Meditative Projection need not take years....

[PurplAstrlMagma]

I read the FAQ and I've been trying to read the permanent topics, but I keep running across the phrase "...projecting from meditation can take years to work...." Well, depending on how you meditate, I guess.

It's important to realize that you have an energy-body and can make more at any time.
It's important to understand that there are organs in your energy-body, called Chakra-s, part of whose function is to link and bond your energy-body into your physical body. Fatigue, stress, extreme hunger, and near-death intensity fainting can "short-circuit" your Chakra-s, but such are not to be recommended for regular practice, rather you should learn to cleanse your Chakra-s, clear out your aura, energize and unlock your Chakra-s, create a 'small' energy body to practice transferring your consciousness into, and then do that practice. Please note that this doesn't work very well when attempted out of sequence. Once you are adept with the 'small', you can create a full Astral Body (or use the one you already have) and begin full-on projections.

The technique I use is called "The Fountain". I ran across it in Llewellyn's Guide to Astral Projection, but I have 'tweaked' it over the years to be more effective to me. I am a Pagan. There are parts in this (where the female Spirit of the planet considers your existence) that might not be suitable for those that have other beliefs.

May I ask how you know all these things as fact? such as, "you have an energy-body and can make more at any time."
or
"there are organs n your energy-body called chakra-s"

Im not saying its not true, just wondering how you came to those conclusions.

Thanks

There are a number of steps involved. You might need to read over this a number of times before you begin to use it, or you might do some of the steps as whole projects separately until you are adept at them, then combine them into a whole sequence. Note that the placement of the Chakra-s are according to the 'developing Chakra-s' {as related in Essential Reiki}.

Step 1 = Create Astral Spark,
Step 2 = Astral Spark becomes line, disc, ball,
Step 3 = Astral ball copy placement,
Step 4 = Astral Spark makes sky-funnel,
Step 5a = Sky Energizing top Chakra,
Step 5b = Sky Energizing forehead Chakra,
Step 5c = Sky Energizing throat Chakra,
Step 5d = Sky Energizing heart Chakra,
Step 5e = (skipping the Solar Plexus),
Step 5f = Sky Energizing belly Chakra,
Step 5g = Sky Energizing groin Chakra,
Step 5h = Sky Energizing foot Chakra,
Step 6 = rooting,
Step 7 = Earth Energizing all your Chakra-s,
Step 8 = Cleansing your Aura,
Step 9 = Balancing Earth-Sky Energies.

After adept at all of that and ready for Astral Projection steps, change to:
Step 5e = Activating the Solar Plexus,
Step 9 = Creating an Astral miniature,
Step 10 = transferring your consciousness into the mini,
Step 11 (various travels, looks, and validation excercizes),
Step 12 = returning your consciousness and dissolving your mini.

After adept at that, change to:
Step 5e = Activating the Solar Plexus,
Step 9 = Releasing your full Astral Body,
Step 10 = transferring your consciousness
Step 11 (various travels,)
Step 12 = returning


Step 1 = Create Astral Spark,

Stand relaxed in an area where you won't be disturbed for about ten minutes or so, with your eyes closed. Become aware that in a moment or two you are going to snap your fingers, and when you do a 'point' of Astral energy is going to come into existence, as small as a needle-point and as bright as a star, just because you 'command' it to come into existence, because you expect it to. Do expect it to.
Open your eyes, snap your fingers! Watch how the spark moves around as you move the focus of your eyes, or 'tell' it to, or expect it to.

Step 2 = Astral Spark becomes line, disc, ball,

Focus your eyes on your right hand, and have your Astral Spark travel in a line between your thumb and forefinger, and as you inhale it travels faster, bouncing back and forth, exhale...inhale again and it goes faster, faster and faster and faster until it becomes a 'solid line' of Astral Light. Pull your hand away and watch the line of light hover there, because you expect it to. In a moment you are going to snap your fingers again, and when you do, the line of light will start spinning end-to-end. Snap! Watch it spin slowly, and as you inhale, it spins faster, exhale...inhale again and it goes faster, faster and faster and faster until it becomes a 'solid disc' of Astral Light. Pull your hand away and watch the disc of light hover, because you expect it to. In a moment you are going to snap your fingers again, and when you do, th disc of light will start spinning sideways. Snap! Watch it spin slowly, and as you inhale, it spins faster, exhale...inhale again and it goes faster, faster and faster and faster until it becomes a 'solid ball' of Astral Light.

