floating sensation, etc, and theneverything just stops. It just goes away, leaving the almost-projector lying therewondering what happened and why they failed. Most people this happens to also feelexhausted, or partially or fully paralyzed, after their seemingly failed projection attemptand soon fall into a deep sleep. The projection, in this case, will proceed without them,being centered in their projected double, without them being aware they have succeeded.In most cases, no memory of the successful projection will be evident upon waking.FEAR has many colors:1. Fear of heavy projection exit sensations.2. Fear of the unknown out of body environment.3. Religion instilled worry/fear of doing the wrong thing.Fear has many subtle forms. All of these can be progressively overcome byunderstanding the mechanics and dynamics of OOBE and by experiencing the projectedstate at first hand. Projection out of body requires some bravery and fear is one of thefirst natural barriers faced by all new projectors standing on the threshold of a consciousexit projection. Fear is a natural barrier, apparently designed to stop people projectinguntil they are psychologically ready to operate out of their bodies."True bravery is not the ability to feel no fear, but is the ability to control fear whilstcontinuing to function in a reasonably normal fashion." RBDuring an oobe, a projector is virtually invulnerable and can pass through solidmatter, sit on ground zero during an atomic blast, or even to bask within the heart of asupernova unscathed. The only thing to fear while out of body is 'fear' itself. Nothingelse can directly hurt a projector and nothing can get at their physical body and mindduring a conscious projection. While it is fairly rare to come across anything nasty ornegative during a projection, any troublesome entity a projector might stumble acrosscannot, therefore, directly harm them. They can, however, show themselves as a formdesigned to scare the daylights out of a projector, and this can cause psychologicallydamage. This can also result in a subconscious fear of OOBE. It can cause aninstinctive, negative baulking type of reaction, which can ruin every conscious exit. Thiscan stop a projector from enjoying conscious OOBE for the remainder of their life, unlessthey can program themselves to overcome it. If this is already the case, I suggest acourse of affirmations and self-hypnosis be used to overcome it. Fear Of OOBE Exit Sensations: Fear of OOBE exit sensations is the very first of the natural barriers to consciousexit oobe needed to overcome. This is not easy and can take a lot of control, as well as alot of faith that the heavy physical sensations of early conscious projections will notactually hurt you. The sensations can be 'extremely' physical and violent, especiallyduring the first few conscious exit attempts, but will always progressively reduce duringsubsequent projections. The physical heartbeat is 'not' actually increased by a conscious exit projectionattempt. It is not 'caused' to physically race by the OOBE attempt - although it will oftendefinitely 'feel' like it is racing so fast it seems about to explode. This racing sensation isthe heart chakra (primary center) working overtime to provide the energy needed togenerate and project the
