Everyone has some idea of what astral projection is, even if we don?t usually truly understand it. You?ve almost certainly seen it in a film or read about it somewhere. You?ve probably even heard it discussed among people you know. Even though you may have some vague concept of it, you probably didn?t know that it?s something that you ? and everyone else in the world can do and have done before, even if you didn?t know it.

So what exactly happens during astral projection? When you astral project, your astral body comes out from your physical form. Most often this happens during sleep when your body is resting. Your conscious mind rests while you sleep too; but the subconscious is still going strong ? and it is the source of your astral body which then leaves your body and goes out exploring the universe.

Many children actually astral project without being aware of what they are doing. It happens usually when the body is relaxed or even when they are asleep. Time and distance do not mean anything when talking about astral projection. The astral body can travel without these considerations.

Let?s explain the astral body. This is an invisible and non-physical version of your physical body which is the product of your will and your subconscious desires. Your astral body always comes home to your physical one because of an unbreakable bond between them which is called the silver cord.

The astral body is immediately connected to the physical body upon entering it with this silver cord, this cord cannot ever be broken except through death. This cord actually protects the physical body from losing the astral body.

Another question that is often asked is where the astral body travels to when a person engages in astral projection. The astral body moves along the astral plane. This is, as the astral body is a duplicate for the physical, a duplicate of the physical world. There are a number of ways that it can be described. In some descriptions, it is described as a set of vibrations, which penetrate physical reality but are at a wavelength that separates it from the physical world. It can also be described as a secondary reality or another dimension. What is agreed upon with the descriptions is that there are multiple levels to the astral plane.

Even though your astral body will always return to you and you are at no danger of physical harm while astral projecting, you should exercise caution since there are some dangers in the astral plane. As long as you use common sense and basic caution though, you?ll be safe.

Let me caution you here, if your mind is in a dark place or not right then it becomes dangerous to astral project. If you are taking drugs or drinking alcohol it is not wise to astral project because you could wind up in some bad places. The lower levels of the astral plane contain the places that are bad.

This is why it is so important that you know exactly what you are doing and where you are planning to go. The goal you are trying to achieve is not just astral projecting, but conscious astral projection where you are aware of what is going on.

If you have the right assistance to prepare yourself, learning astral projection can be easy and even possible to do in a short time. There are professionals who offer lessons, but most people prefer to practice this natural talent in their own home.

The internet is a good place to find help with your astral projection training. Especially good are astral projection hypnosis recordings. These recordings are designed to help you achieve the meditative state needed to astral project. A lot of people prefer these recordings to one on one lessons since they can be listened to repeatedly until their subliminal messages reach the subconscious and your body reaches a state of total relaxation.

A new audio recording technology called binaural beats has been shown to help people astral project as well. The listener hears two slightly different frequencies, one in each ear and the effect of these sounds is deep relaxation as the listener?s brainwaves tune into just the right frequency for astral projection.

If you are unable to astral project at first, do not be concerned. It is something that requires practice to be able to do. It is important to remember that this is not actually an acquired skill but something that is already known to each person. They simply need to remember how to astral project and then to practice in order to obtain a level of proficiency.

Do you still not totally believe this is for real? Well have you ever had dreams that you were flying or had the sensation of falling? The flying was your astral body actually traveling through the various astral planes. The sensation of falling is the astral body coming back to the physical body after it traveling around. Astral projection really exists! Take time to tune your natural abilities and you will see that anyone has the abilities to perform this and reap the benefits from it.
