I feel i can reach this state consciously easy, but what can i do besides observ the images?

Hello, Last night I tried a different approach to projection. Instead of doiing it before bed, I woke up early hours in the morning stayed awake for like 20-30 minutes and then tried Projecting. I tried doing the normal noticing method, I would see some scenes flash by and I would feel the effect off them as if they where real, I was quite amazed by this. I changed position, I hit the vibrational stage again, I this time, you know when you're yawing you get a wind noise in your ears, I felt that a tiny bit and I layed there it began to raise and always started to hear like a high pitched sqeeking in my ears, when I feel like I am stuck at a point I stop and change posiiton, So I changed position, Hit vibrational statge ( It seems that I can go through this step easy and seems if I have the intent of inducing them it just happens ) but this time, I realized something what I was doing wrong, I could still feel my physical body, Yes my body was half numb but I could still feel it quite a bit, I layed there and tried to "let go", but I gave up in the end. Ahwell, I did enjoy the experience over having all this experience within 15-30 minutes of trying. Enjoying the experience is great because you know you're making success whether you don't have a full seperation or not, Atleast you know you're experiencing atleast something that's along the right lines! Positive thinking!

Astral Projection Attemp #1
Yesterday I was doing lots of studying on Astral Projection, Lucid Dreaming, Out of body experiences and came across Ryan's Book/PDF and thought I would read through a little bit of it. I read some of it and Jumped down to the Exercises part of the PDF, I came Across the Exercise "Noticing" and read through it as careful as possible. Even though Ryan explained it as easy it was not when it came to experimenting with it. My experience lead from getting no where from being somewhere though!
So, as I began the exercise it kind of confused me of how to see in the darkness, I would look in the darkness and my mind would create random images, but I'm not looking to use my mind am I, I am here to just notice any changes within the blackness. It felt like that was not "working" for me so I stopped and opened my eyes and just lied there for like quite a bit ( not sure how long ). I turn and lie on my back, I close my eyes and just breathe, Suddenly, I felt some kind of vibrations kick in. These where not so intense but I could feel them strongly enough. I kept going and going and open my eyes again. I swapped position and decided to face the wall with my hand under my cheek bone as a rest. My eyes are staring at the wall and because the room was dark the wall started to produce shapes and shapes. (I remember reading somewhere that Ryan likes to use a Spiral or a vortex within the blackness) so I let all the shapes form into a vortex and My eyes sank deeper and deeper until it got darker and darker until I felt the need to close my eyes. So I did close my eyes and I was just relaxing, It began to feel like I was in the middle of a room with nothing around me. So, I put my hand out and touched me wall, and I was still in my bed. I layed there again with my eyes closed and now I started to feel intense vibrations my eye feels like it's twitching and I start to see the colour white. I then stopped again but this time when I close my eyes it's different, I let the sensations take over, I see a white light coming down from my Third Eye creating a line just below my chest. I carry on with the sensations, I feel Numb, My hearts racing, I'm breathing too fast and heavy, I still let the sensations take over, I then notice the blackness in my eyes it feels like I was in the middle off it, It felt like I was about to loose consciousness, So, I took the chance to actually get out my body, I didn't realise until after what I experienced that I was not suppose to just "get up" I just got up like I was still in my physical body, but I was suppose to Visualise my astral self getting up wasn't i? Then after my body moved it ended and I couldn't get to sleep for a while then.

These symptoms are not all in order because I can not remember what came first. Would love some opinions on this please.

A question?
When I am about the project am I suppose to visualise myself getting up? Or move my physical body?

Since in LD it's all about intent. would that mean if you wanted to meet your spirit guide in a LD it would merely just be your imagination? or is it actually your spirit guide?

