Hi,
I found your forums when googling 'astral projection'. Please bear with me if I get the lingo wrong or I've posted in the wrong place. I'll try my best to keep this short but I've tried explaining my recent experiences to friends and family and sound like a crazy woman so I'm hoping some kind internet folk out there may understand or be able to help.
Many years ago I read about lucid dreams and astral projection (I think they were books by Robert Bruce and Robert Monroe, whatever popped up on Amazon). I tried techniques for a while out of curiousity to see if it was all real or hogwash and got nowhere. I have no religious/spiritual beliefs but remain open minded and subscribe to the opinion that science is yet to explain everything and 'I'll find out if there's something else to it all once I pop my clogs'.
A few months ago I began having the occasional 'lucid' dream. That's what I've called it, but may be wrong. They took place in my home and everything felt *real*. Unlike my usual dreams I could hear noises clearly, my stairs creaked as they would if I were physically on them, colours were bright and clear like in real life. I could vaguely choose my actions (default thing was to start flying around). At times I was simultaneously aware of both being by my front door as dream-me AND aware of physical-me lying in bed and starting to get a numb hand. It was bizarre, almost unexplainable to have my consciousness split.
