What is Astral Travel?

Astral Travel

What is Astral travel? Want to escape reality to enter the fantasy world? Astral travel is a process where a person can leave their physical body. They can astral project into astral worlds or astral planes reserved for the astral body. There are techniques to train the mind to astral project to astral worlds outside of the physical space. The common terms used in astral travel are astral project, astral projection, and astral plane.

While many people have experienced astral travel, they are beginning to realize that a human being can use their dreams to astral project into various locations within the physical world. An individual can astral project to visit another person, location, time, and even project into the future. People may fear astral travel because they leave behind their physical body without a soul to keep it safe. For the most part, our minds operate using the subconscious and conscious mind to keep the physical shell safe.

The subconscious mind leads the astral body on astral travel experiences, whereas the conscious mind protects the physical body. Nonetheless, astral travel requires a person to have a strong mind, enabling them to have an out-of-body experience without developing fear. There are several good books written on astral projection, astral travel, and the astral planes. In the present time, astral travel falls under the metaphysical field of study. Astral travel can be viewed as lucid dreaming, which the Inception movie incorporated to steal ideas through controlling a dream.  

There are known cases where a person can astral project to visit another individual in a physical location. However, astral travel is mainly performed entirely through an invisible astral body traveling outside of the physical body. Astral travel is not a process where a person becomes an apparition or a ghost. Astral travel and astral projection enable a person to move across the astral plane. Your astral body can explore the astral worlds to have an experience unlike any in the physical world.

According to Webster (2009), animals are capable of sensing an astral body. For example, dogs usually sense a spirit using their advanced senses. It is scary for many to think that an undetected entity can occupy a home space, but many find it rather interesting to investigate the foundation of animal senses. Even so, some animal senses are more sensitive than others. Thus, astral travel demonstrates that dreams represent our portal to another dimension of space and reality.

In the weeks to come, I plan to evaluate astral travel experiences to test the validity of the process. I have heard others claiming to astral project to the past and the future. Wouldn't it be cool to astral project to the beginning of time? Do you want to witness the creation of the world in outer space? Many people would like to know how everything started to have confirmation in their existence.

As with most things in life, a person must plan their astral travels. You must know exactly the location and the mode of operation you plan to take within the astral plane.There may be times that you have already astral projected from one dream to another. You probably questioned the dream within the dream.

On three past sleep paralysis experiences, I attempted to speak while partially awake. However, my voice was muted. Some experts claim the astral body is not fully set into place yet to control the physical body. When you try to yell out, your body is numb to your command, with only your visual and audio senses remaining functional. Researchers also identify this experience as sleep paralysis.

In the physical world, you can use your five senses - smell, feel, hear, and see, and taste. I will keep an astral and dream log of my future astral travel experiences. Hopefully we can experience what others have in their astral travels.

Astral travel is essentially leaving the physical body to travel with the astral body, also known as astral projecting, astral projection, astral project and an out-of-body experience (OBE). The astral body is capable of traveling to dimensions and astral worlds. You can experience the past, present and the future. Mind power controls all aspects of the conscious and subconscious mind.

In essence, astral travel and lucid dreaming are compatible processes, enabling one to explore an astral world that is depicted in movies such as Sucker Punch, Inception, and Source Code. Many Hollywood studios are releasing metaphysical movies using the astral travel and mind travel concept. Thus, Insidious best portrays the astral projection experience. In retrospect, astral travel is a powerful tool to enable the astral body to explore the astral and physical world.