I don't "do" fact. I've tried, and it is evident that my validation process is not up to par with the validation processes of various scientists, university students, and semanticists that have accosted me over the years. I do personal gnosis, and as I explained in my own introduction (Grrrrrrreetings Entities!), I usually sound quite authoritarian, but I do not mean it. All I am relating is of my personal gnosis, and I actively disbelieve that there is any One True Way for everyone to believe and follow. I share what I have discovered works for me not to convert people to doing exactly the same thing that I do, but to inspire them to try different things and discover what works for them.

I hope this helps you.

Step 3 = Astral ball copy placement,

Holding the Astral Ball you have just made in your right hand, grasp it with your left, inhale, and just because you expect it to, as you exhale pull with your left hand, and pull a 'copy' of that ball of light out of it, then place that into the top of your head. Pull out another copy, and put it into your forehead. Pull out another copy and put it into the base of your throat. Pull out another copy and put it into the middle of your chest. (5e*) Pull out another ball and put it into your belly. Pull out another copy and put it up under your groin area. Lean down and put the original into the ground or floor between your feet.

Step 4 = Astral Spark makes sky-funnel,

Make another Astral Spark, and turn the focus of your eyes and imagination far up into the sky above you, allowing the Astral Spark to follow. When it feels like you are imagining the view from about three miles up, move your focus about one and half miles Northward, and then begin circling above your physical body, going North to East to South to West to North (clockwise looking down at your physical body). As you breathe, your Astral Spark completes this circle faster and faster, becoming a 'solid ring' of light. Then, as you inhale, lines come spiraling down the edges to the ball in the top of your head. All kinds of energies are passing thru this funnel of Astral Light which you have created: Sunlight, Moonlight, Starlight, Cosmic Rays, microwaves, Radio Waves, cellphone communications, electricity, waves of magnetic energy, gravity, etc. As they pass into the funnel, and as you inhale, they all become Astral Energy (Prana, Orgone), and come cascading down into your Chakra-system:

Step 5a = Sky Energizing top Chakra,

As you inhale, the converted energies of the Sky come cascading down into the ball in the top of your head, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts spinning; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts glowing, now it is completely full. Inhale again, more comes down, and it overfills, overflows down into the ball in your forehead...

Step 5b = Sky Energizing forehead Chakra,

As you inhale, the converted energies of the Sky come cascading down to overflow the ball in the top of your head, into the ball in your forehead, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts spinning; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts glowing, now it is completely full. Inhale again, more comes down, and it overfills, overflows down into the ball in your throat...

Step 5c = Sky Energizing throat Chakra,

As you inhale, the converted energies of the Sky come cascading down to overflow the ball in the top of your head, then to overflow the ball in your forehead, and into the ball in your throat, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts spinning; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts glowing, now it is completely full. Inhale again, more comes down, and it overfills, overflows down into the ball in your chest...

Step 5d = Sky Energizing heart Chakra,

As you inhale, the converted energies of the Sky come cascading down to overflow the balls in the top of your head, forehead, and throat, then into the ball in your chest, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts spinning; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts glowing, now it is completely full. Inhale again, more comes down, and it overfills, overflows down into the ball in your belly...

Step 5e = The next would be your Solar Plexus, but this Chakra has the opposite function as regards Astral Projection to the rest of the Chakra-s, energizing it prematurely will not have any positive result.

Step 5f = Sky Energizing belly Chakra,

As you inhale, the converted energies of the Sky come cascading down to overflow the balls in the top of your head, forehead, throat, chest, and into the ball in your belly, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts spinning; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts glowing, now it is completely full. Inhale again, more comes down, and it overfills, overflows down into the ball in your groin...

Step 5g = Sky Energizing groin Chakra,

As you inhale, the converted energies of the Sky come cascading down to overflow the balls in the top of your head, forehead, throat, chest, and belly, and then into the ball in your groin, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts spinning; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts glowing, now it is completely full. Inhale again, more comes down, and it overfills, overflows down into the ball between your feet...As you inhale, the converted energies of the Sky come cascading down into the ball in the top of your head, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts spinning; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts glowing, now it is completely full. Inhale again, more comes down, and it overfills, overflows down into the ball in your forehead...

