can you project somewhere important to you?

[Tongo]

whenever I attempt to project I always try and invisage a place first, a real place that meant a lot to me as a kid and for most of my life, a place of course which is real and exists. I hope when I do finally project I could find myself out of my physical body in this place where I have always felt comfortable in and felt peace.

Would my strong desire to be in this place whether it be for real in the RTZ or a minds re-creation, actually end up me leaving my physical body and somehow finding my astral consciousness there somehow?

Has any person here tried this in an OBE attempt? what happened did you actually leave your body and find yourself there somehow?

Most of the material available suggests this idea.
You ideally need to know the place inside out and feel safe. It helps keep your mind away from fear. You KNOW its safe and it will be exactly that.
Keep going, you're on the right track.

Hey Tongo, I moved to the states 10 years ago and I get home sick very frequently. Because of that a lot of my projections end up in my childhood house where my mom still lives and I visit physically every other year. It holds a lot of sweet memories and sometimes I go there intentionally, sometimes I just end up there. I feel a tremendous satisfaction every time, especially knowing that I am traveling non-physically. It feels extraordinary. I also have a very special place on the coast of the Black Sea where we went every year in the summer as a child with my family. I have gone there several times and it looked exactly as I remembered it but the excitement was many times stronger because of the nostalgia and the memories and the fact that I was able to re-live these times again. So, good luck, it definitely is not a difficult thing to do while OBEing.

Yes.

When I first started projecting I used to visit my girlfriend quite often.

These days I seem to be visiting places that are important to me... you will find also that when you start projecting all your experiences wherever they take place will be important to you.

That's AP 101.

You have to have intent like Xanth says.  I was thinking about this recently and it is true.  I used to be able to go to places and see people.  I used my intent by going through a door, wall or window and I expected to see that person or to be at that place.  I was determined to succeed and I mostly did.  You do not have to go through walls etc. but it can be easier to get that intent or determination.
