Hey there, my names Andrew and I'm 16.
Although I'm young, I've been interested in the 'unexplained' and astral projection since I can remember.
When I first started learning things I was very much into energy manipulation and started from the basic chi/psionics perspective this at the time is all I knew about, people with any knowledge of energy manipulation would know all about the simple 'chi balls'. So I practiced that and making things hotter/colder showing my friends also(who were pretty shocked I could make them feel energy remotely) infact, I taught one of them a few little tricks and such.
Obviously this is just begginer things that I just so happened to find, but that was around 3 years ago. (Don't think I wasn't at all curious and slightly frightened because I was tbh, I just was always going back to learn more however much fear I felt of the unknown)
I stopped for a while, unknowing what to do now.
A year later, I was researching even more and found out about ASTRAL PROJECTION.
This is what I was so very interested in! And still am! Its mad, I spend hours and hours each day just reading experiences and tutorials... I tryed to ap then but ended up lucid dreaming that I was having on obe (which can infact work perfectly for astral projection) <--- to those that want to ap but can only achieve lucid dreams.
So yeh about a year ago I lucid dreamt that I was about to have an obe. (My surroundings at the time were strangely enough in a school, and I was laying on a desk face down) Remeber I was lucid dreaming this!.. I wasn't actually led down on a school desk or in a school for that matter. OMG, just realised something amazing but will tell you guys later.
Carrying on.. I felt like I was floating but I got scared... Very scared and felt myself 'jolt' right back to my body and woke.
This was years ago, ever since I have just been researching and researching because I actually have feared being in the astral world and what I would see, this is where I ask for your help. I am fearfull. I don't want to be but I am.. I want to master ap but I feel I can't due to fear.
I could EASILY get to the point where I'm slipping my astral body out of my physical one at bed time but I just simply don't and now I want to change this!
Many thanks, sorry for the long read I just needed to get everything out of me!
Andrew.
EDIT! The reason why I am absolutely shocked is because recently I have gotten a job at a school.. As an IT apprentice. Earlier I was on about a lucid dream I had at a school.. IT WAS THIS school. It was this exact office I sit at everyday. I was dreaming about having an obe in it, a year ago! And I have worked here for 2 months but its only just clicked
You don't have to believe me but this is all absurd to me at the moment, I honestly can't explain how shocked I am. Yet excited I am, the room is even in the same layout as I remember in the dream.
Welcome to the Pulse 8-)
prescience is cool
:NoY:
There aren't really any tricks to overcoming that fear. It's a really intense unknown that you're studying and practicing. The only real solution is to just "man-up" and take the plunge.
Welcome to the Pulse.
If you were lucid dreaming, you were already astral projecting. They're the same thing. Does that help with your fear at all?
seriously bluremi, that's a brilliant insight. i didn't even think about that.
i have had lots of LD's that have been to places i have never been and then couple months later im there and i do the same thing i did in the dream. it reaky but fun! you get used to it...
