astral projection gone wrong??

[aquarius]

I had an intense nightmare last night. I was being followed by people who seemed to be ghosts but who I know are still alive. I felt like I was waking up from my dream and I was trying to scream but I couldn't. I saw a person leaning over me in my face and I was terrified. I finally screamed out "mom" and it disappeared and I was fully awake in my bed. I felt like I was drifting in and out of sleep for the next few hours and I was trying not to fall asleep because I felt terrified of what I would see if I fell asleep. Once, I heard someone describe a similar experience and they thought they were astral projecting and awoke before they were in their body. About 20 yrs ago I had a similar experience where I was napping on my bed and I awoke with a black figure on top of me, I couldn't scream, had a terrifying feeling, and felt like it was smothering me. If anyone has any ideas what the dream could mean, please let me know! My mom died last June after being in a car wreck and having severe brain damage for 1 1/2 yrs. She couldn't move or talk and needed 24/7 care. So, of course I felt her presence as the person was leaning over me and I finally screamed mom and it disappeared. I don't know if it was her communicating with me.

Hello aquarius.

That has happened to a lot of people, and has been recorded for hundreds of years, even back into ancient Japan. They called it the old hag, who would come in a persons weakened state to torment. Also with those who have claimed alien abduction. Those who are religous claim its a demon. One thing is for sure, its because of a weakened state a person is placed into. A loss of freinds or relatives can bring this on.

Most people can brush this off, to one or two acounts, though some have a very hard time getting rid of this. Those who can not get rid of it claim its a real being tormenting them, and seek help. I do know there is help for it out there, and maybe someone can direct you to that, if you keep having trouble with it.

I have heard some people directly tell me they actually saw a being of some kind jump from another person onto them, and they had a real hard time getting rid of it. On one acount it was because they went to someone for spiritual help, when they aquired it, and then had to seek out someone eles to help them get rid of it. I have heard that several times, that there is something that likes to jump from person to person because of their life force.

I actually had someone personally tell me about a being they met, this person ever since had terrible problems, and anyone she came across she tormented, even me. Its one of those things you might take lightly but wasnt untill i saw it for myself, that i took a step back as it was screaming at me. I have only ever seen it twice, and in both circumstances were women, and they both liked to torment others. The third was a guy who told me on the internet, and he also liked to torment people. The ones who dont accept them are normally driven into depression, by a constant harrasment.

I think the difference is there are some people who want to be normal and cant be, then their are some who want to be more than they are, but have trouble with that. Its the fight and strugle out of what seems a impossible situation that this comes about.

Pray the Lords prayer every night before going to bed, and dont think of depressing feelings, or the feeling the dream has. It can be a heavy feeling, and leave you mouth dry.

peace and love in Jesus.
