Can we astral project to the past to fix past traumatic experiences: The Butterfly Effect illusion

In Ashton Kutcher's The Buttery Effect, his character Evan astral projects to the past to change traumatic events. After manipulating the past events, the future becomes worse. Evan returns to a daunting future, reminding him that meddling with the past has an adverse effect on his closest friends and family. Can we astral project to the past to fix traumatic experiences like The Butterfly Effect?

The Butterfly Effect depicts astral projection. We can move about time and space to change traumatic events in our minds. Nonetheless, I doubt there is an absolute way to go back into time to manipulate the past events to improve the future. Evan's mind suppressed his traumatic experiences to protect his sanity. Under severe stressful circumstances, the brain can mentally implode. 

According to Freud, past traumatic events emerge in the mind to repeat again. Many people wish they could have avoided a traumatic event. They want so badly to erase traumatic memories that keep replaying in their minds over-and-over again. Traumatic events in childhood have a profound effect on the state of the mind. The mind attempts to put the traumatic pieces together like a puzzle. However, a person wants to forget the trauma even occurred since they are frightened and ashamed.  

People remember the exact moment. Children replay conflict as molestation, abuse, arguments, and bully encounters in their mind. They can hear arguments between their parents. Adults admit that their painful memories of bullies are rather disturbing. In severe traumatic cases, the pain is so intense that victims leave their mind to escape the stress. The mind reaches a boiling point, and then it snaps into fragments. Hence, the mind shuts down like an overheating car. 

The mind works overtime to protect people from going insane. Therefore, people become afraid of symbols associated with their trauma such as a dark alley, a garage, car, noises, words, and other connections that cause adrenaline to be released throughout the body. The throat closes, breathing increases, and the body goes into a fight and flight. It is a mechanism to allow the mind to absorb the traumatic experience. Such traumatic events keep replaying in the mind to form one memory. Thus, Evan astral projects to the past to understand his painful memories.  

Evan experienced bad memories that hinder his future. His love interest Kayleigh means the world to him. The movie explores the effects of changing past events to improve the future. Evan can never repair the past in the way he plans beforehand - to astral project to the past to prevent these traumatic experiences from unfolding. Such traumatic experiences leave mental gaps that must be filled with memories to eliminate the pain. 

In these traumatic events, we see a burning dog, a M-180 bomb exploding in a mail box, a perverted father filming home videos of young children in the basement, and Kayleigh's bully brother terrorizing the neighborhood. During real life traumatic events, a person may scream and yell until the point in which they probably have an out-of-body experience (OBE) to escape the mind from an insidious act.

Evan exhibited classic signs and symptoms of post traumatic stress disorder. He is confined to a psychiatric institute, which treats the underlying condition of his PTSD. Evan astral projected to the past through using his notebook as a portal, enabling him to change the past to repair his future. We discover that The Butterfly Effect conveys that our past is best left alone.

Can we change the past like in The Butterfly Effect? Will astral time travel help us to reach the past? In my opinion, it is impossible to change past events. However, you can astral project to resolve past traumatic events in your mind. Astral projection is therapeutic to the mind. It will help you deal with painful memories in your mind. The subconscious mind communicates with the conscious mind to stay alert. Replying the traumatic events anger people. A traumatic event impairs the mind and body. An example of a person leaving their mind is depicted in Johnny Depp's character in Secret Window.

There is an element of trauma that impacts the mind. Exposing the mind to anything closely related to traumatic events create fear and shame. The Butterfly Effect is a metaphysical movie that depicts astral time travel. We can only change traumatic events in our minds. Astral projection, OBE and astral time travel enables us to explore our pain from within to improve the future. In essence, we can't astral travel to the past to eliminate painful memories.

Astral Projection Movies

image credit: Squidoo.com


Astral projection is currently a hot topic in movies. The astral horror Insidious increased interest in astral projection. There are hundreds of books that convey the power of astral projection. I assure you that astral projection is a high concept that will surely be integrated into future Hollywood movies.

Astral projection is an effective theme to add depth into horror movies such as possession and paranormal mystery themes. Insidious tapped into the astral projection and possession themes to explore the astral world. Essentially, astral projection movies are building a huge fan following because many people assume out-of-body-experiences are outlandish.

In the astral horror Insidious, a gifted young astral traveler (Dalton) is somehow trapped in the astral world known as "The Further." In an astral sense, "The Further" conveys the dark astral world. Can a person get stuck in the astral world or realm while astral projecting? In my opinion, a person will always find their way back to the real world. Insidious portrays the evil act of astral projection as it relates to ghosts and possessions.

Dalton is trapped in the astral realm. However, his physical body remains in the real world. I don't believe a person can get stuck in the astral world. The subconscious mind will guide a person back to their physical body. Whereas, I never attempted advanced astral projection. I understand what steps are required to astral travel to distant astral worlds. I plan to experiment with astral projection techniques to gain experience with astral time travel.  

