how to not manifest things i don't want in the astral plane?

[spiritual86]

so last night i got the closest to astral projection than i ever have before, and i would have gotten out of body. but what happened was that ever since i read on here that someone saw a hallucinogenic imagery of a spider, i got scared to do it because i have an extreme fear and phobia of spiders. so last night i got to the vibrations and i even started to see out of my third eye with astral sight, and then i remembered about the spiders, and got scared. and i also remembered that whatever you think about will manifest in the higher densities/dimensions, and i absolutely did not want to manifest any spiders. i asked my spirit guides and higher self to not let me manifest spiders, but idk if that will work. any ideas on what i should do? i'm going to project again tonight and this time i know i will get to the same state, so i need to get over this. really looking to exploring and my goal is to travel to other universes! so thanks in advance

Awesome confidence with doing it again,

with the manifestations its also going too be a sub conscious thing where things will appear without much control on your part, think positivity and with good energy, and convince yourself there is no way you will see a spider

And you also have to try and deal with your phobia for spiders. Not totally because I hear and air of caution and curiosity doesn't hurt.
Good luck and safe travels.

Find something you want to do or see in the astral and give it all your attention. It helps to have some kind of mission in mind because it can help to  direct your concentration away from negative thoughts (spiders!).

During a lot of my projections things manifest like crazy for me without control. I think with practice though you van learn to control it, and just like everybody else above me said

Something I used to do (when I had fears) was to catalogue what I don't want to manifest, and then visualize it very vividly; that is, consciously manifest it in my imagination- and then it wouldn't happen when I projected, because it was no longer un/sub/conscious.

Hi,
As a remedy if they appear. Imagine having some pet that eats them with vigour. They show themselves and get eaten. You have made a safety net for yourself this way as your mind automatically knows that getting eaten is to be avoided so the spiders will not appear.
