Each person has the natural ability to astral project. Many people do it and are not even aware of the fact that they do. The key is to consciously astral project, and control where your astral body is going and what it is doing.

If you are interested in astral projecting, you probably already know what your astral body is and about the astral plane. Read on to find a few different methods that will help you learn to astral project. Since astral projecting is such a personal experience, it is important for you to find techniques that suit you best.

This first method is easy for most people, and you do it just as you are getting ready to fall asleep. It is a very simple five step technique.

*The first thing you want to do is get completely relaxed. You can’t astral project unless you achieve a deep level of relaxation. Lie down in bed, and begin with your toes. Tense them up for a few moments, then consciously relax every muscle. Do the same thing to every muscle, working your way up your body until you finish with your head and face. This may feel unfamiliar at first, but you will soon get used to this method of relaxation. Your body may feel rather heavy. This is perfectly normal and nothing to worry about.

*Second, you need to deepen and slow your breathing. There is a technique that is used for meditation, and what you want to do it breathe in deeply and pay attention to the way the air feels as it enters your lungs and moves down through to your diaphragm. Then you exhale completely, slowly and as you feel the air leaving your lungs and going out of the body you are relaxing your body and mind. It is important that as you breathe in deeply that you do not fall asleep, to help avoid falling asleep you may want to focus on the center of your forehead.

*Third, pay attention to how you feel physically. You should feel as if your body were very heavy. It should feel like it would be very difficult to move about. Once you feel these sensations, turn your attention to your astral body. Your astral body should feel light and weightless. It should feel free. Close your eyes to see your astral body. You are as weightless as bubbles or feathers floating on the breeze. The weight of your physical body does not affect the lightness of your astral body.

*This is the point when many people who prefer this astral projection technique say that they can see the dark room through their closed eyelids. They describe the room as being full of purple light. If you achieve this step, focus on the ceiling light.

*For the fifth step, imagine that you are pulling the ceiling light toward you. As you pull on the light, you will most likely feel like you are floating. It is very important to remain awake. Now that you are aware of the floating sensation, you may be able to look down on your sleeping physical body on the bed.

Wow you just had a successful astral projection session! Now you can begin astral traveling. If this method did not work well for you, try out the next one.

This technique is known as the gazing method. You can do this technique when you are going to bed as well. All you need is something to focus on, this can be a picture in your room, the moon outside the window, a crystal, whatever you prefer.

Once you’ve chosen your object, lie down and get comfortable. Turn your attention to the object. As you keep staring at it, your eyelids should begin to feel heavy. No matter what, keep staring at the object. While your eyes will tend to close eventually, you should still be able to see the object. While you continue to stare, you may feel the urge to sit or stand up. When you do get up, don’t be surprised if you see your physical form peacefully asleep.

If these techniques don’t work for you the first couple of times, don’t get discouraged. Try them again. If they still don’t work, there are other methods to try. It is imperative that you don’t get frustrated. This will only cause anxiety and make it more difficult to relax completely so you can achieve a successful astral projection.

It is important that you realize that tools and techniques aren’t really holding you back. The main obstacle to successful astral traveling is your own subconscious mind. You may need to give your subconscious mind reassurances that it is okay for your astral body to separate from your physical body for a while. Affirmations are an excellent way to send this message. Once your subconscious mind accepts this message, astral projecting will be a piece of cake!

There are also a few other short cuts to help you astral project very rapidly. Without them it can take a long time to get into the right state of mind but if you use them it can happen very fast after your first attempt!

Hypnosis may help you achieve a relaxed state much more quickly. If you use a quality guided hypnosis session, it can also help explain how to astral project so you don’t have to worry about remembering what to do next. This lets you just follow the session and relax, increasing your chances of having a successful astral projection.

There is also a sound technology that is being developed called “binaural beats.” In this technology, different sound frequencies are played in each ear. This sends signals to your brain that quickly relaxes you into a deep meditative state, increasing the likelihood of a successful astral projection.

