I was trying out this method called polyphasic sleeping once, and in about the fourth or fifth day in it, I would begin to experience vibration and lights and kind of a vertigo feeling in which the movement was really fast. I tried to move but couldnt, I did wake up though and got scared and immediately stopped this sleeping method because I thought something bad was going on with me.

Later on I found out it was about to be an obe experience. I also found out about lucid dreams which are also really cool.

So that would be my experience with astral travel..... I would like to try it again sometimes, although it scares me that there is a hospital about 2 blocks away from my house. All this scares me.

I've had a few OBEs before.

I remember the first one, which was the scariest, I was reading some rituals from a website, which I cannot remember at the moment, to clear your spiritual path from negative forces. Part of the ritual was to imagine 5 Arch-Angels, this were your guardians. Later that night, I meditated for an unknown amount of time and slowly fell into a deeper state until I reached an OBE. As someone said before, the gravity was all messed up. I was lying in my bed still and I could feel my body sinking into the mattress. After a while of trying to stand up 5 figures, very bright figures appeared before me. Instantly I stood up and I was back in my body... shaking.

I don't know if those were those "Arch-Angels" I called upon for the ritual, but they fit the description.

After that experiences I tried to duplicate the OBE, only to be successful 3 or 4 times more. I have to say, it's an amazing experience.
