New here so thought I would just "jump in".

Astral Projection: Actual OBO or Lucid Dream based on last cognitive memory?''

I have submitted this test to a number of sites and so far … the ones that have had the courage to step up, have ALL failed this test. Some trying a number of times.

Now understand I think Lucid Dreams are cool and a lot of fun. But a dream is nothing more then a dream.

The Test:

A. Buy or get one of those Black Sleep Mask & Ear Plugs.

You will first have to sleep w/these a number of times to get used to them so they are not annoying you.

B. A video recorder. 4 – 8 hours of recording time, based on how long it takes you to get to "Astral Projection" state of mind.

C. Some 2 -4 different random objects and several 3 – 4 bold color cloths – 1/4 blanket size.

…. The random items that are not in the person's mind set of expectations and same with the colors. Not 'expected' colors.

E. The person doing the test canNOT see these items until AFTER the test.

Now record the room as the astral projection test is being started. Record especially the BED and a 2-4 foot area around the sides and foot of bed. We need to see the person with the Sleep Mask Eye Covering and putting the Ear Plugs into his/her ears.

…. Obviously this implies a light of some brightness must be on to see the colors, room, sleeper and objects.

Have the person doing the astral projection lay down on the bed w/a light blanket-sheet over them.

Then put bright colored cloths on the person in a random order and put the objects on the side and foot of bed. These must be very OBVIOUS and again NOT pre-seen by the person doing the Astral Projection.

>> VIDEO CAMERA IS RUNNING THE WHOLE TIME!

Especially watching the face to insure the person is NOT trying to peek under the sleep mask. Obviously the integrity of the person is expect to be honest and play fair. If they cheat, they only cheated and lied to themselves….

Then have the do "their thing".

After they state, "I'm done…" … video still running -- walk them out of the room w/the Sleep Mask still on .. take them to another room and have them tell you what color the cloth was that was on the cover over them and what objects were around the bed. Then take them back into the room to let them see.

If they only saw what they saw before the room was changed and/or expectations … then it was ….>>> NOT … Astral Projection… Just 100% Lucid Dream.
