Question for Experienced Astral Projectors

I have been tamering with astral projection for a year now, and have become nervous and excited about the possibilities of this. I have come close to actual projection, but was either disturbed and lost concentration or I become frightened when my breathing became abnormal. I have developed anxiety about dying from tampering with this. I know you can't die and no harm happens to you or your body. My questions are:


How do you focus on focusing when it feels like your body is dying, due to you leaving your body and becoming a conscience energy?

What is your go to strategy in obe's?

Is an obe like a dream where you can forget parts of your experience, but the feeling of the experience remains? Or is as if you are a wake, but in conscience energy form?

Have you and can you travel to places; such as Egypt and go inside the Pyramids or travel to past and future?


I'm very curious about this experience and would love to have this experience one day when I am ready. But, everything I research has vague anwsers or untrustworthy statements. Please help clarify some of these questions, as I would love to one day have the confidence to try this and possibly learn more about myself.

i made it down the stairs then woke up after getting out of body. didn't last long but it did clarify that it is possible, at least for me, idk bout experienced but i know it works.

i feel like the posters above -

i know exactly what you mean hehe..

i experimented quite a bit with these things too - many techniques via trial n error...i think it is not sooo much about focusing on it but really wanting to do it without any doubt..

First you don't feel like you are going to die, you just are you, not any smarter, but still you. Also you are still your body and can send information to the body. For instance when I projected once to find out about an entity, I went violently out of body yet told my body to calm down as it was in panic, it obeyed. Also be prepared not to panic as in this case I found myself in complete blackness. I had to manifest sight and vision, and was in this abandoned building in a city I still no nothing of. Imagine, I was calm outside my body, yet the body was panicked.

Also when things gets dicey my body reacts to my excitement as well as to danger. My wife knows not to waken me if I get too excited. I just tell her that I am out of body and then hopefully bounce back out again. On one occasion, a few weeks ago, I came face to face with this formless monster beside my bed, sending me into panic, causing me trouble getting back into the body. Remember when I said you are still you? Finally my wife got me back and said I just wasn't there and it worried her. Later she pointed to the wall where a large leering Aztec mask hung, my monster of the night before.

This last you may encounter. I have more times than not been controlled by a couple of others whom I cannot explain other than to say they are there to teach and show. They certainly do not show themselves however. In truth, what I am shown is more of the spiritual than the mundane 3 D. we live in. Just stay calm and don't be afraid to ask for help, but maintain your principles and specify higher guidance.

These last two were this last summer and I don't know if you will go this far, I did not of my own volition. One, I was out and an angelic woman floated there and gave a message. Two days later I was out again while meditating and in great pain. This time I was next to such a great loving being of such stature in an area of non created, it shook me to my foundations.

fear not!

the body and the ego will conspire to prevent you from projecting

the body because it fears you won't want to come back

the ego has social programming for disempowering you and it hates what it can't control

Oh Noble-Born, whatsoever terrifying visions thou mayest perceive,
know that they are merely your own thought-forms [projections]
