Simplicity

[Eddie]

Last night at the end of one of my dreams (which was quite interesting in itself), instead of simply waking up, I felt myself settle into my body (I "fell" into it), and remained in a hypnogogic state....hearing the passing roars, etc. Then, after a few seconds, I felt my astral body start to lift back out of my body; it started at the feet, then forelegs, then the top of my head. It was as if I was being pulled out of my body at both ends.

I thought, "Wow! I'm slipping consciously into another dream, but instead of having a random dream, I'm going to take an astral journey under my own conscious direction!" So, I started thinking about a certain person I wanted to visit in my astral body; but the act of doing that caused me to enter the waking state, and the part of me that was out-of-body snapped quickly back in, and I found myself wide awake. It was frustrating.
