Am I A Closet Astral-Projecter?

First off, the day I can consciously astral project it will NOT be into my closet!  Let me get that straight right off the bat!!!

Seriously though. Astral projection is something I know I do at night when I sleep.  To date I have lacked the discipline to practice whatever I need to practice in order to do this safely on my own.  Having said that I have had a few experiences to share:

1. Several years ago my dear friend Basia was holding a workshop over 4 consecutive Sundays.  I was unable to attend the third one since I had to be in New York for business.  I live in L.A.  My plane landed that Sunday and I checked into my hotel.  I sat in the room, looked at my watch, subtracted 3 hours and realized that Basia's workshop was in session.  I sat in meditation with the intention of  visiting he workshop.  Next thing I knew, I was in her living room and “walking” towards the chaise lounge where I sat during the past two sessions.  Once I realized what I had accomplished I got too excited and zapped myself back to the room in New York.  The following week at the 4th session of the workshop Basia was saying that it felt like I was there the past week.  The other ladies all nodded their head in unison.  One of them pointed to the chaise and said she almost sat there but decided to save the seat for me.  She thought it was a weird thought since she walked in knowing I would not be there.  I told my story and we all shared a spine tinging giggle.

2. Another time I went to see Basia for some energy work.  I told her that I wanted to experience astral projection (this was before the exerience above) and she guided me throught the process.  I remember leaving my body through the third eye chakra and traveling past all sorts of energies.  I ended up in a garden like environment and sat on a bench and had a chat with one of my guides.

Anyone else have any experieces?

Namaste,

Mimi

…namaste mimi…my waking life seems to demand a *be here now* consciousness…but I do a lot of *work* at sleep…the visual images of my dreams are filtered symbols and architypes but by doing a soft focus on the *feelings* I can get asence of what  transpired…

   …while I have your attentions here …

               …I am so grateful for All of you that cross this message…thank you all for the work that YOU are doing…zaadz is about linking energies…

Those are excellent stories..Thanks for sharing!  :-)

I know that I have astral projected many times while I'm asleep,but when I was 19 and hospitalized for depression I laid in bed one night and focused on astral traveling. I had read about it in the national enquirer and I so wanted out of there to see my boyfriend and son. The next thing I know I left my body and started floating to the door and just as I reached the door knob I glided back into my body real quick. It freaked me out even more so because I was the hospital where others around me were suffering from delusions and I know I picked up on that quite a bit. In fact that's when the most psychic phenomenon happened in my life,but I wasn't ready to fully understand it. Let's put it this way my first night they had to give me a nerve pill because it was too much for me to be around people that were way beyond being depressed.

The more recent time was a month or so ago where I actually felt my soul glide back into the body like a pro. I've rode on planes with worse landings. LOL

Also now that I understand it more I know when I was younger that I used to watch myself sleep a lot . I guess you could say guarding myself because my dad was very abusive so I was never sure what to expect. I guess this falls in this category definitely an altered state of consciousness and I've found that this happens more often now too. I'm able to see imagery like Will was talking about. I also experienced a visitor  months back rubbing my forehead like a Mother does to soothe her child back to sleep so that I would trust the process and allow the imagery to flow. It felt so real!

Lisha -your comments helped me to understand
myself more , thankyou.
I hadn't put it all togehter -but yes -I used to “sleep”
in that state too and be able to go into my other place
when I was being abused.
Nowdays I can put myself where I want to be for a
time -which is with my loved ones.
They all live far away -but I can “go there” even in a
awake state ( aren't we always)!
