Since there appears to be some confusion, let me clarify that the "The Author" is a *completely different* person from me, SphynxCatVP. If I had written this article, it would have my name in the author slot, and the contact area at the bottom wouldn't have a link to someone else's website. :P
Astral Projection is a tedious but worthwhile task. In the act of astral projection,
one relaxes themselves into a deep state of meditation, and wills their spirit,
their astral body, out of their physical one and roam the copycat world known
as the astral plane. The benefits of astral projection are many. Since others
are able to project, you can meet them, though physically they are miles apart.
The meditation you achieve is good for your mind as well as your body. When
meditating on a regular basis, you can lower blood pressure, increase vitality
and possibly longevity.
But, with every positive, there is always a negative to factor in. The number
one negative of astral projection for a psychic vampire is that it's not safe,
not in the least bit safe. When astrally projecting, you are basically taking
on the form of your natural energy (also known as pranic energy). While in this
state, you are VERY vulnerable to others. It is important to realize that not
only psi-vamps are on the astral plane. There are entities that you've probably
never even heard of out there that live only on the astral plane. They think
that Psivamps are delicious and nutritious energy sources, so be warned. Astral
projection is not promoted at this site, but it is still taught and explained
so that you may understand and use it to your liking.
With that out of the way, allow me to explain in more detail the act of astral
projection with step-by-step instructions.
Get into an atmosphere where you can relax and be by yourself. The less noise
the better. Lighting should be comfortable on the eyes. Lie down or sit down
in a position you can remain comfortable in, making sure as to not cross your
hands or legs. I normally find myself in an arm chair with a foot stool.
Once relaxed, begin to meditate. To help you, focus on something that you're
doing, such as breathing. With your eyes closed, imagine the breath you're taking
in through your mouth as clean, pure, healthy air. Then, as you exhale through
your nose, imagine the dark, gloomy, awful air that you're expelling. Picture
it with your mind. Soon enough, you will fall farther and farther into a deeper
state of meditation.
Once in this deep state of meditation, you must embark on one of the harder
parts: projecting. There are many different ways to go about projecting. The
key thing in each, though, is to will yourself to project. Here's two of the
more popular ways;
While in meditation, picture yourself above you. See with your mind. There
above your head is another you. Now begin to imagine what it would look like
to be up there in that body; imagine what it would feel like, what you would
hear. Soon enough you take on those thoughts and pictures to the point where
your spirit, your astral self, is projecting into that body above you.
Again, while in your deep state of meditation, imagine your body vibrating.
This shouldn't be too hard, because when entering the deeper realms of meditation,
your body will naturally begin to tingle throughout. Let this tingling become
stronger, feel your body vibrating. Now feel this vibration becoming in tune
with yourself. You vibrate along with your tingling sensation. Let this feeling
build, and let the vibrations become so strong that you feel as if you are moving
slowly from where you actually are. Do this enough, and you soon find yourself
a good foot or so away. Wa la! You're projected.
Once projected, you may do whatever you please. Roam about or look for a friend,
it's all up to you! But again, and we can't stress this enough here at Psi-Vamp,
BE CAREFUL!!! Being astrally projected is NOT the safest place for Psivamps!
