Astral Projection Techniques
I have been trying to Astral Project
I feel like I am getting very close to being able to actually do it...
All kinds of weird sensations, and vibrations occur, but ultimately, so far anyway I have not quite popped out!
I have bought an mp3 and and researching as much as I can. and I found these that seem to at least address someof my issues....anyway would love to discuss your experiences : ) Even get some tips maybe : )
Blessings
f you feel like you've been trying Astral Projection techniques for a long time and seem to be getting nowhere, you may need to review your techniques and adjust accordingly.
The following are what I see as the most common mistakes people make while trying their Astral Projection techniques. While these really aren't "mistakes" because they work for some people, they do seem to slow progress down.

1. Trying at night. If you try astral projection at night, especially before you go to bed, nine times out of ten, you will fall asleep. You've had a long day, your body is worn out, so how can you expect to achieve Focus 10 or Focus 12 (body asleep, mind awake)? You need to either try earlier in the afternoon, or switch to weekends when you can sleep in. If you switch to the weekends and use, for example, my technique that I wrote about under the Astral Projection link called "My Favorite Technique" then you're very relaxed and can slip back into sleep, yet the mind is refreshed and more likely to get into Focus 10. Try it and see.
2. Fear. Are you afraid you are going to die? That someone will cut your cord? You'll be possessed? Any of these fears will keep you thinking about this, and not letting yourself project. Always address your fears before expecting any results.
3. Inner dialog. Are you talking the whole time? Saying things like, "Is this right?" or "I wonder if I'm close?" To induce the vibrations, you have to have no thoughts. Your thoughts need to be narrowed down to a single thread. When you are trying to get your body asleep, stop talking to yourself and "listen". Listen to the faint ring in your head, but don't analyze it. Listen, but don't talk. When I induce the vibrations, my body has fallen asleep, the ringing has faded (because now I'm asleep), and I'm gently focusing on my third eye. All my thoughts are gone. This takes a while to master, but is necessary. Also, if you do slip off onto other thoughts, just let that happen, but gently pull your thoughts back to the single thread and keep focusing on your third eye.
4. Not understanding relaxation vs. body asleep. I get mails all the time from people saying that they are trying to astral project with their eyes open! To leave your body, you have to reduce the magnetic pull to the point that separation can occur. All things electrical create a magnetic pull. Even thinking sends out electronic pulses and creates magnetism. Pulse and heart rate also creates energy. Do not confuse "relaxation" with Focus 10. Focus 10 is Body Asleep. You have to learn how to fall asleep physically, but keep your consciousness from slipping into a dream. When the body falls asleep, everything slows down which reduces your bodies magnetic pull. Then, if you can master the "no thought" part, the vibrations will rush in. And when they do, you still have to keep your thoughts to a minimum because the excitement will increase the heart and pulse rate and then you'll be sending me mails saying that you can only raise your astral arms or legs! Most of the primary chakras are in the head and torso region which is why your head is the last to separate. So excited thoughts only make it harder. As my guide told me, "Get out of your head!" To tell if your body is asleep, you should no longer feel it, shouldn't be able to hear, and hypnogogic imagery will start appearing. Don't fight the images, just don't let them take over or you'll start to dream. Always gently bring your consciousness back to the project at hand.
5. Impatience. Conscious astral projection can take months or even years to accomplish. If you are expecting results in days or weeks, you will more than likely give up or doubt its existence. Astral projection takes discipline, dedication, and a ton of patience. It will happen, but be prepared for the long haul. It's worth the wait and effort.
These five are the top reasons, but others can include not removing distractions (kids, pets, phones, spouses), or not getting enough sleep so that when you do sleep you sleep like a log and can't keep the mind awake. Good luck with your Astral Projection techniques.

y'all better not project in my house. Last thing I need to see is an unexpected 'guest' when I'm walking around in my boxers half awake. I have lead paint on my house, not even superman can see in here.
I don't know if I can astral project, I can leave my body sometimes but that leaves me unprotected if I'm all alone. Is astral projecting safer? Is it similar? And is there a high demand for fresh bodies without an occupant? I have been attacked a lot when I step out for a stroll, what's the story with that?

Hello Vanese,
I'm not sure if this is the answer you're looking for, but it may just help you.
Astral "projection" is a bit of a misnomer. The process doesn't actually consist of your consciousness "leaving the body" at all. Quite the contrary.
If you are expecting to "pop out" and go flying off to see Aunt Mabel on Cleveland, you're just going to be frustrated with your efforts.
The point of most esoteric exercises and meditation in general is to teach your conscious mind to be under total control while the peripheral nervous system (your senses) shut down. Only by disconnecting the reasoning mind from the distractions of outside input can someone ever hope to "tap in" to the cosmic mind, akashic record, underground stream, Poimandres or whatever you choose to call it. This is the true aim of astral projection, to project your consciousness INWARD and access information available to you but otherwise muddied by distractions.
In that state you can choose to visualize your "soul" leaving the body, but you can also visualize talking to a purple hippo in a top hat - both are simply constructs of your mind.
Reaching this state is quite illuminating.
Everyone has experienced the phenomenon when you're relaxing quietly in bed, half way between sleeping and waking, and POW!, out of nowhere you get a flash of inspiration about a problem or question you had. Now, imagine that feeling times 1000 and it's fully controllable. The rest of the world disappears and you simply "tap IN" to something within yourself.
At that point you will never need another book or guru to follow, you can now teach yourself more than they could ever show you.
Getting to that state is actually pretty easy, though VERY few people can do it without outside help. The ancient mysteries knew this and built various underground chambers to help with the process. They simply acted as sensory deprivation tanks and were used in conjunction with entheogens to attain the transcendent state.
Fortunately we live in the age of technology and can simply use a floatation tank to achieve much the same thing. There are many places which offer hourly rates to rent one of these chambers, and using one in conjunction with your meditations would be the greatest step forward you could make.
I wish you the best.

Using a copper pyramid to meditate inside of I hear works really well, because it blocks out that EM radiation and pollution. Sitting in them with your head approx 2/3 the way up inside for maximum effect.

Are these "orbs" those balls of light from others' projecting? If not, does anyone really know what the orbs are? I ruled out dust and light reflection. Some appear to have a face inside of them when zoomed in.
When I have left the body I have appeared to myself to look like myself, and I have been attacked by things I choose not to describe. The physical body shields us from so many things I didn't realise existed. Is astral projection dangerous? Can it be?
