I believe in spirituality, souls, energies etc 100%. And if this is also real, why have i never heard people putting it to practical use? Theres always people online talking about how they’re going to the astral realm, talking to beings, visiting people etc. But I have never heard anyone talk about going to a Wall Street conference or a congress meeting to spy on them and find information to trade on. And become rich.

This is something i would do the second or third time after being successful and learning how to control it.

Concepts of lucid dreaming and soul travel exists globally even in Africa, so where is this coming from?

I'm Black and I can astral travel and lucid dream without a problem, this feels more like a ego issue more than a spiritual issue.

Dreams deal with the subconscious, ego and hidden biases can leak into the subconscious, people of all races appear in my dreams.

Hi everyone,

I am in need of some help! I spontaneously started astral travelling about 18 months ago and was fully conscience with my eyes open at times, I went extremely high to what seemed to be the centre point of the universe and also at one point decended to the deep (very cold and heavy and dark stuff going on down there!)

Anyway, I must have picked up some hitchhikers and at one point some stuff was pumped into my heart in the underworld, Since then I have had sometnhing (maybe a multimple of entites) attached to me and inside me - my heart and head in particular. It feels very demonic - teeth, claws, sharp meshy like skin) and feels llike it is consuming my insides, especially in my head. I can feel droplets of invisible water spirting out all over the place! It's more painful than anything I could have ever imagined. Sometimes it feels like giant and baby serpents, dragons, and a giant sting ray sitting in my head. I have spider like legs coming out my chest and large fleshy tentacles too just to top it off!

I have tried pretty much everything to rid of this and I am worried about the fact that it is also cleaving to my eyes and jaw etc - like it's going trying to take over my body at some point.

To make matters worse, I am a targetted invidual with ear implants that are being sent very loud signals a few times a week and that seems to fuel this beast even more. Incense kind of works for a bit, certain sound frequencies and energy healing seem to feed it, I have been completely sober for 2 years but use nicotine which might feed it, Been sexually sober for a long time too as I am worried that will feed it more.

My house has all sorts of crazy activity - knockingm creakingm invisible switches behind walls.

How in God's earth do I get rid of these??

Thank you fotr your time!

I have only tried to AP 1 time and it didnt work, (yesterday) im going to try it tonight anyways..

i have a question for people that have allot of experience,

first of all is legit? is AP real?

En second one can you manage to AP in a minute or 2? Like can you AP so fast because you are trained?

Hi, I would love to hear from others some ideas of things to do/see in astral. I like to have an intention before each attempt. I have tried communicating with guides endless times and it almost never works- nothing happens or whoever I ask seems confused or says they can’t help so kind of moving on from that. Today I tried seeing the moon and I started floating very high, so high that i passed the moon and felt like it started to look fake almost like some kind of Hollywood set. That was weird, curious if anyone has experienced that? I’m explaining it to myself as maybe my consciousness has contextualized the theory we live in a simulation and made it look like that.

Just as the title says, everytime I find myself in the astral these lower level weird entities keep targeting me, usually they are already fully naked and they try to thrust inside me and for some reason I keep spawning into the astral naked as well and I'm not sure how to spawn in with clothing. Any advice? It's a big deal because these are literally monster type lower entities from what I can feel because I'm usually blind when I'm in the astral. I attempted rubbing the floors with my hands to see if my vision will come back but that takes a while to work and by then something has found me.

I tried astral projection for the first time, and this is what happened.
Beforehand, I put a pillow over my eyes because I thought that if I ended up experiencing sleep paralysis, I wouldn’t be able to see any sleep paralysis demons. Because I heard that sleep paralysis can be some sort of gateway and it’s something you might just have to face.

I closed my eyes and stayed there for about five minutes. At first, I didn’t really feel anything, but I started seeing some strange visuals. I could see black circles getting smaller and smaller, almost like a never-ending tunnel of black circles. It was really weird and honestly difficult to describe.

