Welcome to Members Introductions! / I used to project and I am her...
Last post by questfinder - April 12, 2025, 20:22:16Hi everybody, I hope this place is still active. I was a natural projector, but life got in the way, and I lost my skills. But I hope to regain it with some serious training.
I looked if it was possible to join a group in my city where people interested in AP would actually meet and try together. It would really have helped to find fellow (aspiring) travellers. So, since that's not happening, I was wondering if there are still some people here interested in forming a virtual group where we can monitor our progress, check each other for updates, maybe even have a meditative session with Zoom. You see, I think people tend to lose motivation when alone, especially with meditative practices. There's a reason monasteries are communal places. A group can help you get really disciplined. Do you think it's a good idea?
I'm looking forward to know you

Dream and Projection Journals / Re: tides2dust
Last post by tides2dust - April 09, 2025, 17:19:32Quote from: tides2dust on March 16, 2024, 07:29:19I go to the backyard, it's not as sunny as it was in the first projection. And there's no rainy snow anymore either. It's nighttime and I'm standing in the backyard and get the idea to use the CE5 contact method while in the astral. Right away I am feeling assistance. A part of me is almost nervous for how much more powerful I am feeling and witnessing the experience. I ask the guides to help me broadcast the milky way galaxy in my minds eye. I see it in ways I've never seen it before. I instantly channel it down into our universe, to our planet, to my continent, and into my backyard.
I feel as if there are 3 or 4 beings with me now.
Suddenly the white dalmatian puppy I saw in the initial attempt is here with me by my side. I am a bit perplexed why it still chose the dalmatian form. I am asking if it is because I am not ready to see this being in its true form. At this point in the experience everything has become extremely heavy. Like it's difficult to be in this state.
In fact the dalmatian puppy only appears in my peripherals to my right side and kind of like a blur image. Like there's some wall between us. And I wasn't asking directly but I was asking telepathically, almost like a conversation with my self. The puppy is trying to push forward and I am trying to accept it more and more into my field. I intuit that this is as good as it's going to get for now, that I am not ready to see the true form. I believe this being relays this to me before I wake up again. I am somewhat contesting with these beings who happen to be observing that I AM ready and want to see, but a part of me deep down knows that's not true.
I had another contact experience take place again in the backyard. This time I was less lucid, that is to mean, I did not feel other beings observing me and I did not have telepathic communication with the beings responsible for the unique manifestation.
This time, instead of appearing to me as a dalmatian- the beings chose a baby deer the size of a horse with ram horns. It again appeared in my backyard. It again felt more real than a dream, like a meeting place. Although I desire to see the Beings in their true form, they continue to communicate with me in ways I can comprehend and in ways that do not disturb.
I guess, more important than seeing these beings as they truly are, is the message they wish to impart. I suppose that would be the same for us if we were trying to teach a child something important.
In this "in between" contact experience... Between wake and sleep- the hybrid animal was huddled up against the fence line. My girl dog was excited by it and barking at it- I had to bring the dalmatian back inside the house. Thats when the deer hybrid stood up and placed its snout in my palm. I opened the backyard door and let it out. It was a peaceful contact.
I believe the symbolism here is to reflect on the blending of masculine and feminine energies. I think I carry both of these within me, and a desire to embrace the lessons that come with the body I was born into(born a man).

Welcome to Astral Projection Experiences! / Re: Souly for Retrievals!
Last post by Yesmar00 - April 09, 2025, 07:58:59Thank you for this. I was wondering why her name sounded familiar and its because I have her book on thought forms and occult chemistry. I'll definitely give that talk a listen. I enjoy her and leadbeaters books.
I really appreciate the instruction and guidance. I have started reading ginnys posts too and I really enjoy them. Thanks again for the help! I am nervous I won't lie to you but when I question myself and ask if I'm ready, I get a very strong "yes" so I'll trust it and move forward. I think my helpers know the type of instruction that I need so I'm looking forward to it.

Last post by Lumaza - April 08, 2025, 17:09:56 Yesmar, it sounds like you are "ripe for the picking". If I had a choice in the decision I would indeed say "welcome aboard"! 
Like can be read in this entire thread, there are number of instances wherein whoever is sharing their story or posting here speaks about a "progression" of sorts. That kind of progression is necessary though it can be slow at times. there are some things you need to handle first and learn first.
#1, amongst the most important is to handles any fears you may have of the NPRs. Not everything you see there will be "rainbows and unicorns". There are some souls there that are incredibly deep in their torments.
#2, for Retrievals that is, is to learn to control your own emotions and not to just act on instinct. Give the scenario a chance to reveal itself first. For myself, in the beginning of my Retrieval experiences, I would act right away and many times be in the dark about what to do. Once I slowed down and passively observed the soul that wished to move on, I was shown a "review" of sorts on the soul that was to be retrieved. That was incredibly helpful in showing me a direction I should take to accomplish the duty at hand.
#3 Allow the teachers to teach.
As you get deeper in you will find there is always something new to learn there. It is a school just as this physical realm here is!
There was a member here years ago named "Ginny" that was quite proficient with Retrievals. Her posts were great. I learned a lot from reading her threads and also a good amount by listening to seminars by Bruce Moen. I have to give Kurt Leland a lot of credit as well. He introduced me to a phenomenal lady from the early 1900's named "Annie Besant". You can find some of Kurt's talks on YouTube. Annie Besant explains the concept of an "Invisible Helper" in great detail, all the way down to the personality traits of those who wish to be or are already one.
My goal when I learned the Art of non-physical exploration was to do something good with what I learned. My first retrieval experience was a shock to me. I had used a direct technique to shift and was conscious during the entire session. I think it was a test of sorts. It was so extreme. I barely had time to think. Impulse kicked in though. After the fact, I learned it was a retrieval.
Here is Kurt's seminar on Annie Besant. I have listened to it almost 10 times now and each time, I learn something new from it. It is that good!

