Today is Jan 13, 2003. I have thought back to a time when I opened my eye in an astral projection. It changed from grey, night vision, to very colorful vision, day vision. I walked through a bush into a path. I saw half human/ half creature like that of the Egyptians. I met a young lady with curly black hair that knew me by identifying my inner nature which only I know and I saw people riding a serpent down a river. She said I used to play with her when we were young.

So today I thought and try it again to open my eye while it is close. It makes perfect sense that if your eyes are close and if you try to open them, but not the physical eye, eventually something will happen. This will be the second morning that I try this. Within 20 minutes of experiment, my eyes open. To my amaze it work just as I thought. My physical eyes were still close, but my spirit eye was open. And upon their opening, so my spirit was free from my body as will. I look around the room, it look the same. I feel there was a lot of energy, vibrating all around the room. I notice that if I focus on one thing, I can't see it too well. The trick to looking was to look at the whole room. There was color aura emanating from the room as well.

I thought to move my arm and they moved. I thought to lift my upper body from my bed and it lift. Then I thought, its 10 am now and I better feed the kids. So I went back into my body. In the process, I can't move my physical body. I feel as if I'm really weak. When I fit into my body I was able to move slowly, eventually I got up and feel stronger then ever. I was amaze how quickly it took to feel strong performing OBE this way.
