Shape Shifting

[benrachor]

I'm just trying to get some feedback on the arts of shape-shifting and/or astral travel as different forms.  

I have traveled as a small bird in the past or sometimes an owl.  I used to have pet birds (parakeets, canaries, finches) and have studied their characteristics and movements.  In my shape-shifting exercises I would pretend to "be" the bird; example, having claws, beak, wings, ect...during my projections I would fly, not just fly but use my wings to fly.  When I stop to rest or land on something  I could feel my claws instead of feet.


Any comments or experiences?

I had this experience once. Which started as a lucid dream where I was hanging upside down from a suspension bridge over a beautiful valley. A bird with bright blue and white plumage appeared. It  looked at me for a while and then flew right into my face. At this point I felt vibrations as in an OBE we seemed to merge and fly off. I was now seeing through the birds eyes. Eventually we landed in some town and I was a person again. I explored the town for a bit and then it ended. It definitely felt like a major spiritual experience and I had a feeling of elation for days after. What it all meant though, I don't know.

Nearly forgot this one. APed from a sleep paralysis state and got grabbed  by what I've since found out is called a hitchhiker. it didn't do or say anything but it had an iron grip around my midsection and I couldn't loosen it. It didn't phase me at the time, I just visualised myself morphing into a bird made of flames (A bit like the spaceship on Battle of the Planets!) and flew away from it. Like I say, it didn't phase me at the time but the whole experience freaked me out for a while afterwards.

Quoted From Robert Bruce's astral dynamics.  

OBE Hitchhikers

a rare type of OBE problem that affects approximately 1 in 200 projectors at some time in their life .....

....After the exit you become aware that some being is holding on to you from behind. You often see a pair of arms encircling and holding on to you. This being may be silent or may speak and make threats or threatening sounds....

...You will often see a rough looking male face with glaring eyes...

....The consensus among projectors is that these hitchhikers are attracted to fear...


Robert goes on to say.

...Shape shifting can also be used (as one method of getting away from them)

Can you shapeshift into a object , Eg. A chainsaw

[Lockianhound]

Don't see why not . If you can visualise you can probably become it.
