I've got two questions for you guys, and hopefully someone's got some advice.
A problem I run into occassionally is that directly after separation, I'll be in my astral body, able to move freely about the room, but my vision is locked in the direction I was facing before exit. If I'm facing my closet, that's all I can look at - if I was lying down, I'm looking at the floor. As you can imagine, this makes it rather difficult to not only enjoy my OBEs, but to get anything accomplished. I've tried using awareness "sitting up" motions, or otherwise "turning my head" but it hasn't worked so far. Anyone have any thoughts?
My second question is related to the above. The last time this happened, I for some reason thought "Well maybe if I raise some energy to my head, I'll be able to move it better." I'm not sure why I thought it would work, but regardless, while out of body, I brought some energy up to my "head," and the entire motion just hurt. It felt like anywhere I brought the energy was on fire.
I vaguely remember the same thing happening in the past when I've tried to raise energy while in the astral. Has anyone had similar problems? Thanks
Paul
