Greetings all!

[Psilibus]

I have been a lurker here on and off for several years. I usually browse here as a source of motivation and inspiration. I thought I would break my silence as it is my intention to focus deeply on the astral experience. I have found it can be very difficult to find anyone to discuss or even consider such topics as are found here. I hope that in the coming months and years I may find MORE than what I was looking for.
I have practiced projection and lucid dreaming for over thirty years. I have consciously projected many dozens of times over the years, my first when I was eight years old. I have never projected to the "astral" realm that I am aware of and that is going to be my goal for the remaining years of my life. Lucid dreaming is one of my favorite pastimes and I am most adept at that.
I find the posts here to be supportive and well meaning. I look forward to learning from others and possibly contributing ideas which will be helpful to others as well. Thank you and I look forward to meeting some new friends!

Hi Psilibus!

It is very nice to meet you!
You sound like you have lots of incredible knowledge to share with us!

It's always nice to put a name to a lurker. 

Would you be surprised if I was to tell you that everytime you've had a Lucid Dream... you've also been Astral Projecting?
It's my belief that Dreaming, Lucid Dreaming and Astral Projection all happen in the same place, the only difference is how "aware" you are.

Please do share your experiences with us.

Hello Xanth!

No, not surprised at all about what you said. I see you understood what I meant by "aware". I am pretty well read on this subject through many various authors. It is the practice that must be put to action now.

Thank you for the greeting. I will be relating my experiences as I go along and also a bit of history where proper. If I feel I may be safe to interject a helpful word I will do that as well.

Enjoy the day!
