from one state to another.  Think of your brain going from one frequency to another, think of your perceptual organ (or point of view, or whatever you call it) changing phase/vibration/speed from what the brain is showing it to what 'something/where else' is showing it.  Like when you change radio stations, and get that snow in-between.
Vibrations, astral noise, etc. are symptoms of perceptual shift, and may be traumatic in nature (that is, your conscious awareness is going 'What?....Wait a minute, let me adjust.... Ok, we're there..." and you perceive that as a vibration.  Once you start having less traumatic exits (or you've taught yourself to handle it), your brain is going now "oh, we're going out, ok, let me switch- click- ok, you're done'' so fast that you don't even notice the transition.  And then weird stuff can happen- you're projected but not moved away yet, start bilocating, or simply think you're awake and all of a sudden start floating.
So basically, you can continue to project without feeling vibrations, and this seems inevitable- it seems to happen to all who project for a long long time.  Maybe the energy body evolves as we do, or you just get used to it.
These days I only get vibrations when I get back into my body (on purpose) but never on the exit.

Ok, that's interesting.

So what sort of other cues should I be looking for that will let me know when it's time to separate or that I am already separated? Maybe you are right and I am not feeling the vibrations anymore. I have only been trying to project for about 3 weeks so all I have to go on is what I have read and the 4 previous successful OBEs in the last 3 weeks.

I highly doubt I have become used to the vibrations as I have only experienced then 4 times in my adult life.

Besides vibrations, there can be a feeling of 'floatiness', or the feeling you have when you're dizzy (those can be vibrations, but of a 'more synched' frequency), you can see through your eyelids, or start to have hypnagogic visions, or hear noises or even voices.  This doesn't necessarily mean you've projected, but are an indication it's time to start trying an exit technique or a loosening technique.
Sometimes the knowledge that 'you're not normal' is enough, but practice and familiarity with the liminal state is what helps the most when looking for signs of readiness.

Thank you CF, you have been a great help.

You're welcome.