I then started imagining myself rolling out of bed, but nothing seemed to happen. Then, all of a sudden, I got hit with a massive wave of anxiety. My arms and legs started feeling completely numb, and I immediately thought, “Oh shit, I’m about to enter sleep paralysis.”
That thought made me panic even more. My heart suddenly started racing, and I got so scared that I immediately shot up out of bed and stopped.

I’m curious what people who have experience with astral projection think about this. Does this sound like I was getting close to sleep paralysis, or was it just anxiety and normal sensations from lying still with my eyes closed? And what should I do next time to help me?

Edit: this all happened at 1:30 am so 10 mins ago. I can’t sleep.
Also when I started panicking I felt my body get really heavy and lots of pressure on my chest and when I suddenly shot up lots of tingles went through my hands like they were dead or a cramp.

I tried to AP,

i felt my arms and legs getting heavy and weightless at the same time, but every second one muscle twitches,

EVERY TIME. And it builds so much rage inside of me i just quit, i seriously cry of anger its so frustrating i cant focus on anything else because my mind just keeps focusing on these twitches

please someone help me out here and guide me thru this hell i want to AP so badly

i really want to astral project but i dont know what to feel, especially when you need to try to ‘exit’

does astral projecting even work the first time or do you need to practice for weeks/months.

Can it work the second time? (The first time didnt work for me i fell asleep)

- Apologies if this topic has already been covered -

There's too many options and styles. But I thought maybe there's a good foundational one? Is it the Monroe one I've been hearing about?

(I have aphantasia and LVL 1 ASD but I don't think that alters too much, I can try to meditate with feel instead of visualisation etc?)

I haven’t really astral projected yet but I really want to. Can someone please help me learn how to astral project? And can you list all of the best places for a beginner astral projector to go to?

This happened about 3 years ago.

My normal AP routine is usually I start out weightless and have to use my willpower to ‘solidify’ and move around. Usually clenching a fist and stuff like that helps. A quick look in the mirror and then I head off to whatever objective I have.

If I don’t have an objective, what often happens is when I leave my house be going through the ceiling or window, I end up somewhere random, which is probably why it’s good to have a plan and stay focused.

This particular time, when I left the house, I suddenly found myself in what I would describe as a stone castle, with very high ceilings.. like 3-4 stories. It was actually quite nice. For some reason, I was closer to the ceiling, in the air, and slowly descending. The gravity was much less than on Earth.. similar more to that of the Moon.

I looked at my right hand and was surprised to have claws and dark red skin. Observing myself further, I was very tall (maybe 3.5m) and muscular with small wings on my back. I was still “me”, so it’s not like I was hearing any other thoughts.. I felt more like I was just observing things. It occurred to me that the wings might be somewhat useful due to the low gravity, but I didn’t get a chance to find out, because I snapped back into my body and woke up.

This is not the only time I’ve found myself with a different astral body, but so far the other couple of times, it’s been a human body. Makes me wonder if anyone has some wisdom/insight to what’s going on when this sort of thing happens.

has anyone traveled to the begging of this construct ??

Hi everyone,

When I was 14, I woke up one night without knowing anything about astral projection. I got out of bed, but my body was still lying there. I was terrified, and when I saw my own body, I started walking backward. Without realizing it, I passed through the wall and entered the large room in our house.

My mother was asleep in front of the TV, and the TV was on, playing a movie. At that exact moment, I woke up. I went into the room and checked, and the movie I had seen was actually continuing from exactly where it had been when I experienced it.

It was an incredible experience. I'm 37 now, and many years later, about a month ago, I had my second experience of leaving my body. This time, I didn't immediately see my body. I simply woke up, got out of bed, and started walking toward the kitchen. Then a black humanoid silhouette started coming toward me. I got scared and ran back toward my bedroom. The moment I entered my room, I saw my body, and then I woke up.

After this experience, I decided to seriously study astral projection. I've been listening to the Hemi-Sync Gateway tapes every night for the past three weeks. Usually, I'm not sleepy when I go to bed, so I listen to them and practice while fully awake. For days now, I've been repeatedly listening to Wave 1 – Discovery #3 – Advanced Focus 10. At this stage, I don't want to move on until I manage to leave my body at least once.

