There is a natural interest in astral travel. I wrote about it in an earlier blog post and will expand a little more on it here. Please note that when I write about astral travel or astral projection, I write from my personal experiences, and perhaps your method of projecting may be different from mine but as long as a positive end result is achieved, it’s all good.
It is not like I can go to bed and decide that ‘oh I’m going to do some astral traveling tonight”; just like how we cannot decide what we will dream about when we go to sleep, neither can we decide, to a large extent, if and when we astral travel.
For me, it happens mostly when I go to sleep early enough and then wake, typically around 3 am. I engage in some meditation for about 30 minutes or so which may or may not result in me being able to quiet my mind, but which seems to prepare for any trip that may happen.
The positioning of the body is important. I usually lie on the side and relax my body entirely, allowing my mind to enter a semi-wake state. Then I wait. If thoughts come, they come, if they don’t, they don’t, I do nothing but watch them.
After a few minutes, you begin to feel the energy shifting. It starts in your toes and travels up to the crown. There is no mistaking the sensation. It is powerful and heavy and the physical body enters a state of paralysis. The first time this happened to me, I panicked and lost it. The next time I decided to let go, I was gone. There is this rush of energy, an energy so strong that sometimes you feel the need to brace for its onslaught. It courses up your body as a powerful force and rushes to your crown. I always experience a bright blinding light and very loud noise; it literally feels like a train rushing along its track. When the energy enters the crown, the light energy may change colour from yellow to white to purple to blue to fiery orange. In my last experience, I saw a ring of blazing fire encompassing my entire crown area. Then the lift off is experienced; similar to the feeling of a plane at the point when the wheels leave the tarmac. You then float away to wherever the travels are for that night.
One of the things that I did recently was that just before ‘lift off’, I set the intention of where I wanted to go. I ended up in that exact place.
We will continue this in a future blogpost.
Stay tuned for astral travel 3.0
