Heyo everyone! I'm not sure if I am having sleep paralysis because of some spiritual reasoning and I need some help figuring it out. The first time I had ever had it was when I first astral projected. I freaked out inside because I saw a shadow figure, but it felt like something bad and it grew larger and larger with sharp looking talons for hands. They were about 3 times the size of a normal hand. Anyways, I remember I tried screaming but nothing could come out. It was like my vocals cords were being silenced but not by me. I tried swinging my hand up or to open my eyes at least and I couldn't move one bit. I tried for about 10 seconds then I opened my eyes. I got up super fast and went upstairs. I had no clue what happened. I just started diving into different spiritual things, like spirit guides, how to contact them, different types of spirits, past lives, how to contact my higher self. I meditated a lot. I was also starting to learn astral projection, in which resulted in my first one that lead to sleep paralysis. That was back in 2018. Now I am experiencing paralysis again and I am not sure why. And it's right before I fall asleep. It has happened 2 times in the past 1 and a half weeks. It's weird because everytime it was in the same place, at someone elses house. I experience a pulsating buzzing in my head when it happens. First I feel pressure inside my head, and then the buzzing and the paralysis simotaneously right after. The first time i was a bit frightened because it hasnt happened to me in about 2 years, but i got over it quickly. The buzzing was constant the first time, but the second time it was one medium length electrical type buzz then a short one and a long one following that. This one lasted about 5 seconds. If anyone knows what could possibly be truggering this, please let me know. I'm really curious as to why it's happening. Thank you for reading all of this. It means a lot