Its been some time since I have phased, must of been a couple of weeks. so, I Gradually began to do it.... Relaxing, letting myself go numb..... Relaxing and relaxing. Until, I got to the point where, I wanted to just relax no intent.. after just relaxing, I little white light popped into my mind in the corner, though it felt like the corner of the my eyes. I stayed like that.... Then later on, The picture of myself was standing in a church,yes) It felt like I was standing there, No third person mode lol... I only got a glimpse. At first I thought it was a church but as I carried on relaxing, Shapes started to form....... I started to think was it a funeral home....., I opened my eyes and started again... but this time it was weird. like I had my head on the side but then I noticed shadows and shapes started to form and immediately it felt felt my mind "aligned" straight, it felt weird. I had no control of it, It just moved to look straight once that happened, There was a head taking a forum of a person. I do not know this person. but he had curly hair, rather young. 20's 30's 40's maybe. white face, Had little bits of spots on his face. Brownish hair. After he dissapeared.......Words started reaping telepathically, they just started, I did not intent... They kept on repeating them selves them suddenly the full word came to mind. The word was "appointment" or "apartment" I can not believe I forgot the word. so thats where I stopped. Got a head ache now though.. To be honest, I was still half physically aware.


sorry for my poor spelling and grammar

I got to the vibrational stage within minutes. My heart was punding I kept feeling this intense energy in my stomach, this and vibrations felt uncomfortable so I had to stop

When One goes deeper in a more relaxed state does there head start to sway? Or it is just me? It feels like my heads swaying physical but its not :/

Also, While in a relaxed state before, I came across a few things. The main color I am seeing is "white" It appeared there are many things I saw but the ones I am here to mention, I think I seen a person, a spirit more or less and It was in all white, Like a glow. didn't see any facial features though and there was a tunnel full with white light(well, It kinda looked like a tunnel, yet I am going on the impressions I got)

so it is afternoon here, I was listening to some guy rant about astral projection on youtube, My body was in a very nice relaxed state, I decided to close my eyes, I fell deeper into the relaxed state, Pressure was on my third eye, It hurt lol. Until in my mind I began to see something like a "cube". Not sure if thats the right word. But There was two lines at one side and two lines on the other side, but I got the impression it was a cube. not sure what it is like, only if I could describe more better.

opinions?

so the method i've been trying is rather a popular one I think. Go to sleep, then once you're about wake, don't move a muscle. Right, so past 2 nights, I've been trying to do it, but when I wake up I always move my body and think to myself, why the hell did you do that, I was suppose to try and project! so I just ended up giving in and falling back asleep

It feels impossible to ap 

So, Yah. My new way of doing things is to go to sleep at like 2-3 am in the morning, wake up early, I am guaranteed to be tired as I was today. as usual I went to go to sleep and when i reached the stage where I'm on the edge of sleep I suddenly become conscious(I did not move a muscle, I told myself mind awake body asleep. the worst case was I did not know if I was really in the state where I could have tried to ap. I was in the state where I barely could feel body. In that case, I thought I done it wrong and went to sleep

Since I had a dream out astral project it made me think to come back and try again. As last time when trying conscious Astral projection, I was doing them on a very waking alert state which didn't get me veru far. My new way for this is the following:

Go to bed at whatever time I fall asleep and when just becoming aware I will try and keep my eyes closed and stay in tha peaceful state of sleep and tell my mind to stay awake and my body to stay asleep. Easier said than done lol.

What ya'll think of my new way of doing it?

Hello, All.

I have not attempted Astral Projection in like 2 months. But last night I had a dream which was related to it.

It all started with a young boy. He was attempting to astral project and he failed and failed but then it came a time where he tried once more and fell asleep and then suddenly he popped out his body. Now the weird thing about this is that when he popped out of his body, I physically felt a strong energy, I don't know what it is, all i can say is that it felt so real(thats why I said physically). Note , that's all I remember as far as him being out his body. Yet when he came back to his body, He felt scared, worried for some reason. Then that's where it all stopped.

Not sure what you guys think?

I really do have to say I have never been in a Sleep Paralysis state and be aware of it, Although I do receive quite a lot of the astral projection Symtons

Is it a bad idea that I want to Travel to the lower frequencies with all the negative spirit, The reason I want to do this, To gain more knowledge on what causes them to be who they are? To see see more into what they are like? To help them. etc..

I tried to do a conscious projection last night, I had my physical body asleep/numb.

Not sure but mentally, I got an image a person on a bed and getting ready to exit, surely, I could feel there astral body more, I don't know how to explain it, But I could feel it. I seen lot's of images in my third eyes, Very vivid. I decided to stop after some times. I heard like 2 knocks on my wall, 50% chance it was physical explanation, 50% it was something out of this reality. So, I mentally said, I do not fear, I am not scared. I turned on my TV and I heard a man say "Oh, Shutup". I did not give a reply, I ignored and carried on watching TV.

