I believe this was my first ever OBE last night

Hi folks,

I had one of the most incredible experiences ever, i believe it was defintely an OBE.

25 mins before i went to bed i ate some french peppered cheese with some bread and also a pack of cheese and onion crisps and then i brushed my teeth and and drank a glass and half of water and then went to the toilet. I do eat and drink on most nights.

Then i went to bed at around 3:45am and i lyed on my back and i said to myself that i would like to have an out of body experience. Then i closed my eyes and just thinked about my toes and see if can get a tingle, because sometimes when my feet are cold when i am in bed, i get a kind of warmth or coldness going over my feet which has a tingly feeling, and i sometimes get the feeling that i have touched with something in thin air that makes me jump. Sometimes i get a little scared, anyway nothing is happening after a few moments, so i said to myself ‘oh whatever i will just roll on my side and try to leave my body in any sleeping position that i want’. Then i thought about how maybe listening to my clock tick and really try to listen to each tick and mix that with my breathing may get me relaxed and set for an OBE. Then after a while i got sick of doing that, then i was shifiting and turing trying to get to sleep, and i then deicded to put my hand near my heart and i said ‘Sir if you can hear me take me to the path of illumination’. I said this as i am very much in to secret societys like, i love reading about the illuminati and the freemasons. Anyway with the illuminati there is a lot of info out there about the ‘Path of Illumination’ and i was reading about the freemasons before i went to bed, anyway so i said that to myself and then i tried again for an OBE on my back. I then just could not be bothered after a few mins, so i just tried to sleep. The last time i looked at my clock it was about 4:35am and then i slept and had a few dreams all kinds of dreams to do about things that have been going on while i have been in the waking world.

I do not know exactly when this happend, this was really strange, i had what i believe is an OBE, but i do not know if it was when i woke up and tried it or if i was in a dream and tried it. I will explain.

I am in my bed now this feels real completely, not like a dream this is while it was happening. I am on my back it is dark, as i remember, this may not be word perfect but i believe had astral vision and was saying to myself 1 -8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 2 -8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1- 3 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 4 -8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1- 5 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1- and so on until i get up to 8 and then i say 87654321.

Now during all those numbers i believe i did go up and down through the numbers 1-8 but i can’t be so sure on that. I am also not sure exactly how i was breathing. I think i was breathing in and out on alternate numbers or i think just breathing normally and not depending on the number. As i was doing it, i was thinking to myself that this makes one great OBE method. Anyway lets go back to the numbers, when i get at the end close to No 8, i get a little twitch in my legs and that gets my fear running because i think somebody may be in the room or more like my worst scariest animal is in the room and that scares me. So i then say to myself i cannot be bothered with all this anymore, but then i say ‘no just do it’ and while all this is happening my teeth i shaking, you know like when your really cold after you get out of a swimming pool, well my legs were cold and my teeth shaking and all my body was tingling and i can feel the vibrations my body is like elctricity all the time electryfying then i said to myself ‘go on, all the way’ and so i tried to bring my self up and it was hard and then it happened and i felt a pushing feeling on my chest and then i kept on going and as i did this i was looking over my shoulder because i wanted to see my physical body if it is really there and see if this was really an OBE. I could not see anything as of yet but i kept on going and i got up to the position of sitting in my bed and it felt strange as i am like half in halfout it’s like sitting in a kanoye. Then i got right out and was sitting on my bed out of my body with my feet on the carpet outside my bed and i got up and walked to my door. As i did this i turned round and i did not seem too aware as i could not see my body in my bed. But as i got to the door i said i am going to walk right through my door and i placed my hands on the door and tried to push to go through it and i could not do it.

Now lets go back to when i was pushing myself out of my body it was dark then it was getting lighter, i sleep with my curtains open i could see the light starting to come through my windows as i was getting out of my body, now as i was walking towards my door i could see the light getting brighter, when i say light i mean the light of the sun peering through my windows, but it was getting more and more day from the weather, but it seemed so fast it happend in like 1 mins as compared to the hour in the waking world. Now i was not that aware over all this while i was out of my body, i was not thinking about the light but i could just see this. I of course have been aware of it as i have reviewed the experience in my mind throughout the day and now when i am wrting all this up. But when i got up i remembered the experience pretty perfectly.

Anyway please i must get back to the door, i now realised i cannot go through the door so i turned back round and i started walking towards my bed and i could see something laying there which seemed brown and when i cam closer up it was my body. Then a part of me said ‘remember what you have read on getting to close to your body while you are out, you get sucked back in’ but i still wanted to go ahead and get closer and i did but then my body started to slowly disappear and then in a blink of an eye it was gone and i just got back onto my bed and it seemed that i slipped back into a body that was not there, and then i don’t remeber anymore except that i had many other dreams. But as i was walking towards my bed i could see outside through my windows which is close to my bed and i could see that it was bright and sunny.

But what i don’t get is that, people say that we do not remeber our OBE’s very well especially if it is one from a dream. Or if you are lucid and come back to your body and then go into sleep paralysis and then try to have an OBE. But aparently it has been known throughout many books that we seperate every night but we are not aware of this happening and that’s why it is so hard to recall it.

But how am i able to recall it so perfectly?

Also how did this happen?

what was this, did i really have an OBE?

The strangest part of all this is the fact that when i got out of bed it felt to me that my OBE is on a pre determined line, that everything i do has been written up before hand and that i am aware on a tiny scale and that the event is happening, but i am only allowed to see a part of it. The reason i say this is that when i get to my door and i could not walk through it, i just turned around and headed near to my bed. But why did i not try to fly up and go through my ceiling, why was i not aware of this?

