(esp.) Naykid: Wow. That sounds really neat! Kinda like being a stuntsman. XD The astral has many purposes, but I think that one of its main purposes is to ready us into the next level of ascenscion by reducing our fears, etc. So far I have not had lessons like that (aside from politics, I fear hardly anything else... so that should be an exciting lesson, haha XD)
(esp.) Enix: I never would have thought of it like that... how can I find out of this dream is a reflection of my spirit/new desire of my soul? And what do you mean by the quotation in post #3 being what my spirit sees?

(Sorry I haven't replied to you guys up until now... I had stopped tracking this topic for a while. XD)

(esp.) geass: I don't really do much of anything with young people or kids. I do practice a lot of meditation and the likes, though. I understand not to take any dream too literally. I try to pay as much attention to my dreams. This dream felt very different from my other dreams; even gave me a different feeling... that I had something I needed to share with others.

(esp.) Naykid: I've had a total count of 2 dreamstate lessons. Both of them were with the same teacher, and the lessons were both one-on-one. I remember the first one was about spirit guides... I can't quite remember what the last (to date) one was about though. Surprisingly, I still remember quite vividly what my teacher looked like. Long, flowing dark hair, dark eyes, and (both times) in a long white (casual-style) dress. I wonder if everybody remembers this clearly what their dreamstate teachers looked like, aha. XD

Many thanks to vladjackguy and Psilibus, etc. for the healing energies being sent to me. I really appreciate this. Things are good around here, so that means they're working. Thanks everyone!

Hey Blue,

I've only been on this site for 1-2 years, but I have gotten that link before and I know the site and book, of which I have read quite a bit of. That site is legit, as other members of AP have also recommended that eBook to newbie projectors such as myself.  You should check out that book (I downloaded the book from that site, and haven't gotten a thing from it  ). It helped me learn a good few things or so about projecting. Maybe it'll help you too.

Aha, it is.... but I just go with the flow and make it a rule not to screw with it. :3 And thanks. *Gives Karma point to soli*

Thanks you two. *Gives 1 Karma point to Stookie and CF each* This really means a lot. So, yea, thanks a lot.

Okay, so as of right now things are going fine as of this moment. However, I can feel tension in the air between my parents when they are in the same room. And not just when they're talking. Even when they're in a good mood it's as if I can feel the tension between them. Other people don't seem to notice it. But when I'm around them I can't help but notice it. I know there's not much I can do. Right now I'm just 18-year-old girl trying to learn astral projection while wrapping up the last few days of high school. I have a feeling part of the tension might be the lifestyle. My dad is retired, but looking into tutoring students in maths and other such subjects. My mom is in her fifties working two jobs as a waitress just to pay the bills. I understand that could be what is causing the tension, but I was wondering if maybe some of you lovely members out there reading this could possibly send some positive energies/prayers to me and my family? It would mean a lot to me, considering I'm pretty much stuck in this house until I can save up some decent amount of money to move into a small house on my own. :3 Thanks for reading...
Much <3 Nina

So, right now I'm pretty interested in getting to work on my chakras (all of them, but most importantly my Third Eye and Crown chakra). I have no idea how to get started on this though. I was wondering if somebody could point in the right direction with this?
Much appreciated,
Nina

Lol... what would I (spiritually?) have to share when I can barely AP? XD
Maybe the dream was also a reaction that some part of me had to always thinking about how... underdeveloped(?) many people are when it comes to the grand scheme of things (especially spiritually speaking).
The dream did have a funny feel about it though. As if I were really there.

The other night I dreamed I was the Headmistress of a school that taught people (particularly teenagers and young adults) how to awaken and/or further develop their psychic abilities. Nothing much happened in the dream except that I was walking through the school and its campus. What do you guys think this dream might mean?

Thanks for the link Xanth! I'll be definitely saving that.

I seemed to have abandoned this topic. 

Well, my father is doing very well and fast recovering from his surgery. By the time we (my family and I) go to Italy June 4 (graduation present sort of thing) he should be good as new. I really appreciate all of the healing energies and thoughts being sent from this forum. It means a lot to me that people I barely know have helped us (my family and I) in such ways as praying and what have you. Many thanks!

Hey Timandra and Greytraveller. Thanks for the warm welcomes!

Xanth: I do not get very much out of this regime (I made it up, so that's maybe why ). At best I can, however, get very minor vibrations. But even in the few times I have gotten such minor vibrations, I have not been able to move past them into my astral body and out of my physical. Rather, I tend to fall asleep faster after I them. Figures. Pssh.

CFTraveler: There's no real way I can elaborate more on how I said that, but I guess what I meant by that was: I try to create in my mind a sort of miniature film of me successfully leaving my body. No luck with it though. Just the minor vibrations I spoke of above. Huh.

Once in school I was sitting at my desk in my Environmental Science with my 'seat partner' to my right (we have those cool black tables in class where they seat two instead of one XD).

I had fallen asleep for a couple minutes. Out of nowhere my seat gets pushed back a bit and I wake up. I look around me and ask the kids if they had pushed my seat back to wake me up. They just kinda laughed and said "No".