Now, Let me tell you an experience with had 2 sensations. It was 1-3 in the morning. I was not that tried, But, I just gave it ago, it went kind of well. so, I closed my eyes, my body was nice and relaxed, As I stated, The heart-beat sensation, oh my god, This sensation is so intense, It feels like you're having an heart-attack, Knowing that, I just wanted to stop, But, No, I decided to just go with it, It started to slow down and I got the vibrations, The vibrations got stronger, I was calm and happy until I got to the point where I heard someone knock on the wall, Really it is 1-3 in the morning, who would knock on a wall at that time, Unless it was just with the experience. As it freaked me out, So, I opened my eyes. I am not sure what caused the knock, Could of been my next door neighbour, but what are the chances of them knocking?

~I would love to thank Lion Especially, Due to the help He has gave me, and the rest of astral pulse~

Firstly, I would like to Introduce myself. My name is Josh and I am 15 years of age. I have been a developing medium for nearly a year. Let me tell you a bit about my experiences.I started to meditate when I was about 11, I got started learning witchcraft, got introduced to meditation, Got introduced to medium-ship, Now finally I got introduced to Astral projection. Now, Ever since I was a young kid, I have always felt there was some different in me. I felt different from others. Now, Every since I joined this site the administrator stated that what I do is Phasing, I realised all these symptons I get in meditation are really just me phasing, I realised that this has a connection with astral projection. Come to think Of it, I have been practising astral projection since Thursday last week. and would you believe it or not I can reach the vibration stage already? am I meant to astral project or what? Now, enough about me. Let's get cracking on with this thread.

I know I am only a beginner myself, But, I thought I would like to make a thread on what I know. Please correct me If I have got some of this information wrong.

Have you ever had the feeling that there is more to life than just being humans? There is more than just your five sense, Have you ever wondered if there where a spirit world or if even god or spirit's existed? spirit guides, angels, loved ones? Have you ever had the feeling that there was something deep inside you was destined to find out? Well guess what, All of what is said above you can do! You just need practice and patience and a brain.

I have been doing a lot studying lately, Mainly watching videos on Robert Bruce. Now, Today. We are going to be working with Fear. Now, we have all been there. I have seen some post's on Astral Pulse about being scared of heights and being scared to go on planes in the astral plane, scared of Death, Your silver cord being snapped, Or you being possessed while you are out of your body. Now let me tell you this. You can not die, You can not be possessed because if you believe it or not your spirit is not actual out of your body. It is a tiny bit of your consciousness projecting yourself, The body would be as perfect as your physical body is. So, Moving onto the next thing, What exactly happens when your Silver Cord snaps or breaks. Now, I have done some a quite a-lot a research about this, According to Robert Bruce, When it snaps it is basically like a light shutting down, Which when that happens you go back into your physical body straight away.

Working with Symptons, When you're a beginner you will experience quite a lot of sensations. I have no doubt of that. 90% of all of you people will experience the same symptons. There are 3 main symptons. There is one where it feels like your heart is pumping like 500 times a minute. To tell you the truth, It is not actually your heart, But your heart chakra. if you get this, You are on the right track to astral projection. As you will get this sensation is because it is your heart chakra that is putting all of energy into it. Nothing more, So if things get really intense with this feeling, Just tell yourself "I am going to get through this, I am staying calm". If you can get through that then you are doing a god damn good job. Next, There is a falling sensation, Now, This is the sensation where it feels like you are falling through your body. I have experienced this a-lot when I was a kid, I use to feel this sensation so intense I would turn over and it felt like I was on the edge of a Mountain getting ready to fall off then I would grab hold of the side of my bed like an Idiot. I could imagine my parents watching me do that. You will all have experienced this one time in your life, If you have got through it, You are making very good progress to having a out-of-body experience. Lastly, There are the vibrations. Now, I get these when-ever I intend to astral project. When I get these I know I am close to actually astral projecting. You may already know that these vibrations cover all of your body, But actually your physical body is not actually producing them. It has been proved before back in the day they done this experiment on Robert Munroe.

