wow thanks pondini this guy is great! just watching the first video now, definately going to enjoy these... and lionheart thats amazing it's started happening to me too! when i sleep or awake up i see visions, i recently seen a pot of flowers and lots of ice. thanks for the replies

Could somebody please give me a deep but simple explanation to the nature of the astral plane? I'd like to understand more thoroughly the relationship between our minds and the so-called matter I see when I'm APing.
This morning I woke up, it was the middle of the day and it was very bright, I fell back to sleep and had a very interested dream which triggered my projection. I was shot by a man in my dream – and because of my belief that we exit the body when the body fails I started to come out of it in the dream but at the same time I was exiting my body on the physical plane. I thought this was a pretty interesting trigger to trigger my projection, but anyway that's not the point, the point is, my bedroom looked far cleaner and slightly different and it was very dark, just like it is at night. I know it was a projection, I felt the intense vibrations running through my body and the noises of frequency as I exited and entered my body. So why is this? It's happened quite a few times, why doesn't the astral world perfectly reflect our physical world? Is it because of my lack of memory of the waking world? Maybe I projected into a different time than I was in in the waking world at that present moment? Or is the astral plane just too unpredictable for an explanation?
I do believe that thought and mind chatter vibrates at a higher frequency, hence why we cannot see it on this physical plane e.g. if I imagine/visualize a tiny dragon next to my keyboard, I can see it there but it is not actually there in this physical plane, but it is actually existing in a different plane of existence. How true would you say this is and am I on the right lines to trying to understand the nature of the astral world which has been baffling me for a while?

peace and love

Hey vlad. Yeah i have had much similar experiences. It is a very mysterious experience, I have read about it and asked about it for a while as i get it often. Here are some possibilities:

-Your are experiencing the very experience of exiting the dream world to the waking world
-You are exiting the dream and entering the astral plane (but your conciousness hasnt followed into the astral)
-Maybe your energy doesnt have enough energy to carry on being in the dream world
-It could simply be your subconcious, maybe some kind of energy barrier within the subconcious or just your lust to travel in a wormhole if this is the case, try meditation before you sleep, it will help awareness memory and focus and maybe gain more understanding if it happens again - if it happens again try to not experience it but be the observing eye and maybe ask yourself why it is happening and maybe your subconcious will give you an answer.

Yes these vibrations are your concious awareness of your energy body. A great sense to have and to grow on. It will help your spiritual enlightment and APing. Ever since i started sensing my energy body starting from my hands and feet eventually to everywhere, APing has started happenning naturally. If you do it in everyday life it will bring your awareness higher and align you with the universal present moment. It will also raise your immune system and help healing and regeneration of all kinds of sickness and disease. Keep practising it, it will help you a lot with Earths own changes as we enter a quickening of the planetary shift. Wherever you set your awareness, your energy, the essence of you, will follow.

Wow thanks for the great answer! Gives me a bit to meditate on. I thought it was my subconcious but i can usually tell, it really feels like, kind of what you said, some sort of spiritual barrier between the astral and the physical, maybe the energy in my body wasnt up to scratch. And yeah i probably got it from a habit i developed from when i was training myself in lucid dreaming, im always doing a reality check (holdin my nose and breath, if i cant breath it means its the waking life and if i cant it means im in another dimension which i need to work out which one.) So yeah im just constantly questioning my reality.

One time I was walking home at night, I became lucid and to my extent of knowledge I think I was astral projecting. Anyway As I became lucid I flew up for a bit towards my house, but suddenly I lost control, and I was swaying side to side throwing me everywhere, i was swaying over a big field next to my house, the field is usually empty but this time there were things and people on it and some of these people and children were watching me... anyway this morning I had a similar experience. I became lucid infront of my house, I thought I was astral projecting so I flew up to my room and saw myself sleeping with the dog just as I remember going to sleep. So I thought cool I'm projecting, so as i leave the room and go through the wall it happens to me again and this time in blackness. Its like something is throwing me side to side (its a seriously intense feeling!! as its happening i am trying to focus extremely hard to try and be still. i cant remember anything after that... could someone try and interpret my experience? thanks 

really good answers, i understand more now, thanks a lot guys!

cool thanks for the replies, and what about the 'thinking' teleporting thing. usually you can just think yourself to places right? say if you wanted to go to the moon all you would have to do is think, or is there more to this?

Last night I became lucid in a dream. I deliberatly came out of the dream to have an obe. So I woke up and then started feeling the vibrations and heard all sorts. Usually I hear static, like TV static, it was the same but this time i was hearing a lot of voices, like off an old radio station - this is why I am questioning the experience. Anyway I started coming of my body and went through the wall infront of me, but as I came out of the other side of the wall I entered into my old living room where I used to live about 5 years ago.. is that normal, was this a dream? From their I said affirmations to try to calm me down like 'clarity now' and stuff, and then I tried thinking myself to somewhere else but I wasnt moving. Just thought id get your opinions and what it really was?  thanks

this doesn't sound like an obe, but what usually happens in dreams and text... when your not lucid, the dream words are usually set out for you and you will read them almost 'unconsciously' but when your lucid in a dream and fully consciously/focus on text, it becomes very very unstable and words will change or dissapear. But it can also be used as a lucid trigger.

