Blog Post No. 7 Travel to Astral Projection

      Our minds has no limits. It tends to explore and discover such things and places existing in the world. It can be seen by our naked eyes, or even those things that we didn't know that exists. Do you know that too much Lucid dreaming can lead you to Astral Projection? Are you aware of what's Astral Projection?

       Astral projection, also known as astral travel is an interpretation of an out-of-the body experience (OBE.) It assumes that our  'astral body' separate from our physical body and is now capable to travel to the astral plane. In religious terms, it is known as the 'afterlife'.

       In the article "Astral Projection" by Erin Pavlina, it states there that the difference of astral projection in lucid dreaming is that you are awake then you project. Also, your experience here is real and it always begins where your body is. In addition, you can manipulate your environment in the astral plane but you cannot control the actions of what's happening there. And when the experience is over, you will have to return to your body and your consciousness back. While in lucid dreaming, you are asleep and your experience is just a dream. Your environment is where you want to be and your consciousness is still inside you body. And when the experience is over, you simply wake up. If you are not an accomplished lucid dreamer, you'll probably have some trouble with conscious astral projection.

       Pavlina says, "Sometimes I will be having a lucid dream followed by a false awakening." This just proves that in some cases, you will really have to know lucid dreaming before you can do astral projection. Unfortunately, you will have to master it which will probably take years.

       According to the article "The Art Of Astral Projection" by Steve G. Jones, there are few advisable tips you could practice to do Astral Projection. First is lying down to start the process of astral projection. You can also prefer to seat if you want to do a Zen meditation. But it is wiser to lie down and allow your mind to completely relax. Then you need to concentrate on the process of astral projection. Meaning, you have to visualize yourself exiting your body. 

       Next is the process of moving the soul from the body. Which is reaching a hypnotic state. This lets your mind and body to sleep but don't completely lose consciousness. To achieve this, keep your eyes closed and let your mind wander to a part of your body, such as your hand, foot or a toe. Focus until you can visualize it perfectly. Use your mind to flex your body part but do not physically move. Until you focus on visualizing your whole body.

                          

         

       The next thing is entering a state of vibration. You will feel some vibrations as your soul prepares to leave the body. Don't be afraid because your fear could cause to interfere your meditation.

       Then use your mind to move your soul from your body. Imagine in your ming the room in which you are lying. Try to move your body in your mind to stand up. After, get up and walk around.

        The last thing is returning to your body. Your soul will always remain connected to your body. Let the force guide your soul back to your body. Then try moving the parts of your body and let yourself regain full consciousness.

         Jones said that, "The ability to do so requires the right approach to the process." I agree with what he said because you could not successfully do the astral projection if you are doing it the wrong way. Doing this will take us years to practice.

          In conclusion, Astral projection can't be done by everyone. There are people who can naturally do it, there are some who practices it. Some are those who has mastered their lucid dreaming.