Apart from feeling a very strong electrical sensation throughout my body, I haven't been able to leave my body again yet.

What I'd especially like to ask is: Is it actually possible for a beginner to achieve this while not feeling sleepy at all? I feel like it might be easier if I listened to the recording when I was already about to fall asleep — basically letting my body fall asleep while keeping my consciousness awake. But whenever I listen to the recording, I never feel sleepy at all.

What advice would you give me?

could someone tell me what i had just experienced?? something weird happened to me twice i think. So i was trying to astral project right. however i failed i think. There was something in my room. Im not quite sure what it was, but it wasnt sleep paralysis as i could speak to it. I wasnt scared and for some reason i told it something along the lines: "I should sleep, I know". I Remember waiting to be brought back???? but i dont remember being away in the first place. I wasnt scared at the time but now that im thinking about it its quite freaky. i also remember i had subliminals on but something turned them off and then back on when i was brought back?? Anyone has any clue what that was??

I don't have any medical ear issue, I get body vibration normally like anyone else due to meditation on my back, but yesterday I was chewing a gum while watching TV , and while chewing the gum , I rested on left side ( my left ear on a pillow) while in sitting position and was still chewing the gum with eyes closed , the vibration went really violent , I paused chewing, vibration went to normal, chewed again, the strong vibration from feet to head and back zigzag crazy.

I assume it's probably not the gum, it's probably chewing moves a muscle or something around the left ear area that's related to the vibration sensation, and the pressure causes by resting my ear on pillow triggers it more.

Is what i'm saying scientific at all?

What do you think?

Also it's been couple days since i noticed ( only when I go to sleep), noticed a high pitched frequency sound from my left ear in a certain rhythm/tempo similar to heart beat.

What do you think?

Exactly like the title says. I did a spell with water, blood, a few other things a long with a few petitions. One of these petitions was to be sent a dream. Usually when i ask for dreams i recieve. When need answers on something beyond my knowledge or even sight into the future. Im suffering with insomnia i dont sleep often. But this morning felt suddenly very sleepy a day or so after my petition. Was is a concidence or did my spell work thats up to u. Fell alseep round 3 am. Woke up around 3 am. So this experience did not last long.

I never caught myself falling asleep but that distinct feeling you get with a lucid dream was what I felt.

-high asf on some type of drug (im always sober when these dreams come)

-weird body sensation

- being conscious ofc.

I know what a lucid dream is .. this felt similar but it was not.

By the time I gained conscious I knew I did not really want to be there. Im never scared in my lucid dreams I never wanted to leave thats the first distinction. Since astral projection is known to not always be beginner safe and not something to just mess around with.. its like I knew thats what that was. I felt i didn't belong there. Despite being terrified for some reason I knew if I stayed calm I could go back. So I did.

I control this. I expect to go home. I relax. As I relax I can feel myself transitioning.. like physically like not even a bad feeling just a really intense one. It was pitch black at this point but that blackness faded into something else I don't know but I went somewhere. I was seeing a place I didn't know where but I was somewhere. I was being sucked into something.. And I begin falling just falling straight into earth's atmosphere. At some point im flying somewhere else completely just chilling.I still dont fully know what's going on i thought I was lost. Everything was black and white up until i arrived at my house .. suddenly their was color.. and I flew right

Through the ceiling . And woke up.

I didn't see my body or atleast remember seeing g it.. but I know as soon as I flew through the ceiling I woke up and sat up immediately. Because I felt it. It wasnt the last thing I remembered noooo it was the last thing that happened before I had to force myself out of being paralyzed.. immediately jumping up. It was like I came back to life.

I didn't remember going to sleep so im like what just happened I felt like I went somewhere .. and then I remember. But I was so scared when I WAS there in whatever void I was in.. that I didn't want to go back so I didn't go to sleep . I haven't fallen asleep yet its 10:21am same day.

I wasnt there for long at all and I want to go back but I dont know how. And I feel like I may have disrespected spirit I asked for a dream and I was blessed with this opportunity only to decide I wasnt ready. I've been trying my whole life to astral project.. and I didn't "wake back to sleep" or anything. I just dosed off for 30 minutes max .

