I have taken up astral projection after falling away from it for a time -- biggest mistake ever. It's hard trying to get the hang of it again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/badmood.gif) Well, "again" might be misleading. I haven't had a full projection, rather I've had partial ones where my spirit was disjointed from my body. I could look around even though my eyes were closed and it was dark in the room.

Now that I have taken it up again and am staying cosistent, something strange happens ever once in a while. As I begin to feel the light/heavy sensations and vertigo, I'll hear my name called. Or I'll hear some strange speech I don't understand; whether this is a language I'm not familiar with or just gibberish I don't know. It's all Greek to me. Often, however, I'll hear my name followed by the gibberish, or my name in the middle of the gibberish, so I suspect it's actually a language. Whoever or whatever it is, it is speaking directly to me; I'm not merely overhearing a conversation.

What, or who, is this? What is going on? Is this a spirit guide or something else?

Two ways to see it, some will suggest they're completely separate, I prefer to think they're interchangable and basically the same phenomenon. The first is that part of that state of mind involves auditory hallucinations, and most people hear their name called, among other things, as well as 'random' vocalizations - people report singing, 'gibberish', ghostly humming or wailing, as well as other sounds like gunshots, popping, bells; I imagine anything is possible. I heard an elephant once.

The other view is that as your mind opens, you're also opening yourself to a torrent of psychic information at first - the two most 'loud' streams being sight and sound. The physical brain, unable to handle that information properly - it requires a non-physical level of consciousness to properly separate and interpret those streams, and that's something you get a handle on once you successfully begin to navigate those states, quite naturally - jumbles it up together and you hear, see, and sometimes smell, taste, and feel tactile sensations that are basically just elements of the psychic field that exists throughout the world - and presumably the rest of the universe as well at a higher level; those sensations, as I hear it, defy explanation or reason. Not there yet personally.

Reconciling the two views is not difficult, and in my opinion is the more appropriate approach - we are both physical, psychic, and spiritual beings, and all of those parts play a role in everything we experience.

For now, don't put a lot of stock into those sensations, they're distractions. Let them happen, pass, and move on - later, they'll be more distinct and you'll be able to understand them, and then they will be of value. For now, observe objectively, but don't get distracted or you'll postpone the experience of leaving fully.

peace

The world is complicated - that which makes it up is elegantly simplistic, but infinitely versatile.