Remember that being able to astral project is not as difficult as most people believe it is. It is a natural ability that you were born with, and all of these tools and techniques just help you to fine tune an ability which is already there!

Can I Really Astral Project?

There are millions of people who believe that astral projection is real and that anyone can, and have, achieved this altered state. The key to this projection is practice and that is all it takes to astral project. Believed to be an ancient practice, followers say this practice should be treated with respect. Astral projection is a lot like meditating or yoga and comes in many different forms.

The initial level of astral projection is lucid dreaming. This type of dreaming is dreaming consciously and is known as the first phase of astral projection. By telling yourself ‘I am dreaming’, the simplest form of projection can be achieved.

Saying this key phrase ‘I am dreaming’ over and over again, allows you to wake up in your dream and do anything you desire. This may take time to learn and can be difficult, so don’t be discouraged.

It is believed that astral projection is very real and that most people have already projected even though they don’t realize it. If you have ever woken up in the middle of the night and recalled a dream as if it was real, this is a form of astral projection.

Believing that you can project is the key to achieving it. This faith eliminates doubts and fears about astral projection and helps you to easily achieve projection.

Methods that help you to relax like meditating helps to promote projection. Meditation prepares the mind and body for astral projection and all it takes is practice and time through meditating properly.

To begin meditation, sit in a quiet, peaceful room in a comfy chair, make sure that there are no distractions. As you become relaxed, clear your mind of all stress and day to day problems, if these thoughts continue to work there way back into your head, just continue to push them out. Breathing deeply is the next step, focus on slow, deep breaths. This practice will help you reach ultimate relaxation and help you to transition into astral projection.

Reaching an alternate state of consciousness is the next step. Continue to work on breathing and now your primary goal is to remove stress and completely clear your mind. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. As breathing becomes slower and deepens, focus on your body and relaxing it.

Focus on separate areas of the body, beginning with your toes. Tense each part of the body and relax as you work your way up from your toes to your head. As you exhale, tell yourself, ‘my arms are relaxing and I am relaxing.’

You will begin to feel heavy as if energy is escaping each area of your body, slowly slipping away. Once you are completely relaxed, it is time to move on to the next level of astral projection.

The next step, sleep. You have prepared your mind and body for s deep sleep, but remember to stay alert and relaxed. Come up with your own phrase such as ‘I fly, I fly’ there is no wrong motto, so find one that you are comfortable with.

Boredom tends to set in when the mind is not stimulated, so you may find yourself losing focus. If you find yourself doing this, stop the session or to help bring your mind back into focus, continue to repeat your phrase.

There are different ways to achieve a state of altered consciousness. You can repeat your chosen phrase or do it another way. Imagine a glowing light, and then imagine you entering it and transforming yourself into this body of light. This is referred to as the body of light technique.

As you start to astral project, there are three signs which you can watch for to know that you are doing so successfully. The first is a sensation of motion, even though your physical body is perfectly still. The second is ’seeing’ color and light, even though your eyes will be closed. Last, youll hear voices. These voices will either be urging you to continue or to stop ” this is a sure fire sign that you are on your way to astral projecting.

Learn How To Astral Project Naturally

The ability to astral project is something which everyone already has naturally; in fact, you’ve probably astral projected before without knowing it. What we’re going to talk about here is learning to consciously astral project and have control over where your astral body goes.

We’ll assume that you already know about the astral plane and the astral body. Instead of defining these terms, we’ll cover methods of learning how to astral project. It’s something that everyone does a little differently, so you need to find the techniques which perform the best for you individually.

There is one technique which you can practice as you’re lying in bed about to go to sleep. There are five steps to this method.

*First: Start by tensing, then relaxing every part of your body. Start with your toes and work your way up to your head. You’ll probably begin to feel heavy; this is nothing to worry about and is a sign that you’re becoming deeply relaxed.

*Second; Breathe slowly and deeply. This is something which is done while meditating. Focus on the sensation of the air moving through your lungs. Exhale as slowly as you inhale, imagining your stress floating away with each exhalation. Try not to fall asleep as you do this, though you may need to try this a few times before you can remain awake during this step.

