Welcome to the forum!

Good luck with your projections--you can find a lot of helpful hints here.

I do not understand what it is that you can do. Could you explain.

Maybe your problem with "negs" and psychic attacks is that they are what is on your mind and what worries you. Your thoughts and emotions can influence your astral experiences. If you can change your focus and worries then you may not experience such things again. Even if you do encounter anything negative just try to remain calm and in control. Nothing can hurt you. The fact that you are trying to associate a non negative experience to something negative suggests to me that changing your focus and just accepting should help, instead of always worrying about psychic attacks.

Good Luck and welcome to the board.

Hey Mathias.

What is "skrying in the spirit" actually?

Sincerely,

Skrying in the spirit is when you enter the astral via the mind, e.g. you don´t leave you physical body.
You use a symbol as an entrance point, such as a visualized tarot card or a I Ching symbol or a rune, then you imagine yourself entering this symbol, like passing in-between curtains with the symbol on it, then with some experience, you will be able to enter the astral realm, sometimes you may find yourself in a room or a landscape, you may encounter beings, both lower and higher. Sometimes you may be hindered from exploring this astral realm, at least I have sometimes, which may point to there being astral wardens.

At the beginning you may experience just blurry black and white images, that are seen like on a small tv-screen (the one of your mind´s eye).

I have been quite succesful at this technique , and it seems a good way to train your imagination as well as a good primary step into the astral realm.

hey mathias, welcome aboard.

this is definetly the place you want to be if you want to do this right.  after all of the places on the net and the various books i've read, robert bruce and the rest of the team seem to have come up w/ the best book and site concerning any of this.  there isn't anything you can't find on here to help you progess.

maybe do a search on remote viewing and see what comes up.  it sounds somewhat similar to what you are referring to.

what kind of psychic attacks have you experienced?

[Mathias Jonsson]

Thank you.
On my account of my psychic attacks see the PSD forum, but briefly I can say it is neg-related, of the hybrid-type, that is someone using negs to attack me psychically.

Thanks for your interest.

Hello!

I have been active on the PSD forum but I thought that widen my field so to speak.
As to Astral Travel, I have´nt projected consciously but have had astral experiences that have been very vivid, both in terms of what I call "mental projection" (entering the astral via the mind), I think Golden Dawn called it "skrying in the spirit" and spontaneous trance experiences of the shamanic/dervish type.

I intend to begin doing astral projection, but as I´ve had trouble with psychic attacks, I have put these exercises on hold, though I once nearly projected, using a technique suggested by W.E. Butler (the great occultist/pupilk of Dion Fortune).

I seem to have karmic ties to shamanism, as I have had numerous shamanic experiences spontaneously. A psychic healer also told me so once.

The latest one (some days ago) I imagined just before going to sleep that I swam in a lake and  dove under the surface, downunder the entrance to the Underworld opened up and I swam into it, at first a bit difficult, but eventually I reached another astral scene, I was down in a cellar and saw a hooded figure with a black and white painted face, like one of those black metal musicians, approach - then the experience ended.
I dón´t know if this is related to my psychic attacks and problem with negs, but I didn´t feel any hostility or evil atmosphere at this point.