Now, Let me tell you an experience with had 2 of these sensations. It was 1-3 in the morning. I was not that tried, But, I just gave it ago, it went kind of well. so, I closed my eyes, my body was nice and relaxed, As I stated, The heart-beat sensation, oh my god, This sensation is so intense, It feels like you're having an heart-attack, Knowing that, I just wanted to stop, But, No, I decided to just go with it, It started to slow down and I got the vibrations, The vibrations got stronger, I was calm and happy until I got to the point where I heard someone knock on the wall, Really it is 1-3 in the morning, who would knock on a wall at that time, Unless it was just with the experience. As it freaked me out, So, I opened my eyes. I am not sure what caused the knock, Could of been my next door neighbour, but what are the chances of them knocking?

Now at the moment, I am working on fear. Well, It is not the fact that it scared me, it is the fact that it made me jump. I have let go of the heart-beat sensation and the vibrational sensations. I was doing so good, But that knock! Really screwed things up for me. I am taking it a step at a time. Every-night, I making better progress. We can talk about my experiences somewhere else, I will post my experience in a different section also so we can discuss it here.


Now, Let's talk about having conscious projections. Now, I can not tell you everything, But, I can guide you all up-to the but about being totally relaxed and actually taking off in the experience. okay, Making your body relaxed enough, Like it is enough. So, Let's talk about how  achieve a good enough state so I can proceed. Well, if you ask me, It is just basically "doing it". You can do it, Clear your mind, focus on your breathing, That is what I do, let myself seek deeper into relaxation then state in my mind that I want to astral project then the sensations start to arrive. Just don't bother about your physical body at the moment, Notice the blackness when your eyes are closed. see pictures float through your mind too take your awareness of the body. To tell you the truth, I do not know how I do it, It just happens. But, I believe everyone has different methods that just work for them. I think I am use to doing it because I am always relaxing.

I was actually watching another Robert Bruce video earlier on. I gathered all this info from his videos. did you know astral body has a vision of 360 degrees, But die to the fact your physical eyes only have like half of that, You're limited. also. Our vision, Let's say we are astral projecting and have a successful projection, let's say we flew out of our bedroom window and you wanted to turn left. Your consciousness mind would basically reverse your vision and perception so if you really think about it, You're walking forward all the time? as your consciousness is placing your intent right in-front of you. Although, Robert Bruce does state that this does not happen if not done on purpose, as it would as you would turn left as you where in the physical, I feel this is due to the fact that we are not intending to do anything. This subject is a bit hard to explain it kind of delves into science related topics, So, I will have to stop here.

I have always wanted to astral project, Now since I joined astral-pulse, You have nearly made my dream come true, I am nearly there. I have to say with-out all of your help, I would of given in by now. Let me tell you all something. I use to have rather a sceptical mind, I  use to think that astral projection was not real, I use to think that because everyone could do it, That I can not, But it just proves that if you stick to something like this and practice and practice and never give in, You will get your desired result in the end. as many people know me, I kind of give up on things rather quickly. But with the things I have been experiencing with this, I have rather changed my views on the subject.

That is it for today!

Once I get more experienced, I want to test an experiment.

2 people would astral project and meet up in the astral plane. I would try and go into the other people's physical body and they shall go in mine. I am wondering what the result would be.

Have you thought about that before?

So, last night i tried another attempt to have an out of body experience. So, I was really relaxed, It was about 1-3 in the morning. My breathing was terrible and I had a upset stomach, So, I am even surpised I ahd this experience. I focused on my breathing, My awareness was not on my physical body, The blackness when you close your eyes started to get bigger and bigger, I seen a few colours. The color that stud out was "purple".  My head started to shake, Got dizzy, I was going to stop but I knew lion would of wanted me to just let it happen, So, I just went with the feeling. Suddenly, I some sort of vibrations on my body, I could feel them filling the whole of my body, Then that's where it went terrible... +-+ My I lost focus and the vibrations started faiding, I was really dissapointed in myself. Until, I was really tired. So, I closed my eyes and sank into a deeper relaxation state. I got the feeling my head was trying to roll over, I stayed like this for a few minutes. It was rather annoying. as I knew my head was physically still..... I just decided to go to sleep then.

