Hearing Voices When Attempting Ap Options

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?

Thanks to both of you. As ever, you two give clear and thorough explanations. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumbsup.gif)

One interesting thing to note though, is that this voice speaks directly to me, and I hear it as clearly as someone speaking right in my ear. Another thing is if I ignore it, it talks a little longer, like one extra line, but it's hard to ignore someone speaking to me. When I start to concentrate or shift my focus, I lose it. I think I know why this is though; I'm just not in that "right" frame of mind anymore when I do that and sabotage my efforts by starting to "care" (for lack of a better term).

I was a bit hesitant to mention this before, but lately I've been using the Book of the Old Ones, a book that subscribes and relys heavily on the Cthulhu mythos of the Necronomicon. The book says that when using this system of magick, you'll become aware of shadows and beings following you around, which I have, and I've been having strange dreams, but I'm still not sure if these two developments are related.
