I can get relaxed/focused easily (focus 10/12). I sometime feel vibrations and mostly have a lot of interesting visuals. I can keep my mind relaxed/focused for a few minutes without extraneous thought taking control.

I get to the point where i am not focused on my body, and the blackness seems to expand to 360 degrees. Once I am here my expectations usually get in the way. I start thinking "Now I should float out of my body" or "now i should see the astral."

This quickly makes me tense and sort of awaiting these phenomena instead of staying present. Is there a way to curb these expectations, or perhaps a way to quiet or control them?

Also, i think my astral sight is essentially blind. I got out of body the other night (or i was in "the void" or whatever) but then I thought "Now i need to open my eyes." This then totally killed the experience and focused my attention on my physical eyes. How can I fix my astral sight?

Hey guys my name is Ryan. Pi-rate is my "graffiti name". I have always been very into lucid dreaming, as a kid I had lucid dreams every night. When I got older I lost it but still have them multiple times a week. I have a lot of experience in the realm of lucid dreaming but it is all from waking up in the dream. My goal now is to be able to induce that state of consciousness from the waking physical state. I've successfully done it twice, but both were almost 2 years ago.

Today I had a great meditation. I developed a new tool for myself to achieve a "one-pointed consciousness." It was useful and I will definitely be using it every time a meditate. I also "dissolved" my desire to astral project. It's hard to explain, but it was like I just didn't care if I projected anymore because  the meditation was so awesome I knew my consciousness was benefiting regardless. I think this is an important paradigm shift for my personal development. After I didn't care about projecting I was able to have a fantastic meditation experience where I was totally at peace and listening to the inner working of my psyche.

I feel great and can't wait to do it again. I just wanted to share this with the community. I have lurked here for a while now, btw.