In essence, Insidious captured the mystery of astral projection. Many people don't believe that astral projection is possible. Nonetheless, astral projection is as real as your dreams. You will find the same answers as you do when experiencing a lucid dream.

Lucid dreams occur when a person realizes the reality of the dream within their dream. People question the reality of their dream in the same manner as conceived in the Inception movie. Astral projection in 3D would be a cool experience. In the next few years, astral projection and metaphysical themes will emerge as the dominant concept in Hollywood movies. You can count on it.

What is an Out-of-Body-Experience?

image credit: DailyGalaxy.com


An out-of-body-experience is also known as OOBE or OBE. Astral projection is a process in which an astral body separates from the physical body. An out-of-body-experience is a form of astral travel.

An OOBE or OBE enables a personal to travel freely in the astral plane or astral world. It is believed the astral body occupies the physical body as a lifeforce. Once a person dies, the lifeforce is said to leave the physical body through the middle of the forehead.

The two Hollywood movies to have used out-of-body-experiences extremely well are the current astral horror movie Insidious and the popular 1980's A Nightmare on Elm Street horror movies. Ashton Kutcher's Butterfly Effect movie also depicts an out-of-body-experience. Astral projection and an out-of-body-experience have an ancient history behind their practices.

A person who knowingly engages in astral projection usually knows they're temporarily leaving their physical body. From what I've read on astral projection, there is no danger in leaving the physical body.

Nevertheless, some Christians believe a physical body can be possessed once the astral body detaches. Any person can be possessed at any moment in time without warning. An out-of-body-experience can also occur in dreams, also known as lucid dreams. Once a person questions the reality of a dream, they can control the dream world like the movie Inception.

Astral projection and out-of-body-experience both require leaving the physical body through the astral body to astral project into the astral world. Thanks for reading. 

What type of Astral Travel Films do you want?

There are very few astral travel films. Insidious is a stand-alone film about astral projection. What type of astral travel film do you want to see in the near future?

Insidious sparked a huge astral projection fan following. Many web surfers are searching for astral projection, astral travel, astral worlds, metaphysics, and metaphysical content. Out-of-body-experiences are common techniques employed in films such as in A Nightmare on Elm Street astral horror movies and even in Matrix films.

12 Monkeys captures the essence of astral time travel. Bruce Willis is sent back into time to investigate the person responsible for releasing a killer virus that wipes out 99% of the world's population. While Bruce's character never physically leaves the physical world, his astral form transcends the element of astral time travel to operate in a past world which the virus already destroyed. Astral time travel is essentially another form of astral travel.

Source Code also uses the same concept, but instead mind projection astral projects the Jake's character into the mind of another deceased train passenger. Source code shows that one person is capable of changing physical events through influencing astral worlds. Astral time travel and astral projection/mind projection are interesting concepts.

In a way, Sucker Punch conveys the depiction of astral worlds through the mind of Emily Browning's character. Whereas, Emily never physically leaves the asylum, her mind is able to escape the horrors of physical reality through astral projecting into the astral worlds. In the various astral worlds, she defeats evil forces to deliver her plan to fruition. Sucker Punch explores astral projection and the astral worlds.

The 2011 Box Office is moving toward the metaphysics and astral concepts. I find astral travel/astral projection films to be rather interesting. What type of astral films would you like? Thanks for reading. .

Astral Projection in The Butterfly Effect

Directors Eric Bress and Mackye Gruber teamed up to direct The Butterfly effect, a sci-fi thriller that hit theaters back in 2004. Evan (Ashton Kutcher) lived a troublesome childhood that he suppressed to function in society.

However, a special notebook enables Evan to astral project in time to fix his bad children memories. It is something that most people want to do to avoid thinking of such bad memories when stress surfaces in their latter adult years.

Evan focuses on journal pages in a composition book to transcend time and space. Every time Evan changes the past, he astral projects back into the present to experience complications. The symbolism in The Butterfly Effect is that changing the past may have a negative impact on the future.

Astral projection in The Butterfly Effect is viewed as astral time travel. Evan moves about time to fix what he thinks are his worst childhood experiences. Thus, manipulating the element of time affects the people closest to him.

As Evan attempts to change the past, he returns to a future that forgets his true self. His soulmate Kayleigh (Amy Smart) is put smack in the middle of Evan's need to improve her life and his.

Astral projection is essentially the main theme in The Butterfly Effect. Evan astral projects through time throughout the course of the movie. He then realizes he must make a decision to end his astral projection binges to protect the people he loves most.

If you never watched The Butterfly Effect, I recommend you rent the movie at Netflix or maybe check it out out at RedBox. The Butterfly Effect enables moviegoers to watch astral projection in motion.

As an adult, Evan knowingly realizes he is transcending time in his astral form as a child. When Evan astral projects, he has complete control of the astral worlds disguised as past events.

While astral projection is never mentioned in the movie as it is in Insidious, the screenwriters and directors manage to do a fascinating job employing the astral projection concept into action, showing that time is better left unchanged. Thanks for reading.
