What astral feels like?

[alwaysconfusedlol]

Ok rite now, i obviously know that i am not dreaming, and can tell a difference from a dream and being awake. I have never astral projected and i am just beginning to try and lucid dream so i am very new. I am just wondering, after one astral projects, i am picturing it feel like a lucid dream (because i have done one is the past)....or do you just feel like your waking self? Because i really cant imagine it at all until it happens. But like i said if i remember a lucid dream i know that it doesn't really feel like a memory i had as if i was doing something while i was awake if you get what im saying. Can anyone clarify on what it is like while astral projecting?

Work on Astral projecting and learn for yourself, the rest is wasting your time

While there is a certain feel to it, the level of clarity of yourself affects how much you perceive it.

I'm not sure if i want to lol, its kind of weird and almost scary when i think about it lol. With all this talk about demons and stuff which make me not want to do it. Like seriously, if it feels like how you normally feel when your awake, and i see some weird being. Id sh** my pants lol.

No demons, there are "evil" things out there, that can get in your head....Yeah. But you should be fine if someone talks you through it, or does it with you.

There is nothing to worry about, the astral exists whether you are conscious(Awake there) or asleep(dreaming). So all your life you have had the same level of danger there.

So, i tried it last night for the first time. And i herd that people usually vibrate or something, but i started to like throb almost....like a hearth beat but my whole body, and i don't think this is normally. I also saw a really bright light flash in front of my eyes. After i stopped trying, the throbbing feeling stayed there for about a minute then went away. Can anyone explain why this happened?

I wasn't trying to do it though.

All those sensations are normal. One technique to astral project is to concentrate on your heart beat. The beat often feels as if it spreads to your entire body. So that is normal and it occurs more the closer you get to sleep. The degree and type of sensations vary for everyone but I get the same 'throbbing' sensations you mention. You will often notice the throbbing speed up, this is normal to, it is not your actual heart speeding up. Unless you get scared in which case your heart will speed up to the same when you get scared normally.

As you get closer to sleep you can start seeing random images and lights, it is normal again. The same thing happens when you normally go to sleep but you are just not paying any attention to it and you don't see it.

Keep trying and don't be afraid, projecting is the same as falling asleep, you just notice what is happening.

i also do astral travel while in awake state but during meditation and it takes alot of concentration, as far as feeling something you will definately feel something, i astral traveled to another galaxy and was introduced to a plaedian and when he came towards me and gave me a hug i felt an overwelming surge of energy and love come from him, of course you have to be protected before doing this otherwise you will attract negative entities who are attracted to the light depending on how strong your auric field is, i however had archangel michael with me.

I've had flashing, white lights as well - I once contacted Erin about them and she told me it was because I was "Awakening", in a way. I forgot the exact words she used. But they're always pleasant when I see them.

I have never done it but I believe I am ready to do it because I have come to the conclusion that there is more to life then what we see. So can anyone guide me in how to do it, because I would love to learn. Should I pray before leaving my body even though I do that any way? Is there a specific prayer I should do before leaving?

Hi Destine
I dont do alot of astral traveling but the first few times I did do it i was scared out of my wits as to what would happen, so in the end, I asked my spirit guides to help guide and protect me as i left my body and to walk with me into this new experience, it was a prayer of sorts realy, it sorta went like this "I ask my guides to help my astral body leave my physical body and move into the astral realm. I ask that they guide and protect me throughout my journey and that when I am ready to return they are there to bring me gently back to my physical world. I ask that they help me remember my adventure on my return". Something like that anyways, i actualy did this as I was lying down. I knew I was ready when i felt this blackness over come me, then the vibrations rippling through me and then it was like i was being lifted out of my body. I logged it in my dream journal as soon as i woke up. It was great. I still cant travel on whim but every now and again i either OBE or Astral project and I as soon as I become aware of it i ask my guides to help and protect me on my journey too and from wherever I am going.

Hope you have an enjoyable experience.

luv and strobelites

I just bought a book that teaches people how to leave their body but I don't think I am ready yet . It is not that I am scared , it's just that I am trying to figure out how to use my mind and my energy. You see I just did a spiritual cleansing and I'm now learning about my bodies power aka my Chakra's. I feel I should take things one step at a time I don't have to rush anything. But thank you so much for that message!
