Astral projection

Good evening (or perhaps good morning) beautiful people, I would like to... share something with you.

In the past few days, I synchronistically got in touch with a friend of mine of many, many years. We exchanged a few words and our conversation very quickly turned to esoteric topics, which, by the way I enjoy talking about so very much.

We briefly talked about astrology, which I knew that he's interested in for quite some time, so we talked about my cosmogram and frankly I am still picking my jaw off the floor, but that's perhaps... for another topic.

So we talked a little about some experiences that we had and I realized very quickly that we both experienced an awakening. I'm sure that many, if not all of you experienced something in your life that made you stop living a “random” life, for lack of a better term, and from that moment on you became a lot more... conscious. But that is also not what I want to talk about in this topic, please bare with me😅

So he claims that he was very interested in astral projection since he first read about it ~15 years ago (so did I around that time), and since he managed to do it once, it became easy for him astral project. At one time, as soon as he did leave his body, he felt that something good was going to happen. He described his room was light and vibrant, and a strong light was closing in to his room from the hallway- an orb of light floated in.

He described that the orb eventually "swallowed" him and in the aura of the orb he felt all kinds of positive emotions that are beyond words, but he emphasized the unconditional love that he experienced. He says he had never felt anything even close to that before or after that day, although he felt the "after effect" for next 2 weeks.

So the fear is something I couldn't get past, the pure panic came when I felt any kind of turbulence or something strange while falling asleep and I didn't want to go there. Well, his story literally made me decide, with confidence and excitement, that I will now face my fears, kiss and hug anything that could potentially scare me, and FINALLY explore the astral realm. I can't wait.

There is another part to this story. I also considered the idea of channeling myself, but it was a fleeting thought that I had now and then. So I came across a book on this forum about the channeling process (shout out to Elan Interactions!!😂) and have been doing guided meditations everyday for a week or so.

This Friday I spontaneously woke up at 3 a.m. and thought I'd do one of those youtube meditations before going back to sleep. So I am imagining my guide and what not, and it's time for questions, so I ask him how I can overcome my fear in regards to astral projection - and something amazing happened. My guide grabs my hand, gives me some sort of a ball, closes my hand and hugs me. I didn't imagine this myself, it kind of imagined itself...🤣 I can tell I am onto something.

My initial idea for writing all this was to ask you about your experiences with astral projection. Do you have any stories to tell? Are any of you active travelers? I am very curious!

Thank you very much for your time and I apologize if my English or storytelling is not the best. I am actually quite a shy dude🤓 Something to work on, I guess. Thanks again!! Sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😎 Have a wonderful and fruitful coming week❤️
