Thread: A.E.P Experiment (Accuracy of Ethereal Projections)

You may have a problem to see it because it's dark inside the box. Better open the cover after you shake the box ( maybe while you wear a mask to hide all sight ) and put it in a location where you can't see which number it is unless you go over to it and look from above.

Well, I was going to open the box while out of body. Perhaps I should do a few preliminary trials so that I dont run into any unexpected problems mid-experiment.

Also, I think I am going to do a few of this preliminary runs and see how many dice would be the most effective, instead of just using one. Ideally I could do 6 dice per trial, but remembering a 6-digit number while out of body may be too difficult. I think ill do the following:

Prelim 1.) 1 die

Prelim 2.) 2 dice

Prelim 3.) 3 dice

Prelim 4.) 4 dice

Prelim 5.) 6 dice

not only to see how many dice I can effectively use per trial, but also for a little practice before the real thing.

well, you can't "physically" open the box while OOB because your hands will go through it.
Maybe you can paranormally see into the box, but it will still be dark. In any case I think you are adding here an unnecessary difficulty by keeping the box closed.

Perhaps. I could always do prelims with and without the top being closed, just to see if it has any effects. Its true, the last one of these types of experiments I did, I didnt have to move or "change" anything to see the object, but this time I do.

You could just use a box with one transparent side (glass or plastic foil) and shake it at an angle where you can't see the dice. You could then leave it on the floor or on a table next to a light source so you can se clearly.

I bought the box at a hobby store for a buck, but when I was there I saw a few boxes that had one tranparent side, also for a buck. Maybe it would be worth buying one, what do you think?

Sure, or just open the cover after the shaking while your eyes are shut, and then you can save a buck.

Anyway, I acquired the materials needed. I have a better setup than before. The container has a black base but otherwise it completely transparent which allows for good light. The die is a cube that has different colored sides: Neon Green, Neon Orange, Blue, Red, Black, and White. I had experimented with all sorts of combinations of neon and regular colors and this combo seems to produce the most contrast in both hue and value. Tonight, if I manage to LD/EP/leave my body and do the first trial successfully, tomorrow I will post the results.

Alright, so the serious trials will begin soon. I recently started a new work schedule that may give me a great opportunity to EP each day (in the daytime), whereas before I was simply trying to it at 4am. I will keep you posted with results (may take some time to get back into the stride of things)

As it turns out, I have been using this free time so far to do some Christmas shopping, went to the dentist today, and in general it seems to be a great time to get things done that simply need to get done as an adult living on earth.

But it's OK, because I have at least one whole day a week (where I can totally screw up my sleep schedule if I need to) to attempt to LD without it affecting my day to day life, nor cutting into my weekend playtime.

Seeing as there is a necessity to compromise here, giving myself a set day to try will not only allow me to get other things done, it will also keep me more motivated/focused as compared to thinking I can "just try again tomorrow..."

So, seeing as I will be doing these trials late Thursday night/ early Friday morning, each Friday afternoon check back for my results. I will post weekly here (even if it's the trial was a complete failure to LD).