So it's almost like knocking the books off the desk (good thing my teacher was busy talking to some other kid to not notice my jolting my chair back!).

Every once and a while I before I go to sleep just as my body relaxes my feet (or at least one of them anyways) will twitch or jerk to one side or another. I'm wondering if these jerks we have are maybe our astral body reconnecting with our physical body (if I remember correctly, doesn't Robert Bruce mention something about this in Astral Dynamics? =/)

I recently posted a topic in the Member's Introdutions, to which Xanth suggested I should make such a topic as this. So, here you go Xanth!

As of now I'm a little bit busy trying to finish up high school (I am a Senior currently on my last 20 days of school before getting out for summer until community college). But here is my outline for astral projecting for when I can find the time to try.

1. Relaxation Exercise for 2-3 minutes
2. Energy Work for 5 minutes of the Robert Bruce kind
3. Breathing Exercise for 3 minutes
4. Affirmation for 5-7 minutes (in which I repeat "Mind Awake/Body Asleep" and soon get lulled into a miniature sort of trance state

After #4 I do one of two things:
1. Visualize falling asleep in my physical body and waking up shortly after in my astral body and then going wherever
2. Repeat affirmations such as "Now I am out-of-body" over and over. When I do this, I usually get as far as very minor vibrations before I fall asleep.

I usually practice trying to AP at night. I know a lot of you around here say *not* to do that, hence why I also try and wake up at 4 in the morning on a daily basis, so then my body is used to it and on the days I am able to do so, I can try the aforementioned outline.

Unfortunately I have not had much luck with getting successfully out-of-body with full-blown consciousness. If anybody can give me any tips of what-nots, that would be great thanks!

Thanks Stookie and Xanth!

Xanth: I'll get to that topic A.S.A.P! Thanks a bunch!

ETA: Here's a link to my outline topic thingy. http://www.astralpulse.com/forums/welcome_to_astral_consciousness/my_current_method_for_ap-t31377.0.html

Hey. My name's Nina. Some of you have probably seen me lurking around the forums some. I have been on here for a good 2-3 years. I first found out about this site when I was researching astral projection for the first time. I have been trying to project for 3 1/2 years, with no luck.

I do energy work (Robert Bruce kind) from time to time, about every other couple of days. I also work out physically 2-3 times a week (I even walk home from school, and that's a good mile there). I don't think I'm doing too much wrong. I am also an epileptic, although my last seizure was 3 years ago and I since I was diagnosed with juvenile grand-mal epilepsy, I have been taken Levitracitan(sp?), which I take twice a day, morning and night, daily. Call me nuts but I have a hunch that the Levitracitan might be preventing me from having a full-blown 100% conscious OBE, which I have been aiming to get for some time as I have said before. Unfortunately I have no way of getting off of these stupid things (I hate having to rely on unnatural remedies such as pills, although I am in no way an addict to anything) as I am pretty much on them for the rest of my life.

Other than astral projection, I am also currently studying the Law of Attraction and Chakra Healing. Hopefully I can start talking to you guys more instead of keeping to the shadows. See you around!

P.S. If any of you wish to talk to me more, you're welcome to send me a PM!

Thanks for your replies, Xanth and CF. Yea, I have read a few books on AP (and still am XD. I have Robert Bruce's first version of Astral Dynamics (the one that came before the smaller one). For the moment now, I'm going to refer to the energy work tutorials on his site and see if those help any. If I get satisfactory results, and if I feel I want to look into his NEW method further, I think I will definitely buy his book on energy work. For now, I'll stick with the online guides. Thanks again!

Lately I have been considering beginning energy work (I have been practicing AP for the past 3-and-a-half years, and have so far only gotten as far as the vibrations; usually I black out after I get the vibrations because I only have time at the moment to practice at night -_-). I have read the reviews for it that Amazon has on its page for it, but I also want to know what you guys think about it. Should I get it? Do the exercises in the book work at all?

For perhaps a few months (maybe three or four), there would be the same man appearing in my dreams (tall and thin with thick, dark hair, and warm, dark eyes with a body). In every dream he would always be kind and warm to me, nothing more, nothing less. I don't know what happened, but I don't seem to dream of/about him anymore. I don't know if he was some sort of guide, but I didn't exactly get anything out of it if he was meant to teach me some sort of 'lesson'. Any thoughts about this? I just find this kind of weird. =/

I'd punch 'em in the mouth and then go off on my merry lil' way. 
Actually, not really. I'd just give 'em a taste of their own medicine and not listen to them and their beliefs the same way they decided not to listen to me and my beliefs.

A quick little update:

Thanks to everyone who is sending prayers out to my family and me. They are helping immensely. My father had surgery yesterday afternoon and everything in surgery went fine. He is now in ICU and will be until Monday. I have only seen him once - before surgery. But my mom has seen him a few times since he was admitted. He is apparently doing very well, being very pleasant and positive about everything. Thanks again for all the prayers. They really are helping!
<3

Thanks, CF. 

Thank you. I'm not used to asking the forums for sending healing energy and the likes, so if any particular information is necessary/required please let me know and I'll drop y'all a PM.