*Third; Focus on the deeply relaxed way your body feels; it probably feels like stone or clay; that is to say, heavy and difficult to move. Next, concentrate on the weightlessness of your astral body and picture it floating up out of your physical body.

*Fourth; Now you may have the experience of being able to see perfectly well in your darkened room which should now be illuminated by a purple light; even though your eyes are closed! Turn your attention to the light which is coming from your ceiling.

*Fifth; Try to visualize pulling this light to your astral body. You’ll feel like you’re floating; this is your astral body floating above your physical body. Just look down and you’ll be able to see your bed with your physical body at rest below.

At this point you are now astral projecting and your astral body is free to begin traveling the astral plane. If you aren’t able to successfully astral project using this technique, you can try the following method.

This technique can help you as you learn to astral project. This is called the gazing method and it’s quite simple. You need to choose something to focus your attention on; it doesn’t really matter what it is, just something which is visible from your bed.

With this object in your line of sight, lie in bed and focus on it. Even as your eyes begin to feel heavy, continue to focus on the object, staring at it. Eventually you won’t be able to keep your eyes open, but you should be able to see it even now with your eyes closed. You might feel like sitting or standing, so go ahead; but don’t panic when you see your sleeping physical body lying in bed!

Don’t give up if you don’t succeed the first time you try these techniques. Practice makes perfect and if you just aren’t having luck with these methods, there are plenty of others you can try. Just stick with it and be patient and you’ll learn how to astral project sooner than you think.

It’s less important how you do it as that you are able to get the message to your subconscious mind that there’s nothing to fear about astral projection and that it’s perfectly fine for your astral body to leave the physical realm and travel. One good way to communicate with your subconscious is to repeat affirmations to yourself.

There are plenty of techniques which can make it easier to astral project and you should use whatever works best for you.

Hypnosis is something which a lot of people find helps them to astral project. Especially for beginners, a guided hypnosis session can help. Having an expert there to tell you what’s happening and what to do next at each step is valuable guidance.

There are also new audio technologies which can help you to astral project. One particularly interesting one involves something called binaural beats. Different frequencies are played in each of the listener’s ears, quickly producing the deeply relaxed state needed for astral projection.

It’s really not that hard to learn how to astral project. It’s simply a matter of practice. You already have this capacity, but you’ll need to work at it to develop this skill. Just like learning to ride a bike, it’s something you can already do, but some practice is needed to train yourself to do it well.

Learning How To Astral Travel

Astral projection is basically just another way of describing an out-of-body experience, but the two terms are not always synonymous with one another. What I mean by this is not all instances of astral projection are intentional; you might see several internet walk-throughs on how to execute AP with the complete intention of doing so. But, more often than not, astral projection occurs without the traveler actually consciously deciding to do so. What will be discussed here is a guide to astral projection, but more a guide to the various ways in which projection can occur spontaneously.

One of the most commonly known instances of involuntary projection occurs at the moment of death. Many people who were near the deceased before said individual passed on have reported seeing the nearly-departed person’s soul lifting out of the body - usually through the head - right before the person passed away. There have also been instances of souls projecting themselves into the homes of loved ones at the moment the owner of said soul has died in some way or another. This is to let the loved ones know what has happened.

Physical pain and illness may make cause the soul to project as well; the body may be in a decreased state of consciousness due to the physical impairment, which means a less firm grasp on the soul. In such a state of being, the astral body can depart the corporeal body with greater ease.

A similar effect can be experienced when under the influence of anesthesia the body is not conscious, so the soul may decide to take the opportunity to drift. This is why many people report looking down upon themselves being operated on, or knowing exactly what the doctors were discussing during the surgery that couldn’t have been known unless the patient was conscious.

Near-death experiences can also bring about out-of-body experiences nearly being run over by a car, or nearly drowning, for example. Even if you are technically ‘dead’ and brought back to life via procedures like CPR or heart massage, the soul may lift from the body until said earthly body is healthy enough for the soul to return to it.