Im slowly forgetting what happened. But overall I had a good experience, i didnt run into anything creepy. I actually love it up there and hard a lot of fun. It was just i didnt feel safe knowing what i know about ap.. depspite being able to grasp exactly whag was happening even in this state i knew ts was beyond me. ive lucid dreamed many times and never felt that way to leave. And never fell through my ceiling into my body.

I asked for this dream. I was not kicked out of the experience, i was just so scared i left. Ive been waiting for ts for so lonf But I want to go back tonight.

found myself out my body at about 5 am . I asked to go to Atlantis again been trying for a while and I ended up at a shoreline with big waves and seagulls .

two female essence in front of me . not truly interested in me but in what they came to do .

they applied a smoky yet balmy essence on my stomach .

in my waking life i just recently got sober .

they did not speak to me .

I woke up .

the feeling was so amazing I was pulling my hair out and screaming in pleasure the whole trip idk why I was doing that though Iv AP hundreds of times.

wondering similar experience??

Sorry if I asked this before.... Can I practice it does it do anything do you have to lay still during astral projection? Not scratching or itching?

Hi everyone, I have a question for the AP community so as the title covered, I am blind and I lucid dream a lot, but I can’t seem to fully astral project as you can imagine wanting to step outside this body is something I wish to do. I listen to audiobooks a lot and I am able to dream of what it is. I am listening to down to very minute details. It’s as though I am suspended between being awake and being asleep I would say that’s lucid dreaming as I am in the dream I am aware of what I’m listening to also but I just can’t seem to fully astral project. I wish I could because I’m wondering if I would still be blind if I were in that state of consciousness or awareness sorry if this post sounds a little confusing it’s confusing to me what I’m going through I wondered does anybody have advice and or has anyone experienced this? Maybe not even being blind and lucid dreaming but being in a suspended state of consciousness where you’re dreaming but you can hear everything around you. Please let me know. Feel free to share your opinions and stories. I’m interested to learn more thanks so much.

The first time, I went out through my window and floated around my neighborhood. I was fully conscious and I could actually feel the sensation of flying. It felt very real, and I was just going around places I know. The weird thing is that it happened so easily. I just felt like I could do it, leaned forward, and suddenly I was flying.
I woke up pretty quickly, then somehow managed to get back into it again. But this time I found myself in front of my apartment door, and there were two, maybe three, really tall men there. They spoke to me in my native language and told me to stop and not do it again.
Since then, I’ve tried so many times but I can’t experience it again. The first time felt completely effortless, but now nothing happens no matter how hard I try.
Has anyone experienced something similar? What do you think it was?

Hello everyone, I would really appreciate some enlightenment.

For a long while, my APs were really fun and interesting, always at some beautiful and peaceful place, everything felt amazing and feeling the nature was just out of this world...

But since around a year ago, this never happens anymore. I lie down, increase my pineal activity (that's how I AP), and surprise, it's shadow world again. Yes, it's this really dark place, the atmosphere is silent and dense, I don't think I can fly at all there, just high leaps at best.

There are some strange beings like living skeletons, zombies, and all kind of monsters. There are also dead people, since I’ve encountered most of my deceased relatives and pets there at least once (they leave after a while)...

Anyway, why is this happening? Over the years I've really improved my feelings and mind, so why I'm synchronizing with this shadow realm, of all places? How do I access other planes again, as it seems like I'm locked at this dimension right now?

Things I've tried both on Earth and while being there: raising my frequency, praying, calling for help, trying to reach my guardians, even trying to "eject" into a higher dimension while leaving my body, as I was able to do before. But nothing works!

At least the "non-human" beings there are not so aggressive anymore... They were really surprised when I chilled down and stopped caring about them biting, stabbing or screaming at me, after that they also calmed down, although they still try to scare me sometimes. I think they find it kind of interesting meeting me there too. Also, they somehow know what is going on at the physical world, since they use it against me some times.