Step 5h = Sky Energizing foot Chakra,

As you inhale, the converted energies of the Sky come cascading down to overflow the balls in the top of your head, forehead, throat, chest, belly, groin, and then into the ball between your feet,, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it starts spinning; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it grows larger, and you feel the Astral Funnel in the sky above you begin fading away; inhale again, more comes down, and as you exhale, it grows larger, and the Astral Funnel fades away completely.

Step 6 = rooting,

As you inhale, root-buds form on the underside of the ball between your feet, and as you exhale they go spiraling down deeply into the ground; inhale again and feel the energy all thru you vibrate, then exhale and the roots go spiraling down thru the Earth's crust into the Magma; inhale again and feel the energy all thru you vibrate, then exhale and the roots go spiraling down into the white hot center of the planet, and suddenly you can feel a presence, looking at you. You can feel the Spirit of the planet....and as She considers your existence, you inhale and all of your energy comes...

Step 7 = Earth Energizing all your Chakra-s,

...rushing straight up to you, straight up thru you, straight up to th ball in the top of your head, and as you exhale it all bursts out of that ball to rain down all around you and pool at your feet.

Step 8 = Cleansing your Aura,

Inhale, and the pool of energy drains into the ball between your feet and straight up to the ball in the top of your head. Exhale and it bursts forth to rain down all around you and pool at your feet. Begin breathing faster and faster, moving the energy thru you and around you faster and faster. Continue until you are breathing as fast as you possibly can.

Step 9 = Balancing Earth-Sky Energies.

When you feel like you are almost going to faint, big inhale and the energy moves straight up thru you one last time,, then exhale and blast all of it back up into the sky.

[PurplAstrlMagma]

When adept at the Fountain, you're probably ready to begin using it for Astral Projection.
Do it lying down this time, and do Steps 1 - 5d the same as normal, except put a ball-copy into your Solar Plexus after you place your chest-ball and before you place your belly-ball.

Step 5e = Activating your Solar Plexus

As your chest-ball becomes full, you inhale and the Astral Energy cascades down, overflowing the top of your head, your forehead, your throat, your chest, and into the ball in your Solar Plexus, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, and more comes down, and it starts spinning; inhale again, and more comes down, and it starts glowing, completely full. Inhale again, and more comes down, overflowing to your belly-ball...

(then do the rest of Step 5, and Steps 6, 7, and 8 as normal.)

Step 9 = Creating an Astral miniature,

Gather your focus, and as you inhale, orient upon your Solar Plexus,, then as you exhale, have the energy move thru your Solar Plexus and up, out of you, to form a cloud just above you. Focus on it becoming a ball, with a closed eye, and it does.

Step 10 = transferring your consciousness into the mini

Remember all of your Chakra-balls except your Solar Plexus, and imagine them rotating counterclockwise (to the left) while you mentally command: "Release!" Then focus on your Solar Plexus and imagine it rotating clockwise (to the right). Immediately you will feel a sensation of swift, sudden movement. Open your eye, and you should see your physical body lying beneath you. It can take a few tries to get this just right.

Step 11 (various travels, looks, and validation excercizes),

You can go anywhere you can imagine or think about. Try various of the validation excecizes included at this site. Go look at the past, your own birth, your gestation, what was happening to your spirit before you were a gleam in your parents' eyes... Whenever you feel mentally tired...

Step 12 = returning your consciousness and dissolving your mini.

...turn to look behind you. You should see a connection to your physical body. If you move to overlap that, you will be instantly moved back to your physical body. As you look down at it, move down into your Solar Plexus and 'give up' into sleep...(when you fall asleep your lack of focus on your mini makes it fade away, until about the third time you do all of this. If you do it that many times, you'll have a mini in your Solar Plexus that you can Project with whenever you want without having to do the Fountain, or even that you can send out to 'look at things for you', and get the visual recordings of when you bring it back to you, or Project to it.)

[PurplAstrlMagma]

When adept at the Fountain and the use of an Astral Projection Miniature, you're probably ready to begin using it for full Astral Projection.
Do it lying down this time, and do Steps 1 - 5d the same as normal, except put a ball-copy into your Solar Plexus after you place your chest-ball and before you place your belly-ball.

