There is more than one variation and strength of real-time double possible. This is greatly
influenced by the quantity of energy flowing into it from the physical/etheric body, and by its
energetically developed state.
A projector's real-time body parts will only become visible if that projector deliberately looks
for them. The hands are the easiest body parts to observe: They vary in appearance from fairly
normal to quite distorted, elongated, spectral, and ghostly. This variability in appearance is probably
related to energetic flow and the corresponding strength of a projection. In all cases, though, realtime
hands will begin melting away almost the moment they are observed, like white ice sculptures
under a powerful blowtorch.
This goes a long way toward explaining how out of body shape-shifting works. Projectors can
deliberately alter their appearance by overriding their natural sense of whole-body self-awareness.
They simply feel themselves as having another shape and form, and concentrate on holding their
new sense of whole-body self-awareness firmly in mind at all times. Natural out-of-body creative
ability does the rest, and their shape is thus altered for as long as they can maintain awareness of
their new sense of form.