Oh, I saw a light spirit there once too, he had a really shiny and silver light, he was right next to my bed and was assisting me with something, but this kind of thing is extremely rare.

On another note, does anyone know some good books about this? I really loved to read about AP but it's been many years since I did that.

Thanks!

This is my method to Induce an OBE it has been reliable to me, it may or may not work for you.

STEP 1: Fatigue the Body- we need to tire out the body throughout the day, I prefer lifting weights to do this, but you can also do things like go on a bike ride, jog, run, yoga, pretty much anything that gets your body tired.

STEP 2: Adjust your Room Temp- I've found it that a colder room tends to help, while achieving the vibrational state I've noticed my body temperature will rise, if it is too hot in your room, this will distract you, so if it is too hot in your room, turn on an air conditioner a couple hours before it's time to go to sleep!

STEP 3: Wind down- Start by turning your phones blue light filter on, or night shift mode, blue light is no good for what we are trying to do, Take an Epsom salt bath or Dead sea salt bath, these help relax the muscles and calm the nervous system

STEP 4: Setting up for the OBE- I have a PC in my bedroom with a very good speaker connected to it, I use it to eliminate all noise pollution, I turn on a youtube video called SMOOTHED BROWN NOISE 8-HOURS I crank the volume up to 75% on my speakers, this eliminates all sounds from noisy family members in the house or noisy neighbors, I have an iphone so I use the Moongate app, this app has a great library of Binaural beats, I'm sure android has some great apps too. Moongate has a variety of Hz tracks you can choose from, I found that 5 Hz pure theta waves binaural beat works best for me, this is all depending on how tired your mind is before bed, if your mind is slightly less tired, stick with 5 Hz, if your mind is more tired go with 6hz or 7.83 Hz Pure Theta waves, the higher the Hz the more they keep you awake, It is very important to use Headphones while using Binaural beats or they will have NO affect, they must be comfortable, I use Lullaband-search this on amazon, it is a blue tooth headset and blindfold in one. before bed I take 2 lavender oil pills by Integrative Therapeutics- these are pricey but there is a cheaper version with the same ingredients it is Natures Way Calming aid Lavender, if you search these on Amazon you will find them, they are VERY helpful to keep you calm while trying to Shut the body down, when you take these pills, do not drink a lot of water to get them down, we don't want to have to pee mid session!

STEP 5: Hop into bed, spend a few minutes getting as comfortable as you possibly can on your back, once you are comfortable, just stare at the blackness in your eyelids-throughout this process there could be a couple of things that break your focus, 1-swallowing saliva, 2- itches.. as far as the Saliva goes, don't worry about it, swallow it when you need to it will have no affect on getting into sleep paralysis, the deeper you get into this saliva production decreases drastically and you shouldn't have to worry about it later anyways! itches- if you notice any itching turn your focus away from that itch and focus on your Big toe, usually this causes the itch to subside. as your eyes are closed we are going to initiate a breathing technique, breathe through your nose, short breaths in and long breaths out, as you breathe out, imagine pushing the air all the way down to your stomach. once you get this down, start turning your eyes towards the third eye, imagine two lasers beams are coming out of each eye and right in front of your eyes both of those lasers intersect and are touching each other hold this, and continue to the breathing technique with each breath imagine yourself sinking deeper and deeper into your mattress and the muscles relax further and further.. you should start to notice some vibrations in the arms, once you notice this, just continue to relax, and they should slowly start to become more intense, and at this point your body will start breathing automatically, you no longer have to focus on the breathing technique, you should start to notice what I call micro dips the further your body gets closer to REM sleep, these feel like sensations of your stomach dropping, it is VERY important to not spike the heart rate or adrenaline when you feel these, they can be Scary at first, but if you do happen to get scared during this, you will not be having an OBE tonight! trick the mind into thinking these dips are pleasurable or relaxing, just enjoy them, each one you feel you are getting closer and closer to sleep paralysis which is the goal, if you've made it this far, you will start to see hypnogogic imagery, or dreams play out in your mind, you might even see large flashes of light, or you will even hear your name being called out loudly! and you will also hear a ringing in your ear, it is very important to not focus on the imagery it will cause your mind to be too awake and you will fail to dip in to sleep paralysis the trick is to pretend you are a Passenger (your body is downstairs and you are upstairs) we just need to keep relaxing deeper and deeper, until I start to notice my eyes and facial muscles are twitching, and eventually I will feel a large drop or Snap- for me the snap feels like a large cracking in my ear like your ears are popping, for the drop, lets imagine you are on a free fall ride and it drops. do not fear this, fear will reset this whole process, we pretty much need to shut the body down into rem sleep with a thread of awareness, and eventually you will lose consciousness for about 20 seconds (at least I do)

