Floating in Space

Last night I had a series of dreams. At one point I became lucid and was aware that I was in the astral again. So to test if I was really in the astral I gave a little jump again and sure enough I floated. But interestingly this time I did not come back down again. I remained floating in the air.

This surprised me quite a bit. WTF! I thought to myself. I'm not coming down as I usually do. I simply floated in air, or space. I wiggled myself so as to loosen myself from whatever was causing me to remain afloat and eventually I came back to the ground. It seems that all that wiggling around interrupted my lucidity and I woke up in the physical shortly after coming back to the ground in the astral. During my short stay in the astral as I looked around I could make out that the sky was bright and sunny. I could see a few white puffy clouds in the sky but I couldn't make out where I was.

Interestingly last week I had a similar experience. As I lay in bed to go to sleep I became aware of that point between vigil and sleep. I consciously made the effort to get up in the astral and found myself in empty space. There was absolutely nothing there. I felt the sensation of floating so I made the motion as to swim to the surface as if I were underwater. I used my arms to propel myself upwards. I didn't reach any surface. Instead I found myself simply floating in empty, pitch black, space. As I floated there I suddenly saw strange symbols circling around me. They were moving from right to left. The symbols were of different colors, some were green, some were yellow, some were blue, some were red, etc. They were not very sharp. The images looked sort of fuzzy and the colors were not very vivid but I could definitely see the images and the colors. It's as if I was in the center of these figures and the figures were circling, rotating, around me from right to left.
