OK, before I begin, I want to give this disclaimer: The things I am about to discuss are from my own personal experiences and studies that I have done over the years. If you feel the need to call me crazy or ridicule my experiences, please don't as they will simply be ignored. I'm not on any drugs, and I don't even drink.
So, I want to ask, has anyone else has experienced Astral Projection or knows how to do it? I have been doing some research on Astral Projection, the state of being able to leave your physical body and explore the astral planes and dimensions, also known as Out of Body Experience, over the last few weeks. It sparked an interest in me after I was reading into some articles on The Zero Point Energy Field and space exploration using the energy found within the field.
Then I came across Astral Projection. It was intriguing to me because some of the symptoms for beginning the state of Astral Projection are symptoms that I have been feeling all my life. It is known to many as Sleep Paralysis, which is waking up consciously while your body is still asleep and being unable to move.
I've complained about this to anyone who would listen all my life. Basically, I would wake up and be able to see and hear everything as if I was wide awake, but not be able to move my body or even speak/make a sound. Breathing is often difficult during this phase as it feels like someone is sitting on your chest. It is a very frightening experience and also very hard to force your body to move. For me it usually last anywhere from 15 seconds to a few minutes.
Everyone that I have told says that I am really sleeping, but that I just think that I am awake. This is not the case. I know I am awake, just unable to move, because I see everything just as I am seeing this computer screen right now.
So, long story short, after reading into Astral Projection, I realized that my beliefs about really being awake were true, and that I was in the beginning stages of projecting or leaving my physical body. I've been trying to force myself into Sleep Paralysis for the last few nights, but it's hard to make it happen.
Well, I woke up this morning, and there I was, in Sleep Paralysis. I could clearly see everything around me, the ceiling fan above, the lounge chair next to the bed, daylight from the sky window. My initial response was excitement, because I am interested in everything that I have been reading, and I wanted to get out and explore.
Then all the symptoms from Astral Projection started to kick in. I could hear a vibrating hum in my right ear, could feel the extreme weight pressing against my chest making it hard to breath, I could hear the whispers. Everything that was around me seemed like it was vibrating, too. I didn't see any spirits or anything like that that others have claimed to see (I never do). But then my excitement turned to a feeling of overwhelming dread and then I started to panic and tried forcing myself awake like I usually do, but I couldn't. So I tried to calm myself and focus. I looked up at the ceiling fan, and remembering clearly the studies I have done to actually get out of my physical body, I tried the rock method, which is the method of rocking back and forth, building momentum to force yourself out. I could feel my inner self swaying, but then I noticed the tassels on the fan where starting to rock back and forth, as if I was influencing it. Even the fan blades started to move. That freaked me out and I started to panic again and forced myself to move.
I know that I was really awake because everything was in the exact same place once I made the transition and opened my physical eyes. It was the same as blinking.
Ok, I know all that sounds real crazy, go ahead and call me crazy now if you want. But I want to know, has anyone here ever conquered getting out of the body, or at least experienced Sleep Paralysis? I'm going to keep trying and hopefully I can stay in control and not freak out next time.