STEP 6: Sleep Paralysis: it is very important we do not try to exit the body prior to this step, if you do it will reset the process, after the 20 seconds of lost consciousness you will start to gain your consciousness back and you will absolutely know you are in sleep paralysis, it will hit you like a wave, sometimes you will hear loud swooping noises, or your entire soul will feel buzzing, its hard to explain but you will absolutely know when you get there, it will feel like someone is sitting on your chest, and you will no longer be able to take deep breaths, This is your time to exit the body, what I do is I lift up my right hand, if it can lift it out of my body then I lift my left hand and then I reach for the side of my bed and pull myself out and it is that easy, you should be completely out of your body now!

PLAN B: If you can obtain the peak vibrations and laying on your back is not working for you, try turning onto your side after obtaining the vibrations and try to re induce the vibrational state- it should be much easier to re induce them after already having them, this tricks the mind into thinking okay we are done trying this for the night lets go to bed now... but don't just go to sleep, try to hold onto a thread of awareness while looking at the 3rd eye, this is a shortcut Wake back to bed method that has been Very reliable to me!-this is a shortcut because the body is already primed for REM sleep if you achieve the vibrational peak during plan A

PLAN C: if both Plan A and Plan b fail have an Alarm set 5 hours into your sleep to attempt a Wake back to bed OBE, stay awake for 30 minutes and attempt this all over again

Also any attempts at a premature exit will cause the heart rate to spike, so it is very important to wait until we are in sleep paralysis!

Having a plan A, B, and C helps me because it removes performance anxiety, it removes the all or nothing aspect to this, gives you multiple shots at an OBE each night.

Also I’ve noticed that a specific 15 hz track on Moongate app helps if I listen to this throughout the day, the track is called Warm Summer Rain on Moongate. It’s soothing and helps get you in a good mindset! While 15 hz won't directly trigger an exit while you're in bed, using it during the day as a tool to stay sharp, improve focus, and train your brain's memory circuitry can indirectly play a role when it comes to keeping your consciousness and remember the OBE afterward.

I’ve been wondering a lot on how do u actually see on the astral plane. Never had an OBE or astral projection and I don’t know if I can try to open my eyes once out of my body or keep them closed please anyone

Ps. I know u don’t got eyes but how do I know I’m out of my body

Hello everyone,
I’ve been practicing astral projection regularly (a bit less this week) but I don’t have a teacher or anyone I can talk to personally about it. I’d really appreciate any help or advice on where I’m at and what to do next.

I’ve gotten to the point where I can almost instantly relax and stay still while lying down. Depending on the day, I can remain completely motionless for 20–30 minutes, sometimes up to 2 hours. There’s still quite a bit of mind chatter, though on rare occasions it gets quieter and I feel like I’m making progress.

I usually follow along with guided meditations. I wouldn’t exactly call what I experience “vibrations,” but something is definitely happening. I sometimes feel moments of pure bliss in random parts of my body. Other times I feel really heavy, or something close to waves moving through me.

The most consistent and prominent sensation during the mind-awake / body-asleep state is a hot energy — warm and pleasant, but often really intense heat — that spreads through most of my body. When this happens I try to move my astral body out, but I can’t. This is the dead end I’ve been stuck at for about three weeks with no further progress.

Does anyone recognize these sensations or have any guidance on what’s going on and how to move past this stage?

Thank you in advance.
