Looking to find more information on the how-to of astral projection. Seems pretty basic and frequently asked, I’ll give ya that. However, I seem to be different and am having trouble finding people that experience the same.
I see what i call the dark waters, where the darkness of my eyelids begins to ripple like water in a pond. Then I see orange or silver tracings begin to emerge, can either be pictures/symbols/unknown words. If I push past them without focusing too hard, I end up in the astral. Sometimes, though, I end up in a random location where it feels like I just opened a door and stepped through and now I am somewhere else. This can lead to weird experiences or sometimes to places that are dark and the inhabitants tell me I don’t belong. In the latter, I usually get kicked back to awake.
I am pretty sure at least 7/10 times it is the astral due to the atmosphere and the way my voice reverberates from within me. On the truly weird ones I am not sure. Sometimes it feels like i’m in a waiting room between places. Sometimes it just feels I am in a completely unknown environment.
Trying to find others that understand this phenomena and might have ways of harnessing it or at least better control of it. Hope to hear from y’all soon, but so far it seems so elusive.
There’s a book called the Phase that describes it. I think this is more beginner-focused, so t here’s not too much on controlling it, but there is a bit on relocating yourself if challenged.
read the phase long ago. helped in the beginning with exiting,but well past that now. now, when the moment arises, i’m just out either the moment my vision kicks in or i jump up after. it’s getting to there consciously and not on the random that is an issue. another weird thing, i seem to have it like small events. shit will pop off for 3 days then it’ll be a few weeks-month before the next.
I’ll check out the seminar
The Astral is already everywhere even where you are at now. Its a matter of changing states or what I call “obtaining depth,” and projecting beyond your physical shell. Silver has its own associations; but in astrology Silver is associated with Lunar signs, hence lunar energy of Silvery moon color.
Silver is an important meaning color, because it is indicative of Mirrors, just as Water plays both as a Portal and its own Mirror. I dont know what your intent is (where are you going?), but I got the vague impression you were trying to visit a particular entity by interacting with certain symbols, but you didn’t have the full “address sequence” to be able to visit there, hence you ended up in some seemingly random place.
Think of the Dark Waters in context of what you are doing much like the Portals on the TV Series “Stargate.” You have to dial in the right code, otherwise you end up in some different location.
In my case the tracings are pure gold, or fire. Yes I have it similar but I learned to focus on what passes me by (it’s like a wide road with things running at great speed) if it catches my attention. It’s split second to catch it, doesn’t always work but then I just run past it as well and see where I land. I rarely let go control entirely but there are times when I do, and I usually land in a place that is both unknown and familiar, can’t describe it better, sorry. It’s like being in a place your subconsciousness knows and remembers but consciously you see it as something new. Might be past lives bleeding through, might be things I need to go to next.
This happens to me rarely and when it does, I move on. I don’t feel like being in the place “between” is going to do me any better so I just move, let it be there but choose to ignore it.
Interesting. I can’t remember being told I don’t belong, and all in all most areas in my case are in sort of darkness (but the welcoming kind of darkness, ah shoot, can’t describe it, sorry ^^), might be just as I said above - I “feel” like not staying there so I move on.
That is an idea. I wonder if I can take the tracings when they begin to appear and form them to sigils I know rather then let them autofill passively. I will give this a try next time. Only issue i can see with this is that in the past focusing has seemed to have the opposite effect rather then just being a passenger.
The place between is kind of odd. It changes itself a bit, but I have started recognizing it. (go go journals). It is always a dimly lit room with a fireplace. The walls seem to be red or have a red hue. The items in the room and the dimensions seem to fluctuate between being very small square to an elongated room. The time before i was there, the walls were lined with tvs that showed images of other places/dreams. The last time it was empty outside a portrait of a woman that my mind said was Lilith. Things always being slightly different in the astral seems kinda normal to me now a days though.
I can probably only count 8-9 times i’ve been in the “you don’t belong here” situation with denizens. Every time it has happened it has been a very quick return to my body and full awake though
