I've finally got around to joining and hopefully getting involved in a few discussions here and there. I've been ducking my head in quite regularly for about 6 months now. It never ceases to amaze me the knowledge some of you guys have on topics that i have an interest in. In fact my eyes have been opened to a great many things since i stumbled upon ATS.

If you don't mind i'm going to dive straight in with a question.

Can anybody shed some light on what the following may mean?

The other night in bed my body gave a jolt just as i was almost asleep. It's prone to doing this since i started suffering from chronic fatigue a couple of years ago. Well, in the few seconds before i commented on the jolt to my partner she says that she turned towards me (still with her eyes closed) and couldn't see me because this opaque white thing, almost like a sarcophagus, was shrouding me from sight. When i spoke this disappeared and she tried to get back to sleep. However she then started to feel really bad vibes coming fom me. She told me all of this the following day and it kinda freaked me out a bit. Now, i thought this might have been to do with auras. An opaque white aura apparently signifies an unbalance within the body and mind which is pretty much how i've been feeling lately. However is it possible to see an aura with your eyes closed?

Or was the whole thing just her having a wierd dream.

That'll probably do for a first post.

Cheers

Hello. Welcome to ATS.

Your story is interesting and I wish I had answers for you.

My encounters with ententes is different from what you describe.

I'm sure someone else here will be able to enlighten you.

Well my friend first and foremost, welcome. I hope you have a great time here learning. As I read the first part of your situation, it reminded me of what happens when I take melatonin to help sleep. However the second part with your partner has me stumped. You might want to make your first thread with this in the paranormal forums. Alot of very helpful people hangout there. You will get everything from metaphysics, through religious, to scientific explanations. Wish I could help more but once again WELCOME

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

I'm looking forward to having some interesting and informative chats.

Last day of work before i'm off to the sun for a week to recharge the old battery by the pool, but hopefully somebody in the know will stumble upon my post.

I'll try posting on the paranormal forums when i return. From what i recall from the introducing video i can only post in the introductions forum until i've made 20 posts.

Thanks again

Hello and welcome to ATS. The experience you and your partner had is interesting. The jolt you had sounds like a normal reaction most people get when falling asleep. This jolt, jerk,twitch, jumping awake when falling sleep happens in stage 1 of the sleep stages, this sudden muscle contraction also called (hypnic myoclonia) comes in the first five-ten minutes when falling asleep and is sometimes accompanied by a sensation of falling. As for your partner I really cant explain that, my best guess would be maybe she was still half asleep when she looked at you and her vision was out of focus causing you to look like a blur, when you spoke to her it caused her brain to kick in and immediately focused her vision. Hope that helped, enjoy your vacation and your stay at ATS.

Welcome to ATS. I'm sure you will find some theories and maybe answers on ATC

Welcome. Great to hear of your experience. To my mind it sounds like an astral projection taking place and stopped mid-flight. Astral projection is when the subtle body (not the aura, but related) leaves the physical body for a nightly journey. Sometimes these journeys and the enities we meet are remembered as dreams (lucid dreaming is one way of entering the astral). I recall waking up above my body one night, and I was sucked downwards and awoke with a jolt. Your wife may have psychic abilities and been in a bit of a trance state (relaxed in bed), and hence she could see into a higher vibration, and therefore your astral form arising and around your body. People who see ghosts/spirits can also get astral visitations from the living.