Actually, anything that gives you the sensation that you are not laying in bed can be regarded as an OOBE.  Notice that the term is pragmatic.  It does not affirm that one really leaves the body, it merely indicates that it is an EXPERIENCE.

OOBE = Out-of-body EXPERIENCE

In a lucid dream (and even the non-lucid ones for that matter), your awareness appears to be focusing elsewhere other than your physical body.

The astral projection term was made redundant by me because it is just misleading as projection experiences have nothing to do with "astral/celestial bodies" like stars and planets.  The world encountered is closer to the waking world than anything else and no different to a lucid dream (I don't care if people say it's different because it isn't - it is the same realm but we are the ones who perceive it in various degrees of awareness).

To conclude, the term Phase is very appropriate. To me it is all the same in three years of experience.  There is no difference.  It appears that one enters the realm of thoughts upon a separation from the body.  You enter the Phase, a different state of consciousness...period.

There is no astral or ethereal in my vocabulary.  It appears that one enters the realm of thoughts:  it includes dreams, imagination, memories, thoughts of possibilities and anything that your mind can conceive.  Even a seemingly accurate version of the physical realm (so-called RTZ) which could be nothing but a memory and manifestation from an active left side of the brain instead of the right one.  You want a spirit guide?  You'll get one!  Your mind can create anything whilst fully convincing you of its reality.  You can manifest things unconsciously while the conscious mind has no idea that it is completely subjective and concocted by its own psyche.  Want to play games in the Phase as though you are actually in them?  Imagine Quake or Gears of War in 3D!  You can!  What you imagine consciously, your mind can do a thousand times better unconsciously...

My two cents.

yeah ive had loads of video-game-induced-dreams, there a lot of fun!

See, the thing here is... you shouldn't be asking us that question.  Because, honestly... we can't tell you one way or the other.
You should be asking YOURSELF. 

In the end, does it matter if it was a guide or not?  Would that change how you react to any information gained from the "being" in question?

For now, my suggestion, is not to worry about what you meet as being of a particular label or whatnot... just accept the information, write it down... log it all, until the day comes that you can look back on those logs and definitively say one way or the other what it is (personal truth though). 

good point 

yeah thats interesting to think of, how some spirit guides could be a full manisfestation of your mind, although i would have never thought of her  unless my subconcious says otherwise. thanks anyway, great answer

There are many different beliefs as to what will happen in 2012. And well, every one is allowed to have their own opinions and we'll have to wait till the time comes to see who is right. What i'll say is completely my own opinion and if you agree with me thanks. If not than bonk off hater.

One night while meditating with my skull on finding out information, it led me to a vision. In my vision i saw earth, only is wasn't earth we are on at this moment. It was NEW earth after 2012. The energy was intense, clear and pure. Love was all around.

As days progress at this moment the energy of earth is decreasing rapidly. Each day seems a little bit more gray and depressing than the last. Forests aren't at lively as they were a year ago. Hate and anger is all around. I'm 15, and in my life time i have seen everything from twin towers getting knocked down by hijacked planes, a terrorist hiding in a cave, to things like the first black president.

Getting back on track, earth goes through different stages. Each stage is ranged greatly. The stages are of each element. Earth, fire, air, and water. Only there's a fifth element. Spirit. In 2012 it is predicted that earth will leave the current elemental stage and enter spirit.

i think you hit the nail right on the head.

In my waking life i used to live in a flat since i was about 2 years old, i moved out about 4 years ago. but this morning, i seemed to have woken up in my astral or dream body form out of my old bunk bed i used to have as a child. Positive in my mind that i was astral projecting i looked at the bed to see if i could see myself, i could not see my physical body but i could see the indents of it on my bed and the moving around on my bed if you know what i mean (maybe it was the person who lives there now?. so anyway i start to say 'clarity now' and calm myself down in hope to have a more steady prolonged experience. i have been wanting to call for my spirit guide for a long time so i call out for her/him. immeadiatley she appears, a small girl, looks around the same age as me maybe a bit older. i give her a hug straight away. she doesnt seem very happy... she says i am not a tool to use (or something along those lines), i say of course not, i only wanted to meet you. I ask for her name she says Rachel. and i ask how long she has been watching over me and she says 15 years (im 18). i say wow, and from then i think i start to wake up.

so what are your guys thoughts? was it a dream or was i in an astral form? i mean im starting to question all reality now, dreams sometimes dont even seem to be 'just dreams', its like the dream world is an actual dimension of its own with its own dream body. and maybe sometimes we use other bodies which we dont even know about! such as the etheric body or some kind of unkown astral body, anyway excited to hear your thoughts as you guys will have more knowledge about spirit guides than i do, i have read something that you can also meet your spirit guides in meditation and dreams other than just the astral realm. thanks
