More often than not, the majority have heard the term as astral projection. Perhaps they heard it from a movie, book or an enlightened associate.

Few people though understand that astral projection is a real event, and that it is something that everyone can do. Chances are very high that you have astral projected and didn’t even realize it.

Lets start by understanding what astral projection actually is.

Basically, astral projection is a persons ability to leave their body. Everyone has this ability, and we all do this at night when we are asleep.

When our bodies are at rest and our conscious minds largely disengaged, our subconscious remains active. You may not remember doing so, but you have almost certainly had some experience with astral projection.

Many children actually astral project without being aware of what they are doing. It happens usually when the body is relaxed or even when they are asleep. Time and distance do not mean anything when talking about astral projection. The astral body can travel without these considerations.

You may be asking at this point what is meant by th astral body? The meaning of the term astral body is the body’s invisible duplicate, also called the ethereal body. It is where all of our wishes and feelings are stored in our body. I bet you are wondering how the astral body can leave and then also return to the physical body? There is this silver cord that connects the physical body with the astral body.

This silver cord was connected the first time the astral body entered the physical body and can not be severed until the astral body leaves the physical body for the last time, death. It is the silver cord that prevents the astral body from straying away.

Often times the question of where the astral body actually travels will come up with discussing astral projection. The astral plane is the realm of the astral body and it is through this plane, which consists of many levels that the astral body travels. The astral plane has several different theories that surround it. The first is that the astral plane is an alternate dimension of reality which overlays the physical. Another is that it happens to come in contact with the physical world through vibrations, which puts the astral plane on another wavelength separating it from the physical world. No matter what particular description is used to explain the existence of an astral plane, experts in the field agree that there are multiple levels to this alternate plane.

It is normal at this stage to ask if it is safe to do astral projection or is it dangerous. The answer yes it is safe but there can also be dangers. We have already stated that everyone is capable of doing astral projection. We have also explained that the astral body cannot leave the physical body without returning to it. As with all things in your life you need to keep your wits about you while doing this. This means you need to have strong cognitive abilities so that you can think clearly about where you desire to go and do while doing astral projection.

The dangerous part about astral projection is when an individual does this when their minds aren’t right. A person should not do astral projection under the influence of drugs or alcohol because they may wind up in some very bad locations. These bad locations would be located on the astral plane’s lower levels.

You should know where you want to go and only astral project when you are in the proper frame of mind to do so. You want to have control over where your astral body goes and what it does.

When you prepare yourself properly, beforehand you can train yourself to astral project very quickly.

Many individuals prefer to astral project alone in their own home. However, numerous professionals in the field of astral projection teach various methods to help others gain control and enjoy an enriched experience. You might even like to try both methods of learning how to astral project.

There are resources out there which can be of assistance as you learn astral projection. You can find many books on the subject and there are also many websites which can get you started. There are also some useful aids you can try such as astral projection hypnosis recordings.

It will get you fully relaxed as well as going through the stages with you. The advantage of this rather than a professional session is that you can keep playing the recording several times until your subconscious mind gets the message that it is perfectly okay for you to leave your body.

A new audio technology called binaural beats can also help you to begin astral projecting quickly. These are slightly different frequencies which are played into each ear. These frequencies relax you and allow you to easily attain the mental state needed for astral projection.

Do not be discouraged if you are unable to astral project in the beginning.

It is important to keep in mind that you are simply remembering a skill that you already possess and have used at some point in your past.

Are you still not so sure? Think about the last time you dreamt you were flying or felt as if you had fallen. It feels similar to flying when the astral body moves throughout the astral plane. When the astral body returns to the physical body the sensation is much like falling and landing.

Astral projection really exists! Take time to tune your natural abilities and you will see that anyone has the abilities to perform this and reap the benefits from it.