What are your opinions on this?

I was nice and relaxed in bed, Stuck on some nice music, intended to astral project and within 10 seconds my head started vibrating/shaking o.o that was fast don't you think........

I highly recommend this guided meditation.

Over the last couple of days I have been doing the same exercise every-night before bed.

Wait till 1-2 O-clock in the morning.
Feeling tired
body is nice and relaxed
Now, Even though I have not had a successful out of body experience, I believe intent is most crucial step. You're telling yourself what is going to happen. Without the intent how on earth are you going to have one? But that is just me, I believe everyone has there way. My mind set's that goal and when The chance is golden, I start to get symptoms for having an OBE. Because Of my Intent. I maybe wrong, I maybe right. Just a heads up that's all.

It is a simply exercise. Though, I would say it is quite hard for people who have hard time trying to not be aware of there physical body. somewhat. Don't worry about your physical body, for me it's all about getting my body into a deep relaxation state which then starts to take the feeling off the  that is where I can then actually start to have an OBE.

Have a Go My way. last night it took like 15-30 minutes. Give it a go, It might work for you.

I was recently having an Conversation about this to a member called Lion. Now, Lion mentioned that people astral project and never do it again. I feel this has got to with what they experienced, Lion noted it changes who you are and your perspective on things. Now, What I don't get is why people don't Take that chance and from it. Now, if you are scared to experience yourself..... Look at it this way. Someone was said to me "Fear is a choice, No matter how bad the situation is, You are choosing to be scared". Now, I am not saying that your experience what scary, But what ever happened out in that experience you did not like other-wise you not say you would never astral project again. As Lion stated in another post. You may think you are ready but deep inside you are not. I feel mainly people focus more on the negatives than the positives. Now, Think of it this way. You could astral project and seek spiritual growth, You could gain a lot of knowledge. You could find a lot more things which could change how you think and how the human/eearth works. I don't see why people would waste a OP. Lions has really made me think hard about this. For me, My Goal is astral projection is to Help those that are lost, Seek knowledge, Discover brand new things, Grow spiritually. Loads more.

You have the OP. Take the chance while you can.

Last night, I got the feeling I did not want to do, But as usual, My body was really tired, So I decided to give it a go. I was lieing there from 15-30 minutes try to do this. Nothing happened so I though I would just give in. I decided I wanted to go to sleep, So as I try to sleep, I get this feeling that If I did it one more time I could get some progress. So, I was really relaxed.  Closed my eyes, Let my body sink deeper into a deep relaxation state. Now, I felt this sensation in base of my spine, I put my awareness on this sensation, I lost my focus and it was gradually faided away, I got to the point that I needed to just let it happen, So I just was laying there. Now, I felt the sensation, it felt stronger, It turned into a vibration. Next minute this vibration climbed it's way up my back and around my head, and half way up to me leg. It got intense. So, I decided to open my eyes.

I am not sure If I am making progress?

So, Firstly, I set a time when I was going to do it and what my intent of was to do. I found it easy to make my body numb, I can make it go numb within a couple of seconds due to the fact that I have experience with meditation. So, I would like to say I did not astral project but I did get a few feelings. Firstly, I felt little bits of energy on my legs and testicals, Vibrating, Only a tiny bit. Next thing that happened when my body sank deeper is that, It like my head was becoming tight? I don't know how to explain it. Like it was being squashed to the tightest it could be then I started to aches in my third eye and aches all around my face, I don't know what it is, So, I just opened my eyes and went to s;ee[ as usual. This was my first try at doing this, so what do ya'll think?

Before we start, I shall say that I video'd myself meditating.

Hello, A couple of months ago, I attempted some meditation. I started meditating, got relaxed ect. While 3-5 mins through the meditation, I felt my head sway back and fourth, Back and fourth, then it started to sway side to side, I was aware of it. I ignored it and you know when you close your eyes and see full blackness, I looking further into the blackness, It felt like the room was getting bigger and bigger. Until, I become a aware someone was standing infront of me, Moving back and fourth, whatever it was it was right near my face. So, about 7 minutes into the meditation I decided to stop.

I played the the video back to see what exactly happened. I was completely normal, My head was not swaying on the video and there was no person in front of me. What do you think?