And, of course, the most common manner in which the astral essence migrates from the physical body is when the person is asleep. Obviously, consciousness is limited, making the earthly body’s grasp on the soul not quite as strong. Just about everyone projects during their sleep, but they don’t remember doing so. If you’ve ever been awakened for seemingly no reason in the middle of your sleep and felt like you’ve been “jolted” awake, you were most likely projecting and your soul just had a rough landing when re-entering your body.

When You Should Try To Astral Project

Everyone is born with the ability to perform astral projection. The only difference between people who do it often and the ones who do not is practice. The art of astral projection is ancient in the same way as yoga or meditation and deserves respect. It is known by many different names and types. There are also various ways to accomplish astral projection.

Lucid dreaming is a form of astral projection. Lucid dreaming refers to the state of being aware that you are dreaming. Once you are aware that you are dreaming you can do anything you want in the dream. It is very easy to astral project when you are lucid dreaming. As soon as you realize you are dreaming you need to consciously say to yourself ‘I am dreaming.’

If you keep doing this, you will become conditioned to being aware when you are dreaming. It may be hard for a beginner to astral project with this random practice.

You need to believe that astral projection does work and is a reality. You have already experienced it but you do not realize it. Have you ever remembered a dream vividly upon awakening? The memory is so vivid that it feels as though you actually experienced it. This indicates you had an astral projection.

The key element to astral projection is to know that you can do it. This will help erase any fears or doubts that you may have that could be keeping you from being able to astral project.

Learn some good meditation and relaxation techniques; these will make it easier for you to astral project. Meditation will get your mind and body ready for the experience of astral projection. Start practicing relaxation and meditation routines you like to get prepared.

Find a quite place to relax, a comfortable chair or lie down, making sure you will not be interrupted. Clear your mind of all thoughts, picture a blank screen. Pay attention to your breathing, take slow deep breathes. Imagine all your troubles leaving your body when you breathe out. This will put you in a deeply relaxed state that will enable you to astral project.

You now need to go deeper into a state of altered consciousness. Just think about your breathing as you are now without worry or stress. Your mind is clear, you are taking deep breathes. Focus on breathing in through the nose and letting the airflow out through your mouth. You are breathing slower and deeper and getting more relaxed, now focus on relaxing your body.

Begin with your toes and move on up your body telling each part to relax. When you breathe out, tell each part of your body to relax. You can also tense the muscles up first and then relax them, whichever works best for you.

The best way to describe what you are going to feel is heavy it is going to feel as though all of the energy and tension is slipping away from each part of your body. You will know it when it happens. Once you have relaxed each part of your body it is time for you to move to the next step that is going to help you astral project.

You may feel like sleeping at this time, you need to avoid this. Many recommend repeating a command such as ‘I can fly, I can fly.’ You can say anything you want, just try to come up with something that will keep you from slipping into sleep.

An inactive mind gets bored easily; you may find yourself drifting into some random thoughts. Do not allow this to happen. If this does happen then you will need to start over. You need to keep repeating the phrase you select to keep your mind from wandering.

There are different ways to achieve a state of altered consciousness. You can repeat your chosen phrase or do it another way. Imagine a glowing light, and then imagine you entering it and transforming yourself into this body of light. This is referred to as the body of light technique.

When you begin to astral project three things will happen to let you know. You will have a feeling of movement. You will notice different colors and lights in front of you. Your eyes will be closed as you are still in your chair or bed. When you see the lights this is when you are passing into the astral zone. Voices will tell you to go on and encourage you or tell you to stop now as a warning. When you hear these voices, it means you have succeeded in astral projecting.

How To Astral Project Successfully

If you make the conscious choice to perform astral projection, you need to know that it cannot be done just anywhere. Don’t think you’ll be able to project while on a crowded, noisy train or at a baseball game. The atmosphere doesn’t have to exactly be established to certain specifications, but some essential aspects will need to exist in order for your concentration to remain steady enough to enter the hypnogogic (pre-sleep) state and eventually have your soul leave your body. Read over and follow the subsequent pre- astral projection steps in order to properly prepare your mind and body for the departure of the soul.

