Default OBE questions...

I am quite new to all of this, and I had a question or 2 about "practicing" the steps to induce an OBE.

First, I wanted to hear some opinions on the subject -
I know we all have some degree of psychic abilities, but do you really think it is possible for anyone and everyone to have an OBE with enough patience/practice? This is something I really want to try to do, and I'm not expecting results by next week

Secondly, as with any kind of venture into the relatively "unknown," I must admit I am going into this with a little bit of....fear? Did you find that over time, this fear subsided by the time you were actually successful in having an OBE? Or, if I am still experiencing a little fear in this area by the time I actually have an OBE, does this automatically make for a negative/scary experience?

Thanks in advance for any opinions

yes. everyone can learn it. fear will slow down your progress though so you will have to learn to trust the experience and that it is completely safe (which it is) before you will become an 'expert'. i suggest you read up on everything about it that you can find, and look into the things that scare you so that you can see that there is no reason to fear them. how long it takes differs from person to person, but generally it requires dedication, practice and patience to achieve it. if you think you have that, go for it.

as for having negative experiences if you are afraid, what will most likely happen is that you will be unable to project because fear lowers your vibration and you will snap back into your body. if however you project into the astral and have an astral projection instead of an obe (the diffrence being that in obes you go to the real time zone or RTZ which is basically reality, whereas the astral is where u dream) you will notice that things are a bit different. in the astral thought = reality, our world is a reflection of this but here things take 'time' to manifest whereas there its instant. therefore, if you think you will encounter evil astral beings, you probably will. its therefore important that you go with love, because like attracts like. i personally dont believe they are there unless you make them be there, so you really have nothing to fear except your own imagination, which you can control, or learn to control. if you are a happy person normally, and get happy when drunk or on drugs, you will likely have pleasant obes. thats my experience anyway

Go in prepared. That's key. Have a plan for what you'll do if you get scared by the experience or if you encounter something with a negative vibration.

CAll in your guides to help you, and call in an angel or two as well.

I'll bet most people are afraid their first time. Feel the fear and do it anyway.
