Thanks for the pic of the island - I was wondering what it looked like as I could not find it on the web anywhere.  Kinda new to all this stuff.

Can someone tell me what "sticky" means?

Also, once I learn to project to where I actually want to go, as opposed to just sorta floating around which is what I do now ...  anyone up for a drumming/dancing session on API?  Imagine the vibrations we could create What an incredible world rhythm that would be!

One last thing - can anyone tell me how to save API as screensaver?  I'm technologically challenged.  Thanks.

Selski and Nick  thanks for the welcome.  I have been reviewing the forum for several days now and the wealth of information is overwhelming; it will take me weeks, perhaps months to digest.  What a welcome relief to find so many fellow seekers.

I have read your post with great interest.  Tell me, at what point in this sequence of events - i.e. beginning, middle, end - did you have the lucid dream where you "saw the tentacles" burst out of your sister's head after you had the uncontrollable urge to strangle her.

The reason I'm asking is that it may be possible you created or "gave astral birth" to an entity that only you can call back.  If you have not read Dion Fortune's ancient book on Psychic Self Defense you may want to.

She discusses a situation where she accidentally, through anger if I am remembering correctly, created a wolf-like astral creature that entered her bedroom in the physical plane.  

The entity stayed around for a few days, growing in strength and physical presence until she sought advice from fellow (more experienced) magicians who advised her that since she created it, she must draw it back into herself.  I am not suggesting you do this as it surely dangerous since you don't know exactly what you are dealing with or even whether or not you accidentally created it, but it may help you to read some of her works.

There are numerous books available on psychic self defense, but Dion Fortune was I believe one of the few women in the Golden Dawn, was a mystic for about 28 years, then became a magician.  Most of her theories are based in what some would call "Christian concepts", light-work, etc. but are very well researched.

Also I suggest if you have tried all the other methods, smudging, white light, crystals, asking your guides to protect you, lining your window sills and door thresholds with sea salt, circling your bed with salt in the morning - not at night - and none of those worked, then try this simple thing below.  As a last resort it worked for me.

Take holy water and/or holy oil - like from a Greek Orthodox church or whatever denomination you choose - some place where you see the Priest bless it - place a dab of oil in each corner of each door, window and mirror or spray same with holy water.  

If you have large mirrors in your bedroom, anoint them first then cover them with a sheet or towel.  I eventually had to remove a large mirror from my house because it seemed to be a portal.  Yes .... I know this may sound pretty far fetched to some but ya gotta do whatever works for you, right?  Before you go to bed draw in white and gold light, create a sphere not only around you but around your house, loved ones, even your yard.  Then ask your guides to protect you and allow you to rest peacefully, safely without harm.  And thank them.

If this doesn't work, then ask the #@%$ thing what it wants, tell it you leave you alone.  If you have to, stand up and scream "THIS IS MY SACRED SPACE AND YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE - LEAVE NOW".  Refuse to be bullied.  Blast it with energy if you have to.  But always keep yourself wrapped in gold and white light.

If this doesn't work, then you will need to do some serious research, and perhaps ceremonial magick to banish it.  What happened on the days before it first appeared.  Did you purchase something used, like from an antique store or a yard sale?  Objects, particularly hand crafted items, hold energy and can cause some very unusual things to happen.

Did you fire off a really powerful blast of anger at someone?  Did you go into or come out of meditation without grounding properly?  What brought this thing to you and where did it come from?

Good luck.

Hello - I discovered this web a few days ago after ordering and receiving the Mastering Astral Projection book and was just wondering if any other newbies here have been working with the book?  We are starting a small study group (to keep each other motivated and compare progress notes) but would like to meet others who are just starting this journey.

Mike why would you practice magic intended to cause harm to another, and then be surprised when that "magic" boomerang came back to you in even greater force than you had unleashed?

Moonburn is it the LBRP that protects you, or your belief in the protection of the LBRP that protects you?

Thanks again.  I will check all the other sites you've provided.

Just curious (and tell me if I'm being nosey), but the times I've projected it seemed to be without cause or reason.  Only twice have I found myself in a place I recognized and I'm still not sure if it is because of this recent calling to a metaphysical path and spiritual enlightenment, i.e. was I drawn there by someone else, or did I choose to go there ...

My question is, what does one aspire to achieve through AP?  Remote viewing, connection with the Devine, more intimate knowledge of one's guides, access to universal knowledge, or something practical like getting a peek at next week's winning lotto numbers?

Also, I have recently begun to "feel" energy from inanimate objects in the palms of my hands, which I am assuming are chakras.  I don't know if I am receiving or transmitting, or both.  From what I am reading on the many many posts/forums my energy awareness should increase.  If that's the case, then will I be able to block energy that I don't want to receive?  Your thoughts?

Thanks for your response.  I checked out the web and there is just too much stufffff so I requested a printed catalog.  Have you had any experience with any of the programs, goggles, headphones, cds etc that they offer?  I will also check the forum for posts regarding same.  Thanks Potential!

Hello - I'm a newbie, this is my first post.  

I purchased the book last week and it finally arrived today.  I have been doing/having? (rather haphazardly) OBEs off and on for several years and find myself in the strangest places.  Sometimes I recognize them, and sometimes I find them months later.  So .... I was thrilled to see this book in Llewellyn, along with Carls write up and interview re same.  

Question:  the light goggles mentioned on page 4 and 18; where/how do I purchase them and is there a particular brand you can recommend?  I live in a pretty distracting neighborhood and need all the help I can get to learn to focus (or not) on relaxing.

Thanks - I'm looking forward to getting started as soon as possible!
