Lesson 7.1: Astral Projection
I’ve waited a bit to talk about this topic because not only have I never astral projected before, but I’m still learning more about the entire term and experience. But still, it’s something I think we should all talk about more so here it is!
First, for you to be able to even wrap your mind around this concept you have to understand something: your physical body is not all there is. You are your consciousness, you are a spiritual being, and your physical body is only a temporary inhabitance for you. It is not all that you are, it’s just your physical container.
Astral projection is what happens when you, the consciousness/spirit/soul reading this, leave your physical body and travel to other places, whether it be on Earth, other planets, or different dimensions entirely. It literally means that your consciousness is projecting itself in the astral realms.
Everyone’s astral projection experience is different, but usually people at first notice that they are floating above their bodies. They can see their body lying fast asleep on their bed, or wherever they are sleeping. They can also notice a white/glowing cord attaching their body to themselves, kind of like an umbilical cord.
Now that you’ve left your physical body behind, you’re functioning in a higher (4th) dimension. You’ve ditched third-dimensional reality. In higher dimensions, your higher frequency makes things look more defined, more beautiful. Things around you in astral projection appear very beautiful.
The key to astral projection (AP) is to remain calm. Being relaxed is essential; if you become fearful of what’s happening, the experience is immediately over.
Having out-of-body experiences like these isn’t a “dream”, it actually happens. When you are astral projecting, you can think of someone and visit them immediately. If you’ve ever heard someone say “meet me in the astral realm”, they’re referencing the fact that you can go to someone while APing, in real time. You both can astral project and meet each other wherever you choose, because anything you want to happen can be manifested.
AP can happen unexpectedly or on purpose. You can be dreaming and then suddenly become conscious in your dream. You can not be having a dream, just regular sleep, and then it can happen as well. However, a lot of people have been able to intentionally astral project.
We all astral project some nights without even realizing it. Your soul can leave your body without you knowing, so take a moment to imagine where you’ve been while your physical body was asleep!
Like I said earlier, the astral realm is a different dimension. Our senses are heightened, which is why things look/sound much more beautiful and why our thoughts instantly become reality.
Astral projection can bring many epiphanies. You can be able to recall past lives, your purpose for being in this life, or even see things into the future. You can also meet your spirit guides/angels and speak to them, or deceased loved ones as well!
Can I get stuck in the astral realm? No! The white/glowing cord connecting your consciousness to your physical body makes sure you come back. The only way that connection can break is if you die, essentially.
What’s the difference between astral projection and dreams? When we dream, our physical body rests as it has to while our consciousness creates its experiences. A lot of the time dreams are hazy, we don’t completely remember them. When we dream, we’re functioning in a lower state of consciousness, vibrating at a lower frequency, than when we’re AP’ing.
Can I meet evil spirits in the astral realm? There is a state of the astral that is very negative and hellish. Nothing can really harm you, because you’re creating your own reality. You can end it at any time. Don’t expect these things to happen, because giving it thought is giving it energy, thus giving it life!
Now that you’re interested in astral projection, how do you do it? And what else can you expect?
Stay tuned for the rest of this lesson, there’s more to come!
