Guest guest Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Hi, Pat! That's a great OBE! I love to fly in my OBEs but it is a double-edged sword because I am both drawn to and frightened of flying. If I can stay close to the ground I'm OK, but as soon as a start to ascend to a fair height about the ground, I get antsy. I know I miss out on a lot because of this unfounded fear! I know intellectually that I cannot be hurt while OB, but once I'm OB and begin to fly, the fear kicks in again. In my last OBE, I was flying low over a canyon and a dog and an albino hedgehog (yes, albino hedgehog!!) on the ground kept leaping up into the air as if they wanted to fly with me. Eventually, they did! The hedgehog put it's paw in my hand and the dog took my other hand gently in his mouth and we flew together!!

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 No, Pat, you're definitely not crazy, just spiritually sensitive! I'll be happy to share some of my OBEs with you, but I will send them to you privately as the whole group may not be interested. I hope we BOTH have OBEs again! It is the most exciting experience I've had so far. Claudia --- Pat <LookinglassAussies wrote: > Claudia, Thanks for the detail. I would love to fly > with sweet, loving animals.
