yes OBE, but not very high in the astral
One of my friends said he had a white flash too, but it was no OBE, he only dreamed!
That makes sense. OBE and dreams are closely related.
The close relation between the two sometimes makes me wonder how difficult it is to interpret one from the other. I won't be a charlatan and pretend that I've had any of the relatively advanced experiences as I've read about here. Perhaps if I make progress I'll find a more definite distinction between the two. I've had countless strange experiences, but none that I would consider OBE, but definitely altered states of consciousness.
I don't know what you had, Shadow, but my advice is to keep trying and see if anything more conclusive develops. Good luck.

I couldn´t agree more! OBE is not a dream anymore!
Dreaming is probably the easiest way to get to the astral body but when I get to it I stop dreaming becouse I start functioning with my REAL astral body...not as much as I would like to, though.
For me, the key to jump from a dream to an OBE is a two step thing, not saying it´s a rule, but it´s how it has gone all the times):
First I realize in the middle of an ordinary dream that I´m dreaming(why I do that in the middle of a dream is a mistery..."just happens") and automatically the dream becomes amazingly vivid (supose It´s called here a lucid dream)
At this point I feel "loaded",It´s an incredible feel but I´ve never stayed in that state(I suppose you could do so) for more than the time it takes to think of my "second body" waiting to be used..I can´t help but jump to my "astral body" at that point!
That´s exactly the point when my dream stops and the dream scenario vanishes, and transites to the "vibrations" and the pull-out feel.I can clearly feel my second body pull out from my fisical body!!! (sometimes the sansation is so weird that I get scared and "wake up"screaming[V] (I repeat, I´m not dreaming anymore!)The feelings and sensations after the vibrations(in the few ocasions I haven´t "waked up" by the pull-out shock))are hard to describe,(haven´t got much further then anyway...) it´s me but not me,"I´m" functional(I can take decisions)...every thing seems easy and clear ...I can "see" around ,somehow,and recognize the place where"I´m": but I have never moved out of my room!!See, I´m not an expert OBEr[xx(]But I can tell you one thing:It feels good!I find my fisical body very relaxed and my mind very calm afterwards.Sure,much better than sex!Recomended![:)]
One night while trying to project i started feeling like i was acctually floating [:)]. But alal i seen was black,then i tried alittle harder and floated faster and i did more visualization.That made the feeling stronger.then out of no were i seen a BIG white flash that made me jump out of my bed lol. so what was that all about guys? was i starting to AP or what? and any advise?
