Hello, baby001.

I read your original post, and wonder if your intention has something to do with it:

I am in a dry spell. I usually have 1 ~ 2 OBEs every week. But recently I decided to get very serious about it and wanted to use my OBEs to contact the deceased relatives and get verifiable info from them. After I made that decision, I only had one short OBE and that is it Your intentions can prime your consciousness to access the specific energy body needed to have the experience you're looking for. Depending on the information you're looking for or the stage of the afterlife you're trying to access, this could be somewhere in the astral or mental plane.

OBEs occur during trying to learn to use the etheric body (bedroom/RTZ OBEs) or astral body (farther-ranging OBEs and astral projections). A lot of them may actually be simulations for getting full use of the astral body, even though they mostly look like a "regular OBE" on the physical-etheric plane.

To visit the afterlife, you have to tune into the astral and mental planes. The deceased only stay on this plane for a rather short time. The various other areas they pass through are entirely nonphysical. In trying to reach for these higher planes you may have triggered a growth process that is not yet easily or fully recalled (you might even dismiss these experiences as dreams), not experienced as lucidly, evaporate your recall soon after waking and before you could analyse them or even do not get recalled at all.

From your point of view it might seem nothing is happening, or if your experiences have been reduced to next to nothing, when in reality aspects of your being are absorbing relevant lessons every night to honor your intention. It wasn't just any intention either. Usually such an intention to communicate with the deceased can be seen to put the displayed talent to good use, and that's why the intention is honored. People need to know about the afterlife, and there is a need for people that can connect there and come back.

It's a tricky phase to be in, usually, when such a switch occurs. There's frustration and confusion. Everything seemed to run so well. Results seemed more or less reliable. We actually often prefer that to the next step, where there are challenges, some frustration and new learning, especially if we're not knowing what is going on. It was really, really frustrating for me.

I go through these "dry spells" from time to time, and these shifts are necessary, I know they are. But I also know it often conflicts with my expectations and desires. What I do is trust the process now. It has taken me farther every time, even though I had no idea what would come up next each time.

Cheers,
Oliver
