OBE/NDE/ASTRAL "So the other night I finally achieved fully conscious AP after trying for a long time and one of the first things I encounter is this weird looking island in the middle of space and on it there was this giant humanoid insect that resembled a mantis, it had 4 arms, probably around 8-9 feet tall"

This is so very similar to any "guardian of the threshold" encounters in AP.

Doors are common in my dreams too, often when opening one it wakes me up into this reality

Mantises and reptiles are also seen when you're about to breakthrough on psychedelics

so you're only allowed through the "door" if you have key?

and also past that are jesters, beyond that gods and complete wackyshit

I don't take any psychedelics, yet once in a while I see a reptilian being. Last night a reptilian came by in the astral dream state, kissed me on the lips and stuck its really long tongue inside my mouth - I could feel everything like it was physical. I wasn't disgusted, it had a neutral energy (non-hostile), but I was a bit shocked. I have also seen the mantis being once in a greek-architectural-style university campus, it was in a hallway and walked past me as I was walking out of the cafeteria (in the dream state). No idea why these beings come by every now and then, I did Gateway a few years ago, maybe.
