Yes I know what you mean. It could be because the mind/consciousness becomes better acquainted and familiar with the astral realm after a few experiences. That results in clearer perceptions and fewer distortions. Experienced projectors are also better at remaining calm and relaxed.
Of late my I've found that my Astral Travels have become very vivid in their feel and atmosphere. Things that haven't appeared in the past have started to appear as in a sense of touch, being able to feel warmth. This occurred recently(past few weeks) as I met up with my friend, who's my twin soul, on the other side of the world physically.
I've only had this in the past once before 5 years ago in a not so nice experience at the time under the influence of substances by association. This time there has been nothing of this type around and I seem to be able to do this on my own. Somewhere I have found a source of energy to help with this, yet I'm not sure actacly where from.
Anyone else find a similar circumstance as you become further developed with the astral travel? Does it become more vivid, or is it just me?