Step 5e = Activating your Solar Plexus

As your chest-ball becomes full, you inhale and the Astral Energy cascades down, overflowing the top of your head, your forehead, your throat, your chest, and into the ball in your Solar Plexus, and as you exhale it starts vibrating; inhale again, and more comes down, and it starts spinning; inhale again, and more comes down, and it starts glowing, completely full. Inhale again, and more comes down, overflowing to your belly-ball...

(then do the rest of Step 5, and Steps 6, 7, and 8 as normal.)

Step 9 = Releasing your full Astral Body

Gather your focus, and as you inhale, remember your Astral Body, the ideal vision of your Physical Body, and orient upon your Solar Plexus,, then as you exhale, have the energy move thru your Solar Plexus and up, out of you, to form a cloud just above you. Focus on it becoming a place where your Astral Body will be comfortable, and it does.

Step 10 = transferring your consciousness

Remember all of your Chakra-balls except your Solar Plexus, and imagine them rotating counterclockwise (to the left) while you mentally command: "Release!" Then focus on your Solar Plexus and imagine it rotating clockwise (to the right). Immediately you will feel a sensation of swift, sudden movement as you follow the flow of energy out of your physical body. Open your eyes, and you should see your physical body lying beneath you. Move your Astral limbs, test out your other senses.

Step 11 (various travels, looks, and validation excercizes),

You can go anywhere you can imagine or think about. Try various of the validation excecizes included at this site. Go look at the past, your own birth, your gestation, what was happening to your spirit before you were a gleam in your parents' eyes... Whenever you feel mentally tired...

Step 12 = returning

...turn to look behind you. You should see a connection to your physical body. If you 'grab' that and 'pull', you will be instantly moved back to your physical body. As you look down at it, remember being in it with love and nostalgia, and you should 'snap' back in with another sudden movement sensation.

Do you have to reach a certain level of spiritual enlightenment in order to use giant purple font? (thats a joke)

but a serious question,

How long did it take you to master all this that you have written? I realize everyone is different, but how long did it take you personally? Are you able to project every night or morning using this technique?

I didn't ask for a validation of chakras or whatever. I was just wondering how you came to 'know' they exist. like what kind of personal experiences have you had that made you believe in them?

Sounds like some solid information on energy work, I will give it a try and see what comes of it.

[Lighten]

LOL, stupid question! obviously you are able to project using your chakra development of whatever so that is your personal experience!

[CFTraveler]

May I ask how you know all these things as fact? such as, "you have an energy-body and can make more at any time."
or
"there are organs n your energy-body called chakra-s"

Im not saying its not true, just wondering how you came to those conclusions.

Thanks

Most of us experience certain things, and when they work, we just use it, whether it's fact of theory.

I would say there's more variables than that- depends on how able you are to focus, what your meditation training is, what type of projection you're naturally suited for, how you sleep, and how your energy body awareness is.  So how quick something is going to work can be fairly quick, or take a long time.  Then there is the psychological factor- psychological blocks to experience sometimes make the process last years.  So it's not that simple.
ps. How did you highlight the titles? It looks really cool.

Hey. I tried snapping my fingers to create an astral spark. Are you actually supposed to see something with your phyisical eyes? I couldn't get anything to happen. Any tips?

If it doesn't happen easily, you may have to practice having an intense expectation, and you might have to 'act as if' or 'pretend' that it happens until you get the result of it happening. Few can see it with their physical eyes right off the bat - - - Astral Eenergy doesn't seem to work that way. But it can be sensed somehow, and after enough 'acting as if', you will have shown your subconscious how you want it presented to you (the conscious mind). This will help with all kinds of sensing and interacting with Astral Energy.

And I think this may be of interest to those on the forum, so I'll re-post it all there.

Biggest Brightest Blessings!!!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!! Well done, sir! I guess not, but you do have to realize the possibilities of coding...

but a serious question,

How long did it take you to master all this that you have written? I realize everyone is different, but how long did it take you personally?