Welcome to Astral Projection Experiences! / Re: Souly for Retrievals!
Last post by Yesmar00 - April 08, 2025, 08:25:04Thank you everyone for your kind words! Being on this forum has been necessary guidance for me and I greatly appreciate it. I can be stubborn and I have really been learning to listen to my intuition which led me here.
I have been asking here and there but nothing major or consistent. I've mostly been asking to be prepared for the work. I've been going through a very powerful growing process in the last few months being prepared for something. I believe one of those things is this kind of work. It's been on my heart for a while and I need to listen to that.
I have had dreams and woke up thinking "I wonder if this was a training session or a rescue?"
A few months ago I had a dream where I was with this little child. He was probably around 8-9 and I don't remember where I was or how we connected but I do remember having certain feelings about what to do with this situation. I don't think I've ever been to a place like this in my dreams at least I don't remember. My journal has never included a location of this type.
I asked him what year it was and he said 1800 something. I remember feeling a lot of compassion for him and I showed him some of our cool technology. I told him that the year was 2025. I showed him some smart phones, TVs and more. It became a fun "show and tell". He seemed happy but I don't remember how it ended. Although this was a dream I really feel like this was an intro class in a way.
I will make requests every night and take this seriously. I don't know why it's be on my heart so much but I feel that this is something I need to do for my growth and to help others. When I was a Christian I used to do bible studies with people so that they could be "saved" and I really like that type of work. I was never one to judge and I just wanted people to be happy and experience forgiveness. At one point in time I wanted to be a doctor but I chose this path instead and I think there is a reason for that. I'm a bit nervous but I'm also very excited to see where this goes. I'll post updates and again thanks to everyone for commenting. You're all very helpful souls and I enjoy your discourse.

Last post by Volgerle - April 08, 2025, 08:02:48Quote from: Yesmar00 on April 07, 2025, 14:04:03How can I initiate retrieval work?EscapeVelocity and Lumaza have already given great answers and I have not much to add to it and would only repeat most of it.
I have been projecting for a few years and recently I've been developing a phasing adjacent technique which isn't really new and is very open ended. It's mostly bilocation related which has been interesting to learn but again very open ended so it's been a process. I feel that I'm very close to using this for consistent projections. I've recently learned that a medication I'm taking is making evening projections very challenging because of my sleep cycle so this has been really fun to learn.
I feel that I'm starting to move in a new direction as I advance in my development overall especially these last few months. Something that's been on my heart for a while now is doing retrieval work. There are a few dreams I've had that I believe to be introductions (one of which involved a child from the 1800s).
I think that emotionally I'm ready to help in any way I can. How did you guys start this work? I don't even know where to begin except asking for help from guides or other light beings.
Maybe one thing I could add although only as a sidenote: When you have put out your earnest request look out for a response or 'signs' in any way. They will come, maybe only after a while. They can come in dreams and in the physical. I had quite a few of these signs in dreams and 'waking life' telling me that I was 'enrolled' in the program to learn/do/help retrieve.

Last post by EscapeVelocity - April 08, 2025, 00:14:29YesmarOO,
Initiating retrieval work may take some time and further work, or you may be already prepared for it. Like Lumaza wrote, it is a decision made by intelligences on the Other Side, the Non-Physical (NP). It does involve how much preparatory work you have done in balancing and controlling your emotions both here in the Physical and in the Non-Physical. It is a form of emotional maturity and mental discipline.
Like Lumaza mentioned, his very excellent thread Souly for Retrievals is a good place to start, reading through the whole thing. Many clues and insights are to be found here.
Beyond reading about others' experiences is also the kindness, patience and discipline you display in your daily life and recognizing how that reflects within your Non-Physical existence, your dreams and astral activities.
Given that fairly simple framework, it is simply a matter of making your request known 'to be of Service to the Multiverse and the Greater Good of Humanity and Existence'...or words to that effect.
Make yourself available, ask to become an Invisible Helper, ask to become involved in the Retrieval Process...make these declarations in the form of a nightly prayer or affirmation. Do it every night and during daytime moments of reflection; if you are truly serious, do it for as long as it takes to get a response.
It is really that simple and straightforward. But it does require commitment.

Last post by EscapeVelocity - April 07, 2025, 23:55:52Volgerle, let me add my condolences to your loss and thank you for the wonderful sharing of the experience of those years; many of us have and will necessarily undergo similar difficult times as we assist family and friends through these transitions.
The Trainers at Monroe you mentioned- They all seem to excel in their specific teaching methods: Sciambarella, I have only seen one video on, but he was quite impressive. Tappe is a new name for me and i look forward to reading his book. Paul Elder, I have personal experience with, having done two Monroe courses with him...a wonderful and excellent person, his book is highly recommended.
My best thoughts for you, V
