Astral Projection Forum

Regarding these light patterns mentioned by him, is indeed pretty common to see orbs, rays of light and whatnot. I see it myself sometimes while meditating. I really relate to you about the "tremble-ish" phenomenon, when the arms are numb, yet you feel as if they're slightly trembling, I presume this could be a form of vibration on its own way, but a weak one. This quite happens to me. I only use binaural beats to deepen my relaxation, but some people report significant progress, so it's worth trying. It all depends on which methods you're working with. Keep with your routine for now, if it doesn't show results after a while, try other technique. Don't worry too much about reaching the vibration stage, the intensity varies from one person to another, many people don't even get vibrations at all.

Welcome! It's so nice when new folks come along.

I'd appreciate if you could give some info on how much do you know about it, if you have tried yet and so on. So we can get you started!

Sorry it took me long to reply, for some reason I was unable to post the answer from my cellphone, maybe it's a bug or something. I suppose you're talking about this : The “Open Mouth” Exit Initiator The first method is the ‘open mouth exit’ and it was discovered by a forum poster named tsunaH. In sleep paralysis 99% of the time even if everything below your neck is paralyzed you can still move your eyes and mouth. To do this method simply open your mouth and take a few slow deep breaths. Be sure not to breathe too hard or you’ll break the paralysis. By doing this you’ll feel yourself start to separate starting at your head. This method is a very reliable way to get the exit process kick started. It’s actually more of an ‘exit initiator’ than a full exit method because a lot of times it will get you half way out and then you need to switch to another exit method to complete the separation. However a lot of times once you start the separation using open mouth breathing, you’ll

Ohh someone the same age as me (⁰▿⁰) I agree with Praveen,usually people report that places change, it could be either a slight to drastic change. It varies from one person to another. I also heard places you like will be more colorful and kind of prettified, and places you don't like will be uglier. Someone mentioned here in this forum, if I'm not mistaken. The way you described could be projection, to make sure, if next time you think about your friend and still doesn't work, "go on foot" to see him, it could be good idea to try during the day so he's awake doing something and later you can tell him what you saw and confirm if you got out. I'm really envious of you, I still haven't been able to project. I won't give up but it's a little frustrating sometimes. Keep up the good work :blush:

A slap? I have never experienced nothing like that, so I'm not sure if I can answer that but, what did happened to me when I was close to projecting, was that falling sensation you have sometimes when falling asleep. I also felt like floating and instinctively knew I was close, but out of nowhere that sensation came, it scared the living hell out of me, just like you I was listening to binaural beats. Well, in the Hypnagogic state ( the one we are while trying to project ) usually weird things will happen, hallucinations and other visual, auditory, and physical stimuli. The reason as to why sometimes these things happen when close to projecting it's a little unclear. But I guess since the body doesn't us to get separated at the slightest sign of "danger" it will snap you back. My theory is that, while we're fully immersed into projecting we will not consciously pay attention to our surroundings anymore,but our body will,say for instance some noise was made near or in whereve

I'm really sorry for the late response, I've been studying like crazy for my finals these past few days. Hm, I don't think it's you, well, probably not, at least. But it could be that you were able to leave the body. Let's say for an example, you were floating few inches above your body, usually if you're scared before you project, once you get out of your body, you'll be 10 times more scared.Even sometimes when people are not afraid to project, once they get out they'll suddenly get frightened, that is because your body **really** doesn't want you to go anywhere. So in your case if you got out, it could be your mind messing up with you, otherwise I believe that it might be some entity targeting you, since you said dogs would bark frantically around you. Animals can sense paranormal activity very well, especially dogs and cats, so having a lot of dogs acting weird around you for no reason at all is really eerie. I Hope you stopped having scary experiences at this point.
