What I saw in the mirror was an ANGEL with my face.

From OBERF.
EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION:   

One night 21 years ago now, I had an experience that changed my life forever. I was unable to tell most people about this since they would naturally say I was nuts, on drugs, alcohol, or dreaming.

It goes like this. One night I started quaking/shuddering/something and then felt myself sitting up in my body. Not one of me, but several of me. Kind of like a deck of cards. As I sat there in myself and having turned to put my feet on the floor, I looked to the left to see myself lying there. I don't know how I could see because it was pitch dark. Then I stood up, turned to the right, walked (I think) across the hall to the bathroom, flipped on the light (again I don't know how without a body), and then turned to look at myself in the mirror. That's when I got the shock of my life.

At this time in my life I had been eating poorly, smoking too much, drinking too much, not sleeping enough (working 3rd. shift). I had a scraggly reddish beard (although I'm blond headed) and a lot of pimples and pock marks and the hair on my head as already receding badly.  

What I saw in the mirror was an ANGEL with my face.( no wings ) My face and complexion were perfect, I had no facial hair, I had shoulder length perfect blond hair, bright blue eyes, and wearing some sort of white robe to the extent that I could see in the short mirror. I remember thinking that this is what I will look like when I'm dead. Then I simply turned, clicked off the light, went back into the bedroom and then many of my selves laid back down into my body.

Then the shuddering/gagging/something happened again as I woke up completely.  I sat up and turned on the light and looked at the clock. It was 3:00 !! This experience scared me to the point that for many years I slept with the radio on and listened for the time. I was afraid to look at the clock and see 3:00 again and I didn't shave my beard off for many years. I am now 57 yr. old and have long since gotten over my fears, but I would love to know what this experience was all about.

I like this topic,Stephen.     A good description of an OBE?   

Was he seeing the spiritual side of him?    The side that showed the good side of him as he will look when he leaves his physical body on return to the spirit world.

Sometimes Stephen....sometimes not...No emoticons working......was looking for a sad face...LOL

He was looking at his worst fears   . His worst fear wasn't death, his worst fear was that he was a beautiful person. "Sometimes Stephen....sometimes not" , it would be my guess Joan that "if not" that there is a good reason for it. john

plus 3 am is the time the veil between the upper and lower worlds is the thinnest

That's right.   Usually I wake up then,pop into the kitchen for a cuppa and back to bed again.  3am.   What did they usually call that?    No,I thinking of 12 midnight.  
They have a special name for it....is it the Twilight hour?

Don't some folks call it the

 'witching Hour'

 I think that is a lovely remark,thank Laura ann.

Thank you....

Wow!
What an experience!!!!

I had a real frightening experience once.
Shan't share it here tho, cos you may get more answers Stephen xxx

I am wondering, if, the 'several of you' were layers of unhappiness, worries, fears etc, being peeled off, to show not exactly what you would look like, but how you would feel if they were not there.

love that  idea Mia
