Hi
Recently, I have been trying to learn how to do astral projection. So the way I try to astral project is by waking up early in the morning and staying up for about 40 minutes to induce sleep paralysis. This helps me to keep my mind awake while my body sleeps. I can't attempt to do it any other time or try by starting in a trance during the day because the house is busy and I don't have much time to myself. I have been able to get out of my body, but haven't been able to get very far because of some problems I have encountered. I am pretty sure that I am actually doing it because of how much more real it seems that a dream and because of the feeling in the beginning where it feels like I'm floating upwards.
I have noticed in attempts where I get out of my body with my "eyes" closed and then open them up, I am able to get out but the room that I am in is very dark as if it were still night, although I know its very bright because its the morning. I've gotten out of my room once and ignored the darkness and walked around my house telling myself to stay conscious, but at some point I stopped and I lost control and it became a dream.
But if I attempt to get out of my body with my "eyes" open, the brightness in the room matches what I saw before in the physical, but then I get stuck in my body and I face the "threshold guardian." I've tried to ignore it and focus on climbing upwards out of my body, but it feels like something is wrapping its arms around me, holding me down or tightening its grip. Once it was around my hips and another time it was around my neck. Sometimes there are a couple of objects on my bed that weren't there before but otherwise the rest of the room is the same. I do start to become afraid in this one and I wonder if this is the reason that these things happen.
Regarding these attempts I have a couple of questions: I was wondering in the one where I start with my "eyes closed", if this is not actually astral projecting and just my mind tricking me while the one with my "eyes open" from the beginning is the actual one. But if both are actual astral projections, then when I come out with my "eyes closed" and its dark, how do I make it brighter? Also what do I do about the threshold guardian and how to get my astral body out when this happens? Also if you have any tips on astral projection, I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!
