I recently transitioned from a dream to the astral plane. I didn’t sleep most of the night; I was awake from 12 am until 7 am. Around that time, I used the Book of Cards sigil for lucid dreaming as a last effort to project. About 20 minutes later, I was able to fall asleep and transitioned from a dream to the astral plane.
I started inside a moving tunnel, dark with blue lights flashing. I’m used to these tunnels, so I usually focus my will on where I want to go, and the tunnel takes me there. But this time, there was a lady speaking, telling me, “The year is … and you’re a warrior, fighting in a desert-like environment.” I was like, “NO, NO! I don’t want to go to deserts. Tropical islands, tropical islands, or deep space.” But I had no control this time. The tunnel kept going after the female voice stopped, and I was dropped in the middle of what felt like a gladiator battle. I couldn’t see, but I could feel and sense everything. I was in the middle of a one-on-one battle with a big, fat warrior. He grabbed me and slammed me. That’s when I realized this was real. I felt all the pain.
While on the ground, I grabbed some sand and threw it in his face as he tried to grab me. Then I got up and started hitting him hard. I felt bigger than usual and had a lot of muscles, more so than in this 3D world. The warrior suddenly rushed at me, and I jumped as high as I could over his head (I couldn’t fly) and kicked him in the back while in the air, causing him to fall. Before I could catch my breath, the fat warrior rushed at me again, this time with two swords, and slashed me in half. That kicked me out of the experience, and I woke up.
I’m guessing that this female guide took me to a timeline where I was/am a warrior. I felt every single hit. It wasn’t as painful as in 3D, but I still felt them.