First, and most importantly, the place you intend to project from has to be quiet. If you know there will be auditory disturbances going on, either try to plan around them or choose a different spot to begin your meditation. Turn off or unplug your telephone, make sure the television and radio aren’t on, and let housemates or relatives know you do not wish to be bothered.

You’ll also need somewhere comfortable to sit, such as a bed or a cushioned chair. A bed would be ideal since you won’t have to cram yourself into the confines of a recliner, and it will be softer than the floor while allowing the room to spread out as the floor would.

Lighting must also be taken into consideration. Brightly-lit rooms will be too distracting, and complete darkness might prove to be a bit unsettling especially for a beginner. Therefore, it is best to maintain a reasonable medium between the two extremes and begin your meditation in a room with dim lighting. This can be achieved maybe by turning on one lamp and placing a sheet over it, or lighting some candles, or simply meditating around sunrise with the curtain drawn back.

Environment is not only limited to the room in which you’re situated it also applies to the clothing you are wearing. You need to be completely relaxed when projecting, so this means you should wear loose, relaxed-fit clothing or, if you’re confident you will not be disturbed and you are comfortable in such a state, do not wear clothing during the process. Tight-fitting clothing will cause your body to be tense, and this will inhibit your ability to fully relax or concentrate, and will make it much more difficult for your soul to exit your body.

Moreover, be sure that the temperature in the room is slightly warmer than what you are normally comfortable with. This is because the physical body will become cooler once projection begins, and a sensation of coldness that is too strong may jolt you out of projection and send your astral soul crashing back into your earthly body.

Some Precautions To Take When Astral Traveling

Just as there is not one universal method for executing projection, there’s also not just one collective experience that every astral traveler has or can relate to. Some people find astral projection to be the most exhilarating, amazing activity they’ve ever been a part of, while others have found it to be terrifying and even detrimental to their health. The results of individual astral projection experiences vary from one extreme to another simply because we do not all project the same or protect ourselves the same.

If one is referring to the involuntary OBEs, then it’s completely understandable why those might be considered frightening. Looking down upon your body in surgery or your mangled remains following a gruesome accident is most definitely not a positive experience. But what about the instances of astral projection where the traveler wills their way out of their body?

Astral projection is also a form of communication, and as with any sort of spiritual contact, there’s the risk of evil or mischievous spirits finding you and bothering you. Various sources on the subject offer conflicting viewpoints, so it is unclear at the moment whether or not a demon could follow someone’s astral being back to their mortal body and possess said person, or if these demons could inflict themselves upon the person’s home and haunt them.

Projection occurs on a slightly different plane than that of earthbound evil spirits, so if there is a risk of this happening, it is likely very small. Do keep in mind, also, that possession can only occur if the owner of the body allows it to happen. This will not stop evil spirits from approaching you while traveling, though; they can’t hurt you, but they’ll give you a good scare. It’s still good to be on guard anyway just in case, but not to the point where your fear hampers your endeavors; if it does, you may be too scared to relax enough to initiate projection.

It has been theorized by other astral travelers that when projection occurs during sleep, our spirit guides are aware of it and can be there to protect us. But when we attempt to project of our own accord, those guides might not know what’s going on and may not be there to offer their defense. Even if a sprite cannot follow you back to your body, the shock of seeing one while projecting could cause a shock to your senses that could harm you physically (like in the form of a heart attack).

Astral projection can be an amazing and enlightening experience, but caution must be taken; it’s not the process of projecting that you must fear, but the other spirits who may be out wandering and looking for a random person to harass. Saying a prayer of protection against evil and danger followed by calling upon your guides to watch over you is highly recommended to all spiritual travelers prior to entering the astral plane. As with any form of spiritual activity, caution should be exercised before engaging in said motion.
