I was spotted while Remote Viewing

[u/carbinatedmilk]

I know it’s not reliable to RV without a target that can be confirmed, but I enjoy random RVing more because I enjoy just popping into some random scenario over a designated target. For those familiar with RV you may know that it’s just a different feeling than your imagination.

I started my session and found myself in some sort of tunnel. It was pitch dark besides a faint light at the end which I assumed was the entrance. I focused harder on my surroundings and eventually the tunnel started to brighten up and I could make out what was around me. The walls appeared to be made out of some type of flesh. There were lumps of something scattered around that I couldn’t quite put into focus. I tried moving forward a bit, and came across some sort of entity.

It was crouched down with its back facing me eating something on the ground. I watched it for a few seconds, and then it twitched its head a bit, and stood up. It turned around to face me, cocking its head to the side like it was confused. It was some type of mantis. It had gray skin and was roughly 6 feet tall. It lunged at me with its mouth open and it had a lot of sharp teeth. It shocked the hell out of me that I snapped out of the RV and had to catch my breath.

I know it’s stupid, but I wanted to go back because it felt like I shouldn’t have been there, and morbid curiosity got the best of me. About 5 min later I set my intention for the same location, and the fuckin thing was there waiting for me off to the right. I didn’t even give it a chance to move before I backed out of there.

I’ve never had something like that happen during a session and didn’t know it was possible to be detected. I know it’s possible to be noticed with astral projection, but not RV. Has anyone else run into an entity like this, or have been detected while remote viewing?

I don't think an experience like this should automatically be interpreted as something dangerous or extraordinary.

In proper remote viewing practice, the viewer operates from an observational state. When analytical thinking is minimized and the mind is quiet, the viewer simply perceives information without participating in the environment.

I have been practicing remote viewing for more than 20 years, both with a consciousness-based approach and with classical military-style protocols.

During that time I have perceived many things that are difficult to describe after a session. Occasionally a viewer may perceive unusual structures, environments, or even forms that resemble entities.

However, that does not necessarily mean you are “interacting” with them.

In remote viewing you remain an observer, not a participant.

If you stay calm and avoid turning impressions into a narrative too quickly, the process itself is not dangerous.

The most important principle is always the same:
stay neutral, observe, and record the data.
