Flexing etheric arms

[WindGod]

I did a search on "etheric arms" and read some interesting stuff and thought I'd add a funny experience from a couple nights ago.

(note: no alcohol, drugs, or medicines, well rested, minimal/normal daily stress)
Went to bed early, practiced concentration/relaxation, then found myself partly sitting up, looking around the room, and then at my phantom arms.

If I tried to "lift" my arms the usual way by mussel reflex, they would become heavier the more I tried to lift, and just dropped, surprisingly feeling weight.

Then I quickly thought of moving the arms and they became weightless as I waved them outstretched in front of my head.

To experiment, I alternated between flexing, and using thought a few times, resulting in arms feeling heavy and then weightless.

As I was having fun with the thought control, I wiggled my fingers, then made them long and spidery, stretching across the room and even made them zigzag. Then noticed that my right hand was almost twice as large as the left. I was slightly confused because I didn't intend that the right hand become larger, then started wondering what the significance was, then I fell asleep.

I've done this before.  With effort, they become almost physical.  When I relax into the feeling, my arms start lifting of their own accord.

Tis weird, wacky and wonderful!  I still haven't got used to the sensation and enjoy it every time...!!!

Interesting to hear that from someone else, thanks.

Reading the AP forum has to be helping. Whenever I have the odd experience these days it makes more sense, and the anxiety or fear with that particular kind of SP experience seems to be gone.