Years. I have been interested almost forever, but the only books I could find either were like journals, not how or why, but what happened, over and over. In my youth I read a book (Star Fire, Ingo Swann) that really, really impressed me and made me want to Astral Project. Later, Ullr taught me most of what I learned up on the Astral. So, when I found the Llewellyn Guide to Astral Projection, I was ecstatic. But I couldn't get their fountain exercise to work for me. So I began asking for dreams that would teach me how to make it work, and I got all the 'Astral Spark', line, disc, ball stuff, and then found that the Astral Balls worked really well to 'wake up' my chakra-s. After that it got going like gang-busters, and I did an amazing amount of Astral work for a few years. I visited 'layers' of the mind of All, the river of time, interacted with concepts as if they were sentient beings, did stuff that 'trippy' doesn't even begin to describe (and that I hesitate to discuss, lest I be considered certifiably crazy, like 'lock-me-away' crazy). Very important, but once I'd done that, Astral Projecting didn't become what I'd thought it would be, it didn't empower me to target psychic abilities in the real world, it was much more like a continual facing of the lessons required to become enlightened, and after a while, that became tiring, I could never tell for sure if these experiences involved anything outside of me, so I couldn't be sure if they were 'real lessons' or spiritual masturbating.

Are you able to project every night or morning using this technique?

I'm able....I'm just not always interested.

I didn't ask for a validation of chakras or whatever. I was just wondering how you came to 'know' they exist. like what kind of personal experiences have you had that made you believe in them?

I was still seeing aura-s when I visited a high school theatre and saw the singing actors 'shoot' energy-balls from their torso-s into the audience as they sang, and I was really interested in what those were. I did a lot of research, but there wasn't much on human energy systems available in the Reno Libraries. I finally found some Tantra-stuff that discussed 'energy-wheels' but was very mysterious and not very informative. Time passed and I got into the history of the Golden Dawn, and ran into much better explanations of the Hindi Elements and Chakra-s, but then they conflated them with various Qabalistic techniques, including the Middle Pillar Rite. A TV-special about Marilyn Monroe came on, and I received heart-chakra shots from her thru the recording, which seemed massively powerful to me. When I got the dream-info about how to make Astral Energy Balls, it suddenly all just fit together.
Sounds like some solid information on energy work, I will give it a try and see what comes of it.

Okay, when you reply, you have a bunch of 'coding options' above the box - - - B = bold, I = italic, U = underline, S = strikeout, and then there's a 'G' = glow. When  you use that, you can specify which color surrounds the text that you are designating to 'glow'. Then there's 'D' = shadow, a moving M = marquee M = marquee M = marquee M = marquee M = marquee   M = marquee M = marquee M = marquee M = marquee M = marquee, four collumnar or justifying options, horizontal rule, font size, font face, 'change color'.

I realize that my coding choices are somewhat irritating to some people, but
they could be way moreirritating, and if those coding options are not to be used, why have they been included?

[CFTraveler]

Thanks. 

[Panthau]

I was never able to produce such results. Though i was able to see aura´s when i was
a child.

I dont even manage step 1. I have a strong intention to look "behind the curtain", but
absolutly no access to it. Weird antilogy.

[iNNERvOYAGER]

 and if those coding options are not to be used, why have they been included?
Why is there evil in the world, and why do we have choices?     JUST kidding! Good html practice.

Greatd reading, thanks for all your posts.  /)_

You are the spam evil

[radman32]

When I got the dream-info about how to make Astral Energy Balls, it suddenly all just fit together.

What do you mean about dream-info? In your above steps, you actually visually see and reproduce all the balls and place them, but then you close your eyes and do the rest of the visualizations and the other stuff?

[PurplAstrlMagma]

What do you mean about dream-info? In your above steps, you actually visually see and reproduce all the balls and place them, but then you close your eyes and do the rest of the visualizations and the other stuff?

Okay. For years I'd been told stuff about energy-balls. I've read about them, people have taught me stuff about how to use them magickally, but I just was never able to make them. I got obsessed about it, I did Tarot readings on it, I plagued myself and Source with questions on ways. Then I just gave up. A few days later, I had a dream in which I was shown how to make the Astral spark and use it to make all sorts of Astral structures which could not exactly be physically seen, but which had more reactivity than just imagination-products - - - meaning, I could make them and apply them and could sense them reacting in ways that I had not imagined. While playing around with that, I put one Astral Ball overlapping my third-eye chakra. Somewhat later, when I went to attempt the fountain again, it was a lot easier to imagine all of the parts, steps, and results. So, the next time, I made the Astral Ball and copies, and put them into my chakra-s, and the Fountain was easy! So if you go back and re-read Step 1 of the Fountain, look at how this is different from just using your imagination. There's intent and expectation, there's command and 'acting as if', and somehow, those make a powerful difference. I hope it works for you, or if not, that you find something which does work for you!
