OBE
Don't know of this is the correct category for this, mods feel free to move it. I was in bed the other morning with my girlfriend, she was lying with her back to me. A couple of seconds before the alarm went off I was totally awake, this in itself is odd, I'm an extremely heavy sleeper, I've been working really long 100+ hour weeks and every night I crash out and can barely get-up in the morning. In the split second that I looked over at my girlfriend I clearly saw her jump in to bed where she was already lying, she then woke up as the alarm sounded.
I described this to my father, we're extremely close and I can talk about anything with him, he imediatley and calmly described it as an OBE and talked to me briefly about the astral body. He said that he has them all the time and has even sucessfully induced astral projection.
This is all a bit new to me, I knew my dad was quite spirtual and we'd spoken previously about spiritual healing and psychics. He believes very strongly that his mother 'had the gift', he also believes that my own mother represses the gift.
I often have dreams of flying and always seem to be very perceptive although I neither believe or dis-believe in the "paranormal". I think he'd quite like me to further examine my own abilities.
Just hoping to kick off a discussion.