Why can’t i use more options in the experience?

why did i just walk straight back to my bed even though i wanted to see my body lying there?

Because the body disaperared does that mean it was not a real OBE, but one made up of the dreaming mind?

But then if it was not a real OBE, how did i remember it so well. better than any dream, or lucid dream, even though it was a small OBE, how did i remember it in so much detail?

As it is known that you remember concious OBE’s alot better than non-concioius ones, ie from a dream. So how did i remember it so well?

The pre determined pattern feeling is the same i get in a lucid dream, what does this mean?

please help me anyone.

I have felt the OBE feelings before but i feel this was my first OBE, i believe it was a concious OBE, but feel that it came from a dream, so how do i work that one out?

I also am not sure because, i had set my alarm for 11:30 am on my radio clock and 11:55am on my alarm clock with ringing bell, i do remeber waking up and turning off the ringing bell and then falling back to sleep again. and then waking up at 2:00pm and falling back to sleep agian and waking up again at 5:35pm. That’s late i know i was asleep for 12-13.5 hours so i am not sure when exaclty the OBE happend or the other dreams happend, as when i wake up i do not usually remember my dreams because i always fall back asleep again and then i recall my dreams as i finally wake up or through the day.

I also don’t have a dream diary as i just remember my best dreams in my mind, i only write down the best experiences like this one.

What are your views on this?

Please help i am so very grateful

Hi Honeyjigga.
You certainly have a lot going on here. I have an idea of what happened. You had an OBE followed by and combined with a lucid dream still being out of your body with bits of dream pieces integrated. You started out as OBE (congratulations!) and somewhere between the time you turned around to look at your body and when you got to the door you were projected into a lucid dream.
The reason you remember this so well is because for you this is such a highly unusual experience and you were also very diligent in your desire to remember the experience. This is rare but possible.

I have some questions for you:

  1. You mentioned sleeping for 12 to 13.5 hours, is that normal for you? If not, why did you sleep for so long?
  2. Did you happen to write down any of the other dreams you had and were there any significance in those particular dreams to you?
  3. What phase was the Moon in during this experience?

Try and go back to the pages you were reading about the freemasons and decifer if there is any relationship there to your OBE. Also look at what you did that day prior to settling down. That is all i can think of for now, i hope this helps.
High Wishes and Fly Well

Hi Prairedog,

Thank you for the reply, I don’t understand how you mean after i got out of the body it turned into a lucid dream. I kind of believe that i was in a normal dream which brought me back to my pyhsical body and then i may or may of not been in sleep paralysis but then got out of my body and walked to my door and could not go through it, so i turned round and saw my body and then when back into it, is that a possibility?

But what do you mean from exactly which point did it turn into a lucid dream, as you said on my way back to my body it became a lucid dream, but it still does not mean it turned into a lucid dream, because there are other instances where in an obe you can’t seem to go anywhere so you return to the pyhsical, so that could of been it, please explain in more detail?

Also i enjoy reading about the illuminati and the freemasons because i have noticed that those occult signs are very similar to what has been tied with out of body experince symbols and stuff, and i also kind of like how these world bankers are freemasons and they say some of them became part of the illuminati, and as it is a secret society i kind of think how lucid dreaming and obes were perhaps part of these societys espcially the illuminati for other ways of exploration. Well thats just a thought and all these things interest me as for me they tie into LD and OBE, and this is what makes me read about them.

I don’t know what phase the moon was in, does this make much of a difference? by the way i was born on the 13th at the time of 13:13 does that mean anything to the out of body world and lucid dream world?

Also 12 hours sleep is normal for me, but i have been going over that time perieod quite lately, and i have felt a little depressed with things so that could be the reason for sleeping in so much. But today as i am writing this i woke up early, i used to sleep early many months ago, i am very on and off kind of guy, as i sleep early for a few months and then sleep late for another few months and i keep alternating but i really need to get back into good sleeping habits.

By the time you got to the door, you were lucid dreaming. When you try and touch and object with an OBE, your hands will usually go right through it. If you are lucid dreaming the objects feel more real and solid. The way you described stepping out of your body and with the vibrations it sounds like you started out as an OBE. Somehow at some point your subconscious mind created a lucid dream for you maybe when you looked over at your body.
The time of birth is highly significant at least in my opinion. 13 13 13 is pretty awesome.
The phase of the Moon on Sunday would have been waxing after new moon and before first quarter(if that is when this happened to you) and that means you are in the beginning phases of this learning process. You will expect more OBEs if that is the case.
If there is something that you relate strongly to lucid dreaming and OBE that you like to read then it is of course a very good idea to continue studying that material.
Expect More Good Things

Hi Prairiedog,

Thank you for answering, i did not have the OBE on Sunday, it was last Wednesday or i think Thursday i will have to check my dates, but with that day does it coinicde with a sepcial moon schedule, also i was born on the 13th of December at 13:13 in the afternoon. Well obvoisuly because of the 24 hour time. but you say that is pretty awesome, does that time and in combination with the moon schedule help in anyway with LD and OBE?

Also my brother was born on the 14th of December, i do not know the exact time he was born at.

Wednesday or Thursday would have still been before first quarter which indicates new projects and new beginnings, even more so than last Sunday so that is even better.
The sequence of 13s i just thought was interesting enough to be awesome. It may have something to do with OBE and LDs but i do not know for sure. If you are interested in the numbers aspect of it i suggest you visit astrology-numerology.com or something like that for help.
Your very welcome by the way and best to you,
PD
